A new book makes startling claims about Amy Winehouse, debt takes down a former Roc-a-Fella mogul, and Justin Bieber gets animated.

  • The Rihanna rumors just don't stop. This past weekend during a fiery argument with a fan on Twitter, rapper Wale dropped that he's getting lovin' from the pop songstress. Whether it's true or not, Chris Brown is probably catching feelings, just a little bit. [Bossip]

  • According to a forthcoming biography, singer Amy Winehouse attempted suicide at 10 years old, following her parents' separation. A friend allegedly found her "foaming at the mouth" after an overdose on pills. The book also claims Winehouse was fascinated by music legends who died young, including Kurt Cobain and Janis Joplin.

  • Damon Dash rose alongside Jay-Z to make Roc-a-Fella Records one of the hottest labels in hip hop. These days, Dash is battling crippling tax debt, owing large sums in New Jersey and New York. He also pays thousands each month in child support. Definitely a stark change from his days atop hip hop's throne. [Vibe]

  • Now that Justin Bieber's much-hyped cameo on The Simpsons is behind us, how did it go over? [MTV]
