Chris Brown worked his way into Supperclub in L.A. last night.  And it was an uneventful, non-love triangle drama filled night.  For once.  Pics of the singer inside...

Breezy loves to party.  And the "Don't Judge Me" crooner rocked his Ice Cream jacket, jeans and his Jordans for another night at the club with his boys.  He hit up Supperclub for a fun night out:

Nicki Minaj went for an interesting fashion choice last niht for her dinner date with friends in L.A.  Check out the yellow turtle neck wearing rapstress inside....

She and SB and friends hit BOA Steakhouse last night as Nicki gears up for tonight's big premiere of "American Idol" Season 12. 

Her pre-taped interview with Ellen also aired yesterday.

Nicki complained about the "long" work hours --because she's not used to working for 8-10 hours a day--on the "Idol" set. Guess she thought someone was supposed to just hand her several million dollars to do the face making and voice changing for an hour or so on a stage like usual. She also talked about why the feud between her and Mariah began, and the shade she felt from day 1.

She also said she's not ready for the live tapings because she doesn't trust her mouth. "I don't want everybody to think I'm a crazy psycho."

less dope.”

On giving advice

“No one gave me advice. I had to figure all this out myself and I thought it was the best thing that
could’ve ever happened to me. I’m even more prepared now because of all the mess ups, all the bull,
and all the wrong decisions that have brought me to this point.

Check out Dawn's full cover story HERE.

Meanwhile, Keri Hilson was spotted arriving to LAX today looking laid back.  Not sure what she's been up to but we haven't seen her much in a while:

WHERE ARE THEY NOW: Remember Kriss Kross? The So So Def Kids Now Look Like....

Rappers Kris Kross reunited for a special appearance at the So So Def Anniversary 20th Anniversary Press Conference in Atlanta recently. See pics from the press conference inside....

Rappers Kris Kross (Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly and Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith) are all grown up now and wearing their clothes the right way nowadays.  The duo made a rare appearance in Atlanta earlier today at a press conference in Atlanta honoring the 20th anniversary of So So Def Records. 

Founded by Jermaine Dupri, So So Def helped establish Atlanta as the mecca for R&B and Hip Hop music in the 90s with Kris Kross leading the way. And everybody was jumping around trying to rap fast just like these kids.

Although the group has not recorded since their 1996 album Young, Rich & Dangerous, they will be returning to the spotlight for a special So So Def All-Star Anniversary Concert on February 23 at the Fox Theater in Atlanta.

 

The Anniversary Concert will be preceded by a series of events, including a private VIP dinner, a star-studded Anniversary party and a pre-concert reception. A 20-song “Best of So So Def” compilation CD is also in the works for a June release.

Founder Jermaine Dupri was honored at the press conference by Mayor Kasim Reed where legendary So So Def performers Xscape, Kris Kross, Da Brat, Jagged Edge, Bonecrusher, Dem Franchize Boyz and Dondria celebrated.

ENGAGED! Kandi Burruss Gets A Ring From Producer Boyfriend Todd!

Kandi's got herself a husband...almost.  Her boyfriend Todd Tucker proposed and the twosome have just confirmed their engagement!  Deets inside..

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kandi Burruss and boyfriend--tv producer Todd--are set to walk down the aisle soon.  After "that man moved into the house" (in our Riley voice), it was a only a matter of time before Todd popped the question to take their relationship even further.

After rumors swirled today that the two were engaged, Kandi gave the exclusive to Us Weekly confirming that it's indeed true.

39-year-old Todd proposed on New Year's Eve at a party in Atlanta with friends. All of the couple's reality star and ATL friends were in tow.

And by the way, Todd got Kandi's 10-year-old daughter Riley's blessing before asking for Kandi's hand in marriage.  And he slid a two carat diamond on his bride-to-be's ring finger.

Kandi, who was engaged once before to the now late A.J. Jewell, said about the news:

"I was totally surprised.  I used to make jokes with my friends that I [was] part of the Forever Single Club.  That's what I said before, but now I'm totally different."

The twosome met on the set of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" during filming of the South Africa trip last season.  And 36-year-old Kandi also says they plan to have kids together once they're married.

