Ludacris, Ice Cube, and now 50 Cent - what do all these people have in common?

No, it isn't that they are highly successful rap artists. It's the fact that they all don't like Oprah.

First, Oprah dissed Ludacris on her show, so now he is outing the media mogul to magazines & radio shows. Second, Oprah didn't even invite Ice Cube to talk about his hit series "Black.White" on her show and he says it's because she knows he wouldn't back down to her. Now 50 Cent is saying he could care less about the billionaire.

In a recent interview with the Associated Press, 50 Cent said, "I could care less about Oprah and her show." Why? "I think she caters to older white women." Ding Dong, Alex can you give him $500?

In related news, 50 Cent is on a crusade to stop obesity. The rapper who once said the words, "I love you like a fat kid loves cake," is giving 100,000 dollars to any high school student that can cook up a healthy recipe for their school lunch. Can you say... tax write off? I can.

Moving along....

Tom Cruise will name Jamie Foxx and Kanye West honorary uncles to his newborn daughter, Suri (born 2 1/2 weeks ago). The Mission Impossible 3 star told reporters:

"Jamie Foxx is going to be uncle. I asked him today and he's accepted. He's an amazing guy. And when I get back to the States I'm gonna ask Kanye West."

I know Tom has been trying to get his honorary black card ever since he attended the BET Awards last year, but he is not playing around anymore. Let's go through the list: Adopted black son, check; Hip-Hop artist to do a soundtrack for one of his movies, check. Two black uncles for your daughter, check. Ok Tom, you can jump on my couch anytime you want, just make sure you take your damn shoes off!
