Former NBA ballers Antoine Walker and John Salley joined former "RHOA" star Sheree Whitfield on BET's "Don't Sleep" to discuss why large numbers of professional athletes often end up broke.  Listen to what they revealed inside....

Former NBA champion Antoine Walker, who's most famous for wasting away his $110M fortune, appeared on BET's "Don't Sleep" last night to discuss some of the mistakes he made with handling his money as a professional athlete.  He was joined on the panel by former "RHOA" star Sheree Whitfield (who claims her ex-husband, former NFL star Bob Whitfield, isn't doing well financially) and John Salley who each offered their own perspective on the topic.  

John offered up some advice to young athletes saying the first thing they should do when signing a contract is get a financial adviser and a lawyer.  John suggested that the placement of those two persons far exceeds the need to hire an agent.  

Then, Sheree and Antoine had an interesting discussion about the role wives and girlfriends play when it come to the mishandling of money, especially when the athlete doesn't allow his partner to have any say in the finances.  Yeah..that got interesting.

She was hitting up the show to talk about all things "The Voice" as she's serving as the social media correspondent:

Hair and makeup perfect as usual.  Fab.

Rapper Lil' Kim, singer Cassie and model Sessilee Lopez have all been spotted in the same body hugging LaQuan Smith dress. Decide who ran it inside....

Model Sessilee Lopez, Lil' Kim and Cassie clearly love a sparkling skin tight mini dress--namely the LaQuan Smith sea urchin dress. LaQuan, an African American designer based in Queens, NY, lent the dress to Sessilee for a photo shoot recently.  Lil' Kim chose the designer's dress for a photo used as a part of her 12 days of Christmas campaign ths week.  Meanwhile, Cassie rocked the dress at the 2012 MET Gala after party.

Besides Lil' Kim's necklace, the ladies kept it simple and didn't rely on accessories...letting their curves do the talking.  

So.......

WHO RAN IT?

These two have been spilling their love for each other all over twitter for months.  And last night, YBF spies caught them making out at a nightclub in NYC.  Check out pics of singer & "Love & Hip Hop ATL" star K.Michelle& NY Knicks baller J.R. Smith sharing love in the club inside...

K.Michelle was hosting her signing party (for her deal with Warner Bros.) at Kiss & Fly in NYC last night.  And, of course, her on-again-off-again boo J.R. Smith stopped by after his big win against the Lakers.  And kisses and cuddles ensued.

J.R. has been pretty vocal on Twitter about having a crush on her.  And apparently they had something going on--which ended abruptly--because K recently spilled her heart during an interview saying she wishes she didn't push him away and could get him back.  And get him back she did.

Before last night's game, she was riding for her man after he tweeted a sassy "#SoWhat" about folks saying Kobe was in town and the Knicks better watch out.  K.Michelle said:"We #SOWHAT these niggas GAME TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The twosome spent the night in the club kissing, cuddling, and giving 0 f*cks who was watching & had something to say.  Toward the end of the night, J.R. & K. put themselves on blast tweeting each other (and their followers):

RT @TheRealJRSmith Hello world @kmichelle is going home with me! #hoodlove> u damn right baby me and u against the world. Keep hating

Oh?  And this morning, K. conveniently was tweeting lyrics to Meek Mill's song (and she deleted for some reason)

First we go together and break up, #Layup. Smh

Oh these two...

As Evelyn Lozada prepares for the next season of "Basketball Wives," she recently told media that she believes in second chances...even for Chad Ochocinco.  Find out what she said inside....

While fans and critics scratch their heads about Rihanna and Chris Brown's"friendship," another ex-couple that seems to be rekindling the fire (on Twitter of course) is Evelyn Lozada (Rih's friend as well) and Chad Ochocinco.

Chad and Evelyn have been communicating on Twitter (most recently for Evelyn's birthday) where the two said they missed each other and Chad called hismelf Evelyn's "missing piece."

