Chris Brown & Big Sean COVER The December/January Issue Of "XXL" Magazine

Chris Brown and Big Sean grace separate covers of "XXL" Magazine as both artists reflect on their success in the music business.  Find out what they shared inside and listen to Wiz Khalifa's "Rise Above" featuring Pharrell, Tuki Carter and Amber Rose.   
 In the December/January issue of "XXL" (on shelves December 4th) Chris Brown wrote his own cover story where he talks about his past mistakes, how he's grown emotionally and some of his public outburst.  Here are the highlights: 

On his critics 
“In the beginning, I used to be hot. I’m normal. I’m human, so if anybody says something that’s a lie, I’m numb to it. I’ve smartened up.” 

On his fight with Drake 
“A lot of people wanna know about the whole situation with me, Drake and Meek Mill. At the end of the day, I’m me, they’re them. They rap, I sing. Totally different caliber. I rap, I play around on mixtapes. But our words don’t collide as much as you’d think.” 

On his emotional growth 
“I haven’t been as mature and thought out in the past, so, me growing now, it’s showing my progression. I used to use my Twitter account to vent, but now I mostly use it for marketing and promotions. Even if the media asks me something, if it’s cool then it’s, ‘What’s up?’ But if it’s anything that’s too negative, I don’t care to respond.” 

On his feelings about love 
“One thing people often want me to talk about is my public love life. When it comes to my love life, the perception seems as though I am a player. But that’s not true. Love is something I am still learning. It’s just an obstacle that I haven’t yet mastered. I think that’s my biggest hurdle in life.” 

On his artwork 
“I use music or painting as my outlet to get through the confusion. I try to promote positivity and love.” 

On the dual cover of XXL, G.O.O.D. Music star Big Sean gears up for the release of his second album, Hall of Fame: Memoirs of a Detroit Player, due out in early 2013. He tells the mag about his upbringing and how it influenced him as an artist. Here are the highlights. 

On his responsibility 
“It’s deeper than just comin’ up or making money. We got the potential and opportunities to change the world—and still have fun with it. It’s a responsibility that I feel like I’m willing to take.” 

How Detroit influenced his artistry 
 “I took all my experiences from Detroit and incorporated them into who I am today. From partying to inspiration to sharing times about being broke to love to the dope boys, paper chasers. I would see all the players rocking furs and gators. I’ve seen people get killed. I’ve seen people spend crazy money. I’ve seen poor people. I give every aspect of the city in my music. They need somebody to tell that story.” 


Kate Middleton Duchess of Cambridge is PREGNANT!
Kate Middleton is pregnant, Buckingham Palace has confirmed!

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are expecting a baby, according to an official statement just released by palace officials, who confirm that Kate Middleton and Prince William, both 30, are adding a royal boy or girl to their mix.
Kate has been admitted to the hospital for Hyperemesis Gravidarum, a "very acute morning sickness, which requires supplementary hydration and nutrients," according to the duke and duchess' official website.

Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting a baby.
The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news.
The Duchess was admitted this afternoon to King Edward VII Hospital in Central London with Hyperemesis Gravidarum. As the pregnancy is in its very early stages, Her Royal Highness is expected to stay in hospital for several days and will require a period of rest thereafter.
The official statement of Kate Middleton's pregnancy comes after an exhaustive set of baby rumors that have dogged the couple ever since their royal wedding in April 2011:

·         On the pair's recent royal tour in Asia, Catherine declined wine in favor of water on several occasions, fueling speculation that she was expecting. Prince William also told a little boy that he wanted "two" children.
·         Just a week earlier, Star magazine had breathlessly (and creepily?) declared that the couple had conceived on a "passionate night together" following the London Olympics.
·         In November 2011, just six months after the wedding, In Touch pronounced Kate six weeks along, but summer 2012 came and went without, obviously, a royal birth. (Palace officials had shot down those rumors anyway.)
·         Also in November 2011, Catherine declined to taste a peanut butter paste at a UNICEF event, leading to gossip that she was expecting. (Pregnant moms apparently often avoid peanut butter to help prevent allergy issues.)
·         In Touch claimed in June 2012 that the Duchess of Cambridge was showing signs of a baby bump.
·         Also in June 2012, Us Weekly vowed that the royal couple were planning to conceive "between September 2012 and summer 2013."
·         In September 2012, Star magazine showed off photographic evidence that Kate was sporting a baby bump on her and Will's royal tour, where she was also seen drinking only water. Many, however, cried Photoshop.
·         In November 2012, Kate's "close friend" Jessica Hay claimed to Australian tabloid New Idea that Catherine was expecting and that the couple would make an announcement "in December." (Looks like she was right!)
The new royal baby will obviously be the first for William and Catherine, who married in 2011 after a 10-year on-and-off courtship. He or she will be Queen Elizabeth II's third great-grandchild (after Savannah and Isla Phillips), Prince Harry's first niece or nephew and will make Pippa Middleton a proud aunt.

