On the carpet, she posed with the legendary Dionne Warwick, who was honored during the show. They've got matching blonde coifs!

New Song: Whitney Houston – ‘Never Give Up’
Her Voice lives on.
Whitney Houston may be gone in the flesh, yet the late great legend remains ever-enduring on ‘I Will Always Love You: The Best Of Whitney Houston’.
Due on November 19th, the retrospective set features many of the star’s classic hits, as well as new cut ‘Never Give Up’ – which premiered moments ago.
Produced by Jermaine Dupri, the track is believed to have been recorded during the studio sessions for Houston’s Platinum selling “final” album ‘I Look To You’.
Take a listen;
Like much of Whitney’s newer material, ‘Never Give Up’ highlights the potential embedded in her “new voice”. Sure, years of hardship had shaved a noticeable amount of horse-power off of her range, yet the richness in the texture and tone of her vocal cannot be denied.
A solidly produced mid-tempo, which makes for a bittersweet listen. For in many ways, we wish someone had sung them to Whitney herself before tragedy struck. Still, there’s no point wallowing in the “shoulda, woulda, coulda’s”. Greatness doesn’t die, it lives on and inspires.
Dallas Cowboy’s Player Tyron Smith In A Financial Battle With Family Members
You’d think that signing a four-year deal worth $12.5 million would change most families lives for the better. In the case of 21-year-old Dallas Cowboys second-year left tackle Tyron Smith, it appears to be tearing his apart. Early last week, Dallas police responded to a 911 call to Tyron’s North Dallas home. Two of his sisters were among at least three people who showed up at his home Saturday and Tuesday — “harass and torment” him “in the pursuit of collecting financial gain,” according to the police report. It is the latest in a string of events over several months where family members have tried to harass Tyron for their financial benefit, according to sources.
Over the summer, Tyron filed a protective order against his stepfather, Roy Pinkney, and his mother, Frankie Pinkney, to keep them from having any contact with him. The protective order also prohibits contact from Tyron’s parents through his siblings.
On Thursday, Tyron’s mother, Frankie Pinkney, said in a statement that she is supporting her daughters and says that her son has “hurt” and “betrayed” her.
Cowboys security is aware of Tyron’s family situation and has an organizational structure in place to help Tyron avoid any incidents around the club.
During training camp, one of Tyron’s family members had to be removed from the practice facility, according to Cowboys sources.
John Schorsch, a Dallas-based lawyer representing Tyron, said last week that Tyron’s family has not only continually demanded money from his client but also taken a substantial amount from him. Schorsch said he will have a forensic accountant review Tyron’s finances in an effort to find where more than $1 million has gone and likely will pursue legal action.
The 6′5″, 308-pound Smith attended Rancho Verde High School in Moreno Valley, Calif., about an hour east of Los Angeles, where he was named the top offensive tackle prospect in the nation
Kenya Moore -vs- Cynthia Bailey
You should have seen by now on the season premier of Real Housewives of Atlanta Kenya Moore let her claws out at the Bailey Agency Jet Magazine casting call and Cynthia was not impressed...
LOOK HERE
#1
#2
Well, also during the Jet Magazine casting call, Cynthia Bailey questioned by Kenya Moore had security guards when 'nobody knows who she is?'
Kenya reminds Cynthia and everybody else...Kenya writes on her Bravo Blog,
Why does Kenya have security when no one knows who she is?" First of all, I wouldn't need personal security if Cynthia didn't recruit randoms via Craig's List or Twitter. Secondly, it's obvious Cynthia does not read, watch television, and has been under a rock when I exploded on the scene years ago. I made history being crowned the second black woman to win Miss USA and I was fifth place in The Miss Universe pageant. Let me refresh hers or anyone else’s sluggish memory…
If you don't know, you better ask somebody. I'm also that girl whose been on the covers of and modeled for over 30 magazines from Essence to Real Health to Maxim magazine. In fact, the very audition she held for the Jet Magazine Beauty of the Week, I was chosen as a Jet Beauty. I also have a Jet Magazine cover. Do you have a Jet Magazine cover, Cynthia? NO, you don't. Additionally, I'm that girl who has had multiple endorsements including my very own Pantene hair commercial, print ads, cosmetic campaigns, as well as numerous fashion layouts. Yep me. However, models usually retire around 30-years-old. Even though Cynthia is a beautiful woman, at 45, maybe Cynthia should retire her dusty old wigs and worn out makeup brushes that are just as worn out as her welcome mat from the modeling industry.
