Happy Halloween!!! Enjoy your day loves...be safe out there tonight!

REWIND: Toni Braxton's Full Behind The Music Episode

Image
In case you missed Monday's premiere of R&B diva Toni Braxton's VH1 Behind The Music episode or just don't feel like playing hide and seek with the 5 million re-airs the full episode can be seen below. Here's my few thangs : I didn't know Toni filed bankruptcy for the second time due to her illness during the time she contractually obligated to her Las Vegas shows which in turn she was left with the costs when she was no longer able to perform. I gathered from Toni's episode that she was handed hardship after hardship that ultimately diminished her grander years of her career but she never gave up which is why she is still around today. But here's my beef: Why would Toni come for the Big O like that? What did she expect Oprah to do when she came on the show during the peak of her bankruptcy? Not ask about it? Give her a car? What? Oprah doesn't play when it comes to finances and doing right by your money. Toni should have known better!

VIDEO: Halle Berry Stops By Chelsea Lately

SPOTTED: Halle Berry & Her Daughter At The Pumpkin Patch + Other Celebs

Image
Like many celebs around this time in LA Halle Berry was spotted with her daughter Nahla, who is now sporting long red curls, at the Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch in Los Angeles yesterday partaking in some fun and taking pics. Halle and her garbs give me so life. Her clothes are so obviously her personal style and nothing contrived and copied left half of Hollywood and the ordinary people who copy celebs. Anywho, it looks like the girls had ball even if they left without a pumpkin...or maybe the nanny that is off to the side is carrying. After the BREAK check out more celebs at the pumpkin patch with their kiddos.

The Breakfast Club On Air During Hurricane Sandy?

Image
How cool is it that Power 105's The Breakfast Club went on air in the wee hours of this morning while much of NYC was underwater without electricity during Hurricane Sandy to give their fans a dose of urban news and entertainment while the storm passed. Man fuck it Turn @ power1051 on right now @ djenvy and I bout to go live. — Charlamagne Tha God (@cthagod) October 30, 2012 We going live @ angelayee get here when you can @ djenvy and I are live from @ power1051 we got power here of course we do!!!! — Charlamagne Tha God (@cthagod) October 30, 2012 Yes @ djenvy and I are here @ breakfastclubam @ power1051 live tune in!!!!

Kevin Hart and Jamie Foxx were spotting leaving the Pink Taco in Hollywood last night.   Check out more pics after the BREAK as well as deets on a Eddie Murphy tribute going down this weekend.

SPOTTED: Rihanna & Chris Brown's Mother Dine Together

Image
Rihanna and Chris Brown's mother, Joyce Hawkins , had a low key dinner at the Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills over the weekend leaving many to believe Rihanna is Mama Joyce's choice for her son. I still find this eerily odd that this boy goes back and forth with these two women (Rih and Karrueche ) while seemingly both girls seem okay when they are the choice of the night. Then for his mother to appear out in public with Rihanna speaks volumes. But to a person like me this all seems too calculated. Could they not have done this at a more high profile place? No matter how dressed down Rihanna seems this was still a very public outing one that seemed like it was needed to be seen as anther jab to Karrueche for Rihanna and an ahaaa to all of Chris' naysayers for the last few years. I'm just saying, it may be cute to some or even nice that his mother and chick seem to get along but this speaks more volumes than ONE. Oh yeah don't forget to pick up Rihanna's

The show will be produced by Queen Latifah's Flavor Unit as well as Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith's Overbrook Entertainment. This is Queen Latifah's second daytime show her first which aired back in 1999 which bared the same name. Are you looking forward to the Queen taking over daytime television?

Is This How You Wear A Speedo On Your Birthday?

Image
Last week Wyclef Jean showed off his self admiration on his 43rd birthday by posting a pic of himself in a red Speedo sitting on a Ducati bike to his Twitter page. Well this week it's country singer/American Idol newbie judge Keith Urban's turn. Keith opted for black Speedos sans the Ducati on his 45th birthday while vacationing in France. Who wore it better?

REVEALED: Terrence Jenkins & Giuliana Rancic's Debut Promo Photo

Image
A sneak peek photo of the new co-hosts of E! News Terrence J(enkins) and Giuliana Rancic was released yesterday and I must say these two make for an easy on the eyes duo. Giuliana is the veteran reporter of the show but this is Terrence's debut on the network having just departed from BET's 106 & Park countdown show. Will you tune in to Terrence and Giuliana daily beginning November 12? I will definitely be tuned in, I am so happy for Terrence and all his success including just signing on to a new film last week, Baggage Claim , that will also feature Taraji P. Henson , Octavia Spencer , Derek Luke and Terrence's good friend La La Anthony . And speaking of Terrence's good friend, his former co-host Rocsi Diaz just landed a gig over at Entertainment Tonight which is no small feat itself. Congrats to Terrence and Rocsi on all their present and future successes!

