The ish hit the fan last night on "Real Housewives of Atlanta".  Check out the drama with NeNe & Peter and Todd & Camron vs. Mama Joyce inside.  Plus, Torrei Hart is already launching her own businesses before her new reality show even begins...

Last night, Nene was in her feelings, as usual, and caused quite the stir with her friend Peter Thomas.  At Kenya's disastrous charity gala, NeNe snatched the mic and gave the most awkward speech in front of all attendees.  Peter wasn't feeling that ish, and he read chick for points.  And, obviously, NeNe wasn't having THAT either.

Meanwhile, Todd and Camron have finally given Kandi an ultimatum about her meddling ass mama.  After Mama Joyce left the messiest voicemail for Carmon, Todd and Carmon tell Kandi she needs to handle that....or else.

Check out the clips below and discuss all the foolery.  Did they handle their "situations' appropriately?

In other reality news:

Torrei Hart, who's set to star on the upcoming reality show "Atlanta Exes," just launched her own line of low-calorie drinks.  It's called SKIMPY MIXERS, not to be confused with fellow reality chick Bethenny Frankel's Skinny Girl, and it just hit the shelves in Wal Mart.

She's already launching businesses before her reality show even kicks off.  Nice.  She said:

Hard work pays off. I am officially on shelves in Wal Mart. Go grab my @skimpymixers #cherrylimeade today. Thank you Jesus. #walmart #blessed #mogul #gogetter #torreihart #diet #lowcalorie #alcohol

Looks like her ex Kevin Hart isn't the only one making major moves.  Congrats Torrei!

We weren't too sure if we were going to like ABC's show "Mistresses" this past summer.  But we kinda loved it.  And part of the reason is because of Rochelle Aytes.

Check out the actress' brand new spread for XEX mag inside...

She's a face we don't see too often, but she's a fab chick nonetheless.

In a new editorial for fashion publication XEX Magazine's Rebel Edition, Rochelle keeps it sexy in sheer blouses, leather skirts, and embellished cropped jackets.

The shoot was done by Adolphus Amissah in the Presidential Suite in The Sheraton Times Square.  And the 37-year-old hottie, who's gone from Tyler Perry films to network tv shows, is rocking looks from Andrew Marc, Larucci, Yves St. Laurent, Cesare Paciotti and more.

Remember Jay Z's black and white Magna Carta Holy Grail tour jersey that read TOM FORD in big letters with the number 61 (a nod to designer Tom Ford's birth year)?  Well, Mr. Ford himself has taken that knock off of sorts...and knocked it off himself to the tune of $6,500.

Check it inside...

During the Tom Ford show during London Fashion Week on Monday, designer Tom Ford debuted a sequined jersey dress--in both black and orange--with his name across the front, the number 61, and Molly crossed out at the bottom. 

If it looks familiar, that's because Jay Z rocked this design in a jersey t-shirt version as one of his MCHG tour tees.  And it was in reference to his "Tom Ford" track that denounces the drug Molly....but sings all the praises of the American designer.

Jay's jersey was created by BBP (Black Boy Place), a French brand founded in 2010.  The tee was not done by designer Tom Ford, even though his likeness is represented.  The company sells that tee and many others (many in relation to Jay Z's MCGH references) for $65.  But it looks like Mr. Ford is getting in on the knock-off game that his brand is already involved in.

He told The Associated Press, "I just took the knock off from online, and knocked it off."

Then he told Style.com just how he did it:

"[Jay Z's original jersey] sells for $65." Ford chuckled an opportunist's chuckle. "My knockoff will sell for $6,500."

That article continued:

Those Number 61 outfits featured a crossed-out "Molly." Jay Z raps "no" to the current incarnation of Ecstasy, but "yes" to Ford, fashion being the ultimate high 'n' all. His acknowledgment of the "accolade" may have been intended as ironic, but it was also a reminder of Ford's ongoing engagement with excess.

Can't even be mad at that.  We hear from unconfirmed sources that Tom Ford tapped BBP to help him create his version of the sequined football jersey dress.  And the French company is now working on 600 pieces in honor of Justin Timberlake's "20/20 World Experience Tour."

