Controversy Sells PART 3 !!! : FAREWELL TO THE FLESH (AMBER ROSE EDITION)

KING-MAG TV: AMBER ROSE from Billet Video Studios on Vimeo.


Here it is again, the controversy sells post being brought back from the dead. Who better to breathe life back into it than the person who it started with on BlvdAve ??? You got it right, miss Amber Rose !! By now I'm sure you all have seen the infamous new explicit pics of Amber Rose. But the BlvdAve team had to put our own stamp on it. So not only will you see the explicit photos, we're giving you guys a video with some background music ! LMAO Courtesy of Tazo C ( @legendkillerzo). But as it is with all stories, we believe in telling both sides of the story. Here's Amber Rose's response to these pics from her twitter page:


No matter what I go thru or how embarrassed I am I have a man that Loves me & has my back thru everything. @RealWizKhalifa thank u.  I was gonna wait until my radio show to address this but I want to say this now. I trusted someone that worked 4 me & allowed them to use my laptop a million times, I caught this person sending my pics to themselves and I fired this person immediately. Wiz & I & both of our families have known about this for 2 months now. We tried to prepare ourselves for this day. Those pictures r 2 1/2 years old just sitting in my computer. I’m really hurt & embarr#!@%*#ed because I have so many young girls that look up to me. I would never put those pics out of myself. The company that I was working with no longer wants to work with me because of these pics and that prevents me from getting money to take care of my family. Its a messed up situation when someone so evil comes into ur life and tries to destroy it. I know I’m not the only girl in the world that has taken pics like that but they were very private. I’m sorry for letting my young Rosebuds down. Pls understand this was a result of trusting a person that didn’t deserve my trust. I have cried for the past 2 days but I know this to shall p#!@%*#. Thank u for all of ur support.




So without further ado, heres Ms. Amber in all of her glory !!!

Game News: Official Batman: Arkham City Box Art

 

It looks like we've now received the final and official art for Batman: Arkham City directly from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment. The game will be available beginning Oct. 18 in North America for the Xbox 360, Windows PC and PlayStation 3.

Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City – five times larger than the game world in Batman: Arkham Asylum – and the new maximum security "home" for all of Gotham City's thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand-new story that draws together a new, all-star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

Here's a couple of trailers for the game as well:

Week In Sports: NFL

What's up my Ave, back again for a quick look at what happened this week in sports. In the wake of the NBA season things have slowed down quite a bit as far as buzz in the NBA and NFL but the stories are still pumping.

So let's take a look at some of the more notable stories in sports this week.

BlvdAve & Your Sports 1st: This Week in Sports: NFL

T.O.'s Last Stand/ NFL Talks.... Again

Terrell Owens

Terrell Owens playing day's weren't expected by most to end well.

They just didn't expect it to end quite like this.

Recent news that Owens suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament more than likely will serve as the proverbial death knell. ESPN reported that Owens won’t be able to return until at least November. The agent for T.O. Drew Rosenhaus reported Tuesday that the receiver had surgery to repair a torn ACL this offseason, but said his client will be ready for the 2011 season and is not considering retirement.

The last boo-hoo for T.O.?

 "He's many, many months into his recovery now. He's doing fantastic," Rosenhaus told reporters. Rosenhaus stated Dr. James Andrews, who performed the surgery on Owens, was confident the 37-year-old receiver had a chance to play as soon as August.

 Rosenhaus also called the speculation that this is it for Terrell "non-sense"


"He is a legendary healer. He comes back from injury faster than anybody I've ever seen," Rosenhaus said.

 He also would not speculate on the origin of the injury, although it has been reported that Owens suffered the injury during a taping for a VH1 television show. Although opposing sources claim that he suffered the injuries during a personal workout.

Whatever the matter, looks like T.O. was lucky enough to get a head-start on his next endeavor after football.

Hopefully for Owens it's not sooner than later.





NFL Talks

The NFL owners and NFL Players Association met again on Monday in Minneapolis, Minnesota with hopes of potentially striking a deal. And if you don't know before you read this blog...... There still is no deal.

According to reports, the only two that showed up to the meeting were NFL commisioner Roger Goodell and NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith. The two sat and had a one-on-one without any owners or players in the room.

Still at odds.

For the past couple of weeks the talks have been deemed "complex" and "complicated" by owner Roger Goodell, however both sides are aware that a deal needs to come together in the near future, in order to preserve team training camps and the preseason. Bear Down.

One topic at the top of the list is the rookie wage scale. Owners have been adimant about reducing the value of the a 1st rounder's rookie contract. However, some players are still saying that the rookies entering the league need to get these big money contracts.

Last year's No. 1 overall draft pick Sam Bradford received about $50 million guaranteed in his rookie deal, and the owners have long looked to drastically mark down those type of price tags.

Another issue on the table is revenue sharing, which boils down to owner's and player's not being able to split a 9.3 billion dollar pot.

The key topic unquestionably is how to split revenues in the future. The NFL is a $9.3 billion industry, with projections such revenues will increase substantially soon when broadcast contracts come up for renewal. For the 2010 season, the NFL set TV ratings records.

If you had a choice between T.O. being healthy and the NFL coming to terms, which one would you pick?!





BlvdAve Note: Good news for Chicago Bears fans, Bears TE Greg Olsen told the "Waddle & Silvy" show on Monday that Jay Cutler looked great during throw arounds and that we should not expect his injury from the NFC Championship game to affect him at all this season.

"I am not a doctor [but] yeah, he looks fine," Olsen said Monday on "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "He looks completely normal to all of us. I think he feels fine so I don't think there is any lingering effects from anything."

He also expects the Bear's offense to play a huge role this season.


"For awhile here we've been the stepchild," Olsen said. "The offense has always played second fiddle, deservingly so because we've had some of the top defenses and top defensive players in league history. But we feel like we have a good core nucleus of young offensive players and Jay being right up there as the guy. With Matt [Forte] and our receivers, Earl [Bennett], Johnny [Knox] and Devin [Hester], I think we've got a lot of guys who are ready to have a little bit of consistency."


Let's hope so...
