It's Bad Boy For Life!  Come inside to check out tons of pics and videos from the star-studded Bad Boy Reunion show in Brooklyn last night….

The Barclays Center was super LIT last night!

The Bad Boy Reunion show went down in Brooklyn last night and when we say EVERYONE was there, we mean it. It was a total star-studded concert that will certainly go down in the history books. Last night's show was the first of two shows in Brooklyn. Another concert will go down tonight to commemorate Notorious B.I.G.'s birthday today.

Hip Hop mogul Jay Z was tapped to perform for the highly anticipated concert. And once he took center stage, the audience totally lost it!

“Two fingers in the sky for B.I.G. tonight,” Jay Z said in honor of Biggie’s birthday (May 21st).

Diddy revealed Blue Ivy had a dance recital and that Hov traveled thousands of miles to make it to the show. “That’s what family does!,” said Diddy. It’s unclear if Hov missed Blue’s recital or if he hopped on a jet right afterwards (likely the latter), either way, the Bad Boy honcho was grateful that Hov made an appearance.

Lil Kim poured her curves in a skin tight white Balmain bodysuit accenting every curve on her body. She popped up on stage “Big Momma” style to get the crowd hype with her raunchy lyrics and body rolled as best she could.

Girl group TOTAL rocked the stage with their 1996 track “Kissing You” where they brought out “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Stevie J and ran through their catalog of classics.

Nas joined Diddy on stage for “Made You Look” and “Hate Me Now” rocking furs that had trains attached:

Ma$e, the LOX, Faith Evans, Usher and Carl Thomas all performed sets as well.

The 305 came to Brooklyn! Rapper Rick Ross hit the stage to perform “Stay Schemin.” French Montanta joined Rozay for a few tracks during his set. Diddy’s girlfriend Cassie even hit the stage to perform her song “Me & U.”

Oh, and Mary J. Blige had everyone on their feet as she hit her signature two-step throughout her performance.

Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian West jetted to London for the VOGUE 100 festival. And apparently Kim had a bit of a pregnancy scare. Supposedly.

Meanwhile, Gabrielle Union was honored at in Beverly Hills and her hubby Dwyane Wade was right on her arm. More inside….

 photo KanyeWestKimKardashianKanyeWestAttendGvCsvd25jrml.jpg

Following his eyebrow raising rant on the “ELLEN” show, Kanye West hopped on a plane to London.

 photo KanyeWestKimKardashianKanyeWestAttendsI3che2QVCel.jpg

The Pablo rapper didn’t go alone though. Yeezy and his wife touched down in overseas to attend the VOGUE 100 Festival: Fashion, Friendship and Fabulous Lashes talk held at the Royal Geographical Society. The Wests were the guests of honor for the fashion event.

Smile Ye!

As Kim spoke on stage, Ye played paparazzi in the audience.

Before they got there....

 photo kkwpreg1.png

Apparently, the “KUWTK” star thought she was pregnant, so she decided to take a pregnancy test. The thing is, she took the test in the airplane bathroom and shared the moment for her millions of fans on SnapChat. Sighs…

She said, “I’m legit in the airplane bathroom and I'm going to take a pregnancy test because I’m having a little bit of a scare. So, no big deal.”

The result?

 photo kkwpreg2.png

Not pregnant!

 

 

Mrs. West then followed up with an explanation on why she decided to Snap the pregnancy “scare” while laying in bed with Ye at 4AM. She said she couldn’t sleep so that’s why she was up answering fan questions. She said:

“Some people were asking me why I would SnapChat the pregnancy test on the airplane, and I just thought it was, like, funny because I’ve been so private before and what do I really care if I was pregnant again?”

She continued:

“I didn’t get my period this month so I was just really confused and I couldn’t stand to be, like, on a whole plane flight for 10 hours not knowing. So that’s why I decided to put it on Snapchat, and I’m not pregnant!”

Umm…OK. It actually looked like an advertisement for Clear Blue but whatevs. Peep the clip above. 

We’re sure Ye would have been happy to hear his wife was pregnant had the test been positive being that he seemed hopeful they would have more children to join 2-year-old North West and 5-month-old Saint West while chatting with Ellen DeGeneres recently.

Another couple hanging out together this YBF weekend....

”Being Mary Jane” actress Gabrielle Union was honored at the 2016 Step Up Women’s Network Inspiration Awards held at The Beverly Hilton Hotel yesterday. With the Miami Heat being eliminated from the NBA Finals, her husband Dwyane Wade was able to join her for the special occasion.

