| Posted: 03 Feb 2013 09:08 AM PST We couldn't help but notice the uncanny resemblance rapper A$AP Rocky has to viral sensation Antoine Dodson. See the pic inside and decide if they were separated at birth..... We told you earlier about A$AP Rocky's hilarious appearance in the latest Alexander Wang ad, and at this point, we've gotten used to seeing his hair braided up. But after a throwback pic of A$AP's straightened hair appeared on Instagram recently, we were scratching our heads about who he reminded us of. Then all of a sudden, all we could hear in our heads was the voice of Antoine Dodson, who became a viral sensation after the "Bedroom Intruder Song" went worldwide. Now that we know Antoine can sing a little (with the help of Auto-Tune) maybe the two could get together for a remix?!  |
| MAGAZINE FAB: Keyshia Cole COVERS "UPSCALE" + Diamond SHINES For "Everything Girls Love" Posted: 03 Feb 2013 07:58 AM PST Keyshia Cole covers the latest issue of UPSCALE Magazine. See the cover inside and check out Diamond on the cover of EGL's digital issue. Keyshia Cole, who's still charting singles from her Woman to Woman disc covers the February 2013 issue of UPSCALE Magazine. In the cover pic, shot by Derek Blanks and styled by Olori Swank, she rocks a Helmut Lang Goat & Rabbit Fur coat (which could be yours for $1,895). Though we last spoke about Keyshia beefing with a few members of her family, it seems like she's in good spirits for this interview and focusing on love. Get the issue on a magazine rack near you or here.
And in other magazine news.... Rapper Diamond covers the latest digital issue of "EGL." We shared with you earlier that "Everything Girl's Love" is spearheaded and created by "L&HH" star Yandy Smith which raises an interesting question....will Diamond be featured on "L&HH ATL"? To answer that question for what she said was the millionth time, "No." Though she won't be sharing her life on reality tv, Diamond did discuss how being in the music business affects her friendships and relationships, if there will be a Crime Mob reunion (she hopes it will happen) her modeling work with Secret Kisses and her upcoming muscical projects. Read the full interview at EGL.  |
| Allen Iverson Is OFFICIALLY Divorced, BLASTED By Judge For Being an ALCOHOLIC And BAD PARENT Posted: 03 Feb 2013 07:48 AM PST Allen Iverson is now officially divorced from Tawanna Iverson, but a judge also "officially" blasted him for being an alcoholic and bad parent along the way. Find out what the judge said inside....
After a very long custody battle and extended divorce proceedings, Allen and Tawanna Iverson are officially free of each other, but the bruising battle put a lot of Allen's personal demons on display. In the final divorce decree, the judge blasted Allen for being an alcoholic and his bad parent skills. It said,
Because he doesn't know how to "parent" or simply isn't willing to own up to his demons, Tawanna now has legal and physical custody of the kids and Allen has limited visitation rights. And for the good of the family, Allen was ordered to attend counseling, join AA, stay away from drinking for 18 months and he has to refrain from drinking for 24-hours prior to visiting his kids (until they ALL turn 18-years-old). SMH.....those are actually great rules to follow for anyone who's a parent.

Frank Ocean has tweeted that he won't press charges against Chris Brown...in the spirit of forgiveness. Find out what he said inside and get Bobbi Kristina's thoughts on Cissy Houston's book about her mother.... We all know that Frank Ocean wears his emotions on his sleeve and doesn't mind sharing his thoughts about certain issues....so what does he really think about the Chris Brown brawl? He recently posted a response to his fans where he revealed that he'd take the high road and offer Chris forgiveness... We think Frank summed up the situation pretty accurately. It's time to forgive and move on. And also time for Chris to control his mood swings. Fans of Frank can catch him performing on the Grammys on February 10.
And in "other" responses..... Cissy Houston revealed to Oprah Winfrey last week that she doesn't have the best relationship with her granddaughter and now Bobbi Kristina is confirming that through a few tweets about her grandmother's new book. In an attempt to address fans and foes who'd like to know what Bobbi thinks about Cissy's book, Remember Whitney, Bobbi let it be known that both she AND Nick Gordon don't have anything to do with it and she thinks the book is disrespectful. Elsewhere on her timeline, Bobbi retweeted responses from her followers saying she had no reason to read the book because she was there and knows what really happened. It sounds like Bobbi Kristina brought her little anger towards Cissy into 2013. We hope they work that out.....

