Tupac Shakur's mother, Afeni, has filed a wrongful-death suit against the L.A. gang member she suspects of killing her son. At one point Las Vegas police had named Orlando Anderson, a member of the Southside Crips, as the main suspect in the case. However no charges were filed because police say they did not have enough evidence linking Anderson, 23, to the crime. Anderson filed suit against Shakur's estate last week charging the late rapper beat him up in the lobby of the MGM Grand Hotel a few hours before he was shot. Now Tupac's mother has fired back with a suit of her own. Anderson has denied killing Tupac, and has told the "Los Angeles Times" that he wishes the police would catch the real murderer so that his (Anderson) innocence can be proven.

According to reports, buzz about the pilot for the late-night talk show hosted by Magic Johnson is so good that Twentieth Television is considering shifting the show from a syndicated run and airing it exclusively on the Fox network, when it premieres in January. Such a move might spell trouble for the "The Keneen Ivory Wayans Show," which airs mainly on Fox stations at 11:00 p.m. -- the same slot Magic's show would more than likely air in. The reports point out that Keenen's show has dipped in the ratings so much that Fox stations might not mind the switch. We'll keep you posted.

WQHT- Hot 97 disc Jockeys Angie Martinez and Wendy Williams got into a screaming cat fight last Monday that required several staffers at the Hip-Hop station to break it up. Angie Martinez believed that Wendy Williams was the source of rumor that was in a column in the Daily News about Martinez's relationship with the rapper, Q-tip from A Tribe Called Quest(which I still believe true).. Anyway, just before going on the air to do her shift from 6pm-10pm, Angie Martinez allegedly waited for Williams(who works from 2pm-6pm) to come out the bathroom. Screaming, "Bitch, I thought I told you not to say anything more about us.", Martinez then reportedly pounced on Williams.

"Angie was like a windmill, swinging her arms, and Wendy tried to block the blows with her arms" says a witness.

Wendy Williams reportedly told "Daily News" in NYC that they did get into a fight Monday Night, but wouldn't go into much detail, except to say that her and Martinez are no longer friends!

Angie ended up getting suspended, I think, because people have been filling in for her since.. SHE DID NOT GET FIRED!!!

There is a story going around about LL Cool J getting his mistress pregnant and wanting her to have an abortion and keep it quiet. Last week on Wendy Williams' radio show a girl faxed in during the "Ask Wendy" segment of the show which stated that she is messing around with a rapper/actor and now she is pregnant with his baby. The father moved her into some condo and takes care of her financially even though she has a good job making $50,00 a year. She also said that the father of the baby is married and has children himself. Those are enough clues to give LL away.

First clue, "RAPPER/ACTOR". Now let's see, we got FREDDRO STARR (Onyx/Moesha), ICE CUBE (Name speaks for itself/Friday etc.), TUPAC (Name also speaks for itself/Poetic Justice etc.), and LL COOL J. Well, obviously TUPAC is already eliminated (RIP).

Second clue, "PUT HER IN A CONDO AND TAKES CARE OF HER FINANCIALLY". I think that that eliminates FREDDRO for the simple fact that...THAT NIGGA AIN'T GOT MONEY LIKE THAT!

Now it's narrowed down to ICE CUBE and LL. They are both milloinaires and they are both married with children. But let's think about it. Does ICE CUBE really seem like the nigga to be messin' with a girl that writes to Wendy? I would think that this girl lives out in NY...more of an LL type girl than ICE CUBE. CASE CLOSED yaknowwhati'msayin'?
