ST LOUIS (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – “It’s So Cold in The D” by T-Baby (LaTonya Myles) is getting new fame thanks to an unlikely source: Beavis and Butthead. Beavis and Butthead’s return to MTV is being promoted by a new TV commercial dubbed “Real Housewives of Detroit” (video below). During the video commercial, Beavis and Butthead play a retro music video, prompting them to remark “I’m lost. Is this Real Housewives of Detroit?”

Today, fans are less lost, rediscovering the single and bringing attention back to the local MC. T-Baby does not refer to Teresa Giudice but to the Detroit MC, real name, LaTonya Myles. When her track debuted several years ago on YouTube, “It’s So Cold in the D” became a massive sensation. Now it’s getting national attention thanks to the unlikely commercial.

In the song, T-Baby is inspired by the tragic death of her brother “Mason”. Mason was shot dead in a 2006 at a Coney Island Restaurant. The song was also inspired by the death of T-Baby’s infant son.

T-Baby tells fans she is thankful for all the recently found fame. “I got mad rediculous ghost love for all of you everyone, keep it superfly”.

When the song originally debuted, she told news that “cold” is in reference to people’s hearts. T-Baby has Facebook and MySpace accounts HERE and HERE.

In recent days, Dina suggested to fans that she was already working on a second season of her HGTV series. But this morning, HGTV made the news official. “We’re excited to announce “Dina’s Party” with Dina Manzo has been picked up for a 2nd Season on HGTV!” Neither Caroline nor Teresa Giudice have yet to comment about the news.

Days ago, Dina was angry that Bravo continues to use her life to fuel their programming block. Her feud with Caroline dominated Bravo’s reunion advertisements last week. But it doesn’t appear that Bravo’s paychecks for Dina continue, despite the network’s continued coverage of her life. “I didn’t sign on for opening up every aspect of my life to the world for the rest of my life when I signed that Bravo contract.”

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Mark Ingram is battling alleged leaked scandal pictures 2011 surfacing online today. The Mark Ingram alleged pictures are the latest scandal pics of a professional athlete to surface the last two years. Ingram has yet to comment about the photos.

The Mark Ingram alleged leaked image is a cellphone picture. The image was snapped inside a restroom, of an apparent residence. The image is not dated. The image was allegedly sent to one female who then sent to her friends and ultimately to the website. The image is located HERE.

News of the picture comes days after Ingram delivered a career high ninety-one yards after the Saints, leading New Orleans to a stunning 62-7 win against the Colts. Ingram eclipsed his previous record of fifty-five yards in his win against the Jaguars during week four.

As reported in September on LALATE, there has been a split between how actors and athletes battle leaked photo scandals. Professional athletes almost always issue an apology for pictures that are leaked and move on, whereas Hollywood actors usually blame others for the pictures.

In April this year, Ray Edwards (Vikings) apologized after his own pictures surfaced online. In July 2010, Martellus Bennett (Dallas Cowboys) issued an apology after his own pictures surfaced online.

He told news “I understand that they are totally inappropriate. And for that I am sorry. I regret the embarrassment that it has caused the organization.” And in January 2010, Greg Oden apologized about his own leaked photos. “First, I’d like to apologize to everybody … Portland, the fans, the organization.”

In early October, one man was arrested for committed a digital breach of many celebrities’ mobile and computing devices to steal photos and then leak them online. Officials confirmed that the pictures were being looted from traditional devices like laptops and computers, not just mobile devices like cellphones.
