Posted: 23 Aug 2013 09:00 AM PDT Kanye West just revealed the first pic of baby North West! And we've got the bouncing baby girl's pic inside.
Plus, we've got the highlights from his interview with grandma Kris Jenner where he reveals his obsession with his baby's mother Kim Kardashian (both past and present), what it's like living with the Kardashian/Jenner clan, and why he's so hateful of the paparazzi (it comes with being an over protective new dad). There's North West! In all her dark haired, plump cheeks, baby girl glory! Kanye revealed the pic today and also dropped lots of nuggets in a rare interview. If you thought Kanye just hated the paparazzi because he was being extra, well, that's only part of it. The run-ins all stem from him being an overprotective new dad to baby North West and his new family. Kanye's interview with Kris Jenner on her "Kris" show today revealed a few things we didn't know: Just how deep his obsession with joining the Kardashian family really runs, his super sweet romantic side, how Kim & her fam have changed his life, and why it was so hard finding love after his mom died. Oh, and he's now getting closer with his dad who was an esteemed photo journalist. Here are the highlights: On falling in love with Kim Kardashian upon first sight The first time we met, she was in the studio and was Brandy's assistant. She brought us something to drink--something you can't drink on daytime TV. She came to the video me & Brandy were doing. And I asked my manager, "Who's that girl right there?" He said, "Who, Kim?" Love at first sight? "Oh yeah, definitely. I remember seeing pics of her like out with Paris Hilton and asking my friends, "You ever seen Kim Kar-da-jan--I couldn't pronounce it."
On finally meeting Kim On finding love after his mother died "Since my mom passed, it was very difficult to find love. It's hard for anybody to find love, esp. if you're famous. Or polarizing.I'm definitely romantic. Because I'm an artist. i like surprises, I like to sweep someone off their feet....After I lost my mother, I felt like I would put my life at risk. I felt like I didn't have anything to live for. Now I have two special people to live for. A whole family to live for." On being the ultimate romantic (and his custom Zanotti shoes for Kim) We went to Rome, went to Florence, went to Remini, Italy. people said why would you go to Remini? A friend of mine, Giuseppe Zanotti, has a factory out there. So I brought her there. i sat there and we sketched out shoes for her that Zanotti made from scratch and he sent her the shoes in like 2 weeks. So she got to pick out her own Zanottis.
On his obsession with joining the Kardashian family years before he started dating Kim Kris revealed an example of a pic where Kanye photoshopped himself into the annual Kardashian Christmas Card (which he did often). Kanye said, "I just dreamed about being next to her….I don't want to start jumping up and down on the couch or anything." On being a dad and protecting North from the paparazzi The thing I think about as a dad is just protection. That's my only goal is to protect my daughter. That's my instinct. A big thing that plagues us is this idea of the paparazzi chasing a 5 year old around and screaming at them. For me I'm supposed to be this musical genius. But I can't even work the car seat that well. I'm embarrased in front my girl and I can't work the car seat. What if I can't work the car seat when all these paparazzi are hounding us and then they take pics of me not being able to do it correctly....then the pics ended up on 20 media outlets then 20,000 people come after me like "You can't work the car seat!" So it has me waking up in a cold sweat and trying to learn about the carseat at 3AM. On why Kanye decide to reveal North on the show We have not attemted to get paid from a magazine. To stop all the noise, I thought it would be really cool that on her grandmother's season finale to bring a picture of North. On being annoyed with people and paparazzi using the couple for money and a come up (he didn't address whether he felt Kim did this herself & participated in this to get to where she is) Theres so many people who are only around you to make money off of you.....I'm going to talk to the Mayor of LA and the Mayor of NYC about zoning. There have to be parameters around places like schools.
On what it's like living with The Jenner/Kardashian clan I think...it's interesting. Just as a creative guy, I would have my apt. in New York and be a bachelor. It was super minimal, just one plant somewhere. but here, it's something everywhere and a lot of noise. But now I'm used to it. When I'm out, I try to get home early just to get home to my family. (Then Kris chimed in about missing Kanye when he leaves for business trips and constantly asking when he's coming back.)

