Tami Roman, star of "BBW Miami", has just inked a lucrative distribution deal with Walgreens for her cosmetics line "TR Love." The line features uniquely packaged lip gloss sets named after women whom she admires and will be available in over 400 Walgreens stores nationwide this December! Tami spoke about the Walgreens partnership saying,

"I’m really excited about the lip gloss and nail polish because we just inked a deal with Walgreens so I’m one of the few people who was afforded the opportunity to take a private line into a retail situation."

Some of the women whom Tami has named her lip gloss colors after include Khloe Kardashian, Wendy Williams & Cicely Tyson. Also, a portion of all lip gloss proceeds will be donated to the Akasha Center in Santa Monica, CA in honor of Tami's late mother.

In addition to all of her booming businesses, Tami has also been announced as the newest co-host on VH1's late night talk show "Tiny Tonight!" Viewers can tune into "Tiny Tonight!" this Thursday at 9pm EST/PST on VH1.  We assume subtitles will be in full effect....

New details have emerged about Jay Z and Beyonce allegedly firing their now deceased bodyguard Norman “Dutch Giant” Oosterbroek.....and they're SUPER shocking! Find out what he allegedly did to disgust and frighten the Carters.....

A few days ago, we told you about the tragic death of Norman “Dutch Giant” Oosterbroek, bodyguard of Jay Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga and others, who died after being tasered by Miami-Dade police.  Now, we've learned about the chain of events that led to the deep depression and alleged drug use he'd been battling.  

According to a shocking report in the New York Daily News, Norman sank deep into depression and drug use after he was fired by Jay Z and Beyonce.  So what led to the Carters dismissing a man who protected them so fiercely that he once broke a guys legs? Fasten your damn seatbelts....

A while back, a major print publication approached The Carters with evidence that Norman had hired a prostitute in Las Vegas (while he was on duty guarding them).  If you're wondering what's wrong with a man (in a high-stress job) hiring a hooker in Las Vegas, it gets deeper.   

In additon to news about the hooker, the Carters where allegedly shown photographic & video evidence of Norman using the family's passports in a lewd act! We have no idea what the lewd act was.....but our minds are wondering.....and we're JUST AS DISGUSTED as the Carters.

“Beyoncé and Jay Z were furious when they found out,” said the source. “They trusted Norman with their lives and then he went and did some pretty freaky things, and on video with a hooker. They were outraged.  

“They really thought Norman was now a danger to Blue Ivy....From what I understand he was devastated, because a lot of people in the industry knew that he couldn’t be trusted and not to hire him.”

Needless to say, Bey and Jay no longer wanted Norman around them OR Blue Ivy, so he got the boot. Now we know why we didn't seen him on the most recent vacay with the Carters.

Once news of the firing leaked around the industry, Norman couldn't find a job as a bodyguard because no one trusted him with their bodies....or passports.

For these reasons, sources close to Norman say his firing led to depression and heavy drug use. P.S. he'd already reportedly had a history of rehab visits.

Sad story.....

Funnyman Eddie Murphy and model Paige Butcher were spotted in a warm embrace during their early morning coffee run. See their pics inside....

Comedian Eddie Murphy was seen escorting his girlfriend, model Paige Butcher, out of his Mercedes for their early morning run to Coffee Bean on Tuesday.  But this time they got all cuddled up and didn't care about the cameras.

Following his very brief fling with ET news anchor Rocsi Diaz, Paige has been a constant fixture in Eddie's life since his SPIKE TV tribute last year.   

The two love birds could barely keep their hands off each other while they waited for their coffee to brew.

Once Eddie escorted Paige back to their car, he waved to the photographers as he walked back to his side of the Benz.  And we all know he doesn't love the media.

Meanwhile, Eddie recently shot a tv movie for the USA network based on his hit 1984 flick Beverly Hills Cop.

Antoine Dodson--the famed "Bedroom Intruder" Youtube star who randomly said last year he is no longer gay--is now expecting a baby with his girlfriend.

Deets inside...

