Adrienne Bailon has been partying away in Paris since landing there on Thursday from L.A. (pictured above). Her co-hosts from "The Real" arrived with her and have been right by her side since.

Adrienne is now officially Mrs. Houghton after marrying her Christian gospel artist fiancé Israel Houghton today (Friday) at 7p at the Shangri-La Hotel in Paris.

Adrienne and Israel had their rehearsal dinner (pictured above) at hot spot Ferdi last night.  It's where the newlyweds first met 10 years ago.  Sweet!

As for how Adrienne whipped this whole Parisian wedding together in a matter of three months, she tells E!:

"I got engaged in Paris and I had a flight home back to L.A.—it's a very long flight—I pretty much planned the whole wedding on the plane ride home, so I'm good!"

That...and the two swore to celibacy until marriage.

It sounds like wedding planning wasn't difficult either.  Adrienne tells E!:

"We agree on everything. That's weird," she joked of making their wedding day decisions. "He actually has better taste than me, so if I picked something else, I always go with him because he always has better taste."

 

Adrienne and Israel were spotted grinding on the dance floor during the rehearsal dinner:

 

Check out the gorgeous wedding dress the singer-actress will be sharing with the talk show audience on Monday:

 

Her baby niece's gown was beautiful too:

#TeamYBF thought it would be a good idea to record The YBF podcast during Natasha's election night party.  Listen now!

Now that we're finally able to say the word election without getting nauseous, we're ready to re-live the foolishness of election night.  Natasha reveals why "they" called the city on her after her fight at her polling location on Election Day.   She also chats with her friends about their feelings about the results as they come in, why we all might be richer than Trump, the ridiculously high number of Trump votes from women, how the outcome will personally affect their lives, issues with Hillary, issues with Trump, crazy voting day drama, and why even Beyoncé couldn't save us.  Everybody went IN.

We also chat about Prince Harry checking media for trolling his bi-racial girlfriend, celeb teen Reginae Carter checking adults over her daddy and more.  

When drinks are involved, ish gets REAL.  Really real.

Louis Stevens...is that you?! Not only did actor Shia LeBeouf roll to Shade 45 yesterday to chop it up with Sway Calloway about his love for hip hop, the Transformers star came through to drop some bars. And it shocked EVERYBODY.  Listen inside...

His love for hip hop started with Wreckx-N-Effect, then All Eyez on Me, then break dancing and being able to kill Yo Mama books and snaps. He said that's when rap became his language and it's how he met all of his friends with it being the background of his life. He's a hardcore hip hop head, from indulging in The Pharcyde to RZA to Timbaland and Magoo, Kanye and DJ Premier being his fave producers. And he hit up Sway because it's his dream to do Sway's 5 Fingers of Death freestyle.

His California neighborhood was heavily Latino so he spent his days having a diverse group of friends just looking for a way out, and that's where acting in Hollywood came in. But hip hop was his first love.

So it's only right he attempted the 5 Fingers of Death. Crazy enough, he didn't disappoint. And he's got more bars than some new rappers in the game right now. Yeah, we said it.

Check it:

The freestyle starts at 29:00, he also talks about his father being a drug dealer and the crazy drama he's been through in Hollywood. Oswin Benjamin killed it too.

For Alicia Keys' new album Here, she's on a musical journey to spread love.  Apparently, that means making nice with her husband's ex-wife Mashonda Tifrere.  They got off to a rocky start as Mashonda (and everyone else) made it known Swizz Beatz and Alicia's relationship started out of an affair.  But a few kids and several years later, they've let bygones be bygones.  It's all love.

Swizz posted:

Growth , Love, understanding & Blessings #Loveoverhate ! Many people love the Drama but get very low key when things get Positive ! That's why you must not give them the energy or time of day and just focus on what's best for your life & Fam Blessings to all the blended families

 

 photo Screen Shot 2016-11-12 at 4.52.27 PM_zps1uwgwgsi.png

Mashonda posted about the video saying:

Kings and Queens unite along this journey called life! Step away from your fears, let love shine its light. For it takes a village to raise these children up right. Embrace what is real, don't ever lose sight. #love #gratitude #blend #blendedfamily #blendproject17

I know some don't understand how this magic happened. You soon will.

