NeNe Says No No to ATL Relief Efforts

Posted Oct 2nd 2009 9:45AM by TMZ Staff

Ludacris and T.I. donated $10,000 each to Atlanta flooding relief ... so what about ATL native NeNe Leakes? She's too busy clubbin' in Hollywood to care.


We got the Real Housewife of ATL in front of Katsuya the other night. Her response to her city's plight: "I'm going to the gay club."

West Hollywood thanks you for your donation.

Janet Jackson -- The Best Things in Life Are Free

Posted Aug 15th 2009 12:45AM by TMZ Staff

Janet Jackson must have seen the valet at Katsuya in Brentwood yesterday and thought to herself, "What have you done for me lately?" And the answer, apparently, was nothing.


Miss Jackson was in such a hurry to avoid our cameraman, she forgot to pay the valet -- but he didn't seem to mind one bit.

John Mayer: Sake to Us!

Posted Feb 14th 2008 2:52PM by TMZ Staff

John Mayer ran into a few TMZ employees and their friends last night at Katsuya, and instead of running and hiding like most celebs would, he pulled up a chair, shot the s**t and sucked back some sake with our crew!

Although we can't reveal the intimate details of our rendezvous with the star, we can tell you some of the topics covered included bestiality, advantages of wart removal and the dangers of Brazilian bikini waxing on cruise ships.

John Mayer is the man ... period.

Upon exit, Lindsay covered her face while J.R. helped her into his super awesome Lamborghini -- but she couldn't resist dropping the mask and giving the paps a couple of shots for the road. Cheese!
