While you were at Easter Sunday service or getting ready to grub down on family dinner, President Obama, First Lady Michelle, and Sasha & Malia headed out of the White House looking flawless on their way to church.

Check the pic inside...

Looking so fresh and so clean in his cream linen suit, President Obama walked out of the White House today looking fly with his flawless First Lady Michelle.  Around 10am, the First Fam headed to the 19th Street Baptist Church, a 175-year-old church with an African American congregation who is known to welcome both Democrats and Republican politicians alike.

Check out their departure and arrival above.

As for what they've been up to lately:

The Prez was snapped at an outdoor meeting and the pic was posted to his Twitter account with the caption, "Hello Spring."

And Mrs. O had some Easter fun with some kiddies, and will also host the White House Easter Egg Roll tomorrow morning on the White House Lawn:

And recently, FLOTUS was interviewd by student Nene Sy about empowering women & girls for the @WomenInWorld Summit.  Nice!

Now that Part 1 of the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion special has aired, we can already discuss the epic foolery that popped off between Kenya Moore and Porsha Stewart...since it happened on this episode.

While Porsha set in her glistening Ralph and Russo London dress, and Kenya in a gorgeous red J. Mendel, the tension built up immediately.

So when Kenya pointed her scepter into what could be argued was Porsha's personal space, and then screamed at her through a megaphone calling her names, we already knew this ish wasn't going to end well.

Kenya got in a few shots at Smarty Pants of the Year Porsha asking her to spell s-c-e-p-t-e-r. *Snickers*  And Porsha went in about Kenya's Casper The Friendly Boyfriend, as Phaedra called him.

And once Porsha had enough of that scepter and that megaphone, she snatched Kenya's hair and dragged her to the ground...then rolled around screaming at HERSELF for letting it get to that point.

Check out all the clips below, including when host Andy Cohen acted all ~concerned~ and went to both ladies' dressing rooms to soothe them.  And when he told Porsha to go home.

So...some may say (even the law may say) that a variation of assault is entering a person's personal space themselves or with an object. Porsha said out loud several times that she wanted Kenya to get out of her personal space with that scepter and megaphone--and her requests were ignored by Kenya, Bravo's production team and Andy Cohen.

Since Porsha is contractually obligated to come to and stay at the reunion show, was she simply reacting out of being pushed into a corner? Was she technically "assaulted" first by that scepter and that megaphone?

It's sad to see the hate spread on Easter Sunday the day Christ died for our sins. To the people anticipating a "beating" I pity your souls

— KENYA MOORE (@KenyaMoore) April 20, 2014

Or...Is Porsha totally wrong for becoming overtly physical and letting Kenya's words take her to a place of violence.....no matter if/how she was provoked?  Kenya never actually touched Porsha, so did Porsha have a right to lunge at her and take the tension to a whole new level?

You decide....

While some folks celebrated Easter, others participated in National Marijuana Day (4/20) yesterday. Check out pics of Rihanna and her bestie Melissa Forde (M. Dollas) as they inhale inside...

After partying it up atThe Return of #ToXicDayParty in Hollywood yesterday,  Rihanna and her best bud Melissa hit the beach to celebrate national weed day.

Stoners everywhere unite on 4/20 in celebration of marijuana...and we all know how RiRi loves her Mary Jane!  It was no surprise the she and M. Dollas burned a few blunts in celebration.

Rih posed in a black see-through mesh bodysuit with marijuana pasties covering her lady lumps along with an oversized denim shirt and Silver Spoon Attire kitten ears beanie.  The Bajan beauty also rocked marijuana shaped earrings, green-framed sunglasses and a marijuana plant clutch.

Rih and M. Dollas lit their blunts as they danced to reggae music while hanging out at the beach. 

The twosome got elevated as they watched the sun set with their feet up.

Check out video of Rih singing and grinding as she relished in the moment:

After weeks of speculation, Kenya Moore is finally about to speak about her "RHOA" fight with castmate Porsha Williams.  Read her statement inside...

