| CLEAR THE TABLES: It's Evelyn Lozada's 37th Birthday! Posted: 10 Dec 2012 08:51 AM PST
Reality star Evelyn Lozada turns 37-years-old today. Celebrate with Evelyn inside.... Table-hopping, drink tossing reality diva Evelyn Lozada turns 37-years-old today. Even though she's signed a few endorsement deals and written a book, the "BBW" star has had a pretty rocky year. After the very public demise of her "made-for-tv" marriage and a controversial appearance on OWN's "Fix My Life," she suffered some backlash from fans and criticis for her behavior on televison...and her off-camera choices. But with a little damage control and a new fitness blog that's doing very well for LATINA.com, we'll all (possibly) be watching the next season of "BBW" to see if Evelyn's physical wellness carries over into more positive choices when dealing with her female co-stars. As far as turning over a new leaf, Evelyn's already off to a good start as an advocate for PETA. She unveils her cheeky new winter-themed naked anti-fur ad for PETA tomorrow in LA saying:
Check out Evelyn's sexy red carpet style in the birthday gallery below.... |

Katt Williams really needs to stay away from Seattle...like, forever. Video has surfaced of the comedian beating down an audience member with a microphone. Plus, Kevin Clash, voice of Elmo, now has a 4th accuser coming out of the woodwork... Sigh. Last week when Katt Williams was in Seattle doing a show or two, he got into more trouble than we originally thought. In addition to the bar fight and rock/ashes throwing fight last Thursday that got him arrested, he also beat down an audience member with his microphone on the Friday night he actually performed. Katt claims the mic victim was at fault (his usual claim) because he was filming Katt's show. So instead of Katt calling security to handle that, he jumped into the audience himself and beat the victim over the head with the mic. And he got back on stage and told the audience:
Goodness. Now, the victim, Carlos Casto-Lino, has suffered a concussion and is suing both Katt and the theater for $250,000. Everything was caught on video below:
By the way, Katt was arrested over the weekend or wreckless driving.
In other foolish news, a fourth accuser has come forward, named the anonymous 'John Doe', in the Kevin Clash saga. And TMZ reports that Doe claims he and Kevin had a relationship when he was 16/17, while Kevin was in his 30's. So he's now suing for emotional distress.
This just gets worse.

| ALL GROWN UP: Happy 27th Birthday Raven Symone! Posted: 10 Dec 2012 07:13 AM PST
Former child star turned Broadway chick turned sitcom star Raven Symone turns 27-years-old today. Celebrate her big day inside... Former Cosby kid Raven Symone, who spent most of her childhood on the small screen, celebrates her 27th birthday today. The sitcom and movie actress made a big splash this year with an eye-popping body transformation and a starring role in the Broadway musical "Sister Act." And though she dodged questions about her personal life and sexuality, and now we all know the real deal, she became a spokeswoman for human rights and the NoH8 campaign. Hopefully she's got some new projects on the horizon for 2013...because we can't help but love her. See Raven's style transformation this past year in the gallery. |

Last night, OWN aired the "Oprah's Next Chapter" episode starring Kerry Washington, Shonda Rhimes and Judy Smith. Watch the full video inside... Django Unchained star Kerry Washington appeared on "Oprah's Next Chapter" last night where she talked about her starring roles on the ABC drama "Scandal" and her controversial film with Jamie Foxx. Kerry discussed how she went from playing the role of a slave in the "Django" film to playing the role of a fully actualized woman on "Scandal' and the challenges that put on her mentally. And Kerry nearly brought Oprah to tears when she described the powerful and "in control" character Olivia Pope as the actualized dream of a slave woman. Series creator Shonda Rhimes also appeared on the show where she discussed being both a working mom and one of the most powerful women in Hollywood. She jokingly revealed that her secret to creating a healthy work environment was know as the "A$$hole Background Check." And, Judy Smith, the real life inspiration for Olivia Pope, appeared on the show to talk about some of the past scandals she's worked on and offered advice on the few that slipped by her, like Tiger Woods. And in case you were wondering--she cleared up that the real life Judy Smith NEVER had an affair with President George Bush. It's all for TV. Watch the full episode below:

Grab ya wigs...Beyonce is flying back on the scene with a vengeance. We've got her brand new just released PEPSI ad, and she's getting rare face time ON the can. Plus, the "Countdown" chick hit up a few art shows solo today at Miami's Art Basel. Pics and deets inside...
She kicked off her decade long relationship with PEPSI back in 2001. And now, she back and taking over the brand for a Limited Edition Series of Pepsi cans. By the way, her newest deal is worth a reported $50 million. Yeah...that much. And will include major publicity behind her upcoming new album, live concerts, cool photoshoots, Bey's whimsical ideas, videos and more. Baddie Bey said in a statement on Sunday about her new campaign:
The mega deal is being described as a "hybrid project with Beyoncé that will include standard advertising like commercials as well as a multimillion-dollar fund to support the singer’s chosen creative projects." Her general manager of her Parkwood Entertainment company, Lee Anne Callahan-Longo, revealed to the NY Times:
Beyonce's brand new ad for the soft drink company--which will first be seen early 2013 as a life-size poster in stores--just came out today and was shot back in October. And it's pretty cute. The pop superstar is seen pushing a cart full of Pepsi...in her black and blue polka dotted blazer, briefs and heels.
And her face is taking over a Limited Edition Series cans. A rare, if at all, opportunity any celeb gets for the soft drink company. The campaign is likely going to take off around the same time as her big Halftime Show takeover at the 2013 Superbowl in February. Reportedly, some time after her big performance, her fifth TV commercial for the brand will air. And she's set to release some new music around that time as well.
Meanwhile, the fab 31-year-old made her way to a few more art shows today (Sunday) at Miami's Art Basel, but this time she went without her hubby. And she brought her mom Tina and bestie Kelly Rowland along instead:
Loving this floral set--she's rocking Emma Cook silk crepe de chine shorts with the matching button up shirt.
She took her Cannon camera along to snap pics of her fave artwork,which she later uploaded to her Tumblr page, and her cousin Angie tagged along for some fun:
Her bag is the 440 Mixed-Media Top Handle Bag by Diane Von Furstenberg. And we're gonna need that.

In tonight's episode of the Breezy Love Chronicles, we've learned that tonight, after her live performance on the "X Factor UK" finale, Rihanna jetted over to Paris....were we know Chris Brown and his ex/sometimes ex/whatever they want to call it girlfriend Karrueche Tran are spending some time together. This comes after her Twitter lash-out after she learned Kae made her way to the City of Lights.
Deets and pics inside...
So Chris was spotted leaving his hotel (the W) in Paris tonight on his way to Bercy's Live Theater for his last concert in the city. And amongst the tons of fans who were losing their wigs as he and his crew made their way to their tour buses, we spot Chris' hat. It says The Kill. What's that you ask? That would be the name of Karrueche's new clothing line. Oh...how nice of him to give his "ex" some publicity. It's the least he can do when he has her and Rihanna pretty much publicly fighting over his boy bits.
That brings us to Rihanna's next move. After her performance at the finale for the "X Factor UK', she hopped a plane to Paris and tweeted a pic from her hotel room (above) saying, "Risky business #paris". Yeah...we're sure honing in on Chris and Kae's QT in Paris is indeed risky business. This ought to get interesting. BONUS: Check out both of Rih's performances from tonight, where she's rocking a sexy Alexander Wang dress:

| SPOTTED: The Smith Family TURNS UP To SUPPORT Trey's DJ Gig Posted: 09 Dec 2012 05:15 PM PST
Last night The Smith clan stepped out in Miami to lend support to the eldest Smith child, Trey, who was DJing. See pics of the supportive family partying together inside. Trey Smith hit the turntables last night for a high-profile DJing gig in Miami, FL. And with many celebs in town for Art Basel, we're sure the guest list was packed.
Trey's famous siblings, Jaden and Willow, attended with their superstar parents Jada and Will Smith.
Will flashed his pearly whites and Willow shot a few side-eyes at the photographers. Of course.
Meanwhile, Jaden's funky haircut seems to be taking shape as those greenish spots have grown out. We're not sure what he's aiming for but it doesn't look too bad. We know the Smiths like to be "creative" and all...

