So, this is what Coolio's head looked like last night as he performed a Bouji's nightclub in London.  Is it about time to just let it go?  Decide inside....

We've been rolling with Coolio since before the "Gangster's Paradise" days.  But that was before we knew what was really under those hats:

Last night in London, Coolio took the mic to perform his hits, we assume.  And just when we thought he would be cutting this double sprout look off some time soon to just do something different, it doesn't look like it's happening anytime soon.

Maybe next year for his 51st birthday....

Jay Z is prepping for the holiday season with a new partnership with Barney's.  Get the deets inside and see what Samuel Jackson had to say about Barack Obama acting "more presidential" and kick the butts of Republicans.  

Previoulsy we told you that Jay Z was teaming up with Barney's Barneys New York for the Holidays, and now we've got the first look at their new collaboration. The luxury department store recently revealed their new logo and Jay's rep tweeted"#BNYSCC !!!!! PROUD to announce the collaboration between Shawn"JAY Z" Carter and BARNEYS NEW YORK !!!! 1 year in the making !!!!" 

We'll keep you posted about the items the two have created together....

In "WTF" news......

In the October 2013 issue of PLAYBOY Magazine, (because this is the perfect place for this type of discussion...) Samuel Jackson accuses President Obama of trying too hard to "relate" Americans and being "too safe".  

The magazine asked Sam him to speak about politicians who seem to "dumb" themselves down to appear more relatable to voters.  Samuel accuses President Obama of doing this and asks, "How the fuck did we become a society where mediocrity is acceptable?"

Yes, Sam is saying some things that may quickly come up in our own thoughts, but dude actually says it.

Here we go....

PLAYBOY: Or a society that views graduating from college or grad school as elitist, or one in which President Obama or other highly educated Americans consciously drop gs off the ends of words to sound like Joe Average?

JACKSON: First of all, we know it ain’t because of his blackness, so I say stop trying to “relate.” Be a leader. Be fucking presidential. Look, I grew up in a society where I could say “It ain’t” or “What it be” to my friends. But when I’m out presenting myself to the world as me, who graduated from college, who had family who cared about me, who has a well-read background, I fucking conjugate.

PLAYBOY: With your and your wife’s militant revolutionary background, how political are you today, especially having told Ebony magazine in 2012 that you wanted President Obama to “get scary”?

JACKSON: He got a little heated about the kids getting killed in Newtown and about the gun law. He’s still a safe dude. But with those Republicans, we’re now in a situation where even if he said, “I want to give you motherfuckers a raise,” they’d go, “Fuck you! We don’t want a raise!” I don’t know how we fix this bullshit. How do we fix the fact that politicians aren’t trying to serve the people, they’re just trying to serve their party and their closed ideals? How do we find a way to say, “You motherfuckers are fired because you’re not doing shit about taking care of the country”?

Samuel closed by co-singing on Hillary Clinton's potential bid for the presidency as he feels she'd kick a lot of ass.  

If Hillary Clinton decides to run, she’s going to kick their fucking asses, and those motherfuckers would rather see the country go down in flames than let the times change. But as I tell my daughter, there was a time we would be in the streets about this shit.

Oh Sam.

It was one haute date night earlier this week for The Stoudemires & The Hills, along with Tyra Banks' ex John Utendahl and his date for the night.  Check out the YBF folks keeping it fabulous at one of New York's biggest social events of the season--opening night of the MET Opera....

NY Knicks baller Amar'e Stoudemire & his wife Alexis looked stunning as they headed out to the Lincoln Center Plaza for date night.  And what better NYC date night than opening night at the Metropolitan Opera.

Alexis looked gorgeous in a black strapless haute couture Giambattista Valli gown, Lorraine Schwartz jewels and Nicholas Kirkwood custom shoes.  And the mom of four rocked the look flawlessly.

The Stoudemires attended with the newly retired (and the new co-host of NBA TV's returning show "NBA Inside Stuff") Grant Hill and his stunner of a wife, singer Tamia.

