This YBF chick is known for her funky, eclectic fashion and style. Guess who let her hair loose as she trekked through LAX in neon yellow sneakers yesterday when you go inside…

If your know your stylistas, this one is easy.

It's...

 

 

 

 

 

 photo guesswho2.jpg

Solange Knowles! Beyonce’s fab little sister was spotted looking laid back in a black t-shirt, black leggings, a coral knee-length jacket and neon sneakers arriving at LAX airport, jet setting from New Jersey.  While most people would look like that crazy old lady who thinks she's still 25 and only comes out the house for her hair appointments....Solange made this look super cute.

She’s probably making her way to Coachella Music & Arts Festival as she scheduled to rock the stage tonight at 8:25pm/PST. Stay tuned for video of her performance...

SHE'S MAD: Trina Wants To Leave French Montana (And The House They Share) Because He's Boo'd Up With Khloe K?!

$

We've been asking the question of "Where's Trina?" all week long as her rumored flame French Montanawas boo'd up around L.A. quite openly with Khloe Kardashian.  Frenchie and raptress Trina seemed to be pretty close for several months, even though they constantly denied their relationship.  We all knew the deal....but apparently that deal wasn't too clear between Trina and French.  Because sources say Trina is PISSED he's gallivanting around with Khloe...

 

We saw this coming.  Trina is mad, y'all. 

Sources are speaking to media about what she's feeling (which means she likely told all this herself under condition of anonymity) while French Montana runs off to be with Khloe K.

Since April 2013--a year ago--everyone's peeped the obvious relationship between Trina and French Montana.  They pop up together at tons of events, she's by his side while he does press, she flies to different countries to meet up with him, and so on.

So when dude started doing those same exact action wit Khloe Kardashian--including going to dinner with her and her entire family the other night--over these last few weeks, we're sure Trina was ready to POP OFF.  And apparently, she feels like she got played.  Oh, and she and French were LIVING TOGETHER in New Jersey!

"Friends" now tell TMZ:

Trina and French weren't officially BF and GF -- but we're told they were living together in New Jersey -- sources close to the couple say she was devastated after seeing video of Khloe/Montana all over each other last week at a strip club.

We're told Trina feels like she got played -- She and French were talking regularly up until a few weeks ago when he started working in L.A. on his next album ... and now it's radio silence.

Chile...

And it doesn't help that Trina and Khloe are known to be cool with each other, since Trina and Khloe's big sis Kim are pretty tight.

And let's not forget that French is still MARRIED. (And Khloe TECHNICALLY still is too.)

Like Breezy said, these chicks ain't loyal....

 

BONUS: French isn't letting all this new found publicity go to waste.  He just released his new video for his remix for "Paranoid", which appears on his new Coke Boys 4 mixtape.  Diddy, Ricki and Kiss all make an appearance:

In only a sexy swimsuit by Asherah Swimwear and a Traci Peraza-Williams fur, "The Game" actress Tae Heckard is giving body and pure sex on the cover of KRAVE.

The mag also sees hot "Hit The Floor" actor Robert C. Riley as its cover guy of the 10th Anniversary issue.  Tae is the first female to grace the cover of their mag and she thanked them for the honor on her IG account.

 

Tae is spending the weekend at Penn State for their 2014 NABA Fashion Show.  But her rumored boo Brandon Jennings of the Detroit Pistons is heavily on her mind.  The twosome flirted on twitter all night Saturday:

  photo ScreenShot2014-04-13at120357AM_zpsd99970cd.png

You'll recall that we first eyed Brandon and Tae's flirting over a week ago when she coyly talked about being boo'd up with a certain someone. A quick look at her tweets (and the fact she was courtside at his game), and we saw Brandon Jennings was all up in them. He even held up a shirt with her face on it. By the way, Brandon and Tae's girl Teyana Taylor previously dated as well.

These two....

How sweet!  Just in time for a super soulful SUnday, Drake performed a super sweet act for one of his teen fans in Houston.  Find out how he made a girl's prom dream come true....

 photo 10245440_10152162524189342_83882931706976950_n_zps009627b6.jpg

Kennedy Brown is a 15-year-old school student in Houston, TX.  She has been living with brain cancer for the last two years and is now in hospice care.  And after traveling back to her high school where her classmates surprised her with a prom and prom queen crown....she had another wish granted on Saturday.

Drizzy's on the heels of his Houston Appreciation Weekend where he plans to do something special on yet-to-be-announced dates.  And it's all to honor the place where he got his start (he flew there to meet with Lil Wayne years ago and that was the start of his career).

Drake ended up making his way to H-Town on Saturday.  And while there, he surprised Ms. Kennedy with an in-person visit...after her classmates started a trending hashtag to get Drake to send a message or come for a visit.

The hashtag clearly worked.

