THE TOP ILLI-MO STORY THIS WEEK IS:


Former View co-host Sherri Shepherdwho exited the ABC program in June 2014, returned to her talk show roots on Thursday when she appeared as a guest moderator on the program. It was a very special episode of ABC’s “The View” that was pre-taped  two weeks after the ruling,  that she was the legal mother of an 8 month old that she and ex-husband Lamar Sally had through surrogacy. 
Shepherd's open dialogue started when Raven Symone explained how impatient she was to have kids, to which Shepherd responded, "Girl, I got one or two you could have of mine. I will give them to you."
The topic then changed to the importance of friendship and how it affects relationships, with Shepherd explaining of her failed marriage, "I actually feel like if I had listened to my best friends, I wouldn't be having a million attorney’s in my life right now."
Still, joking about her struggles wasn't something Shepherd was shy about doing, concluding the topic of discussion with, "My father still wants to kill my husband… Dad you're 70 years old. What you going to do now?"

Another subject  was of Tinder — in particular, a recent survey that found one-third of the app’s users are married, and that women are more likely to cheat using it than men.
“Usually when you window shop you usually go into the store and eventually buy something,” Shepherd said.“I don’t think it’s just looking; I think it’s just waiting for somebody to bite,” 

Interesting that The View invited her back. Wonder if she would return if they brought her back on as a cohost?  When she co-hosted The Tom Joyner Morning Show Thursday, the question was asked about it and she quipped, "You know, this looks like this might be there last year, but, you know, I really dont know. I really dont know.".....oh we know, add more zeros to the checks and guess what....she is having a seat! LOL

Kanye –Madonna

Devout Glastonbury-goers really don't want Kanye West to headline the festival. After an online petition attracted more than 133,000 signatures calling for the rapper to be taken off the bill, Emily Eavis has revealed she received death threats after booking Kanye for the headline slot.

The Glastonbury organiser, Emily Eavis (PICTURED WITH HUSBAND MICHAEL) said it was upsetting given she had booked “something that was so exciting and interesting and fresh and brilliant for the festival”.
She told the Times: “It was not a pleasant world we unwrapped. I had death threats and stuff. It was just horrible. It was just crazy.
“It was getting out of control. We had Time magazine, all the American news channels saying they were going to come down. This incredible onslaught worldwide.”
She said that Kanye was the most exciting artist making music at the moment, adding: “for us, getting the biggest star in the world was an amazing coup”.
The petition to “cancel Kanye West’s headline slot and get a rock band” states on its change.org page: “Kanye West is an insult to music fans all over the world. We spend hundreds of pounds to attend glasto, and by doing so, we expect a certain level of entertainment.”

The annual festival will take place June 24-28 in  Pilton,

 Somerset, England
Wow, death threats? Really? We know Ye can be a bit off the chain, but he isnt Hitler. 
In other Ye newz, he reportedly settled a lawsuit with former child soul star Ricky Spicer over the sample that anchorsYeezus hit, "Bound 2," Billboard reports.
Spicer initially sued West, Roc-A-Fella Records, Universal Music Group and Island Def Jam Music Group in December 2013, claiming unauthorized use of his voice. Paperwork, dated March 6th, was filed to a New York Court on May 11th discontinuing the suit.
A representative for West declined to comment on the settlement. An attorney for Spicer did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
The sample in question was the song's repeated refrain, "Bound, bound / Bound to fall in love." Spicer recorded those vocals in 1971 when he was 12 for "Bound," a song by his former group the Ponderosa Twins Plus One.
The initial suit claimed, "Mr. Spicer's voice is sampled exactly as he recorded it and his voice… is heard several times." Spicer demanded compensation in light of the song's success, which peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100; the song's popularity was also bolstered by a video featuring West and a topless Kim Kardashian — as well as James Franco and Seth Rogen's endearing shot-for-shot remake.

Wonder how much Ye had to settle for? The song was a huge hit for Ye--and now for Spicer!