She rocked a sexy one shoulder nude & black Zuhair Murad gown for the big night.

And remember Tyra Banks' hot banker ex John Utendahl?  He brought his grown daughter, Madison, along as his date.  And as Vice Chairman of Deutsche Bank Americas, he also served as the host of the evening.

Madison rocked a sheer and black number by Gabriela Cadena.

And the next morning, Tuesday, Alexis was spotted taking her youngest kiddie out for a walk around the neighborhood.  Cute.

TV personality Christina Milian, who's been turning heads as one of the break-out talents on "DWTS", celebrated her 32nd birthday with a huge bash at the Supperclub in LA last night.

Christina and her partner Mark Ballas heated up the small screen last night with the Paso Doble.  And then she headed over to her big b-day party.

Singer and former "DWTS" contestant Mario came out to party with Christina.

DMX's "therapy" session with Dr. Phil aired today.  And we have the interesting things we learned from it inside...

Dark Man X had a sit down with Dr. Phil on his talk show.  X says he's been "sober" for a year--and we learned "sober" for DMX means he's stopped all drugs EXCEPT weed and alcohol--and he did seem more cognizant and more "himself" than that doomed Iyanla Vanzant interview.

A few notable things X revealed:

1.  Dude has 11 children with 6 different women--and he has a 12th on the way!

While X told Dr. Phil he thinks it's OK to keep having all these kids as long as he can care for them and spend time with them, he also admitted he's over $1 mill behind in child support.  And he says it's because he was once making $13 mill, a year and the child support demands were based on that.  Alrighty.

2.  A family member gave DMX marijuana at age 8.

"I don't know why.  At 19 [I had a drug problem].  I'm always going to have a drug problem.  I don't have to get high.  I smoke weed, I drink, yes.  And one day that will be gone.  My faith is in God but he's not going to remove it all at once.  I'm taking steps and taking steps with him to get where I need to be."

3.  The rapper has been arrested 25 times...since 1994!

He said, "Whatever's happened, it was supposed to happen."

4.  He ran bucked naked in that Detroit hotel strictly because of a bet.

"It was a bet, it was a dare.  And I did it. The dare was order room service, then run through the hallway naked.  I said, 'I'll do that.'"

5.  He doesn't regret ANYTHING....and we mean ANYTHING.

When asked about what he feels his biggest mistakes were, he said, "I wouldn't redo anything.  It got me right here where I am right now.  I'm in a good place.  No regrets."

6.  He went on "Couple's Rehab" simply to appease his now ex-wife

X revealed he and ex-wife Tashera Simmons were not attempting to get back together when they went on VH1's "Couple's Rehab" recently.  Tashera said she had some things to get off her chest, so he agreed to go on with her.

Peep part of the interview below:

VH1 finally copped a couple new cast members for season 3 of "Basketball Wives: LA".  Check out who vet Jackie Christie was spotted wining and dining with inside....

The "BBW: LA" cameras are currently rolling, and Jackie Christie was spotted filming with two newbies at Toast in Hollywood yesterday.

While everyone surrounding the show is remaining mum on who exactly they are, we've figured out that one newbie is Brandi Maxiell (she looks to be  the woman in the middle).

She's the wife of NBA player Jason Maxiell, who currently plays for the Orlando Magic, and she's one of Malaysia's best friends (pictured above shopping with Malaysia and Draya a few weeks ago).

We actually featured the couple's tear jerker of a wedding back in 2009 as Jason stuck through his wife as she battled ovarian cancer.

We do know Gloria & Laura Govan will not be returning.  And Brooke Bailey said she won't be either.  So that leaves Jackie, Malaysia, Draya and the newbies.

Time will tell...

Rihanna's stylist Yusef Williams is speaking out against claims that Rihanna is a cyber bully. See what he said inside and see why friends are claiming Lamar Odom never slammed his father on Twitter and what folks ae saying about his "alleged" crack binge.  

