SISTERLY SUPPORT: Beyonce Hits Up Lil Sis Solange's Concert At The Bowery

Beyonce & her bangin' curves made their way to the Bowery last night in NYC to cheer on little sis Solange at her concert.  Pics and video inside..

The Knowles sisters are all about that sibling support.  So it's no surprise big sis Bey skipped out on sitting courtside with her hubby last night in Brooklyn at the Nets vs. Knicks re-match, so that she could support Solo at her concert in the city.

in a multicolored printed curve hugging dress and her nude Louboutin pumps, mama Bey trekked it over to the Bowery to watch Solo perform tracks off her new EP True.  And we're loving her Charlotte Olympia "Pandora" perspex clutch box with the spider clasp and leopard insert.  Photobucket

And like any good big sister, she had her camera in tow too.

Solange entered the venue is a cute yellow snakeskin jacket before hitting the stage in a different look:

Check out Solange's performance of "Some Things Never Seem to F*cking Work" off her True EP.

In other news, Beyonce is set to take over the stage in Vegas once again.  And this time, it's for New Year's Eve.  The top executives at the Wynn hotel confirmed the 2-hour festive show with 700 guests--and this is the same hotel where she performed her first intimate Vegas performance back in 2009 during the "I Am....Yours" tour. She's reportedly get paid a fat $4 mill for the gig.

Kenya Moore RESPONDS About "FAKE RELATIONSHIP," CALLS Walter Jackson DECEITFUL And HATEFUL

Posted: 12 Dec 2012 07:11 AM PST

Hoping to avoid further embarassment, "RHOA" star Kenya Moore has responded to attacks from Walter Jackson about their "relationship". Get her new official statement inside....

Photobucket

Now that Walter Jackson has been seen socializing around the ATL with another woman, and revealed that Kenya Moore asked him to "fake" their relationship on "RHOA," the former Miss USA is responding to save her dignity.

In a statement previewed on TooFab (and set for a reveal on "WENDY" today), Kenya claims that Walter is deceitful and hateful and she's just a girl who wants to fall in love.  Calling his statements "completely false," she says the truth about what went on between them will come to light later in Season 5.  Her statement reads,

“The truth is and has always been that I want to be in a loving, honest, long-term relationship with someone who genuinely loves me for me — Walter’s recent statements are completely false. I am embarrassed that I allowed a deceitful and hateful person in my life.

He says he ‘did it for fame.’ I’ve been humiliated enough by appearing desperate for a man to marry me who now admits he had his own agenda. I urge viewers to stay tuned because the truth will come to light. I am moving on from this situation and hope he can as well with respect and dignity going forward. I have heard the fans and my friends loud and clear … I can do better than Walter, and I will.”

Whether Kenya conspired to "create" her own storyline or not, the folks over at BRAVO can't be too happy about this.  We're sure Andy Cohen will get to the bottom of this at the reunion. 

 

SNOWFLAKE SEXY: Evelyn GOES NAKED For PETA

Posted: 11 Dec 2012 05:03 PM PST

She'd rather be naked than wear fur.  And with a body like that, we wouldn't blame her if she'd just rather be naked, period.  Check out Evelyn Lozada's brand new PETA ad she just unveiled tonight....

"Basketball Wives" star Evelyn is currently filming the upcoming new season of the VH1 show, but she took some time to unveil her new ad for PETA.

The 37-year-old Latina mag fitness blog writer reveals how after watching a video about the mistreatment of animals simply for humans to get their fur, she changed her mind about what's in her closet. And she joins plenty of other Hollywood stars in posing for the animal rights group's campaign.

She said:

"You can verbalize what happens to these animals a thousand times, but [when] you see it, it definitely clicks in—and it did for me."

Check out her fan campaign above, where she's covered in nothing but winter snowflakes, and her behind the scenes footage below (Video contains brutal clips of animal mistreatment):

She may be anti-fur, but we don't expect her to go vegan anytime soon.  Chick is not giving up her Louboutins...

TV FAB: Tamar Braxton Performs "Love & War" On "WENDY" + Big Boi & Kelly PERFORM "Mama Told Me" On "The View"

Reality star Tamar Braxton stopped by "The Wendy Williams Show" to sing her chart-topping single "Love And War." See her performance along with Big Boi and Kelly Rowland on "The View" inside.....

 

With her single reigning high on the iTunes chart and sure to make a huge impression on Billboard, Tamar Braxton stopped by "WENDY" to perform "Love And War."  The single is already making a big splash on the airwaves and maye just give Tamar the taste of music success that she craves. 

Her husband Vince was extra hype from the audience about the performance and it seemed to bring a tear or two to Wendy's eyes towards the end. Afterwards, Wendy chatted with Tamar about her friendship with Lady Gaga (who asked her fans on Twitter to support the single).

Watch Tamar sing "Love And War" here...

 

Also on morning tv....

 

Big Boi and Kelly Rowland stopped by "The View" this morning to perform Big Boi's latest single "Mama Told Me."  When asked if Outkast would if reunite, Big Boi blew the question off (in a very politically correct way) and told the hosts that it would happen when the time is right and Andre 3000 decides he wants to do it.  And as for a Destiny's Chhild reunion, Kelly said, "We'll have to wait and see." 

