      *L. Londell McMillan, the new co-owner and executive publisher of The Source, was to host a re-launch party for the magazine last night at Home on West 27th Street to promote the I Am Change political group. The guest list included Queen Latifah, Gayle King, Lil' Kim, and Fabolous, reports the New York Post. McMillan, an entertainment lawyer who counts Stevie Wonder, Prince and Spike Lee as clients, took the magazine out of bankruptcy in August. The Source's previous owners, David Mays and Ray "Benzino" Scott, were pushed out in 2006, after Benzino forced editors to plug his rap group, Almighty RSO.
