Tatyana Ali wants the world to know she's know longer that innocent sweet little Ashley Banks we've known her to be.  The freshest princess of Bel Air (but based on this new music....she doesn't want to be called that again) is back at her singing career. 

 

And TheYBF.com has the very first look at her artsy "Hello" short film which gives us a peek into her new album...

When she's not starring on "Young & the Restless" or BET's "Second Generation Wayans", 34-year-old Tatyana Ali is working on her music.  It's been over 15 years since her "Boy You Knock Me Out" singing days!  Who knew?!

But now, she's more mature, has some real ish to sing about, and she's not here for your usual boring questions about her past. 

 photo ScreenShot2014-01-16at51324PM_zps55bc2b90.png

In her brand new short film, set to some of her new music, the fab chick showed off her artistic video edge with the visuals.  She says in the vid:

"...Expected to answer the same questions...'Yes, I know who she was'...'No, I'm not the same'....'Of course I liked it'....'You're right, you're still talking about it'...It's a while lifetime ago. People think that's who I really am. I'm not answering these questions anymore. They're boring.

She explained how every seven years humans become different people:

"That's the reason scars disappear...it's like you become brand new. It was so long ago. I'm literally not the same person."

Who is she now exactly?  Guess we'll find out when her new album drops. Peep the "Hello" short film below and what Tatyana has to say about her new work:

"[This film is] an introduction to my forthcoming EP also entitled "Hello". I'm so excited this day is here! All of this is coming from my heart. It's my story. It's what I believe in, what I dream about and what I've been through. My hope is to connect to people and share what I love. This is truly an independent effort. I need your support. If you think it's cool, share it. More to come..."

You can also check out Tatyana and her new music starting January 21st when she's the featured artist on Spotify.

Taj on why the group broke up

“There was no one to speak on our behalf, everyone catered to her [Coko] so it was a cloud storm of emotional anger that blew us to pieces.”

Lelee on why the group broke up

“Someone got really caught up in the hype. Like she was getting a bunch of information from stupid people who really didn’t care about anything but money.”

Coko on Miley Cyrus and twerking

“SIT IT DOWN! And put some clothes on. Please put some clothes on. It doesnt take all that to be sexy.”

Taj on her husband’s alleged affair with pro golfer Rachel Connor

“I would have killed him.”

So...LeBron James Reportedly Caught By An NBC CORRESPONDENT Asking A Chick For Her Number....

Well, this is interesting.  If it's true.  check out how LeBron James MAY have gotten put on blast for some shady activities with another woman....

When LeBron James and the Miami Heat trolled to the White House this past Tuesday to receive a notable congratulations from President Obama being the 2013 National Champs to honor, his wife Savannah James was notably missing from the pictures with all the WAGS.

While it's still unclear if she actually attended (we need the receipts), we do know that NBC Correspondent Stacey Klein allegedly posted teh above message to her Facebook wall. 

She said, according to the FaceBook post captured and posted to IB Times, that while LeBron and co. were in attendance at the White House to hand Prez O his own 44 Heat jersey, she also saw LeBron asking some chick for her number.

Errrr...

Interestingly, when we go to her actual Instagram pic (where this Facebook post was taken from), the caption on the same pic simply says:

The HEAT at the WH today. Team presented a "POTUS" jersey to the head honcho.

We reached out to Stacey to see if someone pulled a major photoshop job on that FB post....or if she deleted her original pic & caption because she realized that she stirred up some ish by (rightfully?) snitching.

We've yet to hear back, but where there's smoke....

We have heard numerous "LeBron cheating rumors" in the past.  But this one, coming from a legit NBC Universal Correspondent, may just hold some water, unfortunately.  Hmm...

LeBron & Savannah spent NYE together and the Heat champ gushed:

Savannah has remained mum about the rumor, as usual, and Bron is currently in Philly gearing up to play the 76ers tomorrow night.

Today is the 50th birthday of First Lady Michelle Obama, and she tells PARADE Magazine, "I have never felt more confident in myself, more clear on who I am as a woman.”

