I'm really sick of celebrities hawking high priced crap

especially black celebrities.

Why would you have a clothing or jewelry line that is so high priced that your fan base can't afford it?

Having said that, Jay Z really needs to sever ties with Barneys.

Roger Staubach got me hooked on Rolaids.

But Jay Z is now pushing Barney?

That is just whacked.

Jay Z is the one hawking him, not me.

Or they are just "tied" together somehow. Maybe they did a duet, a remake of "Islands in the stream" or "summer lovin'"

Or maybe they did a whole album together, with one side being Jay Z doing covers of Barney songs and the other side being Barney doing covers of Jay Z songs.

Or did they do a song together at the M-TV music awards that involved a lot of twerking?

I don't watch enough ET to know what is going on, so I can only imagine things.
