WORK: Ashanti Kicks It On Set With Fat Joe, Khaled & More + Nicki Minaj Hits Houston With Slim Thug & Paul Wall + More

Posted: 29 Jul 2012 09:15 AM PDT

Ashanti is making a few moves in between working on her upcoming fifth studio album now set to drop January 2013.  And this weekend, she spent some time in NYC on the set of Fat Joe's "Pride & Joy" video with Kanye, Khaled and more.  Pics inside, plus the work LeBron, Nicki Minaj & more have been up to this weekend...

Ashanti threw on her purple leopard pants and pumps to hit the video set with Fat Joe, Roscoe Dash, DJ Khaled and more.  Everyone on set was tweeting pics of what they were up to.

And she wouldn't say much else about what she's working on, but she did tweet this:

Working hard on a bunch if different things! U guys know I don't give up the goods so easy!!ON ALL LEVELS! Lmaoo! #yeahhewaitedthatlong haha

Ashanti is in talks to be in the sequel to Coach Carter and is executive producing and starring in a movie called I Love Cinema.

Kanye and Jadakiss stopped by the filming too.

LeBron James tweeted a pic with Chris Paul today as they were on their way to their first Olympic game in London. TEAM USA is taking on France as we type.

And down in H-Town last night:

Nicki Minaj brought her Pink Friday Reloaded tour to Houston.  And she brought out Texas boys Slim Thug and a super slim Paul Wall to surprise the crowd.  The trio snapped a pic backstage. 

 

Rapper Bun B also joined Nicki on stage.  And he and his GRANDdaughter snapped a pic with the Barb backstage.  Yeah, you read that right.

And Tyrese shot his video for his next single, "Best of Me" this weekend. And he tapped Top Model and upcoming "Girlfriend Confidential" reality star Eva Marcille to be his leading lady. Tyrese posted the sneak peek above and tweeted:

From the set of my new video "BEST OF ME" look at my naturally beautiful leading lady.. Wow!!

The singer/actor will be going away for 5 months to shoot Fast & The Furious 6. So he had a "going away party" last night as well....

Kelly Rowlands BOXES And SHOPS In LA With LaLa Anthony + Taraji P. Henson ARRIVES At LAX

Posted: 29 Jul 2012 08:17 AM PDT

Singer Kelly Rowland was seen in LA recently where she worked out with a boxing trainer and hit a few luxe stores with friend LaLa Anthony.  See pics inside and photos of Taraji P. Henson arriving at LAX.....

Kelly Rowland got her workout on yesterday in LA.  The singer had an intense boxing session with a trainer.  And now we see how she keeps that perfect bod in shape.

Afterwards, she was spotted walking down the street with friends.

Those friends turned out to be LaLa and Po.  Taping for La's "Full Court Life" show was in progress we're sure...

 

The ladies hit a few stores on Melrose Avenue.  Including their girl Kim K.'s DASH boutique.  Of course.

And at LAX..........

The upcoming star of the No Good Deed film Taraji P. Henson arrived at LAX airport in Los Angeles yesterday in a casually fab look of a sheer black bouse, black leggings & a striped blazer.

Taraji's travel outfit was simple yet chic.  Looking good T!

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER BIKINI: Rihanna Pops Bottles & Snorkles It Up In Portofino

Posted: 29 Jul 2012 07:25 AM PDT

Rihanna's next stop on her yacht vacay was back in Portofino yesterday.  Check out her itty bitty leopard print bikini as she popped a few bottles of Ace of Spades and made it a snorkeling day.

Cheers...we'll drink to this....

Rocking her fave Miu Miu pentagon shades, Rih Rih continued her yacht fun with her girls yesterday.  And now that they're back in Portofino where they started, this could mean she's nearing the end of her vacay.

The "Talk That Talk" chick put on her snorkel gear to see what was going on beneath the water.  She tweeted about seeing the underwater Jesus statue.

And flaunted her mini cakes when she finished.


 

She grabbed a beer of course to finish out the day.  Fab times indeed...

WEEKEND CANDIDS: Ron Artest & His Girlfriend + Meagan Good + Nia Long

Posted: 28 Jul 2012 11:55 AM PDT

Celebs in L.A. kicked off their weekend with some shopping, lunch dates, and hitting the town.   Check out Ron Artest out to lunch with his girlfriend Shin Shin (Gao Xinxin), Meagan Good hitting the town with her friends and Nia Long doing some shopping inside...

Laker baller Ron Artest made it known last year that he and (ex) wife Kimsha have been "divorced for years", so he's been toting around his girlfriend Shin Shin everywhere he goes.

The twosome went to the Newsroom Cafe for some grub yesterday afternoon in Beverly Hills.

 

Well isn't that sweet.

Elsewhere in L.A., Meagan Good put on a new outfit and headed out in some leopard leggings and spiked boots.

The newlywed flashed her ring as she made her way to dinner at BOA with fam and friends.

Still fab.

 

And out and about yesterday in Beverly Hills:

Nia Long hit up the COACH Boutique for an obviously big purchase.  The mom of two is looking laid back and casual these days.  Such a fab chick.

Now that the opening ceremonies are over, we picked out some of the YBF Olympians you'll be seeing over the next couple of weeks.  And who's causing us to take notice.  Check out our rundown inside...

As First Lady Michelle Obama and Grant Hill cheered on 2012's Team USA (and Gold medalist Muhummad Ali who made an appearance) as they entered London's Olympic Stadium last night (in Ralph Lauren designed uniforms), we had our eye on the YBF athletes who we'll be watching during the Games.  Whether it's for their admirable talent...or admirable bodies...we'll be glued to these folks.  Fencing anyone?