Watch the performance above.....

Evelyn Lozada & Shaunie O'Neal GO IN On Gloria Govan After Her "Basketball Wives: LA Exists Because Of Me" Statement

Posted: 11 Dec 2012 10:36 AM PST

Photobucket

Evelyn Lozada and Shaunie O'Neal have something to say about the "Basketball Wives: LA" reunion that went down last night.  And they went in on Mrs. Gloria Govan Barnes.  Why?  Because Glo was giving herself a bit too much credit for how the spin off show got started.

 

Deets inside...

On last night's part 1 of the "Basketball Wives: LA" reunion show, Gloria Govan, dressed in a white Alexander Wang dress and Gucci heels, was feeling herself a bit too much.  As usual, she was popping her gums with the smart ass tone most  of the cast have come to hate.

Photobucket

So when she and Bambi began to fight, for the umpteenth time, Glo said she didn't understand why Bambi was even on the show in the first place.

Of course, Bambi hinted that she was important enough to be on the show--and tried to hint at Gloria's alleged ho-ness in the streets with other men.

So Gloria popped back with "Basketball Wives: L.A. was created because of me" type statements.  She said she and her sister Laura went to L.A. (after the "BBW Miami" debacle) and the show kicked off from there.

But not so fast Gloria, because head honcho (who doesn't have as much say herself we've come to learn) Shaunie O'Neal said SHE is the reason Glo even has a show.  And of course, Evelyn Lozada got in on the foolery too.

First, Ev tweeted last night:

I just need to make something CLEAR! It is because of @ShaunieONeal creating BBW Miami,Shed Media & @VH1 that there is a "SPIN-OFF" #CarryOn

Then Shaunie RT'd Ev and said:

Thank u Boo! I've been telling myself 2 put the phone down #iwontaddresstrash lol

Trash tho?  Damn.

 

 

On another note, exes Chad Johnson & Evelyn have been exchanging love tweets, and the latest was on her birthday yesterday.  They tweeted each other in Spanish (assuming no one would be able to translate we guess?).  Chad first said:

"Happy birthday, love. I hope the day I can hold you again. God be with you, hope you have insurance."

And Ev responded:

"Thank you for my birthday wish. I miss you so much."

And if that wasn't enough mushiness, Chad's 14-year-old daughter Jicyraa tweeted--in English-- a pic of Ev (her former stepmom) saying:

"Long story short: I LOVE YOU. I MISS YOU. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU," Jicyra wrote on the caption of an Instagram photograph of the reality television star. "YOU ARE THE BEST. NOBODY CAN TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THIS LITTLE HEART OF MINE. I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE IN MY LIFE."
 

Evelyn responded:

"Why she will forever have a special place in my heart @Jicyraa_Carter -- You have me crying."
 

And Ev went back to her spanish tweets with Chad saying, what translated to, "A missing piece."  Chad responded, "I'm the missing piece." 

Sigh.  Sometimes love knows no logic....

MOVIE FAB: Will and Jaden Smith' TEAM UP AGAIN In "After Earth" TRAILER

Posted: 11 Dec 2012 09:41 AM PST

Photobucket

Will and Jaden Smith have re-teamed as father/son characters in the new futuristic thriller After Earth. Watch the preview inside....

Photobucket

Will and Jaden Smith (who first played father and son in Pursuit of Happyness) have teamed up again for the upcoming thriller After Earth. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan, After Earth takes place on "Earth," but more than 1000 years into the future.

Will and his youngest son play Cypher and Kitai Raige, soldiers who have crash landed on the abandoned planet and must figure out a way to survival. Here's the catch: everything left on "Earth" has evolved to kill humans.

And with Will's "Cypher" character injured, Jaden's "Kitai" must step up to the plate as a soldier and find their rescue beacon. The film will also explore father/son dynamics and Kitai's need to be validated by his father.

The film hits theaters June 2013.

 

Watch the trailer here:

SPOTTED: Kelis, Nas & Baby Knight SHOP IT UP On The STREETS of BEVERLY HILLS

Posted: 11 Dec 2012 08:58 AM PST

Photobucket

Kelis was seen holding her son Knight in Beverly hills yesterday, and her ex-husband Nas was also spotted in the area headed to go meet them.  Hmmm.  See pics of the ex-couple and their kiddie inside....

Photobucket

Yesterday, "Milkshake" singer Kelis was seen in an extra eclectic outfit at the Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills shopping for shoes.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Later on, Kelis was seen walking out of the store (in an interesting pair of leggings ad platform sneakers) with her cutie pie son Knight on her hip. And Knight seems to be following his mom's fashion tips with his funky orange sneakers, green socks and paperboy cap.

 Photobucket

Photobucket

Though they weren't photographed together, sexy rapper Nas was also in Bevelry Hills and was seen taking on his cell and walking up to the same Saks where Knight and Kelis were.  You'll recall that Nas and Kelis have been on vacation together in the past, so maybe he's in town working on "relationship" things...or he could just be visiting his kids.  Either way, good to see them getting along...
