| Kanye West Cancels On Oprah Via Email?! Posted: 06 Oct 2010 09:10 AM PDT
In case you missed it...
While other celebs would give their first born and reveal their deepest darkest secrets for a shot at sitting on Oprah's couch, Kanye West has so much going on that supposedly he can afford to cancel on the talk show mogul....via email! Find out the deets inside..... <!--break--> According to In Touch magazine, HARPO producers made arrangements for Kanye West to perform at a rooftop location while Oprah Winfrey herself “was going to ask Kanye everything” in the interview segment. Then, with no explanation, Kanye allegedly cancelled via email. An insider says that “Oprah is not happy” over the cancellation because “all the arrangements had been made.” Now...since he joined twitter (@KanyeWest), Kanye has overshared about every facet of his life. Yet...no mention of the Oprah cancellation. Interesting. It's not confirmed to be 100% true yet, but all I know is, you DO NOT cancel on O. Ever.  |
| FOOLYWANG: Drake Openly Chats It Up With Mary Jane In Miami?! Posted: 06 Oct 2010 08:30 AM PDT Hip-hop star Drake may have been caught chatting with Mary Jane while at a club last month, as seen on pictures that have found their way online. See more when you go inside... <!--break--> The Canadian rapper kicked off his “Lights, Dreams and Nightmares” tour in Miami on September 20th, and apparently got the party cracking Rick James style when he later hit Miami Beach hotspot Liv Nightclub in the Fontainebleau Hotel. Sources say the rapper openly lit up a joint...and folks just happened to snap photos of it going down. “I was sitting in the VIP section right next to Drake and he lit up a joint and began to smoke it freely,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “The whole area smelled like weed!” When contacted, Drake's reps had no response as to whether Drake violated a Florida State law banning smoking in restaurants, bars and nightclubs. But seeing that the "green" isn't legal in Florida, we know what law he did violate. Sadly...with all these rappers busting out loads of weapons and cocaine...we're thankful a joint is all it was. But let's not so blatantly break the law next time. You know they're watching you and your crew. Hope Drake isn't trying to end in Miami's version of Rikers Island with an old-school Rick Ross as his corrections officer.

| Boris Kodjoe: I'm OVER The Whole Sex Symbol Thing! Posted: 06 Oct 2010 07:42 AM PDT Sexy actor Boris Kodjoe is tired of you lusting after his face and body and not appreciating him for the acting skills he has. *eyebrow raised* In a recent interview, he says exactly how he feels about being treated like a pretty piece of meat. Oh the drama when you go inside.... <!--break-->
Taking a break from promoting his new show "Undercovers" airing on NBC, Mr. Kodjoe told AOL's Blackvoices that it is time people start talking more about his acting skills and less about his pecs. He says this, even though he is shirtless at least every 20 mins on his hour long show....not that we mind.
But Boris hopes his new role as Steven Bloom, a former spy who comes out of retirement to solve a case, will be the role to show fans how far he can stretch as an actor. He does all of his own stunts, and tries to play up the elements of action, comedy, drama and romance written into the scripts.
Many critics have focused on the novelty of the show's two leading characters being a black couple, yet Boris says it was colorblind casting on part of creator J.J. Abrams, "...it just happened to work out that way."
And if you didn't know, Boris is also into the fashion game promoting his custom-made, yet reasonably priced clothing line, Alfa. And, of course he's very into being a father and husband to Nicole Kodjoe and their kids. "My wife and my kids are the most important thing for me in life. As long as I'm true to my family that is where my happiness and joy lies in life. Everything else will fall into place automatically," he said. Some flicks from the latest episode of his show for the road:
Oh Boris. Alright then y'all. Keep your eyes about his neckline and get into the Denzel-esque flavor he believes he's giving us. Nothing to see here...nothing to see.  |
| Trey Songz & Drake Celebrate Their Brand New Kodak Gig Posted: 06 Oct 2010 06:20 AM PDT Friends Trey Songz and Drake celebrated their brand new business deal with Kodak with an exclusive performance at the Best Buy theater in NYC last night.
Pics of the fellas and their celeb friends who came out to support when you read on... <!--break--> Trey hit the stage. And brought his fab momma April along on the red carpet. He def has the Kodak smile part down to a tee. Drizzy hit the carpet with a cam.