Rihanna's stylist Yusef Williams (aka the man underneath the wig and snapback) is speaking out on behalf of his viral video that sparked a fight between Rihanna and Teyana Taylor.  In a statement to EnStars, Yusef praised Teyana's singing voice and explained how he ended up in that wig!  

"Honestly, I just finished making the wig. I started making the video. It was amazing, no malicious intent towards Teyana. I just think it was uncalled for. Teyana killed that song."

He went on to defend Rihanna by saying she isn't a cyber bully and doesn't have time to go back and forth with Teyana.

"She [Rihanna] could care less. It was funny. Thats whats so funny. It wasn't like that. She doesn't care., that's her personality. "

He continued.....

"Cyber bully is harsh word. She is focused, being Rihanna. She is not sitting around. She didn't grab her phone. She is the most kind and giving person. I just think for that to go the way it went, it was uncalled for."

Before he closed, Yusef did throw a slight jab at Teyana.  He said that the Twitter war actually worked in her favor because she has a new album coming out.

"It turned into this big drama, but I guess it was all good at the end of the day to help with her new album. A little publicity doesn't hurt good or bad these days."

Yusef....throwing shade?

In other news.....

Friends of Lamar Odom are saying that he did not write the tweet that slammed his father as deadbeat!  While we were a little suspicious of the articulate tweet too (mainly because it painted the Kardashians in a glowing light), friends of the former NBA baller told TMZ that Lamar doesn't have internet access and was unaware that his father had done an interview.  

TMZ's sources report that Lamar "is unbelievably paranoid about anyone knowing his whereabouts by tapping his phone. He has a 15-second rule in the house -- no one can be on his phone for longer than that. "

(UPDATE )

There are now more details about Lamar's whereabouts and what he's been up to.  TMZ is now reporting that Lamar is on a crack binge with two young women in a private home 100 miles outside of L.A.

Multiple sources told TMZ that Lamar's driver shuttles back and forth with small quantities of drugs (including crack).  Also, the sources claim Lamar is "paranoid" about being watched and has installed a phone app that deletes his texts once they are read. The app also notifies him if the recipient tries to screenshot the message.

So where does Khoe fit into all of this? The "sources" are saying Lamar believes she will stick by him. SMH....

Bachelor Senator Cory Booker has been "Senator" for New Jersey for only two weeks, and wasted no time landing a girlfriend.  And if there's one way to squash "gay" rumors or "stripper" rumors before you start a Presidential campaign....that way is to nab a "good girl" as your significant other.

Meet Mr. Booker's new boo inside...

Cory Booker's reported new girlfriend 36-year-old entertainment lawyer Bianca Levin.  Not just entertainment lawyer, but a PARTNER (which she made at 29) at one of the most prestigious entertainment law firms in the country, Gang Tyre Ramer & Brown.  Her client roster includes Dwyane "The Rock" Johnson, Twilight's Ashley Greene and more.

The pretty gal is a D.C. native, grew up in New York and is well educated (Yale undergrad & Yale Law).

According to Page Six, the twosome have been dating for a few months.  And she also held a fundraiser for Cory in West Hollywood during his Senate campaign.

And Judy Smith must have schooled her she must have known all eyes would be on her the minute this story broke....because most of her social media platforms are "private".

A few interesting tidbits about Ms. Levin: She was a child actress while living in New York until she decided she wanted to be a lawyer at 14.  And she was named one of Hollywood Reporter's fastest rising stars in 2011.

Of course, reps for Senator Booker say they "don't comment on their client's personal life."  And that's why they tend to send it to the gossip pages....like Page Six....to comment for them.  Mmhmmm.

Clearly Senator Booker is prepping for his future Presidential run and taking a page out of President Obama's book with his choice in a significant other who will be on his arm.  And we're not necessarily mad at it.  Well played sir...

The Randomness:

1.  LaLa Anthony has signed on to co-star in the Starz series "Power" alongside Naturi Naughton and others.  STORY

"The Best Man Holiday" star Sanaa Lathan posed for a ROLLING OUT shoot that played on her "sexy" side.  Which obviously...is ALL her sides.  See the spread inside and pics of Idris Elba and Naomie Harris at their latest Mandela screening....

