NFL Baller Adrian Wilson Tries To Save Face After Dating Malika Haqq While Still Married, Renews Vows With WIFE Alicia

Posted: 21 Mar 2012 10:11 AM PDT

Well isn't this special.  If you saw the episode on this season's "Khloe & Lamar" where Khloe Kardashian's bestie/actress Malika Haqq was dating Arizona Cardinals star Adrian Wilson, you will know why him renewing his vows with his WIFE this month is very convenient.

 

Now, Adrian is explaining the "cheating" rumors about him dating Malika while still married, but separated.  And took his wife to Hawaii this month to renew their vows...

On this season of "Khloe & Lamar," ATL star (who happens to be Khloe's bestie and has appeared on all the Kardashian shows faithfully) Malika Haqq started dating NFL star Adrian Wilson.  The relationship began to wear on her, though, when she began to feel guilty for dating him knowing he was married.  But separated.

Malika even got into a fight with married Khloe over it, who was trying to discuss with Malika why she felt guilty.  Malika essentially said she feels she's breaking up his kids' family, and knows that she could be the reason Adrian and his wife are not reconciling.  So she made the hard decision to take a step back.

Now, Adrian tells Essence.com he doesn't like how he was portrayed.  So he's dishing on his take on dating Malika during his separation.  Oh, and he decided to reconcile with his wife, Alicia, and give her the "wedding of her dreams" in Maui on March 11th.  The couple renewed their vows in front of 60 of their friends and family during a beach ceremony--with 2 gown changes from Alicia (both pictured above).  Must be nice....

Adrian Wilson on accusations he "cheated" with Malika on "Khloe and Lamar":
"We were separated for six months. That’s what everybody doesn’t understand. We were separated for a while. Getting back together was something that we had to talk about for a very long time. We talked some times all night long and into the next morning — talking about what needed to change. We realized they weren’t really big things; they were just things we needed to work on as a couple."

Adrian Wilson on whether or not his experience dating Malika had any affect on his reconciliation with his wife Alicia:
"I don’t think there’s anything like true love. I’ve known my wife since middle school. I don’t think there’s anything stronger than knowing the other person the way we know each other. My wife did her thing; I did my thing. We were apart. Whatever. It was never really about any other person, it was about us individually."

Adrian Wilson on how he felt he was portrayed on "Khloe and Lamar" and the negative backlash he received:
"The whole episode attacked my character, and it was shown in a way that reflected the opposite of who I really am. But that’s cool; that’s what they do. Am I mad? Sure. But at the end of the day, that’s not what is most important to me. It’s no longer on my mind. I told my wife all about it and about everything that happened before the show even aired. She was well-prepared for everything — for the backlash and all that stuff."

El Debarge ARRESTED...Again...For Drug Possession!

Posted: 21 Mar 2012 09:32 AM PDT

After a stint in rehab last year, El Debarge has once again been caught in possession of drugs.  He was reportedly arrested in L.A. yesterday....and cops suspect he may have been attempting to sell them.

 

Deets inside...

According to TMZ, crooner El Debarge, who has suffered a long battle with substance abuse, was arrested yesterday afternoon in Encino, CA for being in possession of drugs with intent to sell.  The site states:

El was popped around 2 PM in Encino, CA ... after LAPD officers observed him participating in what appeared to be a drug deal with another man near the 101 Freeway.

DeBarge was arrested for possession of narcotics with intent to sell. It's the 3rd time El has been arrested for drug possession since 2001.

He was hauled to a nearby jail where he was booked and released on $30k bail. El is due back in court next month.
 

His brother James is currently serving time for assault with a deadly weapon and drug charges.  Hope El gets this together....

 

El was spotted outside Tru nightclub last month (above pic) after having an emotional reunion with Whitney Houston inside (video above).

CANDIDS GALORE: NeNe Leakes, Selita Ebanks, Christina Milian & Ice-T & Coco

Posted: 21 Mar 2012 09:11 AM PDT

The ladies (and a gent) were out and about yesterday in L.A.  And we've got plenty of pics of a gym-ready Christina Milian, dinner having NeNe, a TV ready Selita Ebanks & camel-toe lovers Ice-T & CoCo....

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star NeNe Leakes booked it to Beverly Hills after the RHOA reunion taping last week.  She was spotted having dinner at Mr. Chow last night with her fave grey Birkin in tow:

Wonder if she's networking for new actual tv roles.  Hope so.

 

And over at The Grove:

Model (and Terrence J's girlfriend) Selita Ebanks made her way to the set of "EXTRA" yesterday.  She rocked Sass earrings--the name of her swimsuit company--and an Equipment star print washed silk crepe de chine shirt with hot pink pumps and a pink & gold studded leather jacket.

There's a whole lot going on with this look.  Maybe too much.

Love this blouse though.  Selita will appear on tonight's "Rip The Runway" show on BET as co-host.

