WEEKEND LOVE: Beyonce & Jay-Z LUNCH IT UP In NYC

Posted: 21 Oct 2012 09:24 AM PDT

It was a lazy weekend for The Carters.  And they spent their downtime chillin' in Battery Park, close to their Tribeca home, with Mama Tina.  Check out pics from their dinner date inside...

Beyonce & Jay-Z were spotted sitting outside catching a sunset dinner at Giorgio Ristorante along the Hudson on Saturday.  And they brought MaMa Tina along, sans baby Blue:

The trio hit up the wine & Italian eats while taking in the Statue of Liberty views.  And they were spotted leaving out headed home:

Bey kept it cute & casual rocking her hair in a bun and her Isabel Marant sneakers with leathery pants & a cute sweater:

And even laughed it up with one of her bodyguards.  Mrs. BKC is gearing up to take over the Super Bowl halftime show in February.  Can't wait!

Also, House of Dereon released a few new sexy Winter 2013 ads for their newest campaign:

HOD has definitely stepped their game up.

BONUS: T.I. remixed Bey's "Dance For You" track and it hit the net this weekend.  Check it below in case you missed it:

STILL FLY: Happy 29th BIRTHDAY Amber Rose!

Posted: 21 Oct 2012 07:22 AM PDT

Mother-to-be Amber Rose turns 29-years-old today. Celebrate inside.....

Amber Rose has come a long way from just being the bald-headed chick on Kanye West's arm (and she coincidentally shares a birthday with 'Ye's new chick Kim K.).  She's grown her hair out a little, come from behind the sunglasses and become a model for Louis Vuitton, FORD Models & a spokeswoman for Smirnoff.  Not bad for a chick who started out hitting the pole in Philly.

Now she's expecting a baby with fiance Wiz Khalifa and seems to have taken full control of her life.  And we can already imagine her being the cool mom with the semi-bald head at the playground.

Celebrate some of Amber's looks in the gallery......

Baby Bottles Up for Amber Rose....Happy 29th Birthday!

Rihanna & Chris Brown GET KISSY At His "Qubeey" EVENT

Posted: 21 Oct 2012 06:13 AM PDT

Rihanna and Chris Brown were spotted together at his Qubeey event last night in LA.  See the pair looking very much BACK ON as a couple inside.....

Last night, Chris Brown hosted a launch party for his "Qubeey" site at Playhouse in LA.  His Qubeey Channel is a customized site that offers Team Breezy more access to Chris’ photos and videos. 

So now that Chris has put it out there that he's broken up with Karrueche to explore a relationship with Rih Rih, the "Diamond" chick put on a flirty white dress to publicly support her boo.  And she and Breezy were spotted kissing and hugged up in VIP last night.

Rihanna skipped the red carpet arrivals, but was by his side most of the evening as the couple relaxed with a group of friends in the space.

On Friday, Rihanna tweeted, "If you start feeling like a 'chore' to someone, you probably are!"  Hmm....we wonder if that was about a certain someone's ex-girlfriend?

 

Peep video of the couple relaxing together here:

Evelyn Lozada & Shaunie O'Neal PITCH IN For Habitat For Humanity + Rihanna Spotted At RECORDING STUDIO

Posted: 20 Oct 2012 11:21 AM PDT

 

Newly dark-haired "Basketball Wives" stars Evelyn Lozada and Shaunie O'Neal attended a Habitat For Humanity Gala in LA last night.  See the pics inside and candids of Rihanna hitting that studio once again...

 Last night, the Faithful Central Bible Church and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles threw a benefit concert honoring Dr. Kenneth C. Ulmer at Hyatt Century Plaza Hotel in Century City, California. Reality stars Evelyn Lozada and Shaunie O'Neal were among the attendees who watched Gladys Knight and Maze perform.  The two tweeted about having some much needed catch-up time.  Likely to see what all Shaunie will be able to use on "BBW" of Ev' latest relationship hoopla.

 

Evelyn's gone to the dark side with her hair now.  She tweeted, "I thought blonds have more fun?!hmmm I'm a brunette now, lets see how this works."

Although Shaunie didn't attend "the wedding" of Ev & Ocho, she and Ms. Lozada have remained friends through the drama it seems.  We guess it's safe to assume Evelyn will be returning to "BBW" next season.

They both posed with some fab women including John Salley's wife Natasha.

The pair also caught up with Mary Mary's Erica Atkins- Campbell.

Then they chatted with with their friend Edward who tweeted, Beauty at its FINEST!!! @ShaunieONeal @evelynlozada

"Hollywood Exes" star Sheree Fletcher was also at the event looking pretty....but not this outfit.

 

And in music news....

With her song "Diamonds" already a worldwide smash, Evelyn's good friend Riihanna was spotted shielding her eyes under her diamonds as she walking to the studio yesterday.  

Rihanna was spotted walking into a recording studio in LA yesterday where she likely is still working on tracks for the upcoming release of her "Unapologetic" disc.  

The VOUGE covergirl dressed in layers and her short shorts and sneakers.

Who's copping the new album?

BRAG ON THIS: Angela Simmons, June Ambrose, Vivica Fox & More GET GLAM For BRAG's 42nd Annual Gala

Posted: 20 Oct 2012 10:01 AM PDT

It was a night of fabulousness in New York City as celebs flocked to the 42nd annual BRAG (Black Action Retail Group) gala.  And like for any big fashion event, our fave YBF chicks rocked a few gorgeous looks of their own for the occasion.

 

Check out Vivica Fox, Angela Simmons, June Ambrose, Supermodel Beverly Johnson, and plenty more inside...

The ladies brought the glam at last night's BRAG gala at Pier 60 in Manhattan.  Vivica Fox, in a forest green embellished J.Mendel gown and a black fur bolero, hit the carpet with Tamron Hall, Beverly Johnson and author Deborah Gregory for the non profit organization's important night.

BRAG is dedicated to the inclusion of African Americans and all people of color in retail and related industries, and it's also the leading provider of resources and development support that empowers people of color to reach their highest professional potential in retail and related industries.

So last night's awards & dinner gala celebrated BRAG's efforts with stylists, actresses, models, and fashion gals.

"Today Show" host and MSNBC host Tamron Hall looked stunning in her Jason Wu creation--a white peplum strapless dress, embellished with feather spurts.

Stylist June Ambrose made a pretty appearance in Moschino on her arrival with her husband, Marc Chamblin.  She accepted the the JJ Thomas Business Innovators Award.

And our fave fashion chick kept her look fresh with Lulu Frost earrings as she posed it up with fellow honoree Fern Mallis.

And she was spotted with ESSENCE EIC Constance White.

Angela Simmons worked a teal leather zipped pencil skirt from Super Trash at the event. 

And we're loving it with these two-toned gold & black Louis Vuitton wedges.

Supermodel Beverly Johnson was there in a sparkly black Sherri Hill jumpsuit.  She was also on hand to receive an award:

Ok Ms. Johnson.  In your good wig and showing all kinds of cleavage with your boo by your side.  Not mad.

 

BRAG President Gail Monroe Perry, JJ Thomas himself & Tamron Hall were on hand to present awards:

Fern, who is the Executive Director of the CFDA, rocked a pretty look from Tracy Reese.

The honorees posed it up with Thomas Belk, Jr. and Susan Akkad (far right), who serves as the Senior VP of Estee Lauder and is responsible for bring YBF faces to adverts for the brand.

Hey DJ KISS!

Fab fashion times for a great cause.