Omarion and his ex Apryl S. Jones are going at it, all thanks to his latest song.  Get it all inside...

Omarion dropped his new song "It's Whatever," and he talks slick about his new life all while throwing in his ex and baby's mother Apryl.

He says:

I been only single 4 months, I'm just trying to get my swag back, probably catch a few kids, it's like I never left I'm right back

...Torn apart catch me I'm on the run, Told my BM she could have that. Put that on my daughter and my son, every night I'm having flashbacks. So it's probably wise that... you don't cross the line, f*ck your glass of wine

It's whatever.

He posted about the song and his upcoming new project Reasons saying:

As we close out the year I wanted to take some time to thank every fan that's ever supported me, & followed my journey since day one. You all are the reason for everything! & without your support we're nothing. There's so many REASONS why I'm here today. There's so many reasons why I still do music. There's so many reasons why they counted me out but none the less I'm still here.....chillin. This is my experience from age 14 to 30. I'm excited to announce that I'll be dropping a new project early next year titled "Reasons" & Iam confident that it will be well received like all my previous work. Up to date you guys made my 2015 smash "Post to be" ft Chris brown & Jhene Aiko 3 X platinum!! & for that Im grateful. I've grown in so many ways & this is reflected in my music. I can't wait to share it with you all. Usually on 11/12 I gift you all with the "Care package". But because I've been focusing on preparing a full body of work for you. The mixtape shop is closed. But since it's my birthday I can do what I want. So... "It's whatever"

Apparently, folks thought Omarion was trying to call Apryl a gold digger.  And about that wine comment -- she's always talking about her love for wine so it did seem like a direct slight.

She retweeted the shade thrown her way:

All hail the comedy king!  Dave Chappelle did the impossible and made us laugh again.  Get the 6 funniest sketches from his "SNL" debut last night inside...

From the N-bombs to the unapologetic blackness and realness about the current state of America, "SNL" host Dave Chappelle had pretty much everybody cracking up last night.  He was in classic form, and even broke out a few of his classic characters for his Walking Dead sketch.

While some folks were in their feelings and BIG MAD about his realness, it overall was one of the best episodes ever.

Here's our 6 fave sketches featuring Chris Rock (election night), a grown a** man being breastfed (football party), that epic monologue and more:

 

 

 

The full episode, including A Tribe Called Quest's performances, is below:

Prince's Estate Shoots Down Jay Z's Bid To Buy Catalog + 'THEY' Are Mad At Dave Chappelle & Those Too Real 'SNL' Sketches

Prince's estate is not here for Jay Z right now.  And they're making it known by turning down his $40 million offer.  Deets inside, plus some folks are mad at Dave Chappelle& "SNL" for those skits last night....

After Jay Z put in a $40M bid to the Prince estate for his unreleased recordings, we've learned the estate shot down the offer.  They're not here for Jay Z...or Tidal.

According to TMZ, the Estate told Hov they have no interest in Roc Nation exploiting Prince's music:

"...the estate fired off a letter to Jay's team last month, saying it had no interest in signing a deal for "Roc Nation to exploit any of the intellectual property assets of the Estate."

Sheesh.  Looks like Jay won't be getting his hands on Prince's catalog anytime soon.

And that's not all.  The estate is pissed at Jay and Tidal for streaming 15 Prince albums immediately after his death and without their authorization.

While Prince was a part of the Tidal deal, Tidal allegedly only had permission to release The Purple One's 2015 final album, "HitNRun Phase One."  The estate says they don't even see the $750K payment for that.

Sounds like someone is about to start firing off a lawsuit or two...

After Dave Chappelle's epic hosting gig on "SNL" last night, not everyone is singing his praises.  No shocker there, Dave was never one to pander to an audience in a P.C. way.

Folks took to the "SNL" comment section on Instagram to sound off.  THEY are in their feelings chile:

Idris Elba was seen leaving his trailer in his suit as he headed to the set of 'Molly's Game' which just began filming in Toronto.  He's been working like crazy lately, so that Starbucks he's holding is probably a much needed caffeine boost.