The fabulously fit Mom-in-Chief, who is currently whipping the country into shape with her Let's Move campaign, credits her overall health and well-being to exercise and eating healthy food. (And it doesn't hurt that she wakes up to a sexy Presidential husband every morning either.) She tells PEOPLE,

"I don't obsess about what I eat, but I do make sure that I'm eating vegetables and fruit. And as everyone knows, I do exercise.  I'm seeing myself shift from weight-bearing stuff – even though that continues to be important – and the heavy cardio and running, to things like yoga that will keep me flexible."

For now, Mrs. O is all natural. But she hasn't ruled out Botox or plastic surgery (in the future).  "Right now, I don't imagine that I would go that route, but I've also learned to never say never. Women should have the freedom to do whatever they need to do to feel good about themselves."

We don't think she'll ever need either of those things!

NOTHING TO SEE HERE (Or Is There?): Jets Baller Kellen Winslow Accused Of Masturbating In Target Parking Lot Before Arrest, Now He Explains....

 photo ec1yxQy_zps2a1ef359.jpg

In case you missed it, Jets Tight End Kellen Winslow has been getting dragged on social media today when news of a SECOND reason for his recent arrest hit the net.  And now, he's denying the embarrassing situation.

 

Deets inside...

Here's one way to get out of being caught choking your chicken: Say you're looking for a Boston Market.

Earlier this month, news surfaced that Kellen was arrested in a Target parking lot in the Hanover, NJ area back in November.  At the time, it was simply said he was arrested for possession of "synthetic marijuana"....whatever that is.

But today, it was also revealed that when police got to the scene (thanks to a random store goer who as walking in the parking lot and claimed she saw Kellen's naked and erect penis exposed in his Escalade), they ended up investigating a "lewd act" accusation.

What's that lewd act, you ask?  The police report, that is now public, says a supposedly exposed penis, as well as two--not one, but two--open containers of Vaseline led the police to believe some shady activities could have been going down.

When Kellen was asked what he was doing in the parking lot--in addition to smoking his substance--he said he thought the substance was LEGAL...and he was looking for a Boston Market.

Here's the rundown from CBS Sports:

Winslow was arrested on Nov. 19 for possession of synthetic marijuana. We knew that already. But sordid details of the arrest came to light via NJ.com's Dom Cosentino. These details involve Winslow allegedly masturbating in the parking lot of a Target.

"As she exited her vehicle, she commented to the male regarding how cold it was," the report reads. "As she stood near the open driver side window of the Escalade, she observed the males [sic] erect penis. She stated that she believed he was masturbating. [The woman] provided a written statement regarding her account."

When cops arrived on the scene, they asked Winslow what he was doing and he allegedly told them he was looking for a Boston Market.

The cops said that Winslow had his pants on by the time they found him, although he did apparently have "two open containers of Vaseline on his center console."

Winslow also had, according to the police, empty plastic containers of "Funky Monkey" and empty bags of "Mr. Happy."

No, this doesn't relate to his "Boston Market excursion." Those are the forms of synthetic marijuana that Winslow was allegedly in possession of; he also allegedly told police that he purchased it from gas stations and on the Internet and smoked it because the NFL doesn't test for it.

 

Huh? 

 photo BcWXkQKIYAAVhMQjpg_large_zpsbfc9fdd3.jpg

Oh, there's more from Sports Illustrated:

According to the police report, an officer found Winslow allegedly “slouched in his seat and moving around.” Winslow sprang to an upright position and allegedly told the officer he was looking for Boston Market but was lost.

The officer wrote that “his genitals were not exposed” but “two open containers of Vaseline [were visible] on his center console.” The report also cites the presence of plastic bags marked “Mr. Happy” and empty plastic containers of “Funky Monkey” scattered throughout the vehicle.

Winslow reportedly told police he smoked the “Mr. Happy” and “Funky Monkey” to relax and that the NFL doesn’t drug test for it. Police reported he consented to a vehicle search after which a few items were seized into evidence and Winslow was free to go.

