Paula Patton Talks Finding "Mr. Right", Wale Does Cover Of "ROLLING OUT" 
In the latest issue of ROLLING OUT, Mrs. Robin Thicke talks to the mag about finding Mr. Right as she took photos with her Cop Stars of her movie Baggage Claim in theaters now.  Here are the highlights:

Is it better for a woman to wait for Mr. Right?
That’s where we need to go as women is to find some comfort in that. The moment we stop looking and caring, they all come flocking when you’re not looking.

Why is it important to be open and prepared to receive Mr. Right?
I am so glad that I am in a relationship or I would be messed up. Only people who love you can tell you “you know it’s annoying when you do this” and “you need to stop saying this when you are out in public.” It helps you grow as a human being. Hopefully, you enter the relationship open and ready to learn and this person who tells you there are some flaws you need to work on, you should listen. That’s what I love about my relationship and it has made be a better human being.
Does love complete a person?
People think finding love is going to complete them. It’s much more important that you are already complete when you enter that bond. That can make the search for love so hard when you’re thinking that’s the thing that will make me important or special.
You have to be a full human, love yourself and the partner is there to be the dessert. You have to be the meal.

What’s the best marriage advice you can offer?
It’s a marathon; it’s not a sprint. As women, we get caught up in that day when you get to be a princess. When that day is over, you’re like, wait, hold on a second! What just happened? Do I even want to sleep with this person? That’s why marriage is beautiful. The longer it [lasts], that’s someone who loves you inside and out, loves you for all your flaws.

What’s the secret to making it last?
It’s about being yourself, loving yourself and finding that person who loves you just the way you are. Who doesn’t like to see people go on a journey, travel everywhere?

Iggy Azalea Says She Didn't Blow Anyone to Get on Beyonce's Tour 

Iggy Azalea lashes out at critics who claim she sucked her way to the top.

Iggy Azalea has hit out at critics who have suggested she has been sexually involved with her male counterparts in order to further her career.
The star joins Beyonce on the Australian leg of her Mrs Carter tour later this year, and claims joining the 'Single Ladies' star on the road will mean she avoids the sexual slurs she has previously been hit with. Speaking to Gigwise the Australian rapper candidly expressed her frustration at the unfair allegations.
"Obviously I was really excited and happy," she said, when asked about joining Beyonce on tour. "I kind of felt honestly like, finally someone that [the press] won't be able to say I had sex with to get it.
"I just feel like everything I do, people are always like 'She probably had sex with someone to get that... she's probably sucking that dick.' Honestly, I swear to God I've never sucked anyone's dick for anything," the 'Bounce' rapper added. "I've only ever sucked dick for free. I've only ever given free blowjobs. I've never given a blowjob for anything other than I've wanted to give that guy a blowjob."
"They won't be able to say I gave Beyonce a blowjob, so, yes! You can't discredit me for this... she likes me, and she invited me, so, so there. Take that."
Iggy has just released latest single 'Change Your Life', which features a guest appearance from mentor T.I. The rapper is gearing up for her major label debut, The New Classic, which is slated to be released later this year.

The Newest "Basketball Wives: LA" Star REVEALED: Sundy Carter
Earlier this week our folks over at TheYBF broke the first pic of the two newest cast members of "Basketball Wives: LA" filming the show.   They told you one of the two newbies is NBA wife Brandi Maxiell, and now, we've learned that the other is "alleged" NBA mistress....Sundy Carter.
I posted the above pic as the first look of the new ladies filming with Jackie Christie.  And now, we know the second newbie (far right) is Jackie's good friend Sundy Carter.  She even posted a pic of herself headed to film (atop).  She appeared on an episode or two as Jackie's bestie last season.   Her close friendship with Mrs. Christie may explain why they look so eerily similar...

Sundy became an internet tale earlier this year when she (or a hacker, so she later claimed) tweeted a picture of her 16-year-old daughter having oral sex with the daughter's boyfriend.  And it was supposedly payback for her daughter acting out.  There was also drama with her asking for help all over her social media networks when she believed her daughter had been "taken" by her daughter's boyfriend (but was found a day later).
And there's more.

