After sharing the first look at her little bundle of joy, Lil Kim is now showing off her post-baby bod for the first time. On Saturday, the Brooklyn raptress hung out backstage at Beyonce and Jay Z’s “On The Run” tour stop at the MetLife Stadium, where she caught up with her girls Yandy Smith and Kimbella.
Lil Kim (who gave birth to her daughter Royal Reign on June 9th) had a girls' night out with The Carters to celebrate her birthday. Kimmy turned 40-years-young on July 11th. Whatever she is doing sure whipped her back into shape...fast!
Kimmy also caught up with Beyonce’s twin dancers Les Twins backstage for a photo-op. Fun times.
And in other Brooklyn news....
While most middle school children are enjoying their summer going swimming, riding their bikes and staying up late night talking on the phone, three middle schoolers from Brooklyn are traveling the nation entertaining people with their musical talents.
13-year-old guitarist Malcolm Brickhouse, 13-year-old bassist Alec Atkins and 12-year-old drummer Jarad Dawkins have formed the heavy metal band called “Unlocking the Truth.” And they have reportedly inked a $1.7 million deal with Sony.
“The record deal is awesome,” Jarad told ABC News. “This is something we always wanted."
Before the deal, the threesome would hit the streets playing their music in NYC, which could make them on average $1,600 a day! They have already starred in commercials for “Beats by Dre” and a Cole Haan Christmas ad.
“It’s just fun. It’s exciting, and if I listen to the lyrics in metal, they just touch me,” Malcolm said. “I don’t like hip-hop because they don’t talk about anything important.”
“They say, ‘oh I saw your commercial, you’re so cool. That’s Mr. rock star, you don’t know me anymore, Mr. rock star,’” said Alec, laughing.
Nice.