While Kellen was getting totally dragged by social media today, his publicist, Denise White, felt the need to speak up.  She posted this explanation, which basically said he was in the process of changing clothes to cover up the smoke smell.  Yes, the same smoke smell that came from the substance he thought was legal:

Remember Darren FINE ASS Sharper?  The 38-year-old previously dated Gabby Union, then Dollicia Bryan, and was simply the best eye candy for anyone who was forced to watch football.

Yesterday, Darren was reportedly arrested in L.A. for suspicion of rape.  And there are TWO separate incidents of sexual assault involved.  It's unclear if both incidents -- which took place this month and October 2013 -- involved the same victim or two different victims.

The 5-time Pro-Bowler and NFL network analyst was released on $200,000 bail, but he's got to face the music soon.

Oh Darren....

Nice!

Alicia Keys was spotted going to her office carrying a stack of papers.  New script?  New music?  Either way, she's looking super cute in this outfit.

SPEAKING OUT: Madonna "Apologizes" For Calling Her Son The N-Word + Arian Foster's Brother Says He Has PROOF Pregnant Mistress Is LYING

The drama with Houston Texans RB Arian Foster (pictured above with is wife) and his pregnant mistress has gotten a little crazier.  Plus, Madonna is now caught up in a sh*tstorm of mess after dropping the N-Word on Instagram.  And now, she's "apologizing". 

 

Deets inside....

Last week, the story broke about Arian Foster getting sued by his pregnant mistress Brittany Norwood....over her claims of getting harassed to get an abortion.

But now, Arian's brother Abdul (who is also being sued by her) is saying Brittany is nothing but a liar (shocker).  And he's got proof: Text messages where she's actually offering up compliments to Abdl about how he's handling her pregnancy news.

TMZ reports:

Now, Abdul is breaking his silence ... telling us, "At no time did I ever try to threaten, harass or pressure Ms. Norwood. The only contacts I had with her were on November 12, 2013 when we exchanged text messages and met for dinner."

TMZ Sports has seen the text message exchange, in which Abdul apologized for the "passionate" dinner conversation ... but said he understands her decision to keep the baby and added, "I hope things continue to work out."

Brittany responded to the text with a series of compliments ... saying, "Abdul, honestly I respect your opinion and I know how good of a person you are and all the people you're trying to protect and that's so genuine and admirable."

She continued, "I'm really trying to think about everything, it's just a horrible situation and it's very hard. But I do love your brother so much I can't express to anyone how I feel about him and how happy he makes me."

 

Sigh.

 

Meanwhile, over on Madonna's IG page, she's apologizing for calling her 13-year-old son, Rocco, the N-word.  Here's her original post that shook up some ish last night:

 photo enhanced-buzz-23306-1390008496-2_zps10dc9ffa.jpg

She deleted the post a little while later after some commenters DRAGGED her for it.  And she put this up instead:

 photo enhanced-buzz-22060-1390008665-11_zps1aabc545.jpg

And after telling people to "Get off her d*ck"...because people getting upset that Madonna is calling her son a "N*gga" is just all too shocking for her....she issued an apology today:

“I am sorry if I offended anyone with my use of the N word on Instagram. It was not meant as a racial slur. I am not a racist. There’s no way to defend the use of the word. It was all about intention.  It was used as a term of endearment toward my son who is white. I appreciate that it’s a provocative word and I apologize if it gave people the wrong impression.”

We're going to keep our comments to ourselves about this one...

Thoughts?

Jennifer Hudson was spotted making her D.C. arrival this afternoon, just hours before she's set to rock the White House.  Check the pics inside...

J-Hud and her entourage, including her family & her very lucky assistant, landed at Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C.  And she's just in time to jet to the White House to perform for First Lady Michelle Obama's big 50th birthday celebration.

Cute.

The "Spotlight" singer signed autographs as her baby boy David, Jr. and her fiancee David were right behind her.  And we hear J-Hud won't be the only performer for tonight's big bash.  Beyonce and others are also rumored to pop up.  And word has it, the invitations say to bring comfortable shoes.

As long as no twerk videos surface.  Closed-door D.C. parties can get cray...

We do too Lupita!  She topped off her look with a low top fade, custom dyed Louboutins, perfect makeup and Fred Leighton jewels.