Song of the Day!!

Image
As it looks like the brunt of Hurricane Sandy is gone there is still so much to be done/repaired yet so much to be thankful for. This wasn't quite the "thank you" song you nor I were probably thinking of but dayum if it isn't a jammer for this type of morning. Enjoy your day loves!!

Happy Birthday Tracee Ellis Ross!

SPOTTED: Eddie Murphy And His Lady Friend Grabbing More Coffee

Image
This is getting to be hilarious and too coincidental. Eddie Murphy not only loves and leaves them quicker than shit after eating McDonalds but he also does the same thing with all his women while courting them...go out for coffee. Whomever this chick is it looks like she's only been on one actual date thus far and will only be fed coffee the next couple of months until she is dumped. Eddie is a serial dater with a coffee habit...it doesn't get anymore complicated.

Nicki Minaj Lands An E! Trilogy Special

Image
So word on the street and the fingertips of Nicki Minaj this weekend is that E!, the headquarters of fab reality shows, has given Nicki her own reality show starting November 4 on the network set to premiere just days before her November 19 album/DVD releases of Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded-The Re-Up. We watched the REUP DVD and the 1st episode of the E! series....u guys are going to go crazzzzyyyyy when you see it! NOV19TH DVD, NOV4TH E! — Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) October 28, 2012 This has been speculated to be happening for a while now. We  reported  this back in September per Perez Hilton yet E! seems to be reporting things differently stating that Nicki has "an all new E! special, Nicki Minaj: My Truth , is set to air on Nov 4". That doesn't sound like a series with multiple weekly shows. A special to me is about an hour or longer and one tapping but Nicki cleary said "1st episode" in her tweet leaving me to believe it's a show. Soooo then

Halloween Fashion Pause: Kris Jenner As Psy

Image
Kris Jenner dapper in all black sat in on Friday's Halloween episode of E! 's Fashion Police . During the show Kris wore a black fitted dress tailored to perfection while dishing with Joan Rivers , Kelly Osbourne and George Kotsiopoulos on some of Hollywood's fashion hits and misfits with none of Kris' girls mentioned. But it was the last segment of the show where Kris changed into her costume as the Gangnam Style dancing machine Psy  along with Joan as Mariah Carey accessorized by dem babies , Kelly as Katy Perry, George as Brad Pitt and Joan's daughter Melissa as Nicki Minaj  to discuss the best and worse dressed stars of the week that had me more than impressed. How fab does Kris look? Actually every one's costumes look great and what a great play on Nicki and Mariah's American Idol feud than for Joan and Melissa to dress as the two with the gloves ON! Check out some footage of the episode below. Who's costume did you like best?

Spotted: Rick Rubin And A Lady Friend

Image
Co-founder of Def Jam Records and famed producer Rick Rubin was spotted doing a little produce shopping with a bronzed friend in Malibu over the weekend. I see Rick and Russell Simmons have a lot in common when it comes to their lady friends...

SPOTTED: Drew Barrymore Post Baby Along With Jen Aniston + Other A Listers

Image

In attendance were Jennifer Aniston , Cameron Diaz , Salma Hayek, Kerry Washington  and Drew Barrymore among many more. A glowing Barrymore and her husband were spotted showing off pictures of her their new bundle of joy to Jen Aniston and Justin Theroux via camera phone. Check out more clebs after the BREAK.

Song of the Day!!

While myself and much of the East Coast is anticipating the arrival and departure of Hurricane Sandy Barry Manilow's Mandy has been playing in my head with the abundance of media coverage these last couple of days. Yeah I'm a Manilow fan! Stay dry and enjoy your day loves!

Beyonce: "Countdown To Touchdown"

Image
Beyonce posted this pic to her Tumblr which looks to be promoting her half time performance at Super Bowl XLVII on February 3, 2013. Go Bey!! And not too far from her billboard is Jay Z's billboard for NBA2K13! Some folks are even speculating that Touchdown is an actual project/song...we shall see y'all know I love a good conspiracy . And it looks like I missed some Blue Ivy drama. It looks like Jay and Bey's attempt to trademark Blue's name has not been denied yet put on hold but that doesn't mean any ole creep off the street can start using the name either for socks, candles and other bullshit their hearts desire. Don't even try it!

