TLC is the castle for shows we would probably never think of, we would say we would never watch, but once viewed, are undeniably irresistable, in a train-wreck kind of way - and Breaking Amish sounds like it will fit right within the palace walls.

The 10 part series follows five Amish men and women, and one Mennonite woman, as they struggle with the decision to ditch their traditional customs in pursuit of an alternative path.

Will U be tuning in to TLC this year??

According to reports in TMZ, the rapper was apparently working on a music video in Brooklyn at some point on Saturday, and around 4:00 a.m., he returned home after the shoot.

Apparently, when he got to his house, another car pulled in behind him and blocked his driveway -- after which three hooded gunmen apparently
