| SPOTTED: Nene Leakes & Laura Govan DINE OUT At Mr. Chow Posted: 20 Mar 2013 08:48 AM PDT
"The New Normal" star Nene Leakes was spotted out with "BBW LA" star Laura Govan last night. Find out where the ladies went inside...
Nene Leakes, who's making moves in Hollywood on three shows, "The New Normal", "Glee" and "RHOA", was spotted heading into Mr. Chow with "BBW" star Laura Govan last night in Beverly Hills.
Nene was seen rocking the 15-carat engagement ring which she received from her ex-husband turned new fiance Gregg Leakes. We wonder if they'll be a big Bravo wedding special?! She said recently on "TheView" she hasn't decided if it will be televised. But she does want a big modern wedding, since her first one was not.
"Basketball Wife" Laura Govan dined out with Nene for the evening. Later, the pair was seen driving away in Laura's car. We're sure Laura is looking for a way to extend her 15-mins since VH1 didn't seem too happy with her and her co-stars this season. Plus, we hear she's spending much of her time in China where her fiance Gilbert Arenas plays professional b-ball. Time will tell what happens with her reality career....

| Christina Milian & Adrienne Bailon TWIRL For The 'Skirts Only' Fashion Show Posted: 20 Mar 2013 07:38 AM PDT
Christina Milian and Adrienne Bailon were amongst the women who twirled over to last night's "Skirts Only" fashion show in New York. See the pics inside...
Young Money artist Christina Milian was among the high profile Latina women who sat front row at the "Skirts Only" fashion show in New York last night. The "Skirts Only" show was put on by the Orgullosa program, a project of household cleaning giant P&G, which celebrates the achievement of Latina women.
Christina was joined by one of her BFFs, red carpet lover Adrienne Bailon. She rocked a bright pink taffeta skirt with flower detail and a black leather trimmed tank.
Christina looked gorgeous in a long, flowing purple maxi dress.
The singer chicks sat front row center as they paid homage to their community.
Christina, who recently shot a few scenes for Birdman's "Tapout" video, is working on her debut disc for Young Money. And it appears she called it a night early on...since she is a mom afterall. Shortly after the show, she tweeted, "Goodnight...#NYC The Night Is Yours." Pretty looks for the ladies.

| DINNER DATE: LaLa Anthony Gets Sexy For Dinner With Bestie Kim K. Posted: 20 Mar 2013 07:02 AM PDT
VH1 reality star LaLa Anthony spent last night grabbing dinner with her best friend and mom-to-be, E! reality star Kim Kardashian. And the ladies got dolled up for their QT in Beverly Hills.
Pics inside.... The twosome were spotted all smiles and holding hands while they made their way past the paps to enter Crustacean Restaurant. LaLa rocked a sexy tailored white suit with a bra top, while Kim rocked her usual all black with a touch of lace look to cover her baby bump:
LaLa's "Full Court Life" show is currently airing on VH1 in its third season. And Kim's show "Kourtney & Kim Take Miami" is still in rotation on E!. So we're sure the gals had a lot to catch up on...reality shows, relationships, mommyhood and clothes. Major dinner talk.
La also snapped a pic for Instagram of her holding K's baby bump. Fun times.

| BUSTED: Too Short Runs From The Police, Popped For DUI And FELONY DRUG POSSESSION Posted: 20 Mar 2013 05:50 AM PDT
Rapper Too Short was busted in LA for DUI and felony drug possession AFTER running from the cops. Get details about the arrest inside...
Blow The Whistle! Rapper Too Short attempted to evade cops in the LA this morning, resulting in an arrest on DUI and felony drug possession. Too Short aka Todd Anthony Shaw, 46, was pulled over for a traffic violation earlier and was asked to step out of his vehicle. When cops tried to give Todd a breathalyzer, he decided (while obviously under the influence) to take off running down the street. Of course.....we know what happens when a dude taking off running and they have their pants sagging. He trips. WOMP. The cops placed Todd under arrest and once inside the vehicle, he reportedly tried to dump his drugs in the back in the police cruiser. Sigh. Now, according to TMZ, he's being booked for DUI and felony narcotics possession. At least 5-0 didn't add "resisting arrest" to it as well. We'll keep you posted.....

