Zoe Saldana isn’t letting pregnancy slow her down one bit. Last night, the sci-fi queen hit the carpet at the Cinema Society with Men's Fitness and FIJI Water special screening of Guardians of the Galaxy at the Crosby Street Hotel in NYC.

The Guardians of the Galaxy starlet kept it cute and comfortable in a black silk dress and black pointed pumps with her hair tousled in loose curls.

The mom-to-be (who could possibly be expecting twins) posed it up on the carpet with her co-stars Lee Pace, Chris Pratt and Vin Diesel.

Then Zoe, who apparently isn't scared to pop off on media who she blames for "outing" her pregnancy, met up with her husband Marco Perego as they made their way inside the Crosby Street Hotel to watch her in action.

And of course, she treated her fans with a few autographs. A woman's job is never done.

Remember the crazy drama with Andrea Kelly and the man she divorced just as quickly as she married him? Well, her suspicious ex Brian McKee has moved on....with Momma Dee!  Allegedly.  But, is it all a publicity stunt?

 

Deets inside...

Just a couple months ago, all was revealed when Andrea Kelly's husband she surprised her "Hollywood Exes" co-stars with....became her ex. Andrea married Brian McKee within just two months of getting engaged to him.  And it doesn't seem they knew each other long before the engagement, because NONE of Andrea's co-stars/friends had even met the guy until the season premiere when she introduced Brian as her fiance.

Well, just two months after their split, Brian the "barber" seems to have already moved on with another VH1 chick....Momma Dee!  Yes, really.

Dude is really not helping his case when it comes to folks thinking he's a straight up opportunist...and a few other things.

Momma Dee posted the above pic and the below sentiments last night:

Really though? And yes, the "Queen" of the imaginary castle is well aware of his history. She also tweeted:

Chile...good luck with ALL of that.  Especially because this seems to be a desperate attempt at publicity stunting.

Brian posted the following, making it seem like he and Momma Dee are just "good friends" and she posted their pics to "get people's attention".

 

"Reality celebs" and their "please look at me....wait, why are you looking at me?" tactics. The thirst....

ONE DAY & A WAKE UP: Remy Ma Is READY To Hit The Streets!

After 6 ½ years behind bars, Bronx raptress Remy Ma is on her way to becoming a free woman. Hmm...are Nicki Minaj & Iggy Azalea ready? More inside…

Remy Ma is counting down the hours till she is released from the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women. She captioned the above pic, "One more day and a wake up"—jail slang for how much longer she has until she's a free woman.

In the past weeks, celebs such as Bow Wow, Jadakiss and Busta Rhymes (along with anxious fans) have been making videos announcing the "Conceited" rapper's return, posting them to her Instagram account. Rem was originally sentenced to eight years back in 2008 for shooting her former friend Makeda Barnes-Joseph in the stomach after she accused her of stealing money from her purse.

Last week, the 34-year-old raptress spoke with Angie Martinez on Power 105 from behind bars and she dished on her life inside the big house, how she can’t wait to make her grand return on the rap scene and even talked about the competition…Nicki Minaj. She also talked about hashing it out with her former labelmate Fat Joe, marrying rapper Papoose in prison, getting her associates degree in Sociology while locked up and starring in her own reality show when gets out.

After so many years, is Rem ready to take over the rap game?  She said, "Stand back. It’s not gonna be fair. My pen game is crazy.”

Hopefully SOMEBODY can save us from the current female rap game...

Here are the highlights:

On her marriage to Papoose:“After six-and-a-half [years], it’s kinda serious. You gotta respect that. That’s official. … He’s an official dude. Nobody can ever front on that.”

On Fat Joe: “That was one of my epiphanies that I had. I was like, ‘OK, now I see why he wanted to kill me.’ I understand that. … I can never hate him. I’m the type of person that if I ever loved you, even if you make me mad, I’ma love you to death. I’d never be able to stand there and watch somebody do harm to him.”

On signing a new deal: “I didn’t want to sign anything as major as a deal from [prison]. A lot of things have changed since I’ve been gone, so I wanted to come home.”

On female rap:“I’ve always repped for the chicks or whatever, but I can stand next to the best of the dudes that’s out there. That’s what I intend to do again.”

