CAUGHT ON TAPE: Jen Williams Gets SLAPPED UP On "Basketball Wives 4" Supertrailer!

0
0

Ish just got even uglier on the upcoming fourth season of "Basketball Wives."  We've got the first look at the almost 5 minute supertrailer.  And guard ya grills...Jennifer Williams gets SLAPPED and Evelyn Lozada is on a mission to whoop ass.

 

Check it inside....

As I've said plenty of times before, I still don't fully understand why there is beef in the "circle" between Evelyn & Jen.  Maybe it's because I can't get through a full episode as my foolywang tolerance is only so high these days.  The only comparable thing that comes to mind are dogfights....but that would be mean.

But still, Jen finds herself defending her face...yet again...from people attacking her.  After she got a drink tossed in her face and being involved in several fights with her co-stars on previous seasons, this season we see Jen get pimp slapped in the face by Evelyn's assistant Nia Crooks.  Yes, THIS is where that recent lawsuit stems from.  And if that wasn't enough, Evelyn jumped on the huge table to attack Jennifer herself directly after the slap. 

Aside from the slap ups, F bombs, and screaming matches--Royce Reed is trying to get her theater career off the ground in NYC, Evelyn is trying to plan her wedding to Chad (while fighting with newbie Kenya Bell who calls Evelyn a ho), newcomer Kesha Nichols is trying to defend herself against the "ladies," and Shaunie O'Neal is still sitting around with the "OMG I'm in shock" face while doing nothing about the foolery.

Peep the supertrailer below:

The seaosn premieres on VH1 on February 20 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.


VIDEO FAB: Jay-Z & Kanye Drop 'N*ggas In Paris" Vid

The Throne just dropped their video for "N*ggas In Paris."  Check out visuals of Jay & Kanye rocking the stage on tour with special effects likely to cause seizures...

We've been waiting for months for the visuals to Kanye West & Jay-Z's huge "N*ggas In Paris" track.  And it just dropped.

Instead of shooting an original video, the fellas used footage from their Watch The Throne tour stop in Los Angeles with plenty of special effects on top. Kaleidoscope effects, laser lights, and tigers all over the place.

And seeing that they performed the track 10 times in L.A. (and umpteen times in most cities), they had plenty of footage to pull from.  Would have still preferred a hot original Euro themed video though.

Peep the vid.  The Throne is up for 3 Grammys this Sunday including Best Rap Album, Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance for "Otis."

Janelle Monae, Jennifer Hudson and Jessica White were amongst the celebs who attended the amfAR New York Gala in preparation of Fall 2012 Fashion Week.  See the pics inside....

Jennifer Hudson stepped out in a gorgeous Roberto Cavalli gown last night at Cipriani Wall Street for the amfAR New York Gala.  

She also posed with Mr. Roberto Cavalli himself, who was the honoree of the night, at the event.  Gorgeous look for her.

Jenny chatted it up with Cindy Crawford over dinner.

Model Liya Kebede also attended in an interesting look for cream and black pants with a matching blouse.

Model Joan Smalls looked fab in this black ensemble with a vampy lip color.

Miss Universe 2011 Leila Lopes looked gorgeous in her red gown and high ponytail.

She also posed with Mr. Cavalli inside.

Theophilus London also attended.....in these jeans.  These slits though...

Janelle Monae was literally showing out in her silky black blouse.  And we're not mad!  It's the sexiest look we've seen her do as she usually keeps to her buttoned up black and white ensembles.  But it looks like somebody's ready to step it up a notch in this very deep V-neck top.

She also performed in her more conservative look.

 

Jessica White hit the scene in red and reminde dus turbans aren't for everybody:

Not really feeling the headpiece or the gown, but chick sure seemed confident striking a pose.

Designer Rachel Roy was also there in a neutral ensemble of a light tan gathered dress, black blazer, and nude pumps.

The black-tie gala was hosted by Sarah Jessica Parker and raised money for AIDS research, prevention and education.

EXCLUSIVE: LeToya Luckett & Michelle Williams Reveal They're In AWE Of Beyonce's Post-Baby Bod!

