Attention New York Partiers!
Diddy is offering free cab rides to New Yorkers this New Year’s Eve .
Diddy and Ciroc premium vodka have teamed up with City Taxi & Limousine Commission and E! Entertainment to distribute thousands of debit cards, valued up to $15.
Diddy had this to say:
“New York is the world’s most iconic New Year’s Eve City, so let’s lead by example and show everyone that a sophisticated holiday celebration doesn’t just end when the ball drops, but when everyone gets home safely.”
Teams will distribute the debit cards on the streets, in the Times Square and Chelsea’s nightclub areas between 11PM on New Year’s Eve and 3AM on New Year’s Day.
TMZ is reporting that a Florida florist claims Timbaland owes them more than $10,000 in holiday decorations.
The White Tulip Florist in Miami Beach filed the legal papers so they could put a lien on Timbaland’s Miami mansion. Their affidavit alleges he bought $25,850 worth of trees, flowers and lights but has not paid the bill in ful, he still owes them $11,450.
Apparently, Timbaland became enraged when he got their bill and demanded to see the wholesale cost of the items. The florist showed him, but he still was upset and has so far refused to pay the balance.
For your information:
Starpulse has informed Diddy fans what his personal hygiene routine is while he gets in the mood and gets gets ready to go out. He told them the following:
“It takes me an hour and a half to get ready to go out. I meditate for a bit. Then I pick out an outfit that takes 20 minutes. Then I shower, and when I get out of the shower, I don’t towel dry, I air dry. I have air dry fans in my room. Then I do some push ups and crunches. Then I dance around the room a bit.”
I totally dig the dancing around part… I mean doesn’t everyone who is anyone do that?! The air drying? This is something new to me. It seems that Diddy doesn’t like the feeling of towels! This was reported in the UK Sun three years ago… I must have missed that.
He said he never uses towels and that he does use “certain bath salts and bath oils or bath and shower gels then I just walk around, watch the news.”
He is odd.
Taylor Swift shared some of her thoughts and experiences about her previous relationships to Prom Magazine for their spring issue. She’s also the issue’s cover girl.
“I was 15 and the oldest out of all my friends to have not kissed a guy,” she tells the magazine. She went on to say that because her first kiss came later to her than the rest of her friends, she doesn’t hold back and writes what she thinks and feels:
“I like to write about boys and relationships, I write songs about the things that happen to me, because it helps me figure them out. Writing songs is like breathing for me.”
Swift used to date Joe Jonas, of the Jonas Brothers, but these days, one of her celebrity crushes is Gossip Girl’s Chace Crawford.
Wonder if he ever hears about this would his people get in contact with her people so that he could ask her out to make her dream come true?!

SaMan’s DJ fees have risen from $1,500 to as much as $25K per show according to the New York Daily News. They estimate her total income for 2008 to be approximately $3 million.
They allege that the pay hike is partly because club promoters know where Sam goes, Lindsay is usually with her. A source told them:
“Sam’s now asking for a lot more money to spin,” They went on to say:
“And she’s getting it easily.”
The club promoters must think she has tremendous skillz mixing beats otherwise she wouldn’t keep getting hired. Regardless of having Linds as her main squeeze now, she was making a living before hooking up with her.
