| Monica & Shannon Brown Make Press Rounds, Hit "106 & Park" Posted: 07 Aug 2012 10:21 AM PDT
Monica & her basketball playing hubby Shannon Brown made their promo rounds yesterday, including a stop by "106 & Park." Check out what the twosome had to say about Shannon's upcoming Wood Star Music Festival and the love he has for his wife... Monica, rocking a sheer red & blue leopard Christopher Kane blouse, Kanye West cargo pants & Christian Louboutin pumps, dished to Rocsi Diaz about the love she has for her hubby. She said she knew he was all she needed "as soon as [I] spoke to him." Awww.
Shannon returned the admiration saying he's still getting used to being a "celebrity couple." But he chooses to focus on just loving his wife as much as possible, instead of trying to do a reality show like others. As for the pros and cons of a celebrity marriage, Shannon said they don't have enough time to spend with each other between their studio time and workouts. But they understand each other and the daily struggles they go through.
Doug E. Fresh stopped by as well when Shannon talked about his upcoming Music Festival. He wants to give back to his city something positive, so a weekend of fun, music, basketball clinics and more are in store for his Wood Star Music Festival. And his wife Monica is performing Saturday August 18th at Union Park.
Cute look Mo! Check out video of the couple's appearance below:
And after stopping by the show, Mo was spotted going back to her NYC hotel room at Trump Soho:

| Azealia Banks BEEFING With Jim Jones, Says He Should Stop Being "Such A Harlem Ni**a" Posted: 07 Aug 2012 09:27 AM PDT
Azealia Banks seems to have a quick temper when she sits at her keyboard. And Jim Jones is the latest to feel her wrath. Get the deets on their beef inside..... In what's likely one of the most petty of beefs, Harlem rappers Azealia Banks and Jim Jones had a spat over the word VAMP. Azealia tweeted "VAMP: a very sexually/financially powerful woman who is usually characterized by a penchant for dark things; nighttime, witchcraft, .. Etc." Then a fan said that Jim Jones had already made a track called "Vamp Life" and Jim, who has been on a whole Vamp movement for a few years now and on "Love & Hip Hop", responded: "@Rahim_TheDream @AZEALIABANKS tht vamplife is contagious." Sounds innocent enough, but Ms. Banks went left saying, "@jimjonescapo don't be tryna take no credit Holmes." Then Jim said, "Knock it off please learn more about Harlem before u start vampin lol jokes enjoy ur day keep #vampin" A. Banks replied, " UUUUUGGGGGGHHHH SHHHUTT UP!!! Who was even taking to you in the first place?!" "like seriously.... Stop being such a Harlem n***a right now." Then Jim said, "I am a Harlem n***a thts y u font belong there stay in Cali wit ur fake booooogie asss make sum $ first Lrn ur shoes n bags. Tell ur mother go away ub2 bit slore." Yes, we know we sound like a 10-year-old explaining an argument to her school friend during lunch period with their Hello Kitty lunch boxes. Maybe Azealia needs to hire better PR who advise her to stop attacking folks online. It just won't sell any records. And chick is too talented to just be seen as the angry immature spitfire. So now Jim has been added to the list--featuring Lil' Kim, Iggy Azalea, Nicki Minaj, Kreayshawn--of who Azealia has attacked on Twitter.

| Stevie J & Joseline PARTY In ATL, FIGHT On "L&HHATL" + K. Michelle & Rasheeda BEEFING On Twitter Posted: 07 Aug 2012 08:43 AM PDT Fresh off their fight at therapy, Stevie J and Joseline were spotted partying in Atlanta last night. See their party pics and fight clip inside and get the deets on Rasheeda and K. Michelle beefing on Twitter. Stevie J and Joseline Hernandez were spotted getting cozy at Mansion Elan in Atlanta recently.
And the pair seemed very comfortable being affectionate in public. These FACES Stevie J makes....
Oh Joseline.....these stockings and stripper wedges! And things just got...more interesting:
FOlks still think she looks like a man?
The couple may be all smiles now, but last night Joseline took a few swings at Stevie J during a therapy session with Mimi. Joseline got a little upset when she found out Stevie was still living with Mimi and all hell broke loose. Watch the therapy session here: The level of dysfunction is totally unreal. Also in "L&HHATL" news............................ Though they seemed to be cool on the show, the friendship between K. Michelle and Rasheeda has soured. The two ladies were seen going at each other on Twitter last night when K. Michelle said Rasheeda wasn't a BOSS because she had no backbone.
Rasheeda responded by insulting K. Michelle and her unladylike ways for "hooking" up with a friend's man on camera.
She added that no one ever has anything nice to say about K. Well damn.