TheYBF.com hit the black carpet at last night's ESSENCE Black Women In Music event in L.A.  And the YBF celebs all had something to say about Beyonce's new post-Baby Blue bod.  Check out what her former groupmate, LeToya Luckett, and plenty others expected from Queen Bey inside.  Plus, Mama Tina is talking about Blue Ivy, who already has a trademark pending...

It was Kelly Rowland's big night as an ESSENCE Black Women In Music honoree.  But that didn't stop Michelle Williams from gushing about both Kel and their other sister Beyonce.  And LeToya and others had something to say as well.  Apparently, we weren't the only ones in awe of Mrs. Knowles-Carter's debut this week.

"First of all, I already know, Bey stays in the gym and she's not gonna let none of THIS happen," LeToya dished to us on the carpet.  "I know she done shook that weight already....so you gotta love her."

Michelle was excited for the hot new mom and her new bod saying, "Honey...she is fierce honey!"  And about Baby Blue, "She is darling and absolutely amazing and so, so gorgeous."

Check out our exclusive red carpet chats with Michelle, LeToya, and more:

 

 

In other Baby Blue Ivy news, grandma Tina Knowles is loving every ounce of her.  She told People mag at the Runway to Win fundraising reception this week:

"She's doing great.  She's beautiful.  It's the second best job I've ever had."

We're assuming being MOM to 2 successful daughters is first.  Sweet!

And about that trademark rumor on Baby Blue's name--it seems to be true.  The Washington Post reports The Carters filed a trademark with the federal government last month:

On Jan. 26, new parents Beyoncé and Jay-Z filed an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect the baby’s name — and reserve it for a future line of baby carriages, baby cosmetics, diaper bags and other undoubtedly fabulous accoutrements for the fashion-forward infant.

Get ready for House of Dereon Blue!

Will Smith and his son Jaden were spotted on the set of their flick After Earth.  See the pics inside and also watch the trailer for Tyler Perry's Good Deeds.

Will Smith recently posted a few photos of he and son Jaden on the Costa Rican set of their next film After Earth. 

Previously titled "1000 A.E.", sci-fi flim is set 1.000 years into the future. It will follow a young boy who navigates an abandoned and sometimes scary land to save himself and his estranged father after their ship crashes on an alien planet. 

Set for a June 7, 2013 release, the flick is produced by Overbrook Entertainment with M. Night Shyamalan directing. Stephen Gaghan and Gary Whitta will handle the screenplay.

Meanwhile, Jaden has a lot on his plate as he's also signed up to reprise his role in Karate Kid 2 with Jackie Chan.  Will and Jada Pinkett Smith will be helping produce the film while screenwriter Zak Penn will do the screenplay.   Also, Jaden will star in "Amulet" with Willow Smith while daddy hits the big screen in Men In Black 3.  This family is on 100 right now in Hollywood.  Makes you wonder just how truthful are the divorce rumors...do they even have time for one??

Also in movies.......

Tyler Perry has released a sneak peek from Good Deeds.  The scene stars his co-lead Thandie Newton. The film opens in theaters everywhere on February 24, 2012 and stars Brian White, Rebecca Romijn, Jamie Kennedy, Eddie Cibrian, Jordenn Thompson, and Beverly Johnson with Phylicia Rashad and Gabrielle Union.  

 

And speaking of Ms. Union:

Tocarra Jones is looking all kinds of fabulous these days.  The model/actress was spotted out in Beverly Hills shopping it up.  We've got the pics of the svelte chick with her cutie pup inside...

Former "Top Model" and "Celebrity Fit Club" contestant Tocarra was spotted in her jeans and polka dotted blouse shopping at Herve Leger and Wolford yesterday in L.A.  And she has her ridiculously cute tiny pup in tow.

Toccara, who turns 31 next month, made a few guest appearances on TBS' "Are We There Yet?" last season.  And she also hit the red carpet of the ESSENCE Black Women In Music event last night.  Our only question is...does this chick have a sponsor?  We're not mad though.  Do you boo.

