Jada Pinkett Smith redefines the little black dress in the latest issue of Net-a-Porter's The Edit.  See the gorgeous pics inside and find out how she and Will Smith broke free from the conventional rules of relationships.

As she preps for a starring role a Fish Mooney in the upcoming FOX series "Gotham", 42-year-old Jada Pinkett-Smith posed atop a balcony in New York City in a few sexy black dresses.  The classic pictorial was captured for the glossy mag Net-a-Porter's The Edit, an off-shoot of the fashion e-commerce company, and shot by Chris Colls. 

In the accompanying article, Jada talks about her charitable work and efforts (eg. raising awareness about sex-trafficking), how she and Will have broken the rules about traditional relationships too make their marriage work, how she feels about all the rumors about her marriage, and confronting the aging process ('I look better than ever and I work out less. I’m never in the gym for [more than] 45 minutes').  Must be nice!

Here are the highlights and more ridiculously fabulous pics: 

On loving Will and breaking the rules of relationships:

The thing I’ve realized about sex trafficking is that every single woman is susceptible to being trafficked. It doesn’t matter what your background is, your economic status, what language you speak or the color of your skin. A lot of people want to believe it only happens to poor girls, and that’s not true. When I talk to these girls, I see myself, I see my mother, I see my daughter, I see my girlfriends, I see my sons. There are a lot of boys being trafficked as well, so this is a people problem.”

On how she handles gossip about an open marriage and her sexuality:

The coping technique is knowing what the truth is – there’s no better technique. When you know that what’s going on in your house is so the opposite [of what’s being said], and you also know that when there’s mystery, people fill in the gaps, that’s OK,” she says. “And then you look back at it and look at how creative people can be, and it’s kind of entertaining. We can laugh because it’s so ridiculous. But I get it. I don’t take it personally.”

On playing a villain in the new series "Gotham":

“Playing a villain is really about diving into your own personal shadows. I wouldn’t say it’s easy, but it’s definitely fun,”

On aging:

You know what?” she says with a laugh, “I don’t know if I feel stronger than ever, but I do feel better than ever. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that it’s about being physical every day. You don’t have to go to the gym if that’s not your thing. You can go outside your door and walk around your block. “You can take a brisk walk, a light jog, a slow stroll if you want! I feel like, as I’ve gotten older, I look better than ever and I work out less. I’m never in the gym for [more than] 45 minutes.”

On sex-trafficking:

“When your daughter comes to you and is like, ‘Hey Mom, do you know that there are people selling girls my age for sex in this country?’ My first response was, ‘Oh no, that doesn’t happen here.’ Then I did my research and I thought, ‘How could this be going on here and I not know?’ I felt ashamed and, being a woman in an industry that has a voice, I just felt this enormous amount of responsibility to at least let other people know. ‘Guess what guys? It’s not just happening over there. It’s happening right here.’ I just had to get that word out.”

On her most shocking discovery about sex-trafficking around the world:

The thing I’ve realized about sex trafficking is that every single woman is susceptible to being trafficked. It doesn’t matter what your background is, your economic status, what language you speak or the color of your skin. A lot of people want to believe it only happens to poor girls, and that’s not true. When I talk to these girls, I see myself, I see my mother, I see my daughter, I see my girlfriends, I see my sons. There are a lot of boys being trafficked as well, so this is a people problem.”

On raising Jaden and Willow and letting them make mistakes:

I want my kids to be happy and I want them to be themselves. I was saying to a friend the other day, ‘Remember, our kids are not us.’ They’re not. Sometimes we’re trying to fix things that happened to us or projecting [onto them], and that’s a terrible, terrible trap.”

On the value of women in society and respecting feminine energy

"It’s really tough. I feel like the connection to the value of women on a bigger scale has decreased tremendously. Even though you look and go, ‘Women have so many opportunities,’ it’s like, ‘Yeah, but at what cost?’ Are women valued for being women, or are women valued when they have more masculine qualities? Men and women encompass both female and masculine energies, but it seems like when the feminine is present, it’s not respected.”

Watch hottie Jada this fall of FOX's "Gotham" starting Monday, September 22nd.

He’s back! Martin Lawrence has a new comedy series he’s set to star in titled “Partners.” Also new on television, Tyler Perry has a brand new drama series titled “If Loving You Is Wrong” for the OWN network. Get the deets on the brand new shows inside…

Funnyman Martin Lawrence is returning to primetime television! And he’s starring in a new comedy series on the FX network.  And we're here for it.

