The Atlanta Housewives (and a husband) trekked it to Cancun this week to celebrate Fantasia turning the big 3-0! And we have the celebratory pics inside that are heating up Instagram…
“Without Me” singer Fantasia Barrino turned 30 on Monday, so she and a handful of her friends made their way to Cancun, Mexico for some fun in the sun. "RHOA" star Kandi Burruss-Tucker, her husband Todd, Phaedra Parks, Shekinah Jo and friends stripped down to their swimsuits to enjoy some pool fun. And Tasia is looking damn good these days, rocking a sexy red cut-out one piece.
Shekinah Jo and Tasia flashed their smiles in their matching bathing suits as they partied in the pool.
Fanny and Kandi posed it up for a pic before the turn up. Kandi said, “The birthday girl is here!!!! @tasiasword is looking hot! Time for the turn up to begin!!!!!”
The Southern Belle Phaedra Parks came to Cancun…face beat and all…
Tasia got all modelesque for a mini photoshoot in her red-hot bathing suit.
Shekinah flexed on some haters in her red one-piece after commenters on her Instagram went in on her about her supposedly gaining weight. She said, “It's always great to be around great people!!!!!! And to everyone who is talking about how much weight I have picked up, guess what I don't care what you think or how you feel about my weight!!!!! One thing you need to know is that I am blessed!!!! And I am free! oh yes, and I am HAPPY!!!!!!! Oh yes, and I don't have a problem with men!!!!! They stay trying to get at me!!!!! But I am doing me!!!! Never forget that!!!! Independent, I have my own everything!!!!! I don't want for nothing!!!!! I go when I want, I do what I want!!!!! And I thank GOD everyday for it all!!!! And also I thank God for the people he put in my life to help make my dreams come true!!!!!! So be BLESSED!!!!!!!” Tell 'em chick!
Kandi’s husband Todd Tucker started his vacation working, but ended up passed out and wrapped in covers after one too many. Kandi jokingly said, “Why @todd167 got out the shower & layed on the bed wrapped in a towel like a baby??? Lol! I guess that's what happens when you have to many Patron shots! #tooturnedup #Fatasias30thBdayTrip #Funtimes”
Fun times. Peep the videos below. Fantasia turning up: Tasia and Kandi singing happy birthday to their friend/stylist: Photos/Videos: Kandi's IG/Fantasia's IG/Shekinah's IG |
| LOVERS & FRIENDS: Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran & Christina Milian PARTY In Hollywood Posted: 02 Jul 2014 07:38 AM PDT
Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran & Christina Milian were spotted partying in Hollywood last night. Find out where they went inside... My my my........
What a difference a good night's rest makes. Chris Brown, who appeared fully recovered from his sloppy club exit over the weekend, partied at the Emerson Theatre in Hollywood last night. These eyes are still telling a story though.
He was warmly greeted by fans after his much heralded appearance on the 2014 BET AWARDS.
Chris' designated driver, Karrueche Tran, was spotted walking in....thankfully. We hope KT is helping Chris stay away from bad influences. But, TMZ reports that he was throwing up gang signs at the club a few nights ago so......
Christina Milian, who recently broke off her engagement with Jas Prince, partied alongside Chris and her bestie Karrueche and other friends. And no, we're not believing the rumors of a romance brewing between her and her YMCMB boss Lil Wayne....yet.

