New Video: Alicia Keys – ‘Girl On Fire’
Alicia Keys is a wonder woman in her newest video, ‘Girl On Fire’ which shows her taking on the daily responsibility of most women; taking care of children, family, cooking, cleaning and the whole nine while still managing to look absolutely stunning. She reminds us that, as women, we really do have a lot on our plate.
What the video does not feature is an appearance by Nicki Minaj (who provided two rap verses on the original song) or Olympic gold medalist ‘Gabby Douglas’ who was referenced in the original.

Folks Party It Up With "WOMEN BEHIND THE MUSIC" In ATL
The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) closed out the 4th annual "ASCAP Presents… Women Behind the Music series" with a party at Vanquish in Atlanta. The series recognized women in the music community who don't often make the headlines like managers, attorneys, label executives, music publishers and songwriters.
T.I. and Tiny were there to celebrate Tiny being honored as one of the women who help make the music we love! Other honorees were B. Lawrence Watkins & Associates Attorney Bernie Lawrence-Watkins and songwriter and recording artist Crystal Nicole. Tiny's outfit always looks like it has good intentions....but it's never...quite....right.
"LAHH ATL" stars Rasheeda and Kirk Frost saluted women behind the scenes. This chick may be rumored to be damn near 40 (and we're not saying that's true) but she always looks fresh faced and pretty.
We haven't seen Brandi Williams in a long time! You may remember her from the group Blaque.
V103 personality Egypt looked nice.
Bryan-Michael Cox took time away from the studio to celebrate the fab females.
He and Johnta Austin posed with friends at the party.

Pregnant NYC Woman Fatally Stabbed Day Before Wedding!!
A pregnant Brooklyn woman was found stabbed to death in her apartment one day before her wedding — and cops were grilling her groom-to-be. Vindalee Smith, 38, just two weeks away from giving birth, was discovered Saturday on the floor of her blood-spattered East Flatbush home with a gaping knife wound to her neck, sources said.
There was no sign of forced entry, and no weapon was recovered, police said. Investigators are looking for a possible suspect. They interviewed her friends and family, and spoke to her fiance.
“I can’t even begin to imagine who would want to do that,” her friend, Sybil Samuel, told local newspapers. “It would be the devil, to kill a woman with a child in her stomach. They killed two people.”
Smith had four children in their teens and 20s, friends said. A baby shower had been planned for Saturday evening, followed by a small wedding Sunday. Friends told reporters that Smith had met her fiance about a year ago.
Smith was a devout Seventh-Day Adventist and attended New Dimension Church, where she was supposed to get married. Congregation members were concerned when she didn’t show up for morning service.
“She was always on time_ always the first person at church,” Tyler Harrigan told the Daily News of New York. “When the news came to the church, the whole church broke down. We started to bawl. All the children were crying.”
The grisly murder was discovered by Smith’s worried landlord on what should have been the happiest of weekends — with plans for a baby shower followed by a small wedding at a storefront church.
One of Smith’s friends was going to host the Saturday night shower at an Eastern Parkway apartment, friends said.
“She was very faithful and strong,” Samuel said. “We were looking forward to that baby.”
The next morning, Smith was supposed to exchange vows with her beau at New Dimension Seventh-Day Church on Winthrop St.
Rev. Ferron Francis said Smith didn’t seem overly excited about her upcoming nuptials. “It seemed more like she saw it as an accomplishment,” said Francis, who had never met her fiancé.
The Rev also told the Daily News that Smith had once feuded with a former neighbor who threatened to kill her, but it was months ago and the trouble had stopped when she moved to the new apartment.
OJ Simpson Trying to Sell Murder Weapon?
According to reports O.J. Simpson is strapped for cash and desperately trying to sell the knife he allegedly used to kill Nicole Brown Simpson.
According to a report from the National Enquirer, former NFL legend and convicted felon O.J. Simpson is trying to sell the knife allegedly used to kill ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman for $5 million.
It should be noted, however, the Enquirer’s report is currently unsubstantiated.
Both Nicole and Ron were brutally murdered outside of a West Los Angeles home on June 12, 1994, leading to one of the most-talked-about murder trials in recent memory.
Simpson was ultimately found not guilty of the double murder in 1995, but a civil jury later declared him liable for wrongful death, ordering him to pay $33 million to the victim’s families.
“[O.J. is] looking for a strictly cash deal so that the money can be deposited in offshore accounts and can’t be traced directly to him,” a source close to O.J. told the National Enquirer.
The report cites a source close to O.J. who believes the former running back, currently serving time for armed robbery, has secretly held onto the knife since the trial.
“O.J. said he’d reveal the location once a firm deal — for a minimum of $5 million — was reached,” the source told the magazine.
Still, the source believes this endeavor is about more than money.
“It’s not just about the money,” the source said. “O.J. will get sick satisfaction from putting one over on the cops and Ron Goldman’s family. He’d love to think he’s outsmarted them.”
Reggie Bush Laughing at Kanye West
Insiders say Reggie Bush is laughing at Kanye West for losing his cool after a photographer asked Kim Kardashian about Reggie's impending fatherhood.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s relationship took another embarrassing hit when Kanye went after a pap for asking Kim about Reggie Bush after they were leaving a restaurant.
Even though Reggie Bush has said nothing publicly about Kanye’s erratic response to the pap’s question about him and his girlfriend to Kim Kardashian, according to some of our PR sources, Reggie and Lilit find the whole thing absolutely hilarious.
When he got word of Kanye’s nasty run in with the paps, all he and his girlfriend could do is laugh.
Halle Berry Talks Being Biracial, Self Esteem & Bad Relationships
It’s still so very hard to believe that Halle Berry is 46 years old. What fountain has she been drinking from?
She looks young and rock starish in her signature pixie cut as she posing in the newest issue of T Magazine. Inside, she dishes on what it was like to grow up bi-racial (while comparing it to a secret society), as well as why she believe she has a hard time finding Mr. Right, how she felt after she won her Oscar and her continued troubles with being stalked by Paparazzi. She also revealed that she always felt like the underdog growing up which made her an over-achiever.
Catch excerpts from the very candid and revealing interview below:
On how her mother helped shape her into the women she has become
My mother helped me identify myself the way the world would identify me. Bloodlines didn’t matter as much as how I would be perceived” — as beautiful but also as a black woman in a world in which the images of beautiful, successful black women were notably absent.
On being mixed race
Being biracial is sort of like being in a secret society. Most people I know of that mix have a real ability to be in a room with anyone, black or white.
On her beauty and self-esteem
Just because they see my face doesn’t mean they see me. A person’s self-esteem has nothing to do with how she looks. If it’s true that I’m beautiful, I’m proof of that. Self-esteem comes from who you have in your life. How you were raised. What you struggled with as a child.
On why she is grounded
I come from humble beginnings. I always felt like the underdog. Behind the eight ball. I learned not to be too high on the hog. Even that night I won the Oscar, I had a fundamental knowing, it was just a moment in time. Driving home that night, back to my house, I felt like Cinderella. I said, ‘When this night is over, I’m going back to who I was.’ And I did.
On being hounded by paparazzi day in day out
They’re outside my house every morning, I get it about the celebrity stuff. It’s part of my job to recognize that there’s a certain part of my life the public wants to hear about. But it’s not okay that they’re doing terrible things to my daughter. One night, after they chased us, it took me two hours just to get her calmed down enough to get to sleep.
On why she hasn’t been able to find the right partner
God just wanted to mix up my life. Maybe he was thinking, ‘This girl can’t get everything! I’m going to give her a broken picker.
On why she so desperately wants to move out of America
I can’t grow my daughter in L.A. You take a little child who is just trying to learn about the world and have all these people with cameras chasing after her, calling things out to her about her mother. It’s starting to make her feel special and different. I want her to feel special and different, but not for the reason of being my child.
On what she would do if she didn’t have the press in her face for a day
I’d go to the market with my daughter. Go to Santa Monica Pier and take her on a ride. Nothing special. Just live some normal life for once.
4 Dead after Beauty Salon shooting in Florida
Usually the salon is a place of relaxation, pampering and gossip for women to enjoy, sadly today it became the scene of fatal acts of violence.
Three women were shot and killed while another person was injured at a Casselberry shopping center, in Florida. The suspected shooter died nearby from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according police said.
The suspected shooter was found dead inside a home in the 1300 block of Paradise Lane near Dike Road. Authorities said the suspected shooter came to the house shortly after 11 a.m. where the shooter’s two friends lived. The shooter came in very agitated, anxious and upset “about a problem he couldn’t fix” and didn’t tell the people about the shooting, according to authorities.
The shooter then pulled out a gun and took his own life. No one else was injured and one of the people inside the home called 911 at around 11:15 a.m. Three people were at the house at the time of the shooting. Investigators are waiting for the medical examiner to arrive.
Please keep the family in your prayers.