From the makers of “Girlfriends” and “Living Single” comes a new show titled “Partners” about two Chicago lawyers from completely different backgrounds who unexpectedly meet in court as they each prepare to face a personal crisis.

Martin plays Marcus Jackson, a kind-hearted community activist going through a heartbreaking divorce. He meets Allen Braddock (Kelsey Grammer’s character), an elitist lawyer who has just been fired from his father's firm. The two form a partnership and friendship forcing each other to find the balance between the ethical and immoral in both their professional and personal lives.

Former “Half & Half” starlet Telma Hopkins is also starring in the series as Marcus’ mother Ruth Jackson.

Peep two funny clips from the show below:

"Partners" premieres Monday, August 4th at 9pm ET/PT on FX.

And on another new television series....

All you “The Have And The Have Nots” fans, Tyler Perry has a new show just for you!

A brand new soap opera is coming to the OWN network titled, “If Loving You Is Wrong” and it seems no one on the show wants to be right. It follows a group of middle-class families who on the outside appear to have the ideal happy home. But behind closed doors, there are layers of deceit, lies and heatbreak.

IndieWire gives a synopsis of the upcoming show:

The season premiere opens in the middle of a torrid affair between neighbors Randal (Eltony Williams, "24") and Alex (Amanda Clayton, "John Carter"). Randal's wife Marcie (Heather Hemmens, "Hellcats") desperately wants children, but Randal's attention is focused on the wife of his best friend Brad (Aiden Turner, "All My Children"). Just down the street, divorcee Esperanza (Zulay Henao, "Single Moms Club") is trying to move on with her life, while keeping a budding relationship with Julius (Octavio Pizano, "East Los High") a secret from her vindictive ex-husband Edward (Joel Rush, "Days of Our Lives"). Meanwhile, neighbor Kelly (Edwina Findley, "Treme") longs to marry Travis (Denzel Wells) who is away on a relief mission in Haiti and who has promised to help her raise her 8-year-old son, Justice. Outside of the neighborhood, single mother Natalie (April Parker-Jones, "Jericho") struggles to raise her children in the inner city. Lushion (Charles Malik Whitfield, "Law and Order"), the father of her son Frank, has returned to town and stepped up to the plate to help. In addition, Natalie grapples with the tough decision whether or not to allow her fourth son, Joey (Matt Cook), to return home once he is released from prison.

Check out Tyler Perry breaking down the show below:
 

And the official trailer:

Tyler Perry’s “If Loving You Is Wrong” premieres Tuesday, September 9th with two back-to-back episodes on OWN.

Will you be tuned in?

Ghost, we mean the sexy Omari Hardwick, is revealing secrets. And we can’t wait to share. Find out how Omari keeps his toned physique, what it’s like collaborating with 50 Cent on “Power” AND reveals something we never knew about his musical side. Get it all and more inside….

If you haven’t been keeping up with 50 Cent’s STARZ drama series “Power,” you need to get your life.

The sexiness that is Omari Hardwick plays “Ghost,” a no-nonsense drug-kingpin who opens a high-profile nightclub in NYC to “hide” all of his illegal activity he has going on behind-the-scenes. The problem is, he’s trying to break away from the world of crime but his wife, best friend and drug associates won’t allow him to. Meanwhile, he has rekindled a relationship with a former love and is in a full fledged erotic affair (again)! Tsk…tsk…

The season finale is on deck.  But before we’re knocked out of our seats tomorrow night, Omari did an interview giving us a better understanding of who he is and revealed a few things we never knew!

During an interview with The New Potato, Omari dished on how he prepared himself to play “Ghost,” what it’s like to collaborate with 50 Cent, how he keeps that beautiful body of his so perfect AND reveals that he writes music. In fact, he’s written a few tracks for Estelle’s new album!

Here are the highlights:

What’s it like collaborating with 50 Cent on Power?
It was an amazing gift. He was so generous and brilliant; I was pleasantly surprised to see how active he was in the process of a major network show. He has remained more present now that they’ve finished the season; that says something. I speak to him twice a week for two to three hours. He’s been a constant. He’s become a really good friend and we’ve learned a lot from each other.

Best advice from him so far…
He never sleeps or eats! He’s constantly telling me that he “whistles while he works.” [He emphasizes] having joy in your work and being able to push through exhaustion because of that joy.

Did you do anything to prepare for your part as Ghost? Was there research? If so, what?
I went outside Queens, NY where he’s from, and I watched loads and loads of documentaries. I watched a lot of The Cosby Show; I wanted to tap into the great father that he is. I’m constantly doing research while playing him.

