A new female is going to be a part of the Cash Money Records line-up — wonder what Nicki Minaj is going to have to say about this.

Oddly enough, the person joining the crew is none other than Paris Hilton.

The 32-year-old has signed with the label that holds a full hip-hop roster of today’s top artists of the genre, including Lil Wayne (who is the president of the company), Drake and Nicki.

It’s honestly not surprising that she’s releasing music — this would actually be the follow-up to 2006′s Paris, which sold over a million copies worldwide and was surprisingly very good. However, she’s releasing a collection of house music on the label; something they’re not really known for.

According to reports, the EDM album will be produced by Afrojack will feature other YMCMB hip hop acts such as Lil Wayne. The threesome previously collaborated on Hilton’s single “Last Night.”

Birdman officially announced the news on his Twitter page, welcoming Paris to the Cash Money crew.

“Welcome@ParisHilton to tha Family.RichgangRichgirl.YMCMB,” he wrote, before adding we can expect new music from the hotel heiress “soon.”

The hotel heiress, who makes quite a bit of money on her own, also teased a  track that features Wayne, expressing that she “can’t wait” for the song to hit the public.

The name of the track? “Last Night (I Wanna Bang You)”.

Suddenly, I really don’t have much hope for this project.

You can check out the track yourself — if you’re feeling lucky enough — after the jump.

Word to the idiotic: no matter what form you attempt to use it in, the line “do you know who I am” is never going to work for you. Even if they do know who you are, no one cares.

Sadly, Amanda Bynes seems to be as dense as she is manic these days when she tried a new version of the classic “do you know who I am” line to get on a private jet without I.D. — and of course, as in every other scenario, she was flat out denied.

Lasty Sunday, the lover of Twitter who wants Drake to cause damage to her lady bits attempted to board the aircraft at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to fly out to L.A.

According to sources, the pilot was checking passenger IDs — it’s a really small terminal — and Bynes revealed her driver’s license had been suspended … and she had no other form of government ID.

We’re told the pilot informed Bynes she needed a form of government ID to fly — per TSA regulations — and she then ordered him to Google her as proof, screaming, “I’m Amanda Bynes!”

That’s a new one — but it still didn’t work: the pilot called the company that owned the jet and relayed to him that without ID, Amanda was goin’ nowhere — and she didn’t.

Guess they were as unimpressed with this video as I was.

Get that money!

With a new husband by her side, Janet Jackson is definitely sitting pretty at the moment and life just got a lot more sweet for her pockets, too: the legendary performer is officially part of the billionaire’s club.

According to Variety, on top of her 31-year music career (her first album was released in 1982), the singer has loads of other ventures to thank for her massive wealth:

She reportedly earned $458 million thanks to concert tours, $304 million in acting gigs like The Nutty Professor and For Colored Girls, $260 million in album sales and more than $81 million from sponsorships.

It probably helps that her hubby, Wissam Al-Mana is already a billionaire on his own; making his wealth in Middle Eastern real estate.

But don’t let all of that money make you worry that she’s going to rest on her riches: word has it she’s gearing up for a new album.

Sounds like a win-win situation all around!

“I was like, “Look, dude, I love you guys, I really want to be a part of this, but I can’t play a slut in front of millions of people around the world.” I’d rather go back to Jersey City, doing my small little indie movies.”

If anyone can truly speak from a place of strength and inspiration, it’s the amazing Good Morning America anchor, Robin Roberts.

Following a tumultuous year of loss, pain and struggle, the breast cancer  and bone marrow transplant survivor has decided to place all of her thoughts into a memoir, to be released next year.

The 52-year-old Roberts will write about her struggle with the rare blood disorder—which resulted in a medical leave of absence from GMA while she underwent a successful bone marrow transplant eight months ago—as well as her inspiring return to the anchor desk.

This will not be Robin’s first step into a literary field — she and her late mother, Lucimarian, wrote a book together entitled My Story, My Song that was released in early 2012, as well as From The Heart: Eight Rules to Live By (originally titled and released as Seven Rules to Live By) back in 2008.

The latter of the two was a New York Times best seller.

In a statement, Ms. Roberts expressed that she was “humbled that many have an interest, and draw strength from my ongoing journey. I’m grateful for the prayers and well wishes of so many people.”

The new memoir is set for release in April 2014 from Grand Central Publishing.
