‘Love & Hip Hop’ Star You Oughta Be in Porn ... Butt There’s A Catch
Karlie Redd has proven she's cool with showing off her assets, but now she's got an offer to go pro ... by starring in a XXX production.
We've seen the letter Vivid Entertainment sent to the "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" star ... offering her a chance to shoot two sex scenes.
If she accepts, Karlie's guaranteed $25k, but the real money comes on the back-end. We're told she has the possibility of making over six figures, because as the folks at Vivid know (Kim K, Courtney Stodden, Mimi & Nikko, Farrah Abraham) celeb sex tapes tend to be profitable.
Karlie will have to go all in though. The offer requires her to follow in Farrah's -- umm, footsteps ... with a backdoor scene.
We're told she's seriously considering it ... so get your credit cards ready.

'Love & Hip Hop Atlanta' Cast Forced to Make Love ... Not War [TMZ TV]
"Love and Hip Hop Atlanta" is dropping the hammer on the cast -- all those epic on-screen brawls have been banned! Turns out those fights that helped the show become a huge hit ... aren't sitting so well with advertisers.
But it ain't gonna be easy to get this group to put their fists down.
‘Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta’ Emergency Ratchet Meeting ... Cast Told No More Fights
"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" has more punches than Mayweather-Pacquiao, but the show’s producers are dead serious about putting an end to all the fighting ... even if it pisses off fans. Collective WTF, right?
Production sources tell us the ATL ladies and gents were forced to sign docs agreeing to put their manicured claws (and fists) away ... after major advertisers started complaining. Show execs flew to Atlanta 2 weeks ago to lay down the law.
We're told all cast members who brawl during taping will be cut from the episode without pay and suspended. They could also face possible termination.
It's a risky move, since 'LHHA' has become VH1's most popular show, by far -- and let's face it, fights are part of its winning formula.
But the threat of hardcore punishment seems to be working. We hear the cast has resorted to screaming matches because nobody wants to lose their money -- the definition of a true thug.

Law enforcement sources tell us the rapper was pulled over by Atlanta PD Thursday for speeding. Cops ran his license and discovered it was suspended. But that wasn't all.
YJ has a warrant out for his arrest. We don't know the nature of the warrant, but it doesn't matter much. The rapper was cuffed and taken to the cop shop for a not-so-pretty mug. He's still in custody.
You may recall... Joc recently battled his baby mama to prevent her from airing his dirty laundry on an upcoming project called "Baby Mamas Atlanta, Virginia, Denver & Los Angeles."
More laundry in the hamper.

'Love & Hip Hop: NY' Star GUILTY of Slinging Coke & Heroin Off to Prison After Wedding
'Love & Hip Hop' couple Mendeecees Harris and Yandy Smith might be honeymooning in a federal prison ... because the groom just plead guilty to running a drug ring in upstate NY.
Harris struck a plea deal in the case, and will now face 5 to 40 years in the federal pen, and/or a fine of $5 million. The feds nailed him for a drug trafficking operation that shipped cocaine and heroin to Rochester for 7 years.
Harris will remain free on bail until his sentencing in August -- good thing for him ... since he and Yandy are getting married next month on "Love & Hip Hop Live: The Wedding." By the way, he also has to surrender all his paychecks from 'LHH.'
The only good news for Yandy -- when her hubby gets locked up ... she'll get back most of the $200k she put up for his bail when he originally got busted last year.

'Love & Hip Hop' Star Makin' It Rain ... As a Rum Runner!
"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" chicks are best known for getting ratchet on cam -- and now cast member Karlie Redd can fuel those fights with her own line of rum.
We've learned Redd signed a deal with Local Choice, the booze bottlers behind Tiny's Tequila (as in T.I.'s wife). Spokesperson KD McNair says they first approached Redd with the plan to create a custom liquor -- but going the rum route was all her idea.
Our 'Love & Hip Hop' sources say Redd's getting a 25% ownership stake in her brand, and will be very hands-on. We're told she'll weigh in on everything from bottle designs to testing new flavors -- a dirty job that can get sloppy... if done right.
No word on a product name yet. One suggestion: Redd Rum -- it's murdder.
Ok, the tagline needs some work.

'Love & Hip Hop' Star Jhonni Blaze Co-Star Throws Shade ... Helps Spread Stripper Fight Vid
What do you think "Love & Hip Hop: New York" star Jhonni Blaze is more pissed about -- the fact a video of her catching an ass whupping is going viral ... or the fact one of her co-stars helped spread it?
The video is from Jhonni's stripper days back in Houston ... a few years ago, and shows her in an epic fight with another stripper. All you need to know is Jhonni (who used to bang Drake) is the one on the ground ... so the clip is far from flattering to her.
As for why the video just surfaced ... Jhonni recently talked smack about being a badass on the 'LHHNY' reunion show -- so a fan of Moniece Slaughter (Jhonni's nemesis) dug up the clip to shame JB. Moniece was delighted and even reposted the clip ... though she eventually deleted it.
In the end, it doesn't really matter why -- it's a great video. Watch and enjoy.

Ray J on 'Love & Hip Hop' Intense Give & Hate Negotiations ... But He's Coming Back
Ray J wants more love ... "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" producers want more drama -- but they still hammered out a deal to keep him on the show, save his relationship, and line his pockets all at once.
Ray J hashed out his problems with the show's creator, Mona Scott, at dinner Wednesday night ... along with his girlfriend, Princess Love.
As TMZ first reported, Ray J quit the show because he felt it only showed his relationship with Princess Love in a negative light and he thought the show was hurting them.
We're told Ray J asked Mona to show more of the good parts of his and PL's relationship. Mona agreed, but insisted on keeping some drama on cam too. She knows what pays the bills.
In the end, we're told Ray agreed to more balance -- and just to seal the deal, Mona sweetened the pot with a new contract that includes ratings bonuses.
You take the good, you take the bad ... but most of all, you take the money.

'Love and Hip Hop' Lawsuit It's the THOT that Counts
"Love and Hip Hop" star Masika Tucker is up in lights on the Sunset Strip, and lots of people who see her now think she's a whore ... and that has has triggered a bitter lawsuit against her co-stars.
The whole brouhaha is over a couple of strip clubs. A guy named Sam Sharif owns Ace of Diamonds in Vegas and Metropolitan Nightclub in WeHo, which has an Ace of Diamonds night every Monday.
Sharif hired Masika to promote the WeHo AOD, and part of the promotion was a big, splashy billboard on the Strip. It didn't sit well with Masika's enemies, "Love and Hip Hop" stars Nikki and Marcelle Mudarris.
Nikki and Marcelle actually rent their WeHo building to AOD, so they were really pissed off when they saw Masika's billboard. When Sharif refused to take the billboard down, Nikki and Marcelle put another billboard up nearby, with Maskika's mugshot from 10 years ago with the word "T.H.O.T."
Sharif says that billboard has torpedoed his business because he was catering to high-end clients and now people thinks it's a sleazy club advertised by a whore. He also says people think he's a fraud and really doesn't own the club.
Money cures all, and Sharif is suing for a million bucks.
