Big Things

Alex Rodriguez and Jay Z's Celebrity Poker Tournament popped off last night in the NYC. It was presented by Fox Woods and Mercedes Benz:

Alex Rodriguez, Ashanti, Nelly, and A-Rod's wife Cynthia Rodriguez kicked it.

And of course Jay was there gettin' his hustle on:

Damn that sexy swagger....

Some of Jigga's celeb friends came out:

Jay and Tru Life

Even Cedric the Entertainer came out:

Umm Jay--only your girlfriend can pull off that huge open mouthed laugh and look cute. Not you boo.

But speaking of cute:

What y'all know about that A-Rod?

Looks like fun times were had by all.

Oh my damn!:

Miss Jones, Miss Jones. This ish is unacceptable. I have no words.

The Pursuit of Happyness press conference was at the Beverly Hilton in The Wood last week. Will Smith and his son Jaden were the stars of the day:

Will, Jaden, and Jada

Too cute. Jaden is actually playing WIll's co-star/son in the movie as well.

I absolutely adore this family. Go here for a few stills from the movie.

Congrats to Emmit Smith and his now 2x champion partner Cheryl Burke. They are the reigning champs of the second season of Dancing With the Stars. I can't even front...Emmit tore it down last night.

Check out the new video from Young Jeezy for "I Luv It":

I'm definitely lovin' this joint.

The Randomness:

1. Aww damn. Now that the "others" have caught wind to the nonsense spewing from Carmen Bryan (Nas' baby mama)--her book is about to hit the Bestsellers list. Story
