Beyonce flicked it up for former Vogue Paris EIC Carine Rotitfeld 's most recent CR Fashion Book issue. In the mag Beyonce can be seen in designer duds featuring a Chanel surfboard as well as some photos that aren't so B eyonce'ish yet they all turned out beautiful.

CONGRATULATIONS ARE IN ORDER: Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Wed!!

Image
Over this past weekend when everyone was all caught up with the MTV Video Music Awards and the Emmys one of Hollywood's elite couples wed in a private ceremony at Chateau Miraval in France per a spokesperson for the couple to the Associated Press. Yep!! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wed before family and friends with their children all taking part in the wedding ceremony. Sons Maddox and Pax reportedly walked Angie down the aisle while the other 4 children served as flower girls and ring bearers. After 9 years and 6 kids Brangelina are now Mr. & Mrs. Pitt ...congrats!! I wonder if  the newlyweds will make the cover of People in their wedding attire? You know, donate the money for the first pics to some notable charity... Source

Is Claudia Jordan An Official Atlanta "Housewife"?

Image
If you let the social media accounts of the current Real Housewives of Atlanta tell it she seems to be. The social media accounts of the RHOA stars   are featuring gorgeous pictures from Puerto Rico where I guess they're filming their annual family vacation to kill one another. This time it appears husbands weren't invited (thanks Apollo) but seperately the ladies appear to be having a ball. It's  very obvious from some pics (and some tweets) that there is some division of some sort between the ladies. Take a look for yourselves. That's Demetria McKinney of Tyler Perry 's House of Payne   fame to the far right...y'all care? Anywho,I think Claudia Jordan would be a good mix on the show plus she allows Kenya Moore and Cynthia Bailey the opportunity not to look so pitiful AND have a filming partner outside themselves. Now the seniors are cliqued up minus Cynthia who was voted out by NeNe I'm sure. Never thought I'd see the day t

TWO FINGERS: Chelsea Handler Goes Out With A Celebrity Bang

Image
Last night Chelsea Handler bid farewell to her late night talk show of  7 years Chelsea Lately and the E! Network in grand style. The finale show included a slew of celebrities and I'm not talking weak celebs I mean celebrities were  in attendance. On hand were stars like Gwen Stefani , Bobby Brown , Jennifer Aniston , Tim Allen , Miley Cyrus , 50 Cent , and Sandra Bullock just to name a few who all sang farewell to Chelsea to the tune of We Are The World . I wasn't expecting so many hip hop acts to be there... heheheheeee .  Did Leah smirk at LeAnn's singing? The most comedic part of the night had to be Ellen DeGeneres confronting a naked Chelsea in the shower about never being invited to her show all while Chelsea claims she's a lesbian and didn't know Ellen was. I'll miss Chelsea and her borderline offensive ass and I can't wait until 2016 for her Netflix show. You know a deal is good when you quit your job for another job that does

Prince To Release Two New Albums In September

Image
Prince has decided to once again bless the world with new music but this time he's not doing just one album yet he will be releasing TWO albums this September. The first album, ART OFFICIAL AGE, is a classic Prince album featuring funky soulful new work by the musical icon, including single “Breakfast Can Wait”; the release will mark his 33rd studio album (and 37th overall). The other album, PLECTRUMELECTRUM, was made in collaboration with his new funk rock band, 3rdEyeGirl. Both albums will be released on September 30th.   The albums will both be released on Warner Bros. Records, which marks Prince’s return to the label who signed the artist way back in 1976 on the strength of a demo tape. The relationship lasted for 20 years, until 1996’s Chaos and Disorder. During his long feud with the label, he stopped using his name in favor of an unpronounceable symbol and rushed out mediocre albums to meet contractual obligations. Prince marked the end of his relationship with Warn

VIDEO: Karrueche Tran Publicly Mocks Blue Ivy's Hair

Image
While co-hosting/standing in/taking Keisha Chante 's place on BET's 106 & Park Chris Brown 's on-again/off-again girlfriend Karrueche Tran committed social suicide when she read a badly played out joke regarding Beyonce and Jay Z's daughter Blue Ivy. “I really did wake up like this, because my parents never comb my hair.” I would have never read that and  been known as the girl who lost her gig for standing up to BET instead of now becoming the newest victim of the Killer Beys  #BeyHive. I blame BET for dayum near setting her up but I blame her common sense for her part. Now y'all know I LOVE me some Beyoncé and Blue Ivy! I didn't write this script y'all lol — Karrueche Tran (@karrueche) August 25, 2014 How dumb. I am definitely team #BeyHive ❤️ — Karrueche Tran (@karrueche) August 25, 2014 You just got voted out, Hun.

