Kelly Rowland's GORGEOUS Nude Maternity Pics For ELLE Magazine
Mommy-To-Be Ms. Rowland...or Mrs. Witherspoon...is totally glowing in her brand new maternity shoot for ELLE Magazine. Shot by actor (and expectant father himself) Lance Gross, Kelly is seen in the nude showing off her perfect baby bump.
She also snapped pics in a sleek satin gown, a menswear tux with her belly on full display, and oter free spirited looks. The fab chick revealed she only has a couple more weeks to go (and she's going into the studio before that!)....and she can't wait to embark on this journey with her husband.
Highlights from the story:
On staying fit while pregnant: Everybody always tells you to go crazy with food, and you can eat whatever you want. It's fine to have your cravings but I wanted an easier delivery. All the women that I've talked to, that have worked out, have such an easy and speedy delivery. Exercise really helps that. And I like being able to have peaceful sleep at night, though there's no such thing as that now in the last trimester [laughs]. To be honest, I did modify my exercise routine a bit by just listening to my body. I would tell my trainer [Jeanette Jenkins] "This move doesn't feel right," and we'd modify it. I still walk two miles everyday. I still work out. It's important to me.
On those pregnancy cravings: I love cherry pie and chocolate ice cream with peanut butter mixed in it. And I had a week straight where I was obsessed with nachos.
On her pre-natal beauty regimen: I've switched out anything with harsh chemicals. I use nothing but shea butter, pure cocoa butter and coconut oil. It's amazing how all of those things work so well for my skin. I'm going to continue to just use those after the baby gets here.
On navigating motherhood in the spotlight: I just plan to play it by ear. Everybody has their normal. And sometimes, award shows are a part of that. I have girlfriends who have that experience, and they'll say 'You know, I just really didn't want to be without my child today.' And it's just that simple. It's about finding your normal, whatever that may be.
On working with Lance on this nude shoot: I had a chance to work with Lance Gross during a video shoot for the ["Here I Am"] album, and I remember looking at his Instagram page, and seeing all these crazy hot photos. I texted him, and he said he's really been into [photography]. So we had been planning for a year to shoot and of course, I got pregnant and thought I'll have Lance shoot the photos for my pregnancy. Lance and I had all these great ideas and we just put our heads together to execute the looks. It was a lot of fun.
On why pregnant women shuold be proud of their nude bodies: I don't know why they would get flack. It's really—I won't say amazing—it's Godmazing [laughs] watching your body carry a human. I took a birthing class and I was amazed by all the things this woman was saying to me about birthing and what the body does naturally. Why wouldn't you want to celebrate that? The body should be celebrated.
On the Donna Summer bipic rumors sparked by her IG pic: All these rumors! I was just with my glam squad, we were having fun and we saw this beautiful picture of a Donna Summer record. I was like 'let's try to do this look!' I love Donna Summer. I love how she's this sex goddess, and she's so beautiful and powerful onstage. So we mocked up a cover and I posted a picture. That's all it was! But it would be an amazing opportunity to play her.
On her next projects: I go in the studio next week! I have a new watch with TW Steel called 'Canteen' which is casual, but still stylish. And because I've been shopping for this little one, and it's so hard to find stuff for boys, I'm intrigued to do a children's line.

Beautiful.