Gloria Govan DISHES on "BBW: LA" & Her Romance With Matt Barnes + NOW Halle Berry & Olivier Martinez Are ENGAGED....FOR REAL!

Gloria Govan revealed mire about her "BBW: LA" drama and romance with Matt Barnes in a recent interview with web host Staci Harris.  And guess who tagged along for the interview....MATT!  Watch inside and get deets on new reports about Halle Berry & Olivier Martinez's engagement!

Gloria Govan recently stopped by Staci Harris' web show where she dished on "BBW:LA," the Kardashians (mainly going in on Kris Jenner), and her on and off again romance with Matt Barnes.

And guess who came to the interview with her......Mr. Matt Barnes! (The two are pictured above with the web show hosts.)  Guess we were right when we speculated last week the two were getting back together.

At the (4:26) mark, Gloria is asked about what happened during/after the "BBW:LA" taping with her split from Matt and HE chimes in saying "she was still giving up the a$$."  Classy.

Watch the interview here:

 

In other "couple" news......

 

Earlier, reports surfaced that Halle Berry want to move to France with her daughter and her "boyfriend."  And people close to Halle originally shot down rumors they were engaged (rememeber this engagement news last month).  Well apparently the emerald ring is still NOT an engagement ring, but they are indeed engaged, according to TMZ.

Though they have not announced it publicly, new sources are saying that Halle and Olivier did indeed get engaged after the first of this year. 

The engagement would make sense as it would be weird to ask a judge to let you move your daughter away from her dad so you can shack up with your boyfriend in another country. Also, Halle has been receiving numerous death threats from stalkers and the move may indeed make her and Nahla safer.

This custody battle is a mess, but congrats to Halle and Olivier!

BONUS: Here's Halle & Olivier's new poster for their upcoming movie (where they met) Dark Tide which still doesn't have a release date:

Cassie's single "King of Hearts" has finally dropped in full.  Check it under the cut and decide if we love it....

It's her first single off her upcoming Electro Love album.  And conflicting reports cite Kanye West and J2 as the producer.  Kanye did preview the track in a London club a few months ago during a DJ gig.

The electro dance track is fast paced with her usual airy voice. 

Electro Love, her second studio album, is set for a May 2012 release via Interscope Records.

So...

DO WE LOVE IT?!

WILD PARTIES! Whitney Houston LEAVES The Club With BLOOD And SCRATCHES On Leg And Wrist+Shemar Moore Hosts Crazy Lingerie Superbowl Party

Whitney Houston went out partying last night and was seen with blood and scratches on her leg and wrist!  See the pics inside and peep photos of a wild lingerie party at Shemar Moore's house.....

 

Last night, Whitney Houston was spotted leaving Tru Hollywood nightclub in LA.  And she looked happy (we guess) and all, but why the blood and scratches??

 

Not too sure about what happened INSIDE the club, but Whitney (and her wig) both looked a little tired.

Whatever may have happened, she was able to pull it together and sign a few autographs and show love to her fans. Sigh.....one has to wonder if the bankruptcy stories are true.

And we hope those cuts--which some seemed to have been there a while--are purely accident.

 

BONUS.......

Shemar Moore invited a few of his homeboys (and some lingerie models) over to his mansion for a Superbowl party on Sunday....and it looks like things got scandalous.   TMZ copped these pics:

The theme of the party was simple....and posted out back. "What happened at Shemar's house NEVER HAPPENED ... Let's Get It In!"

So according to the theme......

Shemar NEVER hooked up with this chick!

And these people were not there either!

Really Shemar?

And at a nail salon in LA:

 
Ciara was seen leaving out with her two of her dogs in their Louis Vuitton carrier yesterday.  And looked cute and casual in jeans and a red tee:
 

She recently dished about past missteps in her career saying,

"I've been able to make mistakes in front of my fans. It's kind of fun to be able to learn as I grow and to know that my fans are growing with me. I feel so much good energy.  At this point it's important for me to be the best businesswoman I can be. I really want to build my empire. I look at things completely different than I would have with my first album. I've learned so much, it's actually exciting. I feel like there is so much I can do. So much I can accomplish."

