SNEAK PEEK: Michael K. Williams & More Get Gangster In "Boardwalk Empire" Season 5

We're just days away from the final season premiere of HBO's "Boardwalk Empire".  And we've got sneak peeks at Michael K. Williams, a.k.a. Chalky White, and more on their gangster ish in season 5…

Throughout the last four seasons of "Boardwalk Empire," Atlantic City's Prohibition-era leader, Enoch “Nucky” Thompson turned the east coast and beyond inside out in order to keep money flowing while the sale of alcohol was forbidden. While partners in crime protected and supported—sometimes even turned on--him, gangster Chalky White (played by Michael K. Williams) always stayed loyal. Until he didn't. Throughout all the betrayal, run-ins with the KKK and turmoil in his and his daughter's lives, Chalky survived and is ready to flourish on his own in the next era.



In the upcoming season, which takes place in the depths of the Depression in 1931, Nucky begins to plot a post-Prohibition future, and it looks like Chalky is as well.

What to expect from the last and final season: Chalky is ready to take advantage of an opportunity to extricate himself from a difficult opportunity, Narcisse (played by Jeffrey Wright) attempts to do business with major mobsters Luciano and Siegel in Harlem…and it backfires with plenty more twists.


Season 5 of "Boardwalk Empire" premieres Sunday, September 7th at 9p on HBO.


Check out a few of the first sneak peeks below:

Chris Brown Cops A Plea Deal, Pleads GUILTY In D.C. Assault Case + UPDATE On Suge Knight Since Pre-VMA Shooting

We have some updates surrounding Chris Brown's D.C. assault case and the aftermath of Suge Knight’s injuries after getting shot at a pre-VMA party. Deets inside…

 photo ChrisBrownCourtDateeDm5mij86qDl.jpg 

Chris Brown is totally over his pending assault case in Washington D.C. So much so, he copped a plea agreement and pled guilty to misdemeanor assault in court this morning, telling the judge, "I would like to say to the court, I’m sorry." He was sentenced to time served.   You’ll recall, Chris and his bodyguard were accused of hitting and punching Parker Adams outside of theW Hotel near the White House last October.

But he isn't out of the woods yet.  The "victim" has filed a $1.5 million civil lawsuit against Chris and his bodyguard. The man's attorney said his client suffered a fractured nose and other injuries to his face as a result of the altercation.

The “Loyal” singer’s misdemeanor assault trial had been looming for some time, after it was delayed back in April when Breezy’s bodyguard was found guilty of misdemeanor assault. His bodyguard was a key witness in his case, so since he decided to appeal his conviction and not testify for CB’s trail, Chris decided to wash his hands with the whole ordeal and plead guilty. The “New Flame” singer has his new album X coming out soon (which he needs to promote), so he’s trying to head out on tour as soon as possible.

 photo ChrisBrownCourtDateR4yAc5UbyZ4l.jpg

And you know who was right by CB’s side for his day in court...yep! Karrueche. The two were mobbed with questions by photogs as they walked out of the H. Carl Moultrie I Court House of the District of Columbia. Check it:

 

And speaking of Chris Brown...

Death Row Records founder Suge Knight is nursing his wounds after he was shot six times at a pre-VMA party hosted by Chris Brown.

Suge was released from the hospital after being treated for three days. Now, he's showing off his war wounds in pictures obtained by TMZ. If you can stomach bullet holes tearing through flesh, you can check them out here.

MOTHERLY STROLL: Ciara And Baby Future Seen WALKING Through The Grove With Pregnant Kelly Rowland

R&B starlets Kelly Rowland and Ciara were spotted at The Grove yesterday. See them on their motherly stroll inside..

 photo ckelly2.jpg

Kelly Rowland, wearing a white t-shirt and black flats, was spotted holding her belly yesterday as she walked through The Grove yesterday with her bestie Ciara (who was seen carrying her son Future).   You'll recall that Kelly is expecting a baby boy with husband Tim Witherspoon

The ladies spent the day shopping, and were spotted grabbing lunch too. It's obvious that ladies had a lot to catch up on.  We're sure Ciara had a few tips for Kelly on motherhood while Kelly may have given CiCi tips on getting over an ex and calling off an engagement.  

Kelly faced a similar situation a few years ago when she called off her engagement to ex-fiance Roy Williams. Hopefully, she had some words of encouragement for CiCi.