ABC Houston reports:

A young girl is in a serious battle with cancer. Her classmates were so moved by her courage, they made sure she got the prom every teenage girl deserves.

Kennedy Brown, 15, was diagnosed with brain cancer two years ago. She's now in hospice care but made a special trip back to Carnegie Vanguard High School where her classmates gave her a surprise prom, crowning her prom queen, and made sure she received an honorary diploma in a private graduation ceremony. But there was one more wish Kennedy had.

Kennedy was hoping for a message or visit from her favorite artist, Drake.

"We would ask all of your viewers to #DrakeForKen so we can get him to come see her or send something for her because that would mean the world to her," classmate Payton Campbell said.

On Saturday, Drake himself made that dream come true, in a personal visit with Kennedy, that left the courageous young girl with a smile that couldn't be shaken off her beautiful face.

He snapped pics with Kennedy and it looked like she had the best day ever:

Sweet!

Coachella fans experienced an epic night of performances after Pharrell, Nas, Jay Z, Diddy, Nelly and Kid Cudi took the stage last night. Check last night's pics and videos of their performances when you go inside...

 photo spl738009_006.jpg

Skateboard P definitely stole the show--despite pretty much losing his voice thanks to the sandstorm--with his surprise guest appearances from the many celebs he’s worked with. P and “that hat” performed many of his solo hits and then he started pulling surprise guest appearances from out of his magic hat. He also had a celeb filled audience of 100,000 Festival goers....with Jay Z, Beyonce, Tyler the Creator, Amber Rose and others watching the show.  

 photo PharrellSet.png

Nelly hopped on stage with P to perform “Hot In Herre,” then Diddy and Busta Rhymes took the stage with P to perform “Pass The Courvoisier.”

 photo SnoopJay.png

Soon after, fans were surprised with a cameo from Snoop Dogg (or Snoop Lion as he’s calling himself these days) for a performance of “Drop It Like It’s Hot” & “Beautiful”.  Then he bought out singer Gwen Stefani, who's fresh off having her new baby, for “Hollaback Girl.”

With a desert storm in full effect, P had to change up his set background because of all the dust/sand flying around. The wind and sand was getting to P as he tried to perform and had him sounding a bit off…and then his voice went completely out.

As Nas’ 20th year anniversary of Illmatic approaches (with the release of his documentary at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 16th), the illest emcee headlined Day 2 of Coachella last night.

 photo NasJay.png

The 40-year-old rapper opened his set performing his debut album Illmatic from beginning to end. As Nas got to track #4 “The World Is Yours,” he cut it short for Jay Z to take the stage with him and they performed their track “Dead Presidents”.  Then Jay performed “Where I’m From” solo.  All you hip hop heads know exactly how epic this Coachella collabo is between these two.

Soon after, Diddy hit the stage for their classic hit “Hate Me Now,"with Nas closing his set with “One Mic.”

 photo DiddyJay.png

Diddy was posted up with Jay backstage saying, "2kings SHAWN and SEAN!!!!! Nigga we made it!! Live from #coachella".
 

 photo KidCudi2014CoachellaValleyMusicArts_2188797YGwl.jpg

And Kid Cudi bought the party to the stage as he danced around in a red crop top and tight cut-off jeans performing his hits, “Mr. Rager” and “Soundtrack 2 My Life.”

Kid Cudi was very excited to hit the stage at Coachella being it was his very first time performing there.  But this crop top though....

Surprise, surprise! Solange hit the stage at the Coachella Music & Arts Festival last night to rock the stage with a mix of covers and some of her own songs.

Solo belted out a cover of Erykah Badu’s“Bag Lady” and a few of her own tracks including, “Sandcastle Disco” and “Losing You.” But the big surprise was when her big sister Bey popped up on stage for an impromptu appearance.

As Solo danced away to “Losing You,” Bey appeared out of nowhere hitting some serious choreographed moves (straight from Solo's video).  They looked like they drudged up some moves from when they were dancing around their living room 20 years ago.  And we loved it. 

Don't act like y'all didn't do that too with your siblings!

The twosome kept their looks just as fun as the performance.  Bey hit the stage in a floral printed Top Shop shirt with matching skirt, while her sis rocked an orange Max Mara Spring leather jacket and matching romper.

Ashanti is giving Tae Heckard a run for her money after she showed up in a long-sleeved hip-hugging blue/gray Celebboutique ‘Amara’ wrap dress paired with Christian Louboutin Unbout illusion pumps at The Top Rank Tweetup at Michael Mina Pub 1842 inside MGM Grand yesterday.

The 33-year-old singer has been putting in a lot of promo work and having plenty of fun since the release of her new album, performing at B.B. Kings recently and dropping 10 stacks at a strip club during her downtime.

Before singing the National Anthem for the Pacquiao vs. Bradley rematch, the Braveheart singer met up with fans for a meet-and-greet, smiling and laughing as she gave out autographed copies of her new album and she also gave one lucky fan a free PlayStation 4.