FAUX BEEF: Iggy Azalea Gives Nicki Minaj Kudos On Her VMA Performance

Image
I guess Iggy Azalea tried to bury the constructed beef between she and fellow female rapper Nicki Minaj at last night's MTV Video Music Awards with a few encouraging words while the cameras were rolling.  The two bumped into one another backstage after Nicki's performance where Iggy gave her the thumbs up on her performance and cracked a joke about Nicki's wardrobe malfunction. Nicki smiled...

The Girl Who Stole The VMAs Show...

Image
Last night Beyonce accepted the prestige honor of being awarded the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards . Leading up to the acceptance of her award Beyonce performed a medley of all tracks from her most recent album Beyonce . But it was Beyonce and Jay Z 's daughter Blue Ivy who stole the evening. Not only waving to fans in the pit, dancing in the crowd but also saying " Good job, Mommy " as well as offering a round of applause for her mother. Shutting the rumors down...I guess. If only we could have kept the Taylor Swift dancing shots to a minimum...

The Most Exciting Thing About The VMAs...

Image
Seeing who's sitting where? Source Am I like the only one who loves to see the seating arrangements (like above) for a big show? 1. This let's us know who's going to show up...like really. 2. Let's you know who the network/awards show thinks are the real A-Listers . Yep, the best part for ME!! I wonder if Lil Wayne will spend the evening starring at Beyonce like Birdman did Jay Z at the 2012 BET Awards ? Not THAT I will watch for!! Be sure to tune into MTV this Sunday at 9 pm if the Video Music Awards are your cup of tea.

Anna Wintour Accepts ALS Challenge

Just when I thought I was sick of celebrities cashing in on free publicity with this ALS #IceBucketChallenge the ice queen herself Anna Wintour accepts supermodel Gisele Bundchen 's nomination. Hopefully most celebs/regs are like Anna and not only participate in the challenge but also donate to the ALS Association . Source

Mo'ne Davis Covers Sports Illustrated

Image
Who is Mo'ne Davis you maybe asking? Just a  13-year-old girl from Philly who pitches for the Taney Dragons making history. The nation first took notice after Davis used her 70 mph fastball to throw a shutout in the Mid-Atlantic Final that sent her team to the World Series. She followed that up by  becoming the first girl to throw a shutout  in World Series history , throwing a two-hitter and striking out eight in a 4-0 win over Nashville last Friday.  Dreams...dedication...faith...we can all do what we are destined to do!! You go, girl!!! Source

RESTOCKED: Kanye West's Maison Martin Margiela Tour Sneakers Up For Grabs...AGAIN.

Image
If there was one thing I could leave with from a Yeezus concert with my hard earned money it would not be any of Kanye West's infamous costumes...shoes included. During the Yeezus tour Kanye donned very interesting looks throughout his shows courtesy of  Maison Martin Margiela   including a pair of fuzzy ass sneakers that have already sold out and have been restocked as of today with a price tag of a measly $900 bucks . Are we feeling the Yeezus Tour Pony Sneaker? As if one of those masks wouldn't have been a better option.

Mariah Carey And Nick Cannon Splitting?

Image
According to Page Six they are... Mariah Carey  and comedian  Nick Cannon  are headed for a split and “living separately” after she hired security to keep him away from other women, sources exclusively told Page Six. Our sources tell us Carey and Cannon, the host of “America’s Got Talent,” are separating after six years of marriage. “He hasn’t been staying at their home,” one music insider tells Page Six. “He’s been living out of hotels. They’re fighting a lot.” Another source told us Carey has suspected Cannon of cheating. And when the comic hosted pool parties in Las Vegas earlier this year, the diva dispatched a security guard to keep watch over her husband. “The security guard wasn’t there to keep the girls away from him,” said our source. “It was to keep him away from the girls.” Carey also didn’t want Cannon drinking while at the Vegas gigs because she felt he “gets in trouble when he drinks,” the source added.

