I know I'm not the only one who has heard people say: "the more you hang around a person the more you begin to look a like"... It looks like Pharrell spends every minute with his wife  Helen Lasichanh ....

VIDEO: Pharrell Judging Taylor Swift At The Grammys

Image
Although I've just jumped on the Taylor Swift bandwagon thanks too " Shake It Off"  the chick has been nothing but a pest in the past to me. I use to think it was cute how she would sing along and support her counterparts during awards shows and what not.  Then it got annoying. I started to wish she'd sit her ass down. The news the next day was almost always about how she was dancing along to someone else's music...so!! Well last night at the 2015 Grammy Awards I think Grammy winner Pharrell Williams was over the Taylor Show and you can see it ALL in his face. Pharrell, thank you, Man!!! Maybe she will sit her ass down from now on. Y'all think Taylor woke up like " f**k him !!" this morning or put on " Happy " and shook it off?

Who Is Teyana Taylor?

Image
Teyana Taylor sat down recently for a short yet in depth interview with Madame Noire where she answered a lot of questions that have been plaguing our minds for a well now... who is she and what does she do? Teyana also charted into the territory of  her debut studio  album VII as well as Kanye West vouching for the album, the real deal with her MTV Sweet 16 party, touring with August Alsina and why she opted not to do the Aaliyah biopic film for Lifetime. I must say this interview answered many of the questions that I had, For the life of me I sincerely didn't know just what Teyana did, I knew about the " Google Me " single which seemed very promising by the way coming off the Sweet 16 fame, but I didn't understand why Teyana was famous with little to no work to show for it. Hopefully VII (which debuted at No. 1 on  Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums   Billboard Charts it's first week )  grants Teyana the privilege of moving on from her past wh...

Pharrell Teams Up With Karl Lagerfeld For Chanel Film

Image
Karl Lagerfeld , who I deem fashion royalty, has teamed up with music's savior of the moment  Pharrell Williams for a Chanel film. WWD has learned that Karl Lagerfeld directed the musician in his latest movie, to be screened in tandem with the Paris-Salzburg pre-fall collection the designer plans to parade on Dec. 2. Filming took place in a Paris studio last week, with Cara Delevingne and six-year-old Hudson Kroenig among Williams’ costars and dance partners, Lagerfeld said. Chanel’s next Métiers d’art collection is to be unveiled at the Schloss Leopoldskron, an 18th-century Rococo palace that is considered one of the finest in Austria. Source 

NEW VIDEO: Weird Al Yankovic "Tacky (Happy Parody)"

Image
Weird Al Yankovic has a new album coming out soon Mandatory Fun which typically means new music and new issues for the parody singer but that wasn't the case this time around. As told to Billboard.com  "I was very lucky --  this is my first album in a long time that didn't have any actual drama," Yankovic, who's had low-key tussles with the likes of James Blunt and Eminem in the recent past, tells Billboard. "It seems like my last few albums have always had some problems around the release, and this is the first time where I've gotten everybody that I wanted, and I couldn't be happier about it ." My manager was having a time tough getting a hold of Pharrell through his representatives," Yankovic recalls. "In the meanwhile, I somehow -- and I'm not at liberty to say how -- got Pharrell's personal e-mail address and I sent him an e-mail requesting permission, and he could not have been nicer. He sent me a very sweet e...

VIDEO: Oprah Brings A Humble Pharrell Williams To Tears

Image
The Big O sat down for an in-depth Oprah Prime  i interview with mega producer, songwriter and artist Pharrell Williams this past Sunday (April 13) where the two discussed the ups and downs of his successful career and his motivation among many other topics. The interview wouldn't have been an Oprah Winfrey interview had she not at least almost made Pharrell cry. It was during a clip of fans across the globe indulging in Pharrell's ' Happy ' that Oprah instigated the water works...she's good...she's real good. It's nice to see folks with mounds of success have their humbling moment. We're all human, people!! Source

Look at hip hop... Pharrell's first Oscar nod came in the Best Original Song category by way of his latest hit record " Happy " featured in Despicable Me 2 . You will now refer to him as at least " Oscar nominated producer/singer Pharrell Williams" but my hopes are that it will be "Oscar winner Pharrell Williams...". Y'all know I love grand titles...

