T.I. has leased a new home in Buckhead and it has folks wondering if he's making plans to move out of his marital home?  See pics inside....

TMZ has revealed that "The Family Hustle" star T.I. has leased a home in Atlanta's exclusive Buckhead neighborhood.  The new property is 4 BR estate featuring a large pool, outdoor kitchen and entertainment area.

Sources say T.I. leased the home because it's only two minutes from his recording studio and cuts out his 40-minute commute into the city.

Although we've seen T.I. and Tiny air out their marital woes on social media, we believe this bachelor pad will be used for business purposes.  T.I. isn't moving out.

Fresh from their Dominican Republic anniversary vacay, Beyonce, rocking a BASS by Ron Bass sweatshirt (above) and her hubby Jay Z were eyed in Indio, CA over the weekend. The Carters crashed Coachella with surprise appearances for the hip hop heads. Bey hopped on stage with her sister Solange during her set for an impromptu dance routine to Solo’s song, “Losing You.”
 

Also Jay hit the stage with Illmatic rapper Nas (the night before) for an epic performance of their hit “Dead Presidents” and then Jay performed “Where I’m From” solo.

Love them.

Rihanna must have had a private jet/helicopter waiting for her outside the MTV Movie Awards last night because the pop princess was spotted partying at Coachella. Still in her Hyein Seo jacket and Hyein Seo “fear” headband she rocked during her “Monster” performance with Eminem, RiRi was spotted taking in the moment, with a blunt in her hand, of course.

Rapper A$AP Rocky made his way to Coachella and attended the Alexander Wang X H&M party at the Indio Performing Arts. A$AP and his alleged fiancée Chanel Iman made their first public appearance at the music festival after he supposedly popped the question.

After her afternoon rounds, Sebastian’s mom also hit up a party last night in Indio, California.

And Diddy was spotted in a red Biggie sweatshirt, walking into a party after hitting the stage the night before with Pharrell and Busta Rhymes to perform, “Pass The Courvoisier,” and taking the stage with Nas for “Hate Me Now.”

And for the concert performance...

Jhene Aiko hit the stage for her first time at Coachella, bringing out rap buddies Drake and Childish Gambino.

Jhene opened her set by bringing out Childish Gambino for “Bed Peace.” She also belted out tracks from her Sail Out EP, plus covers of Erykah Badu’s “On & On” and Tupac’s “Keep Ya Head Up.”

The 25-year old singer sang “From Time” and Drizzy made a guest appearance!  The duo shared a long embrace and then Drake shared, “This is my first time at Coachella, by the way, so I want to let you know that it’s a motherf*ckin’ honor to be here with you tonight, and you better make some noise for Jhené one more time.”

Check out Jhene’s concert performance clips below:

BONUS:

In case you missed it, King Bey took a spill during her final performance in Lisbon for her MCWT. Bey is slowly walking up the stairs to take the stage when she suddenly falls. In true Bey fashion, she hopped right back up as if nothing happened and got on with the show. Check it above.

The rumors were true.....there WILL be a Nikko and Mimi Faust sex tape.  As you'll see in the trailer above, the making (and sale) of the sex tape will be a major storyline this season on LAHH ATL.  Mind you....Mimi and Stevie J have a young daughter together.  SMH....

Partnering with VIVID may have worked wonders for the "careers" of Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton, but it will be interesting to watch how this plays out for Mimi.

As usual, each of the ladies had a "score" to settle and we will surprisingly see Cynthia Bailey and NeNe sitting on opposing sides of the stage and having a few verbal spats of their own. 

Later, NeNe Leakes joined Andy Cohen for an exclusive interview on "WWHL" where she hinted that Cynthia doesn't add anything to the show and should be replaced.  The shade is real......

The YBF ladies kept it sultry on Sunday night's 2014 MTV Movie Awards red carpet.  Lupita pulled off a million colors in one look, Rihanna made a sexy bedroom robe look like it belongs on a red carpet, and Nicki Minaj flossed those curves in a little black ASSet-hugging maxi dress.

 

Check out those ladies, plus more inside....

 

 photo lupita-nyongo-open-back-at-mtv-movie-awards-06_zpsa6dc49ae.jpg

Lupita Nyong'o lit up the carpet at the Nokia Theater in L.A. Sunday night looking stunning in a bright, multi colored Karl Lagerfeld’s Fall 2014 collection pleated dress.  And it's giving us a chic confetti vibe.

The Oscar winner paired her fun high fashion look with a pair of cerulean-blue Casadei ‘Blade’ pumps.

Perfect like always.

Lupita was on hand to present the award for Best On Screen Transformation.  And the winner was the man many are secretly hoping will be her boo very soon--Jared Leto.

Once she handed him the award, he flirted heavily, as usual, giving her a lingering hug and saying receiving an award from her is an award in itself.  Mmmhmm...

 

 photo rihanna-mtv-movie-awards-2014-07_zpsfdb1ee02.jpg

Meanwhile, performer Rihanna and those legs of hers showed up on the carpet in couture...and looking like this:

 photo rihanna-mtv-movie-awards-2014-01_zps291117b1.jpg

RiRi kept it extra sexy in a white satin bustier and matching robe from the Ulyana Sergeenk Couture SS2014 collection.  She paired it all with tussled curls, ivory Manolo Blahnik shoes, a Vieri necklace, and Neil Lane and Ana Khouri earrings and rings.

Looks like chick is straight going to bed after her "Monster" performance with Eminem.  But some type of way, she pulled it off.

