Ludacris To Open Restaurant At The Atlanta Airport
Wed Jan 4 2012 by Becky Bain
It's nothing new for a celebrity to use some of their millions in earnings to open up a restaurant — Justin Timberlake has NYC BBQ joint Southern Hospitality, while Lady Gaga just opened up an eatery with her dad named Joanne's — but it's just a bit out of the ordinary for a big star to fulfill their culinary fantasies exclusively at an airport setting. "Im taking my restaurateur footprint into the busiest airport in the WORLD! Hartsfield-Jackson ATL International! Chicken & Beer coming soon!" tweeted Ludacris last night (obviously inspired by his 2003 album), with the follow up "THIS IS HISTORY! #chickenandbeer." Hey, we like chicken and beer just fine — time to take a trip to Atlanta! [Via @ludacris]

Fri Nov 18 2011 by Becky Bain
The 2011 American Music Awards returns once again this Sunday, and though its main purpose is to honor the best in music by handing out trophies, the greatest honor an artist can receive is landing one of the many, many performance slots during the three-hour show.
