Oprah Winfrey has purchased her “bestfriend for life”, Gayle King a $7.1 million full-floor sky palace atop the 36th floor building at 207 E. 57th St. This penthouse has three bedrooms, 3 1/2 baths, a large living room/dining area, and a 768 square foot wraparound terrace. Apparently, the new space was purchased under a company called Sophie’s Penthouse LLC; weirdly enough is her deceased dog name Sophie.

All I want to know does Oprah need any new friends? Staff? A Proofreader? Something.

TI, “Mr. Grand Hustle” has been under house arrest in Atlanta since last year awaiting trial on weapons charges. On Thursday (March 20), a federal magistrate judge has allowed TI to leave his home to attend Easter services at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church on Sunday from 8:30 am to 2:00 pm.

Diddy has completed his deposition in a $130 million lawsuit filed against him in connection to the 1999 shooting outside of a New York nightclub. Shyne, former Bad Boy rapper has also been named in this suit is currently serving a ten year sentence after being found guilty of assault, reckless endangerment and gun possession following the shooting.

Natania Reuben, the victim was shot in the face at the incident at Club New York. In this civil action Reuben is seeking damages for her injuries.

At this point, the judge is left to determine if Shyne acted alone or did he act under the direction of the Bad Boy “organization”, I use that term loosely, before the case goes to trial. If both Shyne and Diddy are required to stand trial this will be a jury trial and their future will be in the hands of the jury. Also, there is a possiblity that Shyne may have to testify about the incident.

Oprah has been slapped with two lawsuits in one week. The first suit is by an audience member, Orit Greenberg who seeking at least $50,000 in medical fees and other damages because she says has suffered “severe and permanent injuries”. The second suite was filed by a Boston mother who alleges that she was the “brain” behind Oprah’s new television show, Oprah Big Give and has not received any credit or financial compensation for her idea. Did this lady really expect a voluntary compensation for her idea?
