How fast and accurately can you text? I bet it isn't faster than the winners of LG Mobile's first ever World Cup texting competition.

In a recent vistit to Lopez Tonight, George Lopez asks Mariah to spill the beans on her ethnic background. The entire conversation was prompted by a scene from Carey's new film, Precious, where the main character (Gabourey Sidibe) asks the pop star "What color are you?" Lopez points out that he is sure Carey has been getting this question her whole life, before asking, "So, what color are you?"
Do you want to know what she claims? Check the video below.

Most people have beef with Wendy, but I can't help but like her. Yep, I said it. She makes me laugh in the morning, her signature "How You Doin?" has been adopted by all people & she doesn't seem to take herself too seriously. Last Week T Magazine featured a wonderful image of Ms. Wendy (shot by Ruven Afandor).
To check out her article addressing her infamous Whitney Houston interview, being a female drag queen and her experience in charm school.... click the link below!
