PICTURE PERFECT: Celeb Kids

Image
While "researching" for my last post I noticed an abundance of celebrities posting photos of their kids. No, not just Tyga and Chris Brown or  Beyonce and Kim Kardashian 's little beauties. I'm talking celeb babies all over the place...cute as hell!! Bring it, North and Penelope!!! How adorable? More?!!! Monica Brown's kids

I WANNA BE DOWN: Brandy Shares Her Make-Up Routine

Image
Well she did, but technically she didn't. What I got from these two videos is what I also knew and believed...Brandy doesn't age and her skin is dayum near flawless. Getting my makeup done now dahlings! @rennyvasquez and me ...hehe... #lotion A video posted by The Next Brandy (@4everbrandy) on May 28, 2015 at 9:14am PDT #makeupupdate @rennyvasquez A video posted by The Next Brandy (@4everbrandy) on May 28, 2015 at 9:42am PDT Although this was partially pointless, its nice to see women in Hollywood who still wear natural make-up/looks. I simply hate the shake and bake look celebs like Kylie Jenner and  Lilly Ghalichi are now rocking. They look like those doll babies with the eyes that open and shut with lashes courtesy of make-up artists like Ariel Tejada . Nothing against Ariel's work (a successful 19-year-old), he does have these ladies casket sharp in the face, but I prefer Renny Vasquez 's work. I mean, look at B

Bruce Jenner Finally Crosses Over

Image
Radar Online is reporting that Kris Jenner told them exclusively that Bruce Jenner is in fact a woman now. The once Olympic star has had "full gender reassignment surgery". What does this all mean? Bruce is now legally a WOMAN. Jenner, 65, underwent the grueling surgery “over three weeks ago,” an insider told Radar. “The procedure involved reshaping Bruce’s  male genitalia into that of a woman . He was very happy with the results, but didn’t realize how grueling the recovery would be.” The surgery was more than eight hours long,” the source said. “In the immediate aftermath, Bruce thought he had a urinary tract infection, but it was simply the pain from the procedure.” Now ain't that some shit. I'm not judging Bruce's wishes to become a woman but why so publicly? I know his fam seems to "act" as if they're okay with this but it seems a tad bit embarrassing and way too personal if you ask me. In other women's new. Kris Jenner is tradem

As a result, they are taking a little break in their relationship. "They haven't broken up yet," the source explained. "But things are not looking good."

Tuesday night after the Golden State Warriors' big win NBA baller Stephen Curry had the luxury of his beautiful daughter Riley accompanying him to his post game press conference.

The video's purpose is to inspire folks to work out regularly as a part of Mrs. Obama's #GimmeFive challenge which celebrates 5 years of the fight to end obesity.

Ciara Speaks Out On Low Album Sales

Image
In case you didn't know (many didn't) Ciara released an album last week named after her mother, Jackie. Although Ciara has been receiving a lot of press lately for her personal life I for one didn't see much of her promoting the album. I didn't buy the album (I am now) but I was rooting for CiCi on this one. I saw ONE interview on Dish Nation where she talked about the album and how she felt it was her best body of work as she did again at Power 99s's Rise and Grind Morning Show recently where she spoke about her low album sales for Jackie 's debut week. “Of course, you would hope for more. But at the same time, you know what I know about this album? This album is amazing. I’m so proud of  it . I put my all into it. I really do believe it’s my best body of work. To me, it’s never been about the first week.” “I’m going on 13 years now in my career, just to say that alone, to know that I still have my fans come to my shows and they’re sold out and a

You WILL Subscribe To Tidal!!

Tidal, Tidal, Tidal. It looks like Jay Z 's new streaming service Tidal just may be worth your cherished coins if you want to watch your favorite artist's new video. Over the weekend Jay streamed a "B-Sides" concert that was streamed live on Tidal. Yesterday Jay's superstar wife Beyonce and female MC Nicki Minaj dropped their new video for their track " Feeling Myself " on the subscriber paid site. Good luck finding the video on the web if you're not a Tidal customer. But lucky for you if you're like me the stills are available and super gorg. Hott, right? Well I hope you know what this means from now on out. Most of your fav artists' videos will probably begin to be only available via Tidal. Let the bandwagoning begin... When Jay and Bey post a video from their wedding or Bey giving birth to Blue Ivy on Tidal THEN I will subscribe. Until then, I applaud Jay's efforts and tactics. He's a straight up busi

