LaLa Flaunts Her Bikini Body, Spotted Shooting New Season Of "Full Court Life"

Posted: 27 Jul 2012 09:50 AM PDT

We knew she wasn't going to stay off our tv's for long.  LaLa Anthony is back in the reality saddle filming the next season of her reality show "LaLa's Full Court Life."  The NBA wife was spotted looking fab in all black while shooting around Beverly Hills with her girl Po yesterday.

 

We've got the pics, plus her latest bikini bod pics, inside...

In a sheer black dipped hem blouse and black leggings and platform pumps, La hit the streets of the Hills yesterday while filming her new show.

Po was along for the camera time in a polka dotted dress.

Mrs. Anthony Instagramed a pic of her look before hitting the town later last night.

And earlier in the day, she chilled pool side with her son Kiyan.  And showed off that bikini bod she's been working on:

Three looks in in one day. Fab times...

STILL VACAYING: Rihanna Kicks Back With Coronas Aboard Her Yacht!

Posted: 27 Jul 2012 09:11 AM PDT

Rihanna and her one piece red floral swimsuit chilled on an inflated raft on the French Riviera beside her yacht yesterday.  After stopping in Monaco for about a day, the self proclaimed rude gal pop tart chilled out in Eze Sur Mer, France with a Corona and laughed it up with her girls.  And even had some fun with a tot who's also aboard her yacht.

 

Pics inside...

Bottoms up!  The "You Da One" singer is still relaxing around the south of France and was spotted rocking a cute one piece with her hair in a braided bun yesterday afternoon.  And we can't forget her fave Miu Miu Culte Collection gold pentagon shades.  Rihanna kicked it atop a raft as she watched her friends have some fun in the water below:

Loves the swimsuit.

And it looks like Rih, bestie Melissa and her girls have to be careful with all the weed they've been smoking aboard the yacht (they've been Instagramming it nonstop).  Because a friend's tiny tot is also on board--and Rih calls the cutie her adopted daughter:

Cute!

Nelly Gets Snappy About Ashanti & His "Cold Career" On The Breakfast Club + Rick Ross Stops By "Chelsea Lately"

Posted: 27 Jul 2012 07:42 AM PDT

Nelly's sexy self rolled into The Breakfast Club this morning to chat about why his career isn't on top of the game anymore and why he continues to stay mum about his girl Ashanti.  And he offered up some subtle threats to Charlamagne after getting grilled by him about his "cold career".   We've got the interview and highlights inside.  Plus, Rick Ross makes an appearance on "Chelsea Lately"....

Nelly's got his seventh studio album coming out this fall, M.O., so he's making his promo rounds.   And he's talking about why he stays mum on Ashanti, how he feels about not being #1 in the game, and more.

On beef with Flo Rida

Nelly says the song "Apple Bottom Jeans" was not originally his like people think, it was indeed Flo's. There's no beef with Flo even though it seems like the now bald rapper jacked his style. Nelly says he respects the fact Flo was a fan of his and made his own mark on music.

On his "cold career"

Charlamagne questioned him--several times--on how he felt about his career not being at the top like it used to be. Nelly got slightly offended and said that's his opinion. But a career has ups and downs--as long as you're around that's what matters.

On his relationship with Ashanti

"Like I said before, me and baby girl are real cool. It's not going to change until we want to change it."  Nelly said people think it's only his decision on whether or not they discuss their relationship publicly--it was a mutual decision.

On his ventures outside of music

Apple Bottom Jeans is still around with two stores in Dubai.  It's been around for 10 years and the only urban female clothing line around for that long.  He still owns Troop brand and just opened a school in St. Louis.  He's also making an appearance on Queen Latifah's upcoming CW music competition show "The Next".  He also may do the actual tv show "Househusbands" with Kevin Hart.  And he still has his part ownership of the Bobcats.

On loving "Love & Hip Hop ATL" and if he would work with Joseline

"You know what; I think it's made for TV. When people get upset about that show, I think they taking it seriously and there's nothing to be taken seriously about that show, it's entertainment. I tune in to laugh. I think Stevie J is made for television!"

"Yeah, I would [laugh and hang up if Stevie J asked me to work with Joseline.] I definitely would, but you know what, I'd tune in to watch him get on the phone and ask."