RIP Natina Reed

Image
One third of the 90s R&B group Blaque  Natina Reed passed away tragically on Friday (October 26) after being fatally injured in what was first reported as hit and run accident while crossing the street in Atlanta. New reports have since surfaced that Natina was in the street while struck and the driver of the vehicle did in fact call 911 and was cleared of any fault in the accident. Today Natina would have turned 33 years old. Natina leaves behind a 10 year old son father with rapper Kurupt. Some of you may also remember Natina from the movie Bring It On pictured below on the right. RIP.

Fashion Pause: The Halloween Edition

Image
With Halloween nearing the influx of celebs attention whoring in their best Halloween garbs will increase like a plague and I'll be right here posting some of my fav looks. Kim Kardashian's mermaid look is by far one of my favs...for some reason I'm not buying Kanye as the Captain Kim claimed him to be on her Instragram account. Kanye is dead ass serious with this look...you can't tell me otherwise unless it came from Kanye's mouth...and he doesn't do press! I don't really know what La La Anthony is supposed to be...an alley cat? La La along with Kimye hit up the Midori Green annual Halloween party on the same night. Before I get into Diddy's look I have to question why he's hanging out at the Playboy Mansion's Annual Halloween party with his two eldest sons? Anywho, Diddy as Purple Rain Prince is hilarious. You can't hide Justin, your dad already posted pics of you on Instagram!

Recasting Time! Basketball Wives LA Making Some Changes

Image
Thank you, Lawd! According TMZ , some super snitch over at Basketball Wives LA is announcing the departure of FOUR cast members: Gloria Govan , Laura Govan , Malaysia Pargo and Brooke Bailey . "Basketball Wives: L.A. " axed four of its six cast members -- and TMZ has learned the catalyst was when Gloria Govan shut producers out of her nuptials to L.A. Lakers star Matt Barnes . Sources connected to the show tell TMZ the producers are getting rid of Gloria, Laura Govan , Malaysia Pargo and Brooke Bailey because the wives, especially Gloria, weren't allowing "all of their reality to be filmed." We're told the breaking point came when Gloria (who is known for her feisty ways) jetted off to Vegas to marry Barnes -- and didn't even let the show know about it. Our sources say the producers felt extremely disrespected by her actions and made the decision to clean house. Our sources tell us the producers haven't told the wives they'

VIDEO: The Houston Family On "The View"

Image
The Houston family, minus Gary and Bobbi Kristina, appeared on The View this past Tuesday (October 23) to promote their new reality show, The Houstons: On Our Own premiering the next night on Lifetime and things got a semi hostile between Barbara Walters and Pat Houston when speaking about the show and it's timing as well as Bobbi Kristina. Take a looksee and let me know your take on this one. Sorry it's so late but I forgot to post this last week...stranger shit has happened. I think at one point during this inter view Pat pondered on slapping Barbara...at least once.

VIDEO: "The Houstons: On Our Own" Episodes 1 & 2

Image
This show was such a bad idea... Last night Lifetime premiered the first two episodes of The Houstons: On Our Own   showing the family just three months after the passing of Whitney Houston . I have to question Pat Houston's motives watching this show. At some points she seems wholeheartedly concerned about Bobbi Kristina and others she comes off as an enabler. The drinking was just horrible to film and deliver to the world THREE MONTHS after her mother passed. I seriously had to ask myself "why am I watching this?". Who in their right mind thought this was a good look?Bobbi Kris looked under In my opinion the influence in just about all the scenes on the first two episodes. Instead of wasting time orchestrating scenes for this show they should be seeking help for Bobbi Kris. At one point I wondered whether she was on some type of medication because she seemed so mellow and slowwwwwwwwwwwww . And why was Bobbi Kris' photo last on the intro? Yeah I'm p

SPOTTED: A Sparkling Halle Berry

Image
Boy do I miss the days of posting about Halle Berry almost daily yet the far and frequent posts make me appreciate her so much more. Halle was seen last night on the red carpet in Hollywood for her movie premiere, Cloud Atlas, with her fiance Oliver Martinez by her side. This woman can do no wrong fashionably in my opinion. This dress is beyond fittingly appropriate...kudos to her stylist! Cloud Atlas hits theatres tomorrow (October 26) and also stars Tom Hanks .

PICS: Rihanna Films "Diamonds" Video

Image
I can't wait to see this video, I really really like this song. With the album dropping next month (Nov 19) and the video being shot last week we can expect to see this video VERY soon! Let me say that I although I loved the pixie cut I knew it was only a matter of time before she went for a much more edgier look with her hair.
