Drake

Sometimes, it's hard to be Drizzy: Billboard reports that the Toronto rapper is being sued by a woman claiming to be his ex-girlfriend over royalties from the song "Marvin's Room," from last year's Take Care. Remember the woman on the phone at the beginning of the song and throughout it, asking Drake questions like "Are you drunk right now?" One such Ericka Lee claims that it's her voice, and that she's been unfairly compensated for a contribution that her lawsuit claims "is highly significant to the overall work." (I'm not disagreeing -- it really cements the pathetic drunkness of the whole song.) The lawsuit, filed yesterday, asks that she be declared an official co-writer, and that she receive damages and profits and such. It's on!

● Roseanne Barr announced Thursday that she has filed the requisite paperwork to run for the Green Party nomination, just as she said she would. "The Democrats and Republicans have proven that they are servants — bought and paid for by the 1 percent — who are not doing what's in the best interest of the American people," she said, impressing also that, "Mainstream media will be unable to ignore me, but more importantly they will be unable to overlook the needs of average Americans in the run-up to the 2012 election."

● "I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him," says Drake, who was, as you might recall, a child actor up in Canada. He's even been preparing: "I watch all the addresses. Any time I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel. I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impression." [RS]

Drake

Drake is the hottest rapper around, I guess, so you'd think his collaborators would chomp at the bit to show him off wherever they could. But when Mary J. Blige originally released a video for her "Mr. Wrong" single, Drake was nowhere to be found. Strange, since he raps on the original track. Finally, Blige has given us the Drizzy we demand: this new video for "Mr. Wrong" features Mr. Aubrey Graham in all his moody solitude, rapping in some kind of rave warehouse.

Toronto's own Drizzy Drake is having the best year ever -- a chart-topping album in which he declares he "killed everybody in the game last year," a potential lawsuit brewing against him by his hometown, endless publicity and attention and glitz and glamour, oh my God. How could any one person handle all of it?
