SMOKE & Mirrors! #RobinThicke ADMITS to drug use, LYING to media about 'Blurred Lines and MUCH MORE!

Posted: 15 Sep 2014 04:44 PM PDT



Well now that the dust has settled, Robin Thicke is COMING CLEAN about EVERYTHING!  He is admitting to LYING to the MEDIA about writing 'Blurred Lines', drug use and being HIGH when he spoke to Oprah, and INFIDELITY!! Get all the SHOCKING REVELATIONS right here!!!







So here are where the TRAIL OF LIES BEGIN:

Four-time Grammy nominee Robin Thicke, who took credit in multiple interviews for co-writing "Blurred Lines," the biggest hit of his career, admitted in court documents released Monday that he was too high on Vicodin and alcohol to co-write the 2013 song of summer with Pharrell Williams. In the deposition released in Los Angeles federal court Monday, the R&B singer-songwriter said: "After making six albums that I wrote and produced myself, the biggest hit of my career was written and produced by somebody else and I was jealous and I wanted some of that credit."

"To be honest, that's the only part where — I was high on Vicodin and alcohol when I showed up at the studio," Thicke said in an April deposition. "So my recollection is when we made the song, I thought I wanted — I — I wanted to be more involved than I actually was by the time, nine months later, it became a huge hit and I wanted credit."

The deposition turns even more strange once Thicke is forced to explain his many statements to the media about how Gaye has inspired him. For example, he once told GQ Magazine, "Pharrell and I were in the studio and I told him that one of my favorite songs of all time was Marvin Gaye's 'Got to Give It Up.' I was like, 'Damn, we should make something like that, something with that groove.' Then he started playing a little something and we literally wrote the song in about a half hour and recorded it."

But that's not actually what happened, Thicke now admits.

The singer says under oath that after writing and producing six albums himself, "I was jealous and I wanted some of the credit... I tried to take credit for it later because (Williams) wrote the whole thing pretty much by himself and I was envious of that."



Thicke says he was just "lucky enough to be in the room" when Williams wrote the song. Afterwards, he gave interviews to outlets like Billboard where he repeated the false origin story surrounding "Blurred Lines" because he says he "thought it would help sell records." But he also states he hardly remembers his specific media comments because he "had a drug and alcohol problem for the year" and "didn't do a sober interview." In fact, when he appeared on Oprah Winfrey's show with his young son and talked about how weird it was to be in the midst of a legal battle with the family of a legendary soul singer who "inspires almost half of my music," Thicke admits he was drunk and taking Norco -- "which is like two Vicodin in one pill," he says.

Despite having limited input in the creation of "Blurred Lines," Thicke was given a co-writer credit, which he says entitles him to about 18-22 percent of publishing royalties. Why would Williams be so generous?

"This is what happens every day in our industry," said Williams during his own deposition. "You know, people are made to look like they have much more authorship in the situation than they actually do. So that's where the embellishment comes in."

Williams' own testimony also got off to a belligerent start. At one point during the examination, Williams says he can read music, but then is shown a transcription of a song, and asked to identify notes and durations. "I'm not comfortable," Williams responds eight times as Busch presses to figure out whether he really can read music.

So Pharrell created the song, but may or may not know how to read music is what we arr to conclude? Robin uses ALCOHOL and DRUGS as his excuse for lying to the media about this and other matters.

"Thicke, for his part, now claims he made all of his statements while drunk or on drugs, none of them true, and he mentioned Marvin Gaye only to sell records," states the counter-claimants' court papers. "He also actually testified that he is not an honest person. This complete contempt for the judicial system, and their obligations to tell the truth, can best be summed up by Thicke's ultimate admission, while under oath, that he '[does not] give a f--k' about this litigation."

So after a failed follow up- album- 'Paula' and his fall from the charts, we get the TRUTH behind his rise to MEGA-STARDOM. So if he LIED about that, he probably LIED about other things as well. Like for instance, him apparently NOT KNOWING how raunchy and LEWD Miley Cyrus had rehearsed with him for their now INFAMOUS VMA appearance together. Well they say the TRUTH will set you free. Maybe he is on hos way to freedom now?

Play Ball! #Vikings REINSTATE #AdrianPerterson after CHILD ABUSE CHARGE! [details]

Posted: 15 Sep 2014 11:21 AM PDT



It appears that Adrian Peterson will be back on the FIELD this week...the playing field that is.  The Vikings have decided to REINSTATE Peterson after his CHILD ABUSE charges!






Vikings owners Zygi and Mark Wilf said the decision to bring back Peterson for practices and Sunday's game at New Orleans was made "after significant thought, discussion and consideration." Peterson was deactivated for Sunday's 30-7 loss to the New England Patriots after he was charged with striking his 4-year-old son with a tree branch this summer.

The Wilfs say they want to let the legal process play out before making any more definitive decisions on Peterson's future with the team.

"As evidenced by our decision to deactivate Adrian from yesterday's game, this is clearly a very important issue," the owners said. "On Friday, we felt it was in the best interests of the organization to step back, evaluate the situation, and not rush to judgment given the seriousness of this matter. At that time, we made the decision that we felt was best for the Vikings and all parties involved.

"To be clear, we take very seriously any matter that involves the welfare of a child. At this time, however, we believe this is a matter of due process and we should allow the legal system to proceed so we can come to the most effective conclusions and then determine the appropriate course of action. This is a difficult path to navigate, and our focus is on doing the right thing. Currently we believe we are at a juncture where the most appropriate next step is to allow the judicial process to move forward."

Peterson's attorney issued a statement on Friday saying his client acknowledged striking his son as a form of discipline similar to what Peterson endured as a young boy growing up in Palestine, Texas. He said Peterson was cooperating with the investigation and did not mean to inflict any harm on his son.

The NFL is looking into Peterson's case, and if convicted he could face a minimum six-game suspension under the league's new tougher domestic abuse policy that was implemented after Commissioner Roger Goodell admitted he botched Rice's initial punishment.

The Vikings' decision to reinstate Peterson comes on the same day the NFL announced that three experts in domestic violence will serve as senior advisers to the league. Goodell sent a memo to teams Monday announcing that Lisa Friel, Jane Randel and Rita Smith will "help lead and shape the NFL's policies and programs relating to domestic violence and sexual assault."

I am sure this decision is going to garner a MIXED REACTION from fans and critics. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK? Do you think the NFL is just looking out for their BOTTOM LINE in this matter. With Peterson on the field, the Vikings may fare better than they did on the field this past Sunday against the Patriots. This may have been a deciding factor in allowing Peterson to play this Sunday against the Saints. Hmm, things that make you wonder....

Posted: 15 Sep 2014 11:39 AM PDT



The San Francisco 49er's QB Colin Kapernick gets his MODEL MOMENT on gracing the cover of 'VMAN's Fall & Winter edition.  The LADIES will love this spread because Kapernick shows a bit of SKIN as he flaunts his FAB ABS in the glossy!  In the issue he talks about his NFL game and reaching his FULL POTENTIAL:



When asked about his personal game:

"I don't like feeling like someone's catching up to me or that I'm giving someone an opportunity to get closer or become better than where I'm at. I also feel by not taking time off that I'm gaining ground on other players. I feel like that's where I get some of my advantage, not taking that time off, not resting a lot."


On his own potential:
"I don't feel like I've played my best football yet."

Check out a few more SNAPS...




It's good to see some POSITIVE IMAGES from the NFL who in recent weeks have been PLAGUED with BAD PRESS surrounding DOMESTIC ABUSE issues.  When Kapernick decides to hang up his cleats, a career in MODELING could follow, wouldn't you agree?
