Since the media circus began for ‘Holiday’ hitmaker Madonna‘s 12th LP ‘M.D.N.A’, her claws have been out for the Mother Monster Lady Gaga.  Calling the young performer ‘reductive’ in a now famous interview, Madge’s copycat accusations against the ’Poker Face’ performer are by no means new and join a list of other stars (see: Grace Jones) and fans who co-sign the claim.  In a hilarious parody, comedian Charlie Hides takes a look into the pop starlets’ relationship – one that, according to him, sees Gaga incessantly taunting the Pop Veteran.  Hosted on his hit Youtube channel CharlieHidesTV, this viral video hosts a few other diva favorites.

Six years ago, the shock axe of TV host Star Jones from The View caused ripples. From the suddenness of the cull, to the spats which would arise between Jones and her former co-hosts, drama characterised the air surrounding her departure.

Hence, surprised were many when the 49 year old paid a visit to her old stomping grounds today.

“A new couch. You’ve got two black girls. Sherri and I are not the same person. Elisabeth had more children. Joy got married!”, Jones exclaimed after being welcomed back to the show which made her a household name.

Anchor Barbara Walters began to recount what happened in 2006, with Jones interjecting with: “Are we really going to go here, Barbara? Do we care at this point?! I honestly don’t.”

Walter insisted, saying “people ask us all the time”, going on to remind Jones that her contract had not been renewed and she surprised her co-stars by saying she was leaving. “It was ugly. … It was a bad emotional time,” Jones replied, adding, “I made the decision that I wanted to go out on my own terms.”

The mood would quickly lightened, as the ladies played catch up, and discussed Jones’ new VH1 venture, which see her book ‘Satan’s Sisters’ turned into a TV movie. Peep the footage above…

As harsh as this may sound, most Femcees just aren’t that intelligent.

Indeed, though it remains a tough pill to swallow, the reason most female Rappers fall short of the glory oft enjoyed by their male counterparts has very little to do with ‘industry politics’ , but a universal flaw that stops them in their tracks even if they do catch label interest.

Shortsightedness.

For, whether it’s their inability to see beyond trivial feuds with fellow Femcees or just plain laziness, most lady lyricists don’t realize that they are a minority, and that as a minority their work ethic, business acumen and ambition has to be head and shoulders above the rest if they are to truly  succeed.

So, in recognition of Nicki Minaj‘s work ethic, business acumen and ambition, Billboard have honored her career with a spot on their list of ‘29 Black Music Milestones’.
