| BIRTHDAY FAB: T.I. & Fam CELEBRATE Daughter Deyjah's 12th BIRTHDAY! Posted: 17 Jun 2013 08:27 AM PDT Over the weekend, T.I.'s cutie patootie daughter Deyjah turned 12-years-old with a fun-filled celebration attended by family and the OMG Girlz. See pics from the festivities inside... T.I. and Miss Niko threw a cute party in Atlanta for their daughter Deyjah, who turned 12-years old. She's growing up fast and is such a cutie. And she's her mom's mini me.
T.I., who'll be hitting the road with Lil' Wayne and 2 Chainz this summer for the America's Most Wanted Tour was front and center for his baby girl's bowling party. Miss Deyjah got tons of designer gifts and fancy handbags....but looks severly unimpressed. Ha!
She had some fun with her brothers King, Messaiah & Domani and big sis Zonnique. And in addition to being an accomplished ballerina, Deyjah was gifted a camera from T.I. and has been named the family's official photographer! Cute. Gotta love "The Family Hustle" fam.
And T.I. revealed to FreddyO that King and Domani are in the studio working on projects of their own. Of course.
Deyjah's grandmother Violeta Morgan was there to wish her grandbaby a happy birthday.
Also, Deyjah's sister Zonnique and the OMG Girlz were there with their Kool-Aid colored wiggery (at least we hope it's wigs). Happy birthday Deyjah!

| Posted: 17 Jun 2013 07:11 AM PDT Rapper Big Sean and her girlfriend, actress Naya Rivera kissed and smooched on the MMVA red carpet this weekend. See their pics inside and check out "RHOA" stars Cynthia Bailey, Nene Leakes and Christina Milian at the Miss USA Pageant. Nope, it's not the waif-y wax statue version Kim & Kanye...if you thought your eyes were decieving you. Since revealing their "couple status" a few months ago, "Glee" star Naya Rivera and Big Sean are not shy about making out on the red carpet. And over the weekend, the couple did just that at the 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards at Bell Media Headquarters in Toronto, Canada last night. And love is surely in the air for the rapper, who plans to release his Hall Of Fame disc next month. While he tweeted his appreciation for his father on Father's Day, his boo expressed her love for him with a tweet of her own. It looks like the upcoming album may show a more affectionate side of the rapper now that he's in love with a successful actress.
And in Las Vegas..... Nene Leakes, who co-stars on "Glee" with Naya, offered her beauty and fashion expertise to Donald Trump and his Miss USA 2013 Pageant Sunday night. Nene, who met Mr. Trump when she starred on "Celebrity Apprentice," served as a judge for the pageant. Nene's bestie, Cynthia Bailey--who's walked numerous catwalks herself, was there with her side pony to offer her friend some support. And probably was there to drum up a little buzz for her relationship memoir with hubby Peter Thomas, "Carry-on Baggage: Our Nonstop Flight". "The Voice" correspondent Christina Milian walked the red carpet in a beautiful Michael Costello black gown and accessories from Cartier and YSL. Loving this red hair on her. And the outgoing Miss USA, Nana Meriwether, also appeared on the red carpet at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino for the presentation. Nana took her final & ridiculously stunning walk down the runaway as Miss USA 2012 before crowning Miss USA 2013, Erin Brady of Connecticut

| HUH? Tawanna Iverson Says Ex-Husband Allen KIDNAPPED The Kids! Posted: 17 Jun 2013 06:40 AM PDT Ish just got real. The newest development in what has to be the longest most drawn out divorce saga in NBA history is that Allen Iverson is being accused of kidnapping his own kids. Check out the deets on Tawanna filing papers on his for never returning the kids to her care... As we all know, Tawanna Iverson filed for divorce...again...from NBA veteran Allen Iverson and it became final this past February. But the issue of custody of their several children was still a touchy subject. Earlier this year, the judge in the Iverson's divorce case blasted Allen for being an alcoholic and bad parent. So it's no surprise Tawanna received full custody and Allen only received visitation rights. Clearly A.I. wasn't feeling this ish because he allegedly took the kids on a "family vacation"...and never returned them! In legal docs just filed by ex-wife Tawanna, according to TMZ, she says Allen requested permission to take the kids (ages 3-16) to Charlotte, NC from May 22-May 26. But on May 26th, Allen never returned! Tawanna says she attempted to schedule an exchange of the kids in a neutral place on the 4th of June, but Allen never showed up. Damn, so nan one of these teenagers have a cell phone to call their mama and tell her where they are? Can't borrow one? Hmm... The ex Mrs. Iverson believes Allen is stashing the kids in a Sheraton hotel room in Georgia to keep them away from her. And she believes he never took them to Charlotte at all! Tawanna, who say shes extra concerned because he's an alcoholic who drinks around the kids, recently filed papers on Allen to get him sent to jail for failure to pay $40K in back child support. Is it safe to assume he's doing some immature and ignorant payback? Regardless of the reasoning, the court reportedly is looking for his ass and will be punishing him....likely with jail time. Allen....return ya kids.