The greatest discovery you’ve made so far playing Ghost…
How delusional, narcissistic and loving people can be, all at the same time. I never would have guessed you could be all of those things at once.

Is Power an accurate portrayal of the New York club scene? How so?
I think so. It captures the star status of the DJ: the international sound, the techno mixed with rap, and the lavish look (shout out to Anthony Hemingway; he made it look just right). The only thing that is not truthful is the lack of celebrity.

Three things nobody knows about you…
1. I’m a songwriter. I wrote three or four songs for Estelle’s new album.
2. When I’m washing the dishes, if I’m scraping food off the plate, I personify the vegetables. They have to go down the drain at the same time, like a family. I don’t know if that is OCD or I just have a high level of sensitivity about vegetables.
3. I’m secretly a cowboy. I got my first boots from my grandfather when I was five-years-old. Our way of saying “Are you good?” is to say, ”You got your boots?” I wear my cowboy boots a lot.

From start to finish, what would be your ideal food day?
I would say for breakfast, I’m pretty OCD. It’s oatmeal with fresh berries and brown sugar, or toast and egg whites with turkey – and some orange juice and water.

For lunch, I would say pasta to keep the energy going for the day – maybe a bowtie pasta with tomato sauce and meatballs, sometimes with turkey meat. Also some steamed vegetables or a mixed salad with avocado and fruit. I tend to drink water all day, but maybe a ginger ale for lunch. I also like to treat myself to an oatmeal cookie.

For dinner, pecan-crusted salmon if I’m feeling good or had a good workout. If not, just grilled salmon with asparagus and mashed potatoes. If I’m in a rush in Los Angeles, there is a place called Tender Greens that’s really good, fresh and inexpensive.

What are your workout routines?
I switch it up so much to trick my body. I’m doing Bikram yoga this week, but I take a lot of boxing classes. I also do sprints in the pool, a lot of hiking, sprinting up hills, meditation, and isometric work where I’m able to engage my core. I also play basketball when I can. My secret is drinking a lot of water, especially when I’m working.

Check out the full interview here.

After a five year engagement, the busiest person in the morning show world has called it quits with fiancee Nicole Murphy!  Deets inside..

It's over! "Live with Kelly & Michael" host and "GMA"'s newest addition (he's also an NFL commentator during football season), Michael Strahan, is now a single man again.  Both his and Nicole Murphy's reps confirmed the split toPeople magazine today:

The model and VH1 star ended her five-year engagement to the morning television host and retired NFL player, Murphy's rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.

"They love each other very much, but with the distance and work schedule it has been hard to maintain the relationship," his rep tells PEOPLE.

And the timing isn't the best either.  Michael's huge Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony goes down tomorrow night.

Michael, 42, was previously married to Jean Muggli, and they share custody of their twin daughters Sophia and Isabella.  And that split was quite messy.

46-year-old Nicole, who stars on VH1's "Hollywood Exes", has five kids with Eddie Murphy and lives full time in L.A.

We can only wonder if the huge blended family and bi-coastal relationship played a factor in the break-up.  Not to mention, it seems Michael doesn't even have a minute of free time on his hands.

The twosome went through their share of rocky times.  In 2009, a source claimed that Nicole accused Michael of putting a tracking device in her car when he suspected her of cheating.  And in 2012, they allegedly broke up for a bit.

Did they stay together to keep up appearances?  Or were they legit trying to make it work...and life got in the way?  We'll never know...

Future has to dig a little deeper for child support payments to the mother of his 11-year-old son. Meanwhile, Chris Brown is living it up on a jet ski in Saint Tropez. Deets & pics inside….

Rapper Future just struck a new custody deal with one of his baby mamas. And no it’s not Ciara.

Future and the mother of his 11-year-old son Jessica Smith have come to an agreement on visitation and child support payments. Since he’s making a little more cash nowadays, the “Honest” rapper is now paying an extra $1,200 per month in child support for his son totaling $2.800 a month. According to TMZ, Future is bringing in $50K a month. Hmm…50K seems a little low to support the lifestyle he portrays to have. #noshade

They also worked out a visitation schedule on what major holidays he will spend with Future and which ones he will spend with his mother. Jessica is also moving her son to a nicer neighborhood in Atlanta so their son can attend a better school.

Glad they could work that out.

And in other news….
 

Chris Brown is still living it up in Saint Tropez…without his on-again/off-again girlfriend Karrueche.

In fact, he’s partying with a group of friends, including Miami bred video vixen Jessica Aedo.
 