| VIDEO FAB: Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors" Posted: 19 Mar 2013 09:13 PM PDT
In an emotionally powerful video for his new single "Mirrors," Justin Timberlake is telling the story of how vintage love can show you what your future love will entail.
Check out the video inside... Justin went the mini-movie route for his new video for "Mirrors," fresh off his 20/20 Experience in stores today. It's 8 minutes and 21 seconds of a personal love story, and Justin doesn't show up until well past the 5 minute mark. The singer showcased his grandparents' 63 years of marriage (he dedicates the video to "William & Sadie") and their long time love in the sweet video, complete with mirror effects. Justin's grandfather, William, died late last year and also missed Justin's wedding to Jessica Beil because of his failing health. JT seems to have depicted a torch being passed to him and his own new marriage. Check out the Floria Sigismondi-directed video for "Mirrors" below: |

"Splash" star Keshia Knight Pulliam has snapped back at folks commenting on her swimsuit body. See what she said inside and watch Tatyana Ali dish on popping bottles with Drake and defend her one-night stand comment.
Keshia Knight Pulliam stopped by VH1's "Big Morning Buzz" to promote tonight's debut episode of the ABC diving competition series "Splash." During the chat, she joked that, "There's no other sport where your goal is to land on your head." And while talking about all the bumps and bruises she endured while filming the show, Keshia also addressed the criticism she's received about her body once pics from the set leaked.
Fans of the former Cosby kid and "House of Payne" star can catch Keshia tonight on the premiere of ABC's "Splash", at 7/8pm CT. Watch the interview here: Get More: Big Morning Buzz Live With Carrie Keagan
Also on tv talk shows..... "Second Generation Wayans" star Tatyana Ali stopped by "The Wendy Williams Show" today where the host got the actress to open up about her life as a child star. And Tatyana also cleared up a few controversial comments she made about one-night stands. But before they could get to her thoughts on hooking up, Wendy blindsided Tatyana with a pic of her boo'd up with rapper Drake. When Wendy asked if they had hooked up, Tatyana began blushing wildly and refused to confirm "yes or no." But while smiling and laughing like a school girl, she told a story about him buying her a bottle of champagne at the Supper Club in LA for her birthday, and ended by saying, "I think he's amazing...I think he's awesome." We're sure. The subject of "hooking up" with Drake led to a discussion of one-night stands. In a recent "Q-n-A" with The HuffPost, Tatyana gave one very shocking answer that she had to clear up on "Wendy." In the article, it read
The little tidbit set off a wave of nasty and judgmental comments. Tatyana said the comment was tongue-in-cheek but she was surprised by the backlash she received with this being 2013! She went on to say that "if" the comment were true....she's a grown woman! Wendy chimed in and said women have the right to live their lives and make choices...as long as they are being responsible. The BET star also revealed that she was very close to her first tv mom, Janet Hubert (the first Aunt Viv) and her tumultuous departure was like a divorce. She said Janet taught her how to ride horses amongst other things. She also commented that tension ran high on the set, but Will Smith NEVER made the cast choose between him or Janet. Watch the clip above.