Well isn't that special.  Congrats!

LOCKED UP: Chief Keef BUSTED For Parole Violation

17-year-old rapper Chief Keef is currently in custody for a parole violation. Find out the deets inside...

 

Rapper Chief Keef is locked up in Chicago after violating probation stemming from a January 2012 case...where he pointed a gun at a cop.

The "I Don't Like" rapper previously received 18 months probation and was ordered to stay away from firearms....but that didn't happen.  Last June, the rapper was seen visiting a gun range in NYC in a promotional video that has since been removed from Pitchfork.com.

He was taken out of court on Tuesday in handcuffs and is due back on Thursday for a sentencing hearing.  His manager tweeted,

SMH...with managers like these....

We'll keep you posted on the sentencing.

OFFICIALLY AXED: Oxygen CONFIRMS Shawty Lo's "All My Babies' Mamas" Will NOT Air

Posted: 15 Jan 2013 03:19 PM PST

Photobucket

There have been a few confusing rumors since yesterday.  One Oxygen source telling the Daily Beast that Shawty Lo's "All My Baby Mamas" has gotten the axe, and another source telling Rumor Fix that the show is still in production.  But this evening, the Oxygen network themselves has put out the official statement that the show has indeed been pulled.

 

Deets inside...

Things looked pretty bleak for Shawty-Lo, Ecreia, and the rest of the baby mama's after The Daily Beast reported that Oxygen had caved to pressure from organizer Sabrina Lamb and the more than 36,000 people who signed her petition demanding Oxygen yank "All My Babies' Mamas" from its lineup.  Then, Oxygen denied the cancellation.

Though they were definitely dancing around the issue, Oxygen told RumorFix:

“That rumor is simply untrue. The project remains in early development." They added, the show "... is not meant to be a stereotypical representation of everyday life for any one demographic or cross section of society.”

But just moments ago, Oxygen gave a final official statement to The Grio saying NO to Shawty Lo....and all his babies mamas.  Here's their words:

“As part of our development process, we have reviewed casting and decided not to move forward with the special.  We will continue to develop compelling content that resonates with our young female viewers and drives the cultural conversation.”

We have a feeling Shawty Lo may not know yet as we're told by one of his PR people that the rapper was "sick" at home today.  And his team still was under the impression...as of a few hours ago...that the show was still a go. This surely won't make him feel any better.

It's a WRAP for "All My Babies Mamas"...before it even hit the air.

"VERY RICH": Amber Rose BUMPS The The Meter In L.A. + Nene Leakes CAUGHT Showing Her ASSets In Ripped Leggings

Posted: 15 Jan 2013 11:20 AM PST

Photobucket

Two "rich" ladies, Amber Rose and Nene Leakes, were spotted out handling their business (and exposing it as well) in L.A. yesterday.  See the ladies inside...

Photobucket

Amber Rose, who looks like she's about to pop any second now, was spotted feeding the meter in L.A. yesterday. She joked about gaining weight on Twitter saying, "I'm finally getting a Lil chunky going into my last month of pregnancy...Better now then in those first couple months #Chunkydonkymonkey"

Photobucket

Later, she was spotted leaving a nail salon in West Hollywood after a quick touch-up.

Photobucket

While her black leggings revealed a pair of pink and black undies, it was her pink leather jacket with the word "RICH" on the back that really made a statement.  We guess Wiz's "ONIFC" album sales and tour dates are keeping the couple set up pretty nicely. 

Photobucket

We're sure Amber is going home to put her feet up and rest.  She tweeted that she doesn't do housework anymore, "Our cleaning ladies are the shit! If it wasn't 4 them our house wld look crazy cuz my big ol tired self ain't cleaning nutten. ;-) "

Not mad at that....

Also in Hollywood....

Photobucket

Small screen starlet Nene Leakes was seen leaving a gas station after fillling up on a few treats.

Photobucket

Inside, the original "Very Rich" chick was spotted on the snack aisle trying to make a decision on what to pick up. 

And we hope her richness will buy her a new pair of leggings because these mugs are beyond their last leg. The paps will always get that moment when you show your ass...accidentally.

Meanwhile, NeNe's gearing up for another season of "The New Normal."
