Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Jailed rapper LIL’ KIM has completely transformed herself during her time jail – because she spends the whole time reading spiritual self-help books. The LADY MARMALADE singer, real name KIMBERLY JONES, has been incarcerated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania since 19 September (05). She is due to be released from the federal lock-up at 6 am Monday morning (03JUL06), after serving two-thirds of her 366-day sentence for lying to a grand jury about a 2001 rap-war shootout. According to her lawyer L LONDELL MCMILLIAN, the rapper’s two favourite books during her prison stay were THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE by RICK WARREN and THE SEVEN SPIRITUAL LAWS OF SUCCESS by DEEPAK CHOPRA. He tells the New York Post, "I think you’ll see the maturation of Kimberly Jones. I think Kim needed an opportunity to get at peace with herself and regroup." MCMillian insists the rapper’s time behind bars was by no means easy, saying, "She did hard labour. It wasn’t a cupcake facility. It wasn’t where MARTHA STEWART was. "She handled it very well. She didn’t complain. She accepted her responsibility. She’s extremely tough and street smart." After her release from prison on Monday, Lil’ Kim will be taken to an undisclosed location in New Jersey for processing and will then spend 30 days under house arrest at her home.

Independence Day will take on a special meaning this year for Lil’ Kim.

The rapper, who has been serving a 366-day prison sentence for federal perjury since September 19 will be released nearly three months early on Monday due to good behavior.

"I am thrilled to be coming home," Kim said in a statement. "I thank all my fans for all their letters, as well as my family and friends for all their support throughout the past 10 months."

Rumors of Kim’s release have been swirling since Tuesday’s BET Awards, where the rapper’s mother told reporters she expected her daughter to be released in the coming days.

Kim, whose real name is Kimberly Jones, is scheduled to leave Philadelphia Federal Detention Center on Monday at 6 a.m. and then will remain under house arrest for a 30-day period. She is also on probation for three years.

"We are pleased that Kim is coming home to start the next phase of her life," Kim’s attorney, L. Londell McMillan, said in a statement. "She has accepted responsibility and handled herself in an exemplary manner."

yeah, but he bit them first. Whatever AXL he should just be happy he is getting free publicty!

GUNS N’ ROSES frontman AXL ROSE has blasted Swedish police for blackmailing him into co-operating with their demands. The singer was being held in a Swedish jail after being arrested in the early hours of Tuesday morning (26JUN06) for allegedly biting a security guard during a drunken brawl. After agreeing to pay a fine of 40,000 kronor (US$5,500/GBP3,000), he was released from jail. He was also ordered to pay 10,000 kronor (US$1,360/GBP756) in damages to the security guard. But tour manager MERCK MERCURIADIS says the star only admitted to the "violent conduct" because he was physically mistreated as well as threatened with up to three weeks behind bars if he didn’t. Rose would have missed the tour had he not complied. Mercuriadis says, "We are in the middle of a tour. "The Swedish authorities were very aware of this, yet continually threatened us over a 12-hour period with between five days and three weeks incarceration without bail if Axl did not ‘co-operate’. "They were fully aware that there were millions of dollars at stake, not to mention the hopes of tens of thousands of fans who had paid for tickets to see Guns N’ Roses." "The point is, the police report should not be taken at face value, and if one were to be explicit, this experience is tantamount to being held for ransom. "If the context were any different, Axl would probably have preferred to spend the time in jail in order to ensure that all the facts were a matter of public record."