On Nicki Minaj:“Nick has always been a supporter and vice versa. I like what she does. She’s done wonderful things for females, but I just wish there was more of them. I don’t know what they’re doing letting these guys take over.”

On her reality show: “They’re making me do it. I keep telling them no. It’s too real.”

Check out the full interview below:

Tomorrow morning, she will be a free woman. Welcome Home Remy!

Adrienne Bailon Blasts Ex Rob Kardashian For Cheating & His Family Name "Ruining Her Career", Khloe & Kim CLAP BACK

Well, Adrienne Bailon's definitely stirred up some publicity for herself with her chatfest inside her LATINA magazine cover story.  Check out why Kim& Khloe Kardashian are now coming for her inside...

As she gears up to promote the new talk show "The Real" and a few other projects, Adrienne Bailon is covering the September 2014 issue of LATINA magazine.  And while she's serving serious FACE on the cover, a certain family wasn't feeling what she had to say.

Years ago, Adrienne dated Rob Kardashian.  The 3LW member turned Cheetah Girl was on several episodes of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" with her then-man....and arguably garnered a few new fans from those appearances.

She and Rob broke up after he admittedly cheated on her.  And now, Adrienne is speaking on what it was like having her relationship woes publicized, why she keeps her current long-term relationship with Def Jam exec Lenny Santiago under wraps, and why the "Kardashian name" supposedly ruined her career.

On the aftermath of Keeping Up With the Kardashians:“To be stuck with that Kardashian label, that was so hurtful to me and to my career. I probably realized that too late—not that it would’ve affected my decisions in terms of who I dated, but it would’ve affected my decision to appear on the show. At the time, I didn’t think anyone would even care. To this day, people will still say, ‘You ruined Rob’s life!’ and I’ll think, Damn, I was still playing with Barbie dolls when I met him.”

On why she won’t bring her boyfriend on a reality show: “When I was doing the reality show [Empire Girls] with Julissa [Bermudez], the producers wanted me to show my relationship with Lenny, but I didn’t want to do that; I didn’t want a repeat of what happened with Rob.”

On suffering Rob Kardashian’s infidelity in the public eye:“It’s common knowledge that he cheated on me, and it always bothered me that people were like, ‘Pero, why couldn’t you forgive him?’ Why are women always the ones who have to forgive? If you cheated on a man, he would be like, ‘You’re disgusting, and I want nothing to do with you.’ But women, we’re supposed to be like, ‘He messed up. He made a mistake.’ And, in my situation, it wasn’t like, ‘Oh my God! I made a mistake!’ He strategically planned things out so that he could cheat on me, and that to me was so disloyal.”

On going public with her new love, Def Jam Records exec Lenny Santiago:“I wanted to let people know that we’re not a secret—we’re just private. Secret relationships are shady, and it’s never been that. Five years into our relationship, we’re no longer at the beginning—we’re established now. We’re in a great, strong place where any negativity cast our way won’t affect us. It was a big birthday for him—he turned 40—and I felt like, ‘I want people to know that I love you, and I think you’re freakin’ amazing.’”

Here's her BTS footage below:

But not everybody is feeling her new cover story.  It's no secret that Rib has been going through some things lately--from getting bullied about his weight to him leaving Kim's wedding early and being caught in ALLEGED drug-filled situations. Rob's sister Kim K. took notice of Adrienne's story and offered up some SHADE.

Robs' other big sis, Khloe, RT'd all of Kim's sentiments...and then added a couple of her own:

So, is Adrienne totally wrong for blasting Rob in an interview about what happened in their relationship...or is she well within her right to do so, since Rob admits to cheating on her and the interview IS about her life?

Former "Scandal" star Columbus Short is a wanted man.  Find out what legal slip-up has Columbus ducking and dodging the police inside...

 

Somewhere in LA County, Columbus Short is wanted by the police. A judge issued a bench warrant for him today after he didn't show up for a criminal court hearing in his domestic violence case concerning his wife.

Sadly, this isn't his only "legal" situation. On Tuesday, he was a no-show for a DIFFERENT criminal case but he suddenly appeared in court after THAT judge threatened to issue a warrant.  Sigh....maybe his lawyer didn't tell him that Tuesday wasn't a "2 for 1" deal. You gotta come back tomorrow....

