REALITY ISH: Julissa Bermudez Gets Closure With Ex-Fiance Larry Johnson
Viewers of Style network’s “Empire Girls” were witness to
Julissa Bermudez’s emotions overflowing when she encountered her ex-boyfriend,
NFL running back Larry Johnson, outside a nightclubThe run-in was quickly
followed by a drink date, where Julissa – who met LJ in 2005 when she was
hosting BET’s “106 & Park” and he was a guest – couldn’t hold back her tears
of frustration as LJ beamed about how he’s stopped drinking, how proud he is to
be a dad and how happily in love he is with his baby’s mom.
Each revelation,
Julissa told her friends later, was like a dagger in her heart. During he three
year relationship with the athlete, she says he drank to excess, wasn’t trying
to be faithful and – although he wanted a baby – wasn’t yet ready to be a
father. The couple ended up breaking off their engagement in June 2008.
Cut to Sunday’s episode, where good friend Angie Martinez of New York’s Hot 97 pointed out that Julissa’s tears and constant chatter about him since their “chance” encounter outside the club must mean she still has feelings for him.

Watch:
Julissa and her “Empire Girls” co-star Adrianne Bailon (who
once dated Rob Kardashian) ponder one of the questions raised on their reality
show: With two years to go before turning 30, should they have sacrificed their
career ambitions and focused more on finding the right man to start a family –
like most of their friends have done?
Oh Julissa!

Azealia Banks GETS COLORFUL For PAPER Magazine
On the heels of dropping her brand new video for "Liquorice"
off her 1991 EP, the 21-year-old Harlem chick is donning some fashionable digs
for her new Paper magazine spread.
In the topmost pic she's rocking an Alexander Wang shirt, belt
by Diesel Black Gold, shorts and hat by Joyrich, Pedro Garcia wedges and a
Mickey Mouse bag by Todd Pearce for Love Bailey. In the above sucker-licking
pic, Azealia's threw on a jacket by Diesel Black Gold, Ashton Michael shorts,
collar by Louis Vuitton, Versace belt, mirror shades by Diesel, and jewelry by
Mishka Piaf.
The shoot was done at Smashbox Studios in L.A. as she just
moved to the west coast city:
"For me there's three options of where to live: L.A., London
and New York," she says. "London's too expensive and New York's too exciting:
too many parties, too many of my friends. If I wanna make this my life, I have
to live somewhere I can work, somewhere I can focus." She laughs. "My album will
not come out in September if I live in New York."

In an Alexander Wang top and a fork held to her wig, Ms.
Banks
spoke on the music industry saying:
"The music industry is like a machine," she says. "It's always
going, and this new generation of artists -- me, A$AP Rocky, Rita Ora -- we're
the fuel that's keeping it going. And once you get in that machine you've gotta
run with it. There's a crazy inertia that's been going for years and years and
years, and it's not gonna stop for you, so you've gotta keep fucking working.
The minute you stop working, that's when you get stuck in the gears. And that's
when it grinds you up and spits you out." But doesn't that constant work leave
zero time for normal-person stuff? "That's what you give up when you sign that
contract," Banks replies. "This hustle and bustle becomes your normal-person
shit."
Check out the rest of her feature over at PAPER.

Lets share Mary’s World the good and the bad!
Mary J. Blige is Planning to Play the Wife of Malcolm X
Mary J. Blige is planning to take on a major new project
playing the wife of the late Malcolm X. Blige is going to portray Betty Shabazz
in a TV film called “Parallel Lives,” which focuses on the lives of Betty
Shabazz and Coretta Scott King, along with their two famous husbands.
Blige says she’s studying the life of Shabazz to prepare for the role and looks forward to doing more acting in the future. She has already appeared in the Tyler Perry film, “I Can Do Bad All By Myself,” and is now taking acting lessons. She has coaches in a multitude of areas to help her get to the top of her game.

