Cuba Gooding, (he handsome, devil-may-care former
lead singer with die Main Ingredient, is reportedly very un
happy with his Motown contract and is taking steps
remedy the situation. Cuba has been checking out several
big money offers to his services with other labels.
Actress Irene Stokes, the lovely mother of six children
and performer in more than 300 films, was brutally as
saulted and sent to the hospital by a local thug. Irene’s
youngest child continues to get up in the middle of the
night to check on mommy and assure himself that she is
still alive.
Columnist Valentin Singleton won’t tell, but he knows
who the Black actor was who showed up at the Our Lady
of Malibu Chapel funeral services of white actor Jim Hut
ton wearing a black suit, shirt, tie and pillbox hat complete
with veil. The actor cried softly as family, friends and fans

watched. The cornerstanders say that Hutton and the un
known black actor were closer than white on rice in life
and that the actor is taking his death seriously. Valentin
also tells us that the actor is recovering and has tickets in
hand to spend a few days on that hot East Coast resort,
Fire Island, with a wealthy friend. Folks do recover.
Personable Stanley Bethel has been given the tag, Mr.
Musical Magic, by his many friends in the recording indus
try. Stanley, who has owned a record company and
worked for many of the top labels, just completed a tour
with hot disco singer, Candi Staton. Stanley was given his
nickname because practically everything he touches turns
solid gold. When Stanley isn’t touring with a top act he is
busy helping inner city youth. The record industry could
certainly use more down to earth good guys like Stanley
Bethel.
Singer Gloria Gaynor can take a bow for being one of
the most copied lady singers on the scene today. Gloria’s
version of “1 Will Survive” has been copied in French,
Spanish and is now being done by a country singer in
Nashville style. We hope Gloria can take time off from her
touring to get to the bank.
Village People “hot cop” Victor Willis added another
notch to his reputation when he arrived on stage at the
huge Greek Theatre astride a red-lighted motorcycle. Not
to be outdone, other members of the group arrived
through swinging saloon doors, a portable construction
site restroom, a teepee and a jeep.
Rock and roll singer Chuck Berry is facing up to five
years in jail and a SIO,OOO fine when he returns to Tinsel
town to complete that court action over’ unpaid fed
eral taxes.
