The "Love & Hip Hop: ATL" reunion is right around the corner.  And now, we've got a preview of what to expect.  Remember when we told you a few days ago a shoe went flying upside someone's head at the reunion and a fight broke out?  Well, peep the preview inside involving MiMi Faust & Joseline Hernandez.  Plus, Stevie J. gives details on how he & Joseline got married at the Justice of the Peace....

 

 

In case you care, Joseline & MiMi had an unsurprising fight at the "LAHH: ATL" reunion.  TheYBF.com was there at the taping so we already let you know about what went down.  But here's the first preview (above) of what that fight was about. 

When creator and moderator Mona Scott-Young pointed out MiMi's boob job and instigated the situation by asking Joseline what SHE thought about it.....all hell broke loose.  "You just mad because I took yo baby daddy" is the type of ghetto-tasticness was said before Joseline's large shoe went flying at MiMi.  She tried it.

Check out the foolishness above and see what we define as foolywang material.  VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” two-part reunion airs Monday, August 5 & August 12 at 8PM ET/PT.

 

Meanwhile, Stevie J. did an interview with Hip Hop Weekly where he describes just how he and Joseline got married.  Here's an excerpt:

HHW: Now that you’ve gone to a Justice of the Peace, will you do another ceremony?

STEVIE J: When the show permits, we’ll do it on the show or something, or have our own show and have some kids on the show.

HHW: How are you going to deal with Mimi now that you and Joseline are a solid couple?

STEVIE J: There’s some jealousy there but I don’t believe there’s enough to where there would be a problem. Joseline is my wife now, and Mimi is the mother of my child. Not a whole lot can be done. But I can make sure that Mimi will always be good. That’s not going to change. But I’m married now — I’m married now!

HHW: How does it feel?

STEVIE J: I feel great!

HHW: How does Joseline feel?

STEVIE J: She’s got the best f—— man in the whole world.

Let us pray....

Ashanti Hints "Never Should Have" Is About Nelly, Addresses Ciara & Rihanna's Beef, Twerks With Her Mom & Andy On "WWHL"

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 06:45 AM PDT

 photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-1_zpsf99544e1.jpg

Ashanti hit up "Watch What Happens Live" last night with Andy Cohen & Christina Ricci.  And now that her Braveheart album is dropping September 3rd, she has some things she can now discuss.  Check out her Nelly confession about the single that's about him, plus her and her mom twerking it up, inside....

 photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-7_zpsbeebd6fa.jpg  photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-9_zps35fa41b9.jpg 

Ashanti answered questions from fans.  And here's what we learned:

On the Ciara and Rihanna beef: "I think Rihanna is killin' it right now. She's very free. I think Ciara's definitely doing her thing. I like her new video. I think there's room for every chick that wants to get down and just be big in the business. You have to have your swag and great records so I think there's room.

On her fitness secrets: I've thought about doing a workout video with my trainer. I need to work out more than I do. But when I know I'm going to be on television or shooting a video or something, I kinda cheat and workout 3-4 times a week. When I know I had to do a video a few years ago, I did 1000 crunches every hour for 24 hours. I don't know (if it was healthy) but it looked GREAT. I had to wear a bikini.

 photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-2_zps885cd833.jpg

On Ja Rule: Yeah we're still in touch. You know he's out now! We spoke on the phone, he's in great spirits, he's working on a new album. He's looking kinda brolic now.

On her breakup with Murder Inc: There's no bad blood.  We went through a whole lot.  There was family involved and relationships involved.  It was really hard when that stuff happened.  It was like a black cloud over all of us.  There was a period where we didn't talk as much as we did.  But as it stands today, we're all good.  The whole Murder Inc. family.  We made history together.   We're in the Guinness Book of World Records together. (Record: The fastest selling debut female artist in music history.)

 photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-4_zps014e1a6d.jpg

On whether "Never Should Have" is about her ex Nelly: Well, how do I answer that?  I'll just say its a very real record, that's inspired by a real experience and it came from a real place.

(When Andy said, "So I'm gonna say YES"....Ashanti laughed it up. So, yeah...)

 

 photo watch-what-happens-live-season-10-10030-gal-10_zps55e7c97f.jpg

Tina Douglas, Ashanti's Momanger, was the bartender for the night.  She gave advice to Lindsay Lohan's mom Dina saying, "Please focus on you, so Lindsay can focus on her. People should live their lives, and she should be there to advise, and that's it."

And then, Andy had her & Ashanti teach him how to twerk. See how THAT went down below:

Keri Hilson's been laying low on the scene for a while.  But check out her new look she showed off for fans inside...