 

Check out the interview in full above.

 

And last night, while promoting his upcoming God Forgives, I Don't album, Rick Ross hopped on "Chelsea Lately" to chop it up with every rapper's fave blonde to flirt with. 

The two started off the convo about sex--of course.  Chelsea hilariously said she loves big black men.  And Ricky proposed an elopement--but said he wants to skip the paper work.  Chelsea said she's ready to upgrade from 50 Cent to Ricky Rozay.  Ha. 

 

DAMN HOMIE: IRS COLLECTS $53K At Young Buck's AUCTION, Rapper Begins PRISION Sentence Next MONTH!

Posted: 27 Jul 2012 07:34 AM PDT

The IRS hosted an auction of Young Buck's possessions recently where $53K was raised to pay off his debts. Get the deets inside on the auction and his upcoming prison stint....

 

We told you earlier about rapper Young Buck owing over $300K to the IRS for unpaid taxes, and an auction of his things was recently held to clear it up. At the auction in Nashville, which was on of the IRS's largest in the area, $53K was collected towards the debt.

Items for sale included televisions, fur coats, recording equipment and jewelry.  The highest selling item was a diamond and ruby-encrusted gold chain going for $12K.  Also, one gentleman bought a $3K hard drive (hoping it contained unreleased music from the rapper).  Sadly, he later found out the IRS had already wiped it clean.  Womp!

And if you think watching your prized possessions sold off is embarassing...Young Buck took it in stride tweeting, 

 

So....apparently he bought the gold chain back, but he added, I never knew #Material shit was so important to y'all. Smh!!

And next month, the rapper is set to begin an 18-month prision stint for having weapons in his home.   I hope he knows he's not taking that chain with him.

The Game's Wedding Is BACK ON...New Date Set + Jay-Z Drops Made In America Video

Posted: 26 Jul 2012 08:50 PM PDT

After all the hoopla of a big proposal then calling the wedding off days before it was set to go down, The Game just pulled out another doozy.  The wedding between he and fiance Tiffney Cambridge is BACK ON!  Deets inside, plus Jay-Z's new Made In America festival video...

 

TMZ reports that they've been told Game and Tiffney are giving it another go.  They've reunited, set a new wedding date, and are back on board with their VH1 reality show that was following the couple during the days leading up to their nuptials.  Of course.  Can't let that reality money slip through ya fingers.

Game previously took full responsibility for the called off wedding saying Tiffney called it off because of his lies and cheating ways.  And he didn't recognize the good woman he had.  I guess she's over it now.  Because the two will be walking down the aisle come August.

 

Anywho....

Jay-Z & Budweiser released “Makers of Tomorrow,” their new commercial celebrating the upcoming Budweiser Made In America festival.  With the visual idea helmed by Steve Stoute, the rapper & beer company came together to showcase what folks can expect from the upcoming Festival.

Hov is curating the music festival (with over 28 artists performing) going down at Philadelphia’s Benjamin Franklin Parkway during Labor Day weekend, September 1-2.

RAP CHICKS: Azealia Banks Rocks Alexander Wang's Fall 2012 Promo Vid + Iggy Azalea Preps To Walk In NY Fashion Week

Posted: 26 Jul 2012 05:48 PM PDT

Azealia Banks and Iggy Azalea are making moves.  Check out the Harlem rapper's new fashion promo with Alexander Wang and the Aussie rapper's new model moves inside....

 

Azealia Banks has taken her professional relationship with designer Alexander Wang one step further. The raw Harlem chick is now starring in a new promo vid for the clothing company's Fall 2012 campaign.  Azealia, who was Alexander's date to the Met Gala this year, also provided the music for his Spring 2012 campaign starring Liya Kibede.

The track she's rocking in this new promo is "Van Vogue" off her 1991 EP.  About working with Ms. Banks, Alexander Wang said:

“She exudes a certain rawness that makes her a very unique talent. I loved working with her on this video for T Fall 2012, and think the collaboration captures a collision of energies.”

Check out A's promo vid above.