In the latest issue of ROLLING OUT, the sickeningly gorge Sanaa Lathan opens up about the challenges of playing a pregnant woman on camera and reveals why she's join Instagram and become more transparent with her fans.  Also, Ms. Lathan reveals her playful side and discuss how being a Virgo affects her lifestyle.  Here are the highlights:

Why doesn’t the public know more about this fun, lighthearted side of you?

Because I’m kind of a private person outside of my film and TV work, so people mainly just see me as those characters.

Recently, you’ve opened up a bit more and really gravitated toward Instagram.

Well, this is definitely a new thing for me. I was very resistant to social media at first, and actually just a couple months ago when I was on [The Best Man Holiday] set, I started having fun with it. At first, it was just a creative thing for me, and then I got encouraged by everyone from my agent to the studios, to keep it up. It’s really interesting to me how involved social media can be from a business perspective, so I’m interested in exploring where it can go as it relates to my career.

I actually saw you on set, and it didn’t look like it was an enjoyable experience for you. How was it playing a pregnant woman for this movie?

It was really hard. They created a real prosthetic, where they molded the belly and made it very real for me. I had to wear it every day, and it was like a personal sauna. So, I feel like I was experiencing some of the problems that a real pregnant woman would feel, because I was dying of heat the entire time, and always needed a personal fan. I honestly think it helped me be more believable as a pregnant woman.

Talk about your downtime.

You know, I go through phases. I have really social periods where I have to be around lots of friends, and go out … I love the club, loud music, and the energy of the nightlife. But then I go through periods where I’m literally a hermit. I’m a Virgo, and they call the Virgo the hermit, so I’m just by myself, and I read and lay in bed all day, and retreat inward. So you know, it swings with me, and really just depends on how I’m feeling.

What are some other characteristics about Virgos that apply directly to you?

Well, Virgos are very down-to-earth. She’s an earth mother, and is also very picky. So I’m very picky, and I’m a perfectionist to a fault. I’m also very critical … but Virgos tend to be very critical of others, and of the people around them — especially people that they love. But in the end, they’re really the most critical of themselves, which pretty much sums me up.

Tell us one thing about you the average person wouldn’t know.

I just don’t feel like people know that I really like to be silly and have fun. I think that some people look at me like I’m a very serious kind of person. Honestly, I don’t know how people perceive me, but …

 

Read the full interview here and check out the rest of Sanaa's DeWayne Rogers shoot (hair by Kim Kimble):

Loves it.  The Best Man Holiday opens in theaters this Friday.

Also at the movies.....

Earlier this week, Idris Elba, Naomie Harris and Justin Chadwick attended The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences Members Only Screening of Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom in the Academy Theater at Lighthouse International.

Following the screening, the trio appeared at a Q-n-A moderated by Patrick Harrison.

Idris has been heavily promoting the film (hitting theaters November 29th) at screenings all around the world.  He recently showed the film to President Obama, adding "I felt very proud to play the character and be able to present it to Barack, who loves to watch films. And he has said to me in the past, “You’re one of my favorite actors.” Which is a great, great compliment."

He hit up "Live with Kelly & Michael" today and looked a bit tired.  But still fine.  Get some rest Idris!

Chris Brown has checked out of rehab a few months early to start his community service! Get the deets isndie...

You may recall that sixteen days ago, Chris Brown checked himself into an anger management rehab program in Malibu to help soften his image after a fight in Washington, DC landed him in jail.  Well.....he's out!

We were hoping his lawyer Mark Geragos would report that Chris had crammed all 3-months of his expected stay into 16-power packed days and night; but, the legal eagle told TMZ that Chris actually left the program "early" to start his community service.  He's now "expected" to finish treatment in an outpatient program.  Hmmm....we'll see if that happens.

A rep told Radar Online, “Chris is continuing his rehab program as an outpatient and is also completing his community service in the Los Angeles area. He appreciates all of your encouragement and support.”