The highly publicized brawl between  Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams aired during last night's "RHOA" reunion episode and now Kenya has released a statement about the incident:  

During the taping of the Reunion Episode for the Real Housewives of Atlanta, I was violently attacked by Porsha Williams. The episode, which aired tonight, Sunday, April 20, 2014, was taped in front of an audience of over 50 people, which included cast, crew, guests and executives, who served as witnesses. I called 911 to report the incident. The Atlanta police conducted an independent investigation, which included viewing the raw footage of the incident. As a result, Porsha Williams was charged with battery. The authorities will decide her fate, not me.

There are many inflammatory statements made by cast members to and about each other particularly during the reunion tapings. Many have made untrue, denigrating, disparaging, and inflammatory statements against me in an attempt to provoke me, but I have never reacted in a violent way. My intellect and my brain are my most powerful weapons—not my fists. If people get so angry that they lose control and admittedly “black out” and resort to violence, those persons must be held responsible for their actions. Being a cast member on a reality show does not absolve people of their rights.

After being repeatedly attacked by an abusive boyfriend at the age of 17, if someone puts their hands on me, I will not just let it go. With that said, I sought self-defense training developed for the Israeli military. I’ve also been trained in weapons. I can take someone down in three moves. It took discipline for me not to respond in kind. As violent responses escalate, they can quickly result in severe injury or even death.

Being the second Black woman to be crowned Miss USA, there are little girls who look up to me. I would never want those girls, my nieces, or my future children to see me fighting anyone. That’s the lesson we should all want to send, especially to young people—that no matter how angry someone makes you feel by what they say to or about you, violence is never an option. #stoptheviolence

 

SPEAK ON IT:  Are you siding with Kenya or Porsha on this one?  Also...Kenya's been trained in weapons and military-styled combat? (BLANK STARE).  Did they skip over defensive hair-pulling at basic training?????

Beyonce, Jay Z and Blue Ivy spent their Sunday afternoon with a private Easter egg hunt and the  Easter bunny. See the cuteness inside…

Aww…how cute is this?!

After partying hard backstage for the second weekend of Coachella Saturday night, The Carters enjoyed their Easter Sunday with daughter Blue Ivy and their very own Easter bunny.
 

The uber stylish fam got white hot fresh as they spent some quality family time having an Easter egg hunt for Blue, complete with her very own Easter bunny.

Bey looked cute and comfortable in a white two-piece short set with gold bunny ears and gold sunglasses, while Blue rocked her little gold bunny ears with her white and gold Easter dress. Papa Jay kept it casual in a printed button-up, white jeans and Timbs as he held little Miss Blue’s hand.

The Carters have been full of surprises lately, including unexpected appearances at Coachella and a rumored joint tour this summer.

A few days ago, Bey was spotted in a wedding dress on the back of a motorcycle with Jay Z on the set of a new project. We predict the pic is from the duo’s “Part 2 (On The Run)” video or visual content for their upcoming rumored tour…or both.

Too cute!

Canadian rapper Drake was spotted in his hometown, dining out with friends...sans his boo Rihanna. Check the pics and find out what Drake said about Jay inside…

After seeing Drizzy and Rihanna practically together everywhere lately, it’s a surprise the two skipped out on celebrating Easter and 4/20 together. RiRi spent her 4/20 with a private smoke session with her bestie M. Dollas while Drake trekked back to his hometown where he was seen grabbing a bite to eat in Yorkville, Toronto with some friends.

After dining with hometown friends, Drizzy hit up the Toronoto Raptors vs. Brooklyn Nets game where he sat courtside at the Air Canada Centre.

Drizzy spoke to TSN commentators as he gave commentary of the game and suddenly took a jab at Jay Z and his beloved Nets saying:

“This [Raptors] is the people’s team. Jay is somewhere eating a fondue plate. it’s our time, we got to keep it competitive”

Seems the "Trophies" rapper is going to keep coming at Jay for his love of the finer things in life.

Chris Brown’s assault trial in Washington, DC has been delayed. Also, Outkast will hit the stage to headline at the BET Experience At L.A. Live event. Read all the deets inside…

After Chris Brown’s misdemeanor assault trial started in Washington, DC today, things were quickly brought to a halt after Breezy’s bodyguard was found guilty of misdemeanor assault.