Watch video of Columbus ignoring questions about his tardiness:

UPDATE: This may be why Columbus missed his hearing...he was spotted at CropOver in Barbados!  Tisk Tisk...

Get your "Awwwwww"s ready.  Mr. & Mrs. Beatz posted the above photos just minutes ago with sweet messages to each other on their 4th wedding anniversary (7/31).

We called it back in June, and the Deans are now confirming that they are expecting baby #2!

In a romantic new shoot seemingly inspired by their wedding day, Alicia wears a white grecian-like gown that shows off her protruding second baby bump, much like the one she wore on her wedding day where she also showed off her then pregnant belly.

Swizz rocked a white button up and slacks, much like on his wedding day, but in a more casual way as he gave some kisses to his wife.

Alicia wrote:

Happy Anniversary to the love of my life @therealswizzz !! And to make it even sweeter we've been blessed with another angel on the way!! You make me happier than I have ever known! Here's to many many more years of the best parts of life!

And Swizzy also wrote:

90s R&B group H-Town want you to turn on the "Green Light."  Listen to their comeback single inside....

 

Dare we say it.....the 90s are back.   First SWV came back.  Then JADE came back.  Earlier this week we revealed the return of Hi-Five and now, H-Town, who rose to fame with "Knockin' da Boots" and "Part Time Lover" are stepping back on the scene with "Green Light."

Here's the good news....they've still got it.  If you were a fan of H-Town back in the day, you'll be pleased to hear that their new track "Green Light" captures the essence of that signature sound.  Since the death of Dino, singers GI and Shazam are going forward as a duo on their upcoming album Child Support. Hmm....we can only imagine the backstory behind the album title.

"Green Light" opens with a snippet of H Town’s “They Like It Slow” and closes with Shazam hitting his infamous high notes.  

Turn on the "Green Light":

 

“GREEN LIGHT” will be available on iTunes on Sept.9.

He’s currently making a name for himself on the music scene and he’s ready to top the charts with his sultry new single “Better Half” and upcoming debut album, Cinematic Music.

After some success from his single “Pop Big Bottles” featuring rapper Future and his “No Panties” video featuring “Hollywood Exes” star Nicole Murphy as the leading lady (remember THIS controversy?), London has a brand new track and visuals, “Better Half.” 

When asked  why he chose this track as the lead single, he said,“It’s authentic and true to my artistry.“

In the video, London begs his girl to forgiven his cheating ways and reassures her that she is the most important thing in his life. He’s ready to put his wild, out-of-control partying ways behind him and is now in search for more meaningful moments.

 

London’s debut album Cinematic Music will also include a full-length feature film starring the newcomer, Kym Whitley (Raising Whitley) Imani Hakim (Everybody Hates Chris, The Gabby Douglas Story), Nick Nervies (Project X) and K.D. Aubert (Friday After Next, The Scorpion King). We can expect his album and the film to drop later this year.

Conservative pundit and NY Post columnist John Podhoretz got smacked down on Twitter after he made a disparaging remark about John Legend.

Mind you, John delivered UPENN's 258th commencement address so there's no doubt about his intellectual prowess.

Back to John P.....he tried to "check" John L. after John tweeted about Sen. John Kerry's behaviors with respect to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. His exact words were "Shut up and play the piano"

Never fear.....John's wife Chrissy Teigen (shown above on the streets of NYC in an oversized shirt that exposed her bare breasts) DOES NOT MIND getting someone together on Twitter.  She called out John P for his passive aggressive subtweet and took a quick jab and his "nether" regions.

BABY FAB: Kelly Rowland Slips Up & Reveals She & Tim Witherspoon Are Having A BOY! + Eric Benet & Wife Manuela Testolini Welcome Second Daughter

It’s hard keeping such a big surprise top secret. Ask Kelly Rowland. She slipped up and revealed she and her husband Tim Witherspoon are having a boy. In other baby news, Eric Benet welcomed his third daughter. Deets inside….

Oh baby! Kelly Rowland is uber excited about her new bundle of joy on the way. So much so, she accidentally revealed the sex of her unborn baby with her husband Tim Witherspoon.

