Jada Pinkett New Face Shocker

Jada Pinkett shocked onlookers recently with her drastic change in appearance. 

She is famous for her dramatic outfits and outrageous style transformations, but it was Jada Pinkett Smith’s face that grabbed all the attention this week while she was out promoting her husband Will’s new blockbuster, Men In Black 3.
“The Hawthorne star appears to have returned to the hospital for a little plastic surgery, causing her cheeks to look plumped up,” celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn, who has not treated the actress, told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

“I suspect that she's undergone injections of fat into her cheeks, possibly taken from her buttocks. It's also possible that this dramatic change in her appearance is due to surgical augmentation with solid silicone cheek implants,” he explained.
“Although Jada's appearance seems to have changed, she always looks great!” Dr. Youn concluded about the stunning 40-year-old mother of two.

‘The Game’:‘Derwin & Melanie’ Storyline Replace With New Couple

Sources report Now that Tia Mowry & Pooch Hall are officially OUT for season 6 of “The Game,” the finale episode centered around the twosome heading off to Baltimore so that Melanie could pursue her residency at Johns Hopkins.
What does that mean for next season of the show? According to reports, instead of just filling in 2 new actors to the Melanie/Derwin roles, the writers are pulling a “Single Ladies” and casting two new actors–one male and one female–to play different roles that will run parallel to the Melanie/Derwin storyline.
With Tia Mowry leaving the show, producers are looking for a new female actress to join the cast in the regular role of Kiera, a 20-year-old former child star who has been in the spotlight since she was five years old and starring on a “Cosby” style sitcom. According to the casting call, she’s bright and charming, but struggling into transitioning into a grown-up career.
Kiera isn’t the only newbie in town! Another series regular will be hired to play Bryce “The Blueprint” Westbook – a #1, Ivy League draft pick running back who breaks every “dumb athlete” stereotype. He’s not only got a Heisman Trophy, but he’s usually the smartest guy in the room — which sets his new teammates on edge.

Former ‘Youth Of The Year’ And Youth Minister Oscar Duncan Killed!

It’s time for another BDP Stop The Violence movement….
(via Patch) The 23-year-old Venice man shot and killed by an unidentified gunman was remembered Tuesday for his singing and dancing talent, devotion to preaching and work to keep youths on the right track.

Oscar Duncan, a 2006 graduate of Venice High School, was shot and killed about 10:30 p.m. Monday night in the 600 block of Santa Clara Avenue after he and his girlfriend were confronted by four men in a white, mid-sized sedan, police said. Words were exchanged and Duncan apparently was defending his girlfriend when someone inside the vehicle fired one round and struck Duncan in the head, said Sgt. Craig Brown of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Pacific Division.

“The victim had no gang affiliation whatsoever,” Brown said.

Duncan attended Mark Twain Middle School before moving onto Venice High School where he earned good grades and played on the school’s football team, said his cousin, Jumond Norman.
A growing memorial tribute was growing on the sidewalk Tuesday outside the home where Duncan lived with his mother as stunned friends and family were offered condolences. “So many people have come by the house because they knew he was ‘that’ kid,” Norman said.

Duncan was a youth pastor at a church in Compton and mentor at the Boys & Girls Club of Venice, which he belonged to growing up, Norman said. In 2006, he was named the Venice club’s Youth of the Year and in May he received the National Service to Youth Award for his “unusually devoted service” for helping youths for the past five years.
“He was like a breath of fresh air,” Norman said. “He grew up with a lot of negativity around him and disassociated himself with it and encouraged others to do the same.” Duncan was constantly upbeat and was the type of person who would go out of his way to cheer someone up if they were down, Norman said. Duncan often talked to youths about avoiding gangs, checked in on elderly people in the neighborhood and could usually be found either at church or at the Venice Boys & Girls Club.

