British rapper DAPPY has revealed he personally leaked an explicit nude photo of himself on the internet in a bid to prove he is a bigger man than CHRIS BROWN.
A full-frontal naked photo of Brown, showing the singer standing in front of a mirror, emerged online earlier this year (11). He quickly dismissed speculation he published the snap himself to gain publicity ahead of his album launch, insisting the photo was sent to a girl.
Dappy faced his own saucy snap scandal when a photo showing him fully nude recently entered the public domain, but the N-Dubz star is less shy about admitting he released the image himself.
He tells Britain’s Daily Mirror, â��Man, Iâ��ve got loads of women fans now. I have to tell â��em, â��Ease up, women, ease up.â�� â��I saw Chris Brown had done a naked picture and he has a teeny-weeny little thing. So I thought to myself, â��I can do that too, man. And mine ainâ��t tiny.â�� â��But listen (my girlfriend) Kaye knows I love her to death and she also knows thereâ��s an image to all this. Iâ��ve done mistakes to her (sic) and sheâ��s been strong enough to take me back. And to show her my love back, Iâ��ve just bought her a big massive diamond ring. Sheâ��s been loyal to me - thatâ��s why I donâ��t ever wanna let her go.â�� Dappy bought his girlfriend Kate Vassell, the mother of his two children, an eternity ring earlier this month (Sep11).

In a post on her Twitter.com page, the singer/actress compares the fight to 1992 animated film FernGully: The Last Rainforest and urges fans to spread the word about the Phillip Island situation.

Rapper T.I. has been given a boost following his release from prison with the news sales of his clothing line shot up while he was behind bars.
The hip-hop star is currently staying in a halfway house after serving 10 months of an 11-month sentence for probation violation.
But the bad press surrounding his incarceration didn’t stop fans buying items from his AKOO fashion line, which saw a 25 per cent increase in profitability over the last 12 months.
A representative for the company tells TMZ.com that such a surge in sales has not been seen since the star appeared in reality TV show Road to Redemption in 2009.
The range includes hooded tops, jeans, sweatshirts and shirts and prices range from $20 (£12.50) to $220 (£137).

RYAN GOSLING is already considering retiring from acting, because he can’t stand the idea of dedicating his life to just one profession.
The Notebook star began his showbiz career at the age of 12, as a ‘Mouseketeer’ on The Mickey Mouse Club, before landing critical acclaim for his serious roles in art-house films.
He is now gaining a reputation as one of Hollywood’s top stars thanks to a string of high-profile parts, but Gosling is adamant he will soon grow tired of acting and wants to carve out a new career.
He tells Britain’s The Independent, "I’ve been doing this since I was 12… I don’t want to act much longer; I can’t do one thing my whole life. I know there are only so many characters I’ll be able to play. It will be over whenever the inspiration dries up."

HUGH JACKMAN thrilled wrestling fans by jumping into the ring to throw a punch at celebrated fighter DOPLH ZIGGLER while guest starring on the Raw SuperShow on Monday (19Sep11).
The X-Men hunk jetted to Cleveland, Ohio to host the fight night and he handpicked a fighter to go up against U.S. reigning champion Ziggler.

Jackman ultimately threw his support behind "underdog" Zack Ryder, and things eventually got heated, prompting the actor to step under the ropes and knock Ziggler down with a right-handed punch.
Ryder miraculously went on to defeat Ziggler at the event.
The actor was at the fight night to promote his new robot boxing film Real Steel.

The DeBarge singer reveals he once considered jumping to his death from the roof of the King of Pop’s home - but calm Jackson talked him down.
Appearing on U.S. TV show Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers, the R&B star recalls, "I was going to jump and everyone was losing it… He was the only one not freaking out! "He seemed to be familiar with my pain… He knew I needed someone to talk to, so he was that ear. We just talked all night and I forgot that I was even on the roof and that I was going to jump."

PARIS HILTON can move on from her cocaine-related legal woes after going above and beyond her court order and logging 228 hours of community service.
The reality TV star was arrested in Las Vegas in August, 2010 after a small bag of white powder fell out of her purse in front of a police officer during a traffic stop, and she was later charged with felony drug possession when the substance was confirmed as cocaine.
Hilton struck a deal with prosecutors last September (10) and pleaded guilty to two misdemeanour charges of drug possession and obstructing an officer, and was ordered to complete 200 hours of community service, pay $2,000 (£1,250) in fines, and attend an "intensive" substance abuse programme.
And the socialite took her sentencing seriously - on Tuesday (20Sep11) Hilton wowed a Sin City judge at a progress report hearing by submitting her volunteer log, which included an extra 28 hours of work, according to TMZ.com.

Country singer CHELY WRIGHT, hip-hop mogul RUSSELL SIMMONS and author SALMAN RUSHDIE have been left appalled after Georgia authorities denied clemency to a Death Row prisoner whose murder case lacks solid evidence linking him to the crime.
A slew of celebrities have been campaigning on behalf of Troy Davis, who was convicted in 1991 of killing a police officer two years earlier. The guilty verdict caused controversy because authorities in Georgia have never found a murder weapon or unearthed physical evidence to connect him to the murder.
Davis’ lawyers launched a last-ditch plea for clemency, but the bid was rejected by officials at the Georgia State Board of Pardons on Tuesday (20Sep11) and he will be executed by lethal injection on Wednesday (21Sep11).
A number of Davis’ star supporters have taken to Twitter.com to express their shock and outrage at the ruling.
Wright writes, "I am 100 per cent, without a doubt, opposed to capital punishment. Not only is there a chance of executing the innocent, I think it is morally wrong." Simmons adds, "Clemency denied for troy davis. Horrible news…", while Rushdie insists, "If Troy Davis is executed in Georgia it will be a crime." Other outspoken stars who have ‘tweeted’ their support for Davis recently include Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson and musicians Yoko Ono, Usher and John Legend.

