Just call her Mother Nature because she’s serving us all kinds of organic fresh faced-ness like never before along side her husband and Gayle King. Saturday evening saw the elite of Trashville Lindsay Lohan and Kim K. mingling with stars such as avid crispy chicken wrap supporter Mary J. Blige and actress Kerry Washington at the 92nd Annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. Also in attendance were Charlize Theron, Viola Davis, Ginnifer Goodwin, Eva Longoria and Kate Hudson. Just a lot of random people. But the real ki is below.
Obama hadn’t even stepped foot onto the podium or put his lips to the mic and there was already sass and shade being slung. Get into his speech after the click..
As you may well know, Ms. Fenty is gracing the cover of US Elle this month – but wait, there’s more.. Accompanying the cover and spread is a short film piece directed by Tom Munro. Set during the mid-50′s in Havana, we get to see Rihanna look beautiful in expensive clothes and dance quite awkwardly at a window while smizing for dear life in the general direction of her salsa-dancing man. To sum up the story in a nutshell; it’s basically ‘We Found Love’ with some added Salma Hayek and Gloria Estefan tease. This is the last we’ll be seeing of this blonde which I can’t say I’m mad about. At all.
As we all know, the current state of female hip-hop is.. Let’s just say.. Murky. Who out right now can you honestly say is really doing GOOD big things musically? Plenty of ‘em are doing big things, but it’s garbage so it stays in the womp-pile (see Pink Friday: Roman Retarded).
HOWEVER. A savior in the shape of the one and only Melissa Arnette “Missy” Elliott is returning this year with a brand new album. Don’t open your coinpurse and count the copper just yet though! This “Block Party” album has had more release dates than HATEretha has chins. I’m led to believe that this year is finally the year for Missy as she appeared yesterday night at Hennessy’s Wild Rabbit campaign at Highline Stages in NY performing new material. Check it out below!
Listen, I’m human. And I love a scrap just as much as the next messy broad but there’s a line. A LINE DAMMIT! That line is obviously invisible to the Basketball Wives. One in particular is Evelyn. In the previous episode she set up a doo-wop or a pow-wow or whatever and it came out that the crazy one (Kenya) called her loose. Drama ensued. Get into the episode below..
Right. So from time to time if I’m not MEGA tired from the day job and my creative juices are flowing, I’ll make something musical. My macbook (her name’s Matilda) has been ill for while and I recently got her fixed*. To celebrate this momentous event I decided to make something that I’ve wanted to for a long while: an acoustic version of Usher’s ‘Climax’. Unfortunately there’s no studio acapella of Usher’s version so instead I used the vocals of a singer named TC. Get into it!
Ok, I’m not even going to sit here and lie by saying I wasn’t intrigued by Nicki’s live exorcism performance of this song at the Grammy’s. Because I was. But for the wrong reasons. Let me tell you it made me LMAO like nothing else this year. The studio version of ‘Roman Holiday’ has recently surfaced and to be honest its really no different. The second verse? Where she’s just humming random shit and yelling ‘BITCH’? When she yells something about world war 6? And then when she starts singing as if she’s really doing something? I. WAS. ROLLING. IN. THE. DEEP. This is what your children listen to. I do like the production though. Get into it below.