GETTING SERIOUS? Tyga Spends Some Coins On Rumored Girlfriend Demi Rose While Shopping In Cannes + Lamar Odom Cops New Wheels

Tyga and his new main squeeze Demi Rose are still hanging tight in Cannes. Get the deets on their latest coupledom spotting and check out new flicks of Lamar Odom out in L.A. inside…

Hmm…it appears Tyga and his new chick Demi Rose are really feeling each other…or enjoying the extra media attention.

Either way, they’re still hanging tight in Cannes following his performance at GOTHA nightclub the other night.

 photo benr3e.jpg

Photogs are hot on their heels as they make rounds in Cannes. For their third spotting together, the rumored couple went shopping at the Saint Laurent store. We hear the “Rack City” rapper dropped some cash on his new chick, copping her some new shoes and a few dresses.

 photo benr3.jpg

The shopping session lasted for a cool 2 hours before Demi picked out her faves and Tyga pulled out his credit card…or whatever. Must be nice.

It ain't trickin' if you got it right? Well...nevermind.

 photo ebrn3.jpg

 photo Tcannes1.jpg

This all comes just a little over a week after he called it quits with Kylie Jenner. The "KUWTK" reality star has been keeping her mind off Tyga thanks to PartyNextDoor. Word on the curb is that a sex tape with Tyga and Kylie is supposedly going to be leaked soon. Take that with a grain of salt as the news comes from unconfirmed sources and rumors are constantly poppin' up about a "sex tape."

Back in the States....

 photo BEn3.jpg

A healthy looking Lamar Odom was spotted out in L.A. yesterday. The former NBA baller was seen picking up a rental car from Enterprise. Photogs say he copped a silver sedan for a friend.

 photo ETL1.jpg

While Lamar has seemingly fully recovered from his near death overdose, he has been spied having a few drinks on different occasions. Maybe his pending divorce from his estranged wife Khloe Kardashian is still taking a toll on him.

 photo ndbe3.jpg

We’re just keeping our fingers crossed he doesn’t go back to his old ways and spiral out of control again.

LeBron James’ NIKE Deal Worth A Billion Dollars?! + Carmelo Anthony Accepts The #RunningMan Challenge On “Fallon”

 photo lebmav.jpg

LeBron James’ empire is steadily growing and the man behind it all Maverick Carter is dishing on his biggest deal yet. Come inside to get deets on LeBron’s lifetime deal with Nike and peep Carmelo Anthony hitting the running man on late night TV inside…

Say what you want about LeBron James. You can love him. You can hate. But, you can’t deny that he’s making major move on AND off the court.

A few months ago, we learned the Cleveland Cavalier inked a LIFETIME deal with NIKE. It was reportedly the first lifetime deal the shoe giant has ever done and is the largest single-athlete guarantee in the company’s history.

So how much exactly is this deal worth? According to his business partner Maverick Carter, the deal is worth at LEAST $1billion! Yes, a BILLION. Maverick, who is LeBron’s longtime business partner, dished the deets to GQ.

Here’s what he said:

GQ: So you just negotiated an unprecedented lifetime contract for LeBron with Nike. What's your secret to being a great negotiator?

Maverick: You have to go into the room understanding a couple things. You have to know what you want. You have to know how to clearly articulate those things. You have to know what's important to the other side and what they want. Be able to articulate those things, too. And then you have to be willing to not take everything. If you go into the negotiation like, I'm gonna get every dollar, every piece of real estate—I'm just gonna take this guy's fucking pants off—you may be able to do that once, maybe twice, but after that, people aren't going to want to do business with you. When you're negotiating something like the Nike deal, it's gonna last a lifetime, literally. The minute this negotiation's over, we're gonna work with these people every day. So you don't want to leave them with a bad feeling.

How much was the deal for?

I can’t say.

Come on, Mav! Can you ballpark it?

What are people saying?

Kanye said a billion. So a billion.

[Maverick smiles and points one finger skyward.] Actually, but that’s just the baseline.

Holy sh*t.

Yeah. It’s a fantastic deal. Nike feels great about the deal. That’s the most important thing. As great as I feel, as great as LeBron feels—Nike feels fantastic about it. It’s the largest deal in the history of the company. Their hope is he makes even more. And our hope is that, too, obviously.

WOW! Congrats to Bron!

