Posted: 28 Oct 2013 09:26 AM PDT Reality tv star/songtress Tamar Braxton was spotted filming a movie over the weekend...and she posted a new pic of cutie patootie baby Logan! Get the deets on both inside.... Over the weekend, "Hot Sugar" singer Tamar Braxton posted a new photo of baby Logan Vincent Herbert. Baby LVH, who first made his pictorial debut a few months ago, is the splitting image of his proud papa, Vincent. And we see mama T in there too. Absolutely adorbs! She said about her baby boy's pic: "#Logan looks like he's about to say "Try me Not Today!!...Pop off if you want 2! #hesocute ...the first time he's not JUST like Vince..lol" Ha! In other Tamar news.... Tamar was spotted filming a project over the weekend with Frontrow designer Shateria Moragne-El, the girlfriend of Rick Ross. Shateria tweeted, "Making a movie today w/ @tamarbraxtonher literally. #UReady." While the duo have remained mum about the exact nature of the "film", it may be related to Shateria's clothing line. Tamar has been one of Shateria's clients in the past and has even walked in one of her fashion shows. Cute.

Posted: 28 Oct 2013 08:17 AM PDT TheYBF.com hit the pink carpet at the 2013 Black Girls Rock Awards this weekend and chatted it up with some of our favorite celebs. See what Mara Brock Akil, Tatyana Ali, Lala Anthony and Debra Lee talked about inside.... TheYBF.com was live on the pink carpet Saturday night for the BET taping of Black Girls Rock! at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center. We caught up with a few of our faves who dished about some things we've been wondering about. "Being Mary Jane" creator Mara Brock Akil, who received the Shot Caller Award, revealed her keys to success. Because clearly, she's setting up a blueprint these days. She dished to us, "I took myself seriously. I believed in myself. I envisioned it. I think a lot of times the work is....people don't believe what they can do. They don't even sit still and envision it. That process along will get people further along. If you believe it, if you see it, if you dream it...that exercise alone will lead you to the choices that will make you get there." Reality tv star and actress LaLa Anthony, who was there to support her bestie Kelly Rowland, talked about being more open with her audience when it comes to sensitive issues (like sex). "I'm able to be free and open and talk about things and people need to be able to hear it. People have questions, people want advice and I want to be able to provide that." She's got the upcoming movie Think Like A Man Too and her advice book The Love Playbook, which comes out in January, on deck. Actress Tatyana Ali was on hand to present the My Black is Beautiful award to three outstanding young women. But she took a few moments to joke about the encounter with Drake that landed her in the headlines. She assured us that they're "just friends". Celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins (who helped sculpt Kelly's abs) talked to us about her extensive clientele list of celebrity moms like Tia and Tamera Mowry, Pynk, and Paula Patton. "I'm like the after-baby woman. They come to me and say, 'Help Me'!" Check out our chit chats below:
"Black Girls Rock!" airs November 3rd at 7/6c on BET.

Chris Brown To Be Arraigned Today In D.C., Bow Wow Offers Up Support Posted: 28 Oct 2013 07:13 AM PDT Chris Brown is scheduled to face a judge at the D.C. Superior Courthouse this morning. Deets inside... "Love More" singer Chris Brown is about to face the music this AM after a scuffle with another man went down outside the W Hotel in D.C. early Sunday morning. The fiasco caused Chris to cop a felony assault charge. A 20-year-old man from Beltsville, MD claims he attempted to jump in a picture Chris agreed to take with a female fan. He says Chris punched him and he suffered bruising and swelling in the nose area. He was treated and released from the hospital. According to Chris' camp, though, they say the real story is that the victim didn't (only) photobomb, but he tried to board the tour bus. And they were reacting to his trespassing. The police report also states, as told by D.C.'s WUSA9 News, it was Chris' 34-year-old BODYGUARD....not Chris like other reports stated....who said, "I'm not into that gay sh*t...I feel like boxing." Since Chris is still on probation for the Rihanna domestic violence incident, his probation is now in danger of being in violation. Check out the news report below:
And by the way, Breezy does have some support from a celebrity friend. Bow Wow posted a message on his social media saying:
And tweeted:
We'll keep you posted about today's hearing...

ENGAGED: Future PROPOSES To Ciara With A 15-Carat Diamond Ring! Posted: 28 Oct 2013 06:16 AM PDT Future proposed to his R&B starlet love Ciara over the weekend. Get the deets on their engagement and her ring inside.... Hit-making producer Future popped the question to "Body Party" singer Ciara over the weekend. Future's publicist, Chris Chambers, confirmed the news to the Associated Press saying the "I Wanna Be With You" rapper dropped to one knee last night as CiCi celebrated her 28th birthday in New York City. She tweeted about her excitement yesterday saying: Although Ciara hasn't revealed a pic of her ring yet, reports say it's 15-carats! It's interesting that Future followed in Kanye West's footsteps by 1) proposing while he's on tour 2) popping the question on his fiancee's birthday and 3) giving CiCi a 15-carat ring. So it looks like Future and Ciara took a page right out of Kanye and Kim's playbook. Or maybe the fellas just so happened to have the exact same plan in mind. You'll recall that we also put Ciara on semi-preggers watch (we're still not totally convinced but some folks are). Interesting timing... But we love LOVE. CONGRATS to the couple!