| Serena's Wimbledon Health Scare -- Exits Match After Illness Causes MAJOR Struggle! Posted: 02 Jul 2014 06:56 AM PDT
Yesterday's doubles match was a scary situation for Serena Williams. Details on why her bizarre actions and struggle on the court were all a result of a health issue.... Watching the most powerful tennis champ in the world struggle with bouncing, catching, and serving a ball was scary to see. Yesterday at Wimbledon, Serena and her sister Venus were taking on Kristina Barrois and Stefanie Voegele when Serena was acting completely unlike herself. Fifteen minutes prior to the match, news reports state she was teary eyed and had a hard time getting through the warmups. The court officials went to speak to her while medics took her blood pressure, and she decided to power through. But it seems her body wasn't having it.
A dazed Serena serving up no fewer than four double faults in the third game of the Round 2 match. And eventually she had to call it quits. She was spotted leaving the court in tears. In a statement yesterday, Serena revealed it was due to a virus:
Her sister Venus added, “Unfortunately, Serena has been feeling unwell for the past few days and she just couldn’t play to her potential today. I’m really proud of her trying because we just love playing doubles together.’’ Serena's a Grade A fighter so we know she'll recover and return to the top. Get well soon 'Rena!

Robin Thicke is still trying his damnedest to get Paula Patton back. And now he’s finally ready to talk about it. Find out what he said about his split with his estranged wife and peep the behind-the-scenes pics of Keyshia Cole and 2 Chainz for her newest video “N*iggas Like You” inside… After pouring his heart out singing “Forever Love” in yet another attempt to get his estranged wife Paula Patton back at the 2014 BET Awards, Robin Thicke is finally breaking his silence about their shocking uncoupling. His new album Paula hit stores today and to promote his newest LP, he hit up Hot 97’s Ebro in the Morning Show and got very candid about heading down Splitsville lane with the woman he has been with since they were 14-yers-old. During the interview, the Paula singer revealed he has not seen his wife in four months…yes four! And that’s the reason why he decided to name the album after her.
The ring he’s wearing on his ring finger nowadays? Nope…it’s not his wedding ring. He talked about how he and Paula did everything together and built everything they have…together, so it’s hard to leave something so familiar. He admitted that he messed up and he takes full responsibility for his actions but also said,
By the end of the interview, he talked about his 4-year-old son Julian (whom he shares with Paula). He dished on how he would let Julian listen to his songs and he’d say “Daddy, this one is for radio and this one is for the album.” Too cute! Check it: And on a new video shoot...
Keyshia Cole is gearing for the release of her new studio album Point Of No Return, which is slated to drop this summer. And in preparation, she is currently working on the visuals for a new track featuring 2 Chainz titled, “N*ggas Like You.” On the heels of shooting the video for her lesbian-lusting “SHE” track, Keyshia is putting in work for the rest of the visuals to accompany her singles. She tweeted, “@hairweavekiller thank u so much for being apart of this album! Coming thru and also being apart of the visual! [heart emoji] 4 Life." The “SHE” singer will be taking her talents on the road, kicking off her “Point of No Return” tour on July 20th in Minneapolis. And we can expect appearances from artists such as Wale, Juicy J and August Alsina as well as production from Mike WiLL Made-It, Stargate, Mario Winans, and RedOne on her new LP. Peep the behind-the-scenes pics below:

Track and Field has a new "Queen"....... last name Harrison. Come inside and meet the American hurdler and sprinter who's bringing style, sex appeal and GREAT hair to the sport. And of course, major talent.
We love fresh faces of YBF folks who are slaying their respective fields. Stepping up to the hurdle with style, flair and class, meet Queen Harrison....track and field has a new superstar. Born in Loch Sheldrake, New York and raised in Richmond, Virgina, Queen is gearing up for the 2016 Olympics and has been killing the competition in the meantime. This past weekend, Queen caught some eyes and set Twitter on fire while competing at the USA Championships in California after placing second. And she even beat out Olympians like LoLo Jones. While she was prepping for the London games in 2012, she became injured and was controversially disqualified at the Olympic trials. But she's back and ready for the spotlight. Peep her pics (and her LOVE for hair):
Olympian! Hurdler! Hair Lover! Loving life and living out my dreams, one race at a time. She also competed in the 400 meter hurdles at the 2008 Summer Olympics. Among her many accolades, she won The Bowerman, the "Heisman of Track and Field" in 2010.
And Ms. Harrison is truly a "Queen" on track. Among her numerous accolades, she also was the first woman to win both the 100m and 400m hurdles titles at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
On Instagram, followers are treated to Queen's various "GAME FACE" posts and make no mistake....she is always BEAT for a competition. Eyes popping, lips popping, and hair flowing. And winning. We like it. Watch the "Queen" in action below:

Well this certainly had us cackling. Over the weekend, Erykah Badu crashed a live news broadcast in New York. And in the midst of the reporter shooting his segment, Ms. Badu tried to steal a kiss! But he wasn’t having it. Peep the funny exchange inside…
Over the weekend, Mario Diaz of New York station PIX 11 was reporting the latest updates on the recent arrest of "Transformers" actor Shia LaBeouf. Ms. Badu spotted the news reporter and did what a lot of people do when they’re trying to get their quick 15 seconds of local fame…make faces and walk aimlessly in the background. After walking past the camera a few times while smiling in her top hat, the 43-year-old singer tried to kiss the news anchor who quickly shoved her away and kept reporting the news. He then referenced Ms. Badu as a "fan" who tried to kiss him. Ha!

Meet Maya Peterson, the high school student who was ousted from her role as student body president after pics of her "mocking" white male students surfaced online. It's causing an uproar online, likely because it all went down at the most expensive school in the country.
SPEAK ON the school's actions inside.... Maya Peterson, above, is the former student body president at the Lawrenceville School in New Jersey. It's the most expensive high school in America with tuition reportedly topping $53,000 year! Before we proceed, let's point out why Maya stands out among her peers. 1. She is one of a handful of black students. 2. She's openly gay. 3. Her family paid her tuition in full. 4. She was the FIRST black female student body president Now for the main event. Maya was removed from her position after her classmates began circulating the pic above. According to an article on Buzzfeed, Maya says she took the pic as a joke because she was questioned about senior photos, where she and 10 friends - all of whom were black - raised their hands in a 'Black Power' salute. So....Maya posted her pic--wearing a Yale sweatshirt and carryng a hockey stick--which she says is a typical 'Lawrenceville boi.' She added hashtags like '#romney2016,' '#confederate,' and '#peakedinhighschool.' In explaining the photo, Maya said, 'Yes, I am making a mockery of the right-wing, confederate-flag hanging, openly misogynistic Lawrentians,...If that’s a large portion of the school’s male population, then I think the issue is not with my bringing attention to it in a lighthearted way, but rather why no one has brought attention to it before…' She added,
Now....here's where the ish comes in. Maya was told she had to resign or face disciplinary action because she offended the people she was elected to represent. In fact, one of her classmates said, 'You’re the student body president, and you’re mocking and blatantly insulting a large group of the school’s male population.' Is wearing a Yale sweatshirt and carrying a hockey stick strictly "white male" attributes or negative connotations. We all know BLACK FACE is. But are these things equally "offensive"? So here are our questions: 1. Was the school justified in ousting her from her position because of photos deemed "offensive" by classmates? 2. Can we call a college sweatshirt and a piece of sporting equipment "culturally offensive"?

So somebody’s mad. And it seems to be over the winner of the “Best Group” category at the 2014 BET Awards. Young Money took home the award beating Tank, Tyrese & Ginuwine (TGT) and Tank’s pissed! Find out what he had to say when you go inside…. The 2014 BET Awards have come and gone but it seems it’s still fresh on the minds of some of its nominees. One in particular…R&B singer Tank. Tank’s group TGT (consisting of him, Tyrese and Ginuwine) were defeated by the Young Money team in the “Best Group” category. And Tank is upset…and confused over it. With their debut album Three Kings debuting at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, Tank is trying to figure out how Young Money won the best group category when they’re not even a real group and the hypocrisy behind it all. The R&B crooner claims he didn’t even want the award but rather for the real winner to win the award (which we assume would be TGT according to him). He rants:
We kinda agree with Tank about Young Money not being an actual group...but is he salty?