Summer is coming to an end soon. But not before Rihanna can perfect her tan aboard a yacht in Cannes. Peep the Bajan beauty's bikini candids inside…

 photo rihcurls3.jpg

Since coming off her Monster tour with Eminem, Rihanna has been living it up overseas on some serious boss status ish. First, Rih and her crew sailed the seas of Italy, traveling to active volcanoes and sight-seeing while snorkeling in the ocean.

 photo rihcurls2.jpg

Today, the Pop princess is aboard a yacht with friends traveling the waters along the South of France. She was spotted in a pink bikini laid out on the upper deck of her posh yacht as she worked on her golden tan.

Rih and co. had plenty reasons to "pour it up", one being that her debut album Music of the Sun dropped nine years ago on August 30th. Has it really been that long? Time is flying...
 

 photo rihcurls8.jpg

And before Rih and company soaked in some sun, the “Diamonds” singers went on a fun-filled ride on some four wheelers for a trip around the French island of Corsica. Chick was doing the most as she sipped on a beer and participated in one of her favorite pastimes while maneuvering her ride. Check out those pics on our Instagram pageHERE.

It appearsRih is trying to get in as much fun as she can before she releases her next studio album, which is supposedly dropping in November. Once that album drops, you know chick will be back on her grind.

CeeLo Green's Reality Show CANCELLED After "Rape" Tweets Spark Outrage + Jeezy COVERS The "2014 Power 30/SOURCE360 Issue + T.I. DISSES Floyd Mayweather On "Am I Wrong" (REMIX)

CeeLo Green's controversial views on rape (via Twitter) led to the cancellation of his reality show earlier today!  Get the deets inside and see  Jeezy shares his thoughts on the police involvement in Ferguson listen to T.I. diss Floyd Mayweather on the "Am I Wrong" (REMIX)...

HUGE developments in the world of CeeLo Green.  You'll recall that the former coach on "The Voice" was accused of sexual assault a few months ago after a female acquaitance claimed he slipped her an ecstasy pill in 2012. 

On August 29th, the "F*ck U" singer pleaded no contest to one felony count of furnishing ecstasy to the woman and was sentenced to serve probation and community service - but that's when his REAL problems began.

Maybe he was feeling himself, but the last thing CeeLo should have done was got on Twitter. Shortly after the court verdict, instead of counting his blessings, CeeLo got on Twitter and posted some views on "rape" that PISSED off a lot of people. The tweets have been deleted (of course) but he posted: 

 photo ceevvfvt54tgtgt.png

And this will REALLY make you gag: “People who have really been raped REMEMBER!!!”

NEGATIVE react was swift and went all the way up the chain of command at TBS which "was" the home of his reality show "CeeLo Green’s The Good Life.” After the backlash on social media, the network chose to CANCEL the show.

 

Sigh......

 

In other music news.... 

 photo jeezyadsdsd.jpg

Atlanta native Jeezy finds himself on the cover of the sought after 2014 Power 30/SOURCE360 issue this year.  The rapper, who's currently on tour with Wiz Khalifa, was recently arrested for gun possession, but now that he's bonded out of jail - he's ready to hit the airwaves again.

During the interview, he reveals why this has been one of the most important years of his career, talks about cops and Ferguson, MO ("They did all the wrong things") and even says he auditioned to be Tupac in the “Holler If You Hear Me” musical (I came to New York, auditioned and everything. Ol’ man was going to be on Broadway).  The 2014 Power 30/SOURCE360 issue hits newsstands soon, in the meantime, here are the highlights:

 

On being a gangster rapper in 2014:

I think me and people like me that answered the call, and were appointed by the people to be their spokesperson have to walk a separate line because, you might like my music, but I think you probably love me more for what I stand for and what my morals are. So I think that’s what makes me special, and different from a lot of artists, because you know we got some people where their whole career is off pure talent. They’re very talented but they don’t have any morals, or the ability to go sit outside and watch something, and then be able to go talk about it in a rhyme form and make you believe it. Everything is so internet based now, you don’t even know what to believe anymore.

On Ferguson:

I just feel like, when things like this happen, you have to build trust within the community. They did all the wrong things. Instead of going there and trying to resolve the situation, they went in there with tasers, riot guns and riot forces, and you can’t come to my neighborhood and not expect us to stand up for what we believe in. You know, that type of sh*t happens in Iraq, that doesn’t happen in Ferguson.