In basketball news, LeBron and the Cavaliers suffered their first lost in lost in the NBA Conference Finals against the Toronto Raptors last night. The Raptors beat the Cavaliers 99-84 in Game 3.  The series is now 2-1.

Game 4 will kick off tomorrow night at 8:30PM EST.

In other baller news...

NY Knicks baller Carmelo Anthony has been enjoying his time away from basketball after the Knicks missed this year’s playoff season.

A few nights ago, the NBA baller popped up on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” for a fun segment. The late night host read a fan request about hitting the #RunningMan challenge. At first Jimmy was playing coy. Then, he went behind a door, Ghost Town DJs track “My Boo” started playing and he popped out with Carmelo hitting the newly revised running man. It was hilarious.

Check it above.

The doting dad also gushed about his son Kiyan Anthony and and his role in the upcoming role in the Ninja Turtle move that's coming out this June. Check it below:

Speaking of Ninja Turtles...

Carmelo hit up Macy’s Herald Square to celebrate the launch of his kids clothing line TMNT x Melo yesterday in NYC. He snapped it up with life-sized Ninja Turtle characters in the street.

 photo MacyWelcomesCarmeloAnthonyHeraldSquaresaIwh5-Fj_ql.jpg

The kiddie collection will include T-shirts, hoodies, shorts, pajama sets, socks, basketballs, and an over-the-door basketball hoop to practice their b-ball skills.

 photo MacyWelcomesCarmeloAnthonyHeraldSquarea4PgQRPUZ2Ll.jpg

Melo was all in for the new project helping to pick out fabrics, textures and colors for the new line. He told WWD a few months ago,

“I was basically involved in the whole creative process — the colors, which are kind of obvious considering they’re turtles, and the slogan, and the textures. I was involved in every step. We really took our time to narrow it down and figure out what we wanted. I feel good about all the pieces.”

Sweet!

Be sure to check out Melo's cameo in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows when it hits theaters June 3rd.

Upon taking the stage, Kenya opened up about how he feels when people who are not black say they can relate to the show.“What I’ve learned is the specificity does speak to the universal," said Kenya. "You tell a good story and an honest story – that’s what people relate to.”

He continued, “This award to me is everything. I’d like that other award, but I‘m very happy with this one, forever.”

Tamar Braxton Reportedly Exits "The Real," Writes Cryptic Message About Betrayal!

 photo taman.jpg

Tamar Braxton issued a cryptic message about betrayal and back stabbing in a new Instagram post. And it all comes on the heels of reports that she's leaving “The Real.” Get it all inside….

“Braxton Family Values” star and datytime talk show host Tamar Braxton was all up in her feelings last night. So, she did what most celebs do these days: Hopped on social media and vent subliminal messages.

In a lengthy Instagram post, Tamar informed her “Tamartian” friends how someone she thought was her friend betrayed her and how you can’t trust everyone who smiles in your face. She didn’t drop any names though.

She wrote:

 photo tam2_1.jpg

Hmph.

 photo taman2.jpg

Now, new reports suggest Tamar has decided to leave “The Real” after rumors began circulating that she has been fired from the show. In a statement issued to Variety, “The Real” confirmed the news of her departure saying:

”’The Real’ and Tamar Braxton have mutually decided that Tamar will not be continuing with the show for its upcoming third season. She will be leaving in order to concentrate on her solo career. Everyone associated with ‘The Real’ appreciates Tamar’s efforts and the contributions she has made to the show’s success, and we wish her all the best for the future.”

No word yet on if she will be replaced.

Before the official statement was released, fans speculated that Tamar was referring to her (former?) friend April Daniels and her husband LaShawn Daniels in her cryptic IG post. Her "Tamartian" fans started attacking anyone they thought were responsible, including her co-hosts on "The Real."

So, LaShawn decided to speak on it last night. He said Tamar's post had nothing to do with him or his wife and they she's not referring to them. He said they have love for the Herberts and that they have "moved on." Check it:

 

A video posted by TheYBF.com (@theybfdaily) on

 

Tamar's former co-host/comedian Loni Love also took to her Instagram last night to address the drama:

We're glued to our phones to see if/when anyone else decides to address the situation, since that's where everything seems to begin now.

The 2nd night of the Bad Boy Reunion Tour went down at the Barclays Center last night. And it was just as LIT as the first night. Check out our round up of pics and videos inside…

 photo revt4.png

Fans filled the Barclays Center last night for the 2nd night of the Bad Boy Reunion Tour.

