Joseline, Stevie J. & Diamond Do BLACK MEN Magazine + Tami Roman Flaunts Her New Body In Diet Ad Posted: 06 Jan 2013 07:40 AM PST Joseline tapped into her femininity for her the cover of the new issue of Black Men magazine.  And, of course, she's got Stevie J. all in the mix too.  Check their pics and Diamond's feature inside, plus Tami Roman's new diet ad...   The reality chicks and rappers are doing their usual of covering the pages of the booty mags.  First up, "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" stars Joseline & Stevie J. in Black Men mag.  Dare we say, Joseline actually looks...nice.  And we're kinda loving the last pic even.  We know....it's a shocker. Also featured in the new issue is rapper (and LAHH ATL star Scrappy's ex) Diamond.  Guess she's putting her T&A purchases (her ex's claims) to good use.       "Basketball Wives" star Tami Roman has branched out to start pushing diet aides.  And she's looking great these days. Besides starring in a new original comedy series, "Belles", premiering on January 21st and playing the character Loreta Cooper, Tami Roman is also starring in the newest NV Clinical Commercial. As their spokesperson, the 42-year-old busy mom, who recently quit smoking, didn't exercise regularly and she says her metabolism slowed down drastically. So Tami went the route of getting a healthy boost in weight loss and not a quick fix.   She admits, "I've tried to lose weight so many times, but I always gave up easily because the first two weeks are the hardest.  Everyone knows that I love food and can identify with my struggles. Once I tried NV Clinical and saw fast results the first week, it motivated me to keep pushing! Check out her brand new ad below: Looking good Tami!

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: "Love & Hip Hop 3" Star Joe Budden Dishes On New Girlfriend Kailyn, The "Love Triangle" And More Posted: 06 Jan 2013 06:17 AM PST TheYBF.com spoke exclusively to "Pump It Up" rapper Joe Budden about his upcoming role on the VH1's third season of "Love & Hip Hop."  And we wanted to know if working with his ex-Tahiry Jose is affecting his current relationship.  Find out what he said inside....   Rapper Joe Budden (shown atop with girlfriend Kailyn Garcia at this past Thursday night's premiere party in NYC), a Harlem native, who rose to fame with the hit "Pump It Up" and a popular series of web clips documenting various aspects of his life, is the among the new characters featured on season 3 of VH1's "Love & Hip Hop." If you're a fan of Joe, you know that the outspoken rapper is certainly not camera shy or coy when it comes to revealing the intimate details of his life on social media.  With a series of clips on YouTube and a string of posts on Twitter, he's consistently kept fans aware of who he's dating, who's he's beefing with and what he's thinking.  But that was when he was in control.... TheYBF.com spoke exclusively with Joe after Friday's premiere party for the show, to talk about his current relationship, how that's working out with him filming with his former girlfriend Tahiry Jose, and why's he's so open about sharing aspects of his personal life.  Here are the highlights:   Your girlfriend Kailyn was with you at the premiere party. What did she say to you after the party about your scenes with your ex Tahiry where you seemed to be trying to rekindle something with her. She didn’t say anything. There is nothing that I don’t share with her and she has a career as well. Was your girlfriend comfortable with you trying to reach out to Tahiry? Hell yeah. Me and Tahiry have an extensive history, albeit in a different capacity, but there’s never anything wrong with wanting a friendship with somebody that you were once friends with. My girl is pretty secure, more than you see in women, as far as exes go. We’re both like that. She speaks to her ex-boyfriends and I could care less. You trust the person you’re with. You don’t trust anyone else but you trust the person you’re with because you’re supposed to. L&HH is portraying you as being in a love triangle this season, were you aware of this before signing on? I don’t know if I’m in a love triangle. It’s very simple for me. I have my girlfriend who I am with daily and who I am very much in love with. I have my ex girlfriend who I love dearly and I have a friend. Just a friend. No intimacy, no dick-pussy exchange, nothing. Why have you always been so upfront with aspects of your life? Even relationships & breakups? I’m comfortable. I’m comfortable in my skin and that’s how it’s always been. That’s how I started music, that how I started writing. I don’t have very much to hide; I don’t have very many skeletons. And all the flaws I do have that people heard about, chances are they heard about it from me. Just call it being authentic, to me. You want to let people know who you are so they know to treat you accordingly. After seeing the last season of L&HH, did you have any reservations about doing the show? No, not at all. Joe Budden will be Joe Budden no matter where he is. With reality TV it’s their job to put you in certain situations and film your reactions, but I react well. I think this season will show a side to me that people don’t necessarily know to well. I’m 90% of the time calm cool and collected. Though the show appears to be focusing on your personal life, will we get a glimpse of Joe Budden the artist? Hopefully. Reality TV is all imagined but I can’t speak to what will be seen or won’t be seen. I know what I shot and I definitely shot scenes in the studio, and whether those will make the final cut is something highly different. To be honest, I don’t think people that watch reality TV give a fuck about the studio. I don’t think reality TV’s audience really cares about productivity.   So there you have it.  Fans of Joe Budden can keep up with him on Twitter & JoeBuddenTV.com

SPOTTED: Beyonce & Jay-Z Pop Up In The Bahamas Posted: 05 Jan 2013 12:33 PM PST   The camera phone stalkers were out in full force yesterday as Beyonce & Jay-Z popped up at the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas.  Peep pics of the Carters taking some vacay time inside... Beyonce led folks to believe she was still in frigid NYC yesterday when she posted herself chillin' last night--literally--in Midtown Manhattan.  But clearly those pics weren't taken yesterday as she and her hubby are currently vacationing in the Caribbean.  Same NYE wiggery and all. They were spotted at the Black Jack tables, then headed back to their room arm in arm.  And since their daughter Blue's 1st birthday is coming up, who knows where they'll be this coming Monday.   BONUS: Speaking of Bey's NYE wiggery, check out video of her doing a countdown into the new year on stage during her Wynn Las Vegas performance last week.   Pics: Twitter