The "Pretty Girl Rock" singer has been spending her time boo'd up with her NBA baller Serge Ibaka, hitting a few parties, and taking some time off from the music industry. 

But she gave folks a glimpse at her new look yesterday.  The usually blonde with big curls chick switched up for extra long dark brown braids.  Wonder if she sits on them...

She snapped a pic (above) while furniture shopping yesterday.

So....

DO WE LOVE IT?!

DO GOODERS: Jennifer Hudson, J.Cole, The "Hit The Floor" Cast & More Do The VH1 'DO SOMETHING' AWARDS

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 03:20 PM PDT

 photo dos9_zps457180e4.jpg

Last night, a few of our faves hit up the 2013 Do Something Awards at Avalon in Hollywood.  These awards are all about recognizing those who are doing something to make a difference.  Check out the cast from our new fave show "Hit The Floor" on their hosting duties, plus Jennifer Hudson, J.Cole and more all making appearances.

Before they took the stage to rock out for the VH1 'Do Something' crowd, J-Hud and J.Cole hit the green carpet:

 photo dos8_zpsade5ee40.jpg

Jenny looked great in her animal print blouse, chain and shorts by Versace.  Not sure if those are stockings with these white shoes (y'all know how we feel about white pumps and white shoes)...but other than those things, we think she's keeping up her fabness these days.

 photo mos17_zpsf1355ab6.jpg 

Jenny also took home an award for the work she's done for the Julian D. King Foundation she founded in Chicago in honor of her slain nephew.  She became understandably emotional as she talked about providing much-needed supplies to school children from low-income families.

"I wasn't going to cry, but I'm a cry baby so I can't help it," Jenny said on the awards stage. "It just shows how much it warms my heart to see so many blessed and from our blessings in honor of my nephew...It's one thing to be a celebrity, but it means nothing if you can't help somebody."

Sweet!

J.Cole's still riding the success of his newest album Born Sinner.

The cast of VH1's newest scripted hit, "Hit The Floor", hit the carpet looking fab.  Logan Browning, Katherine Bailess, and Taylour Paige brought their Devil Girls camaraderie to the carpet to do some hosting duties.

Solange COVERS Net-A-Porter's "THE EDIT", REVEALS How Watching Her Big Sis Molded Her As A Performer

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 01:27 PM PDT

 photo brai3.jpg

Solange Knowles covers Net-A-Porter's "The Edit" where she chats about her globe-trotting music career, standing outside of Beyonce's shadow and how her son is inspired by her work. See the spread inside....

Inside e-shooping site Net-A-Porter.com's digital magazine, "The Edit", Ms. Knowles posed for The Vacation Issue on the Croatian coast while modeling some of the summer's hottest beachwear. In the accompanying article, Solange talks about her road to self-discovery and her career-defining performance at Glastonbury.

“After my show I went from stage to stage, and ended up listening to music until 3am. Everyone let me do my thing. They acknowledged me but never interrupted my experience, which I really appreciated.”

The True singer and style goddess also defines her personal style and talks about how her big sister Beyonce helped shape her as a performer.  Here are the highlights:

 

On her career:

“I’m having the time of my life. I have one of the best jobs in the world, and to be able to [perform] for an hour a day and make a career out of it, I’m incredibly humbled by it.”

On defining an identity outside of her sister Beyonce:

“I don’t think any part of myself as an artist has ever had a moment of…intentional execution. It’s all just been an evolution. I’ve been able to watch such an incredible performer as my sister close-up. It’s molded me. And now I’m letting my son watch me.”

On style:

"Style in anything is very important. It’s how we express our individuality, who we are and what we believe in. It’s all a reflection of who I am.”

On her & her entourage's hot style while performing at muddy Glastonbury

“That’s just because we’re Americans, and we didn’t know the real deal – Glastonbury is not Coachella! [Laughs] We did not know the proper dress code....By the third hour there, I was wanting Wellington boots! It was amazing.  It’s a really unique environment. Everyone was so incredibly spirited and happy to be there. I dropped my phone and someone came and gave it back to me later!”

On whether her brother-in-law Jay-Z or sis Bey (both who have performed at Glastonbury) gave her any pointers before performing

"You know, we actually never even talked about it. But both of them had such incredible, iconic Glastonbury performances – I was really proud of them. And I thought that Jay opening with [Oasis’ song] Wonderwall was pretty kick-ass!”

And for the fashion heads, check out Solange's photoshoot with all the hot designer info below:

Ke$ha Was Born With A Tail, But It Was Brutally Amputated! Hear Her Tragic Story Tale HERE!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 01:10 PM PDT

We don't even know where to begin!!!