Diddy and the Bad Boy Family rocked out like they use to in the 90s to commemorate late rapper Christopher “The Nortorious B.I.G.” Wallace on what would have been his 44th birthday. Happy Birthday Biggie!

Special guests DMX and Swizz Beatz were last night’s special guests. The Ruff Ryders took the stage and concertgoers could hardly contain their excitement as X spit his gritty rhymes and Swizz danced it up alongside the Yonkers rapper to his beats.

After running through their hits "Ruff Ryders Anthem,” “Party Up,” and “What These Bitches Want,” X gave a tribute to B.I.G. saying:

“This is the birthday of one of rap’s legends. This is the birthday of one, who has inspired me when not many people inspired me. We have to remember why we’re here and say happy birthday and celebrate his life, as opposed to mourning his death.”

 photo revt9.png

R&B songstress Mary J. Blige returned for the 2nd night to hit her signature two-step and belt out her vocals. As Diddy introduced the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, he shared how he asked God to send him a miracle and that prayer was answered when Mary stepped into his life.

Following their high-energy set of "Love No Limit," the Hip Hop mogul and the soulful songstress embraced each other as the crowd went wild.

For a surprise performance:

 

 

Former Bad Boy rapper Shyne served up a performance via satellite from Belie. As you may know, Shyne was deported to his native Belize after serving nearly 9-years in prison for that infamous NYC nightclub shooting in 1999.

Before he kicked off his performance of his track “Bad Boyz,” he said, “Happy birthday to the greatest rappers of all time” and proceed to spit his rhymes. Peep the clips above and below:

The Wests have been making plenty of moves overseas this weekend and the paparazzi have been hot on their heels.  Negligé, track jacket and boots and all.

 photo suncoup22.jpg

After attending the VOGUE 100 Festivalyesterday, Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian West were spotted making their way to their hotel after a long day. The couple worked up an appetite after being honored at the event, so they headed out to Mayfair’s C restaurant to enjoy some of London’s finest eats.

After their quick trip to London....

The couple hopped on a plane to jet to Rome. The last time Kim boarded a flight, she felt she just had to take a pregnancy test while in the plane bathroom. She shared on SnapChat the result was negative.

She strutted her stuff in a black Baja East crop top from the Spring 2016 collection paired with the brand’s black Fall 2016 trousers and Jimmy Choo heels to round out her look.

On the carpet, the 20-year-old singer gushed about inking a deal with Columbia Records, joining her co-stars Jussie Smollett and Bryshere “Yazz” Gray. She said her bestie Taylor Swift advised her to always “be yourself” to succeed in the music biz.

Inside....

Serayah slipped into another look that was very similar to her carpet ensemble. This time, she brought springtime fab in a coral asymmetric crop top and matching trousers from the Baja East Spring 2016 collection.

She was tapped to introduce Meghan Trainor’s performance alongside “Quantico” star Priyanka Chopra.

So which of Serayah's looks did she rock the best?!

VOCALS: Rihanna Delivers One Of Her Best Live Performances At 2016 Billboard Music Awards

It appears Rihanna has been working on her vocals because she sounded amazing tonight while performing her track “Love On The Brain” at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards. Take a listen inside….

The 2016 Billboard Awards tapped Rihanna for a solo performance. And chick delivered one of the best live performances we’ve ever seen from the Pop princess.  Yep, we're shocked ourselves.

The Bajan beauty changed out of her vintage Thierry Mugler silk coat dress she rocked on the red carpet into a vintage Thierry Mugler 1980 green marabou tuxedo blazer paired with black slacks to serve up a beautiful performance of her track “Love On The Brain,” a cut from chart topping ANTI album. Her look sort of reminds us of her iHeartRadio performance where she debuted "BBHMM."

While we’re used to RiRi bearing it all while prancing across the stage, she decided to switch things up a bit for this performance and flex her vocals. And she pretty much nailed it. Won't he do it?!

Peep clips from her performance below:

Ciara did not come to play. She came to slay. And that she did.

Check out every look CiCi served while co-hosting the 2016 Billboard Music Awards inside…

Metallics, high slits and side boob is everything Ciara delivered for the 2016 Billboard Music Awards.

 photo Ciara2016BillboardMusicAwardsArrivalslfh8DIOH_OSl.jpg

Before getting to her co-hosting duties alongside Ludacris, the Georgia peach hit the carpet showing out in a Philipp Plein cut out couture chain metal gown. The new IMG model’s body is uber sick, so why not rock a dress that hugs her body like a glove.

 photo Ciara2016BillboardMusicAwardsShow9Tm1ZR_s0Kwl.jpg

For her first look of the night, the “I Bet” singer showed off her killer legs a black Michael Costello double slit caped jumpsuit.

