Ashlee Simpson is dating Diana Ross's son. Pics of the couple's first official outing!

How cute are these two?!?

Ashlee Simpson and her new boo Evan Ross made their first official appearance together as a couple at the launch of Jessica Simpson’s Fall 2013 Collection on Tuesday, July 30. Ashlee have reportedly been friends for years, but now the friendship has blossomed into something more.

Very nice! It's always nicer when you start out as friends, I wish them all the best!

Simon Cowell's gonna be Dad. His baby mama is his best friend's wife!

Damn Simon, this is some kinda scandal. Call Olivia Pope!

People Magazine reports: 

The X Factor judge, 53, is expecting his first child with New York socialite Lauren Silverman, 36. The news has been hot gossip among friends recently because Silverman is married to Cowell's close friend, real estate mogul Andrew Silverman. 

Damn damn damn! This is way too juicy. Not surprisingly the Silvermans have reportedly filed for divorce. Does this make Simon a homewrecker?!

Congrats to the couple I guess. Any new life is a blessing. But what a salacious story...

Kelly Rowland COVERS Essence magazine!

I'm rooting for Kelly Rowland. There's just something about her that I just love.

The 32 year old singer is the September cover girl for Essence Magazine. Doesn't she just look ravashing? The Dirty Laundry singer tells the magazine “For a long time I wasn’t happy, but that had nothing to do with Beyoncé. That had to do with me trying to get my life in order and make better decisions for myself. I’m seeing all these wonderful things happen for her and I am happy for her. But I want a path. I want things to pop off for me, too. Not on her level but whatever my level is supposed to be.”

I can totally understand that! I'm happy that she seems to have found her stride. In other Essence news, the magazine has a new Editor in Chief - Vanessa K Bush. You can read about her here:

Glad to see the magazine switching thangs up..

Tamar Braxton REVEALS new baby & says "it wasn't love at first sight"

Tamar Braxton debuted new adorable son Logan this morning in a very candid interview with ABC's Good Morning America. Married to popular recording producer Vincert Herbert, Tay-Tay also spilled the tea on her difficult post pregnancy experience.

The 36 year old singer says it wasn't love at first sight with her baby Logan. Tamar admits she felt "unattached" to Logan when she first gave birth because he wouldn't breastfeed and she had no milk. 

The "Love & War" singer told the news outlet that she didn't change diapers for up to 2 weeks because she felt uncomfortable in her new role. "Well you know, I was questioning my motherhood. … Like, is this a mistake that God made? Or like, is this something that I need to hand over to my husband because he and the baby connected instantly. And I wanted that. And I guess I was a little jealous, pretty much. Am I being really honest here? I guess I am," she said.

Research suggests that up to 30% of women feel the same way. That's so sad. Any Moms out there experience the same kinda feelings post childbirth? 

I respect Tamar for sharing her story, this must been have a horrific experience. Things did turn around though because once her son started to breast-feed, she finally felt a connection to him.

"When he finally latched on I felt like he got me and I got him and this was all meant to be," she said.

"I am very happy. I feel complete … he is the best thing that ever happened to me," she said, speaking of her son.

Keri Hilson is heading to South Africa in Oct! Deets inside!

So much for taking a break right?!

"Pretty Girl Rock" singer Keri Hilson is heading to Mzansi. The 30 year old singer just tweeted:

"South Africa!!! Guess what? I'm coming to the Macufe Music Festival in October!!!! Can't wait to see you guys again!!"

Sweet! I like Keri's music, should be a great show!

Wonder if she will bring her 23 year boo-thang NBA player Serge Ibaka! Rumor has it the Congolese baller put a ring on it! They could just have those wedding in South Africa, its so scenic there! Wishful thinking right?

For my SA peeps will you be going to the show?

VIDEO: A certain celeb didn't know what she was wearing on the red carpet so what did I do? FUNNY!

 

Have you ever wondered how celebrities get red carpet glam? Well I asked a bevy of stars from Adrienne Bailon, to Bridget Kelly and even Kirk Franklin and his wife Tammy on the red carpet what their beauty secrets were and they spilled all the deets to me.

 

And you HAVE to see this clip of me and Tatyana Ali, she was really funny. That's the first time I had to look into the celeb's clothing to see the tag. Yes to keeping it real...ha! Peep the video below:

 

 

Did Paula Patton break a red carpet rule!? Too much legs AND boobs? Judge for yourself!

Actress Paula Patton stunned last night at the red carpet premiere of her new film "2 Guns"

As much as I loved her Basil Soda gown, some fashion critics were hardly amused by Mrs. Robin Thicke's get up. Red Carpet Fashions wrote:

"Breaking the cardinal rule of red carpet dressing, the actress opted to showcase both legs and boobs, taking the elegance out of the look as it was presented on the model"

Hmmmm I disagree with them. I love Paula's plunging neckline and high slit. Her curves look killer in the dress versus the model's straight up & down look.

But I want to know what you think. Was Paula's look too much? Do you prefer the black & white dress on the model or the actress? Holla at me!

Charlize Theron meets with President Jacob Zuma! See the pics..

That Charlize Theron is such a beauty right?

The 37 year old beauty met with South African President Jacob Zuma in Pretoria on Monday in her role as an ambassador for the United Nations program on AIDS.

The South African born actress says she believes the potential to usher in an AIDS-free generation is a real possibility under Zuma's leadership. SideNOTE: Look at the President grinning like a Cheshire cat. Who wouldn't be blush standing next to such beauty!?

Tweeting her excitement prior to heading home on July 26, the star, who goes under the Twitter handle of @CharlizeAfrica, shared, 'Excited 4 the opportunity 2 speak w/President Zuma about helping youth in my home country stay HIV free.'

I love celebs that give back! Kudos to you Charlize!

Gabrielle Union debuts honey blonde tresses, are we feeling it?

I'm a Gabrielle Union fan so to me the actress can do no wrong when it comes to her fashion choices. I wish I could say the same thing for her most recent hair color, I am so NOT feeling the blonde look. Thankfully it's just a temporary look. It seems the 40 year actress dyed her hair blonde (or rather got a blond lace front wig) for a new untitled Chris Rock movie. 

Hmm do blondes really have more fun?

Is it me or does Gabby place the same person in all her movies? I'm still a fan though..just saying..

Thoughts on the hair!?

Did you see Nonhle Thema's "Mother in Law" on the UK Daily Mail site? Hmmm

Ok well it's technically not the TV personality's mother in law- since her & beau Arthur aren't married yet. But they are engaged right? Close enough for me..

Such a cute couple - Nonhle & Arthur with their adorable baby Star

Apparently Arthur's mama is claiming that her youthful looks are ruining her life. The mother of four says at age 47 she hates being mistaken for someone half her age and wishes she looked the same age as her friends.

 

According the Daily Mail her relationship with her son Arthur has suffered quite a bit:

Anne says: 'Girls just assumed he was taken. He found it embarrassing to have to explain to them I was his mother"

 
Anne used to enjoy shopping trips with eldest son Arthur, but he got fed up of his mum being mistaken for his girlfriend - making it impossible for him to meet anyone either.

'I couldn’t believe that me looking young was stopping both me and my son from meeting anyone.'

 

 

I will admit that she certainly does look young, but she also dresses like someone half her age..so I could see the confusion. I hope she can repair her relationship with her son, there's a cute grandbaby in the mix now!

Oh so since we now know Arthur's Mama - we can only assume that he is related to his brother Lupe via their father right? You know all your family business is just exposed when you are in the public eye. Kunzima!