By the way, remember Betty Adewole, the new face of TOM FORD Beauty we told you about last month?  She also walked in yesterday's show looking gorgeous.

LeBron James may have just as many haters as he does fans, and he's well aware.  Check out the Miami Heat star's take on his critics, why he's just fine with being a "changed man"...much in part thanks to his wife, kids and maturity....and more....

As the March 2014 cover guy of GQ, rocking Armani and Tom Ford suits with Nike sneakers, Bron Bron is talking a whole lot more than usual.  And he's definitely in a good place, not just in his FAT mansion in Coconut Grove, Florida.

Here are the highlights from the just released cover story:

On not being selfish (despite his critics saying otherwise)

"Like, I could average thirty-five points a game if I really wanted to," he says. He is beautifully handsome, solid and smooth as a sycamore. "But then—it wouldn't be me," he says. "So I don't know if I could do it, because of my instincts. I see a teammate open—even if I have a great shot—I see a teammate open for a better shot, I gotta feed him. It's like, my mind sometimes be like 'Shoot it,' but then—my instincts, you know?"

Fatherhood, he says, is a lot like sports. "Being a leader of my household, a leader of Miami, a leader of Team USA. It's the same exact thing. You can sense when a guy is frustrated—maybe doesn't feel involved enough in the offense. As leader you go over to him, you know, 'How can I help?' Because at the end of the day, we all have one common goal—and that's to be great."

On why he's proud that he's changed, like haters criticize him for doing

"Good! That's like a good thing," he says. "I'm like, 'Thank you.' Shit. I'm 29 years old with a family—I'm married with a family. I—of course I've changed. The problem is, you haven't changed. And that's why you dislike what I do, you know."

"As an African-American, we hear it a lot where we grow up. You've changed." He's sick of hearing it used as a criticism. "Because you've tried to better yourself and because you've made it out. 'You're not the same person that we used to know.' Of course I'm not. I'm trying to better myself. Change is not a bad thing. Thinking that it's bad, you know, that's one thing I think is a downfall for African-Americans for sure."

On thanking his father for NOT being around

"Like, 'Wow, Dad, you know what, I don't know you, I have no idea who you are, but because of you is part of the reason who I am today.' The fuel that I use—you not being there—it's part of the reason I grew up to become who I am. It's part of the reason why I want to be hands-on with my endeavors. And be able to put my guys that's with me now in position. Like Maverick Carter, my right-hand guy in my business. Rich Paul, my agent. Randy Mims, my friend—he's my manager, you know. So me in a position allowing people around me to grow, that maybe wouldn't have happened if I had two parents, two sisters, a dog, and a picket fence, you know?"

On what he learned from all the controversy he caused with The Decision

"The best thing that ever happened to me," he says. "I needed it. It helped me grow as a man. As a professional, as a father. At the time, as a boyfriend. It helped me grow. Being confined, I spent my whole life in Akron, Ohio. For twenty-five years. Even though I played professionally in Cleveland, I still lived in Akron. Everything was comfortable. I knew everything, everybody knew me—everything was comfortable. I needed to become uncomfortable."

"Now I've seen everything on and off the floor this league has to offer," he says. "I got an answer for everything. Winning, losing, being a free agent, staying, leaving, media, media down on you, media big up on you, agents, money, parking it, family, money. All, everything. So whatever your question is, I can deliver."

On why people like Miley don't need to be attention grabbers

"Miley Cyrus? She has a great voice! She don't need the shenanigans. She can have some of the shenanigans, but not all of the shenanigans, you know? And she can be at peace! She can be at peace.  Shenanigans."

You've seen the sneak peek, now get VOGUE's inside cover story on your favorite I-Make-Ratchet-Look-Sexy chick Rihanna from the March 2014 issue....