VIDEO: Rihanna For Dior

Image
Today, the house of Dior unveils the fourth installment in the  Secret Garden  saga. Directed by Steven Klein, the film features the singer Rihanna in the gardens and palace of Versailles.  The booty shot is REALNESS. A presence looms in a nighttime Versailles. Captured by Steven Klein’s camera, Rihanna passes through the sumptuous salons and the Hall of Mirrors to the rhythm of the track “ Only If   For a Night” ,  produced by Midas, and which will be the opener to her upcoming album. Enigmatic and enchanting, the singer heads to the palace gardens, where their box hedges, clipped to spell the House’s emblematic initials, convey a fairytale air. As the only light, the glow of candles and moonbeams highlight the details of the Esprit Dior Tokyo collection: the metallic closure and cannage of the  Diorama  bag, the silvered spangles of a dress, the finely-crafted metal of the  Tribale  earrings, the sequins sprinkling a nose veil.    The plenitude of Rihanna's opulenc

Is August Alsina Going Blind?

Image
According to the rapper himself via Instagram he already is in one eye while the other is attempting to do the same...but that's about to change. So I have this eye disease.. Blind in my left, and losing vision in my right. In order to prevent my eyesight from deteriorating ihad to do this surgery. This shit is beyond painful & Life be throwin' a nigxa curve balls but what I've gained from it all is priceless... A lot of things that are so natural to us in life (like waking up and being able to see 👀) we can take it for granted. Thank God the OG for allowing me to see.. The good the bad the ugly, I'm just glad to see👀 A photo posted by Yungin' (@augustalsina) on May 15, 2015 at 7:38pm PDT If this wasn't something anyone needed to read today I'd like to have your life in a bottle. What August Alsina is stating is so true about the things we take for granted. While most of us worry about materialistic things or better yet

VIDEO: Denzel Washington Delivers Inspiring Commencement Speech

Image
This is what I like to call graduation season. Typically around Mother's Day weekend we begin to see an influx of students and families celebrating the accomplishments of graduating college and/or high school students. Along with this time of the season we tend to see celebrities, and the First Lady , delivering commencement speeches at colleges as well as obtaining their very own honorary degrees. For instance, rapper/actor Common received his honorary degree and delivered the commencement speech at Winston-Salem State University in North Carolina this past weekend. Congrats to the 2015 graduates of #WSSU #Progress Thanx for the Honorary Doctorate!  Dr. Lynn has a nice sound to it.  #ImGeeked #WonderfulDay #HBCU A video posted by Common (@common) on May 15, 2015 at 12:49pm PDT Also over the weekend, actor Denzel Washington delivered a heartfelt commencement speech to the graduating class of 2015 at historically black college Dillard University.

KimYe Planning To Renew Their Vows?

Image
According to one of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West 's most trusted friends who spilled the beans to Us Weekly the couple, who wed May 24, 2014, will renew their vows on their one year anniversary in Paris. Annnnnnnnnd, it's all Kanye's idea...go figure! The insider notes that the "Only One" rapper is renting out the Eiffel Tower for the special festivities. The lavish 58 Tour Eiffel restaurant has also been booked for a private event. The ceremony will take place following the pair's appearance at the Cannes Film Festival. Oh, please!! This sounds like something a video camera will be present for. These people will do anything, stupid and/or simply lie, just to stay relevant. Remember Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey use to renew their vows every year but you see where they are now...

Rihanna Lands The Cover Of Vogue’s Special Edition Issue for the 2015 Met Gala

Image
While everyone on social media platforms were making memes of Rihanna 's 2015 Met Gala look the good and fashionable people over at Vogue were applauding the pop star's bold choice. Although I wasn't a fan of this caped look, which featured a pink mini dress underneath, the fact that it took designer Guo Pei two years to create and typically only the Chinese emperor dons this colour makes the look phenomenal in it's own right. But most importantly Rihanna LOVED the ensemble just as much as Vogue did. “I’m so in love with this dress, but the train is insane! I can’t really walk in it without any help—but it’s so worth it. I love this dress so much! It’s Chinese couture and it’s made by Guo Pei.” “It’s handmade by one Chinese woman and it took her two years to make. I found it online.I was researching Chinese couture on the Internet and I found it.” Source Congrat's to Rihanna for making the special edition cover...AGAIN.