Erikk Aldridge, executive director of the Boys & Girls Club of Venice, said that Duncan had been part of the club since age 6 and was hired after receiving the club’s top honor. “We hired him in May 2006 and this past May he received his five-year service pin,” Aldridge said. “That’s a pretty big milestone, being only 23 and devoting five years to youth development.”

Duncan in 2006 helped start a special audio engineering program with Venice music producer Scott Litt, who produced six albums by R.E.M., at the Boys & Girls Club of Venice, Aldridge said. Duncan recruited students from elementary school through high school and taught them how to run a music board and record their songs and poetry. In addition, he was the club’s teen services coordinator, where he acted as a junior staff career counselor and a mentor, Aldridge said.

“Without question, he was one of the most influential staff members here at the club,” Aldridge said.

Duncan also was a youth pastor at Greater Zion Church in Compton.

Los Angeles City Councilman Bill Rosendahl said he would adjourn an upcoming City Council meeting in Duncan’s memory and would work with police to see if a reward is necessary. Anyone with information on the shooting should call homicide detectives at 213-382-9470, or after business hours at 877-527-3247.
Duncan’s older brother, Curtis Nettles, was a star football player at Culver City High School who earned a scholarship to play at Washington State University and set an example for his younger sibling, Norman said.

Duncan was known as “Choir Boy” and he performed gospel-inspired hip-hop and also was a dancer.

“He was a real special person,” Norman said.

Angelo Gasca, the longtime head coach of the Venice High School football team, said that Duncan was one of the best kids he’s ever known.

“He’s one of my favorite players at Venice High School, and I went to Venice High School,” said Gasca, who graduated from the school in 1978. “I would have loved to have him as a teammate. I feel blessed that I was his coach and got to know him.”
Duncan often would sing a song on the bus after games, making up a rhyme about a player that would be spot on and funny, Gasca said. Gasca used to tell the other coaches to ride back on the bus because Duncan was so funny.

“If you knew him, the three things he emphasized were God, music and Venice and, I think in that order, those were the important things in his life when I knew him,” Gasca said. “I knew it meant a lot to him to be part of our program and to play football at Venice High School and it meant so much to me to have him do it.”

Gasca said that Duncan earned good grades, stayed out of trouble and was well liked by his teammates, his classmates and teachers.
“We have to find a way to make the streets and our city, and I guess the whole world, a safer place for our kids,” Gasca said. “If this can happen to someone like Oscar who did everything right, it can happen to any of us, and that’s not a very good thought to be thinking.”....UPDATE there have been 2 arrests in his murder!
R.I.P Pastor!

19-Year-Old Singer Tiffany Evans REVEALS She's MARRIED And PREGNANT!

R&B singer Tiffany Evans is all grown up now and she's recently revealed that she's married and pregnant! Get the deets on her new life and new music inside....

"If You Love Me" singer Tiffany Evans has been pretty low-key since parting ways with Mathew Knowles, but she recently revealed to ESSENCE.com that's she's had a lot on her plate. In addition to talking about a new album, she revealed she's been married for two years...and she's 6 months pregnant!

During her chat, she also talked about her new music and revealed why she IS NOT in competition with Rihanna and Beyonce. Here are the highlights:

ESSENCE.com: You've been quietly recording new music for a while now. Tell us about your new new EP, Take 1.
TIFFANY EVANS: Over the last two years, I've been growing and going through things like love. I don't want to say this EP is exposing, but it is to me. When I first came out I didn't write anything. My fans have never heard any music written by me. I thought it was important to do so this time around. I also thought it was important for me to experience life and go through things to write about them from a true place. I wanted this project to be organic. I had to take myself down a notch and go through love and write about it. The direction of Take 1 is very funky, very soulful, very R&B. It's womanly. It's me starting over. It's me reintroducing myself to everyone and finally establishing who I am as an artist. It's a real coming of age project for me. This EP was also the quickest way to give new music to my fans. I've been working on it all by myself, I feel like that chance now to really establish who I am music wise and who I am as an artist. This is that chance for me.