Now that Rihanna's full VOGUE cover story is out, there's a few new things we've learned about the 25-going-on-26-year-old.  If that's possible.  While going from tomboy to utterly sexy to high fashion all in one swoop in her new cover spread, Ri dishes on fashion, weave, and more.  Oh, all while zooming around NYC playing a bossy (but super fun) stylist...for the VOGUE writer herself.

She's guarded about her weave, but will reveal it anyway

“It’s not my hair, but the girl who donated it, she’s the bomb,” says Rihanna. “Black girls never let anyone see this,” she adds, pulling apart the locks at the back of her head to show me the intricate workings of the false hair, which is woven into a net attached to her own. “I have two main hair people I work with. They’re always with me. I’m like, ‘I’m bored! I wanna change my hair!’ That’s the good thing about a weave. You can do whatever with it.”

It's not that her 6 inch $6,000 heels don't hurt her, she just knows how to play it off better than most

“It’s not about pain. It’s about the commitment. I say to myself, ‘I want to look like this,’ and worry about the pain later. I’ve had nights I had to tiptoe home and the balls of my feet wouldn’t even allow me to stand.”

She's about that Claire's life, like many of us

“My jewelry’s all fake—from Claire’s. Or I get it from my mom’s boutique in Barbados. Her shop’s called FAB-U-LUS.”

She says she never expected fame--and yes, she did actually practice singing

“I did sing a lot as a child. A lot. I practiced hard to maneuver my voice. I love singing. I love it, and it doesn’t feel like a chore. It’s an expression. I never wanted to be famous. I just wanted my music to be heard all over the world. Then it happened and the fame came with it. I can’t ever imagine feeling used to it.”

Her tomboy/rebel fashion persona is the real her

When I was thirteen or fourteen, I didn’t want to wear what my mom wanted me to wear. I was very much a boy in my style, my demeanor. All my friends were guys. I loved things that boys did. I loved being easy with my clothes. I loved wearing hats and scarves and snapbacks on my head. It was my way of rebelling. I wanted to dress like my brother. After a while, it was just easier for Mom to dress us both the same. We wore the same jeans, the same T-shirts.”

“I don’t go out of my way to be a rebel or to have that perception, but a lot of the decisions I make, a lot of the direction I want to move, is against the grain, or against society’s tight lane, and I’m aware of that sometimes. It might not be fitting with the norm, but that’s OK for me.”

“It all started in dance rehearsal,” she explains. “When you’re on tour, you go to rehearse wearing sweats and sneaks. Then you practice your song in the heels you are going to wear that night. I realized, Wow, that looks cool! I have a friend who is literally searching for cool T-shirts for me all the time because I’m obsessed.”

Her disdain for undergarments is real

“If I’m wearing a top, I don’t wear a bra,” she says. “If I’m wearing a bra, I just wear a bra.”

Her obsession with Instagram is actually just her communicative nature

“Instagram is my way of communicating to the world,” she says. “When I’m on tour, I keep fans in the loop. I don’t really think about it too much. Literally, I can be sitting in a car and be bored, so I do a selfie just because I’m bored. Or if my dog is running around in circles and I think that’s funny, I put it on Instagram.” As for who Rihanna follows on Instagram? “I follow girls from the Middle East. It gives you ideas.”

She knows her fashion game is a huge factor making her the star she is

“It’s not all down to my voice. There’s people with way more talent than I when it comes to singing. Bigger voices. But people want to know who you are. Fashion is a clear indication, a way to express your attitude, your mood.”

Just when we thought that charity gala from hell was behind us, NeNe Leakes and Kenya Moore have stirred up more drama today.  Deets inside...

After NeNe snatched that mic from Kenya after feeling set up at her "charity gala" that was supposed to be in NeNe's honor, Mrs. Leakes is now apologizing for her actions.  But she stands by her claims that Kenya did this gala for attention, and had no intentions of it having real meaning to anyone involved.

