The Daily Buzz For Dec 23



Kim Kardashian & Kanye West For Balmain
Balmain announced a new campaign with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West and now we have additional teaser shots from the spread. Featuring a variety of new attire from the forthcoming line, the “Disaster Movie” star and the “No Church in the Wild” rapper’s sessions was shot by Mario Sorrenti.

The Army of Lovers campaign from Balmain is the brainchild of Olivier Rousteing who just so happens to be close friends with Kim and Kanye.

Rousteing declared via Instagram, "I wanted to capture a moment of love. Kim and Kanye are style icons and friends. It is an honor to have them in this Balmain campaign. Together, they represent love, beauty and diversity. They are the new modernity."
Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian was especially excited about the preview- "Shut it down!!!!!! Yaaassssss!!! I am so in love with this picture!!! KiKi+Yeezy= [heart emoji] #Balmain @olivier_rousteing @kimkardashian.”


Joseline Hernandez Suspended from LHHA ?
Remember when Joseline attacked several cast mates on the reunion of LHHA?  With all the slack Mona Scott Young has been getting lately on glorifying ignorance via the media, it appears that Mona Scott is making an example out of Joseline’s violent behavior. Sources are reporting that Joseline will be suspended from LHHA for a few episodes.

“We were discussing reality tv and the new controversial show Sorority Sisters when the subject came up about Mona Scott Young being the producer of the show or not. We were all debating about that topic and that’s when we got on another topic and it was unveiled that “allegedly” reality star Joseline Hernandez was suspended from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta after fighting on the reunion show! My source went on to say that she has NOT filmed any scenes with any of the other cast members and has been put on lock down! Although they fired Althea and Benzino for what reason I don’t know but they played down the fact and kept it hush that Joseline has been indeed suspended till further notice! They have started production already and I know this for a fact. I remember seeing Mimi’s clothes laid out in her home with outfits that she had to film in for the week. Plus she told me they had started taping again. You guys know that Joseline and Stevie J has since moved out of that big mansion too that they were filming in and renting right? That mansion actually is owned by a friend of mine. They never owned it and only lived there for a few months. Thats what I tell you guys about smoke and mirrors! Plus dont Stevie J owe lots of back child support for all those kids? I dont think they will be buying any mansions no time soon.”


Hey Columbs Short, Who is your new CHICK?
Former “Scandal” star Columbus Short showed up at Gloria Govan’s party with a new chick on his arm. And it might possibly be his new girlfriend.

This is NOT the chick he was rumored to be dating a few months ago. You’ll recall, the still technically married Columbus was rumored to be dating an Instagram "personality" named Rasheeda Russell back in October. Well…it appears the two may have broken up because there is not one sign of her on his Instagram any longer, nor is he on hers.
But there are several pics of his new chick: fitness specialist Agostina Laneri (above). The twosome have been spending a lot of quality time together. They have been spotted spreading holiday cheer recently, giving gifts to those less fortunate:


Cameron Diaz Engaged to Benji Madden
Cameron Diaz is about to be a married woman she is engaged  to her boyfriend, Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden.. You can thank his sister in law Nicole Richie for hooking the two up…
According to US Weekly: The Charlie’s Angels actress, 42, who has previously dated Justin Timberlake and Alex Rodriguez, amongst others, first stepped out with Madden, 35, in May of this year. And after a whirlwind seven-month romance the happy couple are ready to make things official!

“Everyone thinks it’s wild but are so happy for them,” one source told Us. “Benji always tends to fall in love easily, but this time it’s for real and he landed a great girl. They obviously both make each other incredibly happy and there’s nothing better than that.” In fact the couple have Diaz’s pal (and soon-to-be sister-in-law) Richie to thank for their happiness.

“I approve of anything that’s going to make Benj happy,” the mom-of-two told Watch What Happens Live’s Andy Cohen back in July. Did she set them up? “Yes,” she answered. “I’m going to take responsibility for everything!”
Another family member who will be skipping with joy about their happy news is Diaz’s mom, who is a big fan of the heavily tattooed rocker.

