Kerry Washington & Tony Goldwyn Get SCANDALOUS And TRADE ROLES For "Entertainment Weekly"
"Scandal" stars Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn got pretty damn close for a sexy shoot in the latest issue of "EW" magazine.  Inside the accompanying article, the magazine dished with the show's stars, executive producer Betsy Beers and show creator Shonda Rhimes.

Shonda, knowing that the show gets 220,000 tweets per episode, explained the show's appeal to fans and celebrities saying,  “I feel like The West Wing brought us Washington as we’d all want it to be. And this show brings us Washington as we hope it would never be.”

And Kerry, whose Olivia Pope character is a popular topic on social media sites, was shocked to find out that Mary J. Blige, Oprah Winfrey and Lena Dunham are amongst their fans.  “Bill Clinton was another person where I was like, ‘What?! You watch Scandal?! I feel like it happens at least once a week — that I am totally floored by somebody who watches the show.”

So what can fans expect from this year's season finale?  Betsy tossed out a teaser to the mag saying, "If people think we’re burning through story now, they’re going to be very shocked at what happens in the next few episodes.”

That chemistry though....we're getting our popcorn ready....

And if you've ever wondered how "Scandal" would play out if Olivia Pope were POTUS, watch Kerry and Tony trade roles here.

The "Scandal" cover hits magazine racks on April 5th.



Halle Berry is pregnant with her second CHILD!
Sources connected with the actress and her fiance, Olivier Martinez, says Halle is around 3 months pregnant -- based on the pics and some other facts that is being told ... she may be a little further along.

What's more ... they know the sex.  It's a boy.

This could explain why Halle and Olivier were so upset when paparazzi got too close to her earlier this week at LAX while she was carrying soon-to-be big sister Nahla, who is 5. It's definitely worth noting ... Halle is 46, and Olivier is 47.

CONGRATS TO THEM!

Oooh!!! Still Thirsty K. Michelle Is Shading already!!.
Vh1.com released their super trailer to season 2 of "Love & Hip Hop Atlanta", K. Michelle had some choice words for her cast mates. See below

Now I do want to say this. K. Michelle did not mention any names in her tweets, nor did she curse out anybody, but what she did say left nothing to the imagination with who she was referring to. So on that note, check out a screen shot of K. Michelle's Twitter timeline when you look below:

Now I don't know about you, but I know exactly who K. Michelle was talking about! Now what say you?


Porsha & Kordell Still Living Under The Same Roof?
Well sources are saying that Porsha and Kordell are still living under the same roof despite their pending divorce. Porsha refuses to leave the house because she feels it would ruin her chances of getting the house after the divorce. I’m sure it’s a little weird living together, but I was told Porsha leaves early and comes back late at night to avoid Kordell. That seems like there doing to much.

Well what would you do in this situation?


The Notorious B.I.G.'s Childhood Apartment In Brooklyn Selling For $725,000
Gentrification is a mother. The Notorious B.I.G.'s childhood apartment in Brooklyn's Clinton Hills neighborhood has been put up for sale for a hefty $725,000.

The Daily Intelligencer reports:
Before he was rap martyr Notorious B.I.G., a young Christopher Wallace lived at 226 St. James Place, apartment 3L, in Brooklyn, and worked as a bag boy at the Met Food around the corner. Now immortalized as a hip-hop landmark, the apartment was listed for sale yesterday for the very 2013 price of $725,000. While Biggie referred to his "one-room shack" in Bed-Stuy, times have changed: "This three-bedroom plus den/office condominium was renovated a few years ago preserving traditional styling while answering the needs of modern usage," and now the area is referred to as Clinton Hill.
The listing agent, Judith Lief, is well aware of the apartment's cultural significance but doesn't feel it will have much of an affect on the apartment's sale. "The tour buses that come by regularly are enough," she told the Daily Intelligencer. "I don't really know yet what impact, if any, [Biggie's looming presence] will have on the sale. I think it'll be notable, but I don't know if novelty translates to a purchase."
On the apartment's listing on StreetEasy, the unit is partly described as  having "wonderful light" and is "beautifully proportioned" with "spacious east-facing living room to the formal dining room to its very well-appointed kitchen with lots of storage and prep space."


DJ Clue Arrested For Molly's & A Suspended License!!
Queens DJ (DJ Clue) was arrested at a check point out in New Jersey for driving with a suspended license and having 3 pills (which some are assuming were molly's) wrapped in tin foil in his possession. Whether or not the pills DJ Clue had on him were for himself, or if he was looking to sell them is not clear, but he only had 3 pills on his person so you make the call.

According to RapRadar.com, Ernesto Shaw (DJ Clue's government name) had his license suspended about 8 times already so they took him into custody and charged him with??? Well read the rest:

DJ Clue was taken into custody and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance and aggravated unlicensed operator. He’s expected to be arraigned in Manhattan court later Wednesday.
Hopefully, everything will work out for Clue! But what are your thoughts on him having pills/molly's on him?


