| Posted: 30 Nov 2012 08:52 AM PST After a big Cinderella style 13th birthday party, Toya Carter threw her cutie of a 14-year-old, Reginae, a classic skate party in Atlanta. And all her friends and fam, including her papa Lil Wayne, Lauren London & Nivea and their kids, the OMG Girlz, Rasheeda, Kandi and plenty more, came out to celebrate.
Pics inside... It was another big family affair for Reginae Carter's 14th birthday yesterday. Lil Wayne's ex-wife and baby mamas seem to have become good friends over the years, so it was nothing new for Toya Wright, Lauren London & Nivea to hang out like old times at Nae's skate party last night. But it was Nae's daddy Weezy who showed up to make her night, of course. Cute Saints themed cake. Toya's girls Sheneka Adams, Danielle and more posed it up with the birthday girl. Reality stars Rasheeda & Kandi were there of course. Rasheeda brought Kirk and the whole fam, and Kandi brought daughter Riley. Nae's besties Zonnique, Lo and the OMG Girlz were all there to have some fun. Cute gals.
Weezy brought YMCMB rapper Lil Chuckee to the party. And Nae's stepdad Memphitz was spotted skating it up. And sent her a sweet tweet yesterday morning:
Awww. Sarah's (not pictured) son Baby Tunie was at the party skating around with Toya. And Weezy's mom Ms. Cita was spotted skating with one of her grandsons Neal. And if a big celeb filled skate party wasn't enough, Reginae copped a brand new cute pup for another birthday gift as well. Happy B-day! Pics: Instagram

| Daniel "Bobbie" Gibson Expresses His LOVE For Wife Keyshia Cole With A TATTOO Of Her FACE! Posted: 30 Nov 2012 08:07 AM PST NBA baller Daniel "Boobie" Gibson proved his devotion to his wife, songstress Keyshia Cole by inking the singer's face on his arm. See his new tattoo inside.....
With her Woman to Woman disc sitting comfortably on the Billboard R&B Charts at #2, Keyshia Cole is also sitting comfortably on the arm of her husband Daniel "Bobbie" Gibson. Daniel, who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers, recently inked Keyshia's face on his arm and Keyshia tweeted, “And I loooooooove my baby! (My voice).” We now these two love their tatts and all...but when will this tatt-of-faces trend end?
Bonus: Keyshia Cole took to her Twitter account recently to address the circulation of a photo that shows a woman (who looks like Keyshia) performing oral sex. Because the woman in the pic had blond hair and a tattoo on her left arm, it did look like it could be Keyshia...but clearly it's not. Keyshia addressed the photo yesterday saying, After her first tweet, Keyshia returned to share that the false photo was sent to her husband.
At this point, there's no question that the woman in the pic WAS NOT Keyshia as a Twitter user @RedHeadMari has come forward and confessed that it was HER in the pic and her ex-boyfriend leaked it. She even apologized to Keyshia saying,
Foolery...  |
| Posted: 30 Nov 2012 07:29 AM PST Kimora Lee Simmons is back in the reality saddle. And this time, she's making it more business than personal. Get the deets and first promo pic (above) from "House of Fab", plus rumor control on "R&B Divas" casting news.... Newly single Kimora has confirmed she's moving on with her newest reality show. It's called "Kimora: House of Fab" and she dished to WWD what it's all about:
The show tapes at the JustFab.com Manhattan Beach, CA offices, as she's the current President & Creative Director of the shoe company. She dished on the decision to make this series more business-focused than her previous "Life In The Fab Lane" series:
She tweeted a pic of herself filming some confessionals for the show. And there will be eight 1-hour long episodes. The show will premiere Jan. 23 at 9 p.m. on the Style Network. We'll be watching...
The "R&B Divas" are prepping their next season of drama on TV One. And earlier this week, we posted that sites were reporting that two new divas--Angie Stone & Sunshine Anderson--were asked to join the cast. It was also reported that Faith was not returning. A member of the executive production team now tells TheYBF.com the deal. "I'm not sure who [those sites] got that info from, the info is not accurate," the source tells us. "Our team (the producers and network) is still having ongoing dialog about Season 2 Atlanta. There have been NO offers made to any new ladies at this time. Faith Evans is still a part of the cast. But as for Nicci, she's still axed from the cast, as we previously reported.