| Beyonce Takes REHEARSAL To The DOME + Rihanna HEADS To "Diamonds" Rehearsal Posted: 03 Feb 2013 06:06 AM PST Beyonce, who has been rehearsing at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, has posted a few BTS pics. See them inside and see new shots of Rihanna, who's rehearsing for her "Diamonds" tour. Beyonce has taken rehearsals for her upcoming Super Bowl halftime show down to the field at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, and shared a few of the pics via her Tumblr page. Beyonce stans will all be gathered around their tv sets later today to find out what Queen Bey's going to pull out of her hive of tricks. So what can we expect? We do know she'll be singing live, and it's been rumored that Destiny's Child will make an appearance (though Bey danced around that question at the Super Bowl press junket). We do know that Kelly is in town and Michelle is missing a few FELA! performances so.....maybe they'll hit the stage. Whatever happens....we're sure we will be pleasantly surprised.
In other rehearsals..... Rihanna posted a photo of herself riding in the car on the way to rehearsals for her "Diamonds" tour. She was joined by her bestie Melissa. Riri also posted a new pic, which is likely an outtake from a session with famed photographer Terry Richardson. She posted, "#dopedealershit @terryrichardsonstudio can't wait til you release your exclusive shit!!! Can't wait to do it again, you phucking rule bro" She also posted another flick for those who could use a "@rihannaoverdose"  |
| Posted: 02 Feb 2013 01:48 PM PST Ciara and Future haven't been discreet about all the time they've been spending together lately. So that must mean they're ready to take their love...well, major like...very public. Or maybe it's all for PR purposes since they are labelmates.
Check out the twosome partying it up with Big Boi inside, and Future's other chicks beefing on Twitter... Singer Ciara hasn't had the best luck with men. From her ex Bow Wow to 50 Cent who played her out to Knicks baller Amar'e Stoudemire who popped up engaged to someone else....she's due for something good. Apparently, she believes that good good is with rapper Future. The two ATL area natives have become more than just business colleagues after their remix collabos for "Turn On The Lights" & "Wake Up, No Makeup." Now they've been spotted on lunch dates, dinner dates and sharing googly eyes in the club. Last night, they went to Reign in Atlanta to celebrate the birthday of fellow ATLien Big Boi: They chilled in VIP away from the masses. Future recently gushed about CiCi in a radio interview saying:
Meanwhile, Ciara kept it cute in her varsity jacket and boots:
Big Boi and his gorge wife Sherlita made a pimpalicious entrance:
This fur though.... His mom came out to party. And Future and Ciara left together after the party. We'll see where this goes. Because with all Future's baby mama drama, it could be over in a jiffy....
A chick named Jessica has been reported to be his long time jumpoff for a while now. And it seems recently, she got a little in her feelings with Future's other alleged baby mama Brittani. She posted pics of things she bought him just to taunt her, and the two proceeded to go back in forth:
Meanwhile, Future hasn't publicly claimed either of them. Chile.... Somebody needs to turn OFF the lights on all this thirst-filled foolywangery.... Pics: Prince Williams/ATLPics.net, LosAngelesLeakers.com  |
| Lil' Kim HOSTS Launch DINNER For Tiffany Foxx With LisaRaye And Laura Govan Posted: 02 Feb 2013 10:30 AM PST Lil' Kim hosted a launch "dinner" in honor of her protege Tiffany Foxx which LisaRaye, Laura Govan and Lil' Mama attended. See photos inside.... Rap legend Lil' Kim was spotted shopping at the Christian Louboutin store in LA yesterday. Along with her stylist, Mr. Bradshaw, she showed that she still has a flair for expensive things.
And later that evening.... Kim headed over to BOA Steakhouse where she hosted a dinner for her protege Tiffany Foxx. The dinner was called "The Legend And Future" and served to put the world on notice that Kim thinks Tiffany is the next big thing. Boxer Suga Shane Mosley and Laura Govan posed for pics at the dinner. And a very pregnant Lola Monroe was also at the dinner. Others at the dinner included Frankie Finch, Bella Mafia, and Michelle Epps. Tiffany took the time to pose with each guest and we have to say that Lil' Mama is definitely stepping up her fashion game. Meanwhile, everyone seemed to take a pic touching Lola's belly. And LisaRaye wore white to the party....of course.

| CANDIDS: Jay-Z LIGHTS UP In New Orleans + Queen Latifah GETS A TICKET In LA Posted: 02 Feb 2013 10:08 AM PST Media mogul Jay-Z was seen smoking a cigar with Steve Stoute down in New Orleans yesterday. See the mogul lighting up inside and find out what surprise Queen Latifah found on her windshield in LA...
Down in New Orleans, Jay-Z was seen smoking cigars at the Mayan Import Co. with Steve Stoute yesterday. We're sure Jay is in town to support his wife, Beyonce, who's going to shut Super Bowl XLVII down tomorrow.
And in LA..... Queen Latifah was seen dining out and enjoying a salad with a friend. All was going well until she left the eatery in West Hollywood on Melrose Ave and discovered that her Ford Mustang was ticketed. She hugged her friend goodbye and later spoke to the parking officer who explained that she got a ticket because she was missing a front license plate.
We're sure she drove right over to the DMV to get that handled.
