| LEGAL WOES: American Express Sues Actress Jasmine Guy For $86,000! Posted: 14 Apr 2011 09:38 AM PDT
Actress Jasmine Guy may be going through some difficult times financially if the lawsuit recently filed by American Express is any indication of her finances. Get the deets on Jasmine's bills bills bills inside... The recession has officially struck Whitley Gilbert--looks like she was among those caught up in the economic downturn. American Express is sueing "A Different World" star Jasmine Guy for $86,241 in unpaid credit card debt and associated attorney fees, delinquency costs and interest. That's A LOT of debt. In papers filed and posted on RadarOnline.com, AmEx said, Jasmine Guy "has received the monthly [billing] statements without protest, and has not advised American Express that such statements were in error in any respect." So far, Jasmine has not responded publicly...and she probably won't. But I hope she gets her finances in order. If not...there's always a new Tyler Perry production on the road. She can sing, dance and act...must be something Madea could throw together for her. Read the lawsuit here.

| CANDIDS: Romeo's Sexy Sweats + Mel B's Bumpy Stroll Posted: 14 Apr 2011 08:57 AM PDT
Sexilicious Romeo was snapped coming and going from "DWTS" practice. And Mel B. was spotted on her baby bump stroll in London... "DWTS" contestant Romeo was spotted arriving at practice in a tight white ribbed t-shirt:
I mean DAMN Romeo... And we appreciate the work he puts in at the gym.
I hope he does well this week...for purely selfish reasons.
And over in London with a "DWTS" alum....
Mel B. and her lightening bolt tee were spotted leaving London Studios yesterday. She had just finished filming an appearance on Loose Women and she brought her daughter Angel Iris along:
Awww.
Mel's so cute preggers! And later last night:
A glowing and pregnant Mel was spotted heading to dinner at the Mo Tai restaurant in Parsons Green, London.
She looks really happy and I'm loving the outfit. Cute!

Beyonce's back on her Girl Power tip with her brand new comeback track. The song is called "Who Rule The World (Girls)." And a snippet of the track she's been shooting the video for just leaked.
Peep it after the jump.... She says in the upbeat tempo song: We're strong enough to bear the children/Then get back to business Ironic choice of words Bey. Now the on-the-set pics we've been seeing lately are starting to make sense. We feelin' it so far? |

Christina Milian and Tristan Wilds were spotted out at a launch party in L.A. yesterday while Kelis teamed up with designer Matthew Williamson to launch his Impulse label at Macy's in NYC. See candids inside... Yesterday, Audrina Patridge celebrated the launch of her new reality show with Bongo at The Redbury Hotel In Hollywood.
Both Christina Milian and Tristan Wilds came out to support her.
The "90210" actor and singer brought along his trademark smile and smirk. Such a cutie! He kicked it with reality tv star Audrina Patridge. Sidenote: I am a closeted "The Hills" STAN. And I want to know WHO gave Audrina--the most boring person in the franchise--her own show? Just saying.
Audrina also had some fun with Christina Milian exchanging clothes. Can these shorts be any smaller? And the fab Christina got a little retail therapy in before she left.
And over on the east coast.....
Kelis teamed up with designer Matthew Williamson for the launch of his Impulse label at Macy's Herald Square. Though the stage was tiny, Kelis still put it down.
I like the dress, but not the full outfit. Very Matthew Williamson though with all the bright and airy clors.
She posed with Matthew at the event.
We do love Kelis though because she's always fashion forward and in her own lane. Now are those socks or did she tie bows to her legs?

| MUSIC FAB: Da Brat & Jermaine Dupri's "Look At Me Now Remix" Posted: 14 Apr 2011 06:43 AM PDT
Now that Da Brat's out the slammer, it's only right So So Def gives a nod to their early days. Jermaine Dupri and Brat decided to rock a remix together for old time's sake.
Peep their "Look At Me Now Remix" under the cut....
Brat and J.D. borrowed Chris Brown's beat to spit their own ish. And I'm actually feelin' it. I almost forgot what it was like to hear a rap track without a basic and elementary gimmicky flow. Ahhh. Thanks Brat. |
| ON THE SET: Beyonce Busts Out More Bright Colors For New Video Posted: 14 Apr 2011 06:07 AM PDT
Beyonce Knowles was spotted working it out on the sandy L.A. set of her upcoming music video. It was Day 3 of taping, and the bold and lavish outfits continued.
New pics and deets from the set when you read on....
Bey looked gorge in this red number paired with Alexander McQueen black thigh high boots with gold embellished heels. The song, the song title, and the theme of the video still haven't been confirmed, but it's obviously going to be visually eye catching. It's also been reported that the director is Francis Lawrence this time around, with Frank Gatson choreographing the shoot.
Bey switched into a yellow high slit dress with black gloves and black boots.
And the dancers:
Very interesting. You ready? Photos via INF

| IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Salt-N-Pepa Reminisces & Performs On "Oprah"! Posted: 14 Apr 2011 05:34 AM PDT Sandra "Pepa" Denton, Cheryl "Salt" Wray, and Deidra "Spinderella" Roper hit up the Rock Goddesses episode of "The Oprah Show" yesterday and they indeed rocked it all the way out.
The ladies dropped some nuggets on how they got started, which other big stars worked at the same first-job as them, and performed a medley of their hits. Read on if you missed it....
Pep and Salt and Spin dished to Oprah about how they got their start. Spin was 16 and her parents weren't feeling her going on the road--until Pepa promised to take care of her. Salt revealed that she and Pep met in college when they were both looking for a job--and they both ended up working a telemarketing job (Oprah's first job as well!). And Martin Lawrence (who used to open for Salt-N-Pepa) and Kid-N-Play worked at the exact same place as them!
The ladies--who wore Rachel Roy and Dolce & Gabbana--performed "Push It," "What A Man," and "Shoop." BONUS: Sister Sledge was also on the show to perform, and they still look like ya mama's record cover. Gorgeous. They brought out all the women rockers from the show -- Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crow, Pat Benatar, Salt-N-Pepa, Avril Lavigne and Miley Cyrus -- for "We Are Family."

