News - How Charlie Sheen Made More Money This Year Than Ever Before

Charlie Sheen’s epic flame-out earlier this year didn’t hurt his bank account much. In fact, despite getting fired from TV’s top show for his erratic behavior, he pulled in more in the last 12 months than in any previous year: $40 million . The combination of his huge earnings, his ubiquity in the press and his impressive social media following makes him the highest-ranked TV star on this year’s Forbes Celebrity 100 , coming in at # 28 . How? Well, in 2010, prior to his crash and burn, he renegotiated his “Two and a Half Men” contract. For the last season of the hit CBS show, he netted about $1.3 million per episode in upfront salary, plus another approximately $600,000 in back-end syndication fees. That comes to $1.9 million for each 22-minute show. While he was fired before the season was out, he still made 16 episodes out of the 24 scheduled, making just over $30 million (note that Forbes Celebrity earnings numbers are based on pretax gross income – see our methodol

News - Master P Ordered To Pay Only $271 A Month In Child Support For 4 Kids

According to TMZ , “Mr. Make em say unhh”, is in a child support battle with ex-wife Sonya. Percy “Master P” Miller, was ordered to pay $271 a month based on his monthly income of $1, 387. However, Sonya is trying to get her hands on his actual financials since he has to pay the minimum amount until they can find out his true income. Percy would be paying child support for four of six of their children (four whom are minors). While I know Master P, hasn’t been making music or movies as of late, but one thing I at least think I know, is that Master P has GOT to be making just a bit more than less than 2 grand a month. Something in the milk ain’t clean with that situation because that doesn’t even almost sound accurate to me. Master P Miller has a total of seven children with Sonya. Their names are Romeo, Vercy, Intylyana, Tytyana, Itali, Hercy, Mercy. (4 of them are minors Tytyana, Italy, Hercy and Mercy.). He also has two other children from a past relationship Veno, and

Blog - #DiaryOfATiredBlackMan "Affairs Of The Heart"

Okay here we go groovemiesters, Been a while since I've put together an open blog this one I'd like to call "Affairs Of The Heart". Now I'm sure a lot of you may know from my past blogs, poems, or songs even, that I'm a pretty deep and open hearted guy and a lot of the FACTS of my relationships can be found amongst them, but for those that don't know I'll go into a quick catch up. As much as I hate the terrestrial term "ex" I haven't found or conjured up a suitable replacement term (any suggestions welcomed). See my problem with that term is it demeans the relationship you once had. Understandable in some cases but often down to miscommunication, lack of empathy, ego, fear etc you can become estranged from somebody you still care a lot about. Then down to whatever reason they are now classed as merely an "Ex". Well before I go off topic it does bode relevance as after an conversation with a friend of mine today, an issue w