Posted: 23 Aug 2013 08:15 AM PDT You may want to do a double take. Nope...that's not Nicki Minaj. It's TRINA....doing a tribute to Nicki Minaj during last night's 2013 BMI R&B/Hip-Hop Awards honoring Cash Money’s Bryan “Birdman” Williams and Ronald “Slim” Williams.
Check out all the pics inside of all the hip hop celebs (and we use that term very loosely) who attended the Awards show all about songwriters, producers and publishers, plus the message Young Money has for all of hip hop. Hint: These are fightin' words.... We don't think we've ever seen a vet in the game tribute a newbie, but, there's a first time for everything. The baddest chick Trina hopped on stage at the Manhattan Center in NYC last night to tribute Nicki Minaj. The blond wig, overdone leg baring red dress, jewels and all were all part of the costume. And we damn near couldn't tell this WASN'T Nicki. It was a full out Young Money takeover as the Award show--which was supposed to be Black Tie but oh well--was a tribute to the label's head honchos Birdman & Slim. So Weezy, Birdman, Nicki, Mack Maine and more all kicked it front row:
Bored much? Trina arrived looking like herself though. And yes, we think she looks great. Don't question our Trina fan-dom...
Nicki, who looked all the way ready for fall in these black tights and flirty gold foil & black skirt and matching long sleeved blouse, accepted and shared the Songwriter of the Year crown with Benny Blanco by each writing four songs that rank among the year’s most-performed. In case you were wondering, Nicki’s top contributions include “Dance (A$$),” “Girl On Fire,” “Make Me Proud,” and “Starships.” And Benny was recognized for “Diamonds,” “Heart Attack,” “Payphone,” and “Work Hard Play Hard.”
And Nicki Minaj’s “Starships” earned Song of the Year honors as she wrote it herself along with a few others.
Weezy & his Cash Money crew, including Juvenile (WHERE YOU BEEN JUVE?) accepted an award from BMI's head honcho Catherine Brewton and co-hos Ray-J. Plus Slim & Baby copped the ICON Award.
The fellas took the stage to offer up a message to hip hip.
And Nicki, Birdman, Mannie Fresh and co. responded to their tribute, plus here's Trina's tribute performance: Also at the BMI Awards last night: Rocsi Diaz rocked a gorge strapless Prabal Gurung dress for the event.
Model Eva Marcille looked sophisticated fab. Rapper Future flew solo without his chick Ciara.
Fab chick Bridget Kelly kept it cute on the carpet. Busta, Mystikal, Juvenile and Mannie all hit the stage. L.A. Reid was there as an icon himself. Sean Kingston debuted his new beard.
Hey Mannie. And Trinidad James looked....like this...at the Awards. Congrats to everyone!

Posted: 23 Aug 2013 07:21 AM PDT Reality tv star La La Anthony just launched the fall collection of her 5th & Mercer line. Get the deets inside and find out about Ameriie's science fiction novel. La La Anthony (shown above last night celebrating the one year anniversary of Courvoisier Gold at Bootsy Bellows in West Hollywood) has launched the fall collection of 5th & Mercer (exclusively through SHOPBOP.com). La La says she created 5th & Mercer to combine the classic uptown style with more edgy downtown detailing at smart and affordable price points. She added, “I wanted to share this line to give women a variety of options, whether it’s a fun look with the printed sweatshirt or a more dressed up style with the pencil skirt. There is something for everyone in this collection and I’m so excited for it to launch!” Her own makeup line, clothing line, reality show, film career....she seems to be getting everything she set out to get.
And in other celebrity news.....
Singer & smartypants Ameriie is headed to a bookstore near you with a new science fiction novel. The "Everytime" songstress has reportedly signed a deal with New Leaf Literary & Media, Inc. and is expected to release her novel sometime in 2014. Via the Good Read website, the singer confirmed her plans saying, “I received my B.A. in English from Georgetown University, and I am currently writing a Young Adult sci-fi novel”. And just in case you were wondering if she's taking a detour from music (meaning, more of a detour she seems to have already taken), she assured her fans that she will continue to record. “Meanwhile, I’m doing my best not to forget to eat, drink, or sleep. I also create music.”

