| SPOTTED: Drake Goes To Dinner In Beverly Hills+Toni Braxton Out & About In NYC Posted: 26 Oct 2011 09:17 AM PDT Drake and his peach eating lips made their way to dinner at Cecconi's Restaurant in West Hollywood last night. Pics of the love-addicted rapper looking pretty cute, plus Toni Braxton out and about in NYC, when you read on....
A day after Drake's ex-girl Catya put all his oral sex skills and lack of condom use on blast Drake kept it moving at a casual dinner in L.A.: Drizzy's Take Care drops November 15th. Meanwhile in NYC yesterday, Toni Braxton was spotted leaving her hotel with hair stylist Dawn White: She looked cute and casual in her black riding pants and boots and fall sweater. And get your popcorn ready. Because she and her sisters Tamar, Traci, Towanda, Trina and mama Miss E (Evelyn), premiere season two of WE tv’s BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES Thursday, November 10 at 9pm ET/PT. There's 19 all-new hour-long episodes. Here's the extended sneak peek:

| SENSITIVE THUG: DMX GUSHES After Fan PRESENTS Him With Roses Posted: 26 Oct 2011 08:25 AM PDT Who knew that a bouquet of roses was the way to DMX's heart? See photos of the rapper reacting to a fan's floral arrangement gift inside.... DMX prides himself as a gangsta rapper....but even those types have a "sensitive" side. And last night, Earl Simmons dropped his "thug" swagger just for a moment as he was spotted leaving the Maxim Magazine party at the Colony in Hollywood. Once he was outside, a female fan rushed him and gave him a dozen roses. Can't tell if he bought the roses (seeing that there's money in his hands) or simply received them, but either way, dude seemed real touched about it. Then the "pitbull" who usually walks around with a mean mug, let loose a warm and fuzzy smile. Now that he's sober, maybe we will see a whole new side of Earl and get his emo-rapper on... Maybe.

AKOO Clothing and Ciroc hosted a book party for T.I. last night attended by "BBW" stars Laura Govan, Gloria Govan and Imani Showalter. And earlier yesterday, T.I. stopped by his fave flirty talk show host "Chelsea Lately" for a hilarious interview where he said he always ends up in prison after he leaves her show. See pics and watch the interview inside..... Last night, AKOO Clothing And Ciroc hosted a Power And Beauty book party for T.I. at the Porta Via Restaurant in Beverly Hills. While celebrating the success of his first novel, TIP recently announced he's writing a relationship book with wife Tiny. That should be interesting... A newly single Gloria Govan stopped by the event. Very cute look for her. Her sister Laura, who has lost most of her baby weight, also attended. Their "BBW" co-star Imani Showalter wore an eye-catching pink and black dress that showed off her new trim bod. I guess she and Laura are "cool" now...after Monday night's beef-ridden episode. E! News' Michael Yo also attended.
And earlier in the evening....
T.I. stopped by "Chelsea Lately" for a hilarious chat with the host about his time in prison and his relationship with Tiny. As soon as he sat down, Chelsea Handler welcomed him back from prison....again. And without missing a beat, Tip said, "Well it seems like every time I leave here I'm going to prison." Chelsea asked if Tiny really gave him a hand job while in prison and Tip jokingly replied, "That is alleged!" She also asked Tip about the men in his life who served as mentors and he revealed that his imprisoned uncle was a big influence on his life. Oh.... Before the segment ended, he joked around with the rapper loving host saying her Chelsea "Cent." She replied with a "nice try a$$hole." Gotta love that Chelsea.... Photog: Phillips  |
| Rocsi Goes All Sheer With The "Tower Heist" Stars For Russell Simmons' "Conversation" With The Cast Posted: 26 Oct 2011 06:18 AM PDT Rocsi Diaz, who served as MC for the night, showed off her cakes last night in a black totally sheer dress for Russell Simmons' "Conversation With 'Tower Heist' Director Brett Ratner & Cast" event at the Dream Hotel in NYC.