‘Shameless’ Star Jokes about Obama Being the Ebola Virus
*”Shameless” star Steve Howey tweeted a joke about President Obama Thursday that he ended up deleting shortly after Twitter became outraged.
The San Antonio-born actor tweeted Thursday: “People shouldn’t be so scared about this virus from Africa. He only has two more years of his presidency.”
Before he snatched the tweet off of his feed, it had already been retweeted by several of his followers, most of whom found it offensive, according to TMZ.
On “Shameless,” Howey plays Kevin Ball, the longtime boyfriend and baby daddy of Shanola Hampton’s character Veronica Fisher.
Blac Chyna Refusing to Hire Black Stylist at New Salon ?
Blac chyna maybe catching a little heat since she’s opened her new business “Lashed” beauty bar, she officially opened on Tuesday in Encino, CA and sources are already claiming that she is guilty of racial profiling employee candidates during the hiring process.
Sources claim they got a tip from an “ex-friend” of Chyna’s who alleges she “refused to hire any black people at her salon.” But Chyna talked to Rumorfix.com and denied the claims.
According to Rumorfix.com: we reached out to Blac Chyna who tells us the rumor is absolutely not true. In Fact, the Hollywood socialite Instagrammed a photo of her new crew, and Chyna tells us the girl pictured beside her is black.
This better be false and until confirmed, I will withhold my insults until I see what kind of patrons walk thru… . . You have to beware of ex friends…….
Tyler Perry Blown Away by ‘Gone Girl’
The 52nd New York Film Festival opening film and world premiere of “Gone Girl” was followed by a press conference. Spirits were high and all who attended were elated by the film’s enthusiastic reception.
One of the biggest buzzes about this engaging mind twister of a movie is that of Tyler Perry as defense attorney Tanner Bolt. On casting another director in his own right, director David Fincher was cognizant of Perry’s persona.
“I met Tyler and I was really taken with the fact that he’s so calming,” Fincher explained. “I didn’t want Tanner to be somebody who kind of projected this idea that you’re done. Now I’m taking over. It needed to be somebody going, ‘I hear you, I see you, I understand your pain. Now, you really need to step in front of a truck; that’s going to be the best thing,’ and I wanted that.”
Perry says he didn’t know that much about the book the film is based on, and thought it interesting when Fincher called.
“Then when I read the script, I was blown away,” he enthused. “And I said what can I bring to this and if he would give me this opportunity, which he did. I just wanted to do my absolute best. The character for me was so rich and I just thought ‘ease.’ This was David’s word to me every day, just ‘ease.’ It’s all about ease.’ He’s got it all together. So that’s what was pretty interesting to me and completely drew me into it.”
Working with Fincher upped Perry’s game and he had no qualms talking about it.
“For me it was the greatest learning experience I’ve ever had. I couldn’t even imagine learning more from any other director. I don’t think he sees like regular humans. I think he sees everything at once. He’s trying to paint this perfect tableau, and if one thing is out of place, it’s got to be redone. The level of brilliance and genius that it takes to make that happen was so impressive.”
Academy Award winning actor/director Ben Affleck was in tune with Perry in singing the praises of Fincher.
“When David called me, I thought I would have done ‘Phone Book’ with David. So it was a relief when I read ‘Gone Girl’ and it wasn’t just an alphabetical list of names; there was a story [Laughs]. To get a chance to work with a guy that you admire a great deal, particularly his work as a director, was great. Before all my movies that I’ve directed, all three of them, I watch ‘Se7en.’ I feel like it’s the most perfectly, meticulously thing. What kind of person makes a movie like this? It was a pleasure to be around him and a true learning experience. I loved it and would do it again and again and again.”
Summing up his cast choices, Fincher pointed out it was an organic process.
“It’s like putting together a team and figuring out if they’re going to work together,” he observed. “And there’s a gut instinct level to it but you also look at things that they naturally have and you can’t beat out of them with a tire iron.”
Beyonce x Jay Z Get CAMERA Happy
After house hunting with Blue Ivy in an upscale neighborhood in Paris near the French president’s estate, Beyonce and Jay Z are sharing new pics captured during their “couple” time.
The stylish one shared an outfit-of-the day-esque shot rocking a red Meow & Barks Boutique knit top with matching shorts, accessorized with a Chanel backpack and her fave black brim hat. Work!
Not be outdone by his wife, Hov also kept it stylish in a Palace Skateboards Cotch jacket.
Then the Hip Hop couple enjoyed a bite to eat…but not before Bey pulled out her camera for a little photoshoot fun. Say cheese!
She snapped a pic of Jay sippin' on a Tsingtao beer, flashing his ring.
And then Mrs. Carter stripped down to nearly nothing (bareface and all) to show off her flower crown. Beauty is her name.
Beautiful!

Justin Bieber’s New BFF: Karl Lagerfeld?
His reputation has taken quite a beating as of late, but that hasn’t stopped Justin Bieber from forming a friendship with noted fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld.
The “One Less Lonely Girl” crooner posted a collage of photos with the Chanel honcho and they looked pretty chummy together.
Justin also teased that there’s a collaboration in the mix, though he left out any helpful details- "Big things coming with my friend Karl Lagerfeld."
Given Lagerfeld’s multitude of talents, including photography, music video direction and creative instincts, there’s no telling what may or may not be in the cards for a Justin/Karl collaboration.

Hedi Slimane Distances Himself From YSL's Black Opium Fragrance Ad Campaign
Saint Laurent made it crystal clear that its creative director, Hedi Slimane, was not involved in the Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium fragrance ad campaign.
The brand took to social media to share the following press release.
"Hedi Slimane has been mentioned several times in the press in connection with the introduction in the market of Black Opium with Edie Campbell by Yves Saint Laurent Beauté (L'Oreal Group)."
"It is appropriate to [be] precise that no creative direction has been given by Hedi Slimane on the market launches and on the choices of artistic elements, or definition of image, related to the product lines or the advertising campaigns of Yves Saint Laurent Beauté, including the ones of Black Opium."
As we reported in August, while Saint Laurent isn't bringing in the most money for its parent company, Kering, it is its fastest growing brand. In the first half of 2014 ending on June 30, Saint Laurent's sales were at 320.6 million euros, which is 28 percent higher than the same period last year.
As The Wall Street Journal's Christina Binkley noted, Slimane is injecting some of the coolness that Saint Laurent had in the 1960s when it was fresher and newer back into the brand, and consumers are reacting positively.
What are your thoughts on the latest news of Slimane distancing himself from Yves Saint Laurent Beauté? Do you think there is a fine line between the brand staying on message and still being uniquely their own?
Akon Performs In A Bubble To Avoid Ebola
Either Akon doesn’t know how Ebola is transmitted or he’s just doing his usual thing. The “Locked Up” singer performed his set at the International Day of Peace in the Democratic Republic of Congo from the inside of giant plastic bubble. According to Yahoo! News he used the prop in order to crowd surf among all of the fans gathered for the outdoor concert.
Given the recent Ebola outbreak in Africa, some news outlets assumed that he only did it because he was afraid on contracting the virus. However, Akon has actually been using this bubble in his act since at least 2010.
