PUSSYCAT BACHELORETTE: Meagan Good Sexes Up The Stage With The Pussycat Dolls In Vegas!

Posted: 26 May 2012 10:13 AM PDT

She may not be sexing her fiance DeVon Franklin until their wedding night, but that doesn't stop the gorgeous Meagan Good from sexing up the Planet Hollywood stage with the Pussycat Dolls.  Wonder if her minister-husband-to-be had any complaints?

 

Check out pics of the Think Like A Man actress donning all white for her bachelorette celebration...before performed the burlesque show in Vegas....

Film and TV actress Meagan Good celebrates her bachelorette party last night by hosting an after party and rocking her guest performance as a Pussycat Doll at Pussycat Dolls Burlesque Saloon at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. 

She arrived in this sexy white floor length gown with a sheer plunged neckline and side cut-outs.  And looked pretty damn fabulous.

And so does that ring.

Meagan posed with Robin Antin & the Pussycat Dolls on the red carpet before signing autographs for fans and taking the stage herself.  Guess she learned some moves for that impending wedding night after she recently commented she and her fiance of a year are remaining celibate until after they walk down the aisle.  That's gonna be a blast--in more ways than one...

Lil' Kim HITS UP Chicago's "Power 92" + Lil' Wayne's "Ghoulish" Pusha T Diss

Posted: 26 May 2012 09:23 AM PDT

While promoting her "Return of The Queen" tour, Lil' Kim stopped by Power 92 in Chicago and posed for a few pics.  See them inside and hear Lil' Wayne dissing Pusha T diss.

Lil' Kim was spotted at Power 92 in Chicago recently where she posed for pics while promoting her various projects.

Maybe she finally growing into her face because the "work" she's had done isn't looking as bad anymore. 

The outfit actually compliments her and has her looking like a grown woman finally.  Keep it up Kimmie.

 

 

In other rap music music news.....

 

Lil' Wayne has come out with his official Pusha T diss track called "Ghoulish" after he said "f*ck Pusha T" on Twitter.

In the track he says Pusha T has his head stuck up his a$$ and Weezy is going to have to head butt him. Weird. But ok. So comparing this to Pusha T's diss track......is there a winner?

 

BONUS:

Chris Brown has released BTS footage from the "Sweet Love" shoot. Watch it above.

 

MOVIE FAB: Will Smith's "Men In Black 3" Predicted To WIN Box Office With $75M Weekend

Posted: 26 May 2012 08:17 AM PDT

After a four-year absence from the big screen, Will Smith's Men in Black 3 is expected to make a big $75M splash at the box office.....but that's not as big as Hollywood had hoped. Deets inside....

With the last installment of Men in Black hitting screens ten years ago and Will Smith's four-year absence from the big screen, a lot is riding on Sony's worldwide release of MIB this weekend.   But sadly, the predictions aren't saying what Sony and the rest of Hollywood want to here.

The flick is expected to easily beat The Avengers (now in its 4th week of release) and take in $75M, but that's far short of the $90M that Sony expected.

Sony wanted a big first week because the movie cost between $225M-$300M to make.  Meanwhile, Will mentioned a Bad Boys 3 is in the works.  And he's rumored to also be prepping for an I, Robot 2 and Hancock 2.

BACK TO BUSINESS: Beyonce ON STAGE For First Concert As A Mom...Jay-Z Calls Her "Best Performer Alive"

Posted: 26 May 2012 12:13 AM PDT

Beyonce Knowles made her sparkling hair tossing bedazzled return to the stage Friday night after a 9 month baby hiatus.  And we've got the pics and deets.  Plus--what her hubby had to say about it after flying in from overseas just for the night. 

 

If you don't want your experience spoiled because you plan to go (or plan to wait for the supposed DVD she's filming for this), we suggest you skip this post.  If not....carry on...

 

Rocking hot pink heels and two pieces of fringed sparkling goodness baring her midriff and sexy post-baby bod, 30-year-old Beyonce officially got back to business Friday night at Revel Resort for her first of 4 concerts.  Her 4 stage looks were custom made by Ralph & Russo by the way.

The gorgeous new mom had folks all a-Twitter once she hit the stage with new energy, new outfits, net stage decor, and even a few new dancers.  In attendance was her hubby Jay-Z, who jetted in from overseas on his only day off between his Switzerland Watch The Throne stop on Thursday and the Denmark stop on Saturday.  And even he was stanning for his wife tweeting:

"I'm gonna say this and then I'm gonna end mine. BEYONCE is the best performer in the world. Period."

She also saluted Lauryn Hill (whose birthday was yesterday), Donna Summer and Whitney Houston.  Check out a few pics from the performance and a few of the outfit changes:


I see that fat wedding ring stayed on.

 


Even her band got in on the Twitpic action.

As for other rumored celebs in attendance, Kelly & Michelle tweeted they were in Atlantic City at Revel.

ROAD TO REVEL: Beyonce Releases First Pic Of Her Hitting The Stage...And Part 2 Of The BTS Rehearsal Footage

Posted: 25 May 2012 07:36 PM PDT

Tonight's the night!  Ahead of Beyonce hitting the stage in Atlantic City tonight at the Revel Resort for her very first performance in her Back To Business quad of concerts, she's released part two of her rehearsal footage.  Plus, her new pic just before hitting tonight's stage....

On part 2 of her behind the scenes footage of the Back To Business preparations, Bey showed her hustle 3 weeks out.  In addition to rehearsing in NYC, her team took it to the actual Revel Resort in Atlantic City to gauge the venue and stage. She can be seen working on her musical arrangements, and prepping her dancers with angel-like routines and more.

About her return, she commented:

Well I'll be ready. Trying to become Sasha Fierce again. She's there….but I need to bring her back to life.

And went on to say:

I'm scared…this is crazy. We usually have 2 months to do what we're doing in two weeks. But what is new?
 

The R&B & Pop diva also gave a glimpse just minutes ago on her Facebook page of her walking to take tonight's stage.

Get it.

HOUSEWIFE DRAMA: Angela Stanton RESPONDS To Phaedra Parks' $30M LAWSUIT...

Posted: 25 May 2012 04:25 PM PDT

Now that Phaedra Parks has hit VIBE with a $30M lawsuit, Angela Stanton has responded to suit saying she is ready for battle and questioning why Phaedra is attacking VIBE instead of her.  Get the deets inside.....

 

We told you earlier about the dirty little tell-all by Angela Stanton, “Lies of a Real Housewife: Tell the Truth and Shame the Devil…,” that made claims of Phaedra Parks having participated in criminal activity. Now, Phaedra is suing to clear her name...but wait....she's suing VIBE Mag, NOT Angela.

In recently filed docs, Phaedra claims VIBE published and promoted the book which caused the "false and defamatory accusations" to go viral on the Internet. So she is technically suing VIBE for promoting Angela's "lies" and defaming her character.

The suit seeks $5 million in compensatory damages along with $25 million in punitive damages, payment for court fees, and a printed retraction from the magazine. 

Even though she is not named in the suit, Angela had plenty to say in response to the filings.  

Maybe Angela doesn't have $30M, but does she have a point?
