Jackie Joyner-Kersee (born March 3, 1962 in East St. Louis, Illinois) is a retired American athlete, ranked among the all-time greatest athletes in the women's heptathlon as well as in the women's long jump. She won three gold, one silver, and two bronze Olympic medals, in those two different events. Sports Illustrated for Women magazine voted Joyner-Kersee the Greatest Female Athlete of the 20th century, just ahead of Babe Didrikson Zaharias.
She was inspired to compete in multi-disciplinary track & field events after seeing a 1975 made-for-TV movie about Babe Didrikson Zaharias.
Joyner-Kersee attended college at the University of California at Los Angeles, where she starred in both track & field and in women's basketball from 1980-1985. In basketball, she played forward, and she scored less than 20 points during her collegiate career. She was honored on 21 February 1998 as one of the 15 greatest players in UCLA women's basketball. [1]
In 1988, Joyner-Kersee established the Jackie Joyner-Kersee Foundation, which provides youth, adults, and families with the resources to improve their quality of life with special attention directed to East St. Louis, Illinois. In 2007, Jackie Joyner-Kersee along with Andre Agassi, Muhammad Ali, Lance Armstrong, Warrick Dunn, Mia Hamm, Jeff Gordon, Tony Hawk, Andrea Jaeger, Mario Lemieux, Alonzo Mourning, and Cal Ripken, Jr. founded the "Athletes for Hope", a charitable organization, which helps professional athletes get involved in charitable causes and inspires millions of non-athletes to volunteer and support the community
In April 2001, Joyner-Kersee was voted the "Top Woman Collegiate Athlete of the Past 25 Years. As of August 2008[update], Joyner-Kersee holds the world record in heptathlon along with six all time best results and her long jump record of 7.49 m is second on the long jump all time list. In addition to heptathlon and long jump, she was a world class athlete in 100 m hurdles and 200 meters being as of June 2006[update] in top 60 all time in those events.
AND NOW TO THE ART AND ENT NEWZ IN THE MO AND THE ILLI:
Fat Tuesday in ST. Louis was mild but last weekend was when the celebration occurred. There was a Parade of Lights Tuesday that was held near the major downtown casino, Lumiere Place. Other St Louis events were going around but reportedly none came close to the Parade of Lights (well, it was a during the week when folk couldn’t really drank their guts out cuz of work the next day). But over the weekend, especially Saturday, thousands and thousands of revelers packed the historic Soulard neighborhood Saturday for the annual Mardi Gras Grand Parade and ensuing street party.
Organizers and police reported large crowds and the expected levels of mayhem. By 11 p.m., 110 revelers had been arrested; most were minors in possession of alcohol. Six people were injured after a side panel fell off their float. The incident happened after the parade near Tucker Boulevard and Lafayette Avenue. About 12 people fell off the float; six suffered injuries such as broken bones.
This year, 18 vehicles were towed from the parade route and surrounding neighborhoods. At the past two Mardi Gras parades, more than 140 cars were towed when a police sergeant with deep ties to St. Louis Metropolitan Towing enlisted off-duty officers to work with the company's tow truck drivers. This year, only on-duty officers called for tows and exclusively used the city's towing agency.
About 20 people fell off a float when a board on the side of the float broke. Some had broken bones, but none had life-threatening injuries.Still, police say the crowd was mostly well-behaved.The crowds were large despite cold and blustery conditions on Saturday.
Well at least no one got shot cuz seven got the bullet while celebratin’ Tuesday in Nawlins when two people shot at them!
According to reports, the Swagga Like Us Concert that was held at the Chaifetz Arena was more of a free for all for acts to stage than an actual concert.
More than 5,000 fans came out for “Swagger’ which was part One of 100.3 The Beat’s 10 year anniversary celebration. It was also a goodbye of sorts for headliner T.I. perform in one of his several concerts before his year long incarceration in March. According to reviews, T.I. was in rap mode without the flash and dash performing some of his greatest and current hits. He also commented on the referenced the Rihanna-Chris Brown fiasco by saying she was “going through some shit and that his homeboy was going through some shit.”
Ludacris, who preceded T.I. we heard got off the stage as quickly as he got on stage and was upstaged by his DTP label mate Shawna who sped rapped on two mikes.
St. Louis rapper Murphy Lee, who was the evening’s surprise guest, rapped his usual rap through a lot of tech difficulties, much to lee’s vocalized disappointment. He also reportedly commented on rumors that St. Lunatic leader Nelly sabotaged his solo career denying any validity to the attack and blamed himself for his solo efforts.
Added performer Jim Jones was reportedly the weakest of the acts whose performance was scattered and discombobulated. (We also heard that Jim Jones and his camp was hosting party thrown after the concert at Blackmon’s Plaza).
Other performers included STL area acts: 100.3 The beat’s Shorty Da Kid (Pictured) , East St. Louis rap duo UnLadyLike, Yung Ro with singer Tydis; and “ Vic Damone with singer Bradd Young.Lincoln U marching band Marching Musical Storm opened the concert.
Prior to the concert, T.I. joined students at Compton-Drew ILC Middle School who were assembled for his talk about education and responsibility. To see the video go to :

