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: Lilly Allen Performs Beyonce's "Drunk In Love"

Image
I don't know if performs is right image I'm trying to paint y'all right now but she Miss Allen tried it... While performing at G-A-Y nightclub in London this weekend  Lily Allen  took to the stage to mostly dance to " Drunk In Love " while donning an all black get up and wet blonde hair to which she was obviously channeling Beyonce. Is it safe to assume Lily was really drunk? Source

Kim Kardashian Channels Audrey Hepburn In New Photoshoot

Image
Who says Kim Kardashian is all work and no play? The reality star was in Miami yesterday on-call for a photoshoot for Hype Energy Drinks where she was caught trying to ride a bicycle. Kim in a brunette wig with bangs dressed in head-to-toe all black (her uniform) had to have been inspired by Audrey Hepburn who donned the same look on a bicycle in 1954 on the set of Sabrina . Kim didn't seem as natural as Hepburn on the bike and even took spill. I want to believe the fall was intended for the shoot and that Kanye will teach North how to ride a bike when the time comes. Am I the only one baffled an energy drink company would seek out Kim? Pics: Mark Shaw/Paramount/Fame Flynet 

Beyonce Wanted To Follow In Madonna's Footsteps...

Image
During a screening of her visual album in NYC,  Beyonce answered questions from fans via Instagram and spoke of aspiring to walk in the independent footsteps of pop icon Madonna. "I felt like I wanted follow in the footsteps of Madonna and be a powerhouse and have my own empire," she said to cheers from the crowd. " And (to) show other women when you get to this point in your career, you don't have to go sign with someone else and share your money and your success, you can do it yourself ." This sounds like a hustler move and we know Bey hasn't hustled a day in her life...illegally. All she is doing is cutting out the middle man who would just so happen to see more money than she would and she is the one pushing the talent. Why sell your work to  the tune of someone else's beat? Bey has surpassed the re-up stage IMO. Anywho, I know a lot of people seem to be astonished by Beyonce's new album and raunchy material but it's the message t...

In Late News...

Image
I had no clue Tyler Perry and The Big O were gracing the cover of Essence magazine's June issue.   "Where else in the history of our African-American culture have two really, really successful people who can do whatever they want said, 'Let's come together and be even more powerful – let's take it to the tenth power?"  - OW The above quote speaks volumes coming from Oprah as a friend and business partner of Tyler. It also speaks volumes to me as a person aspiring for their kind of success. Get it, with y'all high faluting asses!!!

Ciara clad in layers of all white was spotted in Las Vegas last night at Haze nightclub where she was scheduled to perform. Are we feeling this look? Is this an visual ode to First Sundays or Kanye West?  This is a straight hell NAY!