He hopped into a waiting SUV for a short ride to the set location in the interior of an office building. 'Dris is starring in the upcoming Hollywood blockbuster, nabbing top billing opposite stars Jessica Chastain and Kevin Costner

The Aaron Sorkin directed film is based on the memoir of the real life Molly Bloom, a young skier and former Olympic hopeful who became a successful entrepreneur (and target of an FBI investigation) when she establishes a high-stakes, international poker game.

While the movie isn't set to hit theaters until 2017, Idris is simultaneously working on a new tv mini series "Guerrilla" that also won't drop until next year. 

He's got top billing there too as lead character "Kent", and he's shooting back home in the UK.  That series is based on a pair of activists in 1970s London set out to free a political prisoner and wage a resistance movement.

The Star Trek Beyond star also will star oppositeMatthew McConaughey in the western The Dark Tower in July 2017, aongside Chris Hemsworth in Thor: Ragnarok next November, and with Kate Winslet in The Mountain Between Us next October.

Dave Chappelle Delivers EPIC Season High Ratings With 'SNL' Debut

Dave Chappelle just pulled off a record setting 'SNL' stint, and we're not surprised. Trump, Loren Michaels and everyone else who benefited from Saturday's 'SNL' episode -- namely that epic monologue that likely caused way more people to consider giving Trump a chance -- should clap for that man. Deets inside...

Dave Chappelle is still the man.  As Saturday's hilarious host, he raked in the season's highest ratings for "SNL," a whopping 6.2M (million) Live+same day household rating.  This is up from last week's 5.8M rating and the Tom Hanks-hosted Oct. 22nd rating of 6.1M.

The comedian also raked in epic ratings in the top demo -- the "young" 18-49 year olds. Around 2.9M people in that demo raced to their tv's to see Chappelle’s TV return. It was the highest 18-49 demo "SNL" rating since Dec. 21, 2013 when co-host Jimmy Fallon and singer Justin Timberlake (who had 3.9M in the demo) were at the helm.

Dave brought back some of his classic characters, Chris Rock, and that unapologetic, risque truth serum we all know and love from "Chappelle Show."  And clearly, it worked.

Before signing off on Saturday, he thanks "Saturday Night Live" for helping him to cross something off his bucket list -- hosting the legendary show.

Relive the Top 5 moments from this weekend's record setting episode HERE.

Lenny Kravitz, Naomi Campbell, A Tribe Called Quest& Dave had every reason to be lit backstage and at the afterparty:

Wait, ANOTHER woman has agreed to marry Apollo Nida and is carrying on a relationship with him while he's incarcerated?  We guess this chick didn't learn from Phaedra Parks.

 

Deets inside on Apollo's new fiancé....

Some men, no matter where they are in life, have zero issues getting women.  Women with good jobs, good salaries and good minds (we thought).  Apollo Nida is one of those men.

As he serves another prison stint for the latest con-artist trickery and wizardry he pulled, Apollo Nida is an engaged man again.

According to TMZ, Apollo met the "mystery woman" two years ago before he got locked up for the second time.  They reportedly just got engaged two months ago, without a ring since the federal prison isn't here for the inmates handing out diamonds.

The fiancé has filmed scenes for this season of "RHOA," but not with Apollo.  Apparently they will be doing what inmates and their significant others do and that's chat on the phone.  She did not film with Apollo's ex-wife Phaedra. Producers are apparently trying to keep her identity a secret until the episode airs.

As for who she is -- we've been tipped off to her alleged identity and we'll reveal soon after triple confirmation.  She now lives in New Jersey and visits his nearby federal prison (same prison where 'RHONJ' star Teresa Giudice's husband is) twice a week.  Allegedly, she's a real estate agent who WAS based in Atlanta (she may have moved to Jersey to be closer to him) and she has a daughter.

Apollo is already referencing her on his Instagram as his "queen."

Well look who it is! Gary "Big G" Glenn from the hit 90s boy band Silk is out and about singing in these streets. Peep the video clip inside…

There’s a meeting at the airport!

We love a good throwback around these parts. Remember Gary "Big G" Glenn from R&B singing group Silk?  The R&B group brought us several hits, including "Meeting In My Bedroom," "Freak Me," and "If You (Lovin' Me)."