Posted: 22 Aug 2013 05:47 PM PDT Well this is a double dinner date we never expected. "Extra" corrpsondent AJ Calloway and his new wife and baby were spotted grabbing dinner in SoHo last night with Alec & wife Hilaria Baldwin. We can only imagine what those dinner convos were about.
Check the pics, plus Djimon Housou and his cute son Kenzo also grabbing dinner together... It's dinner with the Baldwins night! The veteran celeb who seems to despise all paparazzi and media was spotted breaking bread in NYC with a member of the press--AJ Calloway. The former "106 & Park" host turned "Extra" correspondent showed off his new wife Dionne and their brand new baby Amy Belle. Their baby girl is barely 10 days old and already meeting one of the legends of the biz:
Alec and his pregnant wife were spotted chopping it up with the Calloways before they had a double date at a nearby restaurant: Y'all know Mr. Baldwin doesn't "do" paparazzi. So he gave the cameras a mean mug. And AJ and his wife were spotted walking home with the baby afterwards. Cute.
Over in L.A.: Baggage Claim star Djimon Housou was spotted having a cutesy father-son dinner with Kenzo Lee at Matsuhisa restaurant in Beverly Hills.
His (and Kimora Lee Simmons') little one is growing up so fast! The 4-year-old shares time with both mommy and daddy in L.A. And it seems to be working out just fine. Fun times!

Kanye West sat for a taped interview with Kris Jenner (airing tomorrow) where he put on his..."non threatening voice"....and expressed his love for Kris' daughter Kim. And revealed a pic of his daughter North West. In the new preview, he gushes, "I could have people say, 'This is going to damage your credibility as an artist or designer.' And I say, you know, I don't care, I love this woman. I love this person. She's worth it to me." Oh. And when referencing the recent death of his grandfather, Portwood Williams Sr., he said "his whole thing was about joy, having joy in his life. (Kim is) my joy. She brought my new joy into the world." He went on to explain how Kim and North have changed his life. "There were times (after her death), I would put my life at risk. I didn't have something to live for. Now I have two very special people to live for, a whole family to live for, a whole world to live for."

Posted: 22 Aug 2013 03:24 PM PDT Rapper 2 Chainz was arrested for obstruction of justice (mugshot above) after he refused to grant the Oklahoma City Police Department access to his tour bus. Get the deets inside and find out about Juicy J's $50,000 scholarship for twerkers......
2 Chainz and 10-members of his entourage were booked into the Oklahoma County Jail after they refused to allow the police to search their tour bus. Last night, Mr. Chainz performed alongside Lil Wayne, T.I. and Future for their America’s Most Wanted Tour and apparently they "celebrated" on the bus. Initially, cops pulled 2 Chainz's tour bus over for a busted taillight, but once cops made contact with the driver, they realized some illegal activities had been going on. But cops weren't allowed to confirm their suspicions because 2 Chainz and the crew LOCKED the doors and refused to allow them to search the bus. The cops towed the bus to their parking lot and began a search once they obtained a search warrant. Mind you....all of this took 8 hours! Oklahoma City Police Department Sergeant Jennifer Wardlow told Radio.com,
According to the AP, investigators DID find narcotics on the bus but they could not determine who they belonged to. But over on Twitter, Titty Boi/2 Chainz claims they didn't find anything!
FYI.....the officers took the following persons into custody: Tauhed Epps (2 Chainz) Yep, all the government names on blast. We'll keep you posted on future charges.....
And in other rapper foolywang..... If you know how to "Bounce It" and you need a few dollars to get through school, rapper Juicy J has the solution for you. While promoting his upcoming cd, Stay Trippy (August 27th), the rapper is offering a $50,000 scholarship to the best twerker. Yes.....you read that correctly. $50K for twerking! Juicy made the announced on Twitter and folks seem to be taking this very seriously...... And if that isn't enough, fans can listen to Juicy J's new online via his online virtual stripping game. Smh...... We guess it beats taking out a student loan...or does it?
The Randomness: 1. Former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez indicted for the murder of Odin Lloyd. Story. 2. "Moesha" star Marcus T. Paulk -- who played the little brother Myles on the show -- turned himself in to authorities after allegedly putting his girlfriend in the hospital after punching her in the stomach.