Ke$ha was born with a tail -- A TAIL!!! -- let's get that out of the way first.

It's true!! The perfectly lovely pop-star admits she came into this world slightly different than most folk, she was sporting a quarter-inch long vestigial tail!!

The 26-year-old divulged all the unbelievable deets:

"I had a tail when I was born. It was a tiny tail, about a quarter of an inch, then they chopped it off and stole my tail. That was when I was little. I'm really sad about that story."

ZOMG!!! We adore this girl so much!!!

Most folks would be totally embarrassed by being born different, and they would NEVER share their story!!

Ke$ha, on the other hand, is only super sad because her tail was chopped off!!! Aww, this gurl has got pluck!!!

We gotta ask, though, was there a formal bris-like cutting ceremony? Did doctors let her keep it in a mason jar?

Uggg! There are sooo many questions she needs to answer in the second season of My Crazy Beautiful Life!

Glee's Cory Monteith Tribute Episode To Feature Drug Addiction Storyline

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:49 PM PDT

Though it was previously announced that Glee's upcoming season would include a tribute to beloved Cory Monteith, we finally have some details to share with you Gleeks.

Earlier today, Fox's entertainment chairman Kevin Reilly stated that the episode is scheduled for October 10th, as the third of the season, and will deal with a drug addiction storyline. He said:

"That is the episode where Cory's character will be written off and will deal directly with drug addiction and with the circumstances surrounding Cory's death."

However, Kevin made sure to note that that doesn't necessarily mean Finn Hudson will be killed off.

The chairman continued to explain that Ryan Murphy and cast members will film PSAs regarding Cory's overdose and drug addiction, set to air throughout the episode. In addition, a fund will be set up in honor of the star with episode's music proceeds:

"It is a celebration and really sad of this really vibrant kid."

Kevin also stated that the season will begin with two episodes honoring The Beatles, before dealing with Cory's death:

"It would be difficult to come out of the gate right away and then recover."

Following the tribute, the show will possibly break for three weeks, given the World Series games, allowing the writers time to "reset."

That said, we're sure this will all be worthy of Cory's memory.

Bethenny Frankel Feels Bad For Teresa Giudice's Legal Woes…NOT!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:38 PM PDT

The skinny girl has no sympathy for the skinny italian!

Teresa Giudice will not be crying on Bethenny Frankel's shoulder anytime soon!

The 42-year-old former Real Housewives of New York City star shared her thoughts on Tre being indicted for fraud this week, while promoting her talk show, Bethenny, in Bev Hills on Wednesday!

The reality TV mama revealed:

"My first thought today was, 'Oh, if they weren't on reality TV, none of this would probably ever be exposed.' And it's just funny how certain people are [like a] moth to a flame. It's almost like -- not that you want to get caught -- but people who love to be in the spotlight often have a lot of skeletons in their closet. It's just an interesting thing."

Geez!

You're dishing so much realness, Bethyy!

She continued her anti-feelings rant by saying:

"I haven't paid that much attention. Do I feel sorry for them? No, I don't. Not so much, because it broke the law. You broke the law and you went on television. That's not really that smart."

She will, however, feel some slight compassion for the Giudice kids:

"I feel badly for them because they have kids, and their kids didn't sign up for this."

Funny you should say that, B!

Isn't your lil' Bryn going through an awful tabloid divorce she was, umm...BORN into?!

...we bet plenty of people are feeling bad for her!

The Real Housewives are really HIGHlarious sometimes!

Jennifer Lopez Inches Away From American Idol Return!? Get The Latest Deets HERE!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:32 PM PDT

Pinch our pecs and call us Wilma, because we must be dreaming!!

J.Lo left American Idol pretty coldly a couple seasons back, but Fox executives kept her judge's seat warm just in case she decided to return!

According to sources close to the situation, Jennifer Lopez is "very close to signing a deal with Fox to return to American Idol next season."

Holy shiitake mushrooms, that would be AH-Mazing!!!

The source continued:

"Both Fox and Jennifer are very happy about this and want it to happen very much."

And those nasty reports about Jenny from the Block being c**k-blocked by The Voice?! Total malarky, apparently!

The source revealed:

"Jennifer never had discussions with NBC about being a judge. She was approached by NBC about performing but had to turn it down because of scheduling conflicts."

So then why did Jennifer leave in the first place?

The source explained:

"She couldn't return last year because she had committed to a world tour. But now that the tour is over, she has more time to raise her family, do movies and pursue television projects."