Chris’ bodyguard, Christopher Hollosy, admitted to punching the victim after the man allegedly tried to get inside of Breezy’s tour bus outside the W Hotel near the White House last October. The judge in the case ruled he "was not justified" for hitting the man and found him guilty.

In an effort to avoid self-incrimination, the bodyguard plans to appeal his conviction and decided not to testify in Breezy’s trail. Hollosy is a key witness in the “Loyal” singer’s case so Breezy's trial has been delayed until Wednesday.

Days after his horrid mugshot was released, his on-again off-again girlfriend Karrueche, his mother Joyce and rapper Bow Wow showered Chris with support as they were spotted arriving to court on Friday.

If Breezy is convicted, it could land him in jail for up to four years.

YBF actress Keke Palmer just landed a new gig as a talk show host and media personality Wendy Williams is gracing the newest cover of UPTOWN magazine. More inside…

Wendy Williams got glammed up for UPTOWN Magazine's April/May 2014 Travel issue as she donned an array of elegant gowns.  During the UPTOWN interview, Wendy dished on her rise to the top in the media industry, racism, and the loves of her life…her husband and son.

On her career:
“I regret nothing in my radio career, nothing,” says Williams, who also struggled with substance abuse during those times. She’s publicly stated that she stopped using drugs in the late ’90s because she wanted better for herself, which included being a wife and a mother. “I had to be that person back then to be the person I am today. The person who was on the radio then was authentically me. We all have our sloppy, greasy side. My original Wendy listeners, here in New York, they grew up with me. They come up to me all the time and say, ‘Oh, I have been listening to you since I was 12.’ I feel proud. I am glad that I have been able to evolve.”

On her husband and her son:
“He is my manager, co-executive producer of the show and my biggest productive cheerleader. I love him.” On January 20, 2014, while on-air, Williams broke out in tears, sobbing that her son, Kevin, Jr., 13, does not like her. Despite that emotional episode, she says she is not envious of her son’s strong relationship with his father; in fact, it makes her proud. “I love that he has his father. It’s a great thing, a black boy and his black father,” she says before tearing up. She starts to cry. While reaching for a tissue, she whispers, “Sometimes, I will stand at our front door and watch Little Kev and his father drive off until I see the last puff of smoke from the car’s exhaust. Then, I say to myself, ‘It’s good.’”

On racism:
“It makes me so proud that my black mother and my black father can sit in my audience and the camera can zoom in on them and, without them saying a word, the world sees: ‘Oh my God, there is a full black family!’ And my parents have been married for a hundred years! And, when my black husband and my black behind can pull up to my black son’s school for a parent-teacher night and they see a full black family, that is really important. We need to discuss race not necessarily because I am being followed in the mall because someone knows that I am Wendy Williams, but because I am a black woman in the mall at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.”

 

Here are the pics from her fabulous spread:

Fab!

“R&B Divas: L.A.” star Lil Mo and her new boy toy Karl “Dynamite” Dargan were seen hugged up as they walked the streets of New York City today.  See their photos inside....

As the season 2 premiere of “R&B Divas: L.A.” approaches, singer Lil Mo, in a rather interesting outfit and her new man Karl “Dynamite” Dargan were spotted in the streets of NYC.

The self-proclaimed “Hood Kim Kardashian” and her boxer boyfriend have been very open with their relationship after we revealed she had left her gospel singer husband Philip Bryant. The two have been parading around together showing off pics of their whereabouts on their joint-Instagram page.

Mo has been very vocal that she plans on marrying her much younger beau because she’s not going to just be “anyone’s baby mother” admitting, “When we humping we getting married.” Oh.

We told you about Mo’s new mixtape No Sh*t Sherlock (which dropped April 18th) and in her “Loyal” cover featuring raptress Da Brat she goes all the way in on her estranged husband Philip Bryant.

