Raven Symone Heads To "Sister Act" On BROADWAY!+Romeo Miller Nabs Lead In "Madea's Witness Protection"

YBF Chick Raven Symone just landed a new gig.  And this one's on Broadway!  Get the deets inside, plus Tyler Perry's eyebrow-raising casting decision for his new movie, Madea's Witness Protection...

Raven's bringing her animated and "extra" personality and voice to the big stage again.  The 26-year-old was just cast as the lead role in Broadway's adaptation of the musical Sister Act, which opened last April.  Deadline reports she's taking over as the new Deloris Van Cartier, the role originated on the silver screen by Whoopi Goldberg.  Raven starts rehearsals in February and takes the stage the end of March at the Broadway Theater.  Congrats to her!

Fun fact: Raven made her Broadway debut when she was 5...singing with the Boys Choir of Harlem.

 

Speaking of youngins landing big roles, 22-year-old Romeo Miller (son of Master P and co-star of Jumping The Broom) was just cast as the co-lead in Tyler Perry's umpteenth Madea movie.

The former "Dancing With The Stars" cutie will star in Madea's Witness Protection--Tyler's fourth movie of 2012 (and 14th movie in 7 years).  That man Mr. Perry does not quit.

And since Tyler is good for casting folks we haven't seen in a while, he's brought on Marla Gibbs ("227"), John Amos ("Good Times"), Eugene Levy (American Pie), Denise Richards, and Tom Arnold.

The synopsis of the movie:

Eugene Levy stars in the film as George, a high level CFO at the center of a Ponzi scheme in New York City who is enrolled in the Witness Protection program along with his family in the one place that absolutely no one will think to look for them: Madea's house down South.

Romeo Miller stars as Jake, a friend of Brian (an attorney who places the family in Madea's care, also played by Tyler Perry) who was affected by the scam; Amos as Jake's (Romeo Miller's) father in the film, and Gibbs appears as Madea's neighbor.

Tyler's other movie, Good Deeds, starring Gabby Union and Thandie Newton, hits theaters February 24th.

Here's the newest trailer just released:

Drake is putting his big booty female fans/dancers to good use.  In his new video for his track "Practice", he shows how he thanks the ladies for practicing their "skills" for him.

 

Peep the vid, plus sexy Nas performing for the Superbowl edition of "Jimmy Fallon"...

So it seems like hip-hop has just stopped trying all together to put out real videos.  Now there's just asstastical girls dancing in the mirror--at home--in leggings and a bra.  Check out Drake's new video for his track "Practice" (which he samples Juvenile's "Back That Ass Up" on) off Take Care:

Drizzy eventually comes into the chick's room to give her a piece of his "thanks" for "practicing."  Sigh.

Drake also posted on his website a message asking his female fans to submit videos of themselves "practicing" their dances to his track. Meanwhile, Drizzy launches his Club Paradise tour on Valentine's Day.

 

And last night on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," GIANTS fan Nas hit up the show--which was shot in Indianapolis--to perform his track "Nasty" with The Roots.  Peep the vid above.

But before hitting the club, she watched the Clippers take on the Denver Nuggets at the Staples Center:

And rocked an oversized off-the-shoulder cream sweater with her look before switching into the orange striped tee.

Whitney & Bobby REUNITE For Dinner With Daughter Bobbi Kristina...After Bobby, Fiancée Alicia, And Baby Boy Cassius Hit The Streets

It's been umpteen years since we've seen these two together out in public.  But everyone's favorite poster couple for that Hollywood Hood love...Bobby Brown & Whitney Houston...are totally different people now.  So the twosome reunited for a normal dinner with the only daughter they have together, Bobbi Kristina.

 

Bobby was also spotted out with his fiancée, Alicia Etheridge, and their baby boy Cassius.  Pics inside...

Bobbi Kristina is looking all grown up in her mini skirt and tights and navy boots as she went to dinner at a trendy Beverly Hills eatery.  She turns 19 next month (just made myself feel INCREDIBLY old as I vividly remember when this chick was born).  And looked happy as pie to be kicking it with her parents-drama free.  Well isn't that sweet.

Whitney, who won custody of Bobbi Kris following the divorce with Bobby having visitation rights, left out the restaurant alone after Bobbi left out with her dad to head home.  And now that Ms. Bobbi Kris is officially an adult, she's free to do as she pleases...especially when it comes to spending time with both her parents.

Earlier in the day, Sparkle star Whitney made a run to the doctor's office:

And was all smiles as she waved to her fans.  But looked suspiciously out of it once she got into her awaiting car:


And an even more suspicious diamond ring on her ring finger.  Hmmm....

Meanwhile, before dinner, Bobby B. was spotted out with his new fam--his fiancee Alicia Etheridge and their 2-and-a-half year old son Cassius:

Aww little Cassius has grown up so much.  Cute kid!  And hopefully Bobby's still on board for the upcoming New Edition reunion tour the group is planning...