Our biggest congratulations to the Palace!

OVAHNESS! Sophia Loren puts all the younger models in the shade at launch of 2013 calendar 


Just five years ago, she became the oldest model to ever poise for the legendary Pirelli calendar at the grand old age of 72. 

And Sophia Loren still managed to put the younger models in the shade at the launch of the 2013 iconic calender. 
The Italian actress, now 78-years-old, looked stunning in a glittering pearly-white gown in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday evening. 

With her brown hair worn over her shoulders and tinted glasses, the star added diamond earrings and a necklace to her dazzling outfit. 
And she looked thrilled to be in the Brazilian city among a slew of much-younger models, smiling and waving to photographers. 
The Oscar-winning star was one of five actresses to appear on the calendar's 33rd edition back in 2007. 
She joined Penelope Cruz, Hilary Swank, Naomi Watts and French star Lou Doillon on the iconic calendar which has been published since 1964. 

Sophia was pictured on a bed wearing black lingerie underneath white sheets. 
'I had a lot of fun, like a young girl' Sophia said of posing for the calendar.   
Loren said she was thrilled by the experience, adding she had 'absolutely no problem' posing semi-nude for Dutch photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. 


'I didn't think they would ask me such a thing,' she said of the shoot, which took place in California. 
'I started to laugh a lot, I found it ridiculous, I was a little bit afraid,' she added. 'I asked a lot of questions, then thought, "What the hell, I am going to do it anyway." 
'When you start to feel good, you give it everything you've got.' 
The Italian actress even once told her fans her unusual beauty secret: 'Everything you see I owe to spaghetti,' she claimed about her youthful looks. 

Sophia later took to the stage on Tuesday alongside the Pirelli President Marco Tronchetti Provera and Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro to launch the new calendar. 
The Pirelli calendar is never sold but is distributed each year by the tyre firm to some 40,000 VIPs, top customers, politicians and other personalities. 


Meanwhile models from the world over were also in attendance including Petra Nemcova who plumped for a subtle gold long sleeved gown, and American model Kyleigh Kuhn, who took the plunge in a daring black number. 

They were joined by beauties Liya Kebede, Hanaa Ben Abdesslem and Summer Rayne Oakes. 



Joe Budden Kicks Girl Out of His Concert For Saying It Was Dead On Twitter!!! 


Well it seems that Joe Budden has had himself quite an eventful evening last night as he was set to perform out at a concert in the bay area. However, there were a few fans who attended the concert and were waiting for Joe Budden to make his grand entrance and were not too thrilled about how dead the venue was looking. So in an effort to vent her frustrations, one fan in particular (who goes by the name of Paige S on Twitter) tweeted out a photo of exactly how dead the crowd was looking for Joe Budden's concert. 
You can check out that photo and the malay it caused when you click on that look below: 
Apparently, Joe Budden was not happy with what Paige S tweeted and asked for her to be removed from the concert before he went on stage to perform. Don't believe me? Then check out Paige's next tweets below (please read from the bottom to the top): 

For some reason, Joe has not addressed this incident on his Twitter page, but I'm sure its only a matter of time before he does. You know Joe is not one to leave his fans hanging in suspense and that theres always three sides to a story. But I'm curious to hear what your thoughts are.....

Girl that is not what’s up… I thought things were going well Mary?….

She also got backlash for mishandling funds when it came to paying for scholarships for students. Mary has yet to release a statement to state her case, but we will be waiting……

Fantasia POPS OFF On Baby's Daddy Antwaun's Family...After She Shows They're STILL Together 



Fantasia has some words for everybody that has a problem with her still (apparently) being with Antwaun Cook--the man she had a child with while he was still married to his wife Paula. 
So check out how she popped off on a member of his family on Instagram...and flaunted a pic of the twosome spending Thanksgiving together... 

So we're still doing this apparently.  While most of us thought Antwaun and Fantasia were done for good after her suicide scare, pregnancy and getting sued by his wife, things apparently are still poppin' in South Carolina. 
After receiving some scathing messages from an alleged aunt of Antwaun, she posted the above pic of she and 'Twaun cuddled up on Thanksgiving saying, "RUN and TELL THAT." 
The messages written by Vickie Henry caused Antwaun to delete all his social media accounts, but Fanny stil had some things to say, like telling her to come to her house and confront her "woman to woman."  She also said Antwaun's family likes to smile in her face when they come see their son Dallas, but talks mess behind her back about "how many pics Antwaun is given of his son." 
Sigh.  Meanwhile, Fanny posted these pics of Antwaun with Dallas at a b-ball game and her with her daughter Zion all right before the situation: 

She said: "Thank You!!! You Always support Us....Blue Hair, Sunny Day, kids Fam and MY LOVE.. Cant get any better" 

The drama continues... 