On auditioning to be Tupac on Broadway:

Jeezy was almost Tupac. No, he didn’t go to the tattoo parlor and stop just short of getting “Thug Life” tattooed across his stomach, but when it came to cast the Tupac character in the short-lived Tupac musical, “Holler If You Hear Me”, Jeezy read for the part and earnestly competed to land it.I came to New York, auditioned and everything. Ol’ man was going to be on Broadway, man [laughs].

 

 

New diss records....

T.I. is still up in his feelings about the Floyd Mayweather drama (you'll recall they had a run-in in Las Vegas after Floyd made some comments about Tiny) and now he's put his feelings on record.  On “Am I Wrong”. Tip remixes the Nico and Vinz hit and throws a few shots at Floyd along the way.  But he doesn't stop there, he has a few bars about Tiny and infidelity as well.

On Floyd....

Don't care what you do for a living, run up on you
Look up to my eye right now
Recognize I'm a man that'd die right now

On rumors about Tiny AND Floyd

Sucker, if I got a woman and you touch her
She supposed to stay with you if you a bad mother fucker
She come back to me, as far as I can see
You all she really needed to see what she really need (I know)
Look at me and see what you will never be

Jennifer Lopez COVERS ELLE UK’s October 2014 Issue—Talks Love, Failed Relationships & Her Twins

Jennifer Lopez is gracing the cover of ELLE UK’s October issue. Find out what the fab over forty singer said about her past relationships and more inside…

Jennifer Lopez is the cover girl for ELLE UK’s October 2014 issue. And the A.K.A singer is serving up some effortless fab.

 photo jloel2.jpg

Shot by by photographer Txema Yeste, JLo schools the newcomers on how to slay a magazine spread as she posed it up at Château de Voisins in Paris. The 45-year-old singer/actor stunned in Versace gowns and accessorized her looks with Laura Lee Jewellery and Lock & Co Hatters for her spread. And of course, she served up at least one booty-ful editorial for the masses.

In the cover story, JLo opens up about still believing in love and one day finding her prince charming that she will spend the rest of her life with. She also talked about her past mistakes in her public relationships (Diddy, Marc Anthony, etc.), learning from those mistakes and being a single mother to her 6-year-old twins Emme and Max.
 

 photo jloel3.jpg

Here are the highlights:

On still believing in love:
"I still believe in love. The nirvana man, he's out there somewhere. But you just have to work at it. You have to work at everything."

On mistakes she has made in her past relationships:
"Everybody has seen that I make mistakes. Every single album I have ever made is about love. But I am not going to give up. I have to look at what I do wrong. I rush in, I get swept up, I ignore the signs. But so many of us are guilty of these things. Each time it goes wrong, it's hard. I get really hurt but I have to let myself go: 'What did I do? What can I learn?' And as hard and as hurtful as things get, I want to believe I will be able to go one step higher," she says. "I've got to hope that if I keep going I will eventually get it right."

On the public’s interest in her relationships:
"Is it worth making mistakes, in my case in public, and trying to figure out what you do and balance everything and constantly grow? I'd say yes," she tells the magazine. "None of it is easy, none of it is safe—you are going to get big highs and you are going to get big lows, so it's not for everyone—but that's exciting. You just need to believe in yourself."

On being a single mother:
"It's not easy. I'm from a traditional background. It takes two people to make a kid for a reason. It's tough because I know they feel the void of that male presence," says Lopez, who was most recently linked to Maksim Chmerkovskiy. "When Marc and I first broke up, I did think, 'I wish I could have held this together.' But when you realize it's not the right thing for anybody, you think, 'OK, well how do we make this work, how do we make this better, how do we make this great for the children anyway?'"

Young Jeezy DONATES $1 Million For “Another Way Out” Scholarship, Talks About Recent ARREST On “The Breakfast Club” + 50 Cent THROWS Ferrari-Themed Party For His 2-Year-Old Son Sire

It appears Young Jeezy is working on refining his image after his recent arrest. The ATL rapper is donating $1 million for the “Another Way Out” scholarship. Meanwhile, 50 Cent is playing his role as a doting dad after throwing his 2-year-old son Sire a Ferrari-themed birthday party. Deets inside…

On the day his seventh studio album Seen It All drops (Sept. 2nd), Atlanta rapper Young Jeezy, along with his Street Dreamz Foundation, donated $1 million dollars to real estate company Jay Morrison Academy.