Let's hope Chris REALLY does continue treatment and that no one crosses his bad side in the meantime.   

Kerry Washington stopped by "ELLEN" this week where she gave the inside scoop on how "Scandal" writers create those intriguing storylines!  Watch the clip inside...

Kerry Washington, who recently revealing her pregnancy, stopped by "ELLEN" this week in a gorgeous floral Shoshanna dress that showed off her baby bump....by simultaneously disguising it.  During their fun segment, Ellen joked about the hundreds of magazine covers that Kerry is on this month including, Knitting Weekly, Chess Masters and Kale Quarterly (holding up mock covers of the fake magazines).

Kerry--who was gifted a director's chair for her doggie Josie--played along saying, "Kale is really good for you...Listen you know I'm a Lady Gaga fan, so when she did the meat dress I said I would do the kale dress."

Kerry said her mom is in charge of archiving all of her covers.  "I put her in charge of all of that because like early on I figured, well you know, I might have a grandchild one day who wants to see this stuff, but I don't want to live with this stuff in my house. So I send it all to my mother and she archives it. She gets to be proud."

Ellen also asked Kerry to explain how the writers come up with their storylines and if things like "the hole" are "real."  Kerry applauded the writers and said, "I do think the show is based on their imagination more than real life, but often when we talk to people from Washington they say "Oh yea....a lot of that looks familiar".

Watch Kerry dish on "Scandal" storylines:

Rihanna's having one big ass day.  Her "What Now" video just dropped, and it was just announced she will perform at the 2013 American Music Awards and will also receive the ICON Award.

Chec it all inside, plus her supposed raunchy strip club night with DRAKE!

Rihanna is giving us "Disturbia" tease updated for 2013.

Inside white concrete walls somewhere in Thailand, RiRi is unveiling her tortured soul in the video for her newest single off of Unapologetic called  "What Now".

The video, directed by Jeff Nicholas, Jonathan Craven, and Darren Craig, features Rihanna having mini-convulsion poses and movements. And it gives the visuals an eerie feel.

Check it out above.

And check out the behind the scenes footage of the video below:

And there's other big news for the pop princess.  As she continues her Diamonds world tour in North America, she'll be pulling into NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE on Sunday, November 24th for the 2013 American Music Awards.  She's just been named as a performer.  And she's also been named the recipient of the first ever American Music Awards ICON Award.

And before you ask 'Why?', AMA producer Larry Kelin explains:

“The first-ever Icon Award was created to honor an artist whose body of work has made a profound influence over pop music on a global level. Rihanna’s iconic and innovative sound has enabled her to become one of the most influential and best-selling artists of all time.”

Congrats Rih!

By the way, rumor has it Rihanna spent a little extra time in Texas after performing Monday night in Dallas.  She trekked it to Houston to go see Drake's show on Wednesday, this according to Radar Online whose sources spotted her in the VIP area.  And afterwards, the twosome rolled up to Vlive strip club around 2:30am.

A stripper named Jhonni Blaze, who coined herself the "Queen of Houston", told media what went down.

According to dancer Jhonni Blaze - who claims she entertained the pair for more than three hours - the musicians 'looked like a couple' and were 'really cool people'.

In between dances, Jhonni says she bonded with Rihanna over their similar shaved hairstyles, but Drake, 26, 'was too busy throwing money'. The dancer also reveals she was called over to entertain the stars after Rihanna spotted her in another area. When she joined them, the audacious singer whipped out a wad of cash and "started slapping my butt'.

Alrighty.

And Drake was also spotted cozying up to stripper Lira Galore inside:

While Radar claims Drake and Rihanna (who wasn't pictured) spent $97K on the strippers that night, E! reports it was actally $17K.  Either way....

Strippers win again.

Posing alongside former Blondie singer Debbie Harry, and editor-in-chief of OUT magazine Aaron Hicklin, Mariah Carey attended the 19th Annual Out100 Awards Presented at Terminal 5 in NYC last night.  And had her diva fan right there with her, of course.

