Estelle, David Banner & Daley Rock Out To "Benz" At Shanghai Auto Show + Tyrese Gibson Shares The Best Advice He Ever Got

Posted: 28 Apr 2011 06:39 AM PDT

 

Estelle, David Banner and Daley  flew to the Shanghai Auto Show to perform the David Banner produced single "Benz" in honor of Mercedes Benz 125th anniversary.   See the pics inside and find out about Tyrese Gibson's new advice book hitting The New York Times Bestseller list.

 

Grammy winners Estelle and David Banner debuted their collaboration with emerging talent Daley called “Benz” at the Shanghai Auto Show recently.  The trio were invited by Mercedes Benz to commemorate their 125th anniversary. 


 

The song was inspired by Janis Joplin’s classic  “Mercedes Benz.”

 

Meanwhile, Estelle is in the studio preparing her All of Me album which is scheduled to be released later this year.

 

In case you missed it, watch Estelle, David Banner and Daley hin the "Benz" video here: 

 

 

 

And in bookstores....

Tyrese Gibson has written a self-help book called How To Get Out Of Your Own Way.   The book seeks to guide the reader into an "infinitely richer" life while giving an honest recount of his troubled background from the Watts section in L.A. to music stardom,

In the book, he shares the best piece of advice his mentor Will Smith ever gave him.

The first thing he dropped on me was you can often tell how far your life and career will go based on the five people you spend the most time with so I had to really sit back and really marinate on that. So I said, 'So if I have a problem with my life I should have a problem with the people in my life.' He was like, 'Yes, exactly.' So that's when the mission began to better my surroundings and keep everybody around me sharp because it's very easy to get lackadaisical and have people that work with you and for you to just go through the motions.

The book is in stores now and recently hit The New York Times Bestseller list.   

 

CANDIDS: Halle Berry & Billy D. Williams Get Kissy + Zoe Saldana Goes Shopping & Rihanna Bows Out

Posted: 28 Apr 2011 05:37 AM PDT

Three of our favorite YBF chicks were spotted out and about in the L.A. area yesterday.  Come inside to see Halle Berry, Zoe Saldana and Rihanna.

 

 

Halle Berry was spotted placing a goodbye smooch on the lips of screen legend Billy D. Williams yesterday.

The pair had just finished having lunch.

And Halle looked fab in her black and pink sundress.

Meanwhile, Zoe Saldana was photographed running errands around town.

And even during a casual stroll down the block she looks like a movie star.

And Rihanna was spotted leaving Phillippe Chow in West Hollywood.

RiRi recently told "Top of the Pops" that “When I have a day off, I usually just laze around for as long as possible. I watch TV in bed, blast music out really loudly, or maybe go shopping,”

She rocked a large blue bow in her hair.

 

I think the bow is fun idea.  I wonder if it will catch on.

SPORTS: Denver Broncos' Jason Hunter Stabbed + Albert Haynesworth Rejects Plea Deal For Sexual Assault Charge

Posted: 27 Apr 2011 02:01 PM PDT

Police are reporting that Denver Broncos baller Jason Hunter has been stabbed by his girlfriend, making him the second NFLer to be involved in a domestic dispute over the past week.  Get the deets inside and find out about Albert Haynesworth rejecting the government's plea deal over a sexual assault charge.

 

We told you a few days ago that Miami Dolphins receiver Brandon Marshall was stabbed by his wife and now, police in Michigan say that Broncos defensive end Jason Hunter was stabbed by his girlfriend.

Jason, who used to play for the Detroit Lions, was taken to the hospital and is in stable condition.  The Broncos released a statement today saying they were in the process of gathering more information.

"Our thoughts are with Jason, and we are hopeful he makes a quick recovery," the team said. "Out of respect for his privacy, we will not have additional comment on the matter at this time."

 

SMH.....the NFL season can't start soon enough.  We need to get those men out on the field because sitting at home is not working.

 

Also in sports.....

 

A. Scott Bolden, the attorney for Washington Redskins' Albert Haynesworth, rejected the government's offer of a plea deal after Albert was indicted on a sexual assault charge saying, the offer was "not much of a plea deal."

Prosecutors alleged that Albert fondled the breasts of a waitress at the W Hotel in Washington, D.C., during an event in February, but A. Scott disputes that.

"All of the very inflated and beefed-up facts that the W employees have put together, to make fit nicely with the government case, the government has to prove those allegations now," he said.

Although the details of the plea are secret, the charge could bring 180 days in jail or a $1,000 fine.

Jennifer was all smiles as she left her hotel in London with a fresh nail job.

I've noticed that JHud stays in a pair of leggings.

And as always, she made time for the fans.

 

 

 

We told you previously that VH1 and Queen Latifah's Flavor Unit Entertainment would be bringing a new scripted series to the network called "Single Ladies" and it debuts Monday, June 6th at 9pm.  The series will mark VH1's first foray into the hour-long scripted series
genre and will kick off with a two-hour movie event on Monday, May 30th at 9pm before the one-hour ten episode series kicks off a week later.
 

"Single Ladies"  asks the question: What do women really want in a relationship?
 

It 's about Val, Keisha, and April, three best friends with different philosophies on sex and relationships, The lead characters are:

Val (Stacey Dash) is an ambitious, aspiring fashion mogul who believes in fate, romance and finding
that special someone to be with forever.

Keisha (LisaRaye McCoy) is a former video dancer who believes in making her own luck, her own money and
choosing men with her head instead of her heart.

April (Charity Shea,) has found the "perfect" man for the "ideal" marriage - but is learning that
marriage might not be her happily ever after.

The series introduces Christina (Kassandra Clementi) a free-spirited, wild child intern with an
eye for fashion that Val takes under her wing.

 

The show is set in the world of Atlanta fashion, music, and celebrity that challenges which woman has the right approach to relationships.

Tyler Perry Ends "House Of Payne" But Plans Launch Of New Series + Garcelle Beauvais, Tristan Wilds And Tatyana Ali Get Hot In Hollywood

Posted: 27 Apr 2011 10:14 AM PDT

 

 

After five successful years, TBS and Tyler Perry have announced that production of the series "House Of Payne" will end this year and be replaced by a new series.  Get the deets on Tyler's new show inside and see pics of Garcelle Beauvais and Tristan Wilds partying in Hollywood...

 

Tyler Perry's TBS series "House Of Payne" will end production this year after a successful run of 222 episodes.  To help fill the void, Tyler Perry is creating a new series for the network based on characters from his Why Did I Get Married movies called "For Better or Worse."

Talking about the new series, Tyler said:

“Even though it will be sad to say goodbye to House of Payne, I’m really looking forward to exploring new territory with For Better or Worse.”  Working on "House of Payne" taught me a lot about what it takes to make a successful television series and I’m looking forward to applying that experience to "For Better or Worse.”

The new show will chronicle the life of a married couple, with Michael Jai White and Tasha Smith reprising their roles as television anchor Marcus and salon owner Angela and will target young adults.

 

 

And last night in Hollywood, US WEEKLY hosted the Hot Hollywood Party at Eden.

Tatyana Ali was there.

And so was actor Tristan Wilds.

"Gossip Girl" actress Jessica Szohr was also there. I love this party dress.

Triple threat singer/dancer/actress Katerina Graham looked amazing.

Garcelle Beauvais looked stunning in her orange gown and gold heels.

Dania Ramirez wore an electric blue dress.