| AWWW! Sanya Richards-Ross' NFL Husband Cheers Her On To Track GOLD! Posted: 06 Aug 2012 01:30 PM PDT
Sunday evening, TEAM USA track star Sanya Richards-Ross ran away with the gold meal in the 400 meters at the 2012 Olympics as her NFL baller husband cheered in the stands. And it was her hubby's first time watching her compete at the Olympics! Get the deets inside.........
27-year-old Jamaican-American Sanya Richards-Ross sprinted to victory in the 400M race at the 2012 Olympics over the weekend.
The gold-medal victory was a big win for Sanya who had to settle for the bronze in 2008. And in an ironic twist, she beat out the 2008 gold-medal winner, Christine Ohuruogu, of Great Britain, who settled for the silver. The US also took home the bronze with fellow YBF chick Dee Dee Trotter finishing in third.
The sweetest part of it all? Sanya was cheered on by her husband, Aaron Ross, a two-time Super Bowl Champion cornerback who recently signed a 15 $15 million dollar deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The two have been together for 9 years and married for 2 years. And their wedding was featured on a 2012 episode of "Platinum Weddings" on We! The baller was excused from training camp to jet to London to watch his wife compete (it was his first time seeing her run since the NFL is anything but lax on any type of absences). Aaron said,
Sweet! The Jacksonville Jaguars players, coaches and fans watched the race live in the team's EverBank Stadium as Sanya won the gold. By the way, Sanya is the first American woman to win gold in the 400m since 1984. And she'll also compete in the upcoming women's 200m and the relays.
Check out the YBF Chicks' victory celebration:

| Has YOLO Gone Too Far? Tyga's Face Tatt...... Posted: 06 Aug 2012 12:35 PM PDT
Rapper Tyga is sporting a face tattoo that's very similar to the one made famous by Mike Tyson. And looks equally as stupid to be honest. Get the deets inside.....
It might just be his way of celebrating Mike Tyson's Broadway debut...or Tyga really needs some attention. The rapper tweeted a pic of himself, over the weekend, with a face tattoo that has fans scratching their heads. The words “Fuck it #YoLo,” accompanied the inked up pic which many people think is "temporary." And we hope it is too. Welcoming a new baby into the world with that ish on your face could scare that youngin' in the delivery room. Sources say he was at Universal Studios earlier on Saturday and his face was without the ink. Sigh...... Maybe he got the ink before he left Universal Studios. Everybody loves a good face painting!

| BACK IN EFFECT: The Game & Fiancee' Tiffney Have A Dinner Date Posted: 06 Aug 2012 11:45 AM PDT
Look like things are back on track. After calling off the engagement and wedding (that was happening days later) last month, The Game announced a weeks later that he and fiancee Tiffney Cambridge were back on. And it looks like all is still good...for now...as the twosome were spotted on a dinner date last night in L.A.
Pics inside...
With a still heavily bandaged thumb after a basketball game accident (did somebody get their ass handed to them?), rapper The Game headed out to dinner with his back-on fiancee Tiffney last night:
The two were spotted looking cute and casual. With no signs of the rockiness they were facing last month. So the couple left the kids at home and hit Hennessey's for dinner, then left on a Pedicab Rickshaw at Hermosa Beach:
Still no deets on the new wedding date. But we're pretty sure that reality show documenting the days leading up to their nuptials is back on though. You already know.... Pics: WENN |