Is Wild Child Paris Too Much for Katherine to Handle?
Paris Jackson is upsetting her grandmother with her increasingly wilder antics.
Katherine Jackson is fed up with her granddaughter PARIS’ wild-child ways.
The Jackson family matriarch has been raising the 14-year-old and her brothers since their famous father, Michael, died of a drug overdose in 2009. But dealing with Paris’ antics is proving to be more than Katherine can handle – and she recently blasted the teen over her made-up appearance and rebellious attitude.
“Your father would be furious with you!” she screamed at the blue-eyed young beauty, says an insider.
Paris raised eyebrows when she appeared at a red carpet event in Beverly Hills on Oct. 11 wearing a curve-hugging blue gown, high heels and heavy makeup.
“Paris is growing up way too fast and Katherine is worried to death about her. She looked like a 24-year-old,” revealed an insider. “Katherine blew up and told Paris she was wearing too much makeup, her clothes were too tight and revealing, and that she’s hanging out with the wrong crowd.
“Katherine was so angry she was in tears. But Paris lashed back at her grandmother for being ‘old-fash-ioned’ and insisted that she’s not doing anything wrong.”
Katherine exploded after Paris posted a photo of herself with short, highlighted hair on her Twitter page, suggesting she’d chopped off her gorgeous light brown locks. “When Katherine saw the picture, she almost had a heart attack,” said the insider.
While it turned out that Paris was just playing around with a wig, “Paris’ shenanigans are getting to be too much for Katherine,” continued the source. “She’s too old to handle a crazy young teenage girl like that.”
The two are also at odds over Paris’ plans to launch an acting career. She’s set to star in the film “Lundon’s Bridge and the Three Keys.”
Katherine recently got some help in raising Paris and her brothers. Over the summer, a Los Angeles judge ordered custody of the kids to be split between her and her grandson T.J. Jackson. Still, no one expects that the new arrangement will do much to rein in Paris. “Paris can’t be tamed by anyone,” said the insider. “She’s a hellion and it’s driving her grandma crazy.”
