Rapper Earl Simmons aka DMX and his wife of more than 10 years, Tashera Simmons, have separated two weeks after he was released from prison because she could not continue to stand by his side while he continues to get into trouble with the law.

Tashera is already working on her own reality show titled “Tashera Simmons… Life After X”, which will show how their family is coping with DMX’s legal and drug problems and how they “cope with a husband and a father that has let them down over and over again.”

The reality show is just the start. Tashera is also working on a book, a memoir titled “Tashera Simmons… Strength of a Woman”, with the help of author Aliya S. King. That is good timing. Tashera decides to separated from her husband for some time, does a reality show, writes a book and earns a good amount of cash before she and DMX get back together again.

“It’s not a tell-all, I want to clear that up. It’s a memoir, it’s a story about our life, my life, and our life together,” Simmons told in a press release announcing the reality show.

“My side of the story, because I feel like in his book, he didn’t really get into detail to better explain it,” Tashera Simmons stated. “I think reading my book, it explains everything. I’m talking about everything, from my childhood when I was abandoned by my mother and left to take care of my siblings, to when me and Earl (DMX) first met at 11 and we got together at 18 and I’m starting from there until then on…It’s a positive tell all.”

Tashera and DMX met while they were little kids, started dating at 18 and, finally tied the knot in 1999. The couple has four children together. The 39 year-old rapper is the father of at least eight children. We hope Tashera and DMX can make it work because they seem to have been made for each other.

Two of the biggest stories of the past week have been Rep. Joe Wilson interrupting President Barack Obama during his speech to Congress by shouting, “You lie!,” and last night when Kanye West went on stage and interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards saying that Beyonce deserved the award instead.

The video above is a humorous splicing of the two events whereby Kanye interrupts Obama during his address to Congress. Very well done and funny!

In a world where life often imitates art, four people were stabbed during the after-party for the “Notorious” movie premiere, chronicling the life of rapper Biggie Smalls aka Christopher Wallace aka Notorious B.I.G.

Police said Saturday a 21-year-old victim stabbed numerous times was in critical condition at Brookdale Hospital. Three other who were stabbed were in stable condition.

The film stars Jamal Woolard (as Biggie), Angela Bassett (as his mom) and Derek Luke (as Sean Combs/P-Diddy/Puff Daddy). No other information about the incident has been released at this time.

DMX defines class and it was a total shocker when the two-hit rapper was busted again by the po-po.  This time the cops in Miami nabbed him for driving without a valid license.

He was popped in Miami yesterday for driving without a valid driver’s license, according to the local po-po. Why he would do this after getting collared in Arizona on a suspended license just a month ago is anyone’s guess. Of course, he then got nabbed three days later in ‘Zona for animal cruelty and felony drug possession charges.

Tune in next week for DMX’s new and more current mugshot.