Actor Brian White RANTS About Racial Stereotypes, Says Black Women Like NeNe Leakes Are Portrayed As REALISTIC

$

Actor Brian White recently sat for an interview where he ranted about racial sterotypes on reality shows, then he shockingly (even though his statement had truth to it) revealed that he thinks many Black women do act like NeNe Leakes.  So people claiming black women get "stereotyped" isn't necessarily the case. Get the deets inside.....

It must have gotten under Brian White's skin when folks talked trash about his interracial marraige.  He popped off then, and now he's stating something that's comes off just a bit attacking--despite the truth in it.   During a recent interview, the traveling production What My Husband Doesn't Know star went on a long rant about racial sterotypes on reality televison.  He also said he believes many Black women in fact do act like NeNe Leakes.  So people getting upset by racial sterotypes should actually be getting upset at the "reality" itself.  And also, what is being glorified and shown as the "reality" of black women (I do agree with him on that part). Read the highlights....

 

What is your insight on the Spike Lee vs. Tyler Perry beef? Why do you think people hate Tyler Perry so much?
Because Tyler holds a mirror up to people. Stereotypes are not stereotypes today. The most popular character [in Why Did I Get Married?], and it’s not the one that Tyler picked as the most popular, is Tasha! You have Janet Jackson and Jill Scott; my point is Jill Scott and Janet are huge music stars with huge fan bases, Tasha became the most popular because her character is portrayed the most like “Love & Hip Hop” the most like, “Desperate Housewives of Atlanta,” [we think he means "Housewives Of Atlanta] you might as well switch it around and pop in Nene [Leaks]. [Tasha Smith] is brilliant, she’s nothing like the character, she’s just portraying what she sees in society, magnified.[sic]

People get mad and say that’s not us. Yes it is.

Turn on “Love & Hip Hop” and turn on “Desperate Housewives Of Atlanta” those are “reality shows.” You can’t call something reality then get mad when it shows up in the movies as reality but that’s what we’re doing. That’s where the cycle continues. They don’t do that in Africa, they don’t do that in France; they don’t connect with that message.

Do you think Tyler Perry only depicts black people in a negative light? There are a lot of black people who fit into the stereotype but there are a lot of black people who don’t.
You can’t call it a stereotype if it’s the majority. The most prevalent image in “urban society” right now is women like Nene [Leaks]. If there’s a fight that breaks out on “Love & Hip Hop” those people are one every blog, the cover of every magazine the next week. It’s not Taraji or Gabrielle, it’s whoever just got into a fist fight. Tyler’s not stereotyping, he’s holding up a mirror and people are mad at him because people don’t want to look at that image in that way.

Do you believe that the stereotypes we see on TV are prevalent in the race or just portrayed on TV? Is it really the majority of black women that act like Nene?
I have five sisters and two moms, none of them are like that! To me, I can say I’m offended if they want to represent that and don’t want to represent my mom, but my mom represents Phylicia Rashād and has been represented on TV all my life. I can’t say that. I don’t watch “Real Housewives,” I’ve never seen an episode of “Love & Hop Hop” I’m not supporting it, I’m not giving it ratings. I’m not making the stereotype exist on TV. You’ve watched it, you’ve added to why it’s on TV.


But wait........

After the interview was published, Brian had some words for the writer tweeting,

@K_Ova Shocked at how positive our convo was on phone and to read her chopped up slanted version of it = Truly disghusted. [sic]

So.....maybe these aren't his true feelings and his words were taken out of context?  Your thoughts?

Meanwhile, Diddy said, 'This is everything a father could want for his son, for him to excel at what he loves to do and is truly passionate about.  Justin is a shining example of what hard work, determination and a strong mentality can achieve. I am honored to call him my son and am happy that he is fulfilling his dream." 

He later tweeted about his other "son" Quincy's upcoming video shoot saying, Atten LA ladies my son Quincy is looking for YOU RT : Shooting my video "STAY AWHILE" in LA 2/6

Tons of celebs came out for T.I.'s big AKOO Fashion Show last night in Atlanta.  And Mr. Harris made it a family affair by having his sons, Domani, Messiah, & King walk the runway and his step-daughter, Zonnique, perform for the occasion.

 

Pics of the celeb-filled runway show inside...

Last night at Reign nightclub in Atlanta, rapper T.I. hosted the Akoo (his clothing line) Fashion Show, sponsored by ReeBok and Grey Goose.  Comedian Kevin Hart and Kenny Burns were the hosts of the evening.  And celebs filled the place for the show, featuring none other than T.I. and Tiny's own sons as three of the models.

Tiny was there front and center to support her man of course.  We still don't spy a baby bump, but she rocked a cream and silver mini skirt and loose blouse for the occasion.  Tiny's homie/hairstylist Shaneika was there (right) and T.I.'s mom Violeta Morgan was also there to support (left).