Emcee DJ Enuff surprised the crowd by announcing Rihanna as the fourth artist to join Drake, Trey Songz and Pitbull on the SO KODAK campaign roster. All 4 will be featured in online and tv campaigns celebrating Kodak’s new EasyShare digital cameras which feature their exclusive Share Button. In other words, they're about to get PAID.
Trey's manager Kevin Liles was there of course. He kicked it with Gayle King. And Kevin's new wife Erika was there as well. Shontelle is really trying hard these days isn't she? Rocsi rocked a cute look. I'm feelin' it. DJ Khaled still says he's the best. There's a lot going on here Chrisette. Those lashes.... Busta Buss came through. Um, what are you doing Keri Hilson? People kill me using the red carpet like a photoshoot. Always hilarious to me.

| EVENING CANDIDS: Rihanna And Matt Kemp Get Floral In London Posted: 05 Oct 2010 05:49 PM PDT Rihanna was spotted in London looking cozy with her pro-baseballer boyfriend Matt Kemp. See the candids of them strolling through Londontown inside... <!--break--> RiRi is getting ready to release the 2nd single from her new album, and it may feature Drake. So how else do you celebrate then having your sweetie come across the pond for a visit. And rocking an uber cute floral mini skirt and jacket combo while you're at it... By the way, re:Drake, Matt says he's far from jealous. Her last few outfits have been some doozies. But we're feelin' this one. Photos via SplashNewsOnline  |
| CHEETAH FACE-OFF: Rocsi VS. Jeanette Jenkins Posted: 05 Oct 2010 04:22 PM PDT
BET's Rocsi Diaz and Queen Latifah's "lady friend" Jeanette Jenkins rocked the exact same dress the exact same weekend. Decide who ran it best when you read on... <!--break--> Rocsi wore this hot and fitted cheetah print dress by Torn (and designed by Robbie Kobo) to the Belvedere Vodka Party at the Gold Room in Atlanta Friday night. She paired her dress with a pop of color--purple suede ankle strapped pumps. A black and silver studded clutch, minimal jewelry and long tresses completed her look. And celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins rocked the dress just one day after Rocsi at the 2010 BET Hip Hop Awards. She paired her curve hugging Torn dress with silvery white Casadei stilleto pumps and a black and silver studded clutch that also looked like exactly like Rocsi's. So... WHO RAN IT?! |
| VIDEO: Gabby Union Strips Down To Her Skivvies Posted: 05 Oct 2010 11:34 AM PDT Gabrielle Union is the newest celeb with a Funny or Die comedy sketch. Check out her video where she has to drop her clothes for a lingerie shoot. But it def doesn't go as they all planned... <!--break--> *Dead* at "Double butt".  |
| Tina Knowles....Is Something Different About Your FACE?! Posted: 05 Oct 2010 10:29 AM PDT
Tina Knowles released her new fashion line with Wal-Mart recently, but that's not the only thing that seems brand new. Find out more when you read on... <!--break--> Beyonce's momma Tina Knowles just showcased her new clothing line 'Miss Tina', which will appear in Wal-Mart stores. Tina showed off different looks from her line and on herself as well.
Ms. Knowles definitely lost weight. Looks like she had some Botox or plastic surgery too. Maybe the divorced Ms. Knowles is on the prowl. It looks good though.  |
| Lawyer Wants Dwyane Wade's Ex-Wife Sent To Psychiatrist?! Posted: 05 Oct 2010 10:00 AM PDT
While Dwyane Wade was kicking it in Miami with his new boo Gabrielle Union, the lawyer appointed to his kids has asked the courts to force ex-wife, Siohvaughn Wade, to get a psychiatric evaluation. Find out the deets when you go inside... <!--break--> In documents filed in Chicago, Lester L. Barclay, the attorney representing Wade's children in his custody battle with Siohvaughn, says "there is a question as to the mental condition and violent tendencies" of Siohvaughn Wade. TMZ reports that Lester claims Siohvaughn's testimony revealed a history of extreme violence and he believes she has "homicidal" and "suicidal" tendencies. SMH. So Lester has asked to courts to place the Wade's two children with Dwyane and force Siohvaughn to undergo a psychiatric evaluation with a court-approved psychiatrist while their custody battle continues. Wow...that's pretty intense. Of course we want the best for the children. But if this -ish does go down, think about how Siohvaughn is going to pop-off knowing Gabrielle Union is tucking her babies in at night...  |
