Drake, who was born and raised in Toronto, graces the side of the aircraft along with the title of his latest CD, "Thank Me Later." The flight offers 12 first-class and 138 economy seats, with the widest cabin available for single aisle jet liners.

The plane made its debut flight from Los Angeles to Toronto on Wednesday, ending with a red-carpet party on the airport tarmac.

Monica and Trey Songz Announce Tour Dates Tuesday, June 15, 2010 R&B Diva Monica and singer Trey Songz have announced their upcoming tour titled The Passion, Pain, and Pleasure Tour.

according to Web blog site Sandra Rose:

In a press release sent out to all the blogs, except for Sandra Rose, Trey said:

"This has been an amazing year for me... The 'Passion, Pain, & Pleasure Tour' is not just another show; it will be an up close and personal experience for everyone. With the help of one of the best R&B female vocalists out today, my sister Monica, we promise you a night to remember."

Shaking my head at Trey actually believing he is the headliner of the tour and that Mo is touring with him.

I told you about this tour back in April when I spoke with Monica who was doing spot dates with Trey at the time. When she saw my post, she laughed and said, "When did I take that picture with Trey?"

Anyway, before we get into the tour dates, I feel that I must remind you guys once again that when you see a photo credit on my blog that says "Photos," yet there is only one photo in the blog post, it means that the picture is actually two separate images that I Photoshopped together. (See my Best Photoshopped Photos of 2008 post)

I sometimes do this to illustrate my post when I can't find a picture online of two artists together- and because bloggers frequently swipe pics from my blog without crediting their source. From now on I will indicate Photoshopped pics with the words 'Photo illustration.'

I got a kick out of seeing this photo of Monica and Trey Songz all over the blogosphere, but it is Photoshopped. So please read my photo caption before you gank pictures off my blog.

The Passion, Pain, and Pleasure Tour kicks off in Shreveport, LA on August 6 with a stop at Atlanta's Fox Theater on August 13.
