Stay away! Pat Houston is scared for her life, so she filed a restraining order on Bobbi Kristina’s husband Nick Gordon. Find out the deets on the latest Houston family drama inside…
The Houston family drama continues! Bobbi Kristina’s aunt Pat Houston (above on the right) has filed a restraining order on Krissi’s husband/adopted brother Nick Gordon.
Can’t say that we blame Pat for filing a protective order against Nick after his recent antics. Nick has already fought Whitney's rapper nephew Gary Michael Houston at Pat’s daughter's Sweet 16 party. Months after the fight, Nick hopped on Twitter and went completely nuts on Gary calling him a “b*tch” and said Pat started "acting fake" after the death of Whitney Houston.
NOW… Nick is posting pictures of machine guns and pistols all over his Twitter account. Not to be left out, Krissi is riding for her man and has joined in on his Twitter activity.
Check the tweets:
Bobbi Kris added then deleted:
Then retweeted Nick's comment and implied "their lady" use to call Pat the same:
Goodness!
TMZ reports Pat filed the protective order claiming she felt threatened and feared for her life after seeing Nick’s Twitter posts. He has been ordered to stay 200 yards away from Whitney’s sister-in-law.
Craziness!

We're always in the mood for an adorable baby post! So check out Baby Sebastian Thomaz and his mom Amber Rose having a cutesy mommy-and-me breakfast date in L.A.....
How cute! In the sunshine of L.A., Amber Rose, sans her hubby Wiz Khalifa who performed in Houston yesterday, threw on a floral Marciano playsuit to take the couple's baby boy out to breakfast yesterday morning. Even though the paparazzi who snapped the pics blurred out his face, Baby Bash and his camo pants give off the most adorable vibe...
And mommy Amber gushes over him constantly, as any mom would. She posted the below pic recently saying, "He's passed out. Clearly Sebastian has a drinking problem."
Well, they're not totally bad. They just act like it sometimes. Ashanti put on her bad girl hat and dropped $10,000 at the strip club this week. And Keyshia Cole is done with putting up with people coming at her sideways.....and she's released her album title that shows she's no longer playing games.
Check it all inside....
Still fresh off celebrating her new Braveheart album, Ashanti hit up Perfections strip club the other night with DJ Envy. And she dropped stacks of cash on the skrippers. Envy said:
@ashanti at Perfections!!!!! Crazy 2night!!! She threw 10k.....
Looks like she's still got her money after going independent. Do you boo.
And Keyshia Cole wants everyone to know she's only about her music these days. The 32-year-old (almost) divorceè revealed her sixth album title, Point of No Return:
In between working on her new shoe collection with Steve Madden and swearing off all interviews after that ishstorm with V103 in Atlanta...Keyshia's getting back to what she knows best. You ready for those painful emo-ballads we've come to love her for?
Baltimore Ravens RB Ray Rice has been indicted for allegedly beating his fiancée unconscious. Find out the shocking details inside…
Another story of a successful athlete who can’t keep his hands to himself. Allegedly. Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice has been indicted on third-degree aggravated assault charges after he got into a huge brawl with his fiancée/child’s mother Janay Palmer.
According to ESPN, Ray & Janay got into a physical altercation attacking each other at the Revel Casino and Hotel in Atlantic City, N.J., where he allegedly knocked Janay unconscious.
TMZ obtained video footage of the 27-year-old NFL player allegedly dragging his fiancée’s lifeless body by her arms and laying her down outside of an elevator at the hotel. But it was unclear of what lead up to this exactly. But dragging a seemingly lifeless body this way...of someone yu love...is simply problemnatic in itself.
Check it, in case you missed it:
In February, Ray was arrested and charged with simple assault-domestic violence and his fiancée was charged with simple assault. Now he faces a third-degree crime conviction, which could land him in jail for a minimum of three years and a fine up to $15,000.
As of right now, Ray doesn’t look like he will be kicked out of the NFL. Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti revealed Ray will still have a spot on the team, despite his recent arrest saying, "This is part of the due process for Ray. We know there is more to Ray Rice than this one incident."
ESPN reports Ray’s attorney Michael Diamondstein told The Press of Atlantic City that the couple, sadly, does NOT want to move forward with the case.
The "Real Housewives of Atlanta" filmed their reunion show today....and reports are pouring in that a brawl went down. Like, a serious physical DRAGGING and beat down occurred. And it was between the two princesses of the show: Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore.
Deets inside...
It was only a mater of time before Porsha put aside her goody-two-shoes-sweet-innocent persona and let her arch nemesis on the show HAVE it. You can tell that ever since that Mexico trip she's been ITCHING to get at Kenya.
So it's no surprise reports are confirming that is was little Ms. Porsha who set it OFF on Kenya Moore at Thursday's "RHOA" reunion show taping in Atlanta.
"There was a major physical altercation between Porsha and Kenya," an insider tells Us. "To the point that Porsha beat the crap out of Kenya, dragged her across the stage by her hair, and gave her a major beatdown."
Porsha beating the crap out of somebody? Only semi-believable. But throw in the factor of how much she and Kenya obviously cannot STAND each other, and the extra factor of how EXTRA Kenya tends to be on reunion shows....it's a pretty damn plausible story.
We reached out to Kenya for confirmation and are awaiting a response. The reunion show is always combative, but we have a feeling Kenya's side of the story will include her feeling totally unfazed by the situation.
At least the ladies tried to keep it non-physical all season. But it looks like ish boiled over at this reunion, unfortunately. And we're sure Bravo will NOT go out of its way to cut out this fight either.
Beyoncè wrapped her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour Thursday night with an emotional salute to her fans. Check out Bey breaking down into the "ugly cry" inside...
When the MCSWT rolled into Lisbon, Portugal last night for its last stop after a year of touring, King Bey showed the audience her emo-side.
Right before her closing number she said on the mic:
'When I first started the tour, my baby was not even walking yet. I just want you to know that I am so lucky.'
Awww. She continued:
'I want a spot[light]. I want them to see me. If you all don’t know, tonight makes 132 shows.
'Tonight is the last show of the Mrs. Carter Show. We started a year ago and I want to say this has been such a journey.
'In the past year, we’ve been through so much together. The Super Bowl, shooting the videos, all of these shows.
No word on any extra US dates, but chick seems to be done for now. She raked in over $100 million in ticket sales, so chick deserves a break.
And...Is it time for baby #2?