After railing & disowning the gay community a few months ago and trying to convince the world he has changed his life and is "no longer gay", Antoine Dodson is about to welcome a brand new baby with his "Queen" as he calls her.

Even though he had plenty of "Christian talk" to back up his reasoning from converting to heterosexuality, he must have skipped the chapter on babies out of wedlock.  It seems as though he and his "Queen" aren't married.  So if you're going to act holier than thou about one thing and rail an entire community because of your "Christian beliefs", you best be that way about everything else too.  But we all know that's never the case....

Anywho, pray-the-gay-away-believer Antoine took to his Facebook & Twitter pages today to say:

I just became the happiest man alive!! My beautiful Queen and I are having a baby!!

Well...congrats.

Singer/fashionista Solange has dropped the latest clip from her True ep, "Lovers In The Parking Lot".  And she's giving us those big curls and that quirky yet flawless fashion sense of hers we've come to love.

Solange is currently splitting her time between Brooklyn and New Orleans as she preps her first full-length album for her own label, SaintsRecords.

Emmy nominee Kerry Washington celebrated her historic nomination at an event hosted by The Academy Of Television Arts & Sciences and SAG-AFTRA yesterday. Come inside and decide if we love Kerry's pink Halston Heritage dress.

Last night, "Scandal" actress Kerry Washington (shown above with co-star Joe Morton) was among the honorees at a pre-Emmy reception hosted Tuesday night by the television academy and the SAG-AFTRA actors union at the academy's headquarters in North Hollywood.

For the evening, "Pretty In Pink" Kerry selected a Halston Heritage Pink Ruffle Dress which she paired with a Nancy Gonzalez Croc Curve Razor Clutch and white pumps.  SIDEBAR:  Some folks are putting the newlywed on "baby bump" watch as they've noticed that her face is fuller and her choice of red carpet attire (lately) seems to draw attention away from the tummy area. 

Kerry, who is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in her role as Olivia Pope, is the first black actress to be nominated in the category since Cicely Tyson got a nod in 1995 for "Sweet Justice."  Nice!

While trying to decide if you love the dress, note that Kerry was JUST chosen by PEOPLE Magazine as the World's Best Dressed Woman. So.....

DO WE LOVE IT?

BRAVO has released a sneak peak at season six of RHOA and it looks like Porsha 2.0 will be one of the highlights. See Phaedra, Kandi, Nene, Kenya, and Cynthia inside.....

The sixth season of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” kicks off BRAVO's November premieres on Sunday, November 3 at 8pm ET/PT with an interesting mix of storylines. According to the press release:

"...NeNe relishes being Gregg's new wife again and settles back into Atlanta after a year of living in Hollywood. Recently engaged Kandi attempts to get closer to the altar with fiancé Todd, but faces unexpected roadblocks along the way. She also adds to her growing entertainment empire by producing her first ever musical production, a project which brings all of the ladies together in very surprising ways. Soon-to-be-divorced housewife, Porsha, faces major setbacks in her life, yet continues to fight valiantly to get back on top.

Meanwhile, Kenya battles her landlord over an impending eviction and delves into her family's history, hoping to unlock the secrets from her childhood. Always on the go, Cynthia faces challenges of raising a teen daughter and is surprised by others that are not supportive of her choices. Phaedra resists slowing down with baby number two and studies nonstop to get her mortician’s license while supervising Apollo as he tackles remodeling their new home. The stress on their marriage shows when Apollo’s opinion isn't always aligned with his whirlwind wife’s ideas."

What stands out most is the transformation of Porsha, whom we'll call Porsha 2.0. Since first season, Porsha has mastered the art of "shade". During her confessional, she looks at the camera and says "Kordell didn't want me physically", then she POLITELY goes on to question exactly "what does he want?". Well done Miss Stewart! You don't need to raise questions about Kordell's sexuality....we'll do it for you.

