LeBron James and Savannah James enjoyed a double date night with good friends Chris Paul and his wife Jada Paul. In other coupledom spottings, Beyonce and Jay Z hit the shopping scene in Italy ahead of Bey’s Milan concert. Pics inside….

NBA champ LeBron James is still enjoying time with his wife and friends after winning Cleveland’s very first NBA championship in franchise history.

A few weeks after their fun couples’ vacay in Ibiza, LeBron and Savannah James reunited with Los Angeles Clippers baller Chris Paul and his wife Jada Paul for a night out on the town. The Jameses and the Pauls linked up at Nobu restaurant in Malibu to chow down on some Japanese delicacies at the beachfront restaurant.

Cute braids Savannah!

Aww! Chris and Jada got all cutesy outside of the venue.  Looks like Chris had another stop to make, or was coming back from one.

In sports news, King James has officially confirmed he’s staying with the Cavs.

The NBA Finals MVP mentioned he wasn’t going anywhere during the Cavs championship parade. Now, according to ESPN, he has informed the team that he will re-sign, but the timetable for that to actually to happen has yet to be determined.

No surprise there.

In other coupledom spottings...

We’re always here for a Beyonce and Jay Z spotting.

Ahead of Bey’s concert in Milan tonight, the Carters hit up the Just Cavalli store in Italy earlier today. Nothing like some retail therapy with your boo before slaying the stage.

We're not sure if they picked up anything, but they appeared to be in good spirits as they exited the store.

By the way, that marigold ruffled off-the-shoulder gown she wore while holding a bat in her LEMONADE visual album was from Roberto Cavalli's fall 2016 collection, designed by Peter Dundas.

Also....

Bey and Jay are the highest-paid celebrity couple on Forbes’ Celebrity 100 list...again.

According to Forbes, within the past 12 months, the two raked in a whooping $107.5 million. Mrs. Carter earned a cool $54 million, while Hov raked in $53.5 million. Nice!

In London...

Former Destiny's Child member turned gospel singer Michelle Williams seen leaving Jinjuu restaurant in Soho, London after enjoying some yummy Korean street food.  Michelle trekked it to London to attend the BBC Proms, the world's largest classical music festival.

Amina Buddafly is celebrating the arrival of her new bundle of joy that she plans to name Bronx. Her husband Peter Gunz seems just as excited as well. More inside…

“Love & Hip Hop: New York” star Amina Buddafly Pankey is gearing up to birth her husband Peter Gunz’s 10th baby. And it's a girl!

Over the weekend, the reality star celebrated her daughter’s arrival with an all pink baby shower celebration with her family and friends. She showed off her growing bump in a strapless pink and white striped frock.

Amina's naming her new bundle of joy Bronx.

Big sister Cori, whom she also shares with Peter, looked adorable in her white dress as she posed it up for pics with mom.  We wonder if her kids' half siblings of about the same age were there too....

Amina's twin sister Jazz and several of her close friends were there to celebrate: 

We're not sure if Peter was in attendance, but we sure didn't see him in any of the flicks. Hmph.

But, he did make an Instagram post about his 10th baby coming into the world. He posted:

Of course, his comments section is in shambles.

Get ready for the flood of baby pics once Bronx makes her arrival.  Can't let Tara Wallace win the pregnancy and newborn picture "contest"....

The new girl groups are trying their damndest to make a splash.  Both Kelly Rowland and Mathew Knowles brought the girl groups they recently created to ATL to rock the Car & Bike Show stage this weekend.  Get the pics inside, plus the rappers getting into the mix...

Yes Kelly Rowland!  This all white eyelet dress embellished with zippers is the perfect look for the flawless singer.  She hit this past weekend's Car & Bike Show in Atlanta looking fab as she brought her newly formed girls group June's Diary out to rock the stage.

She intro'd the gals, who recently dropped their first single "L.A.N.C.E.", before they flexed their vocals at the Georgia World Congress Center on Sunday.

We love that they always at least LOOK like a group.  And their vocals (and bars) aren't too shabby either. Looking sexy ladies.

Mathew Knowles is still pushing his girls group Blushhh.  We wonder if they chopped it up with the JD gals.

Rapper T.I. made his way back home to rock the stage for his city as B.o.B., Silentó, and more did the same:

T.Pain and Jeezy turned up with hosts V103.

Fat Joe was there going all the way up.

And Jim Jones is still out here.  By the way, he and longtime fiance Chrissy Lampkin are still an item.

Check out June's Diary talk about their journey so far since winning a spot in the group after "Chasing Destiny":

And Waka talked about how he finally won his wife Tammy back after being separated for about six months.  He said he's now still trying to make a baby with her (he has a low sperm count due to being shot previously), and he can't ever lose his "Pippen" Tammy:

Glad to see he grew up and is a changed man.

It's WAR!  Cynthia Bailey battled it out with NeNe Leakes last night.  Then she shot India Aire's new video.  Get deets inside, plus the latest interesting rumor she's staying mum about....

It was a different kind of war last night for the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" stars.  Cynthia and NeNe teamed up against other celebs on "Cupcake Wars."

