The Jackson Pepsi Commercials

With the Michael Jackson memorial coming up there has been a lot of Michael Marathons, featuring videos, movies, and controversies. I happened to be watching the Jacksons the American Dream Movie and saw the part where his hair caught on fire while Mike was filming a Pepsi commercial. Me being the curious person I'am decided to see if the commercial had been filmed and it had been a series of them and below are two.

Notice when he comes out of the fire that's how his hair caught on fire.

Hey isn't that Carlton from the Fresh Prince, hmm he even had moves when he was younger. Aww also nice way how Pepsi remixed Billie Jean.

It is an LED flash built-into a clutch purse, when the device detects a camera flash it will send out a brighter flash to blind the camera.
Now Celebrities can't be harassed by paparazzi.

This shit is sick!!!

The right way to preserve your shoes!


I thought using toothpaste kept them fresh well that's for white shoes. Do not listen to my methods and instead Watch as Complex’s Lifestyle Editor and sneaker kingpin Bradley Carbone shows this instructional video on how to clean your kicks the right way.

Lil Wayne's Mystery Supra's


Last year at the 2008 Grammy's Kanye came on the stage with an all black high top Nike that brought a buzz to sneaker heads everywhere. Eventually the buzz became true and those sneakerheads were introduced to the Air Yeezy's which were released in small quantities. Well this year another addition to that hype that has sneakerheads talking are the sliver, white, & glittery Supra's Wayne debuted at the B.E.T Awards. Sneakerheads are wondering are they coming out or did Supra send them to Wayne. The answer to both those questions are, NO.

Sources at Supra say they had no idea where the customs came from, which means Wayne had them made on his own. People are guessing that one of his Young Money weed carriers hooked up with the same person who customizes Paris Hilton’s sidekicks. See more shots of the shoes below, and if you’re feeling them, hit up the comments and try to persuade Supra to release the bedazzler…

Drake - "Best I Ever Had


Good Song, Great Women, But horrible video concept. Kanye kinda tweeked on this video but I still understand where he was trying to get at.

Eminem: Beautiful


Best song off of Relapse shows that Em is trying to clean up and wants people to stop judging him.

FAKE ASS SHOES


BACK IN THE DAY WHEN I WAS A LIL SHORTY, THE ONLY PAIR OF SHOES I LOVED TO WEAR WERE JORDANS. I ROCKED 12's, 13's, & 15's. BUT AFTER A INCIDENT INVOLVING MUD AND A FRESH PAIR OF 16'S MY MOM NEVER BOUGHT ME A PAIR OF JORDANS TILL MY FRESHMAN YEAR AND THOSE WERE THE DUB-ZEROS. AFTER NOT WEARING JORDANS FOR A FEW YEARS I STOPPED CARING A ND REALLY DIDN'T PAY ATTENTION TO THEM EXCEPT FOR WHEN MY SISTER BOUGHT SOME AND I STOLE HERS SOMETIMES (WE WORE THE SAME SIZE NOT TO LONG AGO 5 AND 6). BUT BY THE TIME I GOT TO HIGH SCHOOL I REALLY DIDNT WANT JORDANS I JUST WANTED THEM TO STUNT AND I COULDN'T CAUSE EVERYONE HAD THEM REAL AND FAKE. BOUT MY SOPHOMORE YEAR I WAS PUT ON TO FAKE ASS JORDANS. MY GUY HAD CAME TO SKOOL WITH SOME SEE THRU 7'S AND I'M LOOKING LIKE THESE RAW BUT AT THAT MOMENT THE GUYS SURROUNDED HIM AND FRIED HIS ASS MAKING HIM SELL THE SHOES TO SOMEONE WHO THOUGHT THEY WERE REAL. BUT EVER SINCE THAT DAY EVERYWHERE I GO I SEE FAKE JORDANS EVERYWHERE. RANGING FROM 8 FUSIONS, TO 12 FUSIONS, TO 6 RINGS, TO EVEN THE COUNTDOWN PACKAGES. AT THE 2008 DUNKXCHANGE I LEARNED FROM DAVE JEFF OF PHLI CHICAGO THAT WHEN YOU SEE FAKE SHOE ESPECIALLY FAKE JORDANS YOUR SUPPOSE TO EXPOSE THEM AND CALL THEN OUT AND THAT'S WHAT I AM ABOUT TO DO. I LIKE DOWNLOAD MUSIC ALOT!!!! AND IT IS THIS MIXTAPE SERIES CALLED BIGGY JIGGY MIXTAPES AND THEY SHOW EXCLUSIVE TUNES HEARD NOWHERE ELSE. SO ON EVERY ALBUM COVER THEY SHOW A WEBSITE CALLED THEM ON BLAST BUT I HAD TO CAUSE THAT SHIT IS RIDICULOUS. LIKE I ALWAYS SAY IF YOU CAN SPEND 100 ON THE KNOCK OFFS YOU MIGHT AS WELL BUY THE REAL SHIT TO SAVE SOME EMBARRASSMENT. BELOW ARE PICS OF THE FAKES THEM SELFS. PARENTAL ADVISORY MAY BE ADVISE!!!!
