T.I. & Tiny Host Viewing Party For “The Family Hustle” With Toya Wright, Kandi Burruss And More

Posted: 06 Dec 2011 09:00 AM PST

Last night, as their double premiere went down, T.I. and Tiny hosted a large group of family and friends for a private viewing party for their new show “T.I. And Tiny: The Family Hustle.” Close friends Toya Wright and Kandi Burruss were among the attendees.

 

See the pics inside.........

It was truly a family affair last night as T.I. and Tiny hosted a group of family and friends for a viewing of their VH1 reality show which airs on Mondays at  9pmET.  Above, he posed with mom Violeta Morgan and sons.

 

Tiny's mom Dianne Cottle (grey sweater) was also there posing with family members.

Tiny kicked it with her girls Toya Wright and Kandi Burruss.  Sidenote: Kandi's booty has been on 100 these days.  Some folks are thinking she got some onion enhancements.  I believe it's simply a good workout routine.  WORK KANDI.

Atlanta Hawks baller Josh Smith was there with wife Alexandria Lopez.

Josh later posed with comedian Lil' Duval and some friends.

The OMG Girlz (plus their former group member Reginae) were there.

True family time.  Did you love last night's premiere?  Speak on it.  And check out the best moments from the first episode below:

PHOTO FAB: Solange Knowles Shares Pics From Her FAB Life, Tries To Cure Cancer

Posted: 06 Dec 2011 08:14 AM PST

 

Offering a peek into her fab life, Solange Knowles today posted a few fab pics (including one of big sister Beyonce) from her personal collection on her blog.  Plus, she's taken on the huge task of finding ways to cure blood cancer.  Check them out inside....

Solange Knowles gave a peek into her life with a few personal pics of herself and her friends/family on her blog.  She posted the one above simply saying "My Big Sis".

And her and brother-in-law who she calls simply her big bro Jay-Z.

She also partied with her fave group--Florence + The Machine.

 

And in case you missed it:

She also included pics from her November 2011 photoshot for LUCKY Magazine where she was chosen as the month's "Lucky Girl."

 

In other Solange news.....

 

She recently recorded a new PSA featuring asking people everywhere to help find a cure for blood cancer by registering to be a Bone Marrow Donor with DKMS. Check it out above and get swabbed!

As a mother, Solange understands how heartbreaking it must be to watch your child suffer and not be able to help. Her dedication to registering new donors is personal, and this past summer she took charge and hosted a donor drive at her son Juelz’s school. This PSA raises a call to action and educates the public on how simple being a patient’s potential cure is.

 

“Since attending the DKMS gala couple of years ago, I have wanted to lend my support in any way I could. People are dying and we can save them. Patients like Kara could be cured with a bone marrow transplant,” said Solange Knowles. “A lot of people don't understand that it's literally a cotton swab that determines if you’re a match. This can actually save someone's life!”

 

Every day thousands of patients search the national registry in the hope of finding a bone marrow donor match. Less than 30% of patients find a match in their own family; the other 70% must search for an unrelated donor. Sadly, 6 out of 10 patients who can benefit from a transplant never receive one.

Kelly Rowland Gets FAB For January 2012 MARIE CLAIRE UK, She's NOT Ready To Pop Out A Baby & WILL Finally See Her Daddy

Posted: 06 Dec 2011 07:31 AM PST

Kelly Rowland tapped into her Barbie doll good looks for the cover and spread of the January 2012 issue of Marie Claire UK magazine. 

 

Read on for her sparkly and feathery fabness, plus what she says about why it's insane to pop out a baby..and why she's "nervous as hell" to meet up with her estranged father this Christmas...

In a short silver printed dress, "X Factor UK" judge Kelly looked gorgeous for the upcoming Marie Claire UK mag.  And she's not holding back about her future plans.  Not even that estranged pap of hers.  Check out more pretty

pics from her spread:

My two fave looks.  Deep pink is definitely her color.

Sexy.  

She also dished on whether she's ready to pop out a kid like her "sister" Beyonce.  And it seems like the thought still terrifies her.  Don't even blame her.  Here's highlights form her interview: 

On whether Beyonce's pregnancy has made her broody:
"No. I will babysit and change a diaper or two, and then give it back. I do want kids, but every time I think about a little person growing inside of me and getting bigger and bigger and then having to come out.... a watermelon coming out of something the size of a lemon is insane to me."

On being a part of the controversial judge panel on "The X Factor":
"What I like is that it's very organic. What you see is what you get. Nothing is fake. We'll agree, we'll disagree and sometimes we have to agree to disagree."

On moving with her mom from Atlanta to Houston and away from her dad:
"I was just the kind of kid who could get on with anyone - I talked a lot. I still talk a lot. I remember I'd watch my mom do her job as a nanny and see her bosses with their kids and say, 'OK, this is a nice life. I want that.' Seeing how someone else was living put a drive in me."

On whether she plans to reunite with her dad after 22 years:
"I do plan on seeing him over the holidays. I'm nervous as hell. I don't want to think about it. We'll see what happens."

Sounds like a typical family Christmas...family drama and secrets at the forefront.  Good luck Kel!