Seems Breezy can’t leave those cigarettes alone. He was spotted puffing on one while riding a jet ski.

Oh, hey...

And again while relaxing on a yacht with some of his homies.

The good life.

After roaming the streets of NYC this week, Rihanna trekked it to Chicago to surprise Lollapalooza fans last night.

Six days before they head out on their mini “Monster” tour, Eminem surprised fans bringing out Rihanna during his set. The two took the stage at Chicago’s Grant Park for for the first day of Lollapalooza 2014 to perform their collaborations “Love The Way You Lie” and “Monster.”

Before ending their set, Rih sang the vocals for Em’s 1999 hit “Stan.”
  

After the show, Rih hopped on Twitter to thank Em and the fans:

Thank you @Eminem and Chicago for letting me share this moment with you at #Lollapaloozapic.twitter.com/oKd5qG8wiL

— Rihanna (@rihanna) August 2, 2014

Peep their performances below.

"Love The Way You Lie":

"Monster":

“Stan":

RiRi and Em kick off their "Monster" tour August 7th-8th in Pasadena, CA then hit East Rutherford, NJ on August 16th-17th and end in Em's hometown of Detroit on August 22nd.

And before she touched down in Chicago…

The Pop princess was spotted leaving her Manhattan apartment flossing her toned abs and killer legs. As she made her way to the airport, Rih rocked a red and black plaid coat over her G4Life bra from her own clothing line, black shorts, a pair of red and black Nikes and a black Delvaux leather handbag.

She had her hands full juggling a yogurt, her iPhone and a presale copy of Diane Von Furstenberg's new book "The Woman I Wanted To Be" to read while on her flight.
 

And in the studio last night...

Although she got out a day later than her scheduled release, Remy Ma didn’t let that stop her from getting right back to work. The Bronx raptress was released from the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women yesterday afternoon after serving 6 1/2 years for shooting her former friend Makeda Barnes-Joseph in the stomach over accusations of her stealing money from her. 

After visiting her P.O., getting a fresh wig and a new fit, she made her way to the studio with DJ Khaled.

Khaled posted the pic above with the caption, "@therealremyma fresh out ! I'm telling rem GOD IS THE GREATEST! The world excited you home ! Rem back ! Bless up! @wethebestmusic"

Remy's husband Papoose (whom she married while incarcerated) made sure his woman was fresh after getting out of prison. He gifted her a brand new pair of Tom Ford knee boots and picked her up from the jail in a white Lamborghini.

And he also had a cake to celebrate her homecoming. He said, "Congratulations to the #Queen happy 2c you walk out that cage!!!!!!!!!! Time 2 begin a new chapter It's your time #therulersback wish strong was here 2c this #therulersback #therulersback #ripstrong"

Welcome home Remy...

Yahoo Insider caught up with the fab dancer and when asked about how Bey’s handling the rumors she said,

“It shows the love, it shows the affection. The love, the hate, the relationship, real things that go on in a relationships.”

Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian-West are partying it up in Ibiza. And you know who is two steps behind…Kris Jenner. Peep their arrival to an Ibiza party spot and throwback vacay pics of North West in Mexico when you go inside…

Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian-West are living it up in Ibiza. The newlyweds were spotted hand-in-hand dressed in all black as they made their way into Amnesia in San Rafael with mom Kris Jenner tagging along behind them.

And look who else is overseas for the party…Justin Bieber. Before they hit the club, they all celebrated Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci's 40th birthday bash where Kanye performed. 

Then they all met up at Amnesia to keep the party going...

Ciara caught a break from her motherly duties to party it up with Riccardo for his birthday. And she’s looking hot post-baby in all that Givenchy.

CiCi snapped a pic with Kim during the party.

And then the "Body Party" singer caught up with supermodel Naomi Campbell. Looks like they are getting it in.

And look who else was there...

Diddy and Cassie (who have been aboard a yacht in Ibizia with Naomi this week) also came out for the festivities. Looks like Kate Moss had one too many drinks. Ha!

And before they went to bed, Kim schooled us on what side chicks be like. She posted a picture of Kanye knocked out in the bed with the caption, “Side chicks be like.…” Ummm…pot meet kettle.

In other Kardashian-West news....

Kim shared a few intimate photos of adorable North West in her little bathing suit while on vacay in Punta Mita, Mexico.

Look at little Nori! Those cute legs and that face!

Last week, we learned one-year-old Nori took her first solo steps. She took off as soon as she got out of the water after her swim lesson. Too cute.