RYAN GOSLING left his DRIVE director NICOLAS WINDING REFN "screaming for his life" after tricking him onto one of the scariest rides at Disneyland.
The filmmaker’s new action movie stars Gosling as a Hollywood stunt driver, but behind the scenes Winding Refn is actually easily spooked and terrified of fast cars.
So Gosling decided to put Winding Refn’s nerves to the test by inviting him onto the Tower of Terror ride, which features a sudden drop in an elevator, at the Disney theme park in California.
Gosling tells NYMag.com, "His family was in town and they wanted to go to Disneyland and I love Disneyland, so I took them. Nicolas is afraid of going fast in a car and… he’s also afraid of rides.
"So I tried to trick him into going on some rides at Disneyland. Basically I tried to trick him into going on the Tower of Terror because I convinced him that the elevator took you up to the ride, so once you got to the top, you could get out of the elevator and we would get on the ride and he would just wait up top. But the elevator is the ride. That’s the catch. So I took him on. And there’s a picture of him screaming for his life… When it was over, all he could say for two hours was, ‘I can’t feel my legs.’" But the terrifying incident served a purpose - Gosling reveals Winding Refn used their Disneyland outing as inspiration when he began shooting Drive.
He adds, "I’m told by him that he used that sense memory for the film. He used that adrenaline rush that he got from the ride and channelled it into the movie."

Actor TOM SIZEMORE is protesting his innocence after he was arrested on an outstanding battery warrant, insisting he’s done nothing wrong.
The Saving Private Ryan star received a visit from Los Angeles police in the early hours of Tuesday (20Sep11) after an acquaintance reportedly stole a car and claimed he was living at Sizemore’s apartment.
But when cops ran a check on the actor’s driving licence, they discovered Sizemore was a wanted man for a 2009 misdemeanour for spousal battery and he was taken into custody too.
However, the actor, who was held on $26,000 (£17,330) bail, believes he was arrested in error - because he’s already paid his dues for his prior troubles.
He tells TMZ.com there must have been a clerical mistake in court because the hours he completed as part of his community service sentence have yet to be officially logged, causing his name to come up on authorities’ ‘wanted’ list.

KIRSTIE ALLEY is preparing to take legal action against U.S. tabloid editors after discovering they are publishing an article alleging her massive weight loss is the result of an eating disorder.
The former Cheers star, who has struggled with weight issues for years, has been shedding the pounds ever since she was forced to shape up as a contestant on U.S. TV show Dancing With the Stars earlier this year (11).
She recently claimed to have lost an impressive 100 pounds (45.5 kilograms) since March (11) after adopting a new healthy diet and strict exercise regime, and Alley showed off her new slim physique when she walked the runway at an event for New York Fashion Week last week (13Sep11).
Her drastic new look has prompted speculation about exactly how she managed to drop down to a U.S. clothing size six - and according to Alley, reporters at the National Enquirer are claiming in an upcoming article that she’s become bulimic, forcing herself to vomit after every meal.
But the actress has slammed the allegations and she has vowed to take the Enquirer to court.
In a series of posts on her Twitter.com blog, she writes, "Soo.. heard that the Enquirer is running with a story that Im bulemic (sic)…lol..JEEZ!!! ’sources’ JEEZ.. never hurled (threw up) a meal in my life..JEEZ…
"Im REALLY commited (sic) (to her diet) and strong willed…If I was bulemic I can assure U I would be a size zero… I smell a big ole lawsuit.. do U?? …Enquirer, Im coming for u this time..get ready!!" And she’s accused Enquirer editors of reckless reporting on such a serious topic: "Bulemmia (sic), is a serious sitiation (sic) not to be taken lightly.. it can cause death..this accusation is degrading 2 those who from suffer it (sic)."

Rapper 50 CENT is facing a lawsuit from a woman who alleges she was assaulted by one of the star’s associates at his mansion two years ago.
Vasti Ortiz has filed legal papers at the Superior Court of Hartford, Connecticut against the hip-hop star, real name Curtis Jackson, as well as his G-Unit Films and Television company.
Ortiz claims she was invited to Jackson’s property one evening in August, 2009, when she met his employee Dwayne McKenzie, who she alleges made "awkward sexual requests" for oral sex.
She then tried to leave the house, but she alleges McKenzie ordered a woman named Michelle Krzykowski to attack her while he pinned her down.
Ortiz claims she managed to flee the house after a struggle and was admitted to a nearby hospital to clean up a large gash on her head.
Now Ortiz is accusing Jackson of being responsible for the alleged incident because he failed to sufficiently carry out a "proper investigation into Dwayne McKenzie’s background before allowing him to act as an agent and employee of the defendant, G-Unit, at the mansion." Jackson is said to have continued to employ McKenzie despite his criminal history, which includes a felony charge involving illegal possession of a handgun.
Ortiz, who claims she has been permanently damaged by the attack, is seeking an undisclosed amount for medical bills and damages, reports AllHipHop.com.