Now, Ev has been talking about second chances and it seems like Chad may have a shot at reuniting with his ex-wife after their head-butting fight over a condom receipt.  While speaking to RumorFix, (at the unveiling of her “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign), Ev talked about the aftermath of her split from Chad saying,  

“I have family and friends that have been very, very supportive. I took about a month, month and a half … I just went away for a while and had to regroup and refocus. I feel like I got another chance at life, I know that may sound crazy but that’s how I feel. I’m just like, ‘Ok, we need to keep going, I’m not gonna let any of that tear me down.’ I have good people around me so it’s been OK.”

And after Chad spoke to ESPN about his cheating and said he deserved a second chance, Evelyn told RumorFIx, 

“I do believe in second chances. I actually had someone ask me that recently, and I do. I’m not bitter, things happen and yeah, I do believe in second chances. I would want somebody to give me a second chances, and you never know.”

Hmmm.....it seems the reality star still has a place in her heart for Chad.  Do you think the two should reunite?  

Watch Ev's interview here:

SPEAK ON IT............ 

Chris Brown may have jetted to Dubai from Paris without his homieloverfriend Karrueche Tran, but he's still got her on his heart.  Her clothing line at least.  Check out Breezy pubbing The Kill, Karrueche pushing back the launch date, and Kae's bestie Christina Milian's, as well as Rihanna's response to it all inside...

Breezy posted an Instagram pic today with a friend of his in Dubai.  And along with him saying how good friends are hard to find, he is seen sporting his on-again off-again lover Karrueche Tran's clothing line, The Kill.  The logo is right over his heart on the white tee he's rocking.  And since Karrueche teamed up with one of Chris' stylists, Ugo Mozie, to do this line, it's no surprise Chris wants to lend his support.

He tweeted the above pic saying:

"Real friend in Dubai. So humble and kind. You don't meet genuine people everyday so when u do keep them close."

And while Kae chills back home in L.A., she tweeted her frustration with the line not launching on 12/12/12 as planned:

And her good celeb friend Christina Milian hit up the "Wendy Show" yesterday (it aired today) to promote the season finale of "The Voice."

And she said Kae's a sweetheart and she thinks she and Chris make a good couple.  Mmhmm.

Meanwhile, Rihanna tweeted a nice letter to her Navy yesterday thanking them for making her Unapologetic album #1 in umpteen countries--including the U.S. for the first time in her career. She also tweeted a cryptic message which seemed directly aimed at Chris Brown:

Never underestimate a man's ability to make you feel guilty for his mistakes

Things ought to get interesting as she's set to perform on "The Voice" season finale on December 18th.

Actor and photographer Lance Gross covers the latest issue of ROLLING OUT magazine where he dishes about the attention he gets from female fans...and if fatherhood is in the future. See the highlights inside and find out Tamar Braxton's album release date....

In the latest issue of ROLLING OUT, actor Lance Gross, who's also making moves behind the camera lens as a photographer, opened up about his female fans, being a role model and revealed that he wants kids.    Here are the highlights:

Why is being a role model to children so important to you?

I grew up in Oakland, [Calif.], and I just remember how it was growing up there. I had my father, and he was an amazing man and an amazing role model, so I always wanted to mirror that … So when I got into this business, I told myself that I wanted to be somebody that little kids aspired to be like … I just think it’s real important — especially for young black males — because I look at the guidance that my father gave me. I had friends who didn’t have that growing up, and I see how they turned out compared to how I turned out, and it’s a big difference. So I think that I owe that to my father, because he played his part, he did what he was supposed to do, and he set a great example … I just want to keep continuing to set the example that my father set for me.

Do you ever think about becoming a father so you can pass down all of the things that your father taught you?

Oh yeah, of course! … I definitely want children. That’s important to me, so I just want to make sure that I’m completely prepared for it when that day comes.

Have you grown accustomed to the amount of attention that you get from women?

No, it’s still a trip to me. It always feels new, and I can never get used to that. I mean, I’m humble … to me, I’m just a regular cat from Oakland, California. The attention is nice, though, and I really appreciate it. I appreciate every compliment, and never let any of it go to my head.

Lance is currently starring in the movie The Last Fall, which he also produced.

In music news....