 

 

 

As for the other rapstress with a similar name, Iggy Azalea, she's putting her modelicious looks--which we feel are superior to her rap skills TBH--to good use.  The newly signed Wilhelmina model announced she's now prepping her walking skills for New York Fall Fashion Week.  She tweeted:

Learning to walk in nyc next month in prep for fashion week and im actually nervous about it. lol. yikes! #DontTrip...Maybe they'll teach me to vogue too.... just joking! lol.

Can't lie, that "Murda Bizness" vid is good ish though.  Grandhustle's Iggy also just dropped her "Flash" track ft. Mike Posner off her new Glory EP.  And now she's focused on her upcoming mixtape TRAPGOLD.

TOM FORD FACE-OFF! Jennifer Lopez VS. Kim K.

Posted: 26 Jul 2012 01:32 PM PDT

Jennifer Lopez had a red hot birthday this week.  And she was spotted in the same dress that Kim Kardashian wore to the 2012 BET Awards.  Decide who flaunted their curves best inside...

On her way to her surprise 43rd birthday party (hosted by her boyfriend Casper) aboard a yacht in New York Monday evening, pop diva J.Lo rocked the 2012 Tom Ford long sleeved zippered back dress for her big night.  The lady in red paired her fiery dress with a pair of red Christian Louboutin Illusion ankle strap pumps.  And a gold clutch, gold hoops and a gold cuff bracelet all complimented her look.

But earlier this month, Kim K. was her boo Kanye West's arm piece for the 2012 BET Awards.  And she rocked the same Tom Ford dress in stark white.  Kim paired her dress with a pair of gold Tom Ford sandals and no jewelry. And topped it off with a bouffant yet sleek 'do.

Both ladies kept the back of the dress unzipped for a sexy edge.  So...

WHO ROCKED IT BEST?!

Reality tv star Eva Marcille lit up the red carpet for a second day in a  row in a gold dress and burgundy.

Eva posed with co-stars Kelly Marie Dunn, Nikki Chu and Denyce Lawton who promoted their upcoming reality show 'Girlfriend Confidential: LA."

Denyce looked gorgeous as she made her rounds. 

Jordin Sparks' boo Jason Derulo attended.

 

And in Venice, Italy......

NBA Champion Chris Bosh may have been too hurt to play in the Olympics this summer for TEAM USA, but he and wife Adrienne (in a black maxi dress and studded Valentino sandals) and son Jackson were spotted walking on St. Mark's Square in Venice, Italy.

The lovey dovey couple posed for pics during their stroll.

And Adrienne showed off her assets for the camera.  Wonder if they're going to hop a flight over to London to cheer on Chris' teammate LeBron and the rest of the USA team.

VIDEOS: Halle Berry's "Cloud Atlas" Preview + J.Lo's "Goin' In" + Trina's "I'm Back"

Posted: 26 Jul 2012 10:28 AM PDT

Halle Berry's new film with co-star Tom Hanks, Cloud Atlas, just released the first trailer and preview photo. Check out the stars playing multiple roles in the book-to-film adaptation, plus videos from Jennifer Lopez & Trina....

In the 5:45 trailer just released this morning, we see the stars Halle & Tom Hanks taking on multiple roles as the movie goes through multiple story lines in difference centuries and locations. The flick comes to the U.S. October 26th.

The $100-mill-budget flick is an exploration of how the actions of individual lives impact one another in the past, present and future, as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero, and an act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution. Can't say I'm all that pressed to see it.  Are you?

 

Jennifer Lopez dropped her neon-filled ne video last night for her track "Goin' In".

MTV reports that "Goin' In" was produced by LMFAO's frequent contributor, GoonRook. It's featured on both J.Lo's greatest hits album, Dance Again ... The Hits, which dropped this week, as well as the soundtrack to Step Up Revolution, which hits theaters Friday.

In addition to J.Lo busting out her dance moves throughout the vivid vid, clips from the movie as well as cameos from Lil Jon and Flo Rida pop up as they make cameos on the track.  Peep Jenny's glittery concoction above.

 

You've seen the on-the-set pics.  Now check out "I'm Back (Back 2 Business)" video.   I guess Trina's saying she and her girls are back to dancing, grinding and washing cars before hopping on party buses with stripper poles.  Or something....