Ah, now we understand!

Hooray! The Queen lives!! Probably!!!

Justin Bieber's Baby Makes History! Receives Diamond Award After Breaking Sales Record!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:21 PM PDT

WOW!

Justin Bieber is reaching new levels of success every day!

The latest?? The pop star received the Diamond Award during his Newark, New Jersey concert as a result of his record-breaking sales! His single, Baby, reached $12 million, making it "the #1 most certified song ever in US music history!"

That's HUGE!

Ch-ch-check out JB's reaction to the news (above)!!

Now if only he hadn't looked so bored throughout his performance!

Justin reportedly wasn't in top form earlier that night, allegedly lip-syncing some numbers and looking like he'd rather be elsewhere. Though, the night wasn't without highlights as things improved later on.

The dude was probs just tired of putting on the same performance for a second time! Not that that's an excuse.

Either way, congrats on the record sales, Justin!

American Tourist Killed In Thailand For Singing Along With Karaoke Band!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:11 PM PDT

So, so sad.

An American tourist who demanded to keep singing along with a Thailand bar's karaoke band was killed by one of the musicians in a brawl outside the establishment.

According to a local Thai police official, Dallas businessman Bobby Ray Carter Jr. was 51 years old when he died in a hospital far away from his home in Texas, after being stabbed in the chest from the altercation that happened early Wednesday morning at Ao Nang beach in Thailand's Krabi province.

Bobby and his son, Adam, had reportedly gotten drunk, started singing with the band, and refused to leave the stage to let other customers sing along.

Reportedly, things escalated into a heated argument between Bobby and the band after he knocked over their tip jar, and finally he was stabbed in the chest with a metal rod in the scuffle that ensued outside the Little Longhorn Saloon.

Meanwhile, his son sustained injuries to the head.

All three band members were arrested. There are conflicting reports about whether or not they face charges of assault and murder, or causing death by physical attack.

What terrible news! Our hearts are with the Carters in this tough time.

Nick Cannon To Get More Rich And Famous As Host Of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous Redux

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 12:01 PM PDT

This Fall, America's Got Talent's Nick Cannon will expand his hosting duties from serving the entire U.S. to meeting with just the top 10% of earners for Style's new take on Robin Leach's 1980s TV show, Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.

While it seems like Nick and his wife, Mariah Carey, might be more appropriate as subjects of the show than hosting it, Nick says:

"Even though I am fortunate to have certain luxuries, sometimes, I am even amazed by what people with money have and do. I want to remind people that just because you might be rich and famous, it doesn't mean you have to take yourself too seriously."

Wait, was Occupy Wall Street was about trying to get the wealthy to lighten up? LOLz!!!

We'll probably watch this show at least once or twice just because we're nosy about other people's lives, but if there can be a guarantee of Nick Cannon teaching the well-heeled and well-connected the Me Sexy dance, we're there every week!

Champagne wishes and caviar dreams to all!

Chris Hemsworth Looks Thor-oughly Epic In New Thor: The Dark World Poster!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 11:50 AM PDT

By Odin's badass eye patch, we love this new poster for Thor: The Dark World!

In this one, we see the whole cast of characters in an epic tableau, which is very reminiscent of the old Star Wars posters of yore!

Natalie Portman's Jane Foster looks seksi in some armor, Chris Hemsworth's Thor looks like he's about to hit the world's largest nail in the head, and even Anthony Hopkins' Odin looks just about ready to eat the new villain Malekith with some fava beans (slurp!).

And, of course, there's an army of elves! And not the kind that transform a hollowed out tree into a bakery! They're dark elves! OoooO!

Although judging by the lack of visits from food inspectors, the Kiebler elves might be actually more dangerous. Plus, they have Stacy Kiebler in their fam.

We also see the beautiful Asgardian palace as the Fist of Malekith, the villain's ship, hovers above it! Uh, you'd get like 143 parking tickets for doing that out here in LA, Malekith!

Also visible is warrior-goddess and Thor's one time hookup buddy, Sif, played by Jamie Alexander. Yeesh, some exes just won't leave you alone, right Robert Pattinson?

The Dark World comes out on November 8th, and we can't wait to see it!

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 11:42 AM PDT

How did we miss this BEFORE!!!

Really, Biebs? You must have made one fan sooo happy.

During his Tuesday night concert at Newark, NJ's Prudential Center, Justin Bieber got up close and very personal with a particular iPhone!

That's right, Perezcious readers. While asking his audience to kindly refrain from throwing hard objects onstage, one fan chucked an iPhone his way -- but, of course, JB reacted to this by shoving the Apple tech ballz deep down his pants!

