#DidntSeeThisOneComing : QUESTLOVE'S CELEBRITY STORIES

Not sure if it's "the Best Website Ever", but ?uestlove's new spill page is definitely entertaining — and, if anything, deserves a design award.

Click the image to get your Hollywood glimpse (through the eyes of an unusually intellectual celebrity musician, of course). See below for our Top Picks.

Top Picks
  • Nas — This dude was my favorite emcee growing up. I kicked it for two hours with his father, Jazz/Blues legend Olu Dara. I chose his side against Jay. And I've wanted to support him in his battles with Kelis. But damn.
  • Russell Simmons — This illustrates what so often happens in activist circles: competitiveness and infighting over discourse and collaboration.
  • Rosario Dawson — Ever since Larry Clark's KIDS, Rosario has been my girl. But this story was more about our insatiable celebrity culture, and the toll it takes on the person behind the celebrity.
  • Allen Iverson — Cuz this sh*t is too damn funny to miss.
  • Amy Winehouse — Cuz you can't always believe what you read/hear.
  • Kanye West — Cuz I knew he was arrogant (read: insecure).
  • lauryn hill — I was actually nervous clicking this one. And at least it makes you laugh.
  • dead prez — Been trying (unsuccessfully) to link with these dudes for a minute now, because they're dope emcees with a World View like mine... I've always wondered if they were as revolutionary in action as in lyric. And this story answered the question, kind of.
  • Robert De Niro — Rather than crumple paper for a night, let's just put it like this. This guy's acting credits include: Mean Streets, The Godfather, Taxi Driver, The Deer Hunter, Raging Bull, Brazil, The Untouchables, Goodfellas, Cape Fear, A Bronx Tale, Casino, Heat, Wag the Dog, Jackie Brown, Ronin and The Good Shepherd, as well as Analyze This, Analyze That and Meet the Parents. Plus, dude is just cool. And he owns one of the best restaurants in my favorite city, Tribeca Grill in Manhattan... And this story, thankfully, confirms EVERYTHING.
  • James Brown — Fame sucks. So does meeting famous people.
  • Herbie Hancock — A full story, with compelling lead-in, sorrowful climax and satisfying denouement.
  • Jeremy Piven — Despite his being a terrible representation of the modern Jew, I can't help but thoroughly enjoy his exploits. And this story.
  • will.i.am — You can read it, but, if you're like me, you won't believe it.
  • MF DOOM — Do the masked emcee's secrets get revealed!?
  • Bob Dylan — Cuz sometimes it's fun to live vicariously.
  • BB King — Cuz sometimes it's fun to live vicariously. (And because all of this is well-deserved. Salute!)