Mariah celebrated her 44th birthday yesterday. And her husband Nick Cannon knew exactly what to cop her. Diamonds! Check out her shiny butterfly inspired b-day gift inside, and what he revealed about their sex life...
Wel, hello DIAMONDS. Mariah Carey has an eternal love for butterflies it seems, so her hubby got her a few that sparkled...in bracelet form. So THIS is why dude works so hard and keeps 10 jobs. (Just kidding.)
They showed off the present on Instagram, and gave us a peek inside the private birthday party with bubble gurus (their twins) Roc & Roe:
How cute!
Nick and MiMi spent her b-day in Tampa to help the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino celebrate their anniversary. She also donated a dress from her "Obsessed" video:
And a few days ago, Mr. Cannon got pretty cheeky about his past celebrity sex list. While visiting Big Boy's Neighborhood, he was asked to dish on his sex list. Nick said there were too many to name (Oh?), but said he could do 5:
When told he could just name five, the star had his list ready: 'That's easy. OK, Mariah Carey, Christina Milian, Nicole Scherzinger, Selita Ebanks, oh, Kim Kardashian.'
Once people had their memory jogged about he and Kim (we sorta forgot ourselves), Nick said about her: 'You just forgot because there's been a lot of people since me. She's a great girl though!"
Bloop. As for his intimate reveal about wife & soul mate of 6 years MiMi, he said about them sexing for the first time on their wedding night:
'[The first time was] on our wedding night, honeymoon style in a house in the Bahamas. That's a real woman right there to make you wait.'
'I'm a pleaser. I went in going, ''She going to love this''.... I f****d the s**t out if her.'

Rick Ross hit up late night television last night appearing on "Chelsea Lately." Check out their funny interview inside…
We know Chelsea Handlerloves her some black rappers (i.e. 50 Cent), so it was no surprise Chelsea was all over Rick Ross as he came out on stage. Chelsea greeted Ross with a quick hump before they sat down for their chit chat. Possibly trying to make 50 jealous?Not sure if he would care… So it's probably just her usual black-rapper-flirtatious-stunts she keeps up...
Rozay made a stop on “Chelsea Lately" last night to promote his fifth #1 studio album Mastermind, his franchise chicken restaurant (he’s opening up 25 new Wing Stops), his “beef” with 50 Cent (said he’s done with talking about 50) and how he has a personal assistant whose sole job is to roll his blunts. Somebody's got to do it...

Nas appeared on a panel at Georgetown about the state of Hip Hop. Watch the discussion inside and get the deets on Lil Wayne's guest role on Adult Swim's "The Boondocks."
Last night, Nas and Georgetown professor Michael Eric Dyson sat down for a discussion about hip-hop at Georgetown University's Gaston Hall.

