Unlike Rhimes' hit, NBC's new series seems to tiptoe around what it means to have a black leading lady.
Meagan Good in Deception (Will Hart/NBC); Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn in Scandal (Randy Holmes/ABC)
(The Root) -- The comparisons were inevitable and obvious. NBC's newest murder mystery, Deception,starring Meagan Good, looks a lot like ABC's Revenge, a show that has chronicled the lifestyles of the rich and homicidal since last season.
Nearly every mention of Deception, which premiered Monday night, is sure to cite the new show's clear nod to the ABC hit. Although scandal and the wealthy have always made for must-see TV, in an interview withUSA Today, Good bulleted the disparate plotlines as if they were practiced talking points.
"I think this is really different, in the sense that it has all these elements from great shows that people love, but it's really its own thing because of the love triangle, the family drama, the murder mystery, and because this girl is living a double life," said Good, making a case for a fresh take on an old subject.
But Deception has something in common with another ABC hit -- something that isn't getting much attention. I'm talking, of course, about Scandal, the Kerry Washington-led ensemble soap in which another strong (if flawed) black leading lady has made it her job to solve problems while being mired in her own

CNN) -- One day, Urooj Khan literally jumped for joy after scoring a $1 million winner on an Illinois lottery scratch ticket.
The next month, he was dead.
The Cook County medical examiner's office initially ruled Khan's manner of death natural. But after being prompted by a relative, the office revisited the case and eventually determined there was a lethal amount of cyanide in Khan's system.
"That ... led us to issue an amended death certificate that (established) cyanide toxicity as the cause of death, and the manner of death as homicide," Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Steve Cina said Monday.
Why did Khan, an Indian immigrant who was described as a well-liked, hardworking and successful businessman, die? And who is responsible?
Finding that out is now up to the Chicago police. No arrests have been made.
"We are investigating it as a murder, and we're working closely with the medical examiner's office," Chicago police spokeswoman Melissa Stratton said Monday.

Boxer Evander Holyfield, 50, went from rags to riches at 21 and struggled with money after his rise to heavyweight champion.
Atlanta (CNN) -- Retirement terrifies sports stars. The end of a glittering career can feel like falling off a cliff to an athlete who thrives on fame and fortune. And the longer the career, the harder the end game seems to be.
For living legends, it's especially tough to know how to quit. World heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield turned 50 this year -- but he still wants to box professionally.
"I'm not retired," he says. "If I can get a championship fight, I will."
He won't fight just anyone, though -- only top boxers. Because he holds five heavyweight titles, he tells CNN that young boxers could want to challenge him just because they have something to prove.
Holyfield can still draw a crowd, nearly 30 years after his professional debut. During a recent visit to CNN Center in Atlanta, fans swarmed him, taking pictures and shaking his hand.

With over 16 rap years already under his belt, N.O.R.E. is ready for a change. When the Queens, New York, MC premieres his new music video for "Tadow" this Sunday as MTV Jams' Jam of the Week, he will do so not under his Noreaga moniker, but as P.A.P.I., the rap name that he has chosen to release his upcoming Student of the Game LP under.
"Tadow" features 2 Chainz, Pusha T, French Montana, and of course P.A.P.I., who, despite the name change, offers up the same free-wheeling, street-bred delivery that made N.O.R.E. fans first fall in love. So why the change?

(CNN) -- Let's begin with a disclaimer: Nas doesn't endorse the following sentence.
But he's the greatest lyricist of all time.
Those words were carefully chosen: "lyricist" over "rapper" or "hip-hop artist;" "greatest" instead of "most successful;" "all time" rather than "today."
Those distinctions are important. Still, Nas isn't buying it.
"It's wayyyyyy, way, way too early in our lives," he said when asked where he fits among history's best MCs. "It's great to put a list together, but don't take it too seriously because your list won't matter 10 years from now or 15 years from now. It'll be a different list."
OK, no lists then; just a strong case for Nas being the best rhymesmith ever, the GOAT, numero uno, and a humble concession that this is but one man's opinion and yours are enthusiastically welcomed below.
With "Life is Good," Nas dropped his ninth No. 1 hip-hop album since 1994. Seven of those have gone platinum, which places him second among rappers only to Jay-Z with 11. (We're not counting compilations or collaborations here, only original solo efforts, and yes, Tupac Shakur had nine, but five were posthumous releases.)

Nice crib!
When Beyonce's husband Jay-Z watches basketball games at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, their daughter, Blue, 12 months, chills downstairs in a nursery!

"Jay rents a luxurious basement suite for $1 million a year," a source says in the new issue of of Us Weekly, on stands now. "It has an area for Blue filled with toys."
Jay's VIP space -- the priciest of 11 spreads for rent (average cost: $550,000) -- also serves as an adult playground. "It's all glass with a champagne bar and TV screen," says the source. "Jay lets friends use his digs when he's not there."

In October, Beyonce helped Jay-Z close out his eight performances at the Barclays Center as a surprise guest. Blue's parents, who wed in April 2008, performed "Crazy in Love" together, and shared a kiss on stage.
"Of course I had to let BK touch the stage in BK," Jay-Z joked to the audience. "Well, BKC now