The on-again besties donned their pink aprons and sneakers to try to cook up a win during a celeb edition of Food Network's show. They competed against actor Lamorne Morris and Olympian Johnny Weir and Shawn Johnson.

They ended up losing but kept it cute throughout the comp.

Meanwhile, NeNe called out TMZ for their false new story about her being too busy to shoot another season of RHOA.  NeNe said she's never too busy for the show and always supports it.  But as of now, she won't be back due to no fault of hers.  Bloop.

Cynthia is doing her own thing during the RHOA off season too.  And does that include doing her ex-husband?  Hmph.

Yesterday, the model, mom & soon-to-be-divorcee starred in a video shoot for India.Airie.

She, along with Keri Hilson and Terri Vaughn (not pictured) were shot by Drexina Nelson for some new visuals. 

Meanwhile, rumors are swirling that in the wake of Cynthia announcing she's officially splitting from Peter Thomas, she is allegedly planning to move in with her ex husband and daughter's father, actor Leon Robinson.  He has residences in both L.A. and NYC, so it'll be a toss up as to which city.  The alleged reason: To support their high school aged daughter Noelle together and to help her with her dreams of entering the modeling and entertainment world.

Chile...

She also reportedly put her and Peter's Atlanta home on the market for $699,000 recently, and has already scooped up a lakefront home for herself....

Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian West can thank their lucky stars. The couple will not face criminal prosecution for that Taylor Swift recording Kim leaked online. Find out why inside….

Right after Kim Kardashian West dropped receipts to prove Taylor Swift knew Kanye West would throw in a line about her in his “Famous” track, news broke that Taylor’s lawyer fired off a threatening letter to Yeezy months ago telling him action will be taken if he releases any audio of his and Taylor's conversation.

Well, it doesn’t look like it’ll hold water in court, thanks to a loophole in the law.

According to TMZ, the Wests won’t face criminal prosecution for the recording because she had no expectation of privacy since she knew she was on speakerphone.

Here’s how it all breaks down:

In California, if someone records a "confidential communication" and the other party to the conversation doesn't know it's being taped, it's a crime. But "confidential communication" does not include conversations that "may be overheard."

Since Taylor was on speakerphone during the call and producer Rick Rubin chimed in on the conversation a few times, Taylor knew she “may be overheard.” Not only that, crew members who were in the studio were also heard talking in the background in the full clip. 

Unfortunately for Taylor, she can’t prosecute for invasion of privacy. Well she could, because sometimes dragging someone through court just because is a tactic is revenge in itself, but she may not win.

Well there’s that.

Y'all. Melania Trump apparently thought FLOTUS Michelle Obama's 2008 DNC speech was good, because she basically plagarized it for her RNC speech last night. And the internets are dragging her for filth. Deets inside...

While looking absolutely stunning in a white ensemble by UK designer Roksanda, Melania Trump tried to woo us with all her prettiness to make us not notice she jacked Michelle Obama for her speech. And we also find it interesting she was treated with kid gloves and not questioned by political talking heads or social media about her plans as a First Lady, her own experience and education, etc.  You know, like Michelle Obama was grilled despite being Ivy-league educated twice over....as well as being her husband's supervisor when they met.

But we digress.  A pretty European face apparently makes America forget a lot of things.

Melania's speech sounded eerily similar to FLOTUS Michelle Obama's 2008 DNC speech, right before her husband officially accepted the Presidential nomination.

Check out these comparisons, almost word for word:

Some are even making her into the victim saying,"Awww poor Melania.  Fire her writers."

Oh, the writers she claimed last night in an interview she didn't have because she "pretty much wrote the speech herself" according to her?

So what else could she be lying about after she seemingly plagiarized part of her speech?  Her bio on Monday night said she has a degree in Architecture from a University in Slovenia.

HuffPost said:

Slovenian journalists Bojan Pozar and Igor Omerza wrote in their biography on the former fashion model that she “became ― and remained ― a college dropout” after leaving the University of Ljubljana’s architecture school following her freshman year.

In the book, Melania Trump ― The Inside Story: From a Slovenian Communist Village to the White House, it read:

In her freshman year, the 19-year old Melanija Knavs attended lectures on the following subjects: elements of architecture, fine arts, fundamentals of technical mechanics, architectural construction, descriptive geometry, mathematics, and an ideological (read “communist”) elective credit called “General Partisan Resistance and Social Self-protection”. Melanija would have made it to her sophomore year, even having failed 2 exams, but she was supposed to have gotten and held a 1-month internship and kept a journal about it.

******

Later, in America, after meeting Donald Trump and officially becoming his partner, Melania Knauss told the media that she got her degree in architecture and design. This was almost certainly done in consultation with Trump and his advisors, as they were desperate to give off the impression that the Slovenian model was not just beautiful, but also smart and well-educated.

Trump's campaign refused to comment when asked. 

Donald Trump and co. did respond, of course, about the plagarism accusations.  They called then unfounded and false. And said Melania simply used "common words." Oh?