Posted: 22 Aug 2013 02:37 PM PDT In Part 2 of 2 of TheYBF.com's Advice From Married Women featurette, Baggage Claim star Paula Patton dished to us the real ish that comes with a long term relationship. Very long term.
Find out what hot mom & wife Mrs. Patton Thicke had to say about her new role as a love thirsty woman trying to find a husband ...and why she's had to resort to spying on her own husband in real life! Rocking sexy "Maria" J Brand Jeans, a plaid Isabelle Marant top and gold Manolo Blahnik heels, Paula Patton chatted with us at the Four Seasons in L.A. during a recent Baggage Claim press event. And just when we thought the high school sweethearts turned Hollywood power couple of Paula and singer Robin Thicke was pretty much perfect, the bubbly actress wasn't shy about telling us why it hasn't always been so peachy. While her flight attendant character in the upcoming rom-com is willing to sacrifice herself for love, Paula tells us she's done some equally crazy things...all because of love. And yes, that includes spying on her husband to make sure he wasn't cheating, and catering to her "woman's intuition". Check! Here's out chit chat:
Tell us about your character: Especially because her mother is very aggressive and the mother puts so much emphasis on the importance of marriage and that your not a lady unless you’re a wife. So you find a woman who’s at a real emotional place. She is desperate now. She says she’s not showing up at that wedding without a husband or at least a ring on this finger. With her two best friends played by Jill Scott and Adam Brody, who do a magnificent job in the film, they devise a plan because they realize I wont be able to find a new man in a month unless he's in jail, needs a green card or on the down low (laughs) so she has to go back in the past and revisit the ex-boyfriends to see maybe I was too picky, maybe I can do something differently. That's where she’s compromising her self and she's desperate. You see all these different wardrobe changes to try and fit in these guys lives but something at the core of Montana won’t let her go all the way until she finds the real love. So it's a very fun journey over this 30 day period among all these men that she visits and the insane things that happen to her along the way with what these guys do. It's about a woman who realizes that she's enough on her own and no longer has the need to please her family anymore and she says take me as I am whether you like it or not and I’m okay with me, alone. So I always think of this movie as having two happy endings. I’ll leave the rest as a surprise. Who is your favorite male counterpart? How much of Paula Patton is in your character Montana Moore? What advice would you give to single women looking for true love? At one point Montana ends up in a trash can to spy on her boyfriend. Have you ever gone to great lengths to see if your man is cheating? Are you telling YBF readers to start spying?
We are not mad Paula. Protect that investment! Baggage Claim hits theaters September 27th nationwide! Check out Part 1 of our Advice From Married Women featurette with LaLa Anthony HERE in case you missed it!

Posted: 22 Aug 2013 11:22 AM PDT Amid reports that they are no longer living under the same roof, photographers captured an interesting exchange yesterday between Khloe Kardashian's husband Lamar Odom and her best friend Malika Haqq, where a car and two suitcases were returned/dropped off...at a local gas station. See the pics inside and offer up your own theories....
It's no secret that Khloe Kardashian and Clippers baller Lamar Odom have hit a rough patch. About what though, is the question. Earlier in the year, the couple had to do damage control regarding some misappropriated funds with Lamar's charity and then a few weeks ago, Lamar attacked a group of photographers as the couple were plagued by infidelity rumors. And Khloe has started to become a bit more open via her family's reality show about their fertility troubles. While Khloe and Lamar (and the ever present Momager Kris) have shot down cheating rumors before, the alleged mistresses keep coming forward, as recently as this week. And yesterday, photographers saw Khloe's bff Malika (pictured above in black) drive Lamar's white Mercedes down from the couple's home to a nearby gas station. Once there, Malika chatted with a man (who appears to be a close friend of Lamar). Lamar (still wearing his wedding ring) later emerged from the gas station and got into his vehicle, with his friend, and drove around for about 20 minutes before they returned to the parking lot. Then, the friend helped Lamar load two suitcases and some golf clubs from the friend's blue Mercedes into the back of Lamar's car. The whole scene seemed a little suspect. Is it possible Malika drove Lamar's car to him because his isn't allowed to go home? Hmmm.... Though Kris Jenner told E! News a while back that Khloe and Lamar are not getting a divorce, it sure seems as though the couple are living apart. It was reported that Lamar had moved into The Garden Inn Hilton in Calabasas, Calif. (near their home), with one source telling Radar Online,
Khloe oddly posted a pic of their feet together in a pic AT the Garden Inn Hilton. And paps have seen Lamar go in and out of the hotel several times recently. It's also worth noting that Khloe is VERY active on social media and but has not mentioned Lamar for a very long time (though they did attend Kylie's Sweet 16 together). Does it look like these two are headed for splitsville?