Kanye West Opens PopUp Shop...Next Door To DASH + Unleashes About Barneys & Ish Talkers Posted: 28 Oct 2013 05:31 AM PDT
Kanye West was pretty busy this weekend. While performing in Vegas on his Yeezus Tour, he had some things to get off his chest about the Barneys racial profiling situation, classism, racism, and other ish.
Check out his mid-concert "speech", plus his new pop up shop he conveniently opened right next door to his fiancee's family boutique....
Yep...this really happened. After shutting down Vegas, 'Ye took his Yeezus tour to L.A. and commemorated his concerts in the city by opening up a Yeezus pop-up shop with his DONDA camp. The shop has Yeezus tour merch and other Kanye merch. And, of course, the shop is right next door to Kim K.'s family's store DASH. Talk about a two-fer.
But his concert in Vegas is what had folks talking. During the middle of him unleashing about plenty of social issues, 'Ye recited a few lines from "New Slaves" as it seems pretty relevant in the face of the Barneys racial profiling situation.
He talked about no one controlling what he has to say:
Peep two videos below:

Nelly & Tae Heckard Party It Up At Compound Posted: 27 Oct 2013 08:18 PM PDT Nelly hosted at Compound nightclub last night and brought his girlfriend Tae Heckard along with him. Check out how the cute couple partied until the lights came on inside... Nelly may not claim the two are a couple, but we all know the deal. The rapper and his TV actress boo Tae made it a date night partying it up at Compound in Atlanta last night. The twosome were spotted arriving together and having some cutesy moments while Tae made her faces for the cameras:
We're told at the end of the night, Nelly busted out singing Jodeci songs on the mic for his girl. "LAHH ATL" star Karlie Redd was also there for the cameras.
Well aren't these two cute...

YBF Ladies Of Hollywood Take Over Black Girls Rock! Posted: 27 Oct 2013 11:40 AM PDT All of our fave YBF chicks made their way to the New Jersey Performing Arts Center Saturday night for the BET taping of Black Girls Rock! Check out all the fabulosity and non-stop gorgeousness that hit the carpet and the stage inside (plus, we've got a few spoilers about the show).... It was a "Girlfriends" reunion on last night's pink carpet! Jill Marie Jones, Persia White, Tracee Ellis Ross and Golden Brooks looked their usual fab selves as they reunited to present the Shot Caller Award to the show's creator, Mara Brock Akil. Mara also gave a tearful and heartfelt speech in acceptance. Golden & Jiil--aka Maya and Toni--posed it up and showed that black girls just get better with age. Persia, who recently starred on "Vampire Diaries", kept it simple and chic in this flowy grey dress. And Tracee kept it edgy in all black as she posed it up with her good friend Regina King. Both served as hosts of the show. Mariah Carey hit the stage rocking a midriff baring top and embellished maxi skirt as she presented the Living Legend award to Patti LaBelle. When Ms. Patti stopped Mariah from walking off stage and asked her to "hold her award", MiMi told her about her arm being "a little weak." Ms. Patti snapped back and told her to hold that ish anyway. Hilar!
Kelly Rowland and her sheer pants posed it up with her celeb trainer and workout DVD partner, Jeanette Jenkins, and Jeanette's little Goddaughter Ada. How precious! Teaching the little ones early how much they rock... Kelly also switched it up to hit the stage with Sevyn Streeter. Best Man Holiday actress Nia Long flaunted those post baby curves in a skin tight black dress, with her engagement ring and a bold red lip to boot. Chick i making 42 look like 32....
"Second Generation Wayans" star Tatyana Ali stood out in this white small cutout gown with a heavily embellished rosette shoulder. Super chic look for her. And she presented a M.A.D girl award (Making A Difference) to 7-year-old Brooklyn Wright. Stunningly gorge WNBA star Skylar Diggins rocked a hot black gown for the occasion. She was there to present the Venus Award. "DWTS" contestant and "Glee" star Amber Riley is showing off the results of all those dance rehearsals. Looking good chick! KeKe Palmer is fresh off the accolades from the "CrazySexyCool: TLC Story" biopic. And she presented the Young & Gifted award to ballerina Misty Copeland while looking fab in this black sparkling princess gown.
Queen Latifah received the Rock Star Award and looked amazing last night. And that Award was presented by the gorge (and newly coiffed with a pixie cut) Jennifer Hudson.
Tennis champ Venus Williams kept it extra colorful in a floral strapless dress...and these multicolored braids.
LaLa Anthony rocked a black halter Pucci jumpsuit. And she draped herself in diamonds to top it all off. Gorgeous.
E-V-E kept it girly in this frilly grey cinched waist dress.
Michelle Williams rocked her usual cocktail dress look. Ja Rule hit the carpet with his wife Aisha Atkins to show his support for Black Girls Rock!
And the Black Girls Rock! creator herself, Beverly Bond, was simply fab in a black strapless draped gown. Loves it! "Black Girls Rock!" airs November 3rd at 7/6c on BET.