"ATL Housewife" Cynthia Bailey, Kalenna, and Keri Hilson were all there front row. 

Can't decide if I'm loving Keri's look--it's a while lot going on.

By the way, Ms. Keri sang Happy Birthday to Messiah as he was celebrating turning 11.

Diddy's baby mama Sarah Chapman was there--sans daughter Chance.

And she was spotted rocking THIS fat rock on her ring finger.  I wonder who gifted that one.  Engaged much Sarah?  Hmmm....

Diddy's other baby mama Kim Porter was there before hitting up her own 3 Brown Girls eventearlier in the night.  Great look for her.

Tameka Raymond was also in attendance in a cute look for her.

TIP had his 14-year-old stepdaughter Zonnique (in blue) and her group the OMG Girlz perform:

And the girls watched the show from the front row afterwards:

Alrighty then.

Interesting look for Tiny. Not in a great way either.

Nice rock though.  She kicked it front row with her mother-in-law Violeta.

It's unclear if the twosome will show any footage from the show on an upcoming episode of their VH1 reality show "T.I & Tiny: The Family Hustle."

Former now divorced "ATL Housewife" Lisa Wu came out to support in this denim shirt dress.  Is it just me or is something different about the face....

Oh hey Eddie Winslow!  Darius McCrary was spotted at the afterparty all over the female he's pictured with above.  We assume (at least we hope) it's his new boo.

Messaih, Domani, and King making their runway debut:

Too cute!

And little Major was intent on joining his brothers it looks like, until grandma shut that down:

Ha!

TIP and his sons (left-right) Messiah, King, and Domani all chilled out post-show:

TIP's got some strong genes.  Cute little boys.

Awww.

Kevin Hart and Kenny Burns kept the crowd laughing.

Looks like fun times were had by all.

My father is not dead! How did that rumor start up again?

And she RT'd a link to TMZ's story pointing out that the culprit of the rumor is a non-credible site known for making up celebrity death stories.

"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" is on the way...this according to VH1.  The network reportedly confirmed today that the beat-down having, ish talking, baby having, cat-fight loving show is headed down to the dirty south.

No cast has been set...but we can surely name SEVERAL people who will indeed jump at the chance to be featured on this ish.  Who do you think will be cast?

 

Meanwhile:

 

The "reunion" show is set to air February 6th.  But since the ladies, for whatever reason, couldn't bear to film in the same room together, it's done in separate clips. The drama was so extreme and the battles so intense that some cast members now refuse to be in the same room.

In the revealing one-hour special, the cast goes one-on-one with Executive Producer Mona Scott Young in which they speak candidly about this past season: Why did Somaya go missing on the show? Will Emily and Fab work it out? What did Yandy really write in her explosive e-mail? Will wedding bells really ever ring for Chrissy and Jim? And, most shocking of all, find out who quit the show and may be gone for good.

In the above sneak peek, you can see an outtake of Chrissy going in on Yandy and reminding her Yandy that she created a lane (this show) for her to get money....so she needs to check herself.  Womp.

The show airs Monday, February 6 at 8PM ET/PT.

Fashion guru and Jay-Z's long time stylist, June Ambrose, was spotted Thursday arriving to the rapper's downtown NY home he shares with wife Beyonce (and new baby Blue).  All to prep for his upcoming Carnegie Hall gigs.

June skated (literally--her shoes are the high fashion version of ice skates) to the home of The Carters Thursday afternoon.  And though some thought all the Saks bags, garment bags, and bottled water were just Beyonce's workers doing chores--we actually spotted Ms. Ambrose herself amongst the pictures. 

And when Roc Nation & Jay-Z's DJ, Young Guru, tweeted about June's arrival, we put two and two together.  And Young Guru & June's twitter exchange spilled the beans as well:

Carnegie is Calling RT @young_guru: Getting fitted by @juneAmbrose. She is skating on you ladies with these shoes!!!!

These shoes!  They're the DSquared2's 'Skate Moss' boots ($1,485).  Jay is set to perform two charity concerts at Carnegie Hall on February 6th & 7th via his Shawn Carter Foundation to help NY's United Way charities. 

June, rocking a fab ensemble of plaid pants, a fur stole, a Miss Selfridge studded leather jacket, and a black Birkin, also revealed, "On the Hautehunt for slick kicks fit for a HipHop Sovereign..Stay tuned."

And she had her assistants and residential security help out too:

June is still shooting for her upcoming VH1 show "Styled By June," so maybe we'll get to see inside the fitting when the series premieres March 19th.  Fab times.

Anywho, the Sparkle star and Brandy's brother were spotted having dinner at Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood last night.  This comes right after Whit had dinner with her ex Bobby Brown and daughter Bobbi Kristina a few nights ago as well. 

And Whitney looked happy as pie.
