    I have been FEENING for music from DC3 and the music Gods answered my prayers!
    Papa Knowles aka Matthew Knowles revealed that previously unreleased material from the group will appear on two compilation releases via his Music World Entertainment label partnership with Sony. (Does back-flip down the church aisle like momma payne). When asked about his upcoming label's plans Papa Knowles told The Huffington Post:
    "We still have our joint venture with Sony, and in November, we're putting out two Destiny's Child catalog records with new material,".
    Not only will there be new music released from the Cater 2 U ladies, a Destiny's Child reunion tour may even take place as well. Daddy says "It takes a year of planning to do these tours, but first it starts with the artist wanting to do it. And I think the ladies are still working happily in their solo careers," he explained, adding, "And I hope in the next five years that there is a reunion tour. I think it would be incredible."
    I totally concur daddy!! Well until then I will continue to bang that Destiny Fulfilled like it JUST dropped yesterday. Stay tuned.

Lauren London Joins “The Game”

Lauren London Joins “The Game”

06/25/2012  |  No Comments

06/25/2012 According to TV Guide, “ATL” actress Lauren London has signed on to be a series regular, playing the role of Kiera, a former child star who now appears on a Cosby Show-style sitcom. Not sure how I feel about this. Maybe her character can bring life to the show because it's washed. IMO. Lauren confirmed the news via Twitter, saying she was “honored to be offered the role” and hopes fans continue to tune in and support the show when it returns in 2013.

    I am actually glad to see her getting back to work. She also has a small recurring role on “Single Ladies.” Work is work as long as it doesn't damage your image. Get Money!!

06/21/2012 Yes you've read it correctly!! BET announced this morning that D’Angelo will hit the stage at the 11th annual award show next month. It will mark the R&B soul singer’s first televised performance in over 12 years. I pray he does well! This reminds of the movie Dream Girls, when Jimmy Early got on stage and made a complete fool of himself. Save the pelvic thrust for the bedroom D’Angelo and welcome back Mr.sexy!!

    This year’s awards show will air on Sunday, July 1 live from the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles at 8 p.m. EST, hosted by Samuel L. Jackson. Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, Usher, 2 Chainz, Big Sean, and G.O.O.D. Music are all set to perform as well. Although we always talk about BET and their Ghetto antics, I am sure we will all be tuning in. LOL.

K. Michelle Talks EX Boyfriend Memphitz, Keyshia Cole Comparison & Checks Tamar Braxton

K. Michelle Talks EX Boyfriend Memphitz, Keyshia Cole Comparison & Checks Tamar Braxton

06/20/2012  |  2 Comments

06/20/2012 Love And Hip Hop Atlanta premiered this past Monday with loads of drama!! While there was soooo much going on even though it was super scripted, struggling singer K. Michelle story had everyone hitting up Google to find out who the mystery woman beater was. One of my twitter peeps said it was Memphitz (Lil Wayne's BM Toya Wright husband) and I gasped!! Not chocolate, super sexy and very gentlemen like Memphitz......YES that Memphitz!