ESSENCE.com: How do you fight the need to compete against the Rihannas and the Beyoncés of the music industry?
EVANS: They are amazing artists and I respect them for their craft. But honestly, I do not focus on other female artists. Sometimes when you're looking at other people you can lose yourself. I just want make myself known for my fans. I just want them to know who I am. I don't want to compete with anyone. I want to push myself. You truly can't do that if you're competing with everyone else. I really want to be the greatest I can be.

ESSENCE.com: Who's your celebrity crush?
EVANS: Well… might I say, I don't have a celebrity crush considering I'm married! (giggles and laughs) No one knows. I've been married for two years. He is the love of my life and I love him very much. His name is Lorenzo. He's a really a cool guy and we're expecting something else as well – our first child together. I am six months pregnant. No one has seen me and I've been waiting the proper time to say something about it. I'm so happy and I'm so excited and I'm having a girl. It's so big and wonderful to me. It's an amazing experience and I wish guys could go through this. It's life changing.

A secret marriage at 17? Oh...Congrats all around!

Sherri Shepherd Files Police Report On Twitter Bully

Why do people keep playing games when it comes to threatening people online? Celebs are sick of it and they are beginning to take action.

Just a few weeks ago, John Legend’s girlfriend contacted twitter after she received threats from fans of Chris Brown and was able to get each and every user that sent her a threat deleted from the social network. Now, it’s The View host Sherri Shepherd that is taking action against online bullies. This week, after she was threatened on twitter by a Lil Kim fan who tweeted, ‘Somebody should drag u in a back alley and rape you’, Sherri marched down to the police station in an effort to get the user thrown in the clink.

According to her tweets, she is absolutely sick of bullies who say what they want online without having no consequences for their actions:

WHO DO I REPORT THIS TWEET TO? THIS IS A THREAT & I’M PISSED. This online bullying nonsense has got to stop… I need Twitter to step up. For someone to say I need to be raped… Really? You think I should be raped in a back alley? Let’s see if the police agree with you. I took a pic of your tweet. I’M FILING A POLICE REPORT. SO TELL ME NOW WHAT SHOULD BE DONE WITH ME.

Just talked to the police about [username omitted] …the laws should be changed for folks that bully – no consequences & the bullying continues. I am going 2 file a police report 4 U threatening me. And so help me God, when I find out where U live, charges will follow. I’m tired of folk thinking they can hide behind a celeb Avi & type anything they want to you w/o consequences b/c they can’t be seen COWARDS. I’m not a little 19 year old… I’m a grown a– woman… seriously you want to threaten me? I’m on my way to the police. This type of bullying is one of the reasons children are killing themselves b/c there’s no consequences for the bully(s). Those who follow me you may want to turn me off cuz’ I’m about to tweet all [User's Name]‘s followers … I’m looking for him/her.

We cannot let this bullying of our children continue… we have got to stand up to bullies – even online bullies. No one is stealing my joy; however I’m very angry that cowards masquerading as big talkers get to let loose online. On my way to the police station… will let you know what they say when I get back

Just returned from filing a police report for this online harrassment nonsense. I will be pursuing this legally. The police said @Twitter has to be subpoenaed for release of [username omitted] information.Thanks for the support everyone. Bullying has gotten out of hand & it’s breaking my heart that kids are out here having to deal with it. I retweeted the tweets and threats to bring attention to the seriousness of cyber bullies. There [should] be laws that demand consequences. I will not sit back and ignore these COWARDS – this type of online bullying goes on unchecked @Twitter what are you doing about it? How does a kid deal with the constant bullying assaults & it not affect their mindset? These are the kinds of tweets they get- how do we help?

