Solange performed in Manchester, TN yesterday for the 2009 Bonnaroo Music And Arts Festival.
Kanye hit up his 2nd annual Stay In School Benefit Concert in Chicago last night. He even performed for Chicago students who had perfect attendance.
Star and friend Raven Simone even showed up to the event to show her support for the cause.
In a rare appearance, Janet Jackson is seen arriving in London at Heathrow Airport.
Janet even attended a charity at the MCM event. She was also spotted with Prince Azim of Brunei at the same event.
Mariah was spotted checking into the Dorchester Hotel in London this morning. The singer seemed to have been in a great mood signing autographs and chatting with paps.
It’s Friday, and I’m a little slow on the post today. I know everyone wants to see Tameka Raymond out and about with Usher V and sons at the Imagine That Screening.
I’m not making any new post on Usher and Tameka’s relationship until they release an official statement. I have updated past posts with the news (so do a search), but until Usher says it’s over, I am leaving it alone because at the end of the day he can change his mind.
My problem was with Tameka was using bloggers for publicity, not with her marriage to Usher. Why do bloggers cross the line? Simple: for the publicity and money. If someone crossed the line into my marriage, I would probably cut ‘em. (J/K ..I think) I do not want to be known for bashing or crossing the line of professionalism. I will report the news and give my opinion, but not attack.
Usher V is just cutest thing, and so are all the boys.

Some how everyone knew these two kids would be at the same NBA Finals Game at the same time before they even appeared at the game. I am going to go a step further and call a foul on the play for two reasons.
First reason: We already know a publicist or PR person leaked the information, so that’s a gimmie. In this business if it seems suspect, I have learned that it probably is.
Second reason: Chris Brown attended the NBA eastern conference, where we saw a picture of him with Usher, and Chris Brown also attended Game 4 of that eastern conference where we saw pictures of him with Bow Wow. Then Rihanna decides she wants to go to a game, too. My question is why did Rihanna feel the need to go to the finals? Is she that big of a basketball fan? Didn’t she know Chris Brown was going to be there? I don’t like games, and I’m not talking about basketball, either, and this here is what men call silly games. If you are a woman then you know what I’m talking about…
Now look at Rihanna in the picture above looking miserable (taken during Game 4 of the finals) , compared to the other night pictured below. I don’t think it was worth it…
If you can’t see anything else, this young lady definitely has a presence and has developed her style. Rihanna looks amazing in just a simple cardigan, I’m not even sure it’s a dress, as she step out last night to enjoy some Black Eye Peas music. Chris Brown acting hard, and he know he miss this. You can tell it when a man has to fake it just to make it.
What is going on with Irv Gotti and The Inc. these days. Weeks ago Irv did an interview with MTV where he stated he would release Ashanti from the label because their relationship isn’t the same anymore. Now, Lloyd, another artist on the label is parting ways with his one time mentor.
R&B singer LLOYD has parted ways with his longtime record label The Inc.- just a month after ASHANTI walked out of her contract at the music firm.Ashanti left the label, run by music mogul Irv Gotti, in May (09) after years of reportedly frosty relations with The Inc. bosses.And Lloyd has now followed her out the door after releasing three albums with the company – but insists the split was amicable.He tells AllHipHop.com, “I’m ready for a change. There’s no bad blood. I just feel I need to take more control over my career and get a fresh start. Hopefully Irv can understand my position.”Lloyd’s manager, Henry ‘Noonie’ Lee, adds: “Even though Lloyd is appreciative of the opportunity that has been afforded him by The Inc, he feels it’s time for him to move on and seek opportunities that will allow him to build and enhance his brand.” {Source}
According to R&B singer Cassie, she’s discovered the culprits who leaked her semi-nude pics weeks ago. His name is Gmail! (as in Google)…

Now whay would the people over at gmail care about leaking nude pics of Cassie? In the same interview she admits to sending those nude photos to her significant other, I wonder who that could be.

Queen Latifah opens up in the latest issue of Essence magazine, revealing her childhood demons about being abused and her fear of commitment.
Of the traumatic experience, Latifah tells that she was violated by a teenage babysitter, saying, “He violated me. I never told anybody. I just buried it as deeply as I could and kept people at an arms length. I never really let a person get too close to me.”
She also admits that, because of the abuse, she’s since struggled with commitment. “I could have been married years ago, but I had a commitment issue.”
You can pick up the issue at a local news stand.