Anyways, the internet trolling of Melania went something like this:

EXTRAS:

1. Tamron Hall had to pop clean off on live TV on Scott Baio for his nonstop sexist and racist comments.  And the people in the backgound cheering on his disgusting comments about Michelle Obama.... STORY

Tatyana Ali reunited with her “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” family during her nuptials over the weekend. Now, she’s giving an inside look at her Caribbean inspired ceremony and more. Get it all inside….

Wedding bells rang for Tatyana Ali over the weekend as she trekked down the aisle to marry the love of her life, Dr. Vaughn Rasberry.

The nuptials were complete with an epic “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” reunion. The all grown-up “Ashley Banks” shared her special day with cast mates turned extended family members Karyn Parsons, Joseph Marcell, and Alfonso Ribeiro (along with his wife Angela Unkrich). Ahh… the nostalgia!

The 37-year-old actress, who’s expecting her first child with her now husband, married Dr. Rasberry (whom she met on eHarmony) in a Caribbean inspired ceremony held at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills in front of 120 guests Sunday afternoon.

“It’s just a little over a hundred people, she told PEOPLE. "It’s our closed friends and family and that obviously includes a lot of people that I worked with over the years.”

Gorge!  The mom-to-be and excited bride glowed in an off-white silk Amsale gown and she carried white peonies and cream garden roses as she walked down the aisle. Her bridesmaids wore tea length, raspberry-colored Amsale dresses.

The couple wrote their own vows that had several guests teary eyed during the ceremony. Aww...

While Tatyana said she wasn’t nervous about the ceremony, she did reveal she and her husband didn’t agree on one thing. And that was the cake.“I love chocolate and Vaughn loves vanilla, so we’re having a tiered cake,” she said. “I’m not into his cake and he’s not into mine! So we get to share!”

Cute.

Now, the couple is eager to the next big milestone in their life: their new baby!"I just want to see my baby," Tatyana said. "I can't wait to smell the baby. That's what I think about."

Congrats again to the happy couple!

Eve lets The Coveteur raid her closet where she opens up about what it’s like making a comeback with a new tour, her iconic paw print tattoos and life advice she has received from a few of her celeb friends. Get the highlights inside….

She’s back!

Raptress Eve is stepping back into the limelight after going on hiatus to marry her British entrepreneur Maximillion Cooper and live life in the fab lane in London, along with her adorable French bulldog.

After kicking off the “This Is What the Truth Feels Like” tour with pop singer Gwen Stafani, the self-proclaimed “pitbull in a skirt” let The Coveteur raid her fabulous closet that is filled with high-end designers such as Dior, Givenchy, Smythson, Amen and Edeline Lee.

The Ruff Ryderz First Lady dishes to the site on what it’s like going out on tour after not touring in the States for a long time, why she hasn’t darkened her signature paw print tattoos that have faded since she got them, life and career advice she has received from Ice Cube, Queen Latifah and Snoop Dog, and making sure she takes time out for herself while traveling the nation. 

Below are the highlights:

On taking time for herself while trekking around on tour: “It’s definitely difficult being on tour, but you have to remember to take time for yourself—whether that’s a steam, a workout, a massage. For me, it’s going to be walking [my dog] Hendrix. It’s a good excuse for me to get out for a minute, that’s so important. I’m really big on that. We don’t take enough time for ourselves. Sometimes, we just work work work, and you really do have to take time to recharge. Being on stage, that’s a lot of energy you put out, but it’s also a lot of energy you take in. You have to take care of yourself.”

On the theme of the tour with Gwen Stafani: “We worked really hard on my show for this tour. It’s really fun—I’m so excited! It’s definitely a lot of hard work though. I haven’t toured in the States in a long time. But, once I got the call about coming out with Gwen [Stefani], I was like, this is a good way to come back.”

“There’s a whole iridescent theme for my tour. I’m obsessed. So my nails match, too. I’m trying to make [manicurist Michelle Won] send me nails while I’m on tour so I can just press them on. Hair is my jewelry. Whatever mood, color, it definitely is what I’m feeling. This will probably be up to my chin in like a week. Getting to play with weaves and wigs is so fun. And then I can keep my hair underneath healthy.”

On how this tour is different from touring back in the day:  “It is definitely ridiculously different now than it was when I first came into the industry, in a good and bad way. You don’t have to wait to try to get signed to a label. You can, literally, do whatever you want, whatever you need to do to get your own following. Put yourself out on social media, it’s all amazing. In other ways it’s not so amazing, in terms of how music gets sold now. Ultimately, as an artist, just do your thing, put your music out there, express yourself, find your following, be on social media. That, honestly, is just the best way. Even established artists, we have to do the same thing. Just put yourself out there.”

On her tattoos: “All my tattoos are stories for me. I remember what country, what city [I got them in.] I have one right here that is a Japanese symbol and I thought it meant “Evil Eve,” which is what my uncles used to call me when I was little because I used to pout a lot. I was such a snotty little kid. So I got that and then I went to Japan and this woman was like, ‘Aw, tiger!’ And I was like, ‘No, Evil!’ And she literally gave me the face like, ‘No bitch, I’m Japanese.’ It was crazy. And then it made more sense and as I got older, I’m glad that it doesn’t say evil. I’m glad it’s just tiger and not something nuts, it worked out well.”

On her paw print tattoos: “At first, I was terrified to show my mother [my tattoos.] Because it was a dare, it was just one of those things where I was like, ‘ok, cool, I’m going to do this.’ And it was before I had gotten into the industry. Now, it’s like a birthmark. It’s crazy. Thank god they’re not lopsided because that would’ve been shitty, haha. It’s weird because I don’t think about them unless someone else mentions them. I don’t dress around them. I used to when I was getting started, but now, I never really think about them. Sometimes, they’ll pop out and I’ll be like, ‘oh, right, that’s right. They’re still there.’ I like them now though because they’re faded. A friend of mine asked me, ‘Why don’t you get them darkened?’ And I was like, actually, I kind of like that they’re faded. They’ve grown with me.”

On good advice she has received from her celeb friends: “Knock on wood, I, actually, got good advice from good people. I got great advice from Ice Cube about people in your life and taking care of your business. If you give someone a certain amount of years and they don’t show up after that time, it’s time to rotate, which makes so much sense. Queen Latifah always told me to diversify and do other things and try new things. I got really lucky with some people in the business and the wisdom they gave me. And Snoop Dogg. I kind of forgot what he told me because we were smoking, haha. Like, ‘nuts, I do remember it was a very important conversation that was very helpful, but I don’t really remember’ haha. But, he is smart as fuck because he’s been around the industry so long.”

On acting:“[Acting] has been cool. I didn’t want to act at all. When I started getting offers, I was like that’s never going to happen. And then my manager was just like, ‘Get an acting coach.’ And I said, ‘Ok.’ So I got this one acting coach and she was like, ‘Look, every time you do a video, you’re acting.’ And then that completely changed my whole idea of it. And I was like, ‘okay, that makes sense.’ She slowly brought me into it and then I fell in love with it. I still get so nervous when I’m about to go on set. It’s not second nature the way singing is for me, so there’s nerves. Bu, I love it and I always want to do a good job. They’re good nerves because I want to rise to that challenge.”

On her beauty must haves:“My three must haves are face wipes, Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream and my perfume. If I can’t get a quick shower right after the show, at least I can wipe my face down and slather that Elizabeth Arden cream on.”

You can read her full interview here.

Eve and Gwen will hit the BB&T Pavilion stage in Camden, NJ tonight (July 19th).

Lauryn Hill is speaking out about recent reports that claim she has new tax issues. Find out what she said about it all, plus get the latest on Bill Cosby going blind (and how he hopes it could work in his favor in his sexual assault case) inside…

By now, we all know Lauryn Hill has had issues with paying taxes. The IRS wasn’t playing any games and had her thrown in jail for a three-month stint around this time in 2013.

Just last week, new reports suggest that she had fell into NEW tax issues with the IRS. And now, she’s addressing these new reports.

It turns out, nothing that was reported was new. It appears to be a continuation of her ongoing tax problems.

“I wanted to address the recent reports in the media that I have new tax issues,” she wrote in a Facebook post. “This is not a new situation, I'm still taking care of past taxes.”

You’ll recall, Lauryn plead guilty to tax evasion in 2012 after not paying federal taxes. It ultimately ended her in jail. She said she’s still trying to satisfy the taxes she owes.

She continued, “This has been an ongoing process, and I have been working steadily towards a resolution. It has been an uphill battle, but we're getting over the hump."

L. Boogie vaguely explained how she got into the tax sh*tstorm writing, “I left the game, I wanted out, the way it was organized needed adjustment. When you eat a lot of other people's debts like I did, and become financially responsible for as many people as I did, a break like the one I took was necessary. It took bold, courageous moves, and cost me certain economic comforts."

Now, things are getting better and she’s just taking it one day at a time.

“But it's getting better every day, thank God, and I'm living a much more liberated existence because of it,” she concluded.

Well we’re happy to know she hasn’t gotten herself into any new tax issues.

In other news…

Chile…

After a judge ruled that Bill Cosby will stand trail in the 2004 sexual assault case brought against him by Andrea Constand, new reports claim the troubled comedian is now “completely blind.”

A source tells Page Six, Mr. Cosby can no longer see and is now “in his own personal hell” confined to his home in Pennsylvania. Oh, and that’s not all. He no longer has any friends either, but his devoted wife Camille Cosby is still by his side.

The source continued, “His alleged victims may take some solace in the fact that he’s in his own personal hell. He has been suffering from a degenerative eye disease and is completely blind . . . All his Hollywood friends have turned their backs on him. He is confined to his house in Pennsylvania, and the only person on his side is his wife, Camille, who is masterminding his defense. His only friends are the small army of lawyers on his payroll.”

Apparently, the former “Cosby Show” actor, who celebrated his 79th birthday on July 12th, has a condition called keratoconus, a condition that causes the eye’s cornea to bulge. That would explain why he’s escorted with one person on each side of him when he walks into court. Peep a few flicks HERE.

While Bill will stand trail (with the date still undetermined) for the 2004 assault case, a judge ruled in his civil case that he will be allowed to sue Andrea for allegedly breaching a confidentiality agreement she signed with him after he settled with her out of court in 2006.

Ish is getting real.

Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith and Regina Hall are still filming Girls Trip in New Orleans. Come inside to see how they got into the NOLA spirit, plus Lupita Nyong’o’s stunning Tiffany & Co. ad….

Queen Latifah, Jada Pinkett Smith and Regina Hall (along with actress Tiffany Haddish) are busy filming the upcoming Malcolm Lee-directed film Girls Trip, a comedy about a group of four friends who travel to New Orleans for the annual ESSENCE Festival where all types things pop off. The ladies rekindle their sisterhood, wild sides are rediscovered with some drinking, romancing and even a few fights.

We showed a few flicks of Queen and Jada on the set during ESSENCE Fest a few weeks ago. And now, we have new ones.

The three FAB chicks got into the NOLA spirit hopping in a traditional second line parade. The YBF ladies danced it up alongside a local brass band as they trekked through the streets of New Orleans decked out in vibrant ensembles complete with boas and feathered umbrellas.

Queen and Jada will be reuniting on-screen for the first time since the 1996 classic film Set It Off.

With “black•ish” creator Kenya Barris and Tracey Oliver writing the script and Will Packer producing, we can’t wait to check it out. It's set to hit theaters July 21, 2017. Mark your calendars!

In a new editorial...

Why so flawless Lupita?!

Gorgeous Hollywood actress Lupita Nyong’o is one of the new faces of Tiffanny & Co. bringing the simplistic fab in their newest ad campaign. And she’s one of the FIRST celebs to front the luxury jewelry brand.

The fall campaign also features actress Elle Fanning and models Christy Turlington and Natalie Westling, all shot by famed fashion photographer David Sims.

We love the simplicity of the pictorial as the Oscar winner models the "Tiffany T” bangle bracelet. Perfection!

The new ads will be released in print and online in September.

Tisha Campbell-Martin and her son Xen Martin, who has autism, were also on the scene for the gala.

Recently, Tisha took to Instagram to share her son’s progress since being diagnosed with the autism. She wrote, “#reflecting #autism there was a time when he couldnt speak. There was a time he wasn't able to say; "momma," "ouch," let alone "I love you." There was a time when people clapping or the sounds of wave crashing on the shore were like Cymbals crashing in his ears. There was a time when he couldn't stand the touch of another human being. There was a time when I wasn't able to kiss, hold or hug him. He said, "kissing hurts my skin! It's like fire! It's like I'm being burned!" #timeshavechanged #lookatwhoiskissingwho #love”

Warms our heart!

It’s really happening.

You may remember Ray J proposed to his girl Princess Love twice, once on "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" and again behind-the-scenes (which his sister Brandy confirmed).

Since the engagement, they’ve had some ups and downs (including Princess getting arrested for assaulting Ray), but it looks like their wedding is really going to happen.

Yesterday, Princess Love’s family and friends surprised her with a bridal shower yesterday to celebrate her pending nuptials. She had fun snapping flicks with her family, bridesmaids and her glam squad during the festivities.

Fun times.

No word on when the wedding will actually happen, but it will likely happen soon...if nothing goes down before then.

In other news...

The Taylor Swift vs. The Wests drama continues!

Yesterday, we told you that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian West could possibly avoid criminal prosecution for leaking a taped conversation between Ye and Taylor about his “Famous” track. It was reported that since Taylor was on speakerphone and knew other people could overhear her, so she has no expectation of privacy.

Not so fast.

Taylor still hasn’t decided if she’ll actually go through with filing a police report. The pop singer still feels Ye committed a felony. Sources tell TMZ Taylor didn’t know she was on speakerphone and although she could hear other voices in the background, she didn't know they could hear her.  She feels Kanye should have asked permission to record her. Since he didn’t, she feels he violated the law.

Not only that, it’s being reported Taylor wants the full hour conversation to be released to prove she never gave permission for Ye to call her a “b*tch” in the song. It’s said the “Famous” rapper was supposed to send her an advanced copy of the lyrics from the song, which she never received.

Sighs….

H-Town rappers Slim Thug, Paul Wall, Willie D and more are taking a stand against to promote peace and they’re putting their money into locally owned black banks to help their communities. More inside…

Houston rappers are taking action!

Rappers Slim Thug, Paul Wall, Willie D from the Geto Boys and more met up with Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner yesterday at City Hall for a private meeting to discuss solutions to end inner city violence.

The Hip Hop community is joining forces with the city to participate in the “Hope for Houston” initiative in an effort to exchange ideas on how to make the city better.

"We don't have all the answers, we might not have any of the answers, but at least we are acknowledging there is a serious problem, Paul Wall told ABC 13. “We don't want to wait until there's riots in the streets.”