NeNe posted the blog below where she spills all about the subject, and apologizes as well:

I don't have a lot I want to say, but I'll start by saying I apologize for my behavior at the charity event. I definitely don't want to teach young women that this is the proper way to respond when someone is trying to trick you into a situation and push your buttons. I would much rather teach young women to be aware of the wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Kenya used the charity’s name for her own selfish reasons. I'm the kind of girl that likes to spill the facts. Everything else is just gossip and B.S. Here are the facts. I never received a call, a text, or an email from Kenya. What I did learn the night before the charity event is that Kenya had used a PR Firm to send e-vites to everyone, which is why I didn't see it. Fact! You heard me right, a third party! She wanted you to believe she sent me an email and she did not. FACT! If she really had pure, good intentions, she could have picked up the phone, called me, and said, "Hey let's put our differences aside for a night of charity!"

I'm a very rational person. I have been a major supporter to Saving Our Daughters and have raised thousands of dollars for them. Fact! All this charity B.S. is coming from a person that showed up at my charity event last year in a thong and butt pads! She even argued outside of Porsha's charity event! She has no credibility when it comes to charity. I just hope Saving Our Daughters received the thousands of dollars she claimed to have raised.

I'm not surprised things have gone down the way they have between Kenya and me. She had beef with Cynthia over the whole coochie crack thing, then moved on to Porsha, then to Phaedra over a booty video, then to Apollo, and now me! I see straight through her! She's not original. What's she's doing has already been done. I have always stood alone in a war! I might bend, but I won't break, and if I stumble, I won't fall! I see what she’s doing and so do you.

P.S. Here's something else I saw: (1) Did you see the opportunist that keeps coming around? (2) Did you see my friend just sit there and indirectly support this B.S.? I have worked with a lot of women over the years, and the one thing that it has taught me is that life is like an elevator -- on your way up, you have to let people off!

We have a few guesses about who she's talking about toward the end.  Do you?

As for Kenya saying the charity gala would benefit Saving Our Daughters, who NeNe works closely with, the organization is calling B.S.  In the nicest most respectable way, of course.  They say they ever received any funds of the "thousands of dollars" enya said the event raised.  And the set-up of the event was shaky throughout--changing PR hands and more.

In a statement today, S.O.D. says:

To all of our sponsors, contributors and friends -

On February 16, 2014, Saving Our Daughters was mentioned on the episode of Real Housewives of Atlanta as being honored with a fundraiser on its behalf.

Our charity was contacted by publicist April Love to get approval and give notice of this upcoming event. Much to our delight, we were indeed honored to be chosen. After all, one of our largest financial contributors, Mrs. NeNe Leakes who has been responsible for contributions in the thousands of dollars throughout the years, is a member of the cast.

Days later, to our surprise Ms. Love did contact me and inform me that she had decided to terminate her company’s involvement with this event. At that point, Ms. Moore contacted me to continue moving forward with the event as purposed and planned. This call took place a day before the event was scheduled to take place.

Upon seeing the event unfold on TV, it was noticed that Ms. Kenya Moore stated that she was giving this charitable event in honor of Mrs. Leakes, with Saving Our Daughters as the recipient of the proceeds from the charity event. Honorees at this point were switched without our knowledge, but again, we are appreciative of any and all support for the organization.

Had we been made aware that this fundraising event was in honor of Mrs. Leakes, we certainly would have been present with the plaques and certificates of appreciation that we currently have to present to Mrs. Leakes for her outstanding efforts and support for Saving Our Daughters. This would have been the perfect opportunity for us to honor her, as well. We were not aware of this and it appears that Mrs. Leakes wasn’t aware either.

The light in which Saving Our Daughters was depicted was less than favorable. The organization received several calls from other supporters about our involvement in this event. They were extremely disappointed and felt that the organization was being taken advantage of.

We go on record by stating that we at Saving our Daughters have never and will not ever be involved in any drive where the exact purpose is not clear, stated or held to with only approved changes. We would not ever jeopardize our continuing support from our friends by being a part of what appears to have been tainted from the start.

In closing, Ms. Kenya Moore stated that thousands of dollars were raised at this event. To protect the integrity of Saving Our Daughters, our records show that we did not receive any of the proceeds raised from Ms. Moore’s masquerade ball.