Also....Nas will be performing Illmatic in its entirety tonight and Saturday evening at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. for "One Mic: Hip-Hop Culture Worldwide." Illmatic XX, the 20th anniversary edition of Nas' debut album, will be released April 15.
In other music news...
Lil' Wayne will voice a character on season four on the "The Boondocks" starting on April 21st at 10:30PM EST on Adult Swim. While we're not sure if Wayne's voice will become a series regular, we know Wayne is very familiar with animation. In 2007, we appeared on "The Boondocks" in an episode titled “Invasion Of The Katrinians.“
In other news, series-creator Aaron McGruder has confirmed that he has left the show to focus on his new project, BLACK JESUS. In a letter published in the LA TIMES, he said,
"As the world now knows, 'The Boondocks' will be returning for a fourth season, but I will not be returning with it," McGruder began. "I'd like to extend my gratitude to Sony and Adult Swim for three great seasons." "I created 'The Boondocks' two decades ago in college, did the daily comic for six years and was show runner on the animated series for the first three seasons," McGruder wrote. " 'The Boondocks' pretty much represents my life's work to this point. Huey, Riley and Granddad are not just property to me. They are my fictional blood relatives. Nothing is more painful than to leave them behind.
"To quote a great white man, 'Hollywood is a business.' And to quote another great white man, 'Don't hold grudges.' "What has never been lost on me is the enormous responsibility that came with 'The Boondocks' -- particularly the television show and its relatively young audience. It was important to offend, but equally important to offend for the right reasons. For three seasons I personally navigated this show through the minefields of controversy. It was not perfect. And it definitely was not quick. But it was always done with a keen sense of duty, history, culture and love. Anything less would have been unacceptable.
"As for me, I'm finally putting a life of controversy and troublemaking behind me with my upcoming Adult Swim Show, 'Black Jesus.' "
Zoe Saldana can add a new title under her resume as she was announced as the newest face for L’Oréal Paris. Plus, Queen Latifah talks being a boss in JET magazine. See Zoe’s promo pic and Queen’s cover inside…
Zoe Saldana has landed a new gig! L’Oréal Paris has announced the Rosemary's Baby star as their new celebrity spokeswoman.
The 35-year-old hottie dished to PEOPLE on how every woman can rock a rep lippie and having to go through trial-and-error when finding your perfect shade.
She said:
“In the years I’ve been on this planet, I’ve grown to believe that every woman on this earth can rock a red lip,” she says. “It doesn’t matter how big or how thin their lips are, how dark their skin is, or yellow or light or pink, there’s so many shades of red, you can find the right shade. Women just look so beautiful and powerful when they’re wearing red lipstick.”
The newlywed is super ecstatic about her new title saying, “It puts the stamp on, like, ‘Congratulations, you’re finally a real woman!” She joins other L’Oréal spokeswomen Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez. Nice.
In the video below she talks about being an “ugly duckling” when she was younger and then owning her beauty:
And on a magazine cover…
Queen Latifah looks gorgeous on the cover of JET magazine where she dished on how she capitalized on her career, going from a rapper to owning her own production company (Flavor Unit Entertainment), being a CoverGirl spokeswoman and hosting her very own television show.
“I never had a boss. When you are responsible for yourself you can do whatever you want—I took full advantage of that.”
Queen also talked about adopting a kid one day, the influence of her mother, speaking up for gay rights and more.
Here are the highlights:
Your latest incarnation of The Queen Latifah Show was a huge risk. Why bring in back after a 13-year hiatus?
I had a lot to share and wanted to add some positivity to daytime TV; something fun, energetic and with a little more flavor. Personally I’m in a much better spot. I’ve done a lot of growing and I’m okay with being in one place for a prolonged amount of time. Before, I was a bit more nomadic.
Settling down is a big change. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is a significant other, kids and the white picket fence. Do you have someone special in your life right now?
No comment!
Okay, but what about kids? You’ve spoken about adoption in the past.
It’s something I’m exploring. I’ve wanted to adopt since I was 18 because I grew up with friends who could’ve used good parents. Maybe it’s my romanticism of after-school specials where someone would adopt a child and life would be great afterward. I have a lot of love to give.
You’ve spoken about the influence your mother has on who you’ve become. What’s her best advice?
Thank God I was blessed to have the kind of mother she is. She taught me about how to be a lady, but also how to be independent. She taught me things I should never allow a man to do, like put his hands on me. She gave me everything a girl needs to inspire confidence.
You had a major coup this year with the Grammys’ controversial same-sex marriage ceremony. What made you get involved?
It was a beautiful moment and not a political decision. It’s a question of what’s right and wrong. Two people who’ve been together should have the right to be married. I knew it would make a statement and I’m fine with the statement it made.
Check out Queen Latifah’s full interview in the April 21st issue.