We've got the pics of the cast and celebs who came through to celebrate the new movie inside... Well that's interesting. "106 & Park" host Rocsi took her mic duties over to the Tower Heist event...and probably was a bit cold on her way there. She wore this long black sheer dress with a cinched ribbed waist and high slit. And lacy boyshorts and a bra to cover up her girly bits. With rumors of her dating Bruno Mars floating around (she tells us she's "single" though), maybe she's trying to snag herself a new boo in this getup. Nasir, who appears on the movie's soundtrack, was there. Speaking of black dresses with high slits, Teyana Taylor showed off her bod with her own. She clearly loves this look. Russell Simmons brought model Petra Nemcova along. Are those white stockings? Nas kicked it with director Brett Ratner. And Russell chilled with two of his fave Latinas--Rocsi and LaLa Anthony. Is that a robe or a coat LaLa? She posed inside with publicist Marvet Britto. Where you been Sticky Fingaz? Ryan Leslie brushed off his latest million dollar lawsuit to attend the event. Fab fitness trainer Jeanette Jenkins hit the carpet in this peachy dress and nude pumps. And kicked it with Teyana and Janelle Snowden. "Tower Heist" star Gabby Sidibe chilled with Jeanette and Dule Hill. DJ D-Nice was on the 1's and 2's and kicked it with Cuba Gooding, Jr. We see you Nas.... Photog: Nunez  |
| CANDIDS: Beyonce Keeps Up Her Manicure In NYC+Idris Elba Kicks It In Toronto Posted: 26 Oct 2011 06:00 AM PDT Beyonce is keeping up her mani-pedi as she was spotted hitting up Sakura nail spa in NYC last night. Pics of the "Party" singer ding a little pregnancy pampering, plus sexy Idris Elba keeping it rugged in Toronto, inside... In a colorful bouse and black jeans, Beyonce rolled to the nail spa in the East Village for some manicure action. She looked her uusal smiling and happy self as she made her way through a mob of fans. She switched it up between white nails and dark: Cute. Apparently her "Party" video was pushed back from yesterday to tonight. It's supposed to air on BET around 6p EST. And up in Toronto:
Bey's Obsession co-star Idris Elba was spotted out and about grabbing some lunch and looking low-key....but still sexy. He's in the Canadian city shooting his upcoming movie Pacific Rim. Nice. Pics via SPLASH  |
| VIDEO FAB: J. Cole's "Lost Ones"+Nas & Rick Ross' "It's A Tower Heist" Posted: 26 Oct 2011 05:01 AM PDT J.Cole just released his brand new video for his "Lost Ones" track. And Nas & Rick Ross released their "It's A Tower Heist" off Eddie Murphy's Tower Heist movie soundtrack.
Peep the vids inside... The "Lost Ones" vid showcases a heated argument between J. and his girlfriend once she tells him she's pregnant. And he says he's not ready to be a father. Cole shot this video back in 2008 before getting signed on to Roc Nation and when he barely had a dollar in his pocket. He stated, "3 years later, watching it still gives me the same emotions." So he dedicated this vid to all his fellow "Lost Ones." The track is off his debut album, Cole World: The Sideline Story. By the way, Jermaine's lead girl in the vid is Antoinette Lenae, a model from Atlanta. She was also Fabolous' girlfriend in his movie "Loso's Way."
Nas hit "106 & Park" yesterday to debut his new video with Rick Ross called "It's A Tower Heist." The two rappers teamed up for the track that's featured on the Tower Heist movie soundtrack. It's rare we see original music for movies these days. The video is a montage of movie clips and bth Nasir & a shirtless Rozay in a studio laying out the track. Check it.