LOLZ!

Ch-ch-check out the recorded phone-near-genitals incident around the 2:10 mark (above), then take a look at it from a different angle near the 1:15 mark...AFTER THE JUMP!!!

A GRANDMA'S PLEA: Cissy Houston PENS Open Letter to Bobbi Kristina, Wants Her To Be HAPPY And Stay SINGLE!

Grammy-winning singer Cissy Houston has penned an open letter to her granddaughter Bobbi Kristina, expressing her love and letting her know that she will always love her.  Read the letter inside....

 

Previously, we told you that Bobbi Kristina had been upset with with her grandmother Cissy Houston for penning Remembering Whitney, and the two hadn't spoken in months.

Yesterday, Cissy released an open letter to Bobbi Kristina letting her know that she misses her and only wants what's best. She added that she's not excited about her marrying Nick Gordon, but would never speak in a negative manner about their relationship in public.  Here's her letter......

Dear Krissi,

I love you. My heart is full. I don’t know where to begin.
You may think I don’t understand you and what you’re feeling but remember, Baby, I lost my mom when I was just a child. So, I do know some of the sadness and loneliness of your life since your mom passed away.

Although I know her spirit is with you always, I cry with you and for you. I grieve with you and for you … for all of the days and nights you need to tell her something or ask her advice or just hear her voice … and she’s not there. For all of the times when you need to put your head in her lap or feel her arms around you and she’s not there … For the good and happy times you want to share with her; for the fun and laughter you enjoyed together, but she’s not there … for every day and every night you just miss her … I know.

She was your mom and she was my child and Krissi, I loved her too, more than you might imagine. I know you were upset that I wrote my book, “Remembering Whitney," but I hope one day you’ll read it and understand that I just wanted to let the world see some of My Nippy—the sweet, friendly, loving little girl with the extraordinary beauty and boundless talent, who grew into the superstar and musical icon the world saw. I want people to know—fans and critics and ordinary people alike—Nippy was a whole person, and like all of us, she was good and bad AND she was my joy!

Krissi, all I want for you is your good health and your happiness. I want you to have a good life that you can be proud of. Do I want you to get married in the near future? No, I don’t. I think you’re too young and I wish you’d wait. But that’s because I’m Grandma. I’m supposed to worry about you. I’m supposed to wonder If Nick or ANY man is good enough for you, My Baby’s Baby. I’m not angry with Nick and I don’t think, nor did I ever say anything hurtful about him to anyone. I have NEVER publicly commented on your personal life and I don’t intend to. So in the future when you read or hear that Cissy Houston said this or Cissy Houston said that, be confident in the knowledge that it isn’t true.

I try to believe that when your mother passed away the world decided that you belong to them as she did. I’m trying very hard to trust that people who make comments or offer their opinions about you are sincere in their desire for you to be happy. I can only hope they come to realize the best they can offer you is their prayers.

Krissi, as many years as I’ve lived and as many experiences as I’ve had I know I don’t have all of the answers. I do know this, Baby Girl: God’s got you and so do I.
With all my love,

Grandma

 

You can feel the pain and heartbreak in Cissy's words.  We hope that this will lead Bobbi Kristina to put their differences aside and reach out to her.

KISS KISS: Tyra Banks & BOW WOW's Mini Slob-Down Session On "106 & Park"

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 06:35 AM PDT

Another day, another kiss between Tyra Banks and...BOW WOW. Yep, Mr. 106 had a mini slob down session with the hot "ANTM" host on "106 & Park" last night. In case you missed it, we've got the full recap inside...

  photo tb6_zps4b0bbed8.jpg photo tb4_zpseefa3687.jpg  photo tb2_zps7e5d4f9c.jpg

First things first--back in 2009, Bow Wow went on Tyra's talk show and locked lips with the super model for whatever reason.

 photo tb3_zps7ed56303.jpg

Fast forward to last night, Ty Ty hit "106 & Park" to promote the upcoming cycle of "Top Model" with Bow and guest co-host Keshia Chante. And Ms. Banks' curvalicious ridiculously stunning presence had Bow Wow all in a tizzy. So when Tyra asked if they should remix their previous national tv kiss, she moved in, swung her legs on top of Bow, and went in. Well...

Check out the video above. That's one way to promote your show.

