Rob Kardashian and the Roc's resident British blonde Rita Ora tried to avoid being snapped with each other while on a London night out last night.  The twosome have been rumored to be dating for months, and it looks like there may be some truth to it.

The duo was caught making their rounds in and out the club...then their hotel...just minutes apart.  Pics, plus Rita's brand new song, inside...

After making rounds with her boss Jay-Z in NYC to premiere her music, Rita's back in her homeland:

Bith Rob and Rita hit up Shoreditch House (a private members' only club in East London) before heading out to Mahiki nightclub together. They left within a few minutes of each other at 2.15am, then went to a nearby hotel where they went in separately:

And they're even dressed similarly with the oversized button down tied around the waist.  Well isn't that sweet...

Rita also premiered her new UK single "R.I.P." today and it features Tinie Tempah. The track was written by Drake and produced by Chase & Status and the duo Stargate. The track also features a sample from Nigerian-German hip hop/soul singer Nneka. Check it below:

Can you guess which YBF chick was spotted hitting up The Ivy in L.A. for a paparazzi filled lunch?  Answer inside...

Everybody knows you don't go to the Ivy if you want to avoid the paparazzi lens.  So who's the YBF chick who pulled up in her white Range Rover in a backless blouse?

It's YBF Chick Meagan Good of course.  We see you girl....dipping into those new wardrobe pieces.  Maybe she's switching up her style because she's got a new man in her life. 

We've learned she's dating Sony Pictures Executive head honcho DeVon Franklin...who is responsible for many of the Christian based black films actually making it into the theaters--mainly Jumping The Broom (which Meagan stared in and where she likely met him).  He's also behind Pursuit of Happyness, Hancock, the remake of Karate Kid, and more.  Hmmm...

She's looking great these days.  Hair clips and all.  The 30-year-old is set to star in the upcoming Think Like A Man film in April.

Rihanna is across the pond continuing to make some interesting style choices. Come inside and decide if we love her latest creation.

Rihanna was spotted leaving her hotel in London yesterday.  In this interesting get-up: 


 

She created an 80s punk rock look mixing separates like her thigh high Louboutins, bedazzled studded stonewashed short shorts, and two blue jean shirts--with one tied at the waist. 

So......

DO WE LOVE IT?

The Randomness:

1.  Snooki is pregnant y'all!  She denied the accusations in order to not jinx herself.  But will admit it any day now.  Jesus help the chil'ren.... STORY

Michael Jordan shown above with fiance Yvette Prieto, placed his long-time Chicago mansion on the market for a whopping $29 million. Get the deets on his fab place inside.....

If you have a spare $29M lying around and don't mind living in the Chicago suburbs, Michael Jordan may have a deal for you.

The Hall of Famer has listed his 56,000 sq. ft. Highland Park mansion.  It comes with nine bedrooms, 15 full baths, four half baths and five fireplaces.

And for the basketball fan, there's also an attached indoor b-ball complex. The court has a full-size regulation court with cushioned hardwood floors, adjustable backstops and baskets, and a booming sound system.  It's like your own arena!

And if that isn't enough, the property comes with a three-bedroom guesthouse, an indoor-outdoor entertaining and pool area, an outdoor tennis court, a putting green, a deep water pond and three climate-controlled garages that hold 15 cars.  Well damn.  But expect property taxes to run you $165,224. 

And there's no word yet on when MJ is walking down the aisle, but Yvette recently celebrated her boo's 49th birthday!

In a gorgeous white sheer and embroidered robe-style gown, Tracee Ellis Ross tapped into her fabulously colorful side for the March 2012 issue of UPTOWN Magazine.

Check out the cover, YBF's exclusive outtake from her shoot, and what she had to say about finally having some babies inside....

Diana Ross' baby girl is officially grown and sexy.  The 39-year-old "Reed Between the Lines" actress told UPTOWN about the point she finally realized this was her life to live...and she started living her own life. 

And it also sounds like she and her boyfriend Bu Thiam (Akon's little brother) may be working on some babies at some point:

Check out the above animated cute flipbook pictorial above of shots from the mag.

And YBF's exclusive outtake from Tracee's gorgeous shoot:

Here's some highlights from her cover story:

On the difference between Carla Reed and Joan Clayton:

“I enjoyed playing a different role. Carla is so different from Joan. And I am at a different point in my life. Joan and Carla are pieces of me. But I am much more than both of them. Joan was a very specific piece of me. She was neurotic, faithless, and afraid, which lends itself to some really good humor. Carla is the evolved version of Joan. She has the love that Joan was looking for, so it creates humor from a different place.”