Just fresh off of hosting a V-Day Party at NBA All Star Weekend in Phoenix, Nelly got the green light for his own music variety Tv show. “Nelly’s Night in Vegas” is the title for the series and Nelly as host and co-executive producer. It’s unclear at the moment when and where the show will air, but the series reportedly will to be shot in Las Vegas. Each week NELLY’S NIGHT IN VEGAS will bring Hollywood’s biggest stars to Vegas, It will be an ongoing wild, high stakes party where you can bet on anything and probably everything happening. The show promises to reflect the full spectrum of the Vegas life with an endless supply of inspiration and content for Nelly and his spectrum of sidekicks, beautiful women and entourage. His private jet and red carpet lifestyle will add to the weekly excitement as will his interviews with film, television and music’s biggest stars. Well, we here at OUTTOWN are down for this, but it would have been nice if the STL coulda got in as the spot for the series (Maybe Nelly’s Night in the Lou?” ). We have plenty venues here that could have been used (Old Rock House, Club Society, Lumiere Place or even his spot Skybox) and brought Hollywood here to mix and mingle with the local stars. Oh well. Maybe we’re just wishful thinkin.

Tony Scott of the Tony Scott Show celebrated his 20th anniversary at Clear Channel last Friday. As a surprise, his former radio colleague and friend Marc Clark—who was a co-host with Scott from 1992 to 1999-- flew in from Baltimore(where he held down the morning show , Big Phat Morning Show” at Radio One's until late 2008) to be a guest on his afternoon show to celebrate with Scott and his co-host Tammie Holland (who gave OUTTOWN the heads up 2 weeks ago). On his first day back in St. Louis, Clarke said, “ I got lost downtown. It has changed so much here. The Airport lost my luggage. I’m glad Levine’s (clothing) still here. They had 6 X jeans. I’m just 3 X. On air he also told the famous Uncle earl death rattle story among others reminisced. He also mentioned that he was currently unemployed (radio One let him go November 2008)Former colleagues also called in to wish Scott well including personalities JoJo and Eric Mychaels. Scott also told the listeners that he finally got authorized his own parking space at the clear Channel garage. To secure the deal, Scott took his plea to the public and had people to voice their demands for him to receive his own parking space (he even had folk to go to his website as well, keyword: YEAHHHH MAN) Scott didn’t seem to surprised on air with his surprise with Clarke, but then again, maybe the surprise was caught off air before they got on air. Who knows. In related news, former co-host of the Tony Scott and the Breakfast Crew STL based comedian Guy Torry visited the Lou and sat in on the Tony Scott Show Tuesday. He did his Five Rules (the don’t dos) like he did when he was on the show and said that he has been on the comic tour circuit (OUTTOWN reported he was doing shows in DC with the Stuck On Stupid Tour. He also said that he just finished up the movie, Wiffler: The Ted Whitfield Story. In it he plays Reverend Cash.
Some Missouri based Yorkies who were rescued from a puppy mill in Greene County, Mo., were on the Oprah Winfrey show last Friday. The dogs and Humane Society of Missouri Prez Kathy Warnick hit the big time when a producer for Winfrey's show responded to an e-mail about the rescue. Some 90 Yorkshire terriers and one shih-tzu were taken in the raid Feb. 13 on an unlicensed breeding center near Springfield. The Humane Society wanted the dogs to be on Oprah's show to get attention about the plight of animals in puppy mills. Five actually appeared onstage. Jae said the animals are not yet ready for adoption but may be within the next month. More info at www.hsmo.org We are sure the Humane Society have had floods of calls to adopt the dogs since the show.

According to stltoday.com, Michael Kaas, a producer for the CBS "Early Show," was in town Tuesday doing advance work for an episode about how malls are responding to the difficult economic situation. The producer was here to check out ArtSpace — the new arts colony that the Regional Arts Commission has helped create with Centrum Properties, which owns Crestwood Court mall (formerly Crestwood Plaza). The unorthodox approach to using the vacated space in a retail mall has artists and cultural groups renting the space for low cost and using it for performances, galleries, studios, theaters and sales areas. The episode is scheduled to be broadcast within the next two weeks.

A shocker in the STL journalism field as veteran news reporter Alvin Reid, city editor and reporter for 12 years for the weekly St. Louis American, was fired from his job Monday.

KMJM personality Tammi Holland sent OUTTOWN an uplifting email from dress collector Tracie Ousley.It reads:There have been a lot of parents that have lost their jobs and have daughters that may not be able to participate in a day that you can never get back, their senior prom. I was sitting at home one evening and was thinking," what can I do to make a difference." As I was going through my closet, I came across some formal dresses that I had from either weddings or formal events, it struck me. "I can start a collection and give back to the community." So I called a girlfriend of mine and she thought that this was a wonderful idea. So here we are.
