I really don’t have any news to report. I came across these photos of Devonte from Jodeci fame, and Dennis Rodman. The photos speak for themselves and that’s why they made the crackhead news.

I know you have heard the news by now, but if not Usher and Tameka are having a boy. I am very happy, now it doesn’t matter which one of his parents the child looks like (Some of you may have gotten the very subtle joke). I imagine he will be very handsome. Anyway, Tameka craves ice during the pregnancy, and Usher just hopes for a healthy energetic baby. Here is a recent picture of the bun in the oven. She looks more than five months, she’s awfully round, but that makes since considering she’s pregnant with her fourth child.

Jennifer started filming her new role on the set of Sex and The City, the movie. Jennifer Hudson is playing the part of Louise, an assistant to Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker). Now that Jennifer Hudson is in the movie, I am excited. This movie should have been made five or so years, ago, but better late than never.

Karrine Steffans is back with her much anticipated, The Vixen Diaries, a follow-up to her best selling book, Confessions of a Video Vixen. The NY Daily News describes the book as a self-help manual, “Having sold more than 350,000 copies, she’s back with The Vixen Diaries. Though its tilted toward self-help (and self-aggrandizement), her new book has a few good servings of celebrity tenderloin.”
Jamie Foxx told her, “Damn, you’re pretty!” when they met. “When Jamie Foxx offers to massage your body at four in the morning, after a bottle of Champagne and two shots of Patron, it’s hard to say no,” she writes. However, Jamie soon figured out she was “that Karrine.” Foxx ran in the other direction, leaving the author “depressed. Jamie had no idea that he made me cry all the way home and in the days that followed.”
Comic Bill Maher delivered her greatest heartache. “In January of 2006, Bill and I split. Three days later, I suffered an emotional breakdown and was sent to the hospital for psychiatric observation. I cut my wrists and started drinking myself into an emotional tailspin. At the end of the night, the love of my life was gone and so was my son, Naiim,” taken away by Child Services.
She denounces those vicious rumors that she came between Eric Benet and Halle Berry, and Chris and Malaak Rock. She also maintains she didn’t have sex with Whitney Houston’s husband, Bobby Brown, though she says, “I kept Bobby close to my heart.” Meeting after a time apart, “he embraced me as I whispered, ‘I love you,’ and he returned, ‘I love you, too.’” But she says Brown later told “me I had done nothing for him, while he was sleeping in my home, eating my food, driving my car and spending my money.” After a tryst with Ray J, she told Brown that the rapper claimed he’d added Whitney’s name to his bedpost. “I could hardly wait to get the news out, to tear [Bobby's] heart apart and hurt him the way he hurt me, I wanted him to go to bed that night with the image of his wife with another man.”

Usher launched his new fragrance, but more importantly, Usher and Momma Usher were seen together for the first time in a long time. Coincidentally, Tameka Foster wasn’t in any of the pictures, so my guess is she wasn’t present. My heart runneth over, there’s nothing like the love between a mother and son. Side note: Beyonce hair color is growing on me, or maybe she has a better hairstyle. Nelly is looking better these days.
Update: Tameka Foster was there, she just showed up two hours late.

Can you guess which star left the house with her tracks showing?
Hint: Yesterday she was blonde.
It’s Britney, you know the rest. Are those wrinkles, too? Is she wearing gauze? What’s really going on? She’s starting to look like Whitney Houston back when crack was whack. If you weren’t worried before, now you should be.

Alicia Keys has been looking amazing these days. I don’t know if shehas a new stylist, but there is definitely an improvement. She has always been a beautiful girl with a beautiful spirit, but now she seems to glow. Check out her new video in the post below:

I guess after getting a little bit of money in her pocket ($100 Million), Whitney Houston decides to come out of hiding to celebrate. Whitney was seen having lunch with music executive, Clive Davis, at Nobu in New York.