As her "Love and War" single (which we LOVE) climbs the charts, fans are naturally curious about Tamar Braxton's album release date.  And now we have an answer. The still-untitled project will hit the stores on February 12, 2013 via Universal Music Group / Streamline Records / Interscope Records.  Glad Vince finally let this girl LIVE.  Just jokes...

And in addition to her "Tamer & Vince" co-star LaShawn Daniels (who helmed the lead single), other album contributors include The Underdogs, Ester Dean, Stargate, and Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins.

In a horrific scene playing out all morning, at least 26 people were killed today after a gunman (who has now been identified) opened fire at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. More information inside....

According to CBS News and the Associated Press,  a gunman opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut this morning, killing at least 26 people.  Eighteen of them were children.  Early reports say the mass shooting happened around 9:41AM this morning, and the dead gunman was armed with two semi-automatic weapons (one of them being a 223-caliber rifle) and has ties to the elementary school and New Jersey.   Police have entered a New Jersey residence believing to be tied to the shooter who supposedly drove to CT at some point.

During a press conference held moments ago, Connecticut State Police Lt. Paul Vance said all local police and on and off-duty troopers were called to respond to the scene.

CBS 2 News in New York is also reporting that one person was escorted out of the woods surrounding the school and is currently being held by police as a suspect in the mass shooting. One witness said the man looked into the eyes of parents and said, "I didn't do it" as he was taken to a police car.  

Some reports are saying the incident began with an altercation in the principal's office, with the principal being the first person shot.  One of the school children interviewed on local newscasts said his life was saved as he was in the hallway, headed to the principal's office, when he was pulled into a classroom by a teacher who saw bullets flying.

It's also being reported that President Obama has spoken to Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy and has pledged federal support.

Pics inside...

A real diva is ALWAYS prepared for those flashing lights.  And MiMi reminded us why she is just that:

She showe doff her gams in a short sparkling gold dress and gold heels as she entered "Idol" studios to continue taping before next month's premiere.

Meanwhile:

Nicki Minaj hopped out her car in her slippers, jeans, and a head wrap guarding her face from the paparazzi.

As he wiped tears from his eyes, President Obama spoke to the nation early today as the "Father-In-Chief".  He offered words of comfort to a nation rattled by a mass shooting at an elementary school in Connecticut that left has 27 people dead, and possibly more outside the scene of the school. Watch President Obama's statement inside.....

Our Commander-In-Chief spoke to the nation earlier today following a horrific mass shooting at an elementary school in Newtown, CT that left 27 people dead, including 20 children. And he became extremely emotional throughout the speech. He said, 

This afternoon, I spoke with Governor Malloy and FBI Director Mueller. I offered Governor Malloy my condolences on behalf of the nation, and made it clear he will have every single resource that he needs to investigate this heinous crime, care for the victims, counsel their families.

We’ve endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years. And each time I learn the news I react not as a President, but as anybody else would -- as a parent. And that was especially true today. I know there’s not a parent in America who doesn’t feel the same overwhelming grief that I do.

The majority of those who died today were children -- beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10 years old. They had their entire lives ahead of them -- birthdays, graduations, weddings, kids of their own. Among the fallen were also teachers -- men and women who devoted their lives to helping our children fulfill their dreams.

So our hearts are broken today -- for the parents and grandparents, sisters and brothers of these little children, and for the families of the adults who were lost. Our hearts are broken for the parents of the survivors as well, for as blessed as they are to have their children home tonight, they know that their children’s innocence has been torn away from them too early, and there are no words that will ease their pain.

As a country, we have been through this too many times. Whether it’s an elementary school in Newtown, or a shopping mall in Oregon, or a temple in Wisconsin, or a movie theater in Aurora, or a street corner in Chicago -- these neighborhoods are our neighborhoods, and these children are our children. And we're going to have to come together and take meaningful action to prevent more tragedies like this, regardless of the politics.

This evening, Michelle and I will do what I know every parent in America will do, which is hug our children a little tighter and we’ll tell them that we love them, and we’ll remind each other how deeply we love one another. But there are families in Connecticut who cannot do that tonight. And they need all of us right now. In the hard days to come, that community needs us to be at our best as Americans. And I will do everything in my power as President to help.