 

Bow also reacted to the "big kiss" backstage and said he truly feels like the HOTTEST host on tv. He and Tyra had already kissed on national tv on HER show a while back, and since she came to his house....and kicked off another kiss....he's going to ride his high horse. Check out what he had to say about it below:

Stevie J, Nikko, Joseline and Mimi Go At During The "LAHH ATL" Reunion, Stevie Talks An ENGAGEMENT Spinoff Show

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 06:07 PM PDT

 photo pjl.jpg

Following a failed double-ring ceremony, Stevie J has been tweeting about "marriage" and hinting at a spinoff show.  Get the deets on what's going on and what went down inside the "LAHH ATL" reunion taping in New York before it airs! 

 photo stevie.jpg

TheYBF.com was live on the scene for the taping of the LAHH ATL reunion and we saw first hand what went down with Stevie J, Joseline and Mimi Faust.

Fans of the show will recall that the season finale of "LAHH ATL" saw Stevie J presenting Joseline with a "lifetime partnership" ring and offering Mimi a "lifetime friendship" ring.  This, of course, led to Joseline attemping to assault Stevie....

At the reunion taping in NYC a few weeks ago, tensions were still high with several incidents between the ladies on Stevie J's bus and Mimi's new man Nikko.  At one point, a shoe was thrown and Joseline & mimi went at it.  Also, Stevie "made it rain" on Nikko, and we all know what that disrespect led to.

And though Stevie was still seen wearing the ring that Joseline gave him, we're not totally sure where their relationship stands (and he wouldn't comment on their engagement).  

 

However, thanks to a recent tweet, we suspect Stevie J has something up his sleeves....

 photo stevie.png  

And during a recent interview with Power 107.5, Stevie hinted that he and Joseline were in talks for a spin-off show. “Well, yeah, absolutely. We really appreciate the ‘Love and Hip Hop’ the franchise and you know, we’re definitely in discussions about the spin-off right now.” 

So...we're not sure what Mona Scott Young has in store for Stevie and Joseline but clearly, they aren't going anywhere.

 

In case you missed it, watch Stevie J give both Joseline and Mimi "rings":

 

VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” two-part reunion airs Monday, August 5 & August 12 at 8PM ET/PT.

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 03:27 PM PDT

 photo ScreenShot2013-07-31at60957PM_zps20d2a7eb.png

The OMG Girlz just released their newest music video.  Check out the girls flaunting their dance moves to "Baddie", Nelly and co. in "Get Like Me", plus the brand new trailer for the new season of "Tamar & Vince"....

Nelly just dropped his video for "Get Like Me" featuring Pharrell & Nicki Minaj.  His upcoming M.O. album is due out this fall, so he's giving us a sleek new Colin Tilley-directed black & white vid to promote the track.

Trey Songz, T.I., Nelly Furtado, Future and Florida Georgia Line will also appear on Nelly's upcoming LP.  Peep the vid above.

 

Tameka "Tiny" Cottle is still pushing her girl group "OMG Girlz" to be the next big stars in girl group-dom.  Her daughter Zonnique "Star" Pullins, along with Breaunna "Baby Doll" Womack and Bahja "Beauty" Rodriguez are prepping to release their new EP Labor Day weekend via T.I.'s Pretty Hustle label.

So the girls, who say they push the kiddies to stay in school and maintain positive images, just hit up "106 & Park" to drop off their brand new video for their single "Baddie."

Now that the girls are all grown and mostly out of high school they're giving out a little more grown up vibe, but they still keep the rainbow of colors and quirky fashions front and center.  Check out their twerk, rap & singing skills in their brand new video above.

 

 

And season 2 of "Tamar & Vince" is on the way (September 5th).  So the first look at what to expect has just hit the net. 

With a brand new third family member now sealing the show, we get to see how Vince Herbert & Tamar Braxton adjust to life with baby Logan, their marital woes, and more.  Check out the trailer above.  The shows airs next Thursday on WeTV at 9p ET.

SERIOUSLY: Ciara's New Album Pops Up On GROUPON + Ashanti POSTPONES Album Release (In Case You Missed It)

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 01:36 PM PDT

Singer Ciara's latest disc "Ciara" popped up a part of a GROUPON discount and it's outraged her fans!  Find out about the "Ciara" discount inside and get the deets on Ashanti's delayed album.

 photo ciaragoodded.png

In case you haven't scooped up your copy of Ciara's latest album, it's now available as part of a package deal on GROUPON, which will also get you a copy of her greatest hits. While getting two cds for the price of one seems like it would be a good thing for the consumer, fans and critics of Cici are dragging her on social media.  

You'll recall that Ciara was on the receiving end of a lot of criticism after her Fantasy Ride disc was given away during a KFC promotion.....and now this!

When Ciara was first released, the "I'm Out" singer sold nearly 60,000 copies.  And the GROUPON deal should help the singer sell more albums and reach more people...so it's that a good thing right?