| *UPDATED* Kobe Bryant Fined $100,000+Apologizes For Hurling Homophobic Slur At Referee Posted: 13 Apr 2011 12:59 PM PDT  Kobe Bryant has issued a statement apologizing for last night's incident where he let his emotions get the best of him and was seen mouthing the words "f**king f**got" at an NBA referee. Get the deets inside....
*UPDATE* Kobe was fined $100,000 by the NBA commissioner for this incident. "Kobe Bryant's comment during last night’s game was offensive and inexcusable," NBA Commissioner David Stern said in a statement. "While I'm fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated. Accordingly, I have fined Kobe $100,000. Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society." During a tense moment in last nights Lakers Vs. Spurs game, Kobe Bryant was seen mouthing the word "f**got" towards a referee who charged him with a technical foul. He issued a statement earlier today saying,
He was forced to respond because the backlash was swift and intense. The Human Rights Campaign lashed out at Kobe saying it is, "a disgrace for Kobe Bryant to use such horribly offensive and distasteful language, especially when millions of people are watching." In a statement to TMZ they continued:
The Lakers front office was also contacted by The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Discrimination (GLAAD). And they're far from happy. I see ish is gettng REAL right before the playoffs.... |
| FOOLYWANG VIDEO PART II: Brooke-Lynn Changes Up Story, Says Mister Cee Is "Gay And Confused" Posted: 13 Apr 2011 11:26 AM PDT We previously told you about Brooke-Lynn/The Pink Lady/Lawrence Campbell, the 20-year-old drag queen arrested along with Mister Cee for lewd conduct. And despite all his denials yesterday, now there is a second video where Brooke-Lynn says he thinks Mister Cee is "gay and confused." Watch it inside.... I honestly hd to take a few minutes to digest and comprehend what the hell just happened in this here vid. So here's the breakdown for those of you who will be eqaully confused: Although Brooke-Lynn said she didn't want to garner any "fame" from her alleged incident with Mister Cee, he continues to sit in front of pop-up cameras to talk about what happened with "interviewers." In today's video, he pulled his hair back into a bun and got a little more specific about what really went down with Mister Cee. He brought along "Jha Jha" to cosign and also speak about HIS OWN run-in with Mister Cee. From the new interview, we learn that Mister Cee has paid at least $200 to feel on Jha Jha's thighs during a previous encounter and he offered him $200 for oral sex. Jha Jha did not want to do it without a condom but regrets he and Mister Cee did not remain in contact because he could have become a sugar daddy to him. Sigh..... Brooke-Lynn reveals that Mister Cee never "actually" asked for oral sex. The Pink Lady thought that because Mister Cee had hooked Jha Jha up during a previous incident (where no sex happened) that he might also get some free cash. He says he noticed Mister Cee pull out a wad of cash but did not see Cee's actual penis until the cops came. By the time he realized Mister Cee might have wanted oral sex, they were getting arrested. How he didn't know that's what the point of this in-car meeting was is beyond me. Brooke-Lynn says again and again....he is not a prostitute. And this was a messed up situation that he got caught up in. He was just hoping to get a little cash from this random dude. But during a disturbing part of the interview, Jha Jha does admit that he initially planned to rob Mister Cee. SMH... Towards the end of the 15 min clip, Brooke-Lynn is asked about Mister Cee and he says he thinks he is "confused and gay." Alrighty then. Watch Brooke-Lynn and Jha Jha introduce themselves here and see the full interview above. |

Last night, the Scream 4 New York Screening was hosted by Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson & Harvey Weinstein at the Crosby Street Hotel. The hosts turned up the celeb factor with guests like Tika Sumpter, Gabby Sidibe and Russell Simmons. See the pics inside... After celebs walked the red carpet at the Crosby Street Hotel, they hit the after party at Mr. H at the Mondrian Soho. "Gossip Girl" and "The Game" star Tika Sumpter paired some leopard-print pumps with this orange leather jacket and black pants. Loving this look. And Tika's quickly becoming one of my faves.
Those shoes are hot.
Russell Simmons posed with actress Mallika Sherawat.
50 Cent posed with Scream franchise star David Arquette in this great photo.
Dude does clean up nice in a tailored suit.
Gabourey Sidibe was there and she wasn't wearing Uggs. I'm feelin' the boots. 50 Cent posed with his BFF Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Gotta love the bromances. Eve was in the place looking fly as usual.
And new red-head Estelle posed with Tika.

| Jennifer Hudson Rocks "DWTS" Stage With "Feeling Good" & "Don't Look Down" Posted: 13 Apr 2011 09:47 AM PDT It was a sad night for Sugar Ray Leonard as he was voted off "Dancing With The Stars" last night. But Jennifer Hudson, who was recently named to PEOPLE Mag's Most Beautiful People list, was on hand to entertain the crowd before the bad news was delivered.
We've got both of her performances from last night's results show when you read on.... Jenny performed tracks off her album I Remember Me album for the crowd as the "DWTS" dancers performed. She did "Felling Good" above. And she performed, in a cute purple mini dress, "Don't Look Down" for the first time on tv:
Great look for Jenny!