His considerable contribution will allow students to learn everything there is to know about how to become successful in the real estate industry. The $1 million dollars will go towards a free month’s scholarship which will include, two bi-weekly mentorship calls with real estate agent Jay Morrison, four lessons on "How to Become a Real Estate Investor", virtual protégé lessons, a Jay Morrison Academy textbook and more.

To enter to win the scholarship, you can check out YoungJeezyScholarship.com

This is a good look for Jeezy after he was arrested last week for allegedly toting a assault rifle on his tour bus while traveling with Wiz Khalifa on the “Under the Influence” tour. The “Seen It All” rapper joined Power 105’s The Breakfast Club for a special sitdown interview in Atlanta. And The Source magazine cover guy touched on what happened the night he was put behind bars.

He explained what took so long for him to post bail (“They detained two of my bus drivers and I just couldn’t leave them in there”) and on his innocence (“When it’s all said and done, I’m confident that me and no one in my crew had anything to do with anything”).

Let's hope so.

And in other rapper news…. 

 photo 50son1.png

Although 50 Cent and his eldest son Marquise are on the outs, he’s attempting to make up for it with his youngest son Sire Jackson (who he shares with ex-girlfriend/former vixen Daphne Joy).

For Sire’s 2nd birthday, 50 went all out with a Ferrari-themed party with his little man decked out in his red race car gear. 50 appeared to really enjoy his day with his son captioning, “It was a big day today for little 50. Lol he's finished now # partyover”

Sucks for Marquise because when he asked his dad for a Ferrari for his 16th birthday in 2011, 50 denied his request. He said he would get his a new car….just not a Ferrari.

 

 

 photo 50son3.png

 photo 50son2.png

He is killing us with the adorableness!

And the day before....

 photo ScreenShot2014-09-03at124153PM.png

The South Jamaica Queens rapper gifted his baby boy with a mini black Mercedes-Benz convertible, just like his daddy’s. Cute!

Nice to see 50 being a part of his youngest son’s life since he disowned his eldest. Which brings us to this…50 may also be a dad to yet another child!

A young lady by the name of LaCresha Taylor (who claims to be a former Magic City stripper) from Virginia, blasted 50 under one of his pics of his son Sire. She is making claims that she is 3 months pregnant with his child and he WON'T return her phone calls! In the comment she wrote, “I’ve been trying to call you!!! Didn’t wanna do this one here, but I’m 3 months pregnant and don’t be the TYPICAL “nigga” with “”BY WO?!”” … you bitch!!! CALL ME BACK!"

And we all know how 50 loves to troll on IG so he clapped back with "good luck Bill Jean":

 

 

Not sure why she expected him to respond in any other fashion based on his track record with "disowning" and not claiming his kids....but to each its own. 

 

EXTRAS:

1. The Michigan man who shot and killed 19-year-old Renisha McBride has been sentenced to 17-32 years in prison. STORY

R&B CHICKS: Jazmine Sullivan RELEASES New Single “Forever Don’t Last” + Jhene Aiko ENCOURAGES Pet Adoption In PETA2 PSA

 photo jaz1.jpg

Jazmine Sullivan and Jhene Aiko have new projects they would like to share with the masses. Find out what these R&B chicks are up to inside…

As she makes her return back to the music scene, Jazmine Sullivan has some brand new heat for the R&B fans of the world.

After the release of her comeback single “Dumb” featuring Meek Mill, the Philly songstress is back with another banger. “Forever Don’t Last” is the second single from her upcoming third studio album, Reality Show. And it sounds like she’s ready to take over the R&B scene.

Jaz belts out the emotional lyrics about holding on to a failed relationship as she croons over the acoustic guitar ballad. She sings,

"I had high hopes for us baby/Like I was chasing a high I would never get back again/So we turned into three long years/And it became painfully clear that we would never see those days again/But I guess forever doesn’t last to long for forever”

In a recent interview with Billboard, the "Holding You Down" singer dished on the newly released track saying,

"The most personal song is called, 'Forever,' she says. "I'm basically crying on that song. It's a ballad, and that's classic Jazmine. It's a letting go song which is why it's so personal. I feel like I came to a point in my relationship where [I needed] to let go and move on. I just had to do it."