During an interview with FOX411, the glowing Caress spokeswoman slipped up and referred to her baby as “him.” When asked about how she’s holding up during her pregnancy she said,

“We’re very excited. So far, everything has been good. I just feel like the baby is already rotten–like literally, my Caress family has gotten him all of his little bathing stuff, his toys–it’s just so cool.”

Realizing she said too much, she let out a heavy sigh and said,

“It, it’s…aw, f--k it! It’s a boy. It’s a boy!”

Kelly quickly got on the phone to let her husband know she let the cat out of the bag. She was heard telling her rep,

“Can you please tell him that I spilled the beans?” Kelly looked down and caressed her growing bump. “I’m sorry, baby,” she said, laughing. “But yes, it’s very exciting.”

Cute.

So has Beyonce offered up any motherhood advice?

“All my girls have given me advice,” she said diplomatically. “I have a wonderful crew of girlfriends. As women, we’re powerful, and women have been so supportive. They always have such nice things to say, whether it’s ‘Oh my gosh, you look so nice,’ or giving me different advice, and that feels good.”

And she also dished on her baby boy’s fly nursery saying,

“My baby’s nursery is fly,” Kelly said proudly. “I just wanted it to feel like a comfortable museum. Almost loft-y like. It’s just looks really cool. He’s got these huge pieces of artwork. It’s just really fresh.”

Nice!

Yesterday, Kelly held a luxe baby shower for her baby boy in Beverly Hills. The beautiful mom-to-be was spotted with a bag of blue and white jellybeans to keep her sweets cravings under wraps. See her fabness here.

And in other baby news…

After welcoming their baby girl Lucia Bella in 2011, Eric Benet (Halle Berry's ex-husband) and his wife Manuela Testolini (Prince's ex-wife) are the proud parents of another baby girl named Amoura Luna. They decided to give her the middle name "Luna" because she arrived on the night of a supermoon.

According to US Weekly, the couple welcomed their second child together on July 13th, weighing in at 6lbs 13oz with a head full of hair. Awww…

The doting dad posted his excitement on his Instagram saying,

"Amoura Luna officially begins her journey of growth, gratitude, abundance, and love. And she has a huge amaZing family complete with two big sisters Lucia Bella and @indiabenet to show her how it's done!! #blessed #overjoyed"
 

This is Eric’s third daughter. He has a 23-year-old daughter named India from a previous relationship.

Congrats to both couples!

It’s an all out war between The Kardashians and Julissa Bermudez! Ever since Adrienne Bailon’s comments about the Kardashians running her career were made public, the reality stars have been battling it out on social media. Read the Twitter feud inside…

The Kardashians are feuding. And this time, it's not with one another.

Kim and Khloe Kardashian came to their brother Rob Kardashian’s rescue after his ex-girlfriend Adrienne Bailon blasted him for cheating and then going in on the Kardashian Klan for supposedly “ruining her career” in the September 2014 issue of LATINA magazine. In short the former 3LW singer said, “To be stuck with that Kardashian label, that was so hurtful to me and to my career.”

Big sisters Kim and Khloe took to Twitter to bash Adrienne for her comments and to shame her for kicking their brother while he’s down. But Rob isn’t so “down” that he can't defend himself. He didn't say much but his actions said many things.

In the midst of their public Twitter spat, Khloe tweeted, “FDB,” which is the title of Young Dro’s track which means “Fuck Dat B*tch.” Rob then hit his retweet button:

But the reality TV family aren’t the only ones coming for people on social media...

Defending her bestie, “Empire Girls” star Julissa Bermudez (who starred on the show with Adrienne) hopped on Twitter herself and had a few choice words for Kim Kardashian.

In a series of tweets, Julissa shaded the hell out of Kim saying Adrienne got the cover on a magazine for hard work while Kim simply “laid on her back for the world to see.” Bloop!

Peep the tweets (read from the bottom up):

The shaaaade....

Rob probably has this on full blast today:

THE WAIT CONTINUES: Remy Ma STILL Not Released From Prison, Possibly Won’t Get Out Today

As we wait for Remy Ma to be released from a New York prison, there are rumors that she may not get out today. Deets inside…

It’s a zoo outside of the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women in New York as reporters and fans are lined up to catch a glimpse of Remy Ma once she’s released from the big house.

Problem is...Rem was supposed to be released from the correctional facility this morning but as you can see (above outside of the prison)…there’s still no sign of the Bronx raptress.