Beyoncé& Onicka just woke up and posted up "Flawless"....the ish-talking filled REMIX. Peep the shots at THOTS and Bey's Elevatorgate explanation inside...

While taking a mini-break from the On The Run tour, Beyonce tapped Nicki Minaj to help her floss all over the just released "Flawless" remix. And both ladies came out the gate swinging...unapologetically.

On the remix, posted to Beyonce's official website, Mrs. Carter has some things to get off her chest.  While adding in new verses and arrangements on the interlude-like track from the Beyonce album, the diva says:

"These THOTS can't clock me nowadays..."

And yes, she even addressed Elevatorgate...with zero apologies:

"And we could go around and get some good karma, but no.

We escalatin', up in this b***h like elevators. Of course sometimes s**t goes down when it’s a billion dollars on an elevator."

That last line she repeated twice to make sure y'all heard it.  She wrapped up her bars saying:

"You wish I was your poundcake...You wish I was your baby mama."

"Say what you want I'm the sh*t....I want everybody to feel like this tonight."

As usual, Beyonce is mixing tough words that many may take as strikes at other women...all while uplifting others by saying they should feel the same way about themselves.

With Bey interrupting about "thirsty b*tches", Nicki spits some bars about why she believes she's the queen of the rap game, why she and Bey are "every hood n*gga's dream" and her usual raunchy lyrics about her "cookie" being top notch. :

"Yo, like MJ doctor, they killing me/Propofol/I know they hope I fall/But tell 'em winning is my motherf*ckin protocol/ Cause I score before I ever throw the ball These bitches washed up and aint no soap involved..."

We wouldn't be surprised if that last line was a subtle shot at Remy Ma...since folks like to reference soap when talking about folks who are locked up.

Southern belle Bey also included a sample of Outkast's "SpottieOttieDopaliscious" on the horn riff. Peep the remix below:

We feelin' it?!

We showed you Remy Ma in the studio with DJ Khaled yesterday, and now we have what they were cooking up. Hear Remy’s post-prison remix inside….

The Ruler, so they call her, is back! And she’s ready to take the throne.

Remy Ma didn’t waste anytime to get back into the studio, teaming up with DJ Khaled to hop on “They Don’t Love You No More” remix. And it seems Rem is coming for the female MCs in the game…particularly Nicki Minaj.

The Bronx raptress spits:

“When y’all was on the TV, I was with the PVs/I listened to your CD, damn you really wanna be me/Don’t care if your name buzzin’, you know who the queen be.”

“These rap chicks try to stay away from me/Maybe cause I caught that case they afraid of me/Rem got that phlegm spit it crazily/And it’s a fact I’m everything that they portray to be.”
 

She goes in on the 2nd verse:

"Some say she nice but Reminisce nicer/I can feel the tension, please don't hype her/Tell her stay in her lane before I side swipe her/Droppin' that bird shit I'd hate to windshield wipe her."

 

Ouch!

Seems Nicki knew Remy would be coming for her. She dropped a subtle diss on the newly released “Flawless” remix with Beyonce, rapping:

"Yo, like MJ doctor, they killing me/Propofol/I know they hope I fall/But tell 'em winning is my motherf*ckin protocol/ Cause I score before I ever throw the ball These bitches washed up and aint no soap involved..."

Sounds like the female rap game is ready to heat up!

Take a listen to the fresh-out-of-jail raptress’ post-prison remix below:

The hardest working man in daytime television was up past his bedtime last night to accept his nomination into the NFL Pro Football Hall of Fame. Peep Michael Strahan's induction speech inside…

Talk about bitter sweet. "Live with Kelly & Michael" host and "GMA"'s newest addition Michael Strahan accepted his nomination into the Pro Football Hall of Fame last night. And as exciting as that news is, it comes just one day before calling off he and his ex-fiancee “Hollywood Exes” star Nicole Murphy called off their five-year engagement.

The former couple noted distance and grueling work schedules as the reasons behind their split. Michael is one of the hardest working men in television right now. He’s doing "Live" Kelly Ripa on ABC, he just started his "GMA" gig and he's also a Fox sports analyst during the NFL football season.

But on a happier note, he accepted his nomination into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and received his distinctive gold dinner jacket. The former defensive end (who spent his entire 15-year career playing for the Giants) was the last one to give his speech at the NFL Class of 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony at Fawcett Stadium in Ohio, and he thanked all those who helped him along the way.

During his speech, the single-season sack record holder thanked all of the Hall of Famers that surrounded him, the New York Giants, coaches, one of the greatest pass rushers in the NFL Lawrence Taylor and reflected on his Super Bowl XLII win in 2008.

