A pregnant Tika Sumpter, John Legend and Parker Sawyers hit up the Southside With You Chicago premiere last night. Meanwhile Regina Hall and Tiffany Haddish had some fun with a Pokémon character on the set of Girls Trip. Pics inside…

Before we get a glimpse at President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama’s lives before they hit the White House in the new film Southside With You, the film’s stars hit the red carpet for the world premiere in Chicago, of course.

Southside With You will follow POTUS and FLOTUS before their wedding, two gorgeous daughters and political elections, when they were two legal associates at the same law firm on the southside of Chicago. Viewers will get an inside look at their very first date that will surely warm your heart.

Last night, a pregnant Tika Sumpter (who plays Michelle), her co-star Parker Sawyers (who plays Barack) and executive producer John Legend were all smiles on the red carpet at the Music Box Theatre, where part of the movie was shot.

Southside With You hits theaters August 25th.

On a movie set...

Regina Hall, Tiffany Haddish, Mike Colter and producer Will Packer are currently in New Orleans filming scenes for the upcoming comedy Girls Trip, starring opposite Queen Latifah and Jada Pinkett Smith. The film is about four friends who venture out to ESSENCE Festival for some good times and unfortunately stumble upon some not so good times.

On the set, the cast was surprised with a visit from a life sized Pokémon character for a little fun.

Mike (pictured above) is a busy man these days. Along with shooting scenes for Girls Trip, he's hitting the promo trail for his upcoming superhero series "Luke Cage," set to premiere September 30th on Netflix.

We wonder if any of them are playing the Pokémon Go game. He should count for something. Ha!

In case you missed, peep more on-the-set flicks from the film HEREand HERE.

Porsha Williams just copped a new ‘do and it appears she has a new boo as well. More inside…

Laid and slayed!

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Porsha Williams has ditched her long, flowy tresses and did the big chop! The reality star recently got her hair cut by stylist Jasmine "Razor Chic of Atlanta" Collins and its super cute.

Peep her cropped coif below:

Perfect cut for the summer!

As for what else is new in her life...

It appears Porsha has moved on from Oliver and got herself a new man. A few days ago she posted a lovey, dovey shot of herself and her mystery boo on Instagram with the caption,“I miss my #Him [heart emoji].”

Her brother JD rolled up in her comments section to comment on her seemingly new relationship. He wrote:

Ha!

We strolled through her Instagram account and found severeal flicks of Porsha and her new boo all hugged up over the last few months:

Back in June, Porsha celebrated her 35th birthday with friends and her new beau was right by her side:

Not mad. Get it Porsha.

We wonder if he'll make an appearance on "RHOA" season 9 coming this fall.

The 2016 Rio Olympics have been exciting to watch over the last few weeks. We’ve rounded up some of the best moments of our YBF athletes battling it out in their field as they gun for gold. Peep our massive gallery inside…

From gymnast powerhouse Simone Biles sweeping up medal after, to medal to Simone Manuel’s history making win, becoming the first African-American woman to win an Olympic gold in swimming, to Tianna Bartoletta nabbing the gold in the women’s long jump, this year’s Olympic Games in Rio has been one for the books!

Since the opening ceremony (on August 5th), we’ve been glued to our televisions watching as many competitions as we can, totally obsessed with all of the #blackexcellence our YBF athletes have exuded on camera and behind-the-scenes for the last two weeks. And it was worth it!

And the fact that comedienne Leslie Jones was offered a free trip to Rio by NBC to take part of the network's coverage after enthusiastically live-tweeting about events prior, we just can't get enough of all the Olympic festivities!

It’s now coming out that Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte and his teammates lied about being robbed and held at gunpoint at a gas station in Rio. And he’ll likely get away with it due to his white privilege. Let’s discuss inside…

The Internet is abuzz with the latest news that Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte lied about being robbed at gunpoint while stopping at a gas station in Rio.

Here’s what we know…

Ryan Lochte and his teammates were in a taxi where they stopped at a gas station to use the restroom. According to the police, they say one or more of them vandalized the restroom by peeing on the walls. A security guard arrived catching them in the act and he allegedly had a gun. It was reported the swimmers ended up paying for the damage (about $50) and left the scene before the police arrived. That’s when they made up the fake robbery story and returned to the Olympic Village with said wallets in their hands that they claimed were stolen.

Now, Lochte said he and his teammates had been pulled over by armed men where one of them put a gun against his head before demanding cash from his wallet. Two completely different stories.

Below is footage from the gas station's surveillance cameras:

As The Root points out, Ryan and his buddies will likely get off because of…white privilege.

This is white privilege’s version of patriotism.

Brazilian officials attempted to confiscate Lochte’s passport, but he had already hightailed it out of the country, leaving his teammates behind. And those teammates eventually fessed up to lying. I’m sure the thought of having to sit in a Brazilian jail for six months for filing a false police report isn’t sitting well with them.

So what will happen with Lochte? I’m guessing nothing.

Lochte seems more concerned about his hair than explaining why he lied.

According to the NY Times:

The judge who oversees the special court handling the case said the crime the athletes have been accused of — making false statements about a crime — “is not that serious.” He said it would not result in any time in prison if they were found guilty.

This morning, Ryan issued an apology where he basically blames the language barrier as the reason he lied. Whet?

He said:

https://t.co/n82dZH2gflpic.twitter.com/rGp1nmA94G

— Ryan Lochte (@RyanLochte) August 19, 2016

What's even more uncanny is the statement released from the International Olympic Committee Statement from USOC simply calling Ryan and his teammates "kids" who should catch a break because they were simply having fun:

Official statement from IOC #Rio2016 spokesman Mario Andrada on #LochteGate. It's amazing. pic.twitter.com/4B03on17QL

— Greg Wyshynski (@wyshynski) August 18, 2016

"I do not regret having apologized. No apologies from him or other athletes are needed. We have to understand that these kids came here to have fun. Let’s give these kids a break. Sometimes you make decisions that you later regret. They had fun, they made a mistake, life goes on.”

Mario Andrada, the Rio Committee's communications director also responded, accepting Ryan's apology:

"We obviously accept Lochte's apologies. However, we think the Brazilian people were hurt by their [swimmers] attitude. It was clear that much of the population felt humiliated by this false robbery claim and people worried that the image of Brazil was damaged by this incident, but, as we say in Brazil, 'A lie has got short legs.' And the population should be proud of our image around the world."

So, when Gabby Douglas doesn't place her hand over her heart during the National Anthem she's unpatriotic, but when Ryan and his teammates destroy a gas station in Rio and LIE about it they're just "kids having fun?" And y'all know if Ryan and his teammates were black all hell would broke loose.

SPEAK ON IT!

NeNe Leakes is responding to reports that an $830,000 lien has been placed on her Georgia home. And she doesn’t seem bothered by it. Find out why inside…

Recent reports suggest “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star NeNe Leakes was hit with a federal tax lien last month in a Georgia court that claims she owes $830,000 in back taxes, stemming from 2014. The government wants their money and if she doesn’t cough it up, her assets will be frozen.

Now, Nene is addressing the tax issue. But she clearly doesn’t seem bothered by it all. The 48-year-old, who’s currently celebrating her husband Gregg’s birthday in Vegas, posted up a picture of herself (above) smiling with the caption:

"Running out the hotel to pay this bill y'all know I ain't got no jobsssssss let me borrow 20$ #unstoppableNene #oversight #shaneinthebacktripping."

Being she used an “oversight” hashtag, it seems she may have mistakenly overlooked her taxes in 2014. Not sure how that’s possible, but we assume that’s what she’s sticking to. Guess she's till "rich" just forgot to pay her taxes. Hmph.

Frank Ocean just pulled off the best mix of past and present we've seen thus far from an album release. Get into his brand new project Blonde inside, and the epic roll out....

Fresh off his middle-of-the-night release of Endless, the video album, Frank dropped more music for his forever-waiting fans.  A lot more music.

Everyone has been trying to pull off the surprise album factor like Beyoncé has done flawlessly a couple of times.  But Frank is giving it a new twist.

In an effort to release his music when HE wanted to, and as a whole project as opposed to singles, Frank just did something kinda epic. 

Inside of surprise pop up shops in major cities in the U.S. & UK, the New Orleans native gave away 366-page art magazines entitled Boys Don't Cry on Saturday.  The mags are now going for upwards of $1000 on Ebay thanks to reported Kanye West involvement and photographer It's the album title the world has been made privy to for several months, but the other night, it was reported Frank was changing the name last minute.  While the 'zine still has the title, the new album he also released on Saturday is called Blonde.  Or Blond, depending on where you copped the album.

Blonde is available now via iTunes, as well as in CD form inside the magazines.  Yep, Frank is throwing it back to cd's buried inside of cd artwork pamphlet days in a grand way.

He also just threw in a provocative video for "Nikes," the first song on the album.  Check it on his tumblr.

Hypebeast gave folks a peek inside the zine, and it looks pretty hot:

Frank took to his Tumblr to address folks saying,“I had the time of my life making all of this. Thank you all. Especially those of you who never let me forget I had to finish. Which is basically every one of y’all.”

 

Leafing through a copy of Frank Ocean's "Boys Don't Cry, Issue 001" at the official pop up shop in NYC. Shouts to @younglordchao for opening his copy and showing what's inside #FrankOcean

the album is called "Blonde" btw pic.twitter.com/9sP18Lfcd2

— Joe Coscarelli (@joecoscarelli) August 20, 2016

He definitely doesn't have a sophomore studio album curse.  Blonde is giving deepness, some sex appeal, unapologeticness, and it'swell worth the four-year wait.

It’s not over until Drake says it’s over! Go inside to see how Drizzy popped off on his nemesis Meek Mill in Meek's hometown of Philly during his concert over the weekend and more…

Drake wasn’t lying when he said he was looking for revenge all summer sixteen.

Last night, the Young Money rapper rolled his “Summer Sixteen Tour” (with Future) into Philly, Meek Mill’s hometown. Drizzy had plenty to say and held NOTHING back.

After poppin’ off on Meek in D.C. (we’ll get to that later), Drake unleashed another verbal lashing aimed at Meek. He changed the lyrics to his original Meek-diss track “Back to Back,” where at the end, he offered up some fight worthy words aimed at Meek.

He said,

“And just remember, when you watch that video over and over tonight, it’s not about your city. I love your city. You did that shit to your motherf*ckin’ self, boy!”

On another track “Still Here,” Drizzy changed up the lyrics rapping, “Man, you not really from Philly and they can tell, nigga!”   Shots fired!

Check it:

After Drake’s performance, Meek took to Instagram to respond, claiming Drake snuck out the back door of the venue with heavy police presence. He posted (then deleted the caption):

“When u run out the back door wit 12 and use the “old man” 2 save you! I’m done “you had Philadelphia swat with you” Ima go head hang it up with these suckas! Had y’all tucked in back there for hrs lol #stillrunning.”

And there seems to be some truth to what Meek said about Drake being escorted out by police as a video surfaced of police officers lined up outside of the venue waiting for Drake to come out.

There were a few guys outside of the gate who were pissed at Drake for going in on Meek in Philly. J. Prince, who is a longtime friend of Drake’s, is seen chopping it up with the guys after the show:

By the way, the Canadian rapper brought out his boss Lil Wayne during his show in Philly as well:

This nigga Drake popping hella shit and he in Philly tomorrow . pic.twitter.com/es2HPdcXKx

— DJ Akademiks (@IamAkademiks) August 21, 2016

The "Controlla" rapper changed up his "Back to Back" lyrics, calling Meek a "p*ssy!" Sounds like fighting words. Peep the clip above.

Backstage....

He even linked up with actor Kevin Spacey, who's gearing up to return to our obsession "House of Cards" for season 5 next year, captioning "SUMMER SIXTEEN TOUR IN DC WITH THE PREZ."

We told you Meek and his girlfriend Nicki Minaj are still going strong despite what the rumor mill says. After news broke that they are leasing a home together for $30,000 a month, Meek posted up the shot above of himself and Nicki on a bike with their home in the background and with the caption, "we good... WE GOOOD!"

Meek also let his fans know that he's dropping his album DC4 in September. We're sure a Drake diss or two will be sprinkled in for good measure.

Kobe Bryant may have hung up his jersey from basketball, but he’s still hard at work. Get the deets on his brand new $100 million venture-capital fund inside…

Life after basketball is looking good for retired NBA baller Kobe Bryant.  REALLY GOOD.

The former Laker, who turns 38 tomorrow, just unveiled his venture-capital fund, a $100 million vehicle for investing in technology, media and data companies, according to the Wall Street Journal.  Yep, he's looking for companies and people to stuff $100 millie into.

Kobe has joined forces with longtime entrepreneur and investor Jeff Stibel (who began his career in brain research and later founded and developed tech companies) to start their own firm called Bryant Stibel that will be based in L.A. They’re coughing up $100 million which they expect to invest over the next few years without seeking any outside investors yet.

— Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) August 22, 2016

Since 2013, the two have invested in over 15 companies, but they decided to make their partnership official once Black Mamba left the league. So far, they’ve invested in companies like sports media website The Players Tribune, videogame designer Scopely, legal-services company LegalZoom, a telemarketing-software firm called RingDNA and a home-juicing company called Juicero.

In an interview with WSJ, Kobe said,“Sometimes you can spot it right away, other times not so much. It’s the inner belief that a person has that he will endure no matter what the obstacle may be. It’s that persistence, the entrepreneur doing what he or she truly believes in and truly loves to do.”

— Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) August 22, 2016

They’re not looking to invest in companies that will use Kobe as an endorser; they’re looking to add value to the companies they’re investing in. Jeff told the publication,

“We don’t want to be in the business of investing in companies so someone can use Kobe as an endorser. That’s not interesting. The point is to add real value.”

Kobe said his main focus right now is to help others become successful:

“Age tends to give you perspective. The most important thing I enjoy now is helping others be successful. I enjoy doing that much much more, that’s something that lasts forever, and hope they do that for the next generation.”

Nice!

Like most athletes after retirement, Kobe is entering a new realm of competition.  He said he's not looking to compete with other NBA stars, but he's looking to lend a helping hand:

“I think it’s interesting that the immediate reaction from people would be competitiveness between myself and others. I’m more interested in how I can help Shaq, Melo [Anthony] or [NBA player Andre] Iguodala.”

That's what's up. Congrats Kobe!

Phaedra Parks and the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast linked up for a charity pop up shop in Atlanta over the weekend. Get the pics inside….

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Phaedra Parks hosted a charity pop-up shop at the B-Loft on Chattahoochie Avenue over the weekend in Atlanta to help raise a few funds for her non-profit organization. She called up all of her “RHOA” co-stars to take part in the event, showcasing their merchandise for customers. And, of course, the cameras were rolling to capture it all.

So it's safe to say everyone is returning for the new season...

Phaedra kept it pretty in a pink jumpsuit while posing it up in front of her book booth where she was selling some of her "Secrets of the Southern Belle" books.

Phaedra’s right hand man/oldest son Ayden Nida was on hand to sell some of his delicious snacks to hungry customers.

How cute! 

Porsha Williams, who recently copped a new short ‘do, was on hand to sell her Naked lingerie and weave bundles for charity.

Cynthia Bailey also had a booth to sling her Cynthia Bailey Eyewear and handbags.

Kenya Moore had her booth decked out with her Kenya Moore Hair Care products.

Sheree Whitfield hit the carpet rocking a "frenemies" shirt with her face and Marlo Hampton's face plastered on the front.

And Kandi Burruss Tucker was there with her Bedroom Kandi sex toys. Kandi posted up a video encouraging fans to make their way to the pop up shop. It appears attendance was sort of low, likely due to the Bronner Bros. Hair Show that was going on the same day:

 

My first stop of the day is the #PhaedraFoundation Pop Up Shop! Come thru! @cynthiabailey10 @thekenyamoore @porsha4real @phaedraparks @shereewhitfield @lenahuggs @malbaileymassie

A couple who makes that money together, stays together.  We hope.  Brandy, Ray J and Princess Love unveiled two new projects they’re working on together at the Bronner Bros. Hair Show. Flicks inside….

Over the weekend in Atlanta…

“Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” newlyweds Ray J and Princess and big sister Brandy stepped out to attend the Bronner Bros International Hair Show to unveil two new projects they’re working on.

Fresh from their royal wedding last weekend, the Norwoods were all smiles as they made their way down the carpet:

After checking out some of the bizarre hairstyles on the runway, the Norwoods unveiled two new projects that they’re currently launching. Ray has launched a new tech company called Raytroniks that develop his Scoot-E-Bike electronic bikes, which sell for $1,599 online. If you follow Ray on social media, then you know he’s obsessed with these electronic bikes. So, he started a tech company centered around the new gadget.

We've seen several celebs endorse the product, including Diddy, The Game, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown and more.

"Companies have been trying to promote this style of electric bikes for about two years now, and nobody was able to impact America," Ray J told Mashable earlier this year.

"I first saw this kind of bike in Miami and then we did our due diligence and started studying [similar] bikes in China. Then we took the bike across the country and started to talk to tastemakers just to see if someone was already ahead of the game. But no one had ever seen [this kind of] electric bike. So after seeing the way the bike made people feel, we immediately began building the company around this product."

Ray gave away one bike each day he attended the hair show.

The Norwoods also hit the stage to debut their “HairTronics” umbrella company to the public. Under the umbrella brand, Brandy will showcase her long awaited hairline and Princess will show off her new clothing line. She even hosted a fashion show during the hair show to show off her latest designs.

After hitting the stage, Ray and Princess got all lovey dovey with one another:

Ray J with the dirty thoughts running through his mind look...

Well aren't they cute.

Now that Ray and Princess have officially tied the knot, it's time for them to collect those coins!

Bobby Brown is out here slanging these books! And he brought his new baby girl Bodhi and the fam along for a signing in L.A. Meanwhile, Katt Williams and his girl Hazel-E are seemingly back together. Flicks and deets inside…

Bobby Brown had the Internet on fire when excerpts from his memoir “Every Little Step” surfaced. Remember when he said he had sex with a ghost and Janet Jackson broke his heart back in the day? Yeah, it's many things.

Now that the book has been released, the former New Edition singer is on the promo trail. He held a book signing at the Leimert Park Village Book Fair in L.A. recently and he brought out his whole family, including his 1-year-old baby girl Bodhi, little Cass, and it looks like 1-month-old Hendrix made an appearance too.

Bobby’s wife Alicia Etheredge was all smiles as she cradled little Bodhi who was looking super cute in her pink outfit with matching pink and white Nike sneakers. 

Bobby's son Cassius was also there hanging out with the fam. Cute.

Elsewhere....

Well look who kissed and made up!

It appears comedian Katt Williams got his girl Hazel-E back after she chucked deuces when police raided her house with guns looking for the troubled comedian earlier this year. At the time, she said she was done with drama, but would consider getting back with him if he got his act together. Well, he must have gotten his act together.

The twosome were spotted in the stands at the L.A. Rams vs. Kansas City Chiefs pre-season football game. She posted the picture above on Instagram and captioned,"Some bonds are just Un-breakable... #gorams"

Breakups to make ups.

Rapper The Game was also in the mix, repping L.A. with his homie Dre. Fun times.

He should be an expert at daddyhood by now.  DMX just welcomed his 15th child.  And he also damn near risked it all by falling off of a stage.  We've got the deets inside...

Congrats are in order for DMX and his longtime girlfriend Desiree Lindstrom!  They just welcomed a new baby boy.  Baby makes 15 for X.  Yes, his 15th child.

While TMZ says it's Desiree's first child, other reports say she and X MAY have an older child together.  This has not yet been confirmed.

The baby's name is reportedly Exodus Simmons and weighed 6 lbs, 10 oz. at birth.  Desiree revealed she had a c-section saying on her Facebook page:

"Need to get this stomach down it looks like it might be so hard because of this c section..."

She seems overjoyed about her new bundle of joy. She said:

"I'm so in love with my son happy he's here...God knows he loves me how he just blessed us with this blessing of a baby I love."

She's got the breastfeeding thing down too saying, "Omg I'm so happy the milk is coming out my breast now God is good feel like a great mom amen."