She took her cap off before loading into her truck.  And clearly wasn't happy to see the paps. 

Ciara will soon hit the big screen in the Adam Sandler flick That's My Boy.

Like father like son!  Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade threw a big fabulous 10th birthday party for his oldest son Zaire.  And how else would an NBA champ and 8-time All-Star celebrate his sport-loving offspring's big day?  With a sporty football & basketball bash that'll make all his classmates jealous.

 

Exclusive pics and deets inside...

It pays to have an NBA star for a dad.  When Zaire's outdoor 10th birthday bash got rained out this week, they moved it inside to his dad's job--the family room and practice court at the American Airlines Arena.

Zaire’s All-Star themed birthday gathering included his closest friends and family--including Dwyane Sr. (Dwyane’s Dad), Jolinda Wade (Dwyane’s Mom), Dada (Dwyane’s nephew), Tragil Wade (Dwyane’s Sister), and Zaire's 4-and-a-half-old brother Zion

The 50 boys and girls rocked a game of flag football--officiated by D-Wade's former NFL friends Patrick Surtain, Sam Madison, Oronde Gadsden, and Daryl Porter.

The kiddies copped personalized football jerseys, towels and basketball jerseys with "Zaire's 10th Birthday" stitched on the front after their b-ball game.  The games even kicked off with someone singing the national anthem and 40 cheerleaders cheered from the sidelines and did half time shows for both events.

Later, the birthday boy was presented with an amazing basketball and football themed birthday cake.

And if that wasn't enough, the doting dad surprised Zaire with tickets to the Miami HEAT game on Tuesday night with his favorite group, Mindless Behavior. Oh to be a 10-year-old boy...

Happy Birthday Zaire!

In the upcoming Spring Issue of Paper magazine, Nicki Minaj ditched her usual pink barbie-tastic hair for a green version that just screams Easter.  Check out the pics and highlights of her interview with the mag with creative ambassador-at-large of Barneys New York, Simon Doonan.....

Well this was revealing,  In her new spread with PAPER magazine, Nicki revealed that she the wore nothing but a pink tee and a pink thong during the interview, her track "Dance (A$$)" with Big Sean is her freakiest track on her iPod, and her fave reality shows are "Mob Wives," and Real Housewives of ATL & Beverly Hills. (Yes, she's just as confused as to WHAT Big Ange is exactly.)

Here's a few other highlights (more pics below):

On handling her fame:
“Success came and now that so many eyes are on me, I feel I have to deliver. And it’s a business. No joke. I guess I am stressing more than I should be, and I think I am becoming more guarded.”

On sitting next to Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour at New York Fashion Week:
“I was screaming out loud inside my head. Me sitting next to the Queen of Vogue! It was such a strange experience. I felt like I was dreaming. And I thought she would be snobby or something. But she was so incredibly sweet to me.”

On the new album:
“The album is like a collage of all my emotions. I am not sticking to any particular style. I am doing what I feel without restrictions. So it’s very free and very me.”

The funniest part of the interview:

SD: Speaking of which, are you following the presidential race? Do you know what a Santorum is?

NM: What is a what?

Oh Nicki...

Chris Draft Opens Up About Losing Wife Keasha To Cancer, Sends Valentine's Message To Her

0
0

Previously, we told you about the amazing love story of former NFLer Chris Draft who lost his beloved wife Lakeasha (Keasha) Rutledge (of one month)  to lung cancer.  Now, Chris is opening up about her life, their love and sharing memories of Keasha.  Read more inside........

 

Chris Draft recently spoke to ESSENCE about the love of his life, professional cheerleader Keasha Rutledge, who passed away one month after their marriage from lung cancer.  

Keasha, a healthy non-smoker, had been diagnosed a year before her death and it seemingly came out of nowhere.  Chris recently shared what the couple’s last year together was like and how Keasha would have wanted to be remembered.