Michael noted this weekend as being "the best weekend of my life."

Peep his full acceptance speech below:

And here’s Michael getting his NFL gold jacket presented by his close friend Fox Sports writer Jay Glazer:

Congrats to him!

Jamie Foxx and Dwyane Wade's fiancee Gabby Union were on hand for the NBA baller's Fourth Annual Fantasy Basketball Camp in Florida this weekend.  Check the pics inside, plus what Tiny's saying about her and T.I.'s marital status...

At the Westin Diplomat in Hollywood, Florida this weekend, Miami Heat baller Dwyane Wade hosted men who have always wanted to sharpen their b-ball skills at his 4th annual fantasy basketball camp.  Labeled as the "ultimate man-camp", it's an elite, weekend-long event for campers who were willing to take their game to the next level while “showing him what they got.”

Good friend Jamie Foxx and Dwyane's effortlessly gorge wife-to-be Gabrielle Union were front and center for the big weekend:

Cute.

Tameka "Tiny" Cottle hit up The Insider recently and gave some straight tak about what's going on with her and T.I.  Reportedly, their VH1 show "The Family Hustle" has been temporarily put on hold.  So where does that leave them...and Floyd Mayweather? 

From The Insider:

"I feel like the Floyd thing is behind us and we just want to go forward and move positive. Me and my husband are in a good place and I just want to keep moving," says Tameka. That "Floyd thing" is, of course, about an altercation at a Fatburger restaurant in Las Vegas in May, where Tameka Harris' husband, rapper T.I., reportedly attacked Floyd Mayweather over rumors of a Mayweather affair with Tameka.

The fab starlet had plenty to celebrate. SyFy’s Sharknado 2: The Second One (which premiered on her actual birthday, July 30th) scored record ratings this week, reaching 3.9 million viewers for its premiere telecast.  The so-cheesy-it's-good instant cult classic made history as the most watched movie in network history. How's that for a birthday gift?!

50 is looking damn good on Aunt Viv!

Viv hit the carpet with a few of her friends, Access Hollywood anchor Shaun Robinson, “Family Guy” voice actress Jennifer Tilly, and “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Brandi Glanville.

And with longtime friends Star Jones...and those fishnets...and Vanessa Bell Calloway.

Tisha Campbell and her husband Duane Martin came out to celebrate and got kissy on the red carpet. We hear Tisha gave a special performance during the party.

21 Jump Street vet Holly Robinson Peete and husband Rodney Peete were all smiles on the carpet. Like Vivica, Holly will be celebrating her 50th birthday on September 18th.

“Castle” star Tamala Jones looked cute in her printed romper and sandals.

“Hollywood Divas” star Elise Neal came out to party with her girl.

And actor Michael Jai White (who is starring in an upcoming urban-themed stripper flick named "Chocolate City") and his lady friend hit the carpet before heading in for the party.

Fab times!

Caribana Weekend in Toronto didn't go off without some eyebrow raising things happening.  Check our reality stars Tahiry and Deelishis twerking for the crowd...and for Fabolous...inside...

Emily B may want to close her eyes for this one.  While Fabolous was on stage at Kool Haus in Toronto the other night, "Love & Hip Hop" chick Tairy--who was in town to host a party--hopped on stage to twerk something:

She said to Fab, "Why you talking shit while you still cuffin?"  Oh?  Was that a subtle way of asking why he's trying to get at her...while he has a girlfriend?

"Flavor of Love" chick Deelishis also hopped on stage to use her main resource...her ass.

Also there to perform was Trey Songz, posing it up above with DJ Self of Power 105.  Peep him and Fab rocking the stage together:

BONUS: Thanks to this little nugget from a few months ago, we learned that Fab and Tahiry use to date before she was with Joe Buddens.  But clearly, they were still quite friendly with each other within the last year as BK rapper Troy Ave. revealed in an interview with The Breakfast Club. 

At the 8:38 mark, he (and Angela Yee) said that while Troy was "hanging out" with Tahiry in Miami, Fab called her to help bail him out when he was about to get his car snatched due to a license situation.

Hmmmm....

In an exclusive interview with TheYBF.com, NeNe Leakes gets candid about her messy spat with Wendy Williams, severing ties with Cynthia Bailey and how she hopes her HSN clothing line will open doors for other Black women.  Keep it real with the fabulous queen of "RHOA" inside....