| Karrueche Jets To Paris To Be With Chris Brown, Rihanna Lashes Out On Twitter? Posted: 09 Dec 2012 01:58 PM PST
Rihanna posted this cryptic pic last night of herself laying in what seems to be Chris Brown's arms. And it conveniently came after some harsh words she tweeted nice pics surfaced of Karrueche chillin' in Paris with Breezy.
Pics and deets inside... If you're not over this messy love triangle that is Breezy, Kae & Rih...you may be after today. So, pics pipped up (tweeted by Karrueche Tran herself and her friends) of Ms. Kae traveling to Paris...where Chris is giving a set of concerts for his Carpe Diem tour. His last one being tonight. Yeah, we know she's his "stylist" and all. But even after their breakup with Kae being so heartbroken and all? Hmmm. Seems like she's just trying to get in...and stay in...where she fits in.
She posted pics of her and friends posing on the streets of Paris, and she was spotted shopping and leaving Chris' hotel as well.
We're not sure if that last pic of Chris eyeing her ass is new or an old one...but we haven't seen it before last night. Hmmm...
So last night, Rihanna, who was performing in Germany for a tv show, posted this harsh message and later deleted it:
It's pretty clear who THAT'S about. She later posted the very top pic of herself in what seems to be Chris' arms saying:
My how quickly things change. Anywho, Rih ended her night last night by ice skating it up with her girls, after the live show:
BONUS: Rihanna performed “Diamonds” on the popular German show “Wetten, Daas..?” last night live: Check out her performance of "Diamonds" below:
Tonight, she's back in London doing her second performance this month on the UK's "X Factor". One Direction, Kylie Minogue and Emili Sandé are also slated to perform on tonight's finale show. |
| Tyga's Baby Moms Blac Chyna Shares New Photos of Baby Cairo + Lil' Kim BREAKS UP With Mr. Papers Posted: 09 Dec 2012 10:28 AM PST
Rapper Tyga's baby momma Blac Chyna has shared new photos of their baby boy. See the pics inside and find out what Lil' Kim said about breaking up with her boyfriend.
Blac Chyna and rapper Tyga have shared new photos of their son King Cairo Stevenson. And he's a cutie: And fans can expect a lot more from King Cairo in the future since he (yes...the baby) has his own Tumblr page. Will his own Twitter account be next? Meanwhile, Tyga is still holding on to the story that he grew up in the streets of Compton and not some cushy suburb (like he said himself in an old video that was dug up) tweeting to fans, "U kno my name not my story. Born&Raised Alondra&Central rosecrans&normandie #Compton #Gardena." Interesting...most people want to escape the hood, yet Tyga is clinging to it.
In other music news.....
Lil' Kim is single again. Last week, she posted on Twitter, "As of 2night me & Papers are officially Over. No malice or bad blood. I'll see U guys soon. #12DaysofXmas (december 5th)" In addition to hosting a holiday party Miami on December 22nd, Kim is also gearing up to hook up fans with tons of giveaways for her "12 days of Xmas" promotion. Plus, she's in the studio with Missy Elliott. Something good HAS to come from that. At least we hope.
BONUS: 50 Cent hit the boxing ring last night (after being lowered from the rafters) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas to perform his new hit “My Life.” 50 was there to support his fighter, Olympic gold medalist Yuriorkis Gamboa. This was the first fight for 50's SMS Promotions since he got his Nevada promoter’s license last month. By the way, Yuriorkis won the fight! It would have been pretty embarrasing had he lost after all of 50's pomp and circumstance. |

Beyonce and Jay-Z jetted down to Miami to chill at some Art Basel events on Saturday. Check out their pics inside, plus Zoe Saldana supporting her man Bradley Cooper at a party for his big movie... The Carters made their way to sunny Miami, taking a break from the dreary & cold NYC, to hit up the International Contemporary Art Fair--Art Basel Miami Beach. The fly twosome was spotted at The Standard Hotel at artists JoseParla & JR's Havana, Cuba Project screening & show.
Bey rocked a cute and colorful long sleeved dress with her hair in a big blonds bun with bangs. Check out video of them walking through the event below: Tonight, Jay and his D'Usse cognac are hosting a launch party for the liqur at LIV nightclub. That ought to be interesting... And over in Hollywood:
Zoe Saldana was beaming with pride for her hot boyfriend Bradley Cooper. The two hit up a special event for his acclaimed new movie Silver Linings Playbook, hosted by Lexus and Purity Vodka at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. The 34-year-old rocked a cute polka dot and sheer dress for the occasion: Nice. They posed it up with the film's director, David O. Russell. We're kinda living Bradley and Zoe together. Let's see how long this Hollywood relationship lasts... |