While promoting his new film Temptation, Lance Gross talked exclusively to TheYBF.com about his relationship with his hot stylist girlfriend, pictured above, Rebecca Jefferson, and if they are planning to walk down the aisle. Get the deets inside...
Temptation star Lance Gross should have learned a thing or two about marriage after his latest intense role in the Tyler Perry flick. So when we saw Mr. Gross looking so in love at Saturday night's Atlanta premiere, we had to ask if he's ready to jump the broom himself with girlfriend Rebecca Jefferson. "That's big!" Lance dished to TheYBF.com on the red carpet. "Not anytime soon, not anytime soon. I'm comfortable where I am. We're in a great place, we're in love, just taking it slow." Awww. Also, the busy actor told us about his newest role in an upcoming unnamed NBC series:
And we can expect for him to take on another Tyler Perry flick in between in his TV gigs....if the script is good. He revealed about his character this go-round:

| REMEMBER HER? Check Out What "R&B Divas L.A." Star Michel'le Looks Like NOW... Posted: 19 Mar 2013 01:20 PM PDT
She rose to fame in the 90's with her hits "Something In My Heart" & "Nicety" while on Death Row Records. And now, Michel'le's gearing up to star in the upcoming season of "R&B Divas L.A."
Peep what the songstress looks now while shopping it up in L.A. yesterday....
43-year-old Michel'le Toussant made her way to the MAC Pro makeup store in L.A. yesterday. And we barely recognized her as she was spotted getting a mini makeover while shopping solo.
The singer will star on the upcoming new show "R&B Divas LA," which is a spinoff of the original "R&B Divas" based in Atlanta. The TV One show, airing this fall, will hopefully showcase her life as the mother of Dr. Dre's son (they share a 22-year-old son named Marcel). And we want to know her current status with ex-husband, Suge Knight, who she filed child support papers on back in 2010 in order to keep her support money the same. Suge previously filed papers saying his income was about $1,300/month, so Michel'le's child support payments, for their daughter Bailel, threatened to go from $13,000 a month down to $302 a month. We'll be watching...

As she gears up for her wedding to fiance' Todd Tucker, Kandi Burruss is dishing her own marriage advice to TheYBF.com. And also tells us a bit about the upcoming "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion show, if she's returning to the show, and why BRAVO is pissy she's suing Kim Zolciak. The engaged Kandi Burruss has some marriage advice already. And it's the smartest we've heard so far. "Well, I learned from housewives that I shouldn't be giving other people advice about their marriage," Kandi, in a yellow peplum Karen Millen dress, dished exclusively to TheYBF.com at the Atlanta premiere of Temptation this past Saturday. She continued, "I felt bad [about how the girls treated co-star Porsha Sewart on the L.A. trip]. After I went back and watched it, I was like 'oh that was wrong'. My mama always said you're not supposed to speak on other people's marriages, so that's my advice. Just mind your own business and don't be trying to talk about it to other people who are not married." Duly noted, Kandi.
Check out what else the singer/songwriter revealed to us about whether she'll return to "RHOA" and why she's going forth with this lawsuit against former co-star Kim Zolciak over "Tardy For The Party". On if she's returning to "Real Housewives of Atlanta" for another season: You know what, this year I have to say, [this season] was a lot better. I mean we didn't have drama, it was more funny stuff to me. When Kim left the at the top of the season, it actually made things better for the rest of us. We had little things here and there, but it was cool. I'm not totally done with "Real Housewives", but at the same time I'm more excited for "Kandi Factory". Just because it's not about drama at all. It's about the music and me helping people. And I'm executive producer on that, so it's a little different. On the controversy over her newest single "Stay Prayed Up": At times it made me feel really bad. But other times, I was just like, you know, I've gotten use to people having things to say. I was just doing what's true to me. I would like to do more Gospel, but at the same time, I don't think people are ready for that from me. On last week's "RHOA" reunion taping: I had to sleep all day from Thursday. It was an all day training event, but it was cool. On why BRAVO wouldn't Kandi speak on her lawsuit against Kim Zolciak at the reunion taping: Well, [producers] don't want me to sue her. You know when you're on a show together, they say you're not suppose to sue each other. But what I'm suing her for has nothing to do with the show. Kandi, pictured above joking around at the premiere with her producer fiance Todd, will premiere "The Kandi Factory" spinoff on April 9th on BRAVO.