After three grueling days that dispatched 283 spellers with ruthless efficiency, St Louis, Mo  resident Gokul Venkatachalam, 14, of Chesterfield,  tied with Vanya Shivashankar, 13, of Olathe, Kansas at the Scripps National Spelling Bee on Thursday in in the Maryland Ballroom within the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center  in NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. .
 Vanya correctly spelled the word  ";scherenschnitte" and Gokul correctly spelled the word "nunatak."
Until last year, the World Series of spellers hadn't seen a tied win in more than five decades.
Now, it's happened for the second year in a row.Why? There weren't enough words left on the competition's list for them to keep facing off until only one was left. Gokul and Vanya who each took home a gigantic trophy and $35,000 in cash prizes.

How can you run out of words??? Havent they heard of a dictionary---it has plenty of them LOL



ADD:"Empire" star Taraji P. Henson announced on Friday on Twitter that Season 2 of the breakout hit Fox drama will debut on September 23 at 9 PM ET/PT.

The Chicago Blackhawks has tied up the NHL Western Conference  against Anaheim Ducks 3-3.

Now, in anticipation of her clothing-line launch slated for August, McCarthy spoke candidly with MORE Magazine about how the shopping experience for a plus-size woman hasn’t seen dramatic improvements .
McCarthy singles out one easily remedied issue, in particular, that she still faces while shopping: the segregation of plus-size clothing in department stores.
“People don’t stop at size 12,” she tells MORE. “I feel like there’s a big thing missing where you can’t dress to your mood above a certain number. [Malls] segregate plus-size [women]. It’s an odd thing that you can’t go shopping with your friends because your store is upstairs hidden by the tire section. ‘We’ll put you gals over there because we don’t want to see you and you probably don’t want to be seen.’”
She continues: “There is just this weird thing about how we perceive women in this country. I would love to be a part of breaking that down.”
According to MORE, McCarthy’s clothing line will contain upwards of “80 pieces in sizes 4 to 28″ marked from $59 to $159 and will be available at Nordstrom, Bloomingdale’s and Macy’s — as well as her personal website MelissaMcCarthy.com.
In other McCarthy newz, and in relation to weight, the actress continued to wow at the London premiere of her new film,Spy, on Wednesday in London  with her continued weight loss (PICTURED ABOVE)
Interesting that she is now losing weight. Wonder if her fans will appreciate her becoming more svelte now that her plus size clothing line is about to launch.

FIT BITZ
We are now debuting a segment called FIT BITZ where 
women and men (mainly in the ILLI MO area) who are 
extremely fit, have fitness model quality and have post their 
fitness pics  on social media.





\
This week we feature former STL model and current Floridian Ashlai Box and current Mista Couture and model Ricodemo  
                                           









This week we feature STL event promoter Loosecannon Slim (who is promoting his annual 
Celebrity BBall Game this Sunday at Chaifetz Arena), who  has developed his own style
of skater boi swag.  Here he sports his trademark back turned cap (here being a black one), a blue Mickey Mouse tee, blue fade jeans and  some black and gold kicks (Jordans we assume).  His tatts  compliment his gear and we definitely cant forget the Tri star MercedesTruck  he's leaning on-- the ultimate accessory.


Why is Duggar's family saying they will use religion to help their son in his incestuous molestation charges? Why are people upset that  Steph Curry is bringing his daughter Riley to the Golden State press conferences? Why did  BB Kings handlers allegedly bar two of his adult children from seeing him during his near end? And why are their now allegations that he was poisoned? Why did a Kenyan lawyer offered cows for Malia Obama's hand in marriage? Why did the police had to  wrestle down a black woman who was 8 months  after she didnt answer them about a disturbance call they received? Why was Chris Brown all in his feelings when his ex Karruche Tran posed with Tyson Beckford? And why did Tyson post a vid of him butt naked for all the freak' who wanted to see him naked? And why was his movie Chocolate City barely in theaters? Why did  singer Cheryl Lynn get all up in her feelings when singer Anita Baker blocked her on Twitter?  And why people BBQ on Memorial Day?