NeNe Leakes, arguably one of the most successful reality stars of all-time (she reportedly commands a million dollars per season from starring on BRAVO’s “RHOA”) saw one of her wildest dreams come true a few days ago. As she hawked her exciting new HSN line“NENE By NENE Leakes" to millions around the country, NeNe had an epiphany and was able to marvel at the dreams she’d accomplished.

“Listen, this was just a dream of mine and now I can scratch it off my bucket list. I’m a Black Girl. I’ve done Glee, I’ve done The New Normal, I’ve done The Celebrity Apprentice and I’ve done DWTS. I’ve been on every major talk show. I’ve been on all the major networks. I’ve done so many things. I’ve co-hosted many talk shows (The View, The Chew, The Insider). I did Zumanity (In Las Vegas). I sit back a lot of days and think damn. You know those things your mom or grandma may have said to you…”Reach for the stars.” It sounds so cliché but you TRULY can do anything you want to do if you put your mind to it. Everything I think of I really accomplish. I see it through.”

During an exclusive interview with TheYBF.com, conducted shortly after her departure from HSN studios, NeNe gave up the goods about her talk show dreams, creating her million-dollar brand, the line of affordable luxury womenswear on HSN and some of the most controversial topics that have kept her in the headlines. Nothing was off-limits. From how she feels about her place in life (“I feel inspired. I feel blessed"), the nasty war of words with Wendy Williams (“She’s trying to sabotage my career"), outraging the LGBT community with the “queen” word (“I wasn’t being derogatory”), why other chicks in the industry fail (“too many of them just want to be cute and wear weave down to their knees"), and the fallout with Cynthia Bailey (“It hurt”) – NeNe did not hold back.

And while she will discuss the 180 degree change her “NeNe” character has made on RHOA, don’t waste her time with questions about chicks who aren’t her co-stars.“Marlo Hampton is NOT a cast member. She’s never been one and never will be one.” Ladies and Gentlemen……Here’s NeNe!

On creating “NENE, The NENE Leakes Collection” for HSN:

I want to make women of all shapes and sizes feel confident and fabulous. My line is affordable luxury for every woman. I want every woman to feel like they can walk into a room and own it. I just try to do things that other women aren’t necessarily doing. Obviously there are a lot of women who have clothing lines but they don’t necessarily have them in the right places. I wanna be that girl that kicks that door down for us Black girls. Because I feel like if I win…you win. I think when one of us walks through the door of opportunity we can leave it open for the next girl.

On the origin of the Wendy Williams drama:

The thing with Wendy Williams has been going on for a long time. I did not know where it was coming from. Honestly, I’ve done her show a lot. I’d like to think I’m in the running for being on there more than anybody (else). When she first launched her show, I stayed with her the whole hour. I helped her and supported her and then all of a sudden it just switched on me. She started saying things about me. And I know Wendy does a lot of gossiping…that’s how she started her career. But to just start sabotaging me. I felt like she wanted to sabotage my career because she was really saying nasty things about me. And I have done nothing to Wendy. So for me…it was not about the bag….

On TheYBF.com we told you about Wendy blasting NeNe for defacing a $15,000 Birkin bag and calling her tacky.

I was like where is this coming from because I didn’t do anything to you. The last time I saw her, I was nice to her. When she had her 500th show I ‘d given her a gift (a $3,200 Celine Bag). Just to support another Black sister. I gave it to her and said I’m so proud of you. It’s amazing. You’re a black girl sitting here doing your own talk show. You’re opening up the door for me to do my own talk show. I was very supportive of her. I gave her a full-on speech and hugged her. And GENUINELY meant it. And all of a sudden she was bashing me. 

In the pic above, NeNe went on to "deface" ANOTHER expensive bag in honor of Wendy and her gossiping antics.

I felt like she’d maybe heard something, I won’t say what the things are but I just thought she may have heard something about me. Nothing negative on my part, but about where my career could be going. And I thought she was just hating or sabotaging. You know I thought she would have been like I don’t like NeNe’s bags but she’s coming out with a clothing line on HSN you guys should check it out. I was like damn…

On reality TV friendship vs real friendships….and breaking up with Cynthia Bailey:

The first thing viewers need to know is that they are watching TV. And two, a lot of these friendships are reality TV friendships. I have girlfriends I have been friends with for years…and some of them were in my wedding. But those girls are not on the show. And obviously when you join a reality show you have to form friendships for those shows to go on. And when you fall out with one girl they just make you form another friendship. And to the viewers it looks kinda crazy…I get it. But I signed on to be a part of this show. All I can do is really go on. Sometimes when you do a show like this you really form friendships. I really did form a real friendship with Cynthia. I had never met Cynthia a day in my life until she signed on for this show. And when you do those shows they have to send the girl through somebody so you’ll do a scene with me and then the next thing you know she’s my friend. And I’d never met Kenya Moore a day in my life until she stepped her butt in Atlanta and they signed her to be a housewife. I’d never met her and never knew anything about her.