ESSENCE.COM: Since your wife’s passing, you’ve shown such strength and shared so much of her life with the world. Why did you choose to share her story in this way?
CHRIS DRAFT: We put the pictures up [online] so people could really see the life in her, not just how she passed away. We want people to see that her faith allowed her to live before her diagnosis, and to continue to live with it, and find the joy in each day. Even when you get bad news, you have to find the joy in life, which is definitely not easy. Most of the pictures in the montage people have seen are from the past year. She was still enjoying her friends, and still enjoying her family. Yes, it was a little different with cancer being there, but at the same time, you find a way to enjoy it. That’s where you’re at, you know?

ESSENCE: You both stayed positive throughout her battle. How were you able to do that, after learning of her diagnosis?
DRAFT: It was never, "Oh, I’m just going to smile through it." Keasha was like, “I’m going to fight. We’re going to do what we have to do to go after this.” Stage 4 lung cancer is not a good diagnosis. I mean, the numbers are horrible, and to get that news without even having a sign beforehand, makes it that much tougher. She knew she had great friends, and great family, and a great support system, and she said, “Okay, so what do I have to do to fight? We’re going to fight it each and every day.” Getting the full diagnosis, and knowing exactly what we were fighting, was a very hard process. She did such a great job of really looking at it like, "Hey, I have to do this in order to have a chance to be better." She stuck with that and continued to smile, even after she went to appointment after appointment.

ESSENCE: Was your wedding day everything you dreamed it would be? You both looked so happy in your video.
DRAFT: I wanted her to just be able to really enjoy it. That was my only focus. She was able to get up. She was able to walk. She was able to dance. Dancing was just her. Her 88-year-old grandmother got up at our wedding and she started dancing, and she got Keasha back up and she started dancing too. The weather was perfect. It was 70 degrees on Thanksgiving weekend – wow. It seemed like everything just worked itself out for her. It was so beautiful. Her friends and family were all able to be there. It was a good day -- a good weekend.

ESSENCE: If you could send out a message to Keasha this Valentine’s Day, what would you want her to know?
DRAFT: [Long pause.] Keasha, I‘ll always love you. We’re gonna keep fighting. We’re gonna keep fighting! We’re gonna keep inspiring people and help to change people’s lives, I promise.

ESSENCE: How would she want you to live your life and honor her legacy?
DRAFT: She wanted to be an inspiration to other people. She really wanted to try to make sure that people saw her for who she was and to see a woman with a beautiful spirit. I have to finish making sure everything is in order as I move forward. She would want me to be happy, to smile, and to move forward and stay close with her family and friends. That’s what I’m doing.

ESSENCE: What's next for Team Draft?
DRAFT: Right now, with Team Draft our goal is to change the face of lung cancer. We want people to see that anybody can get lung cancer, and the cure for it is just as critical as breast cancer, or any cancer. We’ve got to find a way to identify it earlier. She was this strong, healthy woman, who was all of a sudden short of breath. Had she caught it during stage 3, instead of 4, it could have really increased her chances of survival. We’re going to celebrate her life and the type of person she was and we want others to grab hold of her spirit and make a difference. There’s no clear answer in terms of what can be done to identify it early enough. Keasha didn’t smoke, she was a dancer, she was fit, and she was healthy. That’s why people need to see faces like hers and continue to be inspired. We want to build an excitement about making a difference. I want to put a picture of Keasha right in front of researchers' faces, so when the doctors and scientists are doing their research, they see her right there smiling, and it can hopefully give them that little extra push. If we could push things ahead, and give someone else another week, it makes a huge difference. Team Draft was launched at our wedding. She wanted to fight. She wanted to stand up. Continuing this allows her to do that.

 

So touching.  Read more over at ESSENCE.

Trey Songz rolled into Cleveland this week for his Anticipation tour stop.  But before he took the stage last night with Big Sean, he was spotted cupcakin' courtside at the Cavs game with a new boo.

