Don Imus apologized for calling the Rutgers University women's basketball team "nappy headed hos" on his radio show.

– Chris Lighty—manager of hip-hop stars like 50 Cent, Diddy, and Busta Rhymes—has some unusual ideas for upcoming product tie-ins, including vitamin supplements and a condom line for 50 Cent and a deal with Chapstick for LL Cool J, who's "known for licking his lips."

– Refusing to surrender to U.S. marshals out to arrest him on his recent contempt citation, Girls Gone Wild douchebag Joe Francis issued this statement about U.S. District Judge Richard Smoak: "It is a case of a judge gone wild." Ooh, burn!