In other Porsha 2.0 news, she gave her advice on looking finding Mr. Right (now that she knows exactly how to spot Mr. Wrong) in the October issue of Sister 2 Sister:

“I think a woman should look for a man who they feel they can trust and who has their best interest at heart. The way that you’ll know if a man is equally yoked to you is if your purpose in life is aligned with his,” she said. “A lot of people get married and don’t know what their purpose is. Because a lot of people don’t know how to be still, stop their thoughts, stop their wants, and try to listen to hear what God wants them to do, and once He tells you what He wants for your life, you have to trust that and move on it.”

Pick up the latest issue of S2S now.  And watch the new trailer of "RHOA" season 6 here:

The new season of R"eal Housewives of Atlanta” premieres on Sunday, November 3 at 8pm ET/PT on BRAVO.

Footage from the controversial Marvin Gaye biopic Sexual Healing starring Jesse L. Martin has been released to the public.  Watch 4-mins from the film inside and listen to Lil' Mo's "Ls UP" single.....

Four minutes of footage from the promo reel of Julien Temple’s Marvin Gaye biopic, Sexual Healing, starring Jesse L. Martin (as Gaye), S. Epatha Merkerson (as Marvin’s Gaye’s mother, Alberta Cooper Gay), and Dwight Henry (as Marvin Gaye’s father, Marvin Gay, Sr.) have been leaked online.

According to Shadow And Act, the film has an "anticipated" release date of April 1, 2014, but there's been a few bumps in the road for the film (which is only at 70% completion).  But can we discuss how Jesse became almost a spitting image of the singer?

If the reports are correct, we hope the director is able to secure additional funding and another distributor because Jesse looks SEXY.  In case you don't remember, Lenny Kravtiz was originally slated to play the slain singer but he backed out due to pressure from the Gaye family.

The film focuses on Marvin's recording of the Midnight Love album (while he was heavily into drugsand living in Belgium).

And in new music.....

Singer Lil’ Mo, who became the breakout star of "R&B Divas LA", battles her alter ego/inner self on her latest single, "Ls UP".  Her government name is Cynthia Loving, Jr.  So she made this track, featuring her real self.

She talked about the song's message in a recent interview for AlwaysAList saying,

“‘L’s Up’ main message is that one of the biggest battles I’ve struggled within, is I seek to do good, and the enemy is always in my space. Sometimes the biggest enemy was myself. So I turned it. Now when I feel I’m down to my last, throw my ‘L’ up. Love myself. I will not lose!”

Listen to the single here:

Drake isn't letting the leak of his Nothing Was The Same album this week get him down.  He's still on full on promo mode, and he even took time to donate his cash to a family that just suffered a horrible tragedy.

Details inside...

Before its official September 24th release, Drake is taking his promo tour to all 5 Boroughs of New York.  Yep, the king of Emo rap is doing a full NY takeover for the fans, and is handing out tix to his concert at Barclay's to one lucky one.

He's calling it "Something For the Fans...", and Drizzy is hitting 5 boroughs to do in-store listening events.  Despite the big leak, he's still letting fans preview the entire new album and cop a meet and greet opportunity with him.  Nice.

And as for the latest sweet thing Drizzy's done...nope, it's not writing bars for the latest chick that broke his heart.  He actually teamed up with his homie The Game to give $22,500 to a woman who just lost her entire family in a tragic fire:

He IG'd the above pic showing Anna Angel with her boyfriend and 5 kids--all of whom she recently lost in a fatal mobile home fire in Tiffin, OH.  Anna was at work when she received the call that her entire family died from smoke inhalation, according to the Toledo Blade.

Game wrote, "I can deal with a lot of things but people losing their children is something that kills me every time." 

He said the money would be used so "Ms. Angel can afford the funeral costs for her 5 children & boyfriend as well as a point A to B vehicle."

Game and Drake decided to split the donation, which came to a total of over $20K.  Such a sad story, and we love seeing rappers being do gooders and giving back where they can.

And even though it's work...it's a whole lot of play too.  She did say at her recent press conference that performing to Brazil is like a vacay for her, her husband Jay-Z and their daughter Blue.

And we can tell.  It seems the Carters are spending their days on the beach and playing with kids in different cities, then Bey rocks the stage at night.