A few years ago, Sundy had a baby girl named Kennedy (pictured above).  And according to internet reports--which we have yet to see be denied by Sundy--the baby's father is NBA baller Larry Hughes.  Larry Hughes was and is still married to wife Carrie Hughes.  Larry & Carrie live together, have four children together, and portray themselves a a family in tact.  Except for this outside baby....
We're sure we'll hear more about all those situations once the show airs.
As for Sundy, she starred as Beanie Sigel's girlfriend in the urban classic State Property...and also a video or two.
She loves showing off her new clothes, new bags, new money (she never says from where but we def have our assumptions), and her bod on IG.  Here's pics of Sundy chillin' with Jackie during filming and more:….h/t TheYBF

Britney Spears Las Vegas Tickets Slow to Move 
Britney Spears fans slow to snap up tickets for her Las Vegas residency.

Britney Spears is back — or is she?
The 31-year-old singer’s new gig for a two-year residency of her stage show Britney: Piece of Me at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas has had dismal ticket sales, at best, and an industry insider exclusively tells RadarOnline.com that everyone involved with the show is really worried.
The numbers are in, and of the first 16 shows running Dec. 27 through Feb. 22, Spears has only sold out three shows.
“After spending hundreds of thousands on promo, they expected to instantly sell out all of the first 16 shows, but they didn’t come close!” the source told Radar.

“In fact, Britney only sold out three of the 16 shows put on sale and many are considering this a disaster.”
According to the insider, Las Vegas residencies in the past such as Celine Dion and Shania Twain sold out their first block of shows right away.
“There are nearly 50 shows a year and the theater is small…it only holds about 4,500 people,” the source said.
“So all of this put together really isn’t looking well for Britney. Ticket sales need to start skyrocketing or else there’s going to be a lot of disappointed investors and people involved with the show.”
As Radar previously reported, Spears is worth more than $44 million thanks to a blend of assets, property, cash and smart stock market trading — and will be raking in a reported $15 million per year of her residency, equaling $30 million total.

Beats By Dre receive $500 million to buy back its stakes from HTC
Beats by Dre headphones and soon to be mobile phones. Beats By Dre receive $500 million from The Carlyle Group to expand the brand. So basically Dre and Jimmy Iovine are getting a minority investor (The Carlyle Group) and buying back their ownership from the Asian mobile phone company HTC -(the Taiwanese cellphone maker bought half of Beats three years ago for about $309 million) so they can eventually compete with HTC and other mobile companies.

The press release reads:::
“Beats Electronics To Receive Minority Investment From The Carlyle Group.
Santa Monica, CA, and Washington, DC – Beats Electronics LLC (Beats), the audio brand co-founded by legendary artist and producer Dr. Dre and Interscope Geffen A&M Chairman Jimmy Iovine, announced today that The Carlyle Group (NASDAQ:CG), the global alternative asset manager, has agreed to make a minority investment in Beats. Carlyle will work with the Beats management team to continue expanding the brand and building the business both domestically and internationally. Additional terms of the transaction, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2013, were not disclosed.

Beats also announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to reacquire the minority stake in Beats held by HTC Corp. As a result, HTC will no longer have any ownership stake in Beats.

Beats Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Jimmy Iovine said, “These transactions represent the evolution of the financial strength and significant growth prospects of Beats. Carlyle is a fantastic investment partner and we look forward to building the next chapter of Beats.”

Carlyle Managing Director and Head of Consumer and Retail Sandra Horbach said, “We are confident that Beats will continue to drive innovation and growth in the premium audio accessory market, particularly as the proliferation of smart phones and tablets stimulate increased consumption of digital media. Carlyle has a strong history of helping great brands expand globally, and we are thrilled to partner with Jimmy Iovine, Dr. Dre and their talented management and product teams.”

In 2006, Iovine and Dre set out to solve the problem of poor sound quality caused by the digital revolution combined with the proliferation of cheap earbuds bundled with MP3 players, laptops, mobile phones and other portable devices. Their solution was Beats Electronics. Formally established in 2008, Beats comprises the Beats by Dr. Dre family of premium consumer headphones, earphones, and speakers as well as patented Beats Audio software technology. Through these offerings, Beats has effectively brought the energy, emotion and excitement of playback in the recording studio to the listening experience. This has introduced an entirely new generation to the possibilities of premium sound entertainment. Beats currently maintains a greater than 64% percent market share of the $100+ premium headphone category in North America.
Equity for Carlyle’s investment will come from affiliates of Carlyle Partners V, Carlyle’s $13.7 billion U.S. Buyout fund.