In the song she raps, “He said I ain’t livin’ right/Call Iyanla to fix my life/Don’t be mad cuz a young boy cuffed your wife/It only took one try and I ain’t think twice.”

Damn!

Mo continued,

“Look back and now you look dumb. Won’t you go tweet that, since you a thumb thug. See that a*s in court, yeah, my second divorce/N*gga f*ck your life/N*gga f*ck yo fort/What the f*ck I look like beating that dead horse/N*gga you is a corpse/N*gga you just lost…catch it.”

“When a real n*gga love/a b*tch n*gga gonna be mad about/You shoulda been loyal.”

Check it:

The season 2 premiere for “R&B Divas: L.A.” (with new castmates Chrisette Michele and Leela James) will debut on July 10th at 10/9c on TV One.

Easter Sunday was yesterday and we have a round up of some of your fave YBF celebrities enjoying the White House Easter festivities and cute pics of them spending time with their loved ones inside…

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama kicked off the 136th annual White House Easter Egg Roll event today on the South Lawn at the White House with this year’s theme being 'Hop into Healthy, Swing into Shape.’

On a beautiful sunny afternoon, President O and FLOTUS were spotted cheering on White House guests in a health and activity themed Easter egg roll race. The Obamas also enjoyed a fun filled day of live music, cooking, sports and storytelling with an expected 30,000 rotating guests.
 

President O sneaks in a quick kiss on his wife’s cheek on the White House's Truman Balcony with the Easter Bunny close by.

And our Commander In Chief really got into the characters as he read the annual reading of Maurice Sendak's children's book, “Where the Wild Things Are.” Cute.

Celebrity stylist June Ambrose attended the White House Easter Egg Roll event with her son Chance and daughter Summer.

Seems Big Sean is back to business as usual. After news broke that the G.O.O.D. rapper called it quits with his now ex-fiancee Naya Rivera, Big Sean was spotted at the White House alongside actor Jim Carey after his performance of “Right There” with Ariana Grande.

Columbus Short released a lengthy statement apologizing for his TJMS interview.  You know, the one where he called Tom Joyner the N-word and gave the most awkward interview ever.  Read the statement inside...

Following the "Scandal" finale, Columbus Short gave a very awkward interview to The Tom Joyner Morning Show that had many fans wondering about his mental state.

By now, we've all read reports about his violent streak and threats made against his wife...and the interview simply took it to another level.  From his flippant attitude to his use of the "n" word....he had some explaining to do. 

He has now released a statement where he's apologizing to his female fans, and also says he rarely using the "N" word and reassures viewers that he WAS NOT under the influence.  Here it goes.... 

 “TJMS, My sincerest apologies for the confusion over my appearance on your show last Friday morning. I am a long time supporter and admirer of The Tom Joyner Morning Show and I was looking forward to an opportunity to speak with you and your audience. Unfortunately, the early morning (approximately 5:45AM Pacific Time) following a late-night event had me at what some describe, less than my best.

To clarify a few of my statements:

1. I rarely use the “n” word and I could not have picked a worse time to do so. I deeply apologize for directing it towards you.

2. Regarding my statements about women being insecure, I am a strong believer and supporter of women and I am always amazed by all that our better halves accomplish. I come from a family of strong black women and I would never discredit or minimize their success. I have the deepest respect for women, their strength and innate beauty. To suggest anything else was never my intent. I simply wanted to emphasize that women have no reason to feel that way and my song, “Gave Ya”, is meant to convey just that.

3. Lastly, just to clarify, I was not high, drunk or otherwise under the influence. I was simply exhausted. After a long day, the early call threw off my schedule.

This was no excuse – you and those who support me deserved better. Please accept my deepest apologies for any misunderstandings for that morning call. It would be an honor to appear on the TJMS in the future to set things right with your audience.”

Does this change your opinion about him?

Nicki Minaj is finally dishing on why she switched up her look recently and is now giving us her natural steez.  Plus, the rapstress hit the premiere of her upcoming flick The Other Woman last night in two different looks.

Check it inside....