And people watch these shows and be like “But you girls were friends.” Let’s keep it real honey I’ve only know this girl 6 months. So I don’t know what she went through…I just met her. I don’t know her from anybody.

So when these friendships fall out, people are hurt. And people are watching…but you don’t really know the full story. All you can really do is get up and keep going. I’m all about keeping it moving.

On being a good friend, while others aren't:

People judge every day and sometimes I think people don’t understand that at the end of the day we are human and have feelings. Some of these things hurt. I feel like I’m a great friend…so when people say Nene’s fallen out with this person, it really hurts me. Obviously it hurts me. I had a wedding and I put women in my wedding (Cynthia/Marlo) who I really trusted. So to have a fallout with them on television...its hurtful.

 On sparring with Andy Cohen and the LGBT community about the controversial use of the word “Queen” during Season 6:

“I got a lot of comments from the LGBT community about “You said the word queen!” Well what you need to do is...you stop calling each other queen and then you won’t have to worry about somebody else calling you a queen. Now…I DO GET IT. They were saying “queen “ is ok but it’s how you said it. Well don’t start all that either like telling me I have to say it with a smile, slap your thighs and toast you with champagne. And as far an Andy is concerned, he’s used the word many times. They have a show called “Fashion Queens” where they’re sitting up there with lipstick, heels and weave in their hair. So what you want me to do chile? You sending so many mixed messages….. I don’t know what you want me to do? Call you a king? I wasn’t being derogatory.

On loving her LGBT fans:

For me….for anybody to come at me about some gay stuff was just crazy to me. I am the gayest queen there is. I hang out with all kinds of gay guys. I’ve hosted gay events, gay pride, gay everything. I’m like…girl bye. Don’t even come at me like that. I can’t! I never meant it to come off in a derogatory way. It just wasn’t meant to offend.

On why some females don’t succeed in the industry:

A lot of the girls in the industry just want be called cute. Oh. I’m cute. My weave is down to my knees. Ok girl. While you're worried about being cute I’m about go over here and get this contract! Too many of them want to get together and take selfies and wear Louboutins. I can’t! They don’t have their own identity. I’m about my business!

 On if she’d ever invite another BRAVO housewife onto the RHOA:

“Our show is very different. There isn’t another African American girl to pick and our show is all African American. I honestly don’t think a white girl could survive on this show.”

On Nene Season 1 vs. Nene Season 6:

NeNe from season 1 compared to season 6 is definitely a different Nene. Those shows only come out once a year and so many years have passed. When I started this show, my youngest son was in the 3rd grade, now he’s in the 10th grade. I started this show now knowing a lot about reality TV. I’d been acting for a bit….but I was new to reality TV. Over the years I’ve grown and I’ve become a better person. I’m wiser.

On NeNe “the celebrity” vs. Linnethia Monique "NeNe" Leakes”:

Now, Nene on TV is definitely different from Nene Leakes at home. I’m very private. I don’t go to a lot of events. I’m just very private. I hang out with my husband. He’s my BFF. I think I’m a cool chick, but I’m not that girl just hanging out. I work. I am NOT that girl popping a bottle anywhere. I love to go shopping…I love to travel. I love to go out to dinner. But I don’t wear makeup when I’m not on television. I’m just a regular girl.

On the trade-offs of fame:

“I miss going to the grocery store and going on aisle 2. I miss my privacy. For me, you or anyone – to have your privacy ripped away from you is very difficult. But I feel very blessed to be able to do what I do. And before – you were just judged by your friends and family. Now you’re judged by the world.

In addition to promoting her HSN line (available in sizes 2-24), NeNe still has a few items on her bucket list. She says she and her husband Gregg are in talks for a collection of menswear items and one day she'd love to star in a dramatic role.  Based on what we seen her make happen thus far…we don't expect anything less.

Watch a snippet of Nicki Minaj's"Anaconda" video and Rick Ross' full-length "Supreme" clip inside...

We've got a snippet of Nicki Minaj's upcoming "Anaconda" video and it looks like it will create as much controversy as the single's art work.  CLick above and you'll see Nicki's rear end is the video's primary focus. And from the clip, we see that she knows how to "make it clap."