 

On taking risks:

“As a younger person, my philosophy was jump off a cliff. I realize now that there are stairs and elevators. I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me. I can even ask for help! Not feeling that I have to know everything, and that’s where the growth comes in, in the not knowing.”

 

On her "lily pad moment":

“It’s the time when you come above water and you are aware of your surroundings,” she explains. “I was thinking: Oh my! This is my life? How did I get here? And better yet, what am I going to do with it?”

 

On becoming a mom:

“I got it from my mother. She always wanted children. I feel like she created space on the planet for us before we got here.”

“Oh, God yeah. I want to be a mom. But, obviously, this stuff happens in God’s time and not mine.”

Loves her!  Check out Tracee's behind-the-scenes cover shoot video over at UPTOWN.

Nicki Minaj has dropped the cover art for her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, due April 3.  Though Nicki has been accused of copying Lil' Kim, the album cover reminds me of Kelis' debut...

You decide.

Also in music.....

Don't expect to see Janet Jackson coaching the next generation of stars. She told TheInsider.com that she is "...very flattered that X Factor let me know that I was being considered for next season, but it just wouldn't be possible."

Her team added, "There have been absolutely no meetings between Janet and anyone with regard to X-Factor."

Sigh......hopefully Janet has some acting gigs coming up to put her back in the headlines.

"Love & Hip Hop" breakout star Yandy Smith may be preggers...at least she looks like she may be.  Come inside and see photos of Yandy's possible baby bump.

Yandy Smith was photographed out and about while she hosted a party at Dolce in Elizabeth, NJ recently.

Yandy has not spoken out directly about the baby bump, however, TheYBF.com confirmed the pregnancy through a source close to the situation.

When we asked her directly about the pregnancy rumors, she remained vague.  The closest Yandy has come to saying anything about her "maybe baby" is when she responded to a fan's tweet a while back saying.....

Tamia's latest single, "Beautiful Surprise" is the title track from her 5th album, Beautiful Surprise.

"Basketball Wives: LA" star Imani Showalter may be trading a basketball for a Bible real soon.  Sources say the reality star is now dating Gospel-singer Marvin Sapp.  Get the deets inside.....

HipHollywood reports that Marvin Sapp and Imani Showalter began dating shortly after meeting at Verizon’s How Sweet the Sound choir competition on Oct. 28 in LA.

A source said, 

“The two exchanged information and immediately started corresponding after the show. A week or so later Marvin flew her to Grand Rapids to visit him and so she could experience his church."

The source added,

“They’ve been spending quite a bit of time together. They’re definitely falling in love and I wouldn’t be surprised if they ended up getting married."

Since October, Imani has been spotted with Marvin at various concert dates and preaching engagements as well as the Stellar Gospel Awards.

So far, Marvin's church accepts Imani, but they want her to stop tweeting risque photos! 

One member was quoted as saying:

“If she seriously wants to be with him and plans to become the First Lady of his church, the last thing she needs to be doing is tweeting risqué photos of herself.  That’s just a big no-no!”

Hmmm...

The Randomness:

Mariah Carey returned to the stage last night at Gotham Hall in NYC for the Escape To Total Awards event and private concert.  It was her first show since giving birth to Dem Babies.  She showed off her ever changing post-baby bod with her celeb friends attending as well.

Pics inside, plus Adrienne Bailon's barely there get-up....

MiMi left her apartment to head to Gotham Hall last night with her hubby Nick Cannon on her arm.  And was spotted leaving her concert in this black mermaid style gown she rocked for the evening:

But what really raised some eyebrows was Adrienne Bailon's origami dress...that showed all her ASSets:

WHY??

Honestly, the look was a bit tacky.  Julissa Bermudez...we see you back there.  You didn't tap your girl on the shoulder and ask her if she needed more material for her dress?

Anyways, Mariah hit the stage with her dancers.

And Mel B. was there flaunting her own post-baby bod as well.  Supporting her fellow Jenny Craig girl I see.

She hit the red carpet beforehand with her hubby Stephen in a sexy black gown.

And Nick and Diddy were spotted outside as well.  Fab times.

Here's video of her performing "Shake It Off":