Of course, this is not in the same vein as Jay Z's $20 mill Samsung deal, and we indeed thought this was a joke when we saw it last night.  But, it's real.  And the promotion does actually make sense.  For her. Don't ya think?

 

In other music news...

Fans of Ashanti will have to wait a little longer to hear the NY chick's Braveheart disc.  The singer revealed that she's decided to delay releasing the album via Instagram saying, 


"Hey y'all! So Braveheart is NOT coming out today we have clearances & legalities to take of...It costs to be the boss!!! This CEO sh#t is Not A Game! Lol looking like September."

Braveheart is expected to feature Busta Rhymes, Meek Mill, French Montana, Keyshia Cole and R. Kelly.

Dwyane Wade Forced To Hand Over Sons To Siohvaughn For Visitation After HE Decided To Suspend + Tatyana Ali Speaks On Those Drake Rumors

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 12:48 PM PDT

 photo ScreenShot2013-07-31at25722PM_zpsb079551e.png

Dwyane Wade is being forced by the court to hand over his two boys, Zaire & Zion, to their mother Siohvaughn Wade....for visitation.  Sounds like he didn't trust sending them to moms with her latest stints and all.

 

Deets inside, plus what Tatyana Ali says about those rumors about her and her crush, Drake....

Miami Heat champ Dwyane Wade's been almost all his off-season time with his two sons (pictured above this past weekend on Daddy-Son day).  But that daddy-son time is about to be interrupted.

Remember earlier this month when Siohvaughn hit the streets of downtown Chicago looking like a homeless person and holding up signs claiming she was, in fact, homeless because her NBA ex-husband stole her life from under her? 

Well, Dwyane obviously didn't take kindly to it.  So he took away her visitation rights last week by not delivering the boys to her as scheduled.  According to the custody docs, Sioh gets the boys every other weekend, and two weeks during the summer.

But last week, D had his lawyers filed an emergency suspension on visitation (we're sure the antics above had everything to do with that).  And they requested that she get a psychological evaluation for her "anger management issues."  This is where we would typically say cheating can indeed drive a woman crazy and unable to "manage her anger," but we digress.

According to Gossip Extra, the 3-hour hearing took place today in Miami--with neither Dwyane nor Sioh present.  And the judge ordered him to hand over the boys.

“They (Wade’s legal team) didn’t have a sufficient legal basis to justify the suspension of Siohvaughn’s visitation schedule,” said Lisa Macci, Funches’ attorney.

Sioh did spend Mother's Day a couple months ago with the boys (pics here), but now she has been ordered to continue to receive her rightful visitation.

And more good news for Sioh: She and Dwyane finalized a post-divorce financial settlement last week that gives her $5 milli and other niceties.

In other news, fab "Second Generation Wayans" star Tatyana Ali is revealing all about those Drake rumors on tomorrow's episode of "The Real."

Earlier this year, it was rumored that “Fresh Prince of Bel Air” former child star and rapper Drake hooked up and the story of their one night stand spread like wild fire.  We knew it wasn't true so that's why you didn't see it here...but Tatyana dished to the ladies about what really went down.

Tatyana said:

"No, it’s not true. I literally said in a Huffington Post article that one night stands were my ‘guilty pleasure’ but it was like a joke. All my answers on that thing were jokey. I said a lot of stupid, outlandish things and of course that’s the thing that gets picked up.

...he happened to be at the same club that I had my birthday party at, Supper Club. He got me a bottle of champagne or whatever, we took a picture and then the picture went everywhere."

 

Check out a clip below and tune in Thursday, August 1st to see what else she says about her dating life.

OUT & ABOUT: Evan Ross & His Boo Ashlee Simpson Hit Jessica's Fall Campaign Launch in NYC + Kelis Parties It Up In L.A.

Evan Ross has been parading his new boo Ashlee Simpson around for the world to see he's moved on from his ex.  Check out the twosome boo'd up in NYC for Ashlee's sister Jessica's Fall campaign launch, plus Kelis doing her out in L.A.

Actor Evan Ross and Ashlee Simpson -- who was rocking a Jessica Simpson dress -- attended the launch of the Jessica Simpson Fall 2013 Campaign hosted by Ashlee at Above Allen in NYC yesterday.

We kinda thought these two were extremely awkward together, but maybe that's why they might work.

Ashlee, who used to be married to rocker Pete Wentz and they have a baby boy together, also had a romantic lunch date at Gemma before the event. The couple also dined at the east village restaurant and were spotted holding hands and kissing at their table, before hurrying to their car:

Evan keeps himself a chick doesn't he?

