If You Do One Thing This Weekend….

...watch this movie.

Seriously that's what cold winter weekends were made for anyway!!

If you haven't heard of Princesse Tam-Tam before, it's a B&W French film from 1935 featuring the Josephine Baker as Princess Tam-Tam. A french novelist is disgusted with the society life of his wife and her friends so he sets out to Africa to escape from it all. There he meets Alwina (Baker), whom he disguises as a Princess and brings back to Paris to spite his wife who is currently romancing with a Maharaja (obviously this is not an example of an ideal marriage).

If you've seen the film than you already know, and if you haven't you must!

*You will not be able to forget the image of her glittering eyes and jewels in the scene above - she captivates like none other.

Find Out What Mary J. Blige Thinks About The Lil Kim/Nicki Minaj Beef

Mary J. Blige recently visited the Big Boi's "Morning Riot" show on WGCI. While there, Big Boi wasted no time in asking Mary J. Blige about her thoughts on the whole Lil Kim vs. Nicki Minaj situation. I hate to call it beef because unless someone is licking shots at you, it really isn't beef, but let's proceed.

I feel Mary J. Blige has taken the stance that most of us mature adults have taken and that is that the two ladies need to stop all the bullshit and start making some great, classical music together! But hey, that's just me! I would kill to hear Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj on the same song together, but I'm not soo sure Kim is up for the task. So until that time comes, you can check out what Mary J. Blige had to say about the rift when you click on the "Read More" button below:

HHGS Sneak Peek: Love & Hip Hop (Episode 5)

This past Monday, Vh1 left many fans irate as hell behind a repeat showing of season 2's very first episode of "Love & Hip Hop". I know I can say that my crazy behind actually watched the rerun in hopes of the newest episode possibly being played at 9pm, but instead was left with T.I. and Tiny's "A Family Hustle" episode. Now I'm not taking anything away from T.I. or Tiny, but I was in need of my "Love & Hip Hop" fix.

Well, I will be irate no more as Vh1 has released a sneak peek trailer into next week's episode of "Love & Hip Hop". In the sneak peek trailer you will find that Olivia seems to be taking sides with Kimbella, Chrissy and Mama Jones are trying their best to get along for the sake of Jim Jones, Kimbella is still looking for her apology and Emily will be going out on a blind date!!

New Season Of "Mob Wives" Super Trailer

Well, well, well. I've just got my hands on the super trailer for season 2 of Vh1's "Mob Wives" and I will tell you that from the looks of the trailer, last season's fight doesn't have anything on what's about to go down during the new season!

It looks as if Drita and Karen are still very much at odds and it seems Karen is going to take things a step further by calling out Carla and asking her to stand up and fight her!! There's also a huge fight in the trailer, but since there's soo much hair flying I can't tell who's doing the fighting. I'm not sure if Karen was fighting Renee or Drita or everybody. Make a long story short, the trailer is a must see and you can check it out when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Timbaland Admits To Being In Love With Aaliyah!!!

Timbaland recently admitted to THS (True Hollywood Stories) that he was in love with Aaliyah. And I'm not talking about a brother and sisterly love. I'm talking about the kind of love that couples share. Now, if Aaliyah ever knew that Timbaland had these feelings for her is unknown, but whatever the case is, it seemed that Timbaland struggled with his feelings and kept them hidden.

Unlike R. Kelly, Timbaland refused to let his feelings for a minor get in the way of what the reality was. And that reality was is if he acted on any of his feelings, there was a high probability he would be going to jail or face some type of harsh backlash.....just like R. Kelly had faced.

The full Timbaland interview will premiere on Tuesday, December 20th at 9pm only on the E! channel. However, you can catch a quick snippet of the THS interview with Timbaland when you click on the "Read More" button below:





Wowzers! I'm wondering how the music industry will feel about Timbaland expressing his love for Aaliyah now? Feel free to leave your thoughts on this! I'm listening!

HHGS Rumor: Is Vanessa Divorcing Kobe Because of A Secret Love Child?

While the world is thinking that Kobe Bryant has once again cheated on Vanessa, I'm hearing that that is not the only case at hand in regards to their pending divorce. In fact, word on the internet curb is that there is a secret love child involved and that is the straw that broke the camel's back with Vanessa.

If you have no idea of what I'm talking about then let me help you. Shall I? Do you remember when Kobe was filmed some time ago getting served papers while heading to the Lakers lockerroom? Well, if you don't remember that footage then click on the "Read More" button below to get familiar:







Word is those papers Kobe was handed were paternity papers. The rumor also "alleges" that Kobe was paying the chick who had his baby to live in Italy. Unfortunately, the woman decided that Italy wasn't for her and decided to move back to the states and is now seeking support. This is "allegedly" why Vanessa is seeking a divorce from Kobe, but you didn't hear that from me! ;-)

Donnie Klang had won the "Making The Band" season 4 competition along with Que, and the rest of the Day 26 group. The only difference is Donnie was offered his own solo deal. He came out with an album titled "Just A Rolling Stone" back in 2008 and since then we haven't heard from him.

That is until now! Donnie Klang has released a Christmas single titled "X-Miss" and the video was directed by my husband, James "Kraze" Billings. So take a look at the new video when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Erica Mena Has Anger Issues!!!

On last nights episode of Vh1's "Love & Hip Hop", we all got introduced to new castmember, Erica Mena. She was introduced to the world when she took a meeting with Yandy to discuss possible business ventures. However, things took a turn when Erica Mena started badmouthing Kimbella without actually knowing her. You can tell that Yandy was surprised with all the hate that was coming from Erica, but yet in still, Yandy thought it would be a good idea to introduce Erica to Kimbella. (I'm giving the serious side eye to Yandy for not knowing that was a bad idea!)

Anywho, as we all saw last night, Erica Mena started in with Kimbella and it turned really ugly really fast. In fact, the altercation left Erica with a gashed eye so if you missed out on last nights fight, you can check it out when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Well, this isn't the first fight Erica Mena has had as she was even filmed fighting with her baby daddy in the streets! Many were wondering who Erica's baby daddy was and his name is Raul of Terror Squad. You can check out Erica's fight with him below:





Two things for certain, one things for sure....Erica Mena likes fighting and is filled with a lot of hate and she damn sure likes asking for phones! I'm just going to give a ton of props to Raul for not even trying to knock the bitch out. It could've gotten real ugly had it been any other dude! #REALTALK! What are your thoughts? I'm listening!

Lebron James has finally made his longtime girlfriend, Savannah Brinson an honest woman!

It must be really nice that a dude is thinking of his main squeeze on a day that's reserved for him! ;-) Lucky girl!

Wendy Williams Goes In On Fantasia!!!!

Friend in my head, Wendy Williams, recently touched upon the rumors that are swirling around on the internet in regards to Fantasia Barrino wanting her newborn sons father, Antwaun Cook, to step up to the plate and be more available to her and their new baby. And in good ole fashioned Wendy Williams style, Wendy drops jewels as well as her own personal opinion on the subject. Check out a few jewels Wendy dropped below:

“Fantasia you knew he was married and unavailable to you when you started sleeping with him. I don’t know whether it was a broken condom or maybe you miscounted the days if you happen to take a pill…but you had control over this entire situation.”


“As a wife, and I always root for the wife, you were dead wrong for this one Fantasia. Fantasia you haven’t sung in ages. You’ve got a family that blood sucks financially off of you and you weren’t in a position to have another child, especially with a married man who already has two kids that works at the T-Mobile store. He’s not going to marry you because it’s cheaper not to divorce his own wife, unless you go multi-Platinum.”

Talk about not mincing your words! What were you really feeling Wendy? LOL! Anywho, you can check out Wendy's rant when you click on the "Read More" button below:

Cassie Ventura just won't let her sides grow and I know this because she is featured in the new issue of "V" magazine with her sides freshly shaved.

HHGS Rumor: Did Olivia Steal Her Song From Danity Kane?

Well, well, well. Look at what we have here! Last night while I was on my radio show, UrbanLatinoRadio.com (Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 10pm-1am shameless plug), one of my writers said she was sent an email about Olivia's new joint titled "Walk Away". The emailer basically said that Olivia's new joint sounds very much like a Danity Kane joint titled "Ride For You". So, being the gossip girl that I am, I had to check it out and here is what I thought.....the songs sound alot alike! But would I go all the way with it by saying that Olivia stole the idea from Danity Kane? I'm not so sure.

However, I'll let you guys be the judge of that when you check out both songs for yourselves when you click on the "Read More" button below:

HHGS Rumor: Was Yandy Crushing On Jim Jones & Jealous of Chrissy?

So word on the internet curb, or better yet MouthToEars.com is that Yandy may have been crushing on Jim Jones for quite some time now which is why her and Chrissy come to blows on Vh1's "Love & Hip Hop". I always thought it was awkward that Yandy tried to get a little more personal than the average manager when it came to Jim Jones and his personal life, but I had no solid evidence to prove my thoughts so I just stayed quiet.

Well now, MouthToEars.com has provided me with an email that was sent to them in regards to Yandy's feelings for her former client, Jim Jones. And you can check out that email when you click on the "Read More" button below:

"MTE-
I was a intern for someone when I met Yandy. She was very into Jim. The things he asked her to do for Chrissy she did but not because she wanted to . She always made fun of her about the fact that she asked Jim. She was friends with mamma Jones in hopes of winning over Jim. Her jealousy is showing. She is really jealous of Chrissy and her true colors are showing. Its sad Yandy needs her own life. Isn't like fifth grade to say someone is your "brother" or "bestfriend" when you really like them or may have had side relations with them ????????"

I don't know what to think about the email because I have no validity if its true or not, but it is food for thought and makes for good gossip. But now, check out Mona Scott Young tell Yandy to stay in her lane when it comes to Jim Jones and his relationship with Chrissy below:

Amber Rose Former Publicist Says She's A Thief!!!

Big shout out to my sister over at TheYBF.com! She always sends me these little tidbits of information and brings me up to speed with what's going on, but this news here is one for the records!! So let's start this thing off right and that would be at the beginning.

A man by the name of Janero Marchand (photo'd above) is Amber Rose's former publicist who is now deciding to speak out on some thangs! Yes thangs!! ;-) Anywho, Janero Marchand claims that Amber Rose is a thief and the real reason behind her breakup with Kanye West wasn't because of Kim Kardashian. It was because Amber Rose was caught out there cheating!!

You can find out what else Janero Marchand had to say to TheYBF.com when you click on the "Read More" button below:



I was the person who introduced Kanye West and Amber Rose. Amber wanted me to lie to Kanye when he asked me about her stealing. My integrity and morals I was raised on would not allow me to do something like that. I just want the public to know that I am a man that conducts my business with integrity and morals. And I support my clients 100% until they do something that is unethical or unlawful business wise. I never had intentions to speak on this subject, but seeing Amber being dishonest to the media about the reason she and Kanye broke up was the last straw. Kanye is a good person. He helped book my first two music videos, and if it wasn't for him co-signing Amber, she would not be in the position she is in today.


Amber Rose allowed fame, money, and greed to get in the way of her self respect, dignity, and morals. Kim Kardashian did not break up their relationship, Amber did. Amber's lack of gratitude and disrespect for the people who paved the way for her is unconscionable and repugnant. Through it all, I still wish her the best and forgive her for what she did and said to me. I just want the truth to be out there.


That "Robocop" video was set to really break Amber's career and make her a movie star since 90% of the video was centered around her. It was a $1 mill budget video, one of Kanye's most expensive videos. Amber got paid $100,000 for it and I was suppose to get 20% of that, but she had the people pay her directly and try and cut me out of the equation with hopes I never found out. I knew the guy who paid her for the video and he later told me about it. And when I asked her about the money, she was caught off guard that I knew she already got paid. And told me she only got $10,000, but didn't know I saw the receipt of how much she got paid. So that ended our business relationship indefinitely.


The "Robocop" video never got released because of Amber's infidelity. It was put on hold and never released after Kanye caught Amber cheating. Kanye to this day thanked me for my honesty. Once I told Kanye the truth, he later caught Amber red handed when she accidentally called an ex of hers with him on the phone. He wrote a song about it called "Blame Game".

Wowzers!!! Is it really like that with Amber Rose? I don't know what to think! What are your thoughts on this? I'm listening!

What's With Rihanna & All These Bruises?

The photo above is of Rihanna out in L.A. just yesterday with a very visible bruise mark on her left arm. However, this isn't the first time that I've seen Rihanna out with bruises on her body. Now I don't know what's going on here, but one of two things is going on. Either Rihanna is as clumsy as a white girl on Ciroc vodka or someone's laying hands on her!

HHGS Sneak Peek: Nicki Minaj & David Guetta - Turn Me On

Young Money's own, Nicki Minaj is taking her latest visual with David Guetta titled "Turn Me On" back to medieval times. A sneak peek trailer of the video has been released, but don't expect too much from it. The trailer is just 48 seconds long, but with just that much time I can tell this video is going to turn out to be a movie!

Nicki Minaj is not playing any games when it comes to her "Pink Friday's: Roman Reloaded" album which should be hitting stores come April. So with that said, let's check out the sneak peek trailer from Ms. Minaj when we click on that "Read More" button below:

Cash Money Records Is Getting Sued For RAPE!!!

Friend to the site, Futuristic Blogger, has reached out to me in regards to a lawsuit thats going on with Cash Money Records. Apparently, a College Park woman is asking a judge to make a recording company responsible for an assault committed by one of its employees.

Nicole Westmoreland claims she was supposed to be given an opportunity to make a business presentation, but instead she says she was "exposed to illegal drugs and explicit sexual activity" before the act took place. Nicole Westmoreland had this to say as well below:

"I was followed into the bathroom, forced inside and I was raped!"

You can check out the news footage from the case when you click on the "Read More" button below:




Woman Sues Cash Money Records After Alleged Assault: MyFoxATLANTA.com
Alfred Cleveland is serving time in prison for the attack. At one time, Cleveland was "alleged" to be an associate of Cash Money Records moguls Ronald and Brian “Baby” Williams.

Nicole Westmoreland is suing to hold the record company liable in the assault. The Williams brothers had no involvement in the physical assault. You can check out a recent update on this case below:

HHGS Rumor: Did Amber Rose Get A Tattoo On Her Face?

According to The305.com, Amber Rose was spotted hosting at "Cameo" nightclub where she was seen rocking a Mike Tyson inspired tribal tattoo on her face (photo'd above)!

Now, while many are saying this tattoo is real, I think its fake. And the reason why I think the tattoo is fake is because back when Amber Rose got her infamous flower tattoo'd on her arm, modelling agencies everywhere were asking her to stop with the tattoos so that they could book more work for her. Do yall remember that?

Well if you don't, that's ok. I just know that Amber Rose is not going to mess up her money and that she's always doing things for attention. However, I'm curious to hear what your thoughts are on Amber's new look. I'll hold! ;-)
