IS MO ' MAD AT O?
Earlier this week, Oprah Winfrey aired an interview with Oscar winner Mo'Nique's brother, Gerald Imes, who sexually abused the 'Precious' star. Mo'Nique said she channeled her estranged sibling, whom she called a "monster," when playing her award-winning role of Mary Jones -- in the gritty film Winfrey executive produced. Though the late-night BET talk show host gave Winfrey her blessings to conduct the controversial interview, Mo'Nique denied participating in the show, which also featured the plus-size funnywoman's estranged parents.

Now, sources say she's "less than impressed with how the interview played out."

After watching the top-rated daytime talk show, the Baltimore native allegedly felt that her brother lied about abusing her while she was sleeping, and that he "was not sympathetic enough toward her." As revealed on the show, the mother of three decided to cut ties with Imes after giving birth to her twin boys. She told her older brother that she does not trust him around her children.

'THRILLER ' MOVIE SET TO GO
Looks like Spike Lee is getting ready to give Michael Jackson a proper send off.

The acclaimed director will release 'Brooklyn Loves You, Michael Jackson,' a film about Brooklyn residents who throw a concert as a tribute to the late King of Pop. The movie is loosely based on a party Lee threw in Brooklyn last summer. Samuel L. Jackson has signed on to star in the movie. The two men have a long history together. They attended Morehouse College around the same time, and Jackson appeared in several of Lee's films.

At a recent press conference, the 'Pulp Fiction' star said, "[Spike Lee] was bent out of shape about Michael Jackson's death for a long time. [He was] depressed. I guess the depression set him into writing that story. He was disturbed by the death."

No word on when the movie will be made. Lee, who attended the New York Prince/Michael Jackson party last week and danced until the wee hours of the night to some of the 'Thriller' singer's biggest hits, directed Jackson's 'They Don't Care About Us' music video in the 1990s, and the posthumous 'This is It' clip last year.

BABY MAMA BUSINESS
It's no secret that Lil' Wayne has more than a few kids, and that two of the mothers of his children, actress Lauren London and singer Nivea, were pregnant around the same time.

London, who starred in 'ATL' opposite T.I. sat down with Quddus for TV One's 'Our New Hollywood: The 10 Hottest Tweens, Teens and Twenty-Somethings' show. There, she chatted about how hard it was for her to hear what people had to say about her decision to have a child with the Grammy Award-winning rap icon.

"They talked about me so bad during my pregnancy. ...It [was tough]. I'm not going to lie," she said. "When a woman is pregnant, to me, it's her most beautiful and as pure as she can be, and I felt like they took everything away from me." She also added, "At some point, it did hurt my feelings, and I had to let it go because it was distracting me from what God had me doing. At this point, what can they say? Go ahead." London said that raising her 6-month-old son hasn't been difficult because she has a great support system, including Wayne, who is currently incarcerated. Not only does London have "no complaints" about Wayne as a father, she made sure to clarify, "I am not parenting him alone," and that the Young Money Records head is "a great dad."

LOOSE AS A BUCKET OF JUICE
Jamie Foxx isn't the only Oscar winner singing 'Blame It On The Alcohol.'

'Jerry Maguire' star Cuba Gooding Jr. reportedly had a wild night on the town in Spokane, Wash. Unfortunately for the Hollywood actor, video cameras were also watching when he decided to launch into his "Show me the money" catchphrase from 'Jerry Maguire' to the pleasure of bar patrons at the Blue Spark.

Hand in the air and head nodding, he added, "May those all over the world love us." Gooding, Jr. then yelled, "I want y'all to pay attention. Hey! Hey! Fire, fire." Although most of his lofty, drunken speech was incoherent, the patrons didn't seem to mind. They joined in with screams after he shouted, "God bless the U.S.A." [TMZ]

CAN'T DO IT ALL
Idris Elba probably needs to stick to acting.

The British actor was playing soccer with friends and ended up tearing his Achilles. The hunky 'Wire' actor later appeared on the Jonathan Ross show and joked, "I was going to tell you I was climbing up a volcano, but I wasn't. I was about to score when he [a friend] caught me from the back."

Well, he might have to get around on crutches, but the heartthrob is heating up the box office.

Elba's new movie, 'The Losers,' just hit theaters this weekend. [Bossip]

DARLING NICKI
Despite rumors that she's a lesbian, Nicki Minaj doesn't seem to be coming out of the closet anytime soon.

But, the Young Money rapper said she hopes to see a gay rapper in the near future. "I think the world is getting more gay-friendly, so hip-hop is, too," the New York native said.

"It's harder to imagine an openly gay male rapper being embraced," she added. "People view gay men as having no street credibility, but I think it will happen in my lifetime."

Minaj is rumored to be hitting the road with Lady Gaga for a summer tour. [Details]