 

Meanwhile, over in L.A., singer Kelis Rogers was spotted at the Sayers Nightclub in Hollywood with friends last night:

She rocked a quirky mustache sweater, a Chanel bag and her glittery loafers for the occasion:

She also recently had a big waterpark adventures birthday party in Cali for her (and Nas') son Knight.  Cute!

Kelly Rowland Gets FALL GLAM For The September 2013 Cover Of ESSENCE, Says "I Could Have Been Tougher Than I Was”

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 10:31 AM PDT

Singer Kelly Rowland covers the latest of ESSENCE Magazine.  Find out what she said about learning to trust herself and being confident inside......

For the latest issue of ESSENCE Magazine, singers, reality tv show judge and Jaguar spokeswoman Kelly Rowland lands on the cover.  And she's glamming it up for the fall.

The flawless Kelly talks about completing her most soul-baring album to date, Talk A Good Game, and snagging a seat at the judge’s table on the American version of the reality competition show The X Factor. She also opened up in the issue about coming into her own, what she’s learned from the industry, her beau (who she notes is quite the cutie!) and how she finally found her own voice.

On Beyonce and the life she wants for herself:

“For a long time I wasn’t happy, but that had nothing to do with Beyoncé. That had to do with me trying to get my life in order and make better decisions for myself. I’m seeing all these wonderful things happen for her and I am happy for her. But I want a path. I want things to pop off for me, too. Not on her level but whatever my level is supposed to be.”

On finding her strength through boxing:

“I see the beauty in boxing...It teaches me strength, physically but mostly mentally. I had to learn my strength, because for so long I could have been tougher than I was.”

On why she was afraid to share her feelings:

“’....cause I didn’t want anybody to judge me. But now I don’t care, Judge me if you want to. And as a matter of fact, it won’t even count, ‘cause the only person who can judge is God.”

 

Kelly's issue hits stands August 9.

Robin Thicke VIBES With The Breakfast Club, DISHES ON "Blurred Lines" Controversy, Paula's NUDE Scenes, Says "White People Are Trying To Claim Me"

Posted: 31 Jul 2013 09:47 AM PDT

 photo robinthickee0.png

Robin Thicke stopped by Power 105 this morning to promote his upcoming album and talk about his breakout success.  Listen to the interview inside....

The summer of 2013 is clearly all about Robin Thicke.  The blue-eyed soul crooner appeared on Power 105.1 where he discussed his recent success and why he wants the world to see wife Paula Patton's ta-tas.  Here are the highlights:

On the "rapey" controversy of "Blurred Lines" 

Pharrell and I would have never gone in the studio to make a song that's deragatory.  We're saying "That Man is Not Your Maker" and that a woman is as powerful as a man at all times.  And they don't need him to define her."

On "Blurred Lines" success:

The biggest thing I think is ]the success] internationally.  I never had any love internationally.  Being number one in like 80 countries,  I think the biggest thing in America is that now White people are trying to claim me.

On sex with Paula:

Sometimes she likes to play groupie and say, "I wanna do it to your music."  [We're SO not surprised...]

On jealousy:

We both get jealous because we're madly in love.  

On wether Paula was tipsy at the BET awards:

She wanted to go out there and do something different.  That's what we do at the house....we try to make sure something memorable happen. [So the answer is....?]

On Paula's nude scene with Denzel Washington int he upcoming movie "2 Guns":

In her new movie "Two Guns" she shows her boobs.  My first response was go for it. 'Cause we're not 21 anymore ad the world should see them at least once.  Her and I have been through so much together. These are the small details of our life.

One thing about Robin is he's totally honest....ALL the time.  Gotta love him.

HE GETS IT FROM HIS WIFE: 55-Year-Old Ice T Posts Shirtless Selfie...As A Warning

He may be laying the other side of the streets as a Detective on "Law & Order: SVU" for the several years now, but Ice-T is telling folks not to get it twisted.  He's still in shape enough to whoop any necessary ass.  Check out his selfie we're sure was inspired by his exhibitionistesque wife CoCo inside...

Apparently, Ice-T has been having folks talking sideways at him on Twitter.  So to remind everyone of his capabilities, despite being 55-years-old now, the former rapper posted a blurry pic of his buffness. 

 photo BQblXjZCAAIBoyTjpg_large_zpsf6c72e1d.jpg

He said, "This morning: MFs popin shit... 55yrs old. 'Don't sleep on the old cats.'"

We assume that was a warning to all of you who thought Ice went soft.