    K. Michelle chopped it up with TT Torrez of IPower 92 this week, and touched on everything and even stated that he’s probably a different man with Toya. ‘Different women bring out different things in men’. She also get's Tamar Braxton together after Tamar tweeted a few things to Toya the night of the show as well as the Keyshia Cole comparisons. Read a few of the excerpts below and click HERE to listen to the interview.
    On whether she was scared to talk about her relationship with Memphitz I wasn’t scared about that because you are only scared when you’re lying and you only get scared when there aren’t any facts. His family still talks to me and they know the truth. For me, it was like, I still try to do it right and not be shady out of respect for Toya and the situation. I did not even say his name. I told my story without saying his name because I did not want it to be like ‘Oh K is throwing shade’ or ‘K is bitter’ no! He probably is a different man now. Different women bring out different things in men. I wasn’t the one to calm him. And I’m not mad at him or her but the one person I am mad at is Tamar Braxton, that muppet, she needs to have several seats.
On what Tamar did to upset her
    She was on twitter last night [and] she deleted the tweets because she knows she doesn’t want it with [me]. She better stay over there with ‘Family Values’. She deleted the tweets because people were tweeting me what she said. she was saying to Toya ‘Oh have fun and let this girl sell her fairy tale’ and all I tweeted was that ‘I like Toni anyway,’ because I do. You know me, I don’t mess with anybody until they mess with me and I don’t play them little games. I’m from Memphis, we jump gates! We don’t play in them little games. So until the muppet gets it together she needs to stay away from me.
    On how she feels about being compared to Keyshia Cole I like the comparison that I get to Keyshia [Cole]. That’s fine because she had something to say and me and her recently talked. And me and her are going to get on the phone today. People finally connected us. We really had a woman to woman conversation and she really opened up her arms to me. [We are not going to let people put us against one another] she’s telling her story and I’m telling my story.
    Will you be tuning in next week to LHHA?

NEW GIRL GROUP ALERT: The Yes Ma'ams

NEW GIRL GROUP ALERT: The Yes Ma’ams

05/16/2012  |  No Comments

05/16/2012 Meet The Yes Ma'ams a trio of fly females by the names of Privacy, Secret and Slander. I came across this group on twitter when a guy I follow requested to know who these hot girls were. Their look off bat get's a YES MA'AM from me; Fun, Flirty, Fly mixed with Sexiness = DOPETASTIC!!! As I researched more on the group I learned that they have been grinding since last year and released a Mixtape back in April of this year titled "Taste Test". After listening to the mixtape I’ve come to the conclusion that 1) they are totally inspired by vanity 6 and 2) Prince must be their grandfather because they have that lusty vocal thing going on heavy. I believe if they link up with the right writers i.e The Dream, Keri Hilson and or Ne-yo just to name a few, they really have a chance at taking the industry by storm. Check out their mixtape here and tell me if you think their sound is a NO Ma’am or a YES Ma'am. P.s Current Affair, Light Up The Night and Only If I Say So are my personal favs. Good Luck Ladies. more

03/30/2012 • A blonde wig rocking Nicki Minaj hit up American Idol last night to perform her now top 10 single "Starships". I am never impressed by her live performances. However this performance was much better than her devil worshiping Grammy's performance. Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded will be in a store near you next Tuesday.

[Say What?!?] André Leon Talley Gets His Own Reality Show!

[Say What?!?] André Leon Talley Gets His Own Reality Show!

03/30/2012  |  No Comments

03/30/2012 I couldn't have been more excited after hearing that Bravo has intentions of airing the tentatively titled Fashion Stories of NYC — featuring Mr. André Leon Talley for its fall lineup! The former Vogue Editor-at-Large, who has coined such words as "Dreckitude" is back in the reality TV world (he recently departed from America's Next Top Model). His role is slated to be that of a mentor. According to Bravo TV:

    "We follow four up-and-coming fashion design teams as they produce the defining collection of their careers, all under the watchful eye of fashion icon Andre Leon Talley. The mission to “create, show and sell” is clear for emerging designers striving to build a business in New York City, which remains the heart of the fashion industry."
    The premise of the show seems simple enough and it really doesn't stray too far from the prime time fashion shows out now (A pinch of Project Runway, a dash of Fashion Star...). With ALT at the helm I'm excited and hopeful that this show will be another classic. Thoughts? Who'll be watching with me?

'You're so good at connecting with people that I think that we actually feel we know you. Things are clearly going brilliantly in your career. I just wondered if you are as happy in your private life, and will we see a certain Mr. Ashton Kutcher perhaps making a trip over here?'
    Rihanna then responded: 'Wow, how disappointing was that question?'She then went on to add: 'I'm happy and I'm single, if that's what you're really asking.' All while putting a good island spell on that H-e for trying her like that!!
