"I just kind of remember seeing [Rechnitzer] go flying, not flying as in like feet off the ground, but he went back significantly," Marianna Ruiz said in her deposition. "I was just in shock that somebody would ... just kind of strike somebody out of nowhere." Witness Michael Sherman said, "All of a sudden, [Diddy] hit him. And there was a taxi behind Gerard. Gerard got knocked into the taxi." Rechnitzer, 27, is seeking unspecified damages in the suit.

In a piece on Billboard.com, Cheri Dennis discusses her much delayed debut album, including her past singles.
"Last year, I loved 'I Love You,' but the album itself I wasn't confident in yet," says the 28-year-old Cleveland native about the revamped album. "It was hard to endorse it and support it and push it during that time. But now I can say with confidence, this is a good way to come in. The best meals are slow cooked. I'm just excited now because the timing is so perfect."

Platinum recording artist Yung Joc joined Pezo In Da Cribb in a highly populated homeless area in downtown Atlanta during the holiday season where the duo freely handed out money to needy and unsuspecting citizens. Their generosity proved to be overwhelming, as the crowd roared with praise and cheers as they left.
Since its November inception, Make It Rain In Da Hood has made a tremendous buzz on the Internet. With over a thousand hits on the #1 video sharing website, You Tube and thousands of views per day from the Hot 107.9 website, Make It Rain In Da Hood is clearly an outreach program that people want to see become a national movement.