Mary Louise Parker joins the crusade to save an African. I shouldn’t be so cynical, what’s wrong with celebrities adopting children of third world countries as if they were the new accessories of the season. I should look at the bottom line, and see the wonderful things these celebrities are doing. Maybe I don’t have a problem with white celebrities adopting children of color, maybe I have a problem with black celebrities not adopting any. I know there are kids here that need a home, too, but why do black celebrities shy away from adopting African children. Or maybe I’m just upset because I can’t find out what country this child is from. It just says Africa, like it’s one big country or something. Overall I think it’s a good thing, I just question the motives behind the trend. We’ll see how it works out in 10 years or so, when Mommy Dearest the sequel is made.

Melissa Ford is revealing her body once again for Black Men Magazine. I really don’t understand the video girl “modeling”, maybe in my younger years I could, but after a certain age don’t you move past that. Is it just another avenue to make easy money, or do some women like being objectified? Anyway here are some of the more conservative pictures from the spread, trust me there aren’t many.

Lisa Raye knows how to throw a party, and for her 40th she brought the funk to Beverly Hills. Eurweb describes the Studio 40 party as non-stop dancing with plenty of fun:
Duane Martin and Tisha Campbell Martin emceed the star-studded affair which included “old school” entertainment from Evelyn “Champagne” King and The Whispers. Both acts did not disappoint. They sang and sweated, we danced and sweated.
Let’s just say this was one of those parties where, if you came to get wet from sweat, you were in the place to be. It was definitely on and popping. After the live music portion and the Happy Birthday greetings, the DJ and hype man took over spinning serious hardcore old school funk.
Needless to say it was at that point that the beautiful birthday gal herself took over the dance floor and handled her business to the with the bad boy himself, Bobby Brown, while her husband, the honorable Michael Misick looked on with approval and appreciation. We might also add that LisaRaye is one incredible boogie woman.

Mariah Carey was spotted in Manhattan hanging out with friends at three in the morning. She looks nice, and this is the most clothes I’ve seen her with since she left Tommy Mottola.

Pregnancy looks great on some people, and Nicole Richie is definitely one of those. Here are some candids of Nicole Richie in Hawaii trying to have a private moment on the beach.

Checkout Naomi Campbell doing her thing on the catwalk. During the Milan Fashion Week, Naomi was seen rocking a bikini from the Miss Bikini Spring 2008 line. She is the one of the oldest working models and for obvious reasons. First things first, this is the body of a woman who is three years shy of 40. Yes, Naomi Campbell is 37 years old.

Jay-Z and Beyonce were spotted in Soho walking th streets of New York. I couldn’t decide if I liked the hair color or not because something always seemed off. First off, Beyonce seems shy and reserved with the new hair, so maybe Sasha rocks the blond and Beyonce wears the black. The second thing is the hairstyles, the wigs haven’t been on straight. So now I decided…I love the color it makes her face look younger, but I hate the wig choices.

UPDATE: One of the blog readers was at this event and had this to say, “just wanted to let you know that I was at this party, it was a blast…but Gabby and Hill are NOT dating…they weren’t kissing either…Yes, they did come and leave together and were holding hands only because there were tons of people in the way.”
Just two weeks ago there were pictures all over the net of Gabrielle Union and Ludacris looking very cozy, and now we have pictures of Gabrielle and Hill Harper looking just as cozy. Gabrielle Union is one of my favorite actress, mainly because she stayed out of lime light, and carried herself in a classy manner. Lately, she’s beginning to look more like Paris Hilton. Maybe she’s just enjoying the single life, or maybe she’s on her way to having a reputation that will be hard to shake down.

Whitney Houston reportedly has just inked a $100 million deal with longtime label Arista Records for a string of new albums. “I am so excited with this new deal and I’m looking forward to going into the studio,” the singer said in a statement. Meanwhile, R&B bad boy Akon has been working on songs for Whitney’s next release, which he predicts will be “one of the biggest albums she decided to put out.” [Source]