However, we do appreciate the contribution we did receive of $500 for our annual Christmas doll drive for children with cancer.

Womps.  We'll await Kenya's explanation....

Kelis is serving up "Jerk Ribs" in her brand new saucy video.  Check it inside, plus Lil Kim's new song "Haterz"....

Lil Kim may be a mom-to-be to a baby boy on the way, but she's still ready to bust out some bars every now and then.  Fresh off her upcoming Hard Core mixtape that continues to get pushed back, her track called "Haterz" featuring B Ford has hit the net.

Check out the hard core lyrics below, and decide if she's still got it:

Kelis is bringing her certified Le Cordon Bleu training to her music. Fresh off her upcoming album aptly titled, Food, Nas' ex-wife is still giving us the eclectic yet fresh sound and look we crave in a sea of industry folks who copy each other.

About her lead single, "Jerk Ribs", Kelis told TIME:

“This song is the cornerstone of my album.  So I wanted the video to look like my life, my love — back to the beginning.”

And now, the saucy upbeat Caribbean inspired track got the video treatment.  Check it below:

By the way, Kelis will be flossing her real life chef skills on The Cooking Channel on her own show, "Saucy & Sweet," premiering February 28th.  Food hits the table April 22nd.

The parents of slain unarmed teen Jordan Davis appeared on GMA this morning, for the first time since the mistrial ruling, where they vowed to fight stand your ground laws and seek justice for their son.  Watch the video inside....

Lucia McBath and Ronald Davis, the parents of Jordan Davis, appeared on GMA this morning where they spoke about the Michael Dunn verdict, saying they understood that the jury had a difficult task before them. Ronald also vowed to change "Stand Your Ground" laws in Florida.  Ronald blamed the mistrial on the confusing Stand Your Ground instructions given to the jury.  He also stated,"God is the ultimate justice" and their family is praying for Michael Dunn.

Lucia closed out the interview by saying the true "justice" for Jordan would be having the Stand Your Ground laws changed. 

On Nightline...

"Valerie", one of the jurors from the Jordan Davis trial, spoke to Nightline, revealing that the group knew within the first hour that they would be unable to reach a unanimous decision.  For the first vote, it ended up being 9 in favor of a guilty verdict, and 3 in favor of a not guilty verdict.  In a second vote after over nearly 30 hours of deliberations, the vote became 9-3.

"It said if he believed that he had an eminent threat to himself or his fiancee, so that was a thing that those two folks believed – he was frightened and there was no other option for him in regards to Mr. Davis. The rest of us were 100 percent sure, you didn't have to react [with gunfire], you could have had another option.

"We looked at a lot of evidence – and myself, it was where the gunshots were, the timing. Could he have had other options? To me, [the shooting] was unnecessary."

She also said she hopes Jordan's parents do not feel they did a complete disservice in justice with this case, as Michael Dunn was convicted of attempted murder of the others in the car, and other charges.

You've likely seen the viral pics over the last year from the Because Of Them, We Can Campaign, headed by mom of two Eunique Jones, where absolutely adorable black children from all over the country portray the most amazing YBF icons and celebs.

In honor of Black History Month, we're premiering the Because of Them, We Can campaign's new "Janelle Monae" video, which is part of the new video component of the movement.  Check out the cuteness inside....

About the adorable Janelle Monae salute, Eunique said, "I wanted to bring the photos to life and showcase how some of the individuals who we've covered over the last year have set examples that still have relevant applications for us today." 

She continued, "I chose to feature Janelle Monáe because she is a present day example of what it means to be comfortable in your own skin. Janelle is uncompromisingly unique and shows that you don't have to conform or change who you are in order to make other comfortable. We need more role models like her and I don't believe that an individual should always have to be deceased or old to honor and recognize the contributions they're making that push others forward. Just look at how she inspired these little dancers! And they aren't even teenagers yet."

So after having inspirational "Primetime" singer Janelle in the 2013 picture campaign, the video treatment is below:

About the campaign, as told by Eunique Jones herself:

The Because of Them, We Can campaign was birthed out of my desire to share our rich history and promising future through images that would refute stereotypes and build the esteem of our children. While I originally intended to publish the campaign photos, via social media, during Black History Month, I quickly realized how necessary it was to go further. With so many achievers to highlight, and thousands of children to engage and inspire, 28 days wasn't enough. On the last day of February, with just 28 photographs in my collection, I decided to resign from my job in order to continue the campaign. On March 1, 2013, after most national and local conversations about Black History and Achievement ended, I released a photo of a mini-inspired Phyllis Wheatley and began the journey to continue the project for a full year.

A year later I have come to the conclusion that even 365 days aren't enough. What began as a mother's passion project quickly evolved into a movement. Today we are committed as ever before to encourage and empower people of all ages and hues to dream out loud and reimagine themselves as greater than they are, simply by connecting the dots between the past, the present and the future.

Kenya Moore is popping back at the accusations that Saving Our Daughters received none of the money she raised from her "charity gala" on "RHOA". Check out the receipts she's providing inside...

Well, Kenya provided the receipts we all asked for.  Even though the CEO & Founder of the Saving Our Daughters organization claims they never received a dollar of the $10,000 the gala raised in their (and NeNe's) honor, Kenya says that's simply not true.

She tells the folks over at B Scott:

“It’s unfortunate Mr. Curtis Benjamin was not aware of the effort I put into trying to make the event a success for Saving Our Daughters or overlooked the texts regarding the intended honoree. I spent over $10,000 dollars to make the charity event successful, in addition to making a personal donation from the event as well as forwarding any and all donations collected. I hope the focus can shift to the young girls and I wish the organization nothing but the best in the future.”

And the site published a copy of what appears to be Kenya's (the name is blacked out) $500 check that was written out to the organization.  Now, whether or not the company ever received the check is a different story.  Or it's also possible this is the same $500 they did admit Kenya gave as a "Christmas donation".  Was the Christmas donation supposed to be the same as the charity gala donation?  Or nah?

The site also published text messages, which seemed to have come from Kenya, that prove she was in communication with CEO Curtis Benjamin himself.  One response from Curtis said:

“Hi Kenya – Thank you for your personal donation as well. Here is the address so we can make it on time. Saving Our Daughters 311 Ryan Trail Dallas, GA 30157 :) .  We will email over your thank you receipt letter this week from our trustee board for your total donation. Again thank you. :)"

Reportedly, Kenya had all attendees write out their donation checks to HER, not the S.O.D. org.  So maybe she gathered up all--or some--and handed over a donation in her own name? 

So, how does NeNe, the alleged honoree, play into all this again?

Who knows.  But Kenya tweeted last night:

I have video proof more check copies and a contract too so pls do not come for me unless I send for you. #dropsmicrophone#grabsbible2pray4u

Iggy Azalea goes totally nude in the latest edition of GQ where she poses with her boyfriend, Nick Young, of the LA Lakers.  Nick is wearing these smedium jeans (that fit him more like jeggings) in every pic.  But Iggy seems to like 'em.

They've been dating for several months now, but a boo'd up spread in a major mag already?  Must be nice...

In COMPLEX Mag, Nick revealed that his friends call him "Swaggy P" because of his fashion sense and love of sneakers. 

First things first. Where does the nickname “Swaggy P” come from?

Just from hanging around the homies, and how I dress. They just came up with something and I just ran with it. They would talk about how my jeans are too skinny, and my style is different.

I know you have a crazy sneaker game, how many pairs do you own?

Man. I don’t even know. It’s too many right now. My brother has been coming to take sneakers and everybody has been coming for sneakers lately. I’ve been losing some, gaining some. I probably have 200 to 300 pairs.

Do you have a pair of sneakers with sentimental value?

Probably the “Swaggy P” Nike Kobe 9 sneakers. For Nike and Kobe to let me debut the sneakers, that was pretty big. They’re sold out everywhere since I wore them. I need to get a percentage [laughs].

In other music news....

Pharrell Williams has revealed that his Columbia Records debut “G I R L” will drop globally on March 3.

He released a statement saying,

"When Columbia Records presented me with the opportunity to make an album, three things came to mind. One was the sense of overwhelming honor that I felt when I realized that they were interested in partnering with me on the album that I had always dreamt of making. Two, it would have to feel festive and urgent. And three, I instantly knew it would be called 'G I R L'. I hope you like it."

Also, during an interview with TIME OUT, the 40-year-old Oscar nominee revealed his secret to his youtuhful skin.  Folks have gone as far as calling him a vampire because, let's face it, dude DOES seem like he's Benjamin Buttons or an extra on "True Blood".  He said:

"I'm willing to go on record as saying that I don't drink people's blood. How do I stay so young-looking for a 40-year-old? I wash my face."

That's it people....it's that simple!  For him...

A few of our fave chicks are making major moves.  Deets inside on Letoya Luckett & Jada Pinkett Smith's new roles and Halle Berry's movie getting the big screen green light inside...

Hottie Letoya Luckett isn't stopping at "Single Ladies" when it comes to her budding acting career.  Reportedly, she just nabbed a spot in the case of the upcoming HBO series "Ballers".

Headed by lead Dwyane "The Rock" Johnson (who plays a retired professional football player), the cast already has Omar Benson Miller and Denzel Washington’s son John David Washington attached. 

The former D-Child singer will play "Tina", the widow of one of the lead characters. 

The cast and crew start production later this year.  And since the show is produced by Mark Wahlberg, you already know we're going to get that "Entourage" feel.  We're here for it.

In other working news, Jada Pinkett Smith is in villain mode.  And it looks like Fox is putting more and more black actors on their network.  A move to get black viewership?  Hmmm...

Anywho, Fox is gearing up to debut their Batman prequel drama "Gotham."    And Jada has been tapped to play Fish Mooney, "an imposing, hotheaded and notoriously sadistic gangster boss and nightclub owner with street smarts and almost extra-sensory abilities to read people like an open book"  Whew.

We totally see her for this.  About the movie, Deadline says:

Based on DC characters from the Batman universe, Gotham explores the origin stories of Commissioner James Gordon (McKenzie) as an idealistic rookie detective in Gotham City, along with Bruce Wayne and the villains who made Gotham City famous.

And Jada broke the news to her Facebook fans today saying:

Last night, I decided to accept the role of Fish Mooney, who is the sadistic villain in thee upcoming Batman prequel, Gotham, for Fox TV. I've committed to a year to work alongside a very talented cast, a super cool, creative and talented head writer and an extraordinary director. This one...is going to be funnnnnn!

Stay tuned:)

Congrats Jada!

And finally, after what seems like FOREVER, Halle Berry's film Frankie & Alice is finally getting a theatrical release.  Even though she and the cast and celebs had a big Hollywood premiere back in 2010, the movie never got a nation-wide release.  But now, 4 years later, it's here.

A brand new trailer was just released for the flick based on a true story, and it looks intense.  Halle said about the film:

"'Frankie & Alice' is an emotionally compelling film that I cannot wait for audiences to finally see. I am extremely proud of the film because it focuses on the very real issues of mental illness, and it is my wish that Frankie Murdoch's story will give hope and support to those struggling."

Lionsgate & Codeblack Films describe the flick below:

FRANKIE & ALICE is inspired by the remarkable true story of an African American go-go dancer "Frankie" with multiple personalities (dissociative identity disorder or “DID”) who struggles to remain her true self while fighting against two very unique alter egos: a seven-year-old child named Genius and a Southern white racist woman named Alice. In order to stop the multiple voices in her head, Frankie (Halle Berry) works together with a psychotherapist (Stellan Skarsgard) to uncover and overcome the mystery of the inner ghosts that haunt her.

Peep the trailer below.  The movie now hits theaters April 4th.