Rocking a cream Alexander McQueen ribbed leaf knit gown ($2,835), Nicki Minaj served up a flawless nude face, her long natural tresses and claw-like nails for her big Hollywood premiere of Twentieth Century Fox's The Other Woman.

She showed up on the red carpet at the Regency Village Theatre Monday in Westwood, California showing off her ASSets in the curve hugging dress:

And she posed it up with co-stars Leslie Mann, Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton. 

And at the afterparty:

Nicki arrived at the W Hotel in an interesting get-up.  Can't decide what this is...or if we're feeling it.  Almost like she plans to double as a belly dancer as the entertainment for the evening.

We feelin' it?

Nicki also spoke to "Good Morning America" this AM to dish about her new role as "Lydia" in The Other Woman.  And while her character she plays is A-OK with dating married men, she says Onika Maraj is nothing like that when it comes to married men who date multiple women.

"No no no, I think marriage is sacred. If he wasn't married, I may play the game. I may enjoy that game. But if he's married, then you gotta go."

After talking about how nervous she was the first day on set, she said the pressure of getting her lines right in front of Cameron Diaz and getting her angles right in front of the camera were serious.

And while "Lydia" rocks a wig in the movie, Nicki is no longer doing that crazy wig ish herself.  She revealed:

"Before my first album even came out, I said that on my third album, I would wear my natural hair.  I did the wigs, I did the colors, I did the heavy makeup and all that stuff.  And maybe I'm more confident in myself.  I definitely think [having more confidence] is a valid argument."

Mimi Faust and Nikko Smith explain why they made a sex tape and offer "shower rod" tips in a new interview.  Watch the piece inside and get Lil' Scrappy's response to Diamond's accusations that he abused her. 

Mimi Faust and Nikko are speaking out....as if their sex tape hasn't said enough! In a new interview, they explained that they enjoy taping their sexual escapades and had no intentions on their sex tape getting out.  Also, Mimi said VH1 didn't have anything to do with the tape's production (so the lighting/camera angles/hair/body makeup was all done by herself and Nikko?), Stevie J's opinion doesn't matter, Joseline is jealous that she doesn't have the shine anymore and yes, she loves Nikko.  Apparently having this type of "shine" is something to be proud of....

They ended the interview by offering "shower rod tips" (Mimi says your partner has to be able to support you) and they hinted that they MIGHT be working on a book about sexual positions. 

Of course.....

Lil' Scrappy and Mama Dee (shown above with "Mob Wives" star Renee Graziano who we're wondering about--what's different with her face?) are pissed about an interview Diamond did with The Breakfast Club. 

Let's rewind back to the interview itself.   Diamond (who'll appear on T.I.'s upcoming Oxygen-reality show "Sisterhood Of Hip Hop") made a few shocking allegations on The Breakfast Club about Lil Scrappy abusing her and she said Mama Dee ruined her credit!

On Lil Scrappy being abusive:"You wouldn't see me near him [Scrappy]. He just flawed. He's a b-tchass n-gga. No b-tchassness. [...] He was mentally abusive, physically abusive. We fought. You ain't beating my ass. We gon' fight! So if that's what you wanna call it, but if you fighting a n-gga, there ain't but so much you can win. He got some issues and need some help."

On Scrappy saying she cheated on him with Soulja Boy and Mama Dee ruining her credit:"We wasn't even together. We were living together but we were separated. I was supposed to move. I got his mother [Momma Dee] an apartment. And then she trashed and messed up my credit at one point in time. Terrorize, wrote all on my posters, 'Trick, Slut, Hoe.' I co-signed for her a condo. We [Diamond and Scrappy] were already separated and I was helping him raise his child. I was like, 'You got baby girl. Y'all keep the house and I'll get me an apartment. It's nothing.' That's when Momma Dee had her situation and she was getting put out. So I'm like, 'Sh-t, I damn sure ain't finna be in no house with Momma Dee.' I get her an apartment. 17 Street Lofts in Atlantic Station. Work, stack my bread a little bit more and get me a spot....He was already doing his thing. It's not my fault that I stepped out with somebody with who was younger, flyer and had more money. That sounds like a personal problem to me."

