 Big Boi Serves Up Sashimi at SeaWorld

The rapper was on a trip with his family to the massive Orlando aquarium and theme park -- and the VIP tour brought him face-to-beak with these ferocious penguins, allowing him to overcome his fear of being cuddled to death.

SeaWorld's publicist tells us the penguins were the highlight of his trip.

Kanye: No YOU Take the Award!

kanye westAt BET's Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta last night, Kanye West won "Best Hip-Hop Video" -- and then tried to give it away! Complaining Kanye, who was a major whiner after not winning at this year's MTV Music Video Awards, was suddenly eating humble pie; after accepting the award for his song "Stronger," he tried to give the award to competitors UGK! Ugh!

Kanye accepted the award and then said that UGK's song "International Players," featuring OutKast, was more deserving, and handed the award to OutKast's Big Boi. Is he "stronger," or just "crazier?"

Big Boi handed back the award and told wacky West that he had no reason to be humble. Besides, Big Boi's got plenty awards of his own.

Outkast's quick-spittin' MC, Big Boi, was cast out in New York last night, and TMZ cameras caught up with him while he was waiting on his ride. Ticket for one to Stankonia!


When his getaway finally arrived, Big Boi asks, "Is he gonna tell me I can't smoke in the car? It's not crack, this is a regular cigar!" Smoke 'em if you got 'em!

Andre 3000 a Tour OutKast?

Big Boi & Andre 3000How much would you pay for half a concert? Now... how much would you pay for half an act?

Rumors are swirling around the internet that OutKast plans to kick off their upcoming tour without Andre 3000. Big Boi has reportedly stated that Andre will not be joining him on the upcoming tour. Huh?

An announcement like this puts rumors of an impending breakup of OutKast back in the public spotlight. Those rumors have surrounded the group since the release of "Speakerboxx"/"The Love Below" a two-disc set comprised of solo albums by Andre 3000 and Big Boi.

Outkast's rep's told TMZ that there has been no announcement about the upcoming tour, which makes more sense then Big Boi touring alone under the OutKast moniker. How do you pull off "Hey Ya", the group's biggest hit, without Andre? Would a cardboard cutout of Andre on stage would be out of the question.

The, "we promise we're not fueding," hip-hop duo's new film and album "Idylwild" hits the streets in August.

2006 Hits, Misses and Sleepers

Brad PittIf 2005 hits were any indication, it appears that people will just embrace something familiar if they think it's quality entertainment. Cases in point: The latest installments of the 'Star Wars' and 'Harry Potter' movies became the year's top blockbusters; returning hitmakers 50 Cent and Mariah Carey delivered smash albums; and 'CSI,' 'American Idol' and 'Desperate Housewives' continued to dominate the TV landscape.