Elsewhere in L.A., :Law & Order: SVU" star Ice-T & wife CoCo made their way down Rodeo Drive for some shopping with pup Spartacus:

I'm thoroughly convinced they both have an affinity for CoCo's spandexy camel toe.  Can't lie though--their E! reality show is quite interesting.
 

 

And Christina Milian was also spotted out in L.A. yesterday showing the right way (and time) to wear spandex without having your whoohah covered:

The cutesy makeup free singer was spotted filling up at the gas station.  She was rocking her gym gear as she's still working out that post baby body 2 years later.  She looks great!

Diamond REVEALS Why She's Not Doing "Love & Hip Hop: ATL"

Posted: 21 Mar 2012 08:34 AM PDT

 

Rapper Diamond is speaking out about VH1's upcoming "Love & Hip Hop" spinoff and revealing why she won't appear on the show. Despite rumors that she only quit filming because she's scared of her ex-boyfiend Lil Scrappy's mama.  Deets inside....

Reports hit the net that Diamond (formerly of Crime Mob) was prepping to appear on the "LAHH ATL spinoff" alongside Rasheeda, Stevie J and others.  But now, word has it she won't be appearing afterall, and singer K. Michelle will be replacing her.

During a chat with the Street Disciplez (Ei8ht and Mara), Diamond dished on why she won't be on "Love & Hip Hop: ATL."  In case you were wondering.  Here are the highlights:

ON WHETHER OR NOT SHE WILL APPEAR ON "LOVE & HIP-HOP: ATLANTA":

"No I will not be on the show. Absolutely not."

ON WHETHER OR NOT TALK OF SCRAPPY AND HIS MOTHER APPEARING ON THE SHOW INFLUENCED HER DECISION TO STAR ON THE SHOW:

"Well I'm not sure who all is on the show, but I just know that right now I've been focused on my album and just being surrounded around positive things and positive people, and I just can't play with my career like that. Me being an artist in the middle of my career, you never know how TV can go. It can go good or it can go bad, and I just choose not to gamble with my career like that, you know."

"Actually I prayed about it 'cause I was going back and forth about it, and something just didn't sit right for me to go down that particular path right now. I'm not saying that I won't do reality television somewhere down the line, but as of now, I just feel like my music is my foundation, and that's what people want to hear from me. Me and my life through my music, not reality television."

ON WHETHER SHE RECORDED ANY EPISODES FOR THE SHOW:

"No, I actually took about, I think two meetings, and that was really it."

ON THE RUMOR THAT SHE QUIT THE SHOW AFTER GOING INTO THE BATHROOM TO PRAY WHILE FILMING AN EPISODE:

"Uh uh, that's hilarious! Are you serious? No, I'm the type of person that's all or nothing, so if I were to sign up for it...I would've started it, and I would've finished it. But I hadn't even began filming. You know I had two meetings that I took with the network, and that was it."

ON "LOVE & HIP-HOP" EXECUTIVE PRODUCER MONA SCOTT-YOUNG BEING UPSET WITH HER FOR DECIDING TO NOT DO THE SHOW:

"That is funny. I don't know, like, I know the network really wanted me, so they probably could be disappointed 'cause I decided to pull out. I don't know if there's ever been a situation where someone that they were really banking on being on the show pull out like that, so I really don't know, but that's not nothing I'm interested in."

ON WHETHER TALK OF MONA SCOTT-YOUNG AND THE OTHER PRODUCERS OF THE SHOW SETTING UP SITUATIONS INFLUENCE HER DECISION TO NOT APPEAR:

"I definitely took that into consideration; I'm not going to lie to you. I can't play with my life...it's real out here, you know what I mean? And I would hate for somebody to get hurt and to mess up my career, and I'm just going in a positive direction right now, so I don't even want to play those type of games and see if that is true or not."

Zoe Kravitz is in full suport of The Hunger Games, as her dad Lenny is co-starring in the huge upcoming flick opening this Friday.  Check out pics of the rock heiress at last night's NYC screening, plus Nicole Richie looking great for her OCEAN DRIVE cover party inside...

At last night's Cinema Society & Calvin Klein Collection screening of The Hunger Games at SVA Theatre, Zoe rocked her usual cleaned up homeless chic look.  Still can't help but to love this chick.  Her dad Lenny Kravitz, who plays "Cinna" in the movie, wasn't there.  So she posed it up with "Whitney" star Zoe Lister Jones.

Interestingly, the main star of the movie, Jennifer Lawrence, commented on "Good Morning America" this AM that she and Zoe have been best friends for a while now.  And just weeks after Jennifer traveled to Paris with Lenny & Zoe and stayed at Lenny's house there, Jennifer found out they both got the film.

 

And down in Miami:

"Fashion Star" judge Nicole Richie stepped out for her OCEAN DRIVE magazine cover party at the Shelborne last night.  She looked fabulous in a nude dress with sheer snakeskin sleeves, suede burgundy Louboutin pumps and her own House of Harlow jewelry and "Marley" clutch:

She's been looking great these days.  The 30-year-old mom of two is covering the March 2012 digital issue of Ocean Drive magazine.

Sanna Lathan Kicks It With New "Boss" Co-Star T.I.+Drake Freestyles About Taking Weezy's Female Sloppy Seconds

Posted: 21 Mar 2012 05:19 AM PDT

T.I. & Sanaa Lathan have a new gig!  The hit Showtime series "Boss" will see Sanaa Lathan & T.I. joining the cast for season 2 kicking off soon.  We've got pics from their cast dinner, plus Drizzy's newest freestyle making the rounds where he's open about the women he & Weezy share...

Sanaa Lathan tweeted pics from the cast dinner in Chicago last night with her "Boss" co-stars T.I. & Rotimi (above left).  Rotimi has been on the show since its 2011 premiere.  And it seems T.I. will be making a special guest appearance in Season 2.  Sanaa will play the new obsession of Mayor Kane (played by Kelsey Grammar).

And Rotimi also recently posted a pic of he and T.I. on the set.  He said, "On set, just finished up our scene together. Me, my big brother @Tip & our acting manager Brian Sher. S/o @akooclothing #Boss." 

I tried to watch this show last season and just couldn't get into it.  But maybe it needs another chance with these cast additions.  Will you be watching?

 

And now that Drake has accomplished covering the STYLE BIBLE issue of GQ magazine, he spit a freestyle for the mag to celebrate as well.  But it's the few lines about the women & "b*tches" and not letting them mess up your life that are raising folks eyebrows.  And, unsurprisingly, he raps about being ok with taking Wayne's leftovers and them sharing women.  You know...it's what besties do.
 

A few of the lines:

"No love for these bitches I said this year it’s all business

It is a shame that a couple of ‘em are off limits

No offense to my n*gga, it’s just the industry is small

We all lust for the same women You know the ones we saw before we came in it

I know he aint trippin’ I know I got a couple things that Lil’ Wayne dipped in

Aint ashamed to admit it, I be the same with it."

Oh.  Bet I can guess a few of those women he's speaking of....

Romeo Miller Goes SHIRTLESS for BRAVE Magazine

Posted: 20 Mar 2012 03:12 PM PDT

Um, yes please!  Master P's son, Romeo Miller, is looking clean cut, sexy & very legal on the cover of BRAVE magazine.  Check out Mr. Miller dishing on the type of woman he wants on his arm, the industry & more inside...

The New Orleans native has acted in big screen films like Jumping The Broom, had his own show on Nickelodeon, made several small screen appearances, dropped a few rap records & even danced with the stars.  Romeo's grown up to be a handsome & driven man...and we love it.  (And since we know you're wondering--he's 22).

In the premiere digital issue of BRAVE magazine, he dished on his taste in women, what this industry has become--fame driven.  Highlights below:

On what it takes to be Romeo's girl

“I love a smart girl and a girl who loves her family! I do everything for my family and it’s nice to have somebody who understands how important that is to me. I can’t wait to have a little Romeo Bunch one day, haha. But, physically I love eyes. The eyes just say so much about someone. I also love nice curves and a woman who knows what she wants out of life. Someone with focus, determination and is God-fearing. My biggest turn-off is if a woman doesn’t have a real passion for something… and bad breath!"

On how the industry has transformed over the years

"I feel that the next generation is a lot younger and more talented. With technology you can now be your own record company, director, producer, etc. If you have talent you can display it on the Internet and the world will tell you their thoughts in the matter of seconds! Look at how many new artists have emerged from YouTube videos. Entertainment as a whole has changed, but what doesn’t change year after year? To be successful in this industry you have to learn to adapt. The business was different 10 years ago; people did it for the love and the feeling they get when they perform. Nowadays it’s more about the fame."

And in movies.......

 

Lenny Kravitiz, who stars in the upcoming huge blockbuster The Hunger Games, spoke to Celebuzz about his character, Cinna, whom many fans think is bisexual.

"I’ll be quite frank with you — I didn’t know about Hunger Games — so when I’m telling kids and they say, ‘Who are you playing?’ and I say Cinna, they go, ‘Oh you’re playing the gay guy.’ That was an actual answer. I’ve never brought that up yet. That’s how they perceived it. So I thought about it, and I read the book and I don’t see that he is or isn’t [gay]. He’s a designer, he’s a stylist, he has gold eyeliner—that doesn’t mean anything either way.”

His co-star, Elizabeth Banks (Effie), added,

 “I always read the Capitol as f—ked up pansexuality, everybody is doing everybody. Back to Greek and Roman times! It’s all happening.”

Lenny also revealed that he used a close friend as inspiration for the character.  

"I actually have a friend who is a dancer who is bisexual, and he was a lot of inspiration for my speech pattern and my rhythm, and kind of the way I sauntered in and out a little bit.”
