NOT Guilty .......... I smell BULLSH*T

John Edwards has just been found NOT GUILTY on one of six campaign fraud charges stemming from his 2008 run for President -- the judge declared a mistrial on the remaining counts after jurors deadlocked.

Edwards was found "not guilty" of receiving illegal campaign contributions.

The jury failed to reach a verdict on the other charges -- including three additional counts of illegal campaign contributions, one count of conspiracy, and one count of making false statements.

The jury -- 8 men, 4 women -- reached today's verdict after 9 days of deliberations.

The two-time former Presidential candidate was charged with the six counts of campaign finance fraud for allegedly using nearly $1 million in campaign contributions to hide his mistress Rielle Hunter and their lovechild from the public.

Edwards faced a maximum of 30 years in prison and a $1.5 million fine.

In closing arguments, Edwards' lawyer had told the jury the money to hide his mistress came from a former campaign treasurer and an elderly supporter -- both of whom gave Edwards the money as a gift for his benefit ... not as part of his campaign.

Edwards' lawyer said the money was used to hide his affair from his dying wife, claiming, "John was a bad husband, but there is not the remotest chance that John did or intended to violate the law."

We don't know if prosecutors will push for a retrial.

Things That Make Me Laugh...

Sometimes in Hollywood, you can actually get honest answers. I love Madonna during her 20/20 interview, she wa asked about her opinion on Lady Gaga ...... Enjoy!

Pop Culture ... Keeping It 100

Singer Andre 3000 has started filming the life story of rocker Jimi Hendrix, and he strikes a remarkable resemeblance. (Keeping It 100)No more Erykah Badu, and this marks the end of Outkast.

Beyonce' returned to the stage this weekend, at the "Revel" Casino, and she paid tribute to Whitney Houston and Lauryn Hill. She has lost 60 pounds by eating lettuce. (Keeping It 100)Beyonce' was never pregnant, and I'm not gonna address this any further. Hollywood is a machine, you have to keep it oiled and turned. The payoff can be great, but to lose your soul, doesn't quite seem worth it. Her show was nothing new, and she really showed what her vocals lacked, in her tribute to Houston.

Former B2K singer Raz B continues to out all the DL gays in Hollywood, this time he's outing Bow Wow, Lil Fizz, Omarionand Chris 'Breezy' Brown in his new tell all book. (Keeping It 100)He's telling the truth, but his antics are getting old, and if I were him, I would be careful, his life could very well be on the line. IJS

J.Lo wants to make more money on American Idol than the 15 millions dollars that Britney Spears is getting to be on X-Factor. Lopez has alluded that she's not sure if she wants to return to Idol, with is a bait for more money tactic. (Keeping It 100)It baffles me how two non singing talents can judge a singing competition, but I dygress. All jokes aside, Spears is a more formable player and her 'crazy' keeps us paying attention.

Drake and Chris 'Breezy' Brown, both chopped down toss up singer Rihanna, and both made records about the incident. (Keeping It 100) Breezy is an idiot for continuing to deal with RiRi, they both are poison to one another, and Drake is basically trying to keep up with Hollywood. Rihanna is just showing the world how she truly got her record deal.

Happy Memorial Day!!

And gearing up for the next four years, Lets Go!!!
