Roll over Pepsi Vanilla, it looks like Nelly’s new “Pimp Juice” Energy Drink is becoming the most “controversial” liquid in America. E! Online reported last week that organizations like the National Alliance for Positive Action and the National Black Anti-Defamation League feel that Nelly’s new product endorses “a pimp lifestyle.” In response, Nelly told BET that a portion of his profits will be contributed to 4Sho4kids, a St. Louis organization aimed at helping infants born with disabilities, down syndrome and drug addictions.

Cash, Ritter Die

The 54-year-old actor suffered unforeseen heart complications Thursday night on the set of his sitcom “8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.” Both Johns will be missed.