Even Luda was mesmerized by her toned stems encouraging the audience to give her incredible bod a round of applause.

Check it:

For another metallic look, CiCi slayed in an embellished Naeem Khan gown from the Fall 2016 collection. Loves it!

A silver and gold mini with gold sandals was in her arsenal of looks.

For another wardrobe change, the hot mom styled in a strapless black and ivory dress paired with Brian Atwood over-the-knee boots:

More sex appeal with a one-shouldered high slit asymmetrical cut-out dress by Galia Lahav.

The R&B singer closed out the show wearing a burgundy plunging velvet wrap high slit Michael Costello gown. CiCi is LOVING the sky-high slits and we can't even blame her.

During a break, she got the chance to nab a photo-op with Stevie Wonder backstage. He joined Madonna on stage for a Prince tribute...if you want to call it that.

 

So...which of CiCi's looks did she slay best?

When you've been hitting the gym hard, it's only right you wear latex to show it all off.  Peep KeKe Palmer's fitness gains she flossed on the 2016 Billboard Music Awards red carpet inside...

 photo 2016BillboardMusicAwardsArrivalsxNc2YnRn2csl_zpstydg3mea.jpg

She's been filming her fitness journey on Snapchat, and now we see exactly what she's been up to.  "Scream Queens" star KeKe Palmer showed off her slim and trim -- and fit -- bod on the pink carpet of the BBMAs in Las Vegas Sunday night. 

The Snap Queen braved the desert heat in a deep fuchsia latex House of Harlow dress and tiger print sandals for the night as she was there to present an award:

Has Rihanna traded in her T&A baring looks for a new subdued image?  Time will tell, but we do know she shocked us on the Billboard Music Awards red carpet Sunday night.  Decide if we're feeling her look inside...

We were expecting anything see-thru or over the top....and we got neither.

Rihanna showed up at the BBMAs ready to perform and take home some awards.  But before she did all that, she hit the pink carpet in an unusually subdued deep brownish green Thierry Mugler dress that gives us that 90's vibe she's been loving these days.

 photo Rihanna2016BillboardMusicAwardsArrivals17kJ8FpssRFl_zpsrfpxdwli.jpg

Ri made her pretty henna tatts and Borgioni diamond ear cuff, Hearts On Fire diamond bracelets and a Le Vian diamond ring.  And she went with a simple bob that her hairstylist Yusef siad was fly without needing the bells and whistles.

 photo Rihanna2016BillboardMusicAwardsArrivals-uIrQcZn7q8l_zpsymz2uufx.jpg

The "Needed Me" singer topped off her look with a pair of Manolo Blahniks (not from her own line with the designer, but slip-in lace mules).  Chic and sophisticated for the often sexed up and revealing singer.

Are we feelin' her new vibe?

BBMAs: Ciara Shows All The Skin While Hitting Pink Carpet With Russell Wilson, CLAPS BACK At MTV For Rihanna Beef Tweet

Flawless body?  Check.  Chain metal dress that shows damn near every inch of it?  All the checks.  Get Ciara's sexy pink carpet look as she arrived with fiancé Russell Wilson, and how she handled MTV when they tried to bring up an old beef with Rihanna...

Ciara came ready to play as she hit the pink carpet in Vegas ahead of her Billboard Msic Awards co-hosting gig.  She brought out the side boob and her perfect legs for this metal Phillip Plein dress Sunday night.

Chick looked amazing and wasn't about to let anybody throw shade on her day.  So she had words for MTV when they tried to come for her on Twitter.  Well, they tried to re-ignite an old beef.

Remember back in 2011 when CiCi and RiRi had that epic Twitter fight where shade was thrown about tours (and lack of tours)?  For some reason, MTV decided to drag that back up during last night's award show when Ludacris announced Rihanna's performance. 

Ciara responded and got them all the way together.  MTV removed their tweet, but we were quick enough to grab it first

But back out on the carpet, the future Mr. & Mrs. Wilson were being their ridiculously cute selves:

DJ Khaled Says He's Terrified Of Beyoncé, And Hasn't Even Spoken To Her

DJ Khaled is letting the world in on what happens when a celeb like himself gets starstruck by Beyoncé, and it's hilarious.  Deets inside on why he says he's terrified of his boss Beyoncé....