NEW VIDEO: Nicki Minaj "Anaconda"

I wish Nicki would stop teasing Drake 's thirsty ass...but I must admit it's entertaining to watch and Nicki's ass as well. I think I'm officially a Nicki Minaj fan...yasssssss!!

NEW SHOW ALERT: "Black-ish" Starring Tracee Ellis Ross And Anthony Anderson (VIDEO)

Image
Coming to ABC this fall courtesy of Anthony Anderson and Laurence Fishburne is a new sitcom badly titled Black-ish . After watching the preview of the show, featuring Tracee Ellis Ross  with a leading role as a mother and the wife of Anderson, I think show is just as trash as the title...BUT!! I will watch. Lawd, be a working a title!! I get it...but nah . Are they implying you lose your black card with success? Maybe it's the network that's also is the problem for me. And speaking of the network, ABC is also bringing us Fresh Off The Boat about an Asian family trying to capture the American Dream . Like , really? Are we simply trying to fill time slots for one season, ABC?

SHE SAID YES: Kevin Hart Pops The Question

Image
Are the producers of Atlanta Exes, which premiered last night, crying or high five'ing it right now? Either way Kevin popped the question last night during his girlfriend's birthday celebration, she said yes and for the rest of Torrei Hart's life she will never forget her ex-husband proposed to the woman who ruined their marriage on the day she began her reality show career...based on his infidelities and the demise of her marriage. Everybody wins...right? Congrats!!!

Selita Ebanks And Common Cover Uptown Mag

Image
What a seductive cover with a random pairing. In this month’s  cover story , writer Ericka Blount Danois caught up with  Common  who recently released his 10th album,  Nobody’s Smiling . The rapper-actor touched on his sex-symbol status (he’s not working at it), Serena Williams (he really loved her) stopping the violence in Chicago (he’s a soldier) and where he fits in music today (he feels like a new artist).   But before we jump into the world of Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr. , check out the making of this sizzling hot cover shot on location at  The EWOW Penthouse Suite at The W Times Square –  plus a special message from Common and Selita Ebanks.   I was wondering why the hell Selita was on the cover...they look great together tho. Mmmmm hmmmm ... Source

PDA: Queen Latifah Spotted With Girlfriend While Vacationing

Image
Shout out to Just Jared for the photos...obviously!! The Queen and her lady friend  Eboni Nichols   of a few years   are vacationing in   Porto Cervo, Sardinia. What I think I admire and respect most about Queen Latifah was that she publicly never came out about her sexual preference yet she walks around publicly without hiding nor appearing to be ashamed in any form. I've always felt someone's sexual preference shouldn't be news nor the tag line for any news about them arises. I dig that.

Image
Michelangelo Di Battista My fav of fav actresses Julia Roberts has the honor of being InStyle magazine's September 2014 cover girl where she is also serving as guest editor. Every year, choosing a star to grace  InStyle ’s September  task  but this year’s selection had a special significance: The issue officially celebrates the magazine’s 20th anniversary. As our  Snapchat followers learned  last night,  Julia Roberts  is  InStyle’ s September cover star, marking her sixth appearance on the magazine’s cover. “Over a year ago, I knew: There would be no one person that would better represent both the aspiration and accessibility of Hollywood glamour past, present, and future than Julia Roberts,” explains editor Ariel Foxman. “Once she said yes to guest editing along with me, we were able to start shooting our issue!”  Source

Tia Mowry-Hardrict Responds To Critics Of Her Son's Natural Hair

Image
You knowwwwwwwwwwww, there are some celebs that are built for that celebrity life and there are some that aren't. Tia Mowry Hardrict is one and she also can't handle social media nor criticism. Example: "I am proud to have a SON that embraces his natural hair :). Hair length does not define your sex. Last I checked a penis and a vagina does. Pick up a book, educate yourself, and embrace cultures outside of your own and maybe you will see that there are PLENTY of MEN wearing top knots and MEN with long hair. Here's a shout out to all the moms who have boys and girls with natural hair! 😘 Live ON!" Why was this necessary? The five minutes of her life that she can never get back that it took to write this IG dissertation should have been spent instilling confidence in her son. Who gives a ( WHAT) what people think? And if you do, keep your kid as well as yourself off of social media. Tia, if it makes you feel any better I love Cree's hair but yo