| FLAUNTING IT? Rihanna Posts Photo KISSING Chris Brown Posted: 30 Nov 2012 06:28 AM PST Rihanna has posted a photo showing her kissing the head of a man who bears a striking resemblance to Chris Brown. So we're gonna go with the fact it's him, despite his face not being shown. See the controversial pic inside.....
Last night, Chris Brown's 'Carpe Diem' European tour rolled through Frankfurt, Germany and was such a success that he got a congratulatory kiss from a very special "friend." This must have been where she was off to after recovering from sickness earlier this week and leaving her London hotel at 2AM. Rihanna posted a photo of herself kissing the pop star's forehead and said.....
Though they seem to be taking baby steps toward easing the public into what seems to be a rekindling of their relationship, fans across the world are surely going to have their own opinions about their display of friendship. And since they seem to hate people commenting on their business...why flaunt it on the WORLD wide web? Just wondering. Speak on it...your thoughts?  |

| Fantasia POPS OFF On Baby's Daddy Antwaun's Family...After She Shows They're STILL Together Posted: 29 Nov 2012 03:09 PM PST Fantasia has some words for everybody that has a problem with her still (apparently) being with Antwaun Cook--the man she had a child with while he was still married to his wife Paula.
So check out how she popped off on a member of his family on Instagram...and flaunted a pic of the twosome spending Thanksgiving together... So we're still doing this apparently. While most of us thought Antwaun and Fantasia were done for good after her suicide scare, pregnancy and getting sued by his wife, things apparently are still poppin' in South Carolina. After receiving some scathing messages from an alleged aunt of Antwaun, she posted the above pic of she and 'Twaun cuddled up on Thanksgiving saying, "RUN and TELL THAT." The messages written by Vickie Henry caused Antwaun to delete all his social media accounts, but Fanny stil had some things to say, like telling her to come to her house and confront her "woman to woman." She also said Antwaun's family likes to smile in her face when they come see their son Dallas, but talks mess behind her back about "how many pics Antwaun is given of his son."
Sigh. Meanwhile, Fanny posted these pics of Antwaun with Dallas at a b-ball game and her with her daughter Zion all right before the situation:
She said: "Thank You!!! You Always support Us....Blue Hair, Sunny Day, kids Fam and MY LOVE.. Cant get any better" The drama continues... Pics: Instagram

Azealia Banks stars in the new ASOS Christmas campaign and covers their "Fashion Up" January 2013 issue. See the pics inside and watch tv's newest reality tv diva Kenya Moore (looking stunning in yellow by the way) chat with Wendy Williams about everything we've been wondering about....
Kenya Moore stopped by "WENDY" this morning to dish on her love life, her RHOA fights and about Wendy shading her about her skin. Last week, Wendy made some comments about Kenya wearing a lot of makeup to cover up her "bad skin," and Kenya admitted to having breakouts sometimes. But honestly, chick is absolutely gorgeous with a bangin' body so if that's people's only complaint... When Wendy asked her how she felt about being described as a mean girl, Kenya said "I can say this, I don't play for the cameras. What you see is who I am, but I have to say I think the mean girl reputation is not deserved." Really? She added that she would never tear another black woman down. Aside form those "Coochie Crack" screams... She did reveal her distaste for fellow castmate Porsha Stewart. And can we blame her? Kenya threw a few verbal jabs at Porsha about being naive but the big kicker was when she said she felt Porsha was single handedly ruining the legacy of her grandfather, civil rights leader Hosea Williams. Oh, and that Porsha is playing the 20-something card when she's actually 31. Womp. Kenya added that while Porsha is riding the coattails of her husband and her late grandfather, Kenya herself is a girl from Detroit who built herself from the ground up. "Some people work for a living, and some people twerk for a living." DOUBLE WOMP. Wendy also talked about the "possible" storyline of Kenya trying to make a move on Phaedra Parks' husband Apollo. Of course, Kenya didn't reveal anything, but she did encourage fans to stay tuned and to NOT believe what Phaedra's been saying. Watch the clip above with Kenya telling Wendy to check her roots to prove she's rocking her real hair.
In other interviews..... We told you previously about Twitter-beefing rapper Azealia Banks hooking up with ASO,S and now we have the remaining final photos from her "Fashion Up" cover shoot and Christmas campaign for the clothing company (one of our faves). "Fashion Up," an entertainment mag available for download on the iPhone and iPad, caught up with Azealia as she finishes her debut album and talked about her music, her fashion and how she created her image. Here are the highlights:
Azealia stars in the ASOS #bestnightever holiday campaign with singer Ellie Goulding and model Charlotte Free.
Loves it.
BONUS: Singers Jordin Sparks and Jason Derulo sat down with Wendy Williams for their first interview as a couple yesterday morning. The adorable pair talked about how they met and revealed it wasn't love at first sight. Jordin said, "We both did a show in Bahamas last year…and it was awesome but we met each other before but we just saw each other in passing. He invited me to the after party." And from that moment, sparks began to fly. Jason revealed that he just bought his huge dream home in Miami and Jordin will def have a place for "her things" there. Not mad at that. Jordin also touched on a special moment with Whitney Houston on the set of Sparkle where the legendary diva offer her words of encouragement that made her burst into tears. Watch the clip above....

| SPOTTED: Eve Making Her Rounds In NYC, Dishes On Interracial Relationship Posted: 29 Nov 2012 11:18 AM PST We haven't seen Eve out and about in a while. But the rapstress was spotted leaving out of the Trump Soho Hotel in NYC yesterday as she headed out to do a few appearances. And if you're wondering if she's looking a bit thicker than usual, we were wondering the same thing. Check out the pics, plus our pregnancy suspicions inside... Eve was spotted around NYC yesterday without her longtime boyfriend Maximillion. She rocked a cozy down coat and her black & red starred Givenchy bag while leaving her hotel on the way to an interview with Sway on MTV's RapFix, a radio interview with Hot 97, and then to the studio to work on her music.
Maybe it's just us, but chick (who is rocking new bangs) seems rounder and thicker than usual...and was mighty adamant about blocking her midsection from the flashing lights of the paparazzi.
Hmmm. We checked out what she's been up to lately to see if we could get any clues, and recently, she appears to have downed a few martinis at a friend's birthday party:
If she was drinking at all...it very well could have been non-alcoholic. But who knows. We'll keep her off of Preggers Watch...for now. BONUS: Check out Eve's first VIDDY vid she recorded from the studio last night:
And check out Eve on Hot 97 giving up the goods about her relationship with the extremely rich Maximillion Cooper:

| Posted: 29 Nov 2012 09:53 AM PST Nicki Minaj launched her "Pink Friday" fragrance Down Under and made an appearance at the 2012 ARIA Awards today. Peep her wacky outfits inside and find out about Steven Tyler apologizing for his comments about her. Hours ago (since Australia is 14 hours ahead of the East Coast here in the States), Nicki Minaj appeared on stage at the Entertainment Centre in Sydney, Australia for the 2012 ARIA (The Australian Recording Industry Association Music) Awards. At this point we've come to expect Nicki to wear something...interesting...and her psychedelic fringe dress and leggings did not disappoint. She looks like a shedding pelican though.
And that wasn't the only wacky outfit down under for Nicki...... Earlier in the day, the Barb launched her "Pink Friday" fragrance at Myer Sydney City while looking like a quilted doll. She tweeted:
She blew tons of kisses and made her signature faces as fans and Barbz snapped photos of their leader. Really wondering where this dress came from...or if it's several kiddie comforters sewn together.
In other Nicki news..... Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler has responded about Nicki Minaj taking offense to his comments about her being and "Idol" judge. He told Canada's eTalk,
Although we never thought Steven's comments were racist, it's great to see him apologize for possibly being offensive.