By the way, E! reports the fam dropped $65,000 for 10 days in an 18-bedroom mansion by the beach in Trancoso, Bahia.  And they're using it as home base during this leg of the tour.  Nice!

And she's got sexy Brazilian-inspired pics to boot.

Justin Timberlake is giving folks another peek at Part 2 of his The 20/20 Experience album.  Check out the upbeat "TKO" inside, plus Mary J. Blige is bringing in the Holidays early with "This Christmas"....

As JT prepares to release Part 2 of The 20/20 Experience on September 30th, he giving you something to hold you over until then.  His brand new track "TKO" is his throwback Timbaland sound, since Timbo produced this whole Part 2 album.

Justin told Ryan Seacrest in a recent interview that the songs he's releasing now are a bit darker than the songs he released over the summer. And he's giving fabs a major preview during the iHeartRadio concert this weekend in Vegas.

"I have not put the set list together yet because, as you know, I procrastinate on things like that," he said, "but we are looking at playing some new material from the second half of this record. So I'm excited for people to hear it."

Nice.  Check out "TKO" below:

In the October 14th issue of JET magazine, Chris Brown opens up about a variety of topics, including his relationships with Rihanna and Karrueche Tran, why he doesn't understand how Jay-Z gets a pass, the media and how he relates to Trayvon Martin.

TheYBF.com has the very first look inside...

It's easy to see where the 24-year-old is coming from, but it's just as easy to see his anger & perspective as a typical famous 20-something who doesn't quite get the bigger picture (or his responsibility in it)...yet.  Maybe we'll see more growth on his upcoming sixth studio album, X, scheduled for a November 2013 release.

We've got a few highlights from Datwon Thomas' JET magazine cover story with Mr. Breezy.  Check 'em below:

On his beef with the media

“The media is full of yellow journalism. A lot of things I say, they will flip it. Instead of them getting off on all the positive stuff that I do, they will bring out the negative and draw out that story.”

On his beef with Jay-Z

“No disrespect, because I’m a fan, but nobody brings up the fact that [Jay Z] stabbed somebody and sold drugs. He gets a pass.”

On Trayvon Martin

“I identify with Trayvon 100 percent as far as living in 2013 and still dealing with blatant racism. This generation is so used to racism that it’s normal; we don’t care. We aren’t on drugs or catching AIDS, but they still look at us as ni**as.”

On controlling his anger issues

“You have to go through the struggle before you can get to the good part. I don’t try to lash out at people, or be as mad or impulsive as I used to be.  I got to the point where it’s only so much you can take from the master, you feel me? I’ve taken my fair share of lashings.”

On his relationships with Karrueche Tran & Rihanna

"Relationships are the most difficult part. That’s why I was honest with those two girls and I put out that video. My ex and I broke up because of the “situation” and she had moved on. I fell in love with another girl. Then my ex came back, so it was like, 'What is a man to do?'  I told them both the truth. I didn’t do the sucker role." 

Chris also reveals in the issue if he calls himself "single", and whether he prefers just or woman to hold him down...or does he need several?

The issue hits newsstands on September 23.

Former NBC Sports personality Tiki Barber appears on an upcoming episode of Bethenny (airing next Tuesday) where he and his mistress-turned-wife Traci Johnson (a former NBC intern) revealed that they are expecting their first child in December.  Tiki rubbed her bump while telling the audience.

You may recall that Traci BEGAN her relationship with Tiki around the time his then-wife, Ginny Barber, was 8-months pregnant with twins (or at least that's how far along she was when he walked out the door).  Tiki and Traci went on to marry eight days after his divorce from Ginny (the mother of his four children) was finalized.  Classy dude.

In the latest issue of ROLLING OUT, one of our absolute fave fab chicks Jill Scott talks about love and infuation, the difficulties of raising a son and comments on how American media protrays Blacks.  See the highlights inside and check out her commentary on racism.....

Baggage Claim star Jill Scott covers the latest issue of ROLLING OUT where she reveals her thoughts about how reality tv and its impact on the worldwide perception of Black Americans.  And we can't help but agree with her on that one. 

