Posted: 30 Jul 2012 10:00 AM PDT

Beyonce posted some new personal pics to her Tumblr, including one where she reps for her husband Jay-Z.  So cute! Pics inside.....

While her hubby Jay-Z showed her love in his commercial for Duracell, Bey recently rocked a Jay-Z t-shirt while throwing up the Roc and posted it on her Tumblr.

It's been a while since she's given her Hive new pics, so Bey shared a few other photos from her stash including one of her standing alone in a dance studio. 

Aorgeous shot of Paris while she was chillin' in the city with Jay & 'Ye during the WTT tour. 

And we're still trying to figure out what she meant when she posted, "Leave Your Footprint August 19th."  New song?

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 09:02 AM PDT

Tyra Banks made a curvy statement in a back zipper figure hugging dress and Alexander McQueen pumps Sunday afternoon at the CW, CBS, And Showtime 2012 Summer TCA Party at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.

 

We've got pics of everybody's fave Top Model, plus other actors putting on their promo faces for their own shows this fall...

Representing CBS' "The Talk," Aisha Tyler made her way to the TCA red carpet in a chic look of a metallic skirt and split back white blouse.

Great look for her.

And her co-host Sheryl Underwood also made an appearance.

"Person of Interest" star Taraji P. Henson put on a fitted white cap sleeved dress as she promoted her CBS show.

Nice.

LL is coming into his fourth year of starring in CBS's "NCIS: Los Angeles".  And he's still looking good.

And this is Hill Harper's 9th year on "CSI: NY".  Nice!

Actor Garret Morris stars on one of our fave comedies, "2 Broke Girls."  He promoted the upcoming second season of the CBS show.

It looks like Tristan Wilds' character "Dixon" didn't die in that car crash on "90210" afterall.  He was on hand to promote the next season of the CW show.

CBS "This Morning" host Gayle King made a spring-like appearance.  Not sure how I feel about her wearing a summer lawn.

THE SHOW MUST GO ON: Michael's Kids & Grandma Go See The Jacksons Perform "Unity Tour" + Janet, Rebbie, Jermaine & Randy BANNED From Jackson House!

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 08:17 AM PDT

Despite their very public family dispute, the remaining Jackson brothers hit the stage for the "Unity Tour" in California recently. Get the deets inside and an update on Katherine Jackson and the kids.....

 

Though the family has been blasted with negative headlines from around the country, Jermaine, Tito, Randy and Marlon put on a united front for their "Unity Tour" concert in Saratoga, CA on Friday.

Katherine Jackson, who was greeted with applause, arrived in tow with Michael's children Prince, Paris and Blanket.  Earlier on Friday, a lawyer for the Jackson family said that Katherine and TJ Jackson would be filing for joint guardianship and this is what the kids want.

But there's still a lot of family discord.  It was revealed that Howard Weitzman, who represents John McClain and John Branca (the executors), sent an email to Charles Schultz, an attorney for TJ Jackson,recently barring Janet, Rebbie, Randy and Jermaine from the kids' home in Calabasas.

“Given the circumstances of the last two weeks, and in order to protect the children and Mrs. Jackson, the Executors believe that it would not be appropriate to allow the following individuals to enter the residence or its grounds and we instruct the security to preclude the following from entering the residence or the grounds: Randy Jackson and any of his children, Janet Jackson, Rebbie Jackson and any of her children, Jermaine Jackson, his wife and any of his children, Janice Smith, or anyone else who was involved in the recent events that led to Mrs. Jackson’s separation from and inability to communicate with Michael’s children, or any agents or representatives of any of these individuals."

Randy tweeted on Friday that the executors of the Michael Jackson Estate were trying to isolate Katherine  "...just like they did to Michael, in order to propagate their lies, financial agendas and to protect a fraudulent will." 

 

Sigh....it seems like this isn't over.  And there will be more tweets to come.......

 

 

 

Watch Mrs. Jackson arrive here:

FAREWELL: Rihanna & Her Yacht Crew Wrap Up Their Vacay

Posted: 29 Jul 2012 09:12 PM PDT

Bronzed beauty Rihanna had a classy farewell today as she wrapped her 2 week vacay aboard the yacht Latitude.  Check out pics of Rih looking relaxed and cheery as she snapped some pics with her yacht crew...who she clearly loosened up a bit during the voyage...

 

Rihanna and her perfect tan rolled into Antibes, France today to disembark the yacht she's been drinking, smoking & doing everything else on.  And the rude gals had some fun with the crew before hopping off.  And by fun we mean a few middle fingers, gun salutes and laughs:

The pop chick also signed a scooter writing "To Latitude with [an] attitude" and "Rihanna - This is my bitch!"  Ha.

Now it's back to work as she preps for the premiere of her UK "Styled To Rock" fashion reality show and very likely a new album to boot.

Before they departed, Kim ran into her friend Jonathan.  She tweeted, "OMG can't believe I ran into you on the street @JonathanCheban!!!! BFF's for life!!! So fun!!!"

The duo later headed out to dinner.

Kim later tweeted pics of her and Kanye's (semi) matching gold bracelets during their date night in NYC.