Not sure who Trigga's new chick is, but she's causing a Twitter uproar:

The twosome hit up the sidelines of the Cleveland Cavaliers game.  And just like something out of a cheesy romantic movie, he showed her the ins and outs...of the game.  And the two seemed pretty darn happy with each other:

Trey then posted this pic on Instagram of his girl in the back of a car, with legs that are likely his propped on her lap, and said "Flyyyy!"

These are the very first pictures the world has seen of their new bundle of joy, who is hands down the most popular baby on earth right now.

Beyonce posted a link to the Tumblr account from her official site (and Jay posted to his Life+Times site), with simply the word Glory.  And posted this message to their fans on Tumblr:

We Welcome you to share in our joy.

Thank you for respecting

Ray-J Says He Was SEXMATIZED By 'KK," Speaks On Relationship With Whitney

0

Ray-J wants to teach everyone how to have a successful relationship.  So he wrote a book, Death of the Cheating Man: What Every Woman Must Know About Men Who Stray, where he talks about being sexmatized by a certain girl in his past he calls "KK."  And he doesn't leave out both of their infidelities, their lies, and why that type of relationship didn't work. Check out his interview inside...

 

Ray chatted with Kevin Frazier of "The Insider" on why he wrote this book (because he's going through a point of growth in his life and wants to recognize why things happened in his past), his romantic relationship with Whitney Houston (which he tries to not say whether they have a physical intimate relationship), and his addictive relationship with a certain girl he only reveals as "KK."

Now while it's extremely obvious he's talking about his former sex tape partner Kim Kardashian, Ray still tries to say he didn't want the focus to be on the person but the situation--so it could be about "anyone." (Whatevs Ray. We all know damn well who this is.)  Peep the vid above, and the transcript of the parts that matter below:

Kevin Frazier: Tell me about the girl in the book. You say she literally hypnotized you with sex.

Ray-J: Absolutely.  I was hypnotized.  Waking up in the morning with toothpaste already on the toothbrush, a warm towel all ready to go to wash your face.  Just certain different perks of being with a woman like that could really trap you into an emotional world that's hard to get out of.

The relationship with KK ended because we just felt like, you know, were friends and honest with each other.  But as far as our commitment as a one on one relationship, that just wasn't working. 

............

As far as sex, it was intense.  As far as the relationship with KK, it was a roller coaster ride of fun and emotions and infidelity and lies...from both ends.  We were the same person, we lived the same life, we lied the same, we cheated the same.  We were the same person just in different forms.

At the end of the day, it was a clash.

Kevin Frazier: So she knew you were having sex with other people and you knew you were having sex with other people?

Ray: Exactly. And she knew the same.

 

And no, he still won't admit who actually really released that sex tape.  But sexmatized by toothpaste and a washcloth?  Really? Ok.

With her newest album Here I Am declaring her independence and womanhood, some people would say that this was the first year that Kelly Rowland had her own "Diana Ross" moment. Come inside and celebrate Kelly Rowland serving up style and fabulousness in the gallery.

Kelly Rowland played second fiddle to no one this year as she had hit records both in the US and the UK, and raised her own celebrity profile with a stint on the successful UK version of "X Factor."

She was even presented with a plaque, while being honored during last week's ESSENCE's Black Women In Music event, for selling over 1 million units of her single "Motivation."

And with a hot "ab workout" video and an acting career to boot, Kelly declared she's indeed here to stay.  Not to mention, her look channels perfection without even trying.

16-year-old Diggy, who is nominated for an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding New Artist, teamed up with V-103 Atlanta's Ryan Cameron to give a group of school girls the surprise of their life.  Before hitting the stage for his tour sop in Atlanta last night, he rolled into the Coretta Scott King Young Women's Leadership Academy to chat with the girls.  While they lost their minds as expected, they had the chance to ask him a few questions during the auditorium meet and greet.

And whomever actually asked a question, was surprised with tickets to the concert.  Sweet!  Check the video:

By the way, cutie Diggy is fresh off the Scream tour and will be joined by Jacob Latimore, The OMG Girlz, Jawan Harris and rap duo TK-N-Ca$h for the Life of a JetSetter tour.

Unexpected Arrival flies onto shelves March 20th.