She looked amazing in her leather-corset gown which she completed with lace gloves.

In addition to her show-stopping outfit, Mimi has another high-profile diva moment this week when she publicly blasted her sound engineer for uploading the wrong version of her new single "The Art Of Letting Go".  With quips like "a mistake was made by a brand new sound engineer whose only task was to press the space bar", Mimi ripped her "employee" a new one right in front of her 14 million FACEBOOK fans.  She wrote, 

Hey Lambs, I have to tell you this, I can't do what I always do and say nothing at all. It is 3:30am (11.14), and I'm sitting on my bathroom floor, very upset by some news I just got from a close friend and employee. Lucky her, she was "nominated" to deliver this message to me after the long awaited 11.11 moment and the Jimmy Fallon show, knowing how upset I would be. Not because the world has come to an end or something, but because this 11.11 listening party was so important to me on a core level as a musician, who cares so much about how my fans hear my music for the first time that I didn't even allow a snippet to be released until 11 on the dot.

To cut to the chase, a mistake was made by a brand new sound engineer whose only task was to press the space bar and upload the song to Facebook, while my team, and an incredible group of people from Facebook, partied while listening to the properly mixed & mastered version of "The Art of Letting Go" on repeat from my iPod on my home speakers. Clearly, I was focused on answering your questions during the Q&A. There was no reason for me to wonder if the final mix we were listening to in that room together was different than what you were listening to!!!!! Like I always say, I am involved with every record I make, from the inception to the completion of the song. Every nuance of the beat or vocal matters to me. Even if the differences may seem slight to you, I had put time, effort and emotions into "The Art of Letting Go" and the real mix is how I intended for you to hear the song.

Rather than remove the old version from Facebook (the iTunes version is the real one), I just figured I would put up the real mix and allow you to listen to it back-to-back, should you choose to do so and tell me what you think the differences are.
I want you to hear it like you're hearing it for the first time with me, and I will answer any questions that you have, pertaining to the song. You know that I don't comment on gossip, I typically don't respond to things like this or go into so much detail to the world, but this is something I'm upset about and I wish I would have known sooner.

There's no doubt in my mind that this sounds like a self absorbed diva on a "woe-is-me" tangent about a couple of ad libs or some other triviality, but the reality is this is me, focusing solely on the record, wanting you to hear it and experience it the right way. I love and appreciate you so much for taking the time to even glance at this 20-page "diva in distress" thesis. Thank you for letting me vent, this is another reason why Facebook rocks! You'll be hearing from me soon. Here is the REAL version of "The Art of Letting Go".

Listen to the original preview here.

Although we did notice subtle differences, we think DIVA Carey should practice what she preaches and embrace THE ART OF LETTING GO!

She snapped some pics with her diva-in-training Ms. Monroe before leaving out.

And look who else was at the OUT100 Awards--Laverne Cox of "Orange is the New Black".  Work.

Porsha Stewart is raising eyebrows once again with what she ISN'T saying about her estranged hubby Kordell Stewart.  Check out the brand new preview for Sunday's episode where we get the hint that something physically abusive may have gone down...

Now that she's already stirred up drama around his sexuality, Porsha Stewart is doing it again.  This time, it's by insinuating domestic violence!  Yes, it seems almost likely that Kordell could have put his paws on his woman.

In the upcoming episode of "Real Housewives of Atlanta," Kandi Burruss asks Porsha (and we're not sure what made her ask this particular question) if Kordell ever got physical.  Check out her looooooong pause below:

We'll be watching on Sunday to see how this plays out.

And if you're wondering what Porsha had to say about Kordell blasting everything in his recent radio interview, she told Entertainment Weekly recently:

I didn’t hear the interview, and I really don’t care to comment on anything Kordell has to say. He’s saying it for a reason and wants everybody to think of me in one way. At the end of day, Kordell knew who I was to him and what I did and how I felt about his son. I don’t have to justify that at all.

Oh.
