Before Tracy Morgan was that dude on Saturday Night Live and, subsequently, 30 Rock, he had a much different career trajectory. He was a model, of sorts, showing off the best fades and thin-lined mustaches for the posters you see in barbershops. That's right, Tracy Morgan was a hair model.

Yesterday, on his personal website, Morgan alluded to his previous career, posting a picture of a barber shop door with the text: "Before I made it big I modeled for this barber shop poster." Which was followed by a close-up image of Morgan back in the day. By the looks of things, Morgan was doing his best to imitate Al B. Sure's signature waves that had the ladies going wild in the late-'80s.

Still, we have to take a slight objection to the comedian's pencil mustache. Luckily, he's decided to ditch the 'stache as the years have gone on. Hey, at least he's rocking a fly mesh jersey.

Alex Rodriguez has put himself in quite the pickle. And we're not talking the base-running kind. Word has it that Bud Selig will potentially try to ban A-Rod due to his various involvements with illegal performance-enhancing drugs. And while this will surely be a huge blow to him, taking away his beloved game of baseball, he's got a pretty comfortable pile of cash to fall back on and catch him. Included in that is his Maybach, which he was seen driving in around a minor league facility recently. Our point: Even if this does play out as many are hoping, he's gonna be just fine, thanks to that horrid, horrid contract he was given.

Back in 2011, the Vikings drafted offensive lineman DeMarcus Love in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft. However, because of injury, he hasn't played in a single regular season game for Minnesota yet. And that isn't going to change until at least the fifth game of the 2013-14 NFL season.

Late yesterday, the NFL announced that they were suspending Love for the first four games of the upcoming season because he recently violated the league policy on performance-enhancing drugs. Love's agent told CBS Sports that he failed a drug test after taking a sleep aid that he bought at GNC. But regardless of why he failed the test, the bottom line is that he failed it and will have to pay the consequences for it.

"DeMarcus deeply regrets this incident," his agent told CBS Sports. "He looks forward to resuming his playing career for the Vikings organization and contributing to the 2013 football season."

Resuming? Er, how about "starting"? If—and this is a big if now—the Vikings decide to keep Love on the roster this season, he better prove that he's been worth all this trouble by making a contribution to the team immediately.

Justin Bieber has a diamond "Baby."

 The pop star's hit "Baby" was RIAA certified Diamond in May, and has hit the 12 times Platinum level, which makes "Baby" the top certified song in RIAA history.

Including digital downloads and a percentage of online streams, "Baby" has been purchased a whopping 12 million times. "Baby" is one of only four Diamond certified songs since RIAA has tracked sales.

 With his new bling, is Bieber officially the new king of pop?

The Rock Band Day Above Ground just released the video of every man's dream "Asian Girlz" and the internet lashes out and calls this video "The Most Racist Video Ever". I'm not too hip to the Asian Culture but if put one of the finest asians I've seen in Lingerie is racist then fuck you. Stop being sensitive.

I sincerely apologize to all who feels that I set Asian women back 50 yrs. I know I lost respect from a lot of ppl. It wasn't my intention

The band defended itself on their YouTube page, but that's hardly stemmed the outrage from around the world. Watch the video above.