A close source tells TheYBF.com that the 34-year-old MC could possibly be in trouble for doing an interview with Power 105 personality Angie Martinez last week. We hear prison officials are claiming she called into the interview on a three-way call and that is the reason for the possible delay of her release.

If prison officals are delaying her release for her calling Angie, we're not exactly sure why. At the very beginning of the interview you can clearly hear, “You have a VAC prepaid call from Reminisce..an inmate at…” And then you can hear Angie tell the producer to press 3 to accept the call. Which means, there was no use of the three-way call feature.

Also, at the end of the interview, Rem tells the correctional officer that Angie Martinez said “Thank You” for the time on the call and the C.O. gave the OK sign.

You recall, Rem was originally sentenced to eight years back in 2008 for shooting her former friend Makeda Barnes-Joseph in the stomach after she accused her of stealing money from her purse. After serving six of those eight years, she was expected to be released today. Unfortunately for her, there may be a change of plans.

Clearly, something has happened because she has not stepped foot out of the correctional facility. But we have our sources outside of the prison and we'll keep you posted.

And on a magazine cover....

As he gears up his long awaited release of his 12th studio album Tha Carter V, Lil Wayne nabs the cover of the August/September 2014 issue of XXL.

Doesn’t look like Wayne will have any trouble with sales of his new album because his lead single “Believe Me,” featuring Drake is currently at the No.1 spot on Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. Along with topping the charts, Weezy has also garnered some extra attention after he and Christina Milian are seemingly getting closer. Rumors have been circulating that the two are dating but according to Christina, they’re just making music. Mmmhmm...

In the XXL cover story, Weezy sounded off on the authenticity in the Hip Hop game, his highly-anticipated upcoming album, on how he decided to sign Drake& Nicki Minaj to YMCMB and more.

Below are the highlights:

ON THA CARTER V:

“I was feeling the success of Tha Carter I. I felt like people wanted to hear me. I was amped to do that, but then Tha Carter III? I don’t know what happened. It was amazing. And then Tha Carter IV was just unexplainable, and now this one here, there’s no words. I just hope everyone likes it.”

“I’m always feeling like I ain’t done shit. I’m still nervous about Tha Carter V… I’m confident about what I do, but I’m still nervous about what people think.

ON AUTHENTCITY IN HIP-HOP:

“I know I’m authentic because I’m 35 million years in the game. I don’t know where the authenticity is in the game anymore. Today everyone sounds alike, they looking alike, they acting alike, they dressing alike. I came out when everybody was super different. You had an ODB. You had a Busta Rhymes and then you had a 2Pac. You had a Biggie. And everybody was different. Biggie was talking about Mob and Mafia shit. 2Pac was wylin’, talking about West Coast this and that. You had niggas like Meth and Red talking about how high they got and making people laugh. And then now, you got them, them. You got the categories and then everyone falls under it.”

ON PRINCE BEING HIS MAJOR MUSICAL INFLUENCE:

“It was the way he pronounced words and the way he used his voice. It was like if he was playing with a baby. You know if he was playing with a kid. [Imitates a baby cooing] It was the way that he was exploring it. He wasn’t doing it because it was funny. He was doing it because he could make it sound good and exceptional. I realized that I could do that too. He wasn’t afraid of how he sounded because he knew what he was saying and how he was saying it would always sound good.”

ON SIGNING DRAKE AND NICKI MINAJ:

“Call me old-fashioned and country, but with Drake, that was the first time I’d seen someone that knew how to sing and rap. That’s all it was. I didn’t know nobody who knew how to do that. You had those old school singing niggas, where people would do a little eight-bar verse on their songs. But [Drake] was spitting and singing and killing that too. It took a while though. It wasn’t until I heard him spitting on one of my beats when I was like, ‘This fool’s retarded.’ When I hear something that I know I can’t do better? That’s when I’m like, ‘They need to be on the team.’”

“I wanted a female. Every team needs a female to rep your gang. She was annihilating niggas. I mean males. I was like, ‘I have to beef my shit up on that muthafucka.’ She just knocked it out the park from day one. She’s just Nicki. I don’t know whose idea it was, but it was a good idea.”

Wayne’s issue hits newsstands August 12th.