Ashanti then slipped into a sexy, cut-out black Michael Costello gown to open up the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley2 rematch fight. That dress is HOT. Wonder if Ashanti’s sexy gown gave Manny Pacquiao the motivation he needed to defeat his opponent with a unanimous decision.

Shanti nailed her Anthem performance, which you can check out below:

In a white t-shirt with no pants, white oversized Antwerp-based designer Hyein Seo jacket and Hyein Seo headband that read “fear”, RiRi took the stage with rapper Eminem for their “Monster” performance.

You’ll recall Rihanna wore another one of Seo’s “fear” pieces last month at COMME des GARÇONS fashion show at Paris Fashion Week.

The duo will hit the road this summeron a mini-stadium The Monster tour as a follow up to Em’s previous stadium tour with Jay-Z in 2010.

Lupita was on hand to present the award for Best On Screen Transformation.  And the winner was the man many are secretly hoping will be her boo very soon--Jared Leto.

Once she handed him the award, he flirted heavily, as usual, giving her a lingering hug and saying receiving an award from her is an award in itself.  Mmmhmm...

Meanwhile, performer Rihanna and those legs of hers showed up on the carpet in couture...and looking like this:

The upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey star and Rimmel beauty spokesman who once had a singing career (I mean, is that still happening?) rocked a deep plunging Barbara Casasola dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and an Edie Parker "Hold It" clutch.  And while presenting for Best Shirtless Performance alongside Jessica Alba, Rita also accessorized with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Rocsi Diaz kept it cool in an adorable two piece look by Monica Rose for Lovers + Friends. The "Entertainment Tonight"  beauty rocked the Charlie Skirt and Lucia Crop Top, both in white vegan leather with laser cut hem detailing. The look is from stylist Monica's second collaboration with Lovers + Friends, which debuted this month. Loves it.

We have a sneak peek at the season six "RHOA" reunion special and clips from NeNe Leakes one-on-one interview with Andy Cohen inside...

BRAVO is finally ready to wrap up the sixth season of "RHOA" and we'll get to see what really happened between Kenya Moore and Porsha Stewart. 

As usual, each of the ladies had a "score" to settle and we will surprisingly see Cynthia Bailey and NeNe sitting on opposing sides of the stage and having a few verbal spats of their own. 

Later, NeNe Leakes joined Andy Cohen for an exclusive interview on "WWHL" where she hinted that Cynthia doesn't add anything to the show and should be replaced.  The shade is real......

 

Porsha & Kenya square off at the reunion:

Fresh from their Dominican Republic anniversary vacay, Beyonce, rocking a BASS by Ron Bass sweatshirt (above)and her hubby Jay Z were eyed in Indio, CA over the weekend. The Carters crashed Coachella with surprise appearances for the hip hop heads. Bey hopped on stage with her sister Solange during her set for an impromptu dance routine to Solo’s song, “Losing You.”
 

Also Jay hit the stage with Illmatic rapper Nas (the night before) for an epic performance of their hit “Dead Presidents” and then Jay performed “Where I’m From” solo.

Of course the Carter Clan had to fly into Coachella in style on their private plane:

Rihanna must have had a private jet/helicopter waiting for her outside the MTV Movie Awards last night because the pop princess was spotted partying at Coachella. Still in her Hyein Seo jacket and Hyein Seo “fear” headband she rocked during her “Monster” performance with Eminem, RiRi was spotted taking in the moment, with a blunt in her hand, of course.

And for the concert performance...

The 25-year old singer sang “From Time” and Drizzy made a guest appearance!  The duo shared a long embrace and then Drake shared, “This is my first time at Coachella, by the way, so I want to let you know that it’s a motherf*ckin’ honor to be here with you tonight, and you better make some noise for Jhené one more time.”

Check out Jhene’s concert performance clips below:

In case you missed it, King Bey took a spill during her final performance in Lisbon for her MCWT. Bey is slowly walking up the stairs to take the stage when she suddenly falls. In true Bey fashion, she hopped right back up as if nothing happened and got on with the show. Check it above.

T.I. has leased a new home in Buckhead and it has folks wondering if he's making plans to move out of his marital home?  See pics inside....

 photo 0411-ti-rented-bachelor-pad-04-480w.jpg

TMZ has revealed that "The Family Hustle" star T.I. has leased a home in Atlanta's exclusive Buckhead neighborhood.  The new property is 4 BR estate featuring a large pool, outdoor kitchen and entertainment area.

Sources say T.I. leased the home because it's only two minutes from his recording studio and cuts out his 40-minute commute into the city.

Although we've seen T.I. and Tiny air out their marital woes on social media, we believe this bachelor pad will be used for business purposes.  T.I. isn't moving out.
