LOS ANGELES — Common is at the top of the Billboard albums chart for the first time in his 15-year career, but now the rapper is setting his sights on a different frontier: Hollywood.
Following up on what many considered to be an exceptional screen debut in the otherwise unexceptional "Smokin' Aces," the Finding Forever rapper is wrapping up work on "Wanted," a buzz-heavy comic book flick that's rapidly becoming one of the most-anticipated non-sequels of 2008.
The famously pacifistic star is once again playing against type — he's taking on the role of the Gunsmith for the flick.

Tennis star Serena Williams and hip-hop artist Common made no secret of their blossoming relationship this past weekend in Miami, where they went club-hopping hand-in-hand.
The new couple were spotted Saturday night holding hands at a Knight's Head Microbrew party at the South Beach haunt Mokai. Later in the evening, Williams, 26, and Common, 36, were once again spotted holding hands, trying to get into Prive nightclub – but failed since Common (wearing shorts) violated the hot spot's dress policy.

John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston were spotted out together a third time after having apparently having lunch and dinner and spending the night together at Aniston’s hotel on Friday in South Beach, Miami. OK! Magazine reports that they were seen having dinner on Sunday, so maybe we can assume that they spent the weekend together and that those are the times they were seen out.

Okay after having read all the recent crazy stories on Popsugar *cough, Jamie-Lynn spears, cough I had to bring some calmness in my head right now, and I'm sure some of you ladies agree with me. So here is Common's So Far To Go, featuring D'Angelo and produced by the late J Dilla:
This is MY favorite hip-hop joint at the moment and possibly forever. I've commented on a recent Buzzsugar post that if Marvin Gaye was alive and a rapper, this song would be his "Let's Get it On."

Ok, this is going to be a bit long and I am sorry in advance for it.
I have been on and off with my boyfriend for close to 11 years now. In the begining it was perfect but due to some family issues on both sides, the pressure of being together began to be too much.