Well there you have it.

Take a listen below:

We feelin' it?

And another R&B chick with project....

Following the release of her new video “The Pressure”, Jhene Aiko has teamed up with PETA’s youth division, peta2, for a new campaign promoting pet adoption.
 

“The Worst” singer took a break from working on her debut album Souled Out (Sept. 9th), to pose it up alongside her pet cat named Daisy in the new peta2 pictorial. Jhene (and her cat) wants to encourage future pet owners to adopt a pet rather than buying one in the “Adoption is Love. Save A Homeless Dog or Cat” ad.

During an interview with peta2 on the set, the songstress revealed she has always had a love for cats and a recent trip to a local shelter with her 5-year-daughter inspired her to adopt rather than purchase a new pet. 

She said,

“I think cats are super-smooth with everything they do. I move in silence but when I feel threaten, I get feisty like a cat. Ever since I was younger, I’ve had this connection with cats. I would bring home like stray kittens and ever since then I just always had to have cats in my life.”

She also talked about the importance of adopting rather than purchasing a pet from a breeder. She said,

 

"It’s important to adopt rather than buy, because there’s so many animals in the shelters that need homes. And they have anything you want …. I just feel like it’s better to give those animals a second chance."

Actress Raven Symone is slaying in a brand new photoshoot. And we’re here for all of her fabness.

Shot by photographer Bruce Talbot, the Academy of Art University student turns up the super model realness (before the rainbow hair) in an array of shots which include a structured maroon dress, a lush red lippie and an exaggerated white gown. It appears the pics were likely taken a few months ago, as she already shared a photo on social media of her in the Janet Jackson "What's It Gonna Be?!" dress (above).

 

 photo rm1.jpg

Recently, the YBF chick chopped it up with “Just Keke” host Keke Palmer where she talked about embracing her sexuality and being confident in the skin you’re in. She said,

You have to be confident in who you are no matter what your team, background noise or front-ground noise makes. You have to stay strong as long as you’re not, ya know, being a drug addict or nothing crazy then you gotta listen. But when you’re just trying to color your hair, stay strong. It’s hard because people want to continue the brand, continue the look that they created to, I’m being honest, they want continue that look that made them money for so long but sometimes it doesn’t always coincide with who you are as a person…

Was Jill Scott hacked? There are some nudes floating around social media that are allegedly exposing the Philly Native. We have the scoop on whether it's her or not when you go inside….

There are some pics making their rounds on Twitter that are allegedly of Jill Scott. Could she be one of the celebrity victims who had their personal accounts hacked? It’s possible. It’s alleged that a massive celebrity photo hack scheme is currently in the works and they’re slowly leaking nudes.

It already happened to actress Jennifer Lawrence (although the authenticity of some of the images couldn’t be confirmed) and now it appears Jilly could be their next victim. According to CBS Los Angeles, the FBI is now investigating the huge hack.

But in the meantime, we have the inside scoop on Jilly's pics. The Philly native release an official statement (via Twitter) confirming that the picture of her in the robe (atop) is her but the one with the exposed nipples (above) is NOT. She even threw in a clever reference to the song "Watching Me" off her debut disc Who Is Jill Scott? She said,

And here are the receipts......

In today's couples' news, actors Tia and Cory Hardrict dined out while we spotted Usher and Grace out in New York and they weren't hiding from the cameras.  See candids inside...

 

 photo htr5.jpg

Yesterday, we spotted Usher and girlfriend Grace Miguel seen sitting outside in New York City. But something was VERY different.....

 photo htr6.jpg

For as long as we've been following their love, Usher and Grace had tried to avoid "looking" like a couple.  Even when they looked for apartments in NYC, they scheduled different appointments to avoid being pictured together.

 photo hrt4.jpg

It looks like they've grown tired of avoiding pics together. That's great.....Usher looks very happy.  We guess she's a "Good Kisser." 

 

In California...

 photo htr2.jpg

We saw "Instant Mom" star Tia Mowry and her husband Cory Hardrict dining out at Craig's restaurant in West Hollywood, CA.

   photo htr3.jpg 

In addition to supporting his superstar wife, Cory just completed the comedy Walk Of Fame with former SNL star Chris Kattan.

It's great to see that Tia married a real gentleman as Cory help her into their SUV.