| DO WE LOVE 'EM?! Rihanna's Floral Jogging Suit & Nighttime Iridescent London Looks Posted: 17 Jun 2013 05:17 AM PDT Rihanna never misses a night out...why would she when she has an infinity amount of designer threads at her disposal that she has to show off to her adoring fans? Check out the latest looks she stomped around London in on Sunday...and either you're gonna love 'em or hate 'em.
Decide inside... Sunday night after rocking out a second sold-out show at Twickenham in London, Rihanna threw on her brightest, most sparkling crop top with boyfriend-style jeans ripped with holes and a pair of sexy heels to hit up the club. She was seen leaving Boujis nightclub, where her brother Rorrey Fenty was performing live. It pays to have a big sis as a pop star....
The 25-year-old fashion lover flossed her iridescent clutch purser and showed off the sexy open back.
But earlier in the day, while on her way to her own concert, Rih rocked an outfit that you could very easily mistake for pajamas. But she's been into this style for over a year now so we're not surprised she took the fashion risk of a slouchy floral printed hoodie with matching jogging pants from Christopher Kane and her PVC Manolo Blahnik "Fersen" heels: Even her bestie Melissa got in on the action, rocking black & white Rihanna for River Island separates.
She posed it up with some fans outside her hotel room and kept it trucking to the venue. But about these looks of hers....
DO WE LOVE 'EM?!

| Posted: 16 Jun 2013 11:39 PM PDT Concerts were everywhere this weekend from New York to Atlanta. Check out Solange Knowles dropping it like it's hot on stage at Brooklyn's 2013 Northside Festival at McCarren Park and pics from day 3 of Bonnaroo in case you missed 'em. Plus, the celebs who turned out to hit the stage at Atlanta's Birthday Bash 18... After a whirlwind of performing in umpteen cities and countries this last week, Solange was back home in BK on Sunday performing at the Northside Festival.
Rocking a printed hat and a striped shirt and cutoffs with cut-out bandage style boots, Solo let loose with the mic during her performance: After gettin' low for the fans, she tweeted, "Northside! Brooklyn! New York! U beautiful people made me feel really good in side. I hope you enjoyed:( I'm happy I took those heels off." Ha! Peep video below:
By the way, also over the weekend Solo headed to Tennessee for Bonnaroo. And rocking the cutest summer look and twists, she took over that stage too
Nas was also down south taking over the stage for the big festival:
And down in Atlanta, every rapper that usually jumps at the chance to perform on stage....did just that. At 107.9's Birthday Bash 18, your typical faves plus a few others came out to celebrate at Atlanta Philips Arena in front of a sold out crowd: Drake made a major surprise appearance with his home 2 Chainz and sent the crowd into a hissy fit. Girls love Drake. Since T.I. was on hand to take the stage with B.o.B., his fam--Zonnique and an OMG girl, Messiah and others were right backstage ready to support pops during Father's Day weekend. The "We Gettin' It" collabo partners rocked out with some hits: TIP knows these long leather shorts are hot as all hell... Shawty Lo is apparently still bitter about his reality show that NEVER could.
The "Love & Hip Hop ATL cast was there--at least in part. Traci Steele, DJ Baby Drew (wonder if he ever found his $50K), Erica Dixon and her daughter (that she has with Scrappy) hit the stage looking cute.
And Trinidad James...it wouldn't be an Atlanta show without him or his cane. He hit the stage with Young Dro...this guy's shenanigans....

| Posted: 16 Jun 2013 08:58 PM PDT As Father's Day wraps up, a few first time dads revealed their offspring (and excitement) on Instagram. Check out Vince & Tamar's new baby boy Logan, Reggie Bush's first pic of his new baby girl, plus the congrats tweets for Kanye West....
Look who made their first sneak peek debut on Instagram. It's Tamar Braxton & Vince Herbert's brand new baby boy, Logan Vincent Herbert. Loves that name. Tamar posted the above sweet tribute to new pops Vince saying:
Sweet!
Reggie Bush's new baby girl Briseis made her Instagram debut today. The Lions Runningback and his fiance Lilit Agayan welcomed their first kiddie just a couple months ago. And Reggie posted her ridiculously precious pic today saying, "Enjoying my first Father's Day with my family! #blessed." Adorbs!
And Kanye West just became a dad Saturday. And his girlfriend Kim K.'s mom Kris Jenner tweeted a big CONGRATS message to him today. Neither Kim nor Kanye have said a word on their social networks or websites. The baby was reportedly planned to be delivered by C-section on July 12th (likely planned on that day because it's also Kanye's late mother Donda's birthday). But Kim had the baby several weeks early naturally--just days after Kanye was in Switzerland holding listening parties for his new Yeezus album. And today, E! News, the home of the "Kardashians" reality show, reports that the baby girl is Kim's doppleganger:
Sister Khloe Kardashian Odom tweeted about the "miracle baby" saying:
Meanwhile, Kanye had to skip his album release party in L.A. last night as his child coming into the world earlier than expected, the show still went on. In L.A., D.C. and other cities, Kanye's team went guerrilla style again and showcased a short film projected on tall buildings. This time, it was an "American Psycho-style" short film that was loud & bloody. And randomly starred Kourtney Kardashian's boyfriend Scott Disick and Kim K.'s best friend Jonathan Cheban. Check it out below showing in D.C.:
Happy First Father's Day to the newbies!