She has already appeared in the Tyler Perry film, “I Can Do Bad All By Myself,” and is now taking acting lessons. She has coaches in a multitude of areas to help her get to the top of her game.
Blige said this to Chelsea Handler:
“Even though I was given the part in ‘Rock of Ages,’ I wanted to prepare myself so I went to work for it,” said Blige. “I just didn’t want to get the part because I was Mary J. Blige. I went and did the work, I got an acting coach.”
Mary J. Blige Foundation says Blame The Bank For Foundation Loan Default
Mary J. Blige’s troubled foundation is turning the tables on
the bank that’s suing it for allegedly defaulting on a loan. According to TMZ
the Foundation for the Advancement of Women Now says TD Bank should have done
its homework before granting the foundation a 250-thousand-dollar loan.
If it had, it would have known that FFAWN was already in debt and probably should not have been granted the loan to begin with.
If it had, it would have known that FFAWN was already in debt and probably should not have been granted the loan to begin with.
The foundation also claims the woman who signed for the loan
did not have the authority to do so.
TD Bank claims the organization, founded by Blige and producer Steve Stoute, has only paid back 400-dollars of the 250-thousand-dollar loan it received in June of last year. The group was supposed to pay the money back by last December.
Well her acting and singing skills were put on display in her
most high-profile film role yet – Justice, owner of the Venus Gentlemen’s Club
in the rock musical. Blige stars in the new movie-musical “Rock of Ages,” which
opened in theaters over the weekend. The movie brought in
15-point-one-million-dollars for a third place finish behind “Madagascar 3″ and
“Prometheus.”
In the adaptation of the Broadway musical, Blige belts out tunes like Journey’s “Any Way You Want It” and Pat Benatar’s “Shadows of the Night” while taking in an aspiring young singer named Sherrie (Julianne Hough) whose own Hollywood dreams have hit a low point.
Blige, 41, sat down with Reuters to talk about the role, her
strong desire to mentor young women and the recent scandal that has plagued her
female empowerment foundation.
Q: You play the owner of strip club in the film. Did you try
and find some commonality between yourself and your character?
A: We have a lot in common. She was a protector of young women
in that environment. She saw herself in Sherrie and wanted Sherrie to be better
than her. And not be stuck in a place like a strip club.
Q: How does that relate to you?
A: The back story I gave Justice was that some man took the
power from her when she was younger. And they kept taking it from her to the
point that she ended up in place like (a strip club) to take the power back from
them. A lot of that is Mary.
Q: Explain taking the power back?
A: Stand up for your rights, learning to not let your
environment control how you feel about yourself, staying confident no matter
where you are. Nurturing young women, being an inspiration to them. That’s
Mary.
Q: You lent one of your songs, “Need Someone to Love You,” to
the upcoming documentary “The Invisible War,” which is about the rape of women
within the U.S. military. How did that happen?
A: When they approached me about it, I was like, that’s fine
because people are hurting. It was a way of giving back. When you’re lending
your voice, you’re saving a life.
Q: Why is helping others so important to you?
A: I think the more you have, the more you’re supposed to
give. It would be real selfish of people like myself not to give, not to want to
help someone. I remember when I was that girl, so why wouldn’t I want to help?
To sit and be selfish, to sit on all (your success), what are you doing with it?
It’s not moving, it’s not going anywhere, so you’re not growing. When you help
others, you grow.
Q: With that said, it must have been tough to learn last month
that your charity, The Mary J. Blige and Steve Stoute Foundation For the
Advancement Of Women Now Inc, was being accused of mishandling funds and
cheating scholarship students.
A: The lives of young women are at stake. I feel what they
feel. I don’t want them to suffer. I promised them something and I’m gonna
deliver. Period.
Q: For your music fans, when will you deliver the sequel to
last fall’s album, “My Life II … The Journey Continues (Act 1)”?
A: We already have songs for “Act 2″ and we’re still recording
a couple of new ones. Right now, we’re rehearsing a tour for “Act 1,” which
starts in August. The sequel will be next year.
Q: Any more plans to act?
A: I’m going to do a Lifetime movie called “Parallel Lives”
about the lives of Coretta Scott King and Betty Shabazz, the widows of Martin
Luther King and Malcolm X. It’s about what they had to deal with when their men
were fighting for freedom. It’s powerful.
Q: Who will you play?
A: “I’m supposed to play Betty but I’m on the fence. Betty, or
Coretta? We’ll figure it out. It’s Betty for now, but when you see the movie and
I’m Coretta…(laughs)
Q: Getting back to Rock of Ages, what do you hope to get out
of it? It’s your first time as part of such a high-profile cast with actors like
Tom Cruise and Alec Baldwin.
A: This is my big break for people to see me not as the
greatest actress but as someone who is on her way to doing something great.
Because she’s trying to do the work.
Well Mary this ish needs to be cleared up and also I liked you
in Rock of Ages but it was an awful attempt at Rock karaoke.

Naomi Campbell Featured In W Magazine
Supermodel Naomi Campbell shines in colourful designs from
Prada, Louis Vuitton, Etro, Fendi and others for the July issue of W magazine,
photographed by Emma Summerton and styled by Giovanna Battaglia.
In a previous
article in W Magazine, Naomi talked about the pitfalls of the modeling industry:
“There’s no handbook to teach you how to deal with this business. It’s been such
a roller coaster. Before long, I started taking drugs to escape or deal with
some disaster, like when someone died. I lost a lot of friends in 1997, and that
was the year I really fell down emotionally and “I first sought treatment for my
addictions in 1999, and then went in and out of recovery. I’d be okay for a
couple years and think I had things under control, but then I would relapse…”
WOW.. .” Check out the photos
“Some people can handle a drink or a line of cocaine, but I’ve
finally come to realize that, for me, it’s all or nothing – and it has to be
nothing. And my life has changed since.”