"It's not just people in the hood that need to be held accountable for their actions. It's the people in law enforcement that needs to be held accountable for their actions," rapper Willie D of the Geto Boys said. "It's very important that people understand when we say black lives matter, we're not saying that blue lives do not matter."

We agree.

After meeting with the Mayor, the Hip Hop artists trekked it to Unity National Bank to open up accounts. It’s the only black-owned bank in the state of Texas. (You can find a list of black owned banks around the country HERE.)

You'll recall, Usher, Jermaine Dupri, Killer Mike and others did the same thing in Atlanta back in February during Black History Month.

This is a huge step towards helping businesses grow and thrive at the community level. And we're here for it.

The group hopes this is a step closer to ending violence and to help their communities gain financial wealth. “Even if we save just one life,” said Paul Wall. “It was a success.”

Other rappers are taking notice. T.I. showed his support on social media:

A$AP Rocky has come forward to try and explain his controversial Black Lives Matter comments in an interview that was released last year. He says his words were misquoted and taken out of context. But.....is that technically how he feels regardless? Get it all inside….

A$AP Rocky is catching HEAT on these Internet streets for an interview he did last year where he dropped some controversial comments about the Black Lives Matter movement.

In the Time Out New York interview from September 2015, the Harlem rapper was quoted as saying:

“They’re not forcing me to do sh*t. I’m just gonna stay black and die. Why, because I’m black? So every time something happens because I’m black I gotta stand up? What the f*ck am I, Al Sharpton now? I’m A$AP Rocky. I did not sign up to be no political activist. I wanna talk about my motherf*ckin’ lean, my best friend dying, the girls that come in and out of my life, the jiggy fashion that I wear, my new inspirations in drugs! I don’t wanna talk about no f*cking Ferguson and sh*t because I don’t live over there! I live in fucking Soho and Beverly Hills. I can’t relate. I’m in the studio; I’m in these fashion studios; I’m in these b*tches drawers. I’m not doing anything outside of that. That’s my life.”

Today, he stopped by Power 105’s “The Breakfast Club” to break down exactly what he meant in that interview that's being cirulated on social media. He claims his words were misquoted and taken out of context.

“I feel like that [the interview] was misconstrued," A$AP told The Breakfast Club.  “I feel like it was taken out of context and that was a misrepresentation of what I was saying and I feel like that’s where the conflict is."

A$AP revealed he does plenty of philanthropic work behind the scenes, but that’s not something he likes to talk about. He said he prefers to talk about what’s going on in his life at the moment when he’s conducting interviews.

“I would like to talk about what’s currently going on with me. I don’t feel like I have to -- every five minutes touching on a topic to be relevant or hot. If it hits home, I’ll speak on it.”

“I’m saying, if I’m in London and something is going on in L.A. and you asking me about it, I don’t want to speak about it because I wasn’t there. How can I pay my contribution to that?”

He said he hates when people just read a few lines from an interview and make an assumption about him. He said he feels black lives aren’t the only lives that matter, but that all lives matter.

“I hate when the bandwagon stuff start. How come black lives only matter when a police officer takes it? It should matter when a black life takes it. All lives matter.”

Sigh.

A$AP said he doesn’t necessarily have to speak publicly about certain issues because he’s helping the younger generation in other ways, like being the first black man to become the face of Dior.

“Me being me is just knocking down doors for people like me. I want the next A$AP Rocky to be able to do it twice as big as I did…. I stand for kids who don’t see that racism sh*t.”

He said he just wants us all to come together and be peaceful. He said he’s not here to talk about supremacy or who is dominant. He’s here to promote peace, especially for black people.

“What I try to promote is just unity. I would love to change the world, I don’t know where to start though.”

We guess he thinks bashing those who are at least attempting to start, like Black Lives Matter, is the way to go though.  Interesting.

LOVES IT! You can stop by The Game's IG page for the official rules on how to enter.

Before they hit up the grocery store:

The Game and Zulay, who’s gearing up to star in the upcoming flick Destined also starring Cory Hardrict, met up for lunch at The Ivy.

The Colombian actress, who’s currently dating model Joel Rush, and the rapper sat outside chatting it up, likely discussing their philanthropic plans.

Before he pulled off in his red drop top luxury vehicle, Game stopped for a moment to snap an "us-ie" with an eager valet worker.

In today's round up of candids, Zoe Kravitz and A$AP Rocky shop it up in NYC, Jada Pinkett Smith shoots Girls Trip in New Orleans, Mariah Carey hops on a yacht in St. Tropez and Draya makes a retail run in Beverly Hills. Pics inside…

DOPE stars Zoe Kravitz and A$AP Rocky reunited for a shopping trip in SoHo yesterday. The LOLAWOLF singer and the Dior spokesman pounded the payment in the Big Apple with a security guard following closely behind.

It appears A$AP helped Zoe pick out a few items to add to her wardrobe. She was spotted carrying a few bags as they strolled through the neighborhood (where A$AP resides).

With all of the controversy surrounding A$AP and his controversial Black Lives Matter comments, we wonder if he chopped it up with Zoe about the madness. He recently stopped by Power 105’s “The Breakfast Club” to try and explain what he meant in that infamous interview he did last year where he said he couldn’t relate to the police brutality incidents. You can find out all he said HERE.