Well, a fan (@jasvocals) ran into Big G at the airport and she just had to get in a mini singing session with the R&B legend. And he was all for it. 

Check it:

Ha!

If you haven’t heard, Silk came out with a new album earlier this year after a ten-year hiatus.  It's called Quiet Storm and you can check it out on iTunes.

Drake and 21 Savage just released the video treatment to “Sneakin’.” Peep the new clip and get the latest on Lil Wayne possibly signing to Jay Z’s record label when you go inside…. 

Taking it back!

Drake just unveiled his new visuals for his track “Sneakin’,” featuring 21 Savage. And the video treatment serves up total 90s vibes.

The Young Money rapper whipped out the old school video recorder for the grainy clip that makes you feel like you’re watching a b-side hip hop video from back in the day. Decked out in a fur coat, Drizzy shows off his massive “D” medallion while showing off his luxury whips. Oh, and there’s plenty of “cake” thrown in for good measure.

Check it:

“Sneakin’” is featured on Drake’s project More Life that’s expected to drop next month.

In other Young Money/Cash Money news… 

 

Over the weekend, Wayne hit the stage at Camp Flog Gnaw festival in L.A.’s Exposition Park.

So here are the hints he’s dropping. During a performance of his track “I’m Me” he started throwing up the Roc-A-Fella sign. Then, as he wrapped up his performance he changed the lyrics and said “I’m a motherf*cking Roc-A-Fella millionaire.” Peep the clip above.

Oh? Does that mean he’s no longer a Cash Money millionaire? We’re not exactly sure. But Wayne seems to be sending out subliminals about a Jay Z deal.

And this isn’t the first time Wayne commented on inking a deal with Hov. Last year, Wayne announced he signed a deal with Jay Z but he was referring to signing a deal with TIDAL.

Time will tell…

Some folks aren’t here for Wanda Sykes’ anti-Trump talk. She has two words for them, “f*ck you!” Peep the clip of Wanda going off on hecklers, plus details on Octavia Spencer playing Madam C.J. Walker inside….

Comedienne Wanda Sykes isn’t here for president-elect Donald Trump or his supporters.

Over the weekend, Wanda hit the stage at the 22nd annual Comics Come Home fundraiser at Boston’s TD Garden arena for a comedy routine. Like most comedians, Wanda started talking about real life events and went on a rant about Trump. She called him a racist, a sexist and a homophobe.

“I am certain this is not the first time we’ve elected a racist, sexist, homophobic president,” Wanda said. “He ain’t the first one. He’s just the first confirmed one.”

Welp…

That comment turned some folks (Trump supporters) off and they began to BOO her. Her response?

“F*ck you, motherf*ckers. F*ck all y’all. F*ck all y’all.”

Savage!

She continued,

“The evidence is there. How can you say he is not racist? ‘Grab them by the p***y’? How can you say he’s not sexist? How can you say he’s not racist? How can you say he’s not homophobic?”

She told no lies.

Peep the clip below:
 

 

Meanwhile on Twitter, Wanda has been busy reposting articles that back up how she feels about Trump. We're not mad.  

On a lighter note... 

Actress Octavia Spencer is gearing up to star as Madam C.J. Walker in a new limited series about her life based on A’Lelia Bundles’ bestselling biography "On Her Own Ground."

Not only will she star as Madam C.J. Walker, the Oscar winner will also produce the limited series about the iconic haircare pioneer. Yep, this is the woman we CAN thank for creating the magical black hair care products we still use today in different forms.

The script will be written by Nicole Asher (Coco) and it will be directed by Kasi Lemmons (“Shots Fired”). The new series will be shopped around to different networks in the near future.

According to Deadline, "On Her Own Ground" is described as the definitive biography of Walker, written by her great-great-granddaughter A’Lelia Bundles.

The daughter of slaves, Walker was orphaned at 7, married at 14 and widowed at 20. She spent the better part of the next two decades laboring as a washerwoman for $1.50 a week. Then, she created her hair company and became one of the richest black people in the country before she passed away in 1919. #BlackGirlMagic!

We’ll keep you updated on any new developments about this project.
