NEWS:Mavado To Star In Shottas Sequel
Dancehall star Mavado will be making his acting debut in the upcoming film Shottas 2, the sequel to the 2002 hit Jamaican movie Shottas.
The We The Best Music singjay will co-star with Ky-Mani Marley, who played the role as the notorious Biggs.
Shottas director Cess Silvera said filming for the movie kicks off in June in Jamaica and overseas.
According to Mavado’s manager, Julian Jones-Griffith, several big name rappers were vying for the role, including Lil’ Wayne and Chris Brown, but Silvera cast Mavado, who he believes fits the role.
“Cess Silvera reached out to me saying he has written a part for Shottas 2 that would be perfect for Mavado,” Griffiths said. “It’s a leading role and he believes Mavado can bring the realism and credibility to do the character justice. Cess thinks Mavado is the only person to really bring it to life and make it believable.”
Mavado said he could not pass up on the offer to cast in the films sequel.
“I’ve had a few offers for movies that we have turned down, but I couldn’t pass on being a part of Shottas 2,” Mavado said. “Just like everyone else I am a huge fan of the first movie so it’s an honour to be a part of the production. When my manager told me Cess reached out to him I felt blessed. Acting is another way for me to express myself as an artiste so I’m really looking forward to it and will do my best to bring the character to life and make people believe in it. Shottas is such an iconic movie and brand so to be a part of the second one is going to be a great part of my legacy as an artiste.”
Shottas, which debut on the big screen in 2002, tells a story of two young men, Wayne and Biggs, who grew up in a tough Kingston inner-city community. The two later grew up to be major crime players in Kingston and Miami.
Dancehall veteran Spragga Benz played Wayne, while Ky-Mani Marley brought Biggs to life.
While not revealing his role, Mavado said he will be working hard to bring his character to life on the big screen.
“Fans can expect what they always get from me – keeping it real. The character I am playing is gritty as you would expect so I will be bringing it to life as real as I know how,” he said.
Shottas 2 is set to debut in the summer of 2013.

MONEY TALK: The REAL Young Money
Okay don't get excited by the title, this has nothing to do with Drake or Li'l Wayne. The video above is from Forbes and it gives you a look at some of the world's billionaires under 40. That's right. Actually most of these guys are in their mid 30s and a few of them, namely the Facebook crew, are actually not quite 30 yet!
This is pure inspiration to anyone under 40 (most of you reading this probably are). Whether you rap, sing, make rap beats (or any genre), write software, write books/articles/poetry or you're just a good salesman and an all around hustler, recognize that these guys all had ideas and dreams and through whatever means (foul or otherwise) did not give up until those dreams were reality.
So if you are a rapper or singer, don't hesitate to invest in yourself. Save some cash , buy some beats online (they are quite affordable), pay for studio time and get serious with your career. If you have any other type of skill, the time is now to stop relying on handouts, charity or a paycheck. Get up and get yours!

Husband Watching Porn Online Finds 11 Films Starring His Wife
An Egyptian man who went online to watch a porno film for the first time got the shock of his life when he found that the woman in the film was his own wife. You have to keep reading to find out what his wife had to say. Click below to read the rest of the story.
The man, identified as Ramadan, instantly collapsed in disbelief on the floor at an internet shop before coming round and rushing home to face his unfaithful wife.
The woman first denied his allegations and started to swear at him, prompting her husband to face her with the film.
Unable to deny it any more, she confessed to have betrayed him with her pre-marriage boy friend, telling him she had never loved him although they had four children during their 16-year marriage.
“I found 11 films showing my wife in indecent scenes with her lover….it was the first time I watched a porno film and I did this just out of curiosity,” Ramadan told Egyptian newspapers at his house in the northeastern province of Dakhalia.
“She first denied it and accused me of being insane before I faced her with the films…she then confessed to be still in love with her boyfriend, saying he is as young as her and that I am an old man.”
Ramadan said he had been happy during his marriage life until he logged on to that website. Newspapers did not say whether he decided to divorce her.

NEWS: Delonte West Fined $25k For Sticking HIs Finger In Gordon Hayward's Ear
Via David Locke, who is the radio voice of the Utah Jazz, Delonte West has been fined $25,000 for sticking his finger in Gordon Hayward’s ear during Monday’s triple-overtime Dallas-Utah game.
West admitted after the game that he crossed the line.
“I went over the line,” West said. “I saw some lint in his hair, and I wanted to get it out for him. Seriously, we were like two warriors out there. But I forgot the NBA is a gentlemen’s game. They want us to battle and scrap, but they want us to do it nicely.”
Hayward said he “wanted to fight” West for the stunt. Mavs coach Rick Carlisle was not happy about West’s move.
“I made it clear to him that that’s unacceptable,” Carlisle said Wednesday. “He’s a competitive guy. But your competitiveness has to manifest in the right way. By and large, he’s had a tremendous year for us. And he’s done the right things. I see that as an isolated incident and I don’t see it happening again.”