He may be opening for the Queen on her Formation World Tour (and killing it), but he hasn't even spoken to her yet.  Ha!

While taking over T-Mobile's Snapchat on the pink carpet at the Billboard Music Awards last night, Khaled told media he's terrified of his boss Beyoncé.  Not because she's a witch with a 'b', but because he's too starstruck and doesn't even trust himself around her!

He told media that he usually says 'Hi,' then runs off.  He doesn't want to say anything wrong or mess anything up.  And his new manager, Bey's husband Jay Z, is usually with him when this goes down.

Another thing he's scared of: Flying.  He hasn't flown on a plane in 8 years and takes his We The Best bus EVERYWHERE. He's working on that fear of flying thing.

The Snapchat King revealed he's releasing his new album soon. MAJOR KEY.

In the meantime, he has been approached about doing a reality show but he's surprisingly not interested. He "wants to do a movie or tv show, something iconic" instead.

UPDATE: 2nd Officer In Freddie Gray Trial Found NOT GUILTY On All Charges!

There’s an update in the Freddie Gray trial: The 2nd officer involved was just acquitted! Details inside….

The 2nd officer in the Freddie Gray trail has reportedly been found not guilty on all charges today in connection to the death of the 25-year-old Baltimore native.

Baltimore police officer Edward Nero was acquitted on all charges after a bench trial ruled by Judge Barry Williams this morning. Officer Nero was charged with second-degree intentional assault, two counts of misconduct in office and reckless endangerment. He’s one of six officers that has been charged in his death brought up by State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby.

The verdict comes a little over a year after Freddie died on April 19, 2015 in police custody. The city of Baltimore was in an uproar, to say the least, following Freddie's death with protesters sparked riots in the streets, burning down building and looting stores. 

CNN reports:

Williams' line of questioning during trial last week may have been a harbinger of the final outcome. He strongly challenged prosecutors' claim that the takedown and subsequent arrest of Gray without probable cause amounted to a criminal assault.

 photo fredgray2.jpg

Officer Nero is one of six officers brought up on charges in Freddie Gray’s death. Officer William Porter was the first officer to go on trail that ended in a mistrial back in December since jurors couldn’t agree on a verdict.

There are now four more trials to go.

As we all await justice to be served and questions to be answered, do you think anyone will be held responsible for the death of Freddie Gray?

Get ready for some kiddie fab! Jamie Foxx and Laura Govan hosted a super cute party for the little ones to celebrate the release of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie. Party flicks inside….

 photo tm2.jpg

It was a total kiddie takeover at Jamie Foxx’s mansion in Thousand Oaks, CA over the weekend. The actor/singer/comedian hosted a TMNT themed karate kickback with Laura Govan to celebrate the upcoming release of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows film (out June 3rd).

About 40 kids and their parents -- many celeb parents -- invaded Jamie’s backyard for a fun-filled day that included an on-site karate class, pizza party and live turtle petting. How cute!

 photo tm5.jpg

Torrei Hart, ex-wife of Kevin Hart, brought her kids Heaven and Hendrix to indulge in the TMNT festivities. They are getting so big!

As for how Torrei and Kevin have been co-parenting as of late, the twosome hit up a production set together recently for a project. Torrei shared a picture on Instagram saying they had shot some funny stuff. She remained mum on what the project is, but we can’t wait to see it because they’re both pretty funny.

 photo tm4.jpg

“black•ish” cutie Marsai Martin showed of her karate moves on the carpet before dancing it up with her co-star Miles Brown (atop).

 photo tm6.jpg

Can’t forget the parents! “House of Lies” star Larenz Tate and his wife Tomasina Parrott Tate were all smiles as they hit the carpet.

If you haven’t heard, “House of Lies” has been cancelled after five seasons. But, Larenz is still working. He currently stars on the new NBC series “Game of Silence,” and he has a few movie projects coming down the pipeline.  You better get that coin Larenz!

 photo tm7.jpg

“Flex and Shanice” star and singer Shanice brought her children Imani and Elijah along for the fun. We’ll be seeing more of the Alexanders as their OWN reality show was picked up for season 2.

 photo tm8.jpg

Mechelle Epps, estranged wife to comedian Mike Epps, kept her mind off of her pending divorce by enjoying a fun-filled day with daughters Mariah and Maddie.

Tank's girlfriend Zena Foster and their son Zion made their way there too:
