After hitting her dance moves during Beyonce’s last FORMATION World Tour stop, tennis superstar Serena Williams stepped out for some fun with her girls. And her girl squad included actress Zoe Kravitz and Pop star Taylor Swift.

The girl gang was spotted tip toeing to Bowery Ballroom for a concert from Sting’s daughter Eliot Sumner.

Married couple John Legend and Chrissy Tegien did a fancy dinner date night at the “Bank of America Dinner” held at the Bank of America Building in NYC last night. The dinner was a charity event to support the No Kid Hungry and Food Bank for New York City.

And we know the food was good because the Food Network and the Cooking Channel hosted it.

Chrissy, who loves to whip up meals in the kitchen and has her own cookbook titled "Cravings," was tapped to host the intimate dinner.

GET MONEY: Beyoncé's Formation Tour Grossed Over $250 MILLION + Chris Rock Nabbed One Of The Biggest $40 Million Comedy Deals EVER

Beyoncé just made making $250 million look really easy, and you can add that to the long list of reasons why she's the Queen.  Deets on her ridiculously profitable Formation tour inside, plus how Chris Rock is pulling in some serious millions himself.

When you can make $250 million while doing what you love for five months, that's boss ish.  The Formation tour numbers are in, and Beyoncé did just that.  Well, $256,084,556 to be exact.

Billboard reports the Lemonade queen raked in nine figures and sold over 2 million tix while making her way around North America and Europe:

Beyonce’s Formation stadium tour wrapped Oct. 7 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., as an unqualified blockbuster, taking in over $256,084,556 and selling 2.2 million tickets, according to Billboard Boxscore. The tour, which began April 27 at Marlins Park in Miami, averaged a whopping $5.2 million in gross and 45,757 paid attendance per show.

Sheesh!

She made the most mula from two sellouts at London’s Wembley Stadium July 2-3 where she rossedg $15.3 million and sold 142,500 tickets.  Her second biggest numbers: Two sellouts at New York’s City’s Citi Field with $11.5 million made and 73,486 tickets sold.

Her tour promoter Arthur Fogel, of LiveNation, credits her "rabid fanbase" and ability to be an "amazing performer."  We basically told Bey to take ALL our money in 2016, so we can co-sign that analysis.

And to think, Beyoncé tour that was all about unapologetic black power amidst haters turned out to be her highest grossing tour to date.

By the way:

Bey & Jay and the rest of the TIDAL family hit the stage tonight for the TIDAL X 1015 concert at the Barclays Center.

 

In other money making news:

He hasn't hit the stand up stage with a special in years, but he's still commanding top dollar.  Chris Rock reportedly will get $40 million total for two new Netflix specials.

The Oscars host is said to have nabbed a more lucrative deal than A-list comedians as Louis C.K., Jerry Seinfeld and Amy Schumer have ever commanded.

After his recent Emmy nomination for directing Amy Shumer's special, a successful hosting gig at the Academy Awards this past year and a memorable role on Fox's "Empire" last season, he's ready to get back to what he does better than pretty much anyone.

The Hollywood Reporter says:

After an eight-year absence, the multiple Emmy-winning comedian has signed a massive pact with Netflix for two stand-up specials, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. Sources say Rock has secured a whopping $40 million for the specials, which sets a new high mark for a stand-up comic. The $20 million per special is believed to be more than such A-list comedians as Louis C.K., Jerry Seinfeld and Amy Schumer have commanded.

“I'm very excited to be working with Ted and Lisa and all the good people at Netflix. I can't wait to get back on stage," Chris told the media this past week.

He's set to tape the first show in 2017 before rolling out a world tour.

 

That's all fine and good, but what we really want to know is what he and ratchet reality treasure (and our low key obsession) Cardi B. are up to?  The streets need to know...

Amber hit dance rehearsal yesterday as she preps for Monday's big double elimination night.  And that bawdy of hers is hard to miss.

 photo 158280PCN_AmberRoseBodysuit015_zpsdoofmt2u.jpg

"DWTS" had a no-elimination week last week, which is good for Amber because she's been consistently in the bottom few.

 photo amberne2_zps8auujeb3.jpg photo gunson1_zpszctpg7nv.jpg

If she doesn't get a Mirror Ball trophy out of this, she'll for sure go home with an even crazier body thanks to the daily workouts.

 

A few weeks ago she got off to a struggle of a start. But last week she got some of her highest scores. Still, she's in danger of being eliminated this week.

Good luck to her.

In other tv news:

In case you missed it, the newest sneak peek for "Star" on Fox dropped before the weekend.  We see the drama that's about to go down on the star-filled show , and when "Empire" goes on winter break, this looks like it'll be the perfect fill in.

Lee Daniels created the girl-group-gone-crazy show, and it stars Queen Latifah, Lenny Kravitz, Naomi Campbell and more:

After shutting down the stage in both Detroit and Kansas City on The Hits Tour, it seems like Toni Braxton's sold out shows may have been a bit much for her to handle.  She recently had another incident with her Lupus that led to her being in serious condition in the hospital for days.

A note posted to her Instagram account just a little while ago says she was hospitalized Saturday afternoon in Cleveland due to complications with her Lupus.  She will now have to miss her Cleveland show tonight:

 photo tonibhospital_zpshxrzsamu.jpg

Her Executive Assistant Lorenzo Williams reassured fans saying:

Don't worry, our girl @tonibraxton will be alright! She's going to bounce back like she always does!!! She's such a damn workaholic, but she needs rest!!!!!!! The dr wanted to admit her, she refused and said she had a show tonight and would return after the show...but the DR said nope! You're health comes first, It's time to focus on YOU! Praying for, and speaking into existence, a speedy recovery. #SheHasLupusItDoesntHaveHer #WeWillBeBackTrustANDBelieve #TheyDontMakeThemLikeThisAnymore

 

Interestingly, Toni brought out her rumored bae Birdman the other night at her show in Kansas City:

Just a few nights ago while on stage, Toni broke down in tears after saying she had just found out about actor Tommy Ford's death. She then went on to sing "How Could An Angel Break My Heart."

Get well soon Toni!

Beyoncé is a G...no shocker there.  Check out how she pushed through her Tidal concert set Saturday night -- blood, sweat and all.

Beyoncé stuck that extra long braided ponytail in her hair again for the Tidal x 1015 concert at Brooklyn Barclays Center.  And apparently, it backfired.  While belting out our fave track "Haunted," chick whipped her braid and it seemingly ripped her earring out her ear. 

While blood oozed out, she casually wiped her ear with her hand...and kept singing as if nothing was wrong.  No beats missed.

No judgment here.  We could name a few celebs we could say #thiscouldbeus about.  But Nicki Minaj just totally lost it when she met Lauryn Hill last night.

Both Nicki and L Boogie rocked the stage at the TIDAL x 1015 concert last night at the Barclays Center.  So when they caught up backstage, Nicki dropped to her knees and sang her praises, telling her SHE is the reason why Nicki is who she is.  Awww.

The Queens rapper said about her Jersey-born raptress idol:

It could all be so simple...but you'd rather make it hard...lovin u is like a battle...and we both end up w/scars. Tell me... who I have to be to get some reciprocity...see no one loves u more than me...and no one ever will. ~ YIKEEESSSSSSS ms Lauryn hill was so ahead of her time (and still is). Queen. Epic. The bar. The truth. The best. The greatest. The light. God pls bless her for what she gave to us all The miseducation of Onika

And here's what happened when she laid eyes on Ms. Hill:

Sweet!

Right before the mushy love fest, Nicki was in her pasties, thong and see-thru catsuit practicing her twerk routine before hitting the stage with it:

Michel'le's Lifetime Biopic Had Pretty Much Everyone In Slight Shock, And She's Now Writing A Book

She's still standing.  But based on her biopic, she went through hell to do so.  Let's discuss the Michel'le movie inside...

 

Now we see why Dr. Dre and co. conveniently left out any and every piece of evidence to show the other side of him in the Straight Outta Compton movie.  The super talented Michel'le put her decades-long claims into movie form and her Surviving Compton biopic aired last night on Lifetime.  It had everyone in a stupor.  The only thing that would have topped that movie is if Dre started livestreaming with his side right then...on a split screen.

 photo Cu2e130WAAAxsZu.jpg_large_zpszkvobpv6.jpg 

We'll avoid the spoilers for those who haven't watched yet, but there's much to discuss.  From the seemingly nonstop mental, emotional and physical abuse from Dre and Suge Knight, to her grandmother's "advice," to making it to where she is today by mainly relying only on herself.  Music definitely gave Michel'le the will to live,  but it was also the window to her abuse.  Deep.

On another note, we are still trying to understand this "we were the Beyoncé and Jay Z of our time" statement that was made more than once.  Because girl....

Anywho, the movie was informative if nothing else.  But Dre still maintains he wants to sue. The movie's executive producer Leslie Greif told IndieWire:

“I heard Sony said they vetted the film and stand by it, and will not allow Michel’le’s voice to be silenced,” Greif told the site. “They’re supporting this picture … These are not new stories. Dr. Dre and Suge Knight have not seen the film to my knowledge, and are presupposing what they did and how it might make them appear on screen.”

Michel'le chimed in as well saying:

“This is no joke,” she said. “I would never want anyone to live this life. I’m watching myself, when I watched them portray me and Dr. Dre and it touched me in a different way … it was a very eye-opening experience. I didn’t see it that way [at the time]. I thought it was just normal for me.”

 

The first lady of Ruthless Records is now ready to share her story with the world in book form.  She revealed on Twitter last night that she's working on her story now.

[UPDATED] Some Crazy Ish Went Down & Azealia Banks Reportedly Got KICKED Out Of Russell Crowe’s Hotel Suite

It appears Azealia Banks was involved in some sort of altercation with Russell Crowe that resulted in him allegedly kicking her out of his hotel room. It’s quite bizarre. Get the deets inside…

[UPDATE]:

Now, it's being reported Azealia Banks trekked it to the Beverly Hill police department to file a battery report against Russell Crowe on Sunday afternoon. In the report, she claims Russell choked her, called her the n-word AND he allegedly spat on her. She demanded an apology from Russell, but he never offered it up. His rep recently spoke out to say Russell will NOT give her an apology because he did nothing wrong.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Well this is bizarre! But then again, almost anything can happen when it comes to rapper Azealia Banks.

Apparently, actor Russell Crowe invited about 10 friends to dinner and to listen to music at his Beverly Hills hotel on Saturday. Azealia was there with rapper RZA. We’re not exactly sure what set her off, other than another female guest telling her to fall back on her criticism of Russell's musical taste, but it’s being reported Azealia went into a rage where she threatened to stab folks in the throat on some Tarantino type ish. Sighs…

Her'se how the story goes:

According to eyewitness accounts the trouble started when Azealia laughed out loud at Russell's music selection, and then called him and at least one other guest, "boring white men." We're told a female guest jumped to Russell's defense and suggested Banks pipe down.

Instead, we're told she made an insane speech/threat to Crowe and the woman ..."You would love it if I broke my glass, stabbed you guys in the throat, and blood would squirt everywhere like some real Tarantino s***." Then for good measure, witnesses say she dropped a few n-bombs ... yet Crowe remained surprisingly calm.

We're told Azealia reached for her glass, cocked it back ... and that's when Russell had enough -- he grabbed her in a bear hug and carried her out of the suite. He then called hotel security guards who removed Azealia from the grounds.

Azealia posted a different version of events, claiming Crowe called her the n-word, choked her, threw her out and spit on her. We're told at least 4 of the guests/witnesses gave statements during the investigation, and all 4 used the word "erratic" to describe Azealia's behavior. For the record, we're told ... even RZA says she used the n-word, not Russell.

Chile….

RZA hasn't said anything about the incident on his social media accounts and Azealia's Twitter account has been suspended. Nope, no Twitter rants from her this time. She hasn't posted anything on Instagram other than a few selfies over the last few days.

IF this is true maybe Banks should consider getting some help. She’s known to make headlines over erratic behavior. Maybe it's time for an intervention or something. Girl, get your life!

Nicki Minaj RANTS About Insecure Men (And We ALL Cheer), “You N****s Want Brainless B*****s?” + Safaree & Meek Mill Fire Shots

Nicki Minaj went ALL THE WAY OFF during her performance at the TIDAL concert last night. She’s over these basic men who want an uneducated chick and she even threw a shot at Donald Trump’s wife Melania Trump. Peep her rant, plus the latest on Nicki's ex Safaree Samuels and her current boyfriend Meek Mill trading disses on social media inside...

Lately, Nicki Minaj has been spitting truth serum about society’s double standards and how women shouldn’t depend on a man for ish. And she isn’t finished.

Last night, the “Only” raptress hit the stage during Jay Z’s Tidal X:1015 concert in Brooklyn to run through her hits. But, chick took a moment to address some things she had on her chest. Mainly, insecure men who are scared of women with brains!

She began her expletive ridden rant,

“Cause you n*ggas are so f**king weak, y’all got the audacity to be intimidated by the bad motherf**king queen and get your motherf**king feelings hurt.”

The NYC rapper went on to give examples of successful men, such as President Barack Obama, who have strong, intelligent women by their side. Then, she took a jab at presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s wife Melania Trump. And she WENT there.

“But it’s O-motherf**king-K, because Barack needed a Michelle, b*tch, and Bill needed a motherf**king Hillary, b*tch. You better pray to God you don’t get stuck with a motherf**king Melania. You n*ggas want brainless b*tches? To stroke your motherf**king egos? Well, f**k you, n*ggas!”

Filthy mouth and all, sometimes you gotta let ‘em know! And it’s certainly coming from one of the most unlikeliest places.

After she “dragged” Melania, Nicki took to her Twitter to clarify her statements about Donald’s third wife. She responded to a fan in a tweet saying:

 

 

Facts.

 

While Nicki was schooling the kids, her boyfriend and ex-boyfriend were busy firing shots at each other on social media:

 photo safemeek.png

Another day, another "LAHH" storyline.

Seems like Nicki Minaj's ex-boyfriend Safaree Samuels is looking for a new storyline to stay on the VH1 reality show.

Yesterday, Safaree hopped on Twitter and posted up a picture of the "Anaconda" rapper basically saying he wanted to hit her up with the "Hey bighead" text. Maybe it was Nicki's see-through Margiela catsuit that she wore at the TIDAL concert that had him wishing he had that old thang back. Y'all know how dudes do when they see you looking good and then try to creep back into your life.

 

Well, Nicki's current boyfriend Meek Mill certainly saw his tweets and decided to poke fun at him on his SnapChat account. Ha!

Demetria McKinney has a new man, Eric Phillips, and all, but a new baby seemed a bit....quick.  So when she posted this baby bump on IG this morning, it had folks like 'Oh?!'

But it looks like she was just trolling.  Or, as actresses call it, doing it promotion.

In very tragic news, Olympic sprinter Tyson Gay’s 15-year-old daughter Trinity Gay was fatally shot in Kentucky over the weekend. Now, police have arrested three men in connection with her death. Get the updates on the tragic story inside….

 

Our hearts ache for any parent who has to deal with loosing a child. Unfortunately, Olympic sprinter Tyson Gay and his daughter’s mother Soshana Boyd are facing this horrific reality.

 photo tygay2.jpg

Tracj & Field star Tyson Gay’s 15-year-old daughter Trinity Gay was fatally shot in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant about 4AM on Sunday in her hometown of Lexington, Kentucky. She got caught in the crossfire of two vehicles firing bullets at one another.

According to police, the 15-year-old was transported by a private vehicle to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.

Due to quick police work, three men, including a father and son, have been charged in connection to her death and a homicide investigation is ongoing.

38-year-old Chazerae Taylor (father), 19-year-old D'markeo Taylor (son) and 21-year-old Dvonta Middlebrooks are the three men arrested. Chazerae and D’markeo have been charged with with wanton endangerment in connection with the shooting, while Dvonta has been charged with wanton endangerment and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Following in her father’s footsteps, Trinity attended Lafayette High School where she was a promising track competitor and a cheerleader. Her father, who competed at the Summer Olympic Games in Rio this year, won a silver medal at the 2012 London Games in the 4x100 meters relay run.

Tyson briefly spoke to the media early Monday morning in shock that his daughter is no longer here, saying, "She didn't make it. I'm so confused. She was just here last week for fall break. It's so crazy."

So tragic and unnecessary! We’re sending our condolences and prayers to Tyson, Trinity’s mother and their families during this tragic time.

It’s no surprise Chrissy is topless and showing it off for the masses. She has posed half naked in magazines before. But, for a friend’s birthday, she offered up a pic of her naked bod while strategically sitting behind her husband John Legend to cover her ASSets.

The “Lip Sync Battle” co-host posted up the scandalous photo with the caption,“HAPPY BIRTHDAY @MARISAMXO !!!!” And she’s not here for any of her followers’ negative comments since she turned off the comments on the pic. These two….

After showing it all off on the ‘Gram, John and Chrissy took Baby Luna out for a retail run in NYC:

Chrissy was in full mommy-mode as she carried Baby Luna in her arms with John following closely behind as they made their rounds, making a stop at Sephora. They had security on deck too to keep their precious cargo safe. Baby Luna is so adorbs!

Teyana Taylor strips it all off for PAPER magazine. Inside, she talks about balancing life as a mother, an artist and a soon-to-be wife, making it all look so damn easy. More inside…

Teyana Taylor is on everyone’s radar since she appeared in Kanye West’s “Fade” video that debuted at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards. Well, she has BEEN on our radar, everyone else is just playing catch up 

For her latest feature, the 25-year-old singer covers PAPER magazine’s newest issue, dubbed the "Living For Fashion" issue. And her spread is FIERCE! Chick strips down to her birthday suit in one of the shots, rocking a pair of her mentor's new boots from his Yeezy Season 4 collection and cropped red wiggery:

We see you Tey!

In the cover story, the R&B songstress opens up about how her career is taking off all while enjoying life as a mother and soon-to-be wife. Yes, it seems she has it all and she doesn’t show any signs of slowing down.

“You can be superwoman. You can have it all, that balance in your relationship, your family and your career," she told the magazine.“It's the opposite of the cliché that says kids will slow you or your career down."

We love her take on balance, although we're sure having a decade of experience in the industry as well as millions of dollars between a couple help make balancing a little easier for them than the everyday person.

Teyana credits her newfound stardom to her past struggles and learning to be patient after she was signed to Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music label four years ago.

"Being signed to his label for four years, and Kanye being like a big brother to me, he's seen everything that I've been through," she said. “He was like, 'It's so dope because y'all so young and y'all fresh, but then y'all got the baby and the championship.' I think that gave him the idea of wanting to see us all in the video together."

Teyana has her fair share of haters, but she won’t let them steal her joy.

"I never had the time to fail, to fall and get back up and try again," she said, “People would get up on me, like, 'You've been doing it for seven years now, you might as well give up."

She added,

"All you can do is keep shining. You can't say something and think my legs are going to stop, my voice is going to stop, my hunger is going to stop," she says. "I'll be hurt for five minutes, but I'm going to keep going hard."

On top of working on a new album and gearing up for her role in VH1’s new scripted series “The Breaks,” she’s also a mother to her baby girl Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr. (aka Baby Junie) who she calls her good luck charm. We're obsessed with Junie too!

"She's been our good luck charm," she said. “She's just been everything." She continues, "From the moment I got pregnant with her to the day she was born, it's been all positives, all greatness, all iconic."

With everything going on, she has found the perfect balance between being an artist, a mother and support for her fiancé Iman Shumpert, who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers (and won the 2016 championship).

"For me, a lot of stuff -- dropping albums, tours -- is in the summer and spring when his season is over," she spilled. "During winter time, I get to be more on his side, supporting him, and during the summer he supports me. So it's the perfect balance."

Sounds like she has it all figured out.

Nicki Minaj is still talkin’ that ish and she’s defending what she said about Kanye West’s “Gold Digger” lyric about black men leaving black women for white women once they become successful. She’s not back down. Find out what she said inside…

Nicki Minaj is making headlines over comments she made about lyrics in Kanye West’s “Gold Digger” track.

The Young Money rapper addressed Ye’s classic bars in her Marie Claire November 2016 cover story (out tomorrow) airing out her frustrations over being sick of black women feeling that black men will leave them for a white woman once they become successful.

She told the magazine,“It wasn’t funny when Kanye said, “When he get on, he’ll leave you’re a** for a white girl’- and Kanye happens to be with a white girl now. I’m so tired of black women feeling that when our men get rich, they’re going to leave them for a woman of a different race.”

Apparently, the quote was taken out of context, either by those posting or by the mag itself.

Folks started coming at Nicki for “slamming” Ye, but she’s clearing it up all of the controversy.

She tweeted,“I said he wasn’t kidding, he was speaking the TRUTH about d [the] industry. I was saying he’s the one who said it first. He doesn’t apologize for his choices. He tells the truth about stuff ppl don’t wanna hear!”

All facts. We all notice the trend...even Kanye himself.

Nick has been on a “tell-it-like-it-is” wave lately. During her performance at the TIDAL X:1015 concert last night, she went IN on “insecure n****s” who want “brainless b****s.” Catch up on that rant HERE.

Never too busy for a date with your loved one!

Will and Jada Pinkett Smith cleared their busy schedules for some alone time together. The Smiths kicked off their YBF weekend with a date to Soho house in Malibu.

Jada was the chauffeur for their chill outing. She was spotted behind the driver's seat as they pulled off from the venue after spending quality time together. Cute.

Both Jada and Will are currently filming new projects. Mrs. Smith has been shooting scenes with Queen Latifah and Regina Hall for Kenya Barris’ new film Girls Trip, directed by Malcolm D. Lee. Meanwhile, Mr. Smith is hard at work for a fantasy film titled Bright. Both projects are expected to hit theaters in 2017. 

Another couple keeping their relationship hot...

Former Spice Girl Mel B and her husband Stephan Belafonte did date night at new celeb hotspot Catch restaurant in West Hollywood. It’s definitely one of the “it” places to visit in L.A. these days, so the two hit the scene to see what it’s all about.

 photo melbs3.jpg

The tipsy in love couple hopped on social media to share coupledom shots from inside the venue. Stephen captioned, “With the love of my life my baby boo @officialmelb the only girl that means anything to me ever I would die for this amazing woman and she would die for me!! This is what's called ride or die!! #sorryguys #sexywife #babyboo #rideordie”

Sounds like they’re rocking it out until the wheels fall off, despite constant rumors of a break up.

A few weeks ago, Mel and Stephen stepped out to celebrate the grand opening of their restaurant Serafina’s on Sunset Blvd. Gotta get those coins as a team. Not mad.

NO SHAME IN HIS GAME: Mary J. Blige's Ex Kendu Isaacs Demands Six Figures In Spousal Support...PER MONTH!

This guy....

 

Can't say we didn't see this coming. Kendu Isaacs is demanding six figures a month from estranged wife Mary J. Blige as part of his spousal support.  He clearly doesn't give a damn about the prenup they did indeed have in place.  Deets inside....

As the divorce proceedings kick off in Mary J. Blige's case, her ex Martin "Kendu" Isaacs is doing the absolute most.  He filed papers in court demanding over $100K per month NOW while they "hash out the divorce."  Excuse me?!

Yep, you read that right. And his reasoning is quite the f**kboi explanation: He has grown accustomed to the rich lifestyle Mary, the breadwinner, afforded him.  TMZ reports:

Martin Isaacs filed for temporary spousal support, and according to the docs -- obtained by TMZ -- he thinks $129,319 per month is a nice, round number. His argument is simple -- Mary was the breadwinner during their 12-year marriage and got him used to their lavish lifestyle.

Martin says Mary earned anywhere from $1.5 to $5.1 million over the last 2 years. Remember, he used to be her manager ... and he points out she's currently on tour with an album about to drop. He, on the other hand, has zero income since Mary fired him shortly after she filed for divorce.

The fact he's had zero income since Mary fired him after she filed for divorce sounds like a personal problem.  Apparently, he's not here for updating his LinkedIn account and getting a job like the rest of the world.

So, where did he find the audacity to make this filing when there was, in fact, a prenup signed?  Kendu says the prenup should be tossed out since he signed it 12 years ago without a lawyer.  By the way, Mary cut him two checks recently totaling $85K. Kendu says that's proof she knows the prenup is bogus.

Should Kendu be entitled to about $130K/month of Mary's money to keep him comfy through this divorce?

Amber Rose's time on "Dancing With The Stars" has come to an end.  Find out what she had to say about getting voted off inside...

Amber Rose and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have danced their last dance.  The twosome went out with a Latin Night bang dancing the Cha Cha to "Bla Bla Bla Cha Cha Cha" by Petty Booka.  After receiving a score of 28, Amberony didn't have enough votes to keep them in the running for the Mirror Ball trophy, and they were eliminated.

The model/talk show host got emotional while chatting it up with E! after getting eliminated. She also posted this message for her fans:

Although our time was cut short @maksimc I'm so happy I had the chance to experience this with you! You truly are my brother for life! Who knew we would become so close in such a short amount of time? Thank you for not giving up on me and getting to know the real me with no judgment I'll love you forever for that reason and I'll always have ur back through whatever. I'll miss our stressed out rehearsals more then anything tho. Love Amberony

Her partner Maks wrote her a sweet message as well saying:

My dearest Amberony! Thank you for some of the best weeks of my @dancingabc career! You've not let me down and only made me more and more proud each week. You've become a friend and an older sister (although you're younger....you know what I mean :)), and this is definitely just the beginning of 'Amber and Maks'. This experience got cut short and I wish we would have just a few more weeks, but it happened exactly as it were meant to and I have absolutely no regrets. The world has yet to see what you can really do and I can't wait to be in your corner when it does.... Love, Me

 

Well, she'll always have her MuvaMojis, her talk show (if it gets renewed), her SlutWalk, her baby boy Sebastian and photoshoots like the one below to keep her busy:
