| SPOTTED: Jennifer Hudson GRUBBING On Pizza And Snacks, Posted: 17 Nov 2012 08:16 AM PST Weight Watchers spokewoman Jennifer Hudson tweeted a pic of herself grubbing on pizza and other snacks while filming a commercial recently. See the pics of Jen celebrate the benefits of her weight loss regimen inside......
Jennifer Hudson is back on the hard stuff! The famously slimmed down actress recently tweeted a pic of herself eating pizza and other snacks while taking a break from filming a Weight Watchers commercial in LA. But fans shouldn't be concerned about Jen going back to her old weight because she is still repping for the company, even wearing her Weight Watchers ActiveLink activity monitor when she performed the GRAMMY tribute for the late Whitney Houston (which aired on CBS last night). At this point in her life, Jen is all about maintenance and a healthy lifestyle. She is no longer trying to lose weight, so she's all about portion control and moderation. In the 2012 December issue of Redbook she told the mag, "I’m at the weight I want to be." She added, "But I hear all the time, "Don’t lose any more weight, you need to stop." People are under the impression that I’m still losing but I’m not.' Next up for Jen, she'll perform at this year’s Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway on December 11th.
Check out the full Whitney Houston tribute above.

| MUSIC FAB: Rihanna's "Diamonds" (Remix) Featuring Kanye West, PHOTOS From The "777" Tour Posted: 16 Nov 2012 04:09 PM PST While she jets all over the world for her "777" tour, Rihanna tapped Kanye West to put the G.O.O.D. Music touch to her "Diamonds" (Remix). Listen to the track inside and see pics of Rihanna on stage.
On the latest remix for Rihanna's "Diamonds" (Remix), Kanye West blesses the track as he raps about the Illuminati, high society, and parking his whip outside of the Louvre Museum. He also shouts out to the survivors of Hurricane Sandy. The hit single is the lead track off the Unapologetic disc that's set to hit stores around the world on Monday.
Listen to the track here:
And around the world......
We told you previously about Rihanna taking a gang of fans and press on a private plane for the "777" tour and it looks like they (and the Ace of Spades champagne) truly shined bright in the sky. RiRi even gifted each guest with a real diamond. So far the tour has stopped in Mexico City and Toronto. Next up...Stockholm!

| Posted: 16 Nov 2012 11:39 AM PST Chamique Holdsclaw, a former WNBA star, has been jailed for allegedly firing a bullet into the window of her former girlfriend's car and smashing the car's windows. Get the deets on the situation inside...... Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...and WNBA Tulsa Shock player Jennifer Lacy (far left) found out the hard way. It's been revealed that Jennifer had been involved with former Atlanta Dream player Chamique Holdsclaw (center) for nearly four years, but their relationship soured last year. Here's what reportedly went down: On Tuesday, Jennifer and Chamique bumped into each other at the gym and exchanged small talk. Sources say Jennifer is the one who ended the relationship and Chamique had not been handling it well. As Jennifer was leaving the gym, she noticed that Chamique (who battles clinical depression and attempted suicide in 2006) was following her Range Rover so she drove to a friend's house. Once they arrived, Chamique hopped out of her car with a baseball bat and began to smash the windows of Jennifer's Range Rover. Afterwards, she took out a gun and fired a round into the truck before hopping back in her own car and speeding off. After the incident, Jennifer says Chamique desperately tried to contact her but she didn't respond because she feared for her life. Following the car attack, a warrant was issued for Chamique's arrest and she turned herself in on Thursday to the Fulton County Police Dept in Atlanta. Her bail was set at $10,000 on 3 charges: Aggravated Assault, Criminal Damages & Reckless Conduct. News of the arrest sent shockwaves through the sporting community with many folks offering support to Jennifer and shaking their heads at Chamique (who also played on the gold medal-winning 2000 Olympic team). Jennifer issued a statement through the Tulsa Shock saying, "I want to thank my family, friends, fans and Shock family for their concern during this difficult time. I have never felt more love from my fans in supporting me." And a source close to Jennifer adds, "She really hopes that Chamique gets the help she needs." Chamique was released from jail on Friday and now has to wear an ankle monitor. She was ordered NOT to contact Jennifer Lacy and is now facing 2 counts of aggravated assault, 2 counts of damaging property and 1 count of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. She heads back to court on Nov. 30. Drama!

| Posted: 16 Nov 2012 09:59 AM PST Rapper Nicki Minaj stars in a beautifully shot commerical for her "Pink Friday" fragrance. Watch the ad inside and see promo clips from the upcoming season of "American Idol" with Nicki in her new role. And Mariah doing what she does best... Nicki Minaj has released a commerical for her "Pink Friday" fragrance and it will surely send the bottles flying off shelves for the holidays. In the 30-sec clip, a blond-wigged Nicki is shown lying on a bed of black roses. But as a thorn pricks her finger and she begins to bleed a "pink" liquid onto the bed, the roses suddenly burst with color, her body turns gold and her eyes turn pink. How Nicki of her... Visually, the clip is pretty stunning. She described the scent saying,
The "Come On A Cone" rapper will be celebrating the launch of her debut fragrance, with a special personal appearance at Macy's Queens Center in Queen, NY (where Nicki was raised) on Tuesday, November 20th, at 3:30 pm EST. She plans to greet 200 lucky fans (who spend at least $65) and sign autographs. Watch the ad here:
In other Nicki news and promos..... The folks over at FOX have strung together two promos for the much-hyped upcoming season of "American Idol" with Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey and Keith Urban as the new judges. In one scene, Nicki tells a contestant that her cotton candy colored wig is edible....and we believe her. And from looking at the promos, Nicki comes across fresh and funny. Will she prove her critics wrong and turn out to be a strong addition to the show? We doubt it....but Nicki is good for surprises. The new season of "AI" kicks off on January 16 on FOX.  |
