Today (Jan. 21), MTV reality star Markice Anthony Moore was released from jail on bond.  The 23-year-old was charged with cruelty to children after an investigation determined he abused his infant daughter.

Authorities said the child’s arms, wrists, right leg, right collar bone and three ribs were broken. The infant girl also had bruises to her face, eyes, ears, back, chest and rear after being with Moore on August 1.

Moore, who was released from Cobb County Jail on $20,000 bond, was known as “Kesan” on the first season of the MTV reality show “From G’s to Gents.” The show, which is hosted by Atlantan Fonsworth Bentley is to help transform misdirected young men into sophisticated gentleman. Moore was evicted from the house/club on Episode 5, because of anger problems and threatening his housemates with a knife.

Moore also had a role in the 2006 movie “ATL” and in a 2009 episode of Tyler Perry’s sitcom “Meet the Browns.”

Reality star diva Sheree Whitfield of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ is taking on a new role- actress. The feisty fashionista will star in a stage play called  ”Heaven I Need a Hug.” Whitfield will appear in Kendrick D. Young’s production about love and betrayal.  The play starts in Dallas, TX on January 19 and runs until January 24.

There’s no word if Whitfield’s character will portray the ambitious businesswoman on season one or  a “Who gon’ check me boo?” drama queen in season two. Either way, the socialite is returning for more wig-pulling catfights and fashion shows in the third installment of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’.

DuBose Entertainment and BET Networks will give viewers an unprecedented look into the life of Michael Vick, with a new original docu-series THE MICHAEL VICK PROJECT. The series premiering on Tuesday, February 2 at 10:00 p.m.*, produced by DuBose Entertainment, MV7 Productions and Category 5 Entertainment, will follow the iconic and polarizing professional football player as he journeys on the road to redemption — in both his personal and professional life. The cameras will not only capture the NFL star’s return to football after a two-year prison sentence stemming from his association with a dog fighting ring, but will also focus on much of his life prior to that turning point. Viewers will be given an unfiltered and personal experience of Vick as he restores his past and starts fresh for the future — not only for himself, but for his family and fiancee, Kijafa.

 ”It’s our hope that this documentary series will serve as means towards Michael Vick’s search for his own personal truth and how the choices he made ultimately changed his life,” said James DuBose, CEO, DuBose Entertainment. “Mike’s life may be unique, but his story is one that could be told ten times over by young men who find themselves faced with trials and tribulations. His truth has come by way of bad choices. His triumph will come by way of his commitment to change.”

“Michael Vick’s story is about second chances and we are excited to have the opportunity to tell his complete story,” said Loretha Jones, President, Original Programming, BET Networks. “What happened to Michael is endemic of what is happening to young Black men today. Michael could be anyone’s brother, father, uncle or son. It is our hope that this project will give viewers a glimpse of how he is rebuilding his life and moving forward as a human being and not just another sports figure.”

 After a difficult childhood, Vick’s athletic gifts led him to become the 2001 #1 draft pick and the highest paid player in the NFL at that time. However, misguided decisions cost him his lucrative contract, his freedom and much more. Once released from prison, Vick found himself bankrupt and disconnected from his loved ones who had stood by him through thick and thin. He also discovered that the society that had once revered him was now split down the middle. Now, having signed a contract with the Philadelphia Eagles, Vick is back on track to repair his troubled past by reclaiming a prominent place in the NFL and revitalizing his badly damaged image in the community by becoming a spokesperson for the Humane Society. The series, both serious in tone and nature, will create a gripping, poignant and intimate look inside the world of one of the most dynamic players in NFL history.

 ”I am not doing this documentary to show people that I’m back and unchanged by the experiences of the last few years,” said Vick. “I’m allowing the cameras to see the truth — the good, the bad and the ugly results of my decisions — with the sincere hope that it will positively affect others’ lives and prevent someone out there from making the same mistakes I did.”

 Category 5’s Brian Sher, who produced T.I.’s “Road To Redemption” and who works with Vick in his off the field endeavors met with Dubose and Vick to discuss the documentary. Once they agreed on a true rendering of Vick’s life, they agreed that BET would be the natural fit for such a project. The series will be executive produced by DuBose Entertainment, Michael Vick’s MV7 Productions and Brian Sher’s Category 5 Entertainment.

Producer Shawty Redd, who is charged with the New Year’s Day murder of 35-year-old Damon Martin, was released from jail on Tuesday (January 12), according to Captain Jason Bolton of the Henry County (Georgia) Police and a representative for the Henry County Superior Court Clerk. The producer (real name: Demetrius Lee Stewart), who has worked with Snoop Dogg, Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy, had his bail set at $200,000 at a hearing on Tuesday afternoon, the authorities said, and was given clear instructions not to leave Henry County and to wear an ankle bracelet.

Redd was arrested on January 1 after police responded to a call about an early morning shooting at Stewart’s home in Hampton, Georgia. According to police, the producer was involved in a physical altercation at his home with Martin, who was described as an “acquaintance.” The confrontation turned physical and Stewart shot and killed Martin, according to the report. Bolton told MTV News that Stewart himself called 911 to alert police about the shooting. Bolton also said Stewart was arrested a few hours later at police headquarters after more questioning by detectives.