The Randomness: 1. Ryan Leslie is getting slapped with a million dollar lawsuit for not paying the milli he promised to the person who found his laptop a while nback. Story  |
| Posted: 25 Oct 2011 02:15 PM PDT Now here's a believable video vixen tale...straight from the horse's mouth. We're usually no fans of birdish behavior like sleeping with a rapper then telling all for attention. But we always welcome some goooooood details.
Check out what "Bad Girls Club" star Catya...yeah, shes out of jail, revealed yesterday about Drake and his "peach eating" skills.... When Catya Washington rolled up into Hollywood's "Bad Girls Club 5" mansion last year..she was uber proud and vocal about her ~classy~ track record of being a video chick and letting rapper Drake tap...and also claimed they dated a year and a half. She even revealed that she runs dope and other illegal ish for her boyfriends. How else can one prove she's a certified down ass chick? Well her running drugs game got her arrested last year. But now she's free as a bird and talking about her ex's bed game...like a bird. But we're listening. "Ms. Cat" hit up our homie Q Deezy's radio show yesterday on Philly's Hot 107.9 (her hometown) to confirm exactly just what Drake is like between the sheets.
Here's the audio and the run down:
How she and Drake met "I was the "only black chick" in his "Best I Ever Had" video. He flew me out to Toronto. One flight turned into 10. And next thing you know I had a toothbrush there. We started dating in a month, it went from 0-60." On how long it took to go from condom to no condom "That's assuming there was ever one involved. I don't condone that though." *EYEBROWS RAISED* If she was trying to get pregnant "If that was the case it would have happened. At the time I was doing my own thing going--I was on the cover of KING and Smooth. I was working. I had my own money." *EYEBROWS RAISED AGAIN* She said she had her own "career" and wanted to do the "Bad Girls Club" and he didn't want her to embarass him. How she and Drake broke up "I was in love. He was in love. I'm talkin' family dinners, we in Whole Foods pushing the cart around, it was a regular relationship. But he started getting a little bit too loose. He pops up in tabloids...with Malia. Trips to Jamaica that I wasn't invited too and never heard about. I'm from South Philly you know we don't go for that. That was my DUDE, not somebody I was just kickin' it with." On if there were any threesomes She said he wasn't into that back then. He was a super nice guy. On if Drake is well endowed--Does he take after his Jewish side or black side "He is a phenomenal peach eater. And he's black and Jewish--and the black side is a little Mandigoish." Biggest gift she ever got from Drake "We shopped and the price tag got expensive. A car, bills paid, I mean we were together. I spent money on him too. He got some gifts." She ended with, "Drake if you miss me, just call me. You aint got to write songs. Come on..." More pics of Catya: BGC 5 promo pic  |

| TV FAB: Eva The Diva Set Flaunt Her Model Life On "The Eva Marcille Project" Posted: 25 Oct 2011 11:15 AM PDT
Eva The Diva is set to debut on Oxygen next year in her own docu-series called the "Eva Marcille Project." Get the deets on the series inside...
Eva Marcille, former winner of "America's Next Top Model" and host of Oxygen's "Hair Battle Spectacular" is set to debut next season in her own show called the "Eva Marcille Project." The series, debuting in 202, is a docu-soap about "...four beautiful and successful best friends who help each other navigate the tumultuous waters of love, celebrity life, and the entertainment industry." The blondeish bombshell will be joined on the show by her besties Denyce Lawton, from Tyler Perry's "House of Payne," Nikki Chu, an L.A. based interior designer, and Kelly Marie Dunn, a talent and brand manager. The "Eva Marcille Project" will be produced by Ish Entertainment with Michael Hirschorn, Madison Merritt and Wendy Roth serving as executive producers. I wonder if she'll address what really went down with her and Lance Gross calling off their engagement. Wil you be watching?  |
| Posted: 25 Oct 2011 10:33 AM PDT Oh Johnny. Mr. Gill was spotted out to dinner in Beverly Hills last night with yet another chick he seems to be convincing us is his chick of the moment.