When Desiree popped out baby Exodus in NYC on Friday, DMX was away performing in Phoenix.  He has 15 mouths to feed afterall.

He jetted to NYC that night for baby's first night in the world, and he told media he feels "blessed."

BONUS:

Last week, DMX was performing "How's It Going Down" in Rochester and some type of way fell off the stage mid-performance!  The irony isn't lost on us.

He got up and kept rapping though.  Good for him.

Tika Sumpter and John Legend are joining forces for a series about "Black Wall Street." Get those deets, plus find out new Ironman Riri Williams’ official superhero name inside…

With movies like Birth of a Nation, 12 Years a Slave, and SELMA blowing up at the box office, there’s another American history series coming down the pipeline for the small screen joining the likes of "Underground."  This series, though, will show black people in a different light.

Back in the early 1900s, strong middle-class African-Americans created their own “American dream” only to have everything they worked so hard for burned down by racist whites.

According to Deadline, "Black Wall Street" is in the early development stages after Get Lifted Co. and WGN America inked a new deal. Get Lifted is run by R&B crooner John Legend, Mike Jackson and Ty Stiklorious and they’re gearing up to tell a story we all need to see. Southside With You starlet Tika Sumpter has jumped on board as an executive producer of the project.

Here’s what the series will be about:

Set in Tulsa, OK, in the opening decades of the 20th century, Black Wall Street examines the strong middle-class African-American community that built up in the divided city. Owning businesses and employing many whites in the segregated state, the Greenwood area of Tulsa was a haven for black professionals and raised capital for its own entrepreneurs and ventures. In May 1921, several white attackers burned the neighborhood in a two-day rampage that saw 300 die and the community devastated and largely forgotten for decades.

With WGN America’s “Underground” series becoming the network’s most-watched original series ever (and renewed for season 2!), it’s pretty much a no-brainer for the network to tell this incredible story for the masses.

There are still very few details about the series, but if it’s picked up for a series, it could debut in 2018. We’re all the way here for this one.

In superhero news...

She’s got her official name now!

Marvel’s superhero character Riri Williams, the new focal point of the new Ironman installment, will be named Ironheart!

“Ironheart” is the black 15-year-old teen prodigy who is a science genius enrolled at MIT that will carry on the Ironman series. She reverse-engineered one of Iron Man’s old armors all by herself in her dorm room, and will soon be hitting the big screen for her first big adventure.

As we told you, YBF teen Skai Jackson is the visual inspiration behind the new character, so it will be interesting to see if she actually lands the part. We’re keeping our fingers crossed.

Who’s excited?

Nope! There is no Last Friday on the way, according to Ice Cube. Someone set up a fake Facebook account as Cube's son O'Shea Jackson Jr. and announced that he would be starring in a new installment of "Friday." But, it's all fake.

BONUS #2:

Olympic gold medal boxer Claressa Shields, who nabbed a gold medal during the 2016 Rio Olympics, will have her life story told in an upcoming Hollywood film.

Universal Pictures picked up the life rights to Claressa’s story and want to bring it to the big screen in a Rocky-esque movie, following a 2015 documentary titled “T-Rex” that debuted on PBS earlier this month.

In an interview with the Flint Journal from Australia, she threw out a few high-profile celebs she would like to see star in the film: "I'm excited and now all I can think is, 'Who's going to play me in the movie?' I think Ice Cube should play (my ex-trainer) Jason (Crutchfield), and KeKe Palmer should play me."

Nice. Congrats Claressa!

A shirtless and sweaty Idris Elba? Yes PLEASE! Go inside to get the deets on why the British hottie is getting extra shredded…

What did we do to deserve this? Idris Elba showing off his new trimmed physique has us turning up the air conditioner a notch.

And now we know why the British hottie is working his a** off to get in shape.

The two-time SAG Award winner is pushing his mind and body to the limit for a three-part docu-series where he will transform into a professional kickboxer. The new series is titled “Idris Elba: Fighter.”

Apparently, Idris is a huge fan of kickboxing, so he decided to take his love for the sport to a whole new level. By the end of his training, he will hop in the ring to battle it out against a seasoned fighter in a no-holds-barred fight, according to Shadow & Act.

The new limited series was shot in several countries, including the UK, Cuba, Japan, South Africa and Thailand, where the 43-year-old receives mentoring from former world champions, coaches and trainers to up his chances in the ring for the main event that's expected to go down in October.

“It has been a lifelong ambition of mine to fight professionally. Entering the ring to further test myself as a human being is a challenge I have been looking to take on for quite some time,” Idris told the press.

The Beasts of No Nation star loves to re-invent himself. Outside of being an actor, he’s also a DJ and recently revealed he wants to get into directing.

Peep a few clips of Idris going hard in the gym to get into tip-top shape:

 

Two weeks left. For my Chuuus.

Idris’ Green Door Pictures production company is behind the project and it’s expected to make its premiere in early 2017 on the Discovery Channel. Are you here for it?

We for damn sure are....

Matching couples usually make us want to gag, but The Carters showed folks how to pull it off properly.  Check out Beyoncé & Jay Z rocking matching grey suits inside, plus Jay's necessary strong arm on a fan who got way too close to his wife....

A cute grey striped short suit for Mrs. Carter, and a lax grey suit for Mr. Carter.  Bey & Jay showed up to last night's Hands of Stone premiere in NYC rocking matching -- but not identical -- outfits.  And it's super cute.

We see Bey came back from vacay ready to slay.

Hands of Stone star Usher got the power duo to pose it up for his Snapchat, calling them his family.

While leaving the party, an over zealous fan pushed through the crowd to run up on Beyonce and snap a selfie. 

Jay wasn't having that ish.  He put up the strong arm to get the fan out of the way, and he let security handle it so he doesn't cop a case:

They warned us back in '03, don't let the necessary occur.

Now, where's Julius?!

Total Knockout! The YBF stars aligned last night at the Hands of Stone NYC premiere where Usher, Sugar Ray Leonard, Beyonce, Jay Z and more were in attendance. Flicks inside…

Last night was fight night!

The red carpet was rolled out at the SVA Theater in NYC for the premiere of the highly anticipated Hands of Stone film. R&B crooner Usher linked up with boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard for a knockout flick together as they made their way down the carpet.

The boxing film tells the story of boxing legend Roberto Duran.  Usher will star as Duran’s ultimate rival Sugar Ray.

In an interview with the “TODAY” show, the Grammy Award winning artist said one of the reasons he was chosen to play the iconic athlete was because his skill in choreographed movements are similar to Sugar Ray’s. “I didn’t prepare like it was an acting role," he told the morning show. “I prepared liked a boxer.”

As expected, the cast also hit the carpet with Usher, including Ana de Armas, Robert De Niro and his wife Grace Hightower, and Edgar Ramirez, who will star as Roberto Duran.

Roberto’s nickname in the ring was “Manos de Piedra” which translates to “Hands of Stone.”

De Niro is set to play Roberto’s aging trainer Ray Arcel, who makes a comeback in the boxing world after he was forced to retire.

Actress Ana de Armas is set to star as Roberto's wife and mother of his children, Felicidad.

“Quantico” star (and one of our current girl crushes) Priyanka Chopra was on the scene to support.

By the way, Priyanka will return to the small screen in the new season of "Quantico" which premieres Sunday, September 25th at 10/9c.

What's a premiere without a few selfies with the fans lined up outside?

Brooklyn native and actress Rosie Perez is a huge boxing fan, so it was no surprise to see her on the scene snapping it up with Sugar Ray.

Then, the Carters rolled up on the scene in matching gray suits looking like the ultimate power couple that they are: 

Beyonce and Jay Z were on the scene to support their good friends Usher and Robert De Niro. 

Usher shared the cutest coupledom snap shot of the couple with the caption "Familia" on SnapChat.

And Bey showed off her sophisticated style:

Gorge.

By the way, check out how Jay had to strong arm a fan who tried to get a selfie with Bey HERE. Ha!

DJ D-Nice was tapped to provide the tunes during the premiere and he nabbed a shot with music manager Jaha Johnson and Roc Nation Sports exec Shawn "Pecas" Costner. Fun times!

Hands of Stone hits theaters Friday, August 26th.