By the way, we’re crushing on Zoe's cute Saint Laurent purse. Perfect for a quick shopping trip.

Down South....

Hollywood actress Jada Pinkett Smith is still filming in New Orleans for the upcoming flick Girls Trip. After participating in a second line with her co-stars Queen Latifah, Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish the day before, Jada was back on the set to shoot more scenes for the Malcolm Lee-directed movie.

The film will follow a group of four friends who travel to New Orleans for the annual ESSENCE Festival where the ladies rekindle their friendships, wild sides are rediscovered with some drinking, romancing and even a few fights.

The 44-year-old actress recently hit her social media to spread love and light to actress/comedian Leslie Jones who quit Twitter after racist trolls attacked her online. She tweeted:

#LoveForLeslieJ. Keep your head up and shine mama! @Lesdoggg

Meanwhile, Mariah Carey is living it up overseas...

Grammy Award winning songstress Mariah Carey is still enjoying her romantic vacation with her fiancé James Packer (not pictured) in France.

The 46-year-old mom-of-two stepped out in a lingerie-like dress as she made her way to board a yacht in St. Tropez. And in true diva fashion, she had her entourage on hand to shield her from the sun.

James stayed on the yacht while MiMi enjoyed lunch and shopped it up on the French Riviera with a few of her friends.

The singer is enjoying some down time before she kicks off her Las Vegas residency on August 24th.

Back in the States....

After showing off her latest Mint Swim designs at SwimMiami, new mom again Draya is back in Beverly Hills.

The former reality star was spotted hitting the retail scene, styling in a black curve-hugging dress. Looking good Draya.

Jay Z and Blue Ivy were spotted tagging along with Beyonce on her FORMATION Tour overseas today. Meanwhile, Tyga and his son King Cairo enjoyed a father-son lunch in L.A. Flicks inside….

Jay Z and Blue Ivy are traveling overseas with Beyonce on the European leg of her FORMATION World Tour. After rocking the stage in Milan, daddy Hov and cutie Blue were spotted making their way to the Milan airport.

The Hip Hop mogul held his daughter close as they headed inside the airport. But before little Blue hopped on a flight to her next destination, she was busy posing it up for an impromptu photoshoot.

Auntie Solange posted the adorable snaps of Blue working her magic for the camera in what we believe to be Gucci threads:

Solo captioned, "Gucci campaigns can't even touch her w a pinky toe....#proudauntie"

In another caption, she said, "Ps: She does her OWN photo edits/selections...as she should) #proudauntie" YAS Blue! Floss those photoshoot skills.

Bey is headed to Paris, France for a performance on July 21st.

Another dad on duty...

Rapper Tyga separated from his girlfriend Kylie Jenner long enough to enjoy lunch with his son King Cairo yesterday. The father-son duo hit up Genwa Korean BBQ in Beverly Hills for some good eats.

Aww....hey King! He's getting so big. He will become a big brother once his mom Blac Chyna gives birth to her baby with her fiance Rob Kardashian.

T-Raww didn't spend too much time away from his girl. He was spotted later picking up the "KUWTK" star from Milky Studio in L.A.

Come inside to see Idris Elba perform Desiigner’s “Panda” on late night television, plus Jidenna rocking the stage at the White House for FLOTUS…

British hottie Idris Elba is on the promo trail for the upcoming sci-fi thriller Star Trek: Beyond, set to hit theaters on Friday (July 22nd). He hit up “Good Morning America” in the morning and he also made a stop on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.”

During a fun segment on the late night show, the Hollywood actor hopped on the mic to perform Desiigner’s hit track “Panda,” but with a twist. He had to select a microphone from a box that distorted his voice. He jumped around just like the Brooklyn rapper and it made for good TV. He also performed Lionel Richie and Diana Ross’ “Endless Love” with Jimmy.

Get your laugh on below:

Then he showed off some of his signature dance moves:

Meanwhile...

WONDALAND artist Jidenna made his way to the White House to perform for First Lady Michelle Obama's third annual Beating the Odds Summit, part of her Reach Higher initiative and Better Make Room campaign. He also sat on the panel with FLOTUS and others to discuss the importance of a higher education and answer questions from college hopefuls.

Peep the conversation below:

Waka Flocka and The Game exchange verbal insults aimed at each other on social media. Find out what Waka said about rappers who post d*** pics being fake activist and Game’s response inside….

It appears some beef is being cooked on social media between Waka Flocka and The Game.

Yesterday, Waka took to his Instagram account to air out his frustrations about rappers who are fake activists in the wake of the recent killings of black men at the hands of police.

“Sh*t be funny to me,” Waka said in his first video. “People be like ‘Waka, why you not standing up and saying this?’ Because rap n*ggas is funny to me. One minute they shoe salesmen, they f*cking garbage men, revolutionary men, now they gangsta rappers. They f*cking models on Instagram, showing their bodies and d**k prints. These n*ggas is confused. I can’t talk about nothing I don’t fully understand. I’m not going to lead people to a f*cked up direction and make people go a certain way.”

