Days after PepsiCo. Inc. officially cut ties with Lil Wayne, the renowned soda beverage company has decided to meet with late civil rights symbol Emmett Till's family.

According to reports, the face-to-face meeting will take place today (May 8).

PepsiCo Inc. officials will meet Wednesday with members of Emmett Till's family and the Rev. Al Sharpton. Sharpton continued to press for the meeting last week after the company's partnerships with Lil Wayne and Tyler, the Creator, of Odd Future to promote Mountain Dew sparked controversies. The meeting to be held at PepsiCo headquarters in Purchase comes as an outcry over offensive lyrics increases.

JUSTIN BIEBER will have a "brief cameo" on "The Simpsons" this coming Sunday. He's voicing an animated version of himself. The episode is titled "The Fabulous Faker Boy".

A producer says, quote, "{Justin tries to get into a talent show that Bart is playing piano in, and they won't admit him...draw your own conclusions."

HIGHLIGHTS: JENNIFER LOPEZ was on a video shoot in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday, when gunshots were reportedly fired nearby. Her security team rushed her to safety, which HAD to remind her a little of the time she was rushed away from that notorious nightclub shooting in 1999 when she was with DIDDY.

R&B singer Trey Songz reportedly caught a big break in a recent strip club assault case which accused him of hitting a woman in the face with cash during an album release party last summer.

According to reports, prosecutors came to the conclusion there is not enough evidence to pursue a hefty legal case against Songz.

It's unclear if the woman was a stripper...or just one of those sexy waitresses that don't get naked (so disappointing, right?). Officials investigated the incident...and ultimately determined they couldn't prove he did anything illegal, so Trey is in the clear. But the Queens D.A.'s office tells TMZ...even if Trey did throw cash, "There would be no clear case of misconduct. There was just no high level of recklessness." So, what's the lesson here? If you're gonna make it rain...be gentle. (TMZ)

"I just got back from Chevron ExtraMile, I was having such a huge craving for an energy drink that I had to leave the radio station and go down the street and pick one up! Chevron ExtraMile has a great deal on Rockstar energy drinks! I will be back tomorrow! That's for sure. Chevron ExtraMile. Extra easy. Extra value. At select Chevron locations."

HIGHLIGHTS: During an Australian radio interview, CHRIS BROWN admitted he and RIHANNA aren't together. He said, quote, "I'm always gonna love that person. I can't be focused on wife-ing someone that young. I need to be the best Chris Brown I can be."

HIGHLIGHTS: JUSTIN BIEBER was "attacked" onstage in Dubai last night. Security immediately went after the guy...and Justin's piano was knocked over in the madness...but Justin is OK. His rep says, quote, "All is fine. A man ran onstage...tried to grab Justin...{and} knocked the piano over. He was a fan."

We're always hearing about artists making INSANE demands in their tour riders...and this one is definitely worth mentioning:

Britain's "Daily Star" tabloid claims BEYONCE demands that the walls of her dressing room be "freshly painted white"...and that the bathroom has a NEW toilet seat, and is stocked with only RED toilet paper. (???)

Supposedly, she also wants "alkaline water that is served at exactly 21 degrees," hand-carved ice-balls for her to "suck on," and special "titanium drinking straws" that cost almost $1,000 each.

On top of that, she needs "100% pure cotton clothing for staff," which the "Daily Star" says might be to "save Beyonce from allergic reactions."

After working a widespread scare with new seizure reports yesterday (May 1), Young Money's Lil Wayne has assured fans he is fine despite being hospitalized in Los Angeles.

Hours after the scary news started circulating, Weezy hopped onto his Twitter page to calm everyone down.

"I'm fine. Thank u," Wayne tweeted May 1st. (Lil Wayne's Twitter)