Image
Page Six is reporting the deets to a lavish hip hop infused wedding ceremony between Pharrell Williams and his wife, Helen , who he wed in a hush hush private ceremony in Paris back in August. Set to perform are Justin Timberlake and Jay Z along with an intimate list of Pharrell's clients and friends in the industry. Pharrell Williams is celebrating his wedding to Helen Lasichanh this weekend in Miami. The singer-songwriter and producer is planning a lavish party at the National Tropical Botanical Garden, the Kampong, in Coconut Grove, Page Six can exclusively reveal.

YAY OR NAY: Kelly Rowland Goes Masculine In All Black

Image
Last night Kelly Rowland enjoyed a night on the town with bestie La La Anthony and Vanessa Bryant , the wife of Kobe Bryant, at Madeo in West Hoyllywood. While La La and Vanessa went for glammed up looks not even posing with Kelly... Kelly opted for an all black relaxed ensemble which quickly left me mourning. Look I don't know what this look is but it reminds me of a thobe and is becoming a trend in Hollywood. I've seen celebs like Pharrell Wiiliams rock numbers like these which seem more fitting for a man than a woman even if it is a sleeveless dress with slits. I see where Kelly was going with her ensemble but her masculine clunky loafers took things off track. Had Kelly unbuttoned a few buttons and replaced her shoes with some flat caged sandals the look would have came off more feminine in my opinion...not a winner, but feminine. I'm all for Muslim inspired pieces, love me some tunics and caftans, on men and women alike but we should ...

Pharrell Williams...Married?

Image
I'm sorry ladies but this looks to be true according to a recent interview with Vibe where the super producer mentions being married all while defending the scantly clad women in Robin Thicke 's " Blurred Lines " video. Pharrell Williams can be considered man of the year (so far), thanks to multiple production credits on the summer's biggest bangers but with great talent, also comes controversy.   Featuring topless models prancing around, Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" visual co-starring producer Skateboard P and rapper T.I. raised a few complaints from women's rights groups. Both Thicke and director Diane Martel have defended the video, even releasing a suitable-for-work version, but in a recent Q&A with  Rolling Stone , the N.E.R.D. beatsmith also offered his two cents.   “We were trying to make a moving version of a page in  Vogue , where you might see a woman’s breast,” Williams explained. “The body isn’t meant to be objectifi...

Will.i.am Gearing Up To Sue Pharrell Williams

Image
Pharrell Williams has a new brand that he created in which he calls "i am OTHER" that he is planning to use for clothing and other items that Will.i. am is claiming is too similar to his own brand. Will.i.am who creatively spells his name claims that he owns the rights to "i am" which is "confusingly similar" to Pharell's new brand. In his notice of opposition, Will.i.am argues that Pharrell would be using his "i am OTHER" brand on clothing and other items in a manner similar to the goods that bear his own "I AM" logo. "The registration of the mark . . . is likely to dilute the I AM mark and the WILL.I.AM mark," the document reads. Pharrell has responded to the lawsuit via RollingStone : " I am disappointed that Will, a fellow artist, would file a case against me . I am someone who likes to talk things out and, in fact, I attempted to do just that on many occasions. I am surprised in how this is being h...

NEW ALBUM ALERT: Jay Z Releases Promo For New 'Magna Carta Holy Grail' Album

Image
Still staying in the lane as your favorite rapper's favorite rapper Jay Z released a three minute video last night during half time of game 5 of the NBA Finals giving fans a glimpse into the making of his new 12th studio  album Magna Carta Holy Grail featuring some of Jay's go to producers. What this means is, Samsung Galaxy Smartphone users will have first dibs at the new album through an app they can download on June 24 which allows the first 1 million people to download the album for FREE on July 4 at 12:01 am 72 hours before the actual release date. I guess this is a part of the Samsung deal  Page Six leaked  2 weeks ago. Not only is this man doing things that you've never seen done before but he's a sucess at whatever he touches. I was skeptical about this deal but it looks to be working in his favor. Who you know can announce an album to be released in less than 30 days with no new music all during NBA Finals... Him , Jay Hova ! What's with all ...

Robin Thicke + Pharrell + T.I. Perform "Blurred Lines" On The Voice

It  is my pleasure to post and dance to this song as much as possible every chance that I  get. I'm a little disappointed that T.I. didn't dress the part nor did he get his shimmy on like he did in the actual video. Blah, still love the song.. .hey, hey, HEY !
