How many kids and baby mamas does Lil Wayne have?

Wayne revealed that it was his mother who actually suggested that he quit school and get his GED after she found out he was carrying a gun in his backpack for protection.

Re-homing trend: Parents drop off adopted children with new parents they find online
Reuters and NBC News are investigating a disturbing trend: American parents search online for new parents for the children they adopted from other countries. When some parents clash with the new child from another culture they’ve brought to live with them, they put up “advertisements” for the children online for prospective parents to take them off their hands. Often the ads are brutally honest, describing the worst attributes of the children, or saying that they “hate” them. As it turns out, the type of people looking to take in unwanted children in an unvetted process outside the regulated system, usually don’t have the children’s best interests at heart. But as long as the right document is drawn up and signed, it’s legal, and not considered child trafficking because no money is exchanged.

Did You Know? | Lady GaGa | Lüc Carl | Music | Throwback
Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” was about chasing after ex-boyfriend Luc Carl
“Paparazzi” is one of my favorite Lady Gaga songs, and a small part of why of I like it (I mostly just like it because it’s a fun song) is because of it’s comment on fame, love, and paparazzi and tabloid culture. It could be argued that it’s from the point of view of the paparazzi, or the star, or a that it switches at some point, but for me it always seems to almost be both at the same time. Of course, all of that is in the song, but it turns out the true heart of the song, the true inspiration is Lady Gaga’s unrequited love for ex-boyfriend Luc Carl.