Congrats ladies!

| Jay-Z Announces New Album On New Samsung Commercial, Album Dropping July 4th (And July 7th) Posted: 16 Jun 2013 07:16 PM PDT Hova fans get ready. Mr. Carter has announced his brand new studio album in conjunction with his brand new Samsung deal. Check out how Jay's flipping his money three ways inside.... Jay-Z's Samsung deal--rumored to be worth $20 million--is officially official. Tonight during the NBA Finals, Jay and Samsung aired the new 3 minute "Inside Magna Carta Holy Grail" commercial that took viewers inside the studio to see the makings of Jay's upcoming album. The rapper is seen & heard talking to superproducers Rick Rubin, Pharrell, Timbaland & Swizz Beatz about the inspiration behind the new project. And he says he wants to create a revolution on the internet by writing new rules. And he wants to start those new rules with his new album that's dropping on the 4th of July. His first revolutionary idea: Have Samsung purchase 1 million albums (if Soundscan counts these as valid then dude is already platinum). Then get one million people to pay for an app so they can get an entire album for free. Yep, Samsung users get the first exclusive bite at Jay's new project. And it's all because the first 1 million Samsung users to download the "Magna Carta Holy Grail" app on June 24th and get the album for FREE on July 4th. The rest of the world gets it three days later on the 7th. All just in time for Jay's big stadium tour with Justin Timberlake kicking off July 17th. So far, we've seen pics of Kendrick Lamar, Nas, the super producers above and more in the studio with Hov over the last few months. So this album ought to be a good one. Check out the full commercial below and the Magna Carta Holy Grail (reportedly the actual name of the album) website.

| NEED FOR WEED? Tyra Banks Spotted Hitting Up A Cannabis Shop With A Mystery Man Posted: 16 Jun 2013 03:00 PM PDT So Tyra Banks likes a lil puff puff every now and then....possibly. Because the 39-year-old model was spotted hitting up a cannabis shop in Venice, California this weekend....with a mystery boo. Check out the former talk show diva carrying out her brown bag stash inside... Model diva Tyra Banks was spotted makeup free and in a jogging suit Saturday afternoon on Abbot Kinney Boulevard near Venice Beach. She had just had some lunch with this hottie of a mystery guy (clearly her new boo as they were also spotted holding hands later on) and was on her way to a marijuana shop. She was seen looking around inside The Farmacy, a shop that has (according to their website), "A superb [range of] California grown medical cannabis, cannabis infused products, and other high quality global organic medicine." So could it possibly be something non-cannabis related in that brown bag she carried out? Possibly. But we're going with the assumption she copped a lil stash for some relaxation.
Now the real question is who this man is. Because we all know Tyra likes to remind the world--like she recently did on Twitter--that her biological clock is ticking extra loudly. Somebody give this woman some babies already...

| Posted: 16 Jun 2013 01:34 PM PDT Miami Beach is all about the bangin' bikini bodies, and Serena Williams never disappoints. Check out our newest French Open champ parading around those curves in a colorful bikini this weekend, plus Chris Brown's boo Karrueche Tran showing off her petite bikini bod inside..
After kicking ass and taking names at the French Open last week, Serena made her way back home to Miami to relax, relate, release on the beach. And to give her killer bod a bit of a rest.
She and her girls stripped down to their bikinis to flaunt what they've got.
The girls had some drinks & nosh while chilling out under their umbrellas. Good weekend fun...
Also on Miami Beach:
Karrueche Tran made the most out of her hosting gig at Cameo Saturday night and hit the beach beforehand in a teeny weeny black fringed bikini. Her on again/off again boyfriend Chris Brown wasn't boo'd up with her, but she chilled out with friends and teased the paps with almost going topless. And showed off her cakes while riding jet skis:
Cute. Chick looks like she's having the time of her life these days now that she's back with Chris. Talk about a come up...