Ms. Bailey also takes a shot at me by saying she "wouldn't be caught dead doing some of the magazines I've done." Well guess what, Cynthia, if you were on the cover of any of the men's magazines I've appeared on the cover of, we’d all die, because we would be bored into a slow and painful death just by looking at you. In fact, I'm bored now just by thinking about it.
Now as a reminder to Miss Bailey, since my successful modeling career and crowning, I moved on to enjoy other accomplishments in my career, such as becoming a popular actor, producer, director, writer, author, and businesswoman. Maybe Cynthia should move on too. #Twirls Away.
Oh Miss Kenya!

Keri Hilson Faints On A Flight To China
Singer Keri Hilson has sparked fears for her health after vomiting and fainting on a flight on Friday. Keri has been in China this week, but her hectic schedule has taken its toll on the star. The 29-year-old took to her Twitter page on Friday to reveal she had taken ill on an airplane as she left the country, and she blames her lack of sleep for the health scare. In the post, she writes, “Sure hope my day gets better because this morning I’m having so far — I fainted on my flight. Then I threw up. I’m fine now, I just need real rest — haven’t had more than 3.5hrs of sleep in 48hrs.”
Keri, who is heading back to the U.S., admits she began to feel better after coming round, but was so distracted by her sickness she left several personal belongings on the flight. She adds, “I left my purse & gifts from China on the plane, discombobulated. *sigh* drinking Gatorade & home-bound. I’m good now…”
Nicolas Ghesquière departing from Balenciaga. Kanye West to hand in resume
Valerio Mezzanotti for The New York Times. A look from spring 2013, Nicolas Ghesquière’s last collection for Balenciaga. In a surprise move, Nicolas Ghesquière is parting ways with Balenciaga, the Paris house he transformed into a modern luxury brand with a following for its clothing and accessories. A company announcement Monday morning said the decision for him to leave Balenciaga after 15 years as creative director was made jointly by Mr. Ghesquière and PPR, which owns the label. A spokesman for Balenciaga, Lionel Vermeil, had no additional information.
The news is surprising because it was thought that PPR executives were happy with Balenciaga’s performance in recent years and with the kudos Mr. Ghesquière has received for his often electrifying runway collections. PPR’s founder, the art patron François-Henri Pinault, was seen backstage in September at the spring 2013 show. The number of Balenciaga stores has grown to 62, with a concerted effort in Asia. In the news release, Mr. Pinault praised Mr. Ghesquière as “an incomparable creative talent.” He leaves at the end of the month. I will say Nicolas revamped Balenciaga, not in the way Tom ford did for gucci, which was on the brink of irrelevanancy, but he definitely turned the brand into the cool girls go to, the motorcycle bag and all it’s versions did something amazing for Balenciaga. But I am interested to see the direction the new creative director will take it.
Michael Wright Slams Into Nyc Police Car
Actor Michael Wright was arrested in the early hours of Sunday morning after he crashed his car into a New York police cruiser. The 56-year-old actor, who is best known for his role as Eddie King, Jr. in the 1991 Robert Townsend film The Five Heartbeats, was reportedly trying to park his Rolls Royce in Manhattan when he smashed right into a patrol car that had two police officers sitting inside. Michael was required to take a field sobriety test after the officers detected the smell of alcohol. The actor was taken into custody on suspicion of driving under the influence. Can’t you just see him doing the scene from Five Heartbeats, when they were arresting him?
Lil Wayne Ordered to Pay $2 Million
Remember that hilarious deposition by Lil Wayne in that lawsuit filed by Quincy Jones III where Weezy basically makes a mockery of the process by talking in crazy circles and claiming he didn't remember anything? Yeah, he shouldn't have done that...
It all started when Lil Wayne sued Quincy Jones III to prevent his music from being used in a documentary filmed by Q because Weezy didn't like how the doc turned out. Quincy countered Wayne for $2 million in lost profits and the deposition was for Quincy's counter suit.
Because of Weezy's recent health scare he wasn't present during the trial and that smug little deposition was all the jurors had to go on.
Must not have been any Lil Wayne fans on the jury that day because they awarded Quincy $2,195,00
Pay up Weezy!