He continued his rant in a second video saying,

“I’m just not for the lame sh*t. N*gga, I’m not finna be running around doing no black peace treaties when I can’t stop a n*gga dying in my hood. F*ck I look like trying to stop the world problems, I can’t even stop my problems in the hood.”

Peep his videos below:

 

Facts!!! Don't start this internet instigating...

Just not for the lame shit. i/we want action and truth!!!!

A video posted by WAKA FLOCKA (@wakaflocka) on Jul 20, 2016 at 8:19am PDT

While Waka didn’t name any names, The Game felt his comments were aimed at him. As you all know, Game is known for posting d*** pics and showing off his bod on social media.

Not only that, Game has been active with trying to bring about peace. He's giving away free groceries to deserving mothers, hosting anti-violence summits with celebs and meeting with the L.A. police chief in recent weeks.

So, Game posted up a video response to Waka, taking aim at his break up withhis wife Tammy Rivera (although they’ve seemingly reunited) while speaking Jamaican patois. Check it:

 

To whom it may concern: mi nah ramp wid di bumboclatt rap bwoy dem, 'specially wid a waste man dat wear dry up counterfeit locks & hav big lip like a one gyals swell up pomms dat di catch a herpes. But be'cuz mi juss a feel well & blessed today, mi a guh share some words of wisdom ... Stop catch up wid di bad mind people dem, take heed & recognize when Jah bless yuh wid a good 'ooman (Tammy). Swallow yuh pride and use all di goodness life has blessed you with to go and catch her back! Be'cuz truss when mi seh! Yuh nah whan di bad man tingz. My Yute, yuh nah whan dis yah... Back to da positive vibrations, may Jah Bless yuh on your journey. Man dem fi seh, BLACK LIVES MATTER!!!! Yah Dun Know!

A video posted by The Game (@losangelesconfidential) on Jul 20, 2016 at 2:01pm PDT

Waka got wind of Game’s video, so he decided to respond to the west coast rapper directly. He said his videos had nothing to do with Game and that they have mutal friends so he wouldn’t do that. He also wondered why Game didn’t just call him up if he thought he was taking shots at him.

“Like if you felt I was even talking about you, you should have just called me my n*gga. I wasn’t even talking about you. How many n*ggas posed with they sh*t out? I’m just saying sh*t that happened. I pose nude for PETA n*gga. I’m not ashamed of sh*t I did, I’m just talking. But if you were on positive vibes, you would’ve called me on some positive sh*t instead of being real commercial and comical about it. Turning this sh*t into some kind of war. This is real positive vibes right here. I’m not mad at you homie. But just know you fed into what the blogs wanted.

He added, “Your boy not running from nobody. It can go anyway. But let’s keep it the positive way like this positive vibe that we’re on like this Black Lives Matter movement. “

Peep the video below:

We’ll never have another First Lady as cool as Michelle Obama! Go inside to see FLOTUS rap, sing and turn up during carpool karaoke with James Corden. Missy Elliott even pops up in the mix.

Check it inside….

Get ready for some awesomeness!

We told you First Lady Michelle Obama would be joining late night host James Corden for a segment of carpool karaoke. And it’s everything we hoped it would be.

FLOTUS announced she would be the latest carpool guest when she launched her official SnapChat account last month. Now we know how it all went down.

Our gorgeous First Lady joined the late night host for a 15-minute ride around the White House while rocking out to some of her favorite tunes. The duo kicked off their ride singing the lyrics to Stevie Wonder’s classic track “Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I’m Yours,” which FLOTUS dubbed as one of her favorite songs.

Before performing their next track, Mrs. Obama revealed this was her second time in 7.5 years that she sat in the front seat of a car listening to music. She said the last time she rode in the front seat of a car was a few months ago when she rode with her daughter Malia Obama who was learning how to drive.

When asked what she would miss once her time at the White House is up, she said she would miss all of the people in the White House, but she can’t wait to get the freedom she’ll have once they leave.

“7 and a half years, that’s enough luxuriating, said FLOTUS. “I can make my own grilled cheese sandwich. I can make a mean grilled cheese sandwich.”

FLOTUS and James then began to perform Beyonce’s hit track “Single Ladies.” And Mrs. Obama nailed all of Bey’s hand gestures that she does in the video.

After “Single Ladies,” rap icon Missy Elliott pops up in the backseat to join in on FLOTUS’ girl power anthem “This Is For My Girls.” They couldn’t pass up performing an original Missy track, so the threesome followed up with a performance of Missy’s “Get Your Freak On.”

Y’all, that moment when FLOTUS rapped, “Copywritten, so don’t copy me!” Bloop!

While the segment was filmed weeks ago, it was the perfect response to Donald Trump’s wife Melania Trump plagiarizing her 2008 Democratic Convention speech.

Get your laugh on (and freak on) and find out FLOTUS and POTUS' secret service names below:

First Lady Michelle Obama is the ultimate mom-in-chief! And we’ll never have another as cool as her!