 

 photo nicki-minaj-mtv-movie-awards-2014-05_zps77c8fc3a.jpg     

Ms. Minaj served up some curves and cakes in an Alexander McQueen black figure hugging dress with sheer details on the sides.  And she kept her makeup and hair to a minimal and let the dress and her old caged jewelry do the talking:

Nicki showed off the dress backstage with her The Other Woman co-star Leslie Mann and at home before leaving out for the night.  By the way, Nicki presented an award alongside her co-stars Cameron Diaz, Leslie and Kate Upton.

 

23-year-old Rita Ora showed off her svelte bod she's been working so hard to perfect.

The upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey star and Rimmel beauty spokesman who once had a singing career (I mean, is that still happening?) rocked a deep plunging Barbara Casasola dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and an Edie Parker "Hold It" clutch.  And while presenting for Best Shirtless Performance alongside Jessica Alba, Rita also accessorized with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Rocsi Diaz kept it cool in an adorable two piece look by Monica Rose for Lovers + Friends. The "Entertainment Tonight"  beauty rocked the Charlie Skirt and Lucia Crop Top, both in white vegan leather with laser cut hem detailing. The look is from stylist Monica's second collaboration with Lovers + Friends, which debuted this month. Loves it.

Disney star Zendaya kept it stylish in a yellow and black printed Ungaro dress, Christian Louboutin shoes, and jewelry by Jacob & Co., Dionea Orcini, and John Hardy.

Chick loves a statement dress or statement coat.

And model Chrissy Teigen was there to stir up a little trouble in a flirty blush Ulyana Sergeenko dress, Christian Louboutin metallic shoes, and Shylee Rose jewels.  Pretty.

2014 MTV MOVIE AWARDS: Eminem & Rihanna LIGHT UP The Stage With “Monster” Performance

Posted: 13 Apr 2014 09:16 PM PDT

 photo rihemperformance2.png

Rihanna and Eminem lit up the stage at the 2014 MTV Movie Awards at the Nokia Theatre in L.A. Sunday night. Check out their highly-anticipated performance inside…

In a white t-shirt with no pants, white oversized Antwerp-based designer Hyein Seo jacket and Hyein Seo headband that read “fear”, RiRi took the stage with rapper Eminem for their “Monster” performance. Rih’s performance look was pulled straight from the runway from Hyein Seo’s 2014 Fall/Winter line. You’ll recall Rihanna wore another one of Seo’s “fear” pieces last month at COMME des GARÇONS fashion show at Paris Fashion Week.

The duo will hit the road this summer on a mini-stadium The Monster tour as a follow up to Em’s previous stadium tour with Jay-Z in 2010. The pair will hit three cities this summer including Los Angeles' Rose Bowl on August 7th, N.J.'s MetLife Stadium on August 16th and Detroit's Comerica Park on August 22nd.

Check out RiRi & Em’s MTV Movie Awards performance below:

The Bajan beauty won an award earlier in the evening for Best Cameo Performance in the comedy This is the End. Congrats Rih!

Celebs took over another day of Coachella.  Check out who was spotted around the Indio, CA festival grounds on Day 2 of the biggest music festival of the spring...

The hipsters, trendy ones, music heads and styleholics come to play at Coachella every year.  And we spotted a few YBF folks sprinkled throughout the fest on Day 2 Saturday.

Fresh off performing with her band Lola Wolf at the Dickies and Tilly's Coachella Event on friday, Zoe Kravitz took in Day 2 as a spectator.  And hand in hand with a new boo.  Chick keeps her one, doesn't she?

Former "CSI" star and current "Mistresses" star Gary Dourdan was his usual ladies-man self as he posed it up with lots of female fans.

Christina Milian spent some time pushing her Platinum E Hookahs at Day 2 of the Kari Feinstein Music Festival Style Lounge at La Quinta Resort & Club.  She had some fun with fellow singer Kate Nash and more:

Model Jourdan Dunn was being her usual fabulous self as she posed it up at UGG Australia's Style Haven house party at Villa Sereno.  While the shoe company showcased the Spring Summer 2014 Collection, in celebration of Coachella, Jourdan took the opportunity to show exactly why she's one of the hottest models in the game:

Ashanti FLAUNTS Her Curves At 'The Top Rank Tweetup,' SLAYS Her National Anthem Performance For Pacquiao vs Bradley Rematch

Posted: 13 Apr 2014 11:08 AM PDT

 photo Ash1.jpg

Ashanti made a guest appearance at MGM Grand yesterday for a “tweetup” with fans, plus she sang the National Anthem for the Pacquiao vs Bradley rematch. See Ashanti’s stunning looks of the night and video of her performance inside…

 photo Ash2.jpg

Ashanti is giving Tae Heckard a run for her money after she showed up in a long-sleeved hip-hugging blue/gray Celebboutique ‘Amara’ wrap dress paired with Christian Louboutin Unbout illusion pumps at The Top Rank Tweetup at Michael Mina Pub 1842 inside MGM Grand yesterday.

The 33-year-old singer has been putting in a lot of promo work and having plenty of fun since the release of her new album, performing at B.B. Kings recently and dropping 10 stacks at a strip club during her downtime.
 

 photo Ash3.jpg

 photo Ash4.jpg

Before singing the National Anthem for the Pacquiao vs. Bradley rematch, the Braveheart singer met up with fans for a meet-and-greet, smiling and laughing as she gave out autographed copies of her new album and she also gave one lucky fan a free PlayStation 4.

 photo Ash5.png

Ashanti then slipped into a sexy, cut-out black Michael Costello gown to open up the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley 2 rematch fight. That dress is HOT. Wonder if Ashanti’s sexy gown gave Manny Pacquiao the motivation he needed to defeat his opponent with a unanimous decision.

Shanti nailed her Anthem performance, which you can check out below:

Chick clearly has been training hard with her vocal coach.