Bobbi Kristina Responds To Criticism 


Bobbi Kristina has been through one heck of a year between the loss of her mother, Whitney Houston; her father, Bobby Brown,  in and out of rehab; reality tv; her life in the public eye and of course her relationship with Nick Gordon. She speaks out in two simple tweets.


Nick Gordon simply says it all in some Retweets …. 


We are glad that BK is safe and okay after. 


NeNe Is Mad That Blacks Don’t Support Her, But Supports Kim Kardashian… 


NeNe wants to know, why black people are quick to shade her anytime she has a great moment in her life, but blacks will be quick to support Kim Kardashian.  Real Housewives of Atlanta” star NeNe gave a telling interview to The Daily Beast about the hate she’s received after covering the Power Issue of EBONY magazine. Whether it was the fact she was being recognized as “powerful” or the pic of her in a tub of diamonds some called tacky–everybody had an opinion. 
But the reality star let none of it get to her, an actually called folks to task for supporting sex-tape-comeuppance-publicity-hungry star Kim Kardashian….but not NeNe here is what she had to say inside. 

“It’s true and I know you’ve heard it a million times, [African Americans] just don’t support one another,” she says. “But it’s OK for you to go pick up a magazine cover with Kim Kardashian. She’s my girl. We are cool. We talk. We do drinks and all of that. But her story ain’t no different than mine. You know what I mean? I might’ve worked at the strip club, but she made a sex tape.” 
NeNe also explained that the flackshe caught for making EBONY’s Power Issue cover, came mostly from the African American community. But she’s not letting the hate stop her one bit: 

“I absolutely deserve to be on the cover…This cover is about money, power, and respect. And it’s about a come-up story and I’m the one that had that story this year … Not only did I come out as a reality star that was very boisterous and vivacious and outspoken and all those things. I flipped that into money and respect. And a lot of people can’t do that. 
“But listen to me, definitely all of the negative feedback definitely came from my own; African Americans were the ones that were the most negative,” she continues, adding, “And it’s so funny to me because I would call [the editor] over at Ebony and she would say ‘Girl please, glass houses. That’s all it is. They don’t want to see you on the cover, they don’t really understand the reason why you’re on the cover, they don’t know your story.’” 
The fact that she indirectly shaded Kim is priceless.. Plus I mean if you have friends like NeNe, who needs enemies seriously!  Not everybody has to support her. Her Ebony cover was OK, but tacky if it was a bit more tasteful I don’t think anybody would have a problem with it. And she says Kim Kardashian is her girl, so why throw her underneath the bus like that? I’m not a Kim fan myself but Nene was messy for that.

KATE: Did it feel like a battle you were fighting? And are you still fighting for equality in fashion?

CHRINNAGATE: Rihanna plants a tender kiss on her 'baby' Chris Brown's cheek as she congratulates him after concert. 


If there was any shred of doubt as to whether or not she is back with Chris Brown, Rihanna seems to have put it to bed once and for all. 
The singer posted an intimate picture to her Twitter and Instagram pages on Thursday which shows her planting a kiss on her former flame’s cheek. 

In a caption the 24-year-old also refers to Chris, 23, as her ‘baby’. 
The tender image shows Rihanna wrapping her arms around Chris’ neck was he keeps his head down and she nuzzles into him. 

Chris crouches on a sofa while Rihanna is cross-legged beside him and leans into him, sporting tiny white shorts and a matching top. 
She wrote alongside the telling photo: ‘I dont wanna leave!!! Killed it tonight baby!!!’ 

Chris performed on Thursday night in Frankfurt, Germany, and it appears Rihanna has joined him there, and she shared the snap at approximately 5am local time. 
She was also with him for a Berlin concert last week on Thanksgiving, but headed to London over the weekend for a performance on The X Factor. 

In 2009 Chris was charged with assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna, and the pair have been denying recent rumours they have rekindled their romance. 


Suspect Picture of A.S.A.P. Rocky Floating Around Kissing a DUDE!


 
With every new artist trying to make a name for themselves comes some unnecessary drama. Whether its negative or positive, professional or personal, if there isn't any drama attached to a new artists name, chances are, they're not doing something right. So it comes as no surprise that there has been a very suspect looking photo of A.S.A.P. Rocky with an unidentified man floating around on the internet. 
The photo looks as if the unidentified man is leaning in for a kiss while A.S.A.P. Rocky is all smiles. I will say it could be the way the photo was taken, or the angle it was taken in, but most websites are running with the story that A.S.A.P. Rocky is either a homosexual or bisexual. I wouldn't make any judgements as of yet, because again, it could just be the way the photo was taken. 
However, I'll let you guys be the judge of the photo (which was courtesy of HipHopMorning.com) when you look below: 

I'll let you guys air out all of your thoughts in the comments section because you know I'm listening!!
