P. Diddy handpicked Day 26 in Season 4 of “Making the Band” — and now they’re being accused of handpicking one of their new songs straight from someone else’s album!

In a copyright infringement notice fired off to Bad Boy Records — the company ran and founded by Diddy — singer Kirby Shields alleges his song “I’m Just Getting Started” is “identical” to Day 26’s “Just Getting Started,” released in April.

And here’s the rub: Shields says the copycat track was produced by Christian Davis Stalnecker, the same producer he hired to work “exclusively” for him back in ’07.

Check out the two versions below:

They just did it — Nike has finally decided to give back the tapes they confiscated showing LeBron James getting dunked on by a college kid.

Nike henchmen took the tapes from two accredited journalists moments after Xavier’s Jordan Crawford threw it down on King James at his Nike sponsored summer skills camp earlier this month.

The decision to take the tapes ignited a huge controversy and speculation that the Swoosh didn’t want LeBron, a huge Nike spokesperson, to be seen in a bad light.

Nike claims it only snatched the tapes based on a policy that no pickup games be filmed.

But now — 2 days after TMZ released the first copy of the dunk — Nike is finally doing the right thing. However, it’s unclear when they will hand the tapes back to the journalists.

Beyonce‘s sister finally found a way to set herself apart from her more famous family member — she’s the Knowles with the shaved head now.

She must have been sick of Beyonce getting all the good buzz.