When the Prince of The South and The Queen of....the Prince...heard about the interview - they were not happy.  The two promptly talked to TMZ and said Diamond is a "lying industry ho." Scrappy added that he bought "her $20K teeth and her fake ass."  Scrap also claims he NEVER hit Diamond and her story about Gucci Mane slapping him is BS.

She revealed to Vanity Fair, “I was once a foster-care child at a very young age for a very short time, but it definitely did impact my life.”

When asked what message she would like to deliver to the evening’s attendees, she said, “I would tell them that, when they go home at night and take off their makeup, they should remember that they are just as human as the 12,000 foster children displaced here in New York.”
 

After getting caught between Kenya Moore & Porsha Stewart’s brawl (which resulted in a major nip slip) on the reunion show, “RHOA” star Cynthia Bailey was all smiles on the carpet in a black satin Kithe Brewster gown.

As his debut disc Testimony tops the charts, Def Jam's August Alsina is speaking to TheYBF.com about sharing his journey, some of the media's biggest misconceptions about him and why he understands Chris Brown's struggle.  More inside....

August Alsina is having a very good week.  He first caught our eye (and ears) in 2012 as a new breakout artist collabo'ing with Lloyd on August's song "Sucka".  And now, his debut album is making waves.

After years off hustling to break out of New Orleans' 9th ward, the Radio Killa/Def Jam artist has a gold single under her belt ("I Luv This Sh*t"), a chart topping album (Testimonysold 64K copies and debuted at #2 On The Billboard 200), and fans around the world are connecting to his mix of gritty story-telling, trap beats and R&B swag.  During a 1-on-1 no-holds-barred interview with TheYBF.com, August comments on Chris Brown's legal troubles, clears up some of misconceptions and shares why he decided to be so revealing on his album. 

On celebrating the success of Testimony:

"I’m finally being able to tell my story. Not only my story…just everybody in the struggle. Any struggle. Any shape, form or fashion. I finally got an outlet to speak on. I put so much of myself into the album that I really just want you to walk away with a piece of me. A piece of my soul. That’s really what’s its about. The album is for the people. A piece of my story. A piece of my heart. A piece of motivation."

On growing up in New Orleans (before and after Hurricane Katrina):

“New Orleans ain’t the same. It’s a different world out there now. There are different people in New Orleans that done came from all over. It’s gotten way worse. More gritty. If you came up in New Orleans….you’d know the difference."

On vulnerability:

"Before I put the album out I thought to myself…how much do I give to the people? How much do I say?  [I realized] my reality and my come up is not only my story...it’s my family’s story. But I never wanted anyone to feel like I was telling our business.

At a certain point, if you believe in your artistry, there’s nothing to stop you from telling the truth. I just got to the point where I’m gonna tell the truth because I know that it may help some people."

On brutal honesty:

"I think that God sends you through a whole bunch of sh*t so you can speak on it. Not everybody lives your life and not everybody can do what you do. Not everyone knows your experience – if you can share and touch the next person why not do that?"

On the importance of f*cking up:

In each situation I always do what I feel is right. In any situation where I make a decision I'm gonna stand on it. If I make a decision there ain't no taking it back. I did it. It takes a f*ck up to know to do it the right way the next time. It takes a f*ck up to grow.

On the song "FML" (Fuck My Life) and Chris Brown:

It's like making it out of a situation, but still being trapped. At the end of the day, we’re all using each other to come up. Some relationships are real…some are fake. People build you up on a platform just to see you fall and tear you down. That’s were 'FML' comes from. Chris is a great guy....nobody understands. They just build you up so much. And everybody makes mistakes. The fact is...he makes his [mistakes] on tv. Ya’ll see my f*ck ups. I don’t see ya'lls.

On the biggest misconceptions about him:

A lot of people think I'm rude and cocky (remember the "106 & Park" outburst?). I'm far from that. I'm a real f*cking person. People make that assumption because I walk into a room and I don’t have too much to say. But to be honest…this is real life for me. This is my lifestyle….I'm not gonna hold a random conversation with a random person.
