Thoughts on Keyshia Cole's outfit?!?

Singer Keyshia Cole recently stepped out in NYC to celebrate her new album "Woman to Woman". I've always been a fan of her music but sometimes her fashion choices are a little off to me. For example this outfit, I'm on the fence about it. Keyshia is wearing a jacket by Stella & Jamie, houndstooth shorts crop top and knee-high Versace boots. What do you think of her outfit?
Hmmm these boots though?!

PHOTO: Jay-Z goes on helicopter ride with baby Blue Ivy



Ahh the luxurious life of baby Blue Ivy!
Proud papa Jay-Z was pictured arriving in New York City via a helicopter with his adorable daughter. Baby Blue was seen wearing light blue colored noise blockers to protect her ears from the noise of the helicopter.

Most 8 month old babies are adjusting to riding in car sears but Blue Ivy Carter is adjusting to the luxury of being transported in a helicopter. Must be nice!
I wonder where Mama B was. Prolly getting ready for this weekend's Made in America Festival in Philly. Although judging by the pics, looks like Jay-Z had everything under control. Too cute!

Kris Humphries sued by woman who alleges he gave her Herpes

Kris Humphries is facing a bit of legal trouble. The NBA star is being sued by a woman who claims he gave her Herpes after they spent the night together two years ago. According to Radar Online Kayla Goldberg is suing the 27 year old for sexual battery. Yikes!!


According to Kayla the pair met on August 31, 2010- two months at a nightclub before he met Kim K. Kayla alleges that after a night of partying they went to hotel room and had unprotected sex. So now how does Kayla know for sure that she got Herpes from Kris? Why on earth did she wait 2 years to file the suit? And kids, why would you have unprotected sex from someone you just met? It's crazy out here!

Kris is of course denying the claims and is threatening to counter sue.  Man oh man this is a messy story. I hope for Kayla's sake that she has a plethora of evidence, only time will tell how this will turn out.

Thoughts?

Beyonce's Mom sold her house for how much?!? Pics inside!!

Ahh the wonderful life of the rich and fabulous! Tina Knowles recently sold her Houston home for nearly 3 million dollars after shaving of $500,000 in a last ditch effort to get the house of the market. Check out these lavish pics of Tina's house. That House of Dereon money is all the way right huh?
This driveway is giving me heart palpitations. In a good way. I LOVE it!
I wonder if the Knowles clan ever ate here?
Just stunning!
This bathroom is beautiful!
This is allegedly the home Tina shared with Matthew before his illicit affair. Remember he denied paternity of the baby until a DNA test gave him no choice but to admit his blunder?
The house has 5 bedrooms!

This house doesn't have that 'lived in feel' right? Very neat and proper
This pool looks heavenly!
Wouldn't be great to see this every time you pulled up?
The home has five bathrooms, a pool, gym and media room
Nice!

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Singer Brandy talks visiting Africa, daughter's musical ambitions & acting on the Game

Brandy
A few weeks ago I made the trek from NYC to Philly to check out songstress Brandy doing her thang at the Global Fusion Festival. The show was ahhhhmazing but I also got the opportunity to attend an intimate  30 minute press conference with the 'Put It Down' singer . She was asked a number of questions about her daughter's musical ambitions and also acting on TV but you know I just had to ask her about her recent visit to Nigeria. Take a peek at the clip below and check out what she said she enjoyed the most about visiting Africa. Btw, B-Rocka told me I was "so pretty", friends I almost passed out. I love me some Brandy!

Check out the video below:

Christina Aguilera, girl is that you?!?

The Voice judge Miss Christina Aguilera was spotted around town looking a lil different. But guys talk to me for a second, why is her skin so damn orange?! Who did this to her? I demand answers. She is too fly for this ratchedness! X-Tina was pictured onset filming a music video for new song entitled "Your Body". What do you think of her new look?

Tameka Raymond LOSES custody battle to Usher

Say it ain't so!

Shortly after losing her son Kile in a tragic accident Tameka Foster has also struck out in a bitter custody row with ex husband singer Usher Raymond. In shocking news TMZ is reporting:
Usher's ex-wife Tameka Raymond just lost in the former couple's bitter custody battle -- TMZ has learned, a judge has awarded Usher primary custody of their two sons. Tameka felt the singer was an absentee father who was too absorbed in his career to be a good dad. She also accused him of using drugs in front of the kids. Usher argued Tameka was inattentive and irresponsible.
 Tameka still retains some custodial rights -- but the extent to which Tameka will be able to see her kids is unclear.

So this means that the children will be spending the majority of their time with their father instead of their mother. Sorta like the arrangement that Dwayne Wade has with his ex-wife. I can see this getting ugly quickly, Tameka does not seem like the type to back down.  Damn! What do you think of this case?

Is this Kim Kardashian's WORST look ever?

If I were Diana Ross, I would be pissed. What in the hell?!?

She wrote  "Here are pics from behind the scenes of a shoot I did with Hype Williams" She continued on "they glammed me up and we went for a fun, crazy look, channeling Diana Ross. Definitely a new look for me"

Umm this is NOT glam! No ma'am, whoever told you that lied to you!


This look is a hot a** mess!! That orange skin, gaudy makeup and fried up hair? No, no, no!
Kim K ain't even close to emulating Diana Ross!

YASSS Diva!! This is how you do it!