Here are the highlights:

On raising her 4-year-old son Jett:

“There are some things I have to instill in him as we move along. I need him to be a thinker. I don’t believe we have to make ourselves fit into someone’s comfortable space. This is a real world and we are real people. Compassion for other people counts. You have to think about your surroundings — with the world, not just America. Be mindful of where you are, and I hate to say it, but be on guard. That burns me up that I have to think about my own protection. It’s a part of where we are, where we have always been. It’s just open now. I prefer [racism] to be open and in my face. At least I know what I’m dealing with. We all know what we’re dealing with.”

On negative portrayals of Blacks in the media:

“If I’m in another country and all I see [are] McDonald’s commercials, why wouldn’t I think that’s what America is?” she says rhetorically. “When the representation of an entire people is based on fictitious reality shows, it builds a certain box of who and what we are. To be perfectly frank, we’ve got the wives of doctors fighting in ball gowns. The television and the Internet are creating boxes for us and I believe we are starting to fall for it. Why wouldn’t everybody else? [There] has to be a balance. We’re not so simple. I think that’s a big part of the problem. You can’t expect someone to think differently if they are only shown a specific image. Unfortunately, it’s a tarnished image.”
 

On her ideals of love vs. infatuation:

Love is hard. Finding someone to fall in love with is the hardest part of all. Infatuation is easy. We get caught up in someone’s looks, or their money, but not the person. Or, we’re into someone for a couple of months and then the novelty fades and we’re on to the next. Love is bigger than just the emotion for the moment. Love requires patience. It requires communication. It requires and demands mutual respect and understanding. In this quick-paced world, we want immediate gratification. Our idea of love and having that is great, but the immediate gratification of having it all is what most people are after in this microwavable world. That’s what makes it such a challenge. We have to change our mentality if we want relationships that will last. Finding someone or meeting someone who is equally yoked — that’s major. Not just financially, but someone who is willing to participate with you in life and love. All of those things are what I was told to look for.”

Effortless gorge.  Watch Jill discuss racism in America with Rolling Out here.

BONUS:

Jill Scott also dropped by The Breakfast Club where she talked about working on two new albums (including a disc of lullabies), her comedic role in "Baggage Claim” (Sept. 27th), and revealed that she had a run-in with fellow diva Anita Baker. Though she didn't go into detail, she hinted that she didn't appreciate Ms. Baker's attitude.

Ms. Philly also sang the praises of Philly-native Meek Mill, but cautioned about the traps of success and how his style of rap has changed.

“He’s been dope for a long time and I wish him luck, and success, and focus. It’s hard to transition from being the underdog and not being noticed to being noticed everywhere.”

Cleveland Cavs baller Daniel "Boobie" Gibson confirmed on Twitter that he and wife Keyshia Cole aren't on the best of terms, after the twosome were caught sending subliminal "beef" messages toward each other on IG.  Hear what he has to say inside.....

Although R&B singer Keyshia Cole made amends with Michelle Williams on Twitter, it looks like her next Twitter beef might be with her own husband!  

Earlier this week Keyshia tweeted a pic about her feelings being cut on, and said, "Sometimes u can get pushed to your limit."

Boobie tweeted a pic that said,"If you could start over with one person in the world, who would it be?  What would you do different?"

Folks caught on and starting asking if they were on the rocks.

Daniel (shown above in a recent Instagram pic captioned "Home is where my Heart is") just confirmed that the couple is going through a rough patch.

During the tweets, Daniel also confirmed that a certain "site" is spreading rumors that he has cheated on KC.  We're not sure if the cheating rumors are the biggest issues between the couple, but clearly, there's trouble in paradise.

Over on her Timeline, KC addressed the marital discord by retweeting all of Daniel's tweets and also added a "SMDH" retweet at a fan who hoped for the end of her relationship.

Of course, fans always joke that singers like Mary J. Blige and Keyshia Cole make great music when they're in pain, but isn't it a little shady to "hope" for someone's to break up? 

Yet and still, not many would be surprised if a split did occur after watching Keyshia's interaction with her husband on their recent BET reality show.