The BRAVO Upfronts: Andy Cohen Throws BRAVO ‘Upfront’ Party With Housewives, ‘Shahs of Sunset’ & ‘Vanderpump Rules’ Cast
It’s about that time again!I. Andy Cohen, the brain child behind some of BRAVO’s more popular reality shows, threw a festive AND fashionable Upfront party for his reality TV employees. From these pics I received I peeped everybody and their mama–like literally, putting their fashion foot forward and fake smiles (and some of ‘em were authentic, I’m sure) on for the poppin’ blue carpet. A little birdie on the inside gave me a bit of scoop! And here’s what I know.
Tension is still high, socially, between the Real Housewives of Atlanta. Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, Porsha Stewart and NeNe Leakes were in one crew (of sorts), while Kandi Burrus and Phaedra Parks mingled together all night. While Kim Zolciak and her hubby attended, they didn’t mingle much with NeNe (they rekindled their friendship recently)–which doesn’t mean much.
The ENTIRE cast of the Real Housewives of New Jersey was in the building, leaving us to believe that everyone is returning for the new season. There’s a big shake-up going on with the cast of the Real Housewives of New York, with only three cast members present and one being from the original first season. 

Not much drama, but the entire cast of ‘Shahs of Sunset’ were all smiles, along with most of the crew of ‘Vanderpump Rules‘. Anywho, Gte ready for more Drama!


Manhattan Judge Sentences Pimp To More Than 62 Years
It's hard out here for a pimp, literally.

A judge in Manhattan sentenced pimp, Donnell Baines to 62-and-a-half years in prison Monday (April 1) for s*x trafficking, and abuse.
During his trial Baines argued that the women he's accused of abusing were well aware of what they were doing, but Judge Patricia Nunez saw things much differently. “You picked these damaged women,” she scolded. “You gave them food, housing. They performed prostitutional activities for you. You never gave them a penny … To me this is akin to slavery.”
Authorities accuse Baines of coercing at least four women into prostitution, a business which he ran out of his New York City apartment. In October, he was convicted on several charges including r@pe, s*xual abuse, and unlawful imprisonment. He is believed to have  held a minimum of three women hostage, and forced them to engage in intimate acts, between March 2009 and July 2010.

Upon sentencing, the 39-year-old proclaimed that he would maintain innocence until the very end. “I'm going to assert my innocence till the day I die. The court may not like me. I don't like. But I didn't do those things.”

One victim recounted meeting Baines through a faux modeling ad posted online. She planned to work for Baines for less than a week, but was beaten with a rubber mallet, and forced to remain in his possession for much longer.
State DA Cyrus Vance Jr. wrote in a statement that mounting evidence proved damaging to Baines' defense. “As proven at trial, he even went so far as to beat his victims for the slightest infraction of his rules. This sentence reflects the gravity of the defendant's actions in using women's bodies for personal profit.”

Baines will be eligible for parole in 50 years.


Diddy’s Toluca Lake Home Target of “Swatting” Prank
A DOZEN cop cars and TWO police helicopters raced to Diddy’s L.A. to an emergency call made by a swatter.  A swatter made a call that someone was shot inside the home, that the target had in fact been Steve Carell who’s house happens to be located next to Diddy’s.
Cops are taking this swatting thing VERY seriously and have said they will prosecute the perpetrator to the fullest extent of the law.  Swatting is NO JOKE, folks! It’s a damn waste of taxpayers’ money.


Bikini clad Celebrity Apprentice star Claudia Jordan leaves her model friend topless after cheekily stealing her swimwear
She was last seen being dramatically fired in the fourth week of Celebrity Apprentice's all-star season.
But TV personality and model Claudia Jordan didn't appear to be letting the disappointment get to her as she hit the beach on Wednesday.
The 39-year-old larked around in Miami Beach with her model friend Aisha Thalia, jokingly making off with her bright turquoise bikini top, leaving Aisha topless.

Brandishing the bikini to the rest of the beach, a laughing Aisha protected her modesty with one arm as she laughed and giggled on the sand.
At one point, both models posed for a self portrait, with Claudia taking snaps of her friend on her cell phone.
The pretty brunettes had earlier been showing off their model figures in their striking two-pieces with Claudia sporting a patterned Calvin Klein bikini.
Claudia enjoyed sunning herself on the sun lounger, applying bright pink lipstick after she and Aisha enjoyed a Malibu rum cocktail.
She had clearly been having a great day with Aisha, earlier tweeting: 'With my BFF on south beach @aishathalia #MalibuAndArugula look at her damn body! #ridiculous.'
And the star also gave some clue as to how she stays in such svelte shape.

'Ok 30 minute run down the strip,' she wrote. 'Gotta work out everyday I am outta town. This waist aint gonna just shrink itself!'


AND FINALLY FROM THE CRAZY PEOPLE SHOPPING AT WALMART FILES
‘Just Shake Your Rump!’
If I got those bottom biscuits for breakfast it would end up ruining my dinner! Not because there is so much but because I just don’t think I can stomach eating for a day or so now.


HAVE A GREAT WEEK AHEAD EVERYBODY!!!