Because while nothing can fill the space of a lost child or loved one, all of us can extend a hand to those in need -- to remind them that we are there for them, that we are praying for them, that the love they felt for those they lost endures not just in their memories but also in ours.

May God bless the memory of the victims and, in the words of Scripture, heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds.

 

We offer our condolences to the families.....

Actress Kerry Washington is back home in NYC and stopped by "Live With Kelly & Michael" this morning where she talked about Django Unchained saying it was the"hardest role I've ever had to do psychologically amd emotionally."

The Bronx-born fab chick also revealed that fans of her hit show, Scandal, call themselves Gladiators and she's really excited that the show is so beloved.  She also jokingly invited the studio audience to her home for Christmas dinner, while her parents sat right in the audience.

Watch her interview here:

Also on television...

Tyler Perry has announced the two scripted shows he'll be bringining to OWN in 2013.  The first is a drama called “The Haves And The Have Nots” which focuses on drama between two families: the affluent Cryer family and the impoverished family of their housekeeper Hanna.

The second is a sitcom called “Love Thy Neighbor,” which centers on the food, fun and laughter found at a place called Love's Diner.

Both shows will be produced my Tyler Perry Studios and are set for a mid-2013 premiere on Oprah's network.  Will you be watching?

The level of ratchety foolery that went down in Charlotte, North Carolina the other night. The wives/fiancee's of a few Charlotte Bobcats were wilin' out at a local club and ended up getting arrested after a brutal fight. Over what? Who knows. But we do know somebody's purse got stolen. Deets and foolish video of the chicks still trying to fight while getting arrested inside....

Foolery ensued at an unofficial Clippers vs. Bobcats afterparty Wednesday night at Label.  We thought this news video from Charlotte's WSOCTV.com was fake at first due to these chicks acting like this was a horribly scripted scene from "Love & Hip Hop ATL".  But unfortunately, it's real.

Jamie Thomas, the 26-year-old wife of Bobcats forward Tyrus Thomas, and Sascha Smith, the fiancee of Bobcats gaurd Ben Gordon, were arrested along with 2 other women.  Jamie has been charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon and DWI.  And Jamie looks extra roughed up in her mugshot and getting arrested on video below:

One of the women arrested at the Bobcats post-game party, 22-year-old Chicago native Morgan Williams (seen in the video above in this tragic orange hot pants outfit), tried to kick WSOC cameraman while the camera was rolling.

And once more details spilled out, we found out that Morgan was accused of jacking another woman's purse named Alissa Jordan. And Jamie Thomas refused to get out of her car once police arrived on the scene, she tried to run over a cop (sigh), and cops had to break her driver's side window to get her and her friends, including Sascha, out (double sigh).  No word on how all of this connects together.  Just sounds like a night of ratchet foolywangery.

The Charlotte Bobcats did release a statement saying they are aware of the matter, but they said they will not get involved.  Oh....

Sascha Smith & Ben Gordon

We dug up their joint birthday party video from this past March.  The party went down in Birmingham at Chen Chow Brasserie.  And the woman in blue partying with Sascha looks very much like the Morgan Williams chick:

Jamie Thomas & Tyrus Thomas

As long as these chicks don't get a reality show...

Weeeerk.

The streets are buzzing that actor and singer Ray J has gotten engaged to magazine model Mia Milano. Get the deets on what's going on inside.....

A recent accessory worn by model Mia Milano (a diamond ring on her left hand) in pics where she seems to be flaunting it has many folks thinking that her on and off again boyfriend Ray J has finally popped the question.  But, people may be reading too far into things.  

Though Ray J did tweet a pic of himself boo'd up with Mia under the caption "GameOver," a source close to the couple says the rumors are not true and there is no engagement.  In fact, the source told TMZ that Ray J is still heartbroken over Whitney Houston's death and isn't making any plans to walk down the aisle.  Too bad for Mia.

Meanwhile, Mia is currently on a US club tour with her bff Shantel Jackson, who's engaged to Ray's bestie Floyd Mayweather. 

How convenient.
