50 Cent isn't happy with his record label, and he's taking to Twitter to vent his frustration, MTV.com reports. "Man I'm not releasing a album," the rapper wrote in an apology to his fans. He said record label Interscope "dropped the ball with me one time too many" but added that he still plans to work with other Interscope artists on their projects.
The rapper also threatened to leak former mentor Dr. Dre's next single, "Psycho," to retaliate against Interscope. "You're gonna love it, it's a big song," he tweeted. "I just don't think it deserves a great setup since they can't seem to get it right when it comes to me." As of Wednesday afternoon, he had not made good on the threat.
Fashion idea for Gaga: Bones
It seems that pigofthemonth.com thinks Lady Gaga needs some help being outrageous. The Ohio company, which sells barbecued meats and sauces, announced that it has pledged more than $500,000 toward getting Gaga to wear a one-of-a-kind dress made of bones to the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. The dress would be auctioned afterward to benefit Bones for Hunger, the company's soon-to-be launched financial assistance program for struggling artists. There's no word from Camp Gaga -- or PETA -- yet.
Not-so-good day for Kat Von D
Breaking up is hard to do -- especially when you have a show to plug. Kat Von D, who announced her split with Jesse James earlier this week, was scheduled to do an interview with "Good Day L.A." Wednesday morning. But, according to TMZ.com, she stormed off the set when she was introduced with a clip from the upcoming season of her TLC reality show "L.A. Ink" in which she is seen getting a tattoo of James' face.
Immediately after leaving, Von D tweeted: "Dear GoodDayLA, thanks for the waste of a perfectly good morning. Lack of compassion n respect for each other never fails to disappoint me."Host Jillian Reynolds read the tweet on the air and suggested Von D take her complaint to TLC for sending the aforementioned clip. The fourth season of "L.A. Ink" premieres at 10 tonight on TLC.
Lauryn Hill baby confusion
Rohan Marley and Lauryn Hill both took to Twitter on Tuesday to clear up speculation -- sort of -- about Hill's newborn son, her sixth child.

On Tuesday, Hill tweeted a statement that said "Contrary to the numerous reports, Mr. Marley did not abandon me while pregnant with his child. We have had long periods of separation over the years but our 5 children together remain a joy to both of us."The same day Marley tweeted well wishes to Hill "on the birth of her new son."
The Force isn't with Lucas
Britain's Supreme Court ruled against George Lucas' Lucasfilm on Wednesday, saying the "Star Wars" producer does not have a case for copyright infringement against British engineer Andrew Ainsworth.

Lucasfilm won a Californian lawsuit over the helmet sales in 2006 and was awarded $20 million.