The Twitter user’s followers began to harass Sherri further on Twitter, many of which she retweeted on her page, and they said that she was a “snitch” and even a few said that they hope she died. The Twitter user himself said was slanging all kinds of insults, saying that he didn’t say he would rape her, but he hoped someone else would, which didn’t make it a threat. I get it; it’s Twitter and people shouldn’t be taking social media too seriously, but nowadays you can’t let anything just slide when there are crazies on the other side of the screen. You don’t know what people are capable of, especially with folks going H.A.M. over Facebook statuses, getting fired over updates or getting stalked when they “check-in” to places. There is no excuse for telling a woman she should be raped. Ever.

Caught on camera: Polar bear shatters enclosure's glass in zoo as visitors watch on in horror

Two tourists were caught by surprise at Rotterdam Zoo when a polar bear threw a large rock at the thick glass separating the animal’s enclosure from the pair causing it to crack and nearly shatter.
The two visitors were captured on film admiring the polar bear swimming around through the pane of glass when the rock appears out of nowhere.
Luckily, the pane of glass separating the visitors from their swimming pool was strong enough not to shatter.

The polar bear greets the visitors through the glass as the camera starts to roll
The polar bear, named Vicks, is known among the staff at the Dutch zoo for playing with rocks and have said that they doubt it was a desperate bid for freedom, but rather an unfortunate accident which happened while Vicks was playing.
It may have been a stunt by Vicks to get back into the limelight.
When he was born in December 2010 he became a national celebrity as 420,000 people watched the early months of his life on a webcam feed in his darkened maternity den.

Video: 

The polar bear, named Vicks, swims away from the glass. He got his unusual name after the company, which produces cold and flu medicine, adopted him as a cub.

The arctic beast has been relocated to a different pen while the glass is repaired.
Staff at Rotterdam have assured visitors that it will be completely safe to visit the polar bear enclosure once the pane is replaced.

Is Party Lifestyle Taking It's Toll on Rihanna?

Rihanna is headed straight for a brick wall and no one seems to be able to stop her.

Rihanna has mysteriously dismissed claims she is ill but behind the scenes there is concern the star’s non-stop party lifestyle is taking its toll
ALL geared up to spend the next three months in London, Rihanna was looking forward to a Great British summer.
With two major UK festival performances planned and a TV series to film, the singer was expected yesterday to be settling into her luxury rented home in the capital.
Instead, she was holed up 5,000 miles away in Los Angeles after cancelling at the last minute.
And it seems – just like the weather over here – the star is all washed out.
Her management has blamed “sickness”, causing the 24-year-old to shelve her immediate plans – including an appearance on next week’s Graham Norton show.
Publicly, her TV bosses and tour promoters insist her summer plans are unaffected, and Rihanna will jet in as soon as she’s better.

Rihanna herself has mysteriously dismissed claims she is ill but behind the scenes there is concern the star’s non-stop party lifestyle seems to be taking its toll.
The Barbados-born singer – who was spotted out in LA as recently as Monday night – has been photographed on 61 nights out since January.
Most of those nights have also seen her post photos of herself on the internet.
One source said: “She always seems to be out partying – and loves posting photographs of her nights out on Twitter.
“She’s been ill a lot lately as well – and takes photos to prove it. Some people are beginning to get a bit worried.”
Twice this year, most recently last month, the singer has been admitted to hospital – and both times posted photos on Twitter of her arm hooked up to an intravenous drip.
Then there was confusion last night when Rihanna insisted she will fly to Britain after spending time with her family.

She tweeted: “I’m not sick! I pushed my trip to London back to go spend time with my family! Sorry kiddos.”
A spokesperson for Rihanna last night refused to comment on the cancellation of her London trip. The star is still scheduled to be taking part in her untitled reality fashion show for Sky Living, on which she is also executive producer.
A spokeswoman for the show insisted yesterday she is “100% committed” to the series.
She has reportedly already filmed scenes for the first episode.
The winner of the show will design Rihanna’s outfit for the Wireless festival – which she is still confirmed to be headlining in just four weeks’ time.
She is also still scheduled for BBC Radio 1’s Hackney Weekend in a fortnight.
Organisers will have their fingers tightly crossed that their star turn eventually makes it onto that plane.