BONUS: Terrence Howard was just tapped to lead the upcoming Fox Hip-Hop Drama pilot from Lee Daniels & Danny Strong.  It's called "Empire" and is  described as the following:

Empire is described as a unique family drama set in the world of a hip-hop empire. It centers on Lucious Lyon (Howard), a charismatic, savvy music superstar who is about to take his company, Empire Entertainment, public. Raised on the streets, he has never backed away from a fight and will resort to any measures, fair or foul, to defend his beloved Empire.

Oh Marlo.  Now that NeNe Leakes is feeling like the cameras and spotlights are flipping the script on her, putting her in a negative light due to all he recent "RHOA" drama, it seems Marlo may be trying to get in where she fits in.  And tis may be why NeNe no longer considers her a frined.  Check out what Marlo has said and done recently inside....

So, after Nene tweeted a while back she and Marlo are no longer friends, we're now starting to see why.  NeNe may feel that Marlo switched to Kenya Moore's Team Twirl on her after the last episode when Marlo and Keyna randomly teamed up to audition men for that charity gala.

And with little things being said on social media, Marlo's now calling Nene out for being mad about her two shows she spoke so much about getting the axe. And Marlo claims Nene is simply feeling like her light is dimming, and she's not trying to let anyone else's shine.

Here's Marlo's blog, in part, she just wrote:

As I said, when I first started spending time with NeNe, (who initially was not too happy about me being on RHOA, but then “appeared” to take me under her wing), I didn’t let the warnings from Kandi and Phaedra deter me from giving her the benefit of the doubt. I looked up to her as a big sister since she and my oldest sister, (who is 8 years my senior and full of wisdom) are the same age. I really thought she understood where I came from and how I was trying to change my life for the better, just as she had done. We all have a past, but we can choose to leave it behind us. (I guess I should have listened to the ladies, huh? Sorry…)

I’ve been called an opportunist, often! But honestly, who among us does not take advantage of opportunities that improve the quality of our lives and allow us to realize our dreams? Who among us doesn’t use our gifts, brains, beauty and talents to our benefit? Let she/he who lives in the glass house, (of delusions) throw the first stone at me. Unlike some of us, I don’t believe that there are people who “are not on my level!” Last I heard, God created all of us equal.

That “taste” of Hollywood is like fresh, sweet ice cream. The only problem is, eventually it will melt and the “taste” will fade leaving not even a linger of flavor… Perhaps some of us should learn the meaning of humility because just like an elevator, the people you put off, might be the same ones you want to hold the door when you’re trying to get back on… Ijs!

Welp, cheers to that!  We're also hearing from uncofirmed sources that Marlo is being set up to take Nene's spot next year on "Housewives".  And Nene is NOT feeling any of this ish.  Bravo production has supposedly gotten involved, allegedly, and ish just doesn't look good for Team Rich.   Not sure how much we believe, but apparently Nene has allegedly stormed out of taping more than once.

Check out a couple previews from next week where the drama will be breing between Team Rich and Team Marlo:

It looks like Kimora Lee MARRIED her new Goldman Sachs investment baller boo without ANYONE knowing.  Well, anyone outside her close fam and ex-husband Russell Simmons.

See how Russ outed the couple inside...

Well looky here. Kimora went and got secretly hitched! According to her ex Russell Simmons, her lover Tim has been part of the family for a while now. But, the public just only recently got to know him after pics from a family vacay in St. Barts surfaced this past December.

Kimora & Tim hit up a few red carpet events together, but most had no clue it was on the marriage level already.  But apparently, Tim is now step-dad to 14-year-old Ming Lee, 11-year-old Aoki Lee, and 4-year-old Kenzo Lee.

In response to a gossip item about the couple, Russell posted the below on Wednesday exposing Kimora & Tim's marital status:

All of us love @OfficialKimora but the fact is she is happily married. . Tim is has been family for a while now. #gossipcop....

— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) February 19, 2014

Oh?!  

Hopefully it's a legal marriage recognized here in the 50 states, unlike her last "marriage" to Djimon Hounsou...

They were spotted all smiles at the Golden Globes afterparty last month, and Kimora is rocking a diamond band on her ring finger.

The couple looks happy as pie.  Congrats Kimora!
