| COUPLEDOM: Kanye & Kim And Dr. Dre & Nicole In London + NeNe & Gregg Hits The Streets In LA Posted: 10 Nov 2012 07:57 AM PST Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were spotted in London with the rest of the Kardashian clan recently. See pics of the family inside along with Dr. Dre and his wife Nicole also across the pond. Plus, NeNe Leakes and Gregg were spotted dining in LA. Camera-loving couple Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were spotted in London yesterday. Soaking up the camera flashes as usual. Kanye was out with the klan he hopes to make his future in-laws it seems. His girl just needs to get divorced first.... Kim looked chic in a revealing velvet catsuit while Ye kept it simple with jeans and a blazer. The couple has just finished dining at the ritzy Hakkasan restaurant for the second time this week in Mayfair with other members of the Kardashian family including Khloe, Kourtney and Scott Disick.
After the dinner, the entire family walked into Sainsbury grocery store and walked up and down the aisles as if there were on a field trip! We guess they were cruising for late night snacks...
Also in London...... Dr. Dre and his wife Nicole Threatt also took some time away from LA and jetted across the pond. The fab couple was in town to promote the new line of Beats by Dr. Dre headphones and to find the stars of the next Beats Solo HD TV commercial.
And Nicole showed how "supportive" she is for her husband's business ventures by posing for one of the promo billboards. Sweet! The couple later partied at the Rose Club in London's West End.
And in LA..... NeNe Leakes was spotted leaving BOA Steakhouse with "ex" husband Gregg and son Brentt. She said in recent interviews and on this new season of "RHOA" that she's enjoying her "ex-husband's" company. NeNe really seems to enjoy the LA life, so maybe her and Gregg can start over and give their marriage another try. It would make for a nice BRAVO spinoff. Hmmm....
The Randomness: 1. The Braxtons are pitching a daytime talk show. Story.

Comedian Katt Williams got hit with a $5 million lawsuit for allegedly hitting his female assistant. Get the deets inside.....
Having already seen his fair share of lawsuits, comedian Katt Williams was just hit with another one for allegedly hitting and injuring his female assistant. Melissa Ishage filed a $5 million lawsuit, according to TMZ, with the L.A. County Superior Court recently claiming Katt attacked and punched her causing "serious and permanent injuries." Damn...did she not bring him his comb quickly enough? Melissa, who sought treatment at a hospital, says the cops were called but no one was arrested. For now, the incident is still under investigation. Neither Katt nor his reps have spoken out about the lawsuit. Foolishness indeed.

| Posted: 09 Nov 2012 06:30 PM PST All kinds of surprises hit the red carpet of the 2012 Soul Train Awards last night in Las Vegas. From "106 & Park" hosts Shorty Da Prince & Paigion finally confirming their couple-status to Lil Mama making a head turning entrance (in a good way) to blasts from the past like Karyn White & Jody Watley.
We've got all the red carpet arrivals inside....
Well this explains why they ran a collabo internet campaign to become the newest hosts of BET's "106 & Park." Shorty Da Prince & Paigion have been a couple for years, as we've learned from sources who have known them at their past job. And last night, at PH Live at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino at the Awards show, they put their coupledom on display for the first time. The twosome were boo'd up on the carpet and at the show all night....and made it known they have indeed been a couple for a while. Interesting.
Paigion, in a contour leather sleeved dress from Zara, kicked it backstage with rapper Lil Mama. And dare we say it....we had to do a double take! Chick stepped her game ALL the way up:
Maybe it's the new blonde hair or good makeup (finally) or appropriate grown-up strapless gown she's wearing that's softened her look...but chick looks great. Mad props to her styling team. Hope she keeps it up! Another blonde bombshell last night was Keyshia Cole. She rocked her ankle strap Charlotte Olympia heels with a little black one-sleeved cut-out Alexander Wang dress. Nice look for her. Miguel brought Nazanin Mandi, his long time model girlfriend, along on the carpet with him.
Hey New Edition.
Faith Evans looked fab in a white front slit long sleeved dress with embellished shoulders. Wish she would have worn sandals to soften the look even more. John Legend was flying solo as his fiance Chrissy was off shooting an ad campaign. Fantasia has been working out extra hard these days. So she showed off her new bod on the carpet last night. She could have done without the tights in Vegas and been a little more revealing instead of church lady, but she looks good nonetheless.... The newly engaged "Vampire Diaries" star Kat Graham kept it extra colorful as always in a floral one shoulder dress with a sexy mile-high slit. Melanie Fiona was on trend with a mini lace white dress from Isabel Marant and a pair of extra hot Versace gold booties. She paired her look with a vintage eel skin clutch. Elle Varner kept it chic in a black & white peplum dress. Ben Vereen looked like he was off to the Big Top. Ne-Yo was on hand to promote his R.E.D. album. Luke James kept it dapper in his tailored look and bowtie. Debra Lee is still pulling from her daughter's closet we see. Angie Stone has been looking great even years after her stint on "Celebrity Fit Club." If only she could have chosen a better look for the formal occasion. Estelle rocked a textured one sleeved black mini dress. We're not mad at it. Olympic gold medal swimmer Cullen Jones made his way to the carpet. Jimmy Jam flew solo on the carpet. Bill Bellamy brought his wife of over 10 years, Kristen. Cute couple. Eric Benet was getting his sexy Prince-like stare on. Kenny Lattimore was there looking like he doesn't age.
SWV looked fab for the red carpet appearance. Loving that the ladies are still in the mix. Alesha Renee tapped into her animalistic mood. MC Lyte proved she doesn't age either. Work. Loving Goapele's chic white jumpsuit. Perfect metallic belt and shoes to pair. Elise Neal must have found Toni Braxton's old "Unbreak My Heart" video dress.
Jody Watley is still fierce. Karyn White is still a diva. The original "Superwoman" donned a young look for the carpet as she promoted her upcoming comeback album, Carpe Diem.
Anthony Hamilton hit the carpet. Marsha Ambrosius rocked a leather pencil skirt and cute Varsity jacket for the carpet. And TGT was 2/3 complete--Tank & Ginuwine hit the STA's but Tyrese was missing. Looking good fellas. Pics: Getty The Randomness: 1. Halle Berry lost her custody battle to bring Nahla to Paris with her & fiance Olivier. Nahla wil have to stay in the USA. 2. Maia Campbell is set to appear on Iyanla's "Fix My Fallen Star" show on OWN soon. STORY

Kelly's ex) and Sheree Fletcher (Will Smith's ex) were joined by their new castmember and on screen bestie Daphne Wayans (Keenan Ivory Wayans) for lunch at Cuvee Restaurant in Beverly Hills, CA yesterday (pictured above).

Frank Ocean may be the fashion industry's next hip hop muse as he was seen hanging out with Karl Lagerfeld at a Chanel event in Paris recently.

And on the November 12th pisode of "Gossip Girl," which is in its last season on the CW, the show will be featuring 5 of Frank's Channel Orange tracks throughout the show. It's the first time an episode of the stylish drama will feature the music of one artist exclusively, and it also marks the first time that Frank’s music will be heard in a television series. Congrats!
And in other fashion news.... John Legend's fiance Chrissy Teigen was spotted shooting an ad for Nike in Miami yesterday. She stars alongside actor and comedian J.B. Smoove ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") while rocking a peach bikini.
We're not sure how the ad will turn out but Chrissy tweeted, 'There are tall people involved." Observant isn't she.... The Randomness: 1. Someone needs to call Olivia Pope. CIA Director Gen. Patraeus has resigned...because of an extra-marital affair! STORY Photos via Ohpix/Bauer Griffin  |

Alicia is prepping to release her new album Girl On Fire (November 27). So she's dropping her new music for her fans off the LP. The newest is the studio version of "Brand New Me."

Azealia is still dropping plenty of visuals for her tracks off her Fantasea mixtape. "Fierce" is the latest and it's just her and a leather couch having some fun. The ASOS model looks to be wearing plenty of the British-based clothing company's threads during the vid as their logo pops up at the end. You feeling Harlem's sharp tounged feisty chick?  |
