MTV News: Tim/Missy Update
2007-09-27 15:34:00 MTV News Reports:Another friend Tim has studio visions for is Missy Elliott. He maintains that he will definitely be producing on her next album, just not the entire album."I probably won't do the whole thing 'cause I gotta get my own thing up and poppin'," he said, referring to his Mosley Music Group label. "I can't make [Missy's recording home] Atlantic [Records] money. Nothing personal. We had a time and a crazy run, but I gotta get my own indie label poppin'. I couldn't do the whole thing. I had to do partial and try to oversee it the best way I can for her. But I can't make Atlantic a ton of money and leave Mosley Music with nothing. That don't make logical sense. Missy is my sister, but I got a family: Nelly [Furtado], Keri [Hilson], One Republic. If I don't function, then they don't function and they can't get their careers off. I understand where Tim is coming from, but ouch! And um.. he sure made JIVE a lot of money with Justin Timberlake. At least their working... More About: Update

Beth Ditto.. Huge Fan!
2007-07-30 03:40:00 And from a past interview..Missy Elliott came along and just had such a creative impact; musically, choreographically... there was just so much going on. It was so cutting-edge – and funny. ----BETH DITTO [Gossip Folks: Glu Magazine]Ditto came across a review of a Missy Elliott show in the influential rag New Music Express. The review didn't comment on Missy Misdemeanor's music; instead, it suggested that the hip-hop diva should shed some pounds."When Beth was on stage, she got the crowd revved up as usual," Dougher recalls. "Then she asked, 'Hey, is anyone from NME here?' There were some hoots and hollers. Then she says ''Cause I read what you wrote about Missy Elliot, and I wanted to say fuck all y'all.' She then proceeded to strip down to bra, fishnets and heels. Needless to say, the crowd went crazy for it. It was beautiful to see Beth reject it all and still emerge triumphant."

When Beth Attacks
2007-07-30 02:01:00 Gay favorite The Gossip's Beth Ditto has thrown down the gauntlet when it comes to losing weight to be successful and evokes the case of our girl Missy Elliott to "prove her point"."She (Miss Elliott) lost weight! For health. Well it wasn't like she was gonna fall over dead! But I can understand why it would be so f**king hard for her to be her size (success-wise) and her weight."I never, ever blame the woman in the position for feeling like she needs to change herself; I blame people who are in power and prevent them for doing what they love to do or what they're f**king amazing at, like Missy Elliott, because of the way they look. It's a f**king joke."Missy's camp has issued no statement, but I can imagine they will in the near future. In the past, Missy has said she had to lose weight due to complications with hyper tension.Gossip Folks:DITTO SLAMS MUSIC INDUSTRY BOSSES FOR ELLIOTT WEIGHT LOSS More About: Attacks , Tacks , Attack , Atta