“Billie has been gushing about Cameron’s new relationship,” a source told Us previously of the union. “She absolutely loves Benji and she hopes this is the man her daughter will finally settle down with.”
Looks like mom got her wish!

Does this mean she’ll stop talking about not wanting to get married and  have kids in every interview she does? Congratulations


Lady Gaga & Mariah Carey: Beacon Theater Buddies
Tis the season for new friendships, and Lady Gaga got a special surprise when she attended Mariah Carey's holiday show in New York City.

The “Poker Face” songstress ended up hanging with the “All I Want For Christmas Is You” diva backstage at the Beacon Theater where they took several snapshots together. Gaga posted a photograph with Mariah and added the caption, “Hey ladies, Merry F*cking Christmas. Love, Mariah and Gaga.”
Furthermore, Lady Gaga told her Little Monsters, "This lady is so kind, such a star, and sounding legendary tonight at Beacon Theatre." Carey also chimed in with her own social media post- "Taking a selfie with the beautiful @ladygaga! Merry Christmas!!"


Joe Cocker Passes Away At 70
His contribution to the music industry is immeasurable and sadly Joe Cocker has died of an undisclosed illness. The 70-year-old singer captivated listeners of all generations with his signature raspy voice on both cover songs and his own hits over the course of multiple decades.
Cocker’s agent Barrie Marshall told press “Joe was simply unique. It will be impossible to fill the space he leaves in our hearts.”

"He was without the doubt the greatest rock/soul voice ever to come out of Britain- and remained the same man throughout his life. Hugely talented, a true star, but a kind and humble man who loved to perform. Anyone who ever saw him live will never forget him."

Joe’s massive hit songs include “With a Little Help From My Friends,” “Up Where We Belong,” “Feelin’ Alright.”


Sony Emails Reveal Studio Head Wants Idris Elba For The Next James Bond
Leaked emails show Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal confessing that the dashing Elba should be 007. Plenty of the Sony emails have focused on Sony’s prized horse—the James Bond franchise, including the 24th Bond flick Spectre, scheduled to hit theaters on November 6, 2015. Reports have indicated that the script has leaked, the film’s budget ballooned to over $300 million, and that it may feature Blofeld as the villain.

For years, there’s been a lot of online chatter suggesting that Idris Elba, the suave British actor, should be the next James Bond—making him the first black 007.

Current superspy Daniel Craig has even voiced his desire to vacate the post, telling Rolling Stone in 2012, “I’ve been trying to get out of this from the very moment I got into it. But they won’t let me go, and I’ve agreed to do a couple more, but let’s see how this one does, because business is business and if the #### goes down, I’ve got a contract that somebody will happily wipe their a$s with.” Craig is signed on for just one more Bond flick after Spectre.

When The Daily Beast spoke to Jamie Foxx earlier this year, coincidentally for the Sony flick The Amazing Spider-Man 2, he said he was a big fan of the idea of a martini-sipping Elba. “I ran into Idris and I said, ‘You know you’re the mother####in’ James Bond, right?’” Elba himself has admitted he’d love to play the role if offered.

It seems Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal is a big fan of the idea, too.
An email sent on January 4, 2014, from Pascal to Elizabeth Cantillon, former executive vice president of production for Columbia Pictures, which distributes the Bond films, simply says, “Idris should be the next bond.”

Well what do you think?


HIGHER LEARNING: Q-Tip SCHOOLS Iggy Azalea On The History Of Hip Hop Culture and T.I. RESPONDS!
Iggy Azalea has been catching hell lately by entertainers in the game for her “white privilege” that she seems to be oblivious to.

Iggy’s nemsis Azealia Banks went in on the “Fancy” rapper for cultural smudging during an interview recently, which resulted in Solange co-signing Azealia’s comments. J-Cole made a song titled “Fire Aquad” dissin’ the Australian raptress (and a few others) for appropriating black culture. And now…Q-Tip is joining in. But, he’s taking a much different approach.

One of Hip Hop’s most influential innovators hopped on Twitter to school Iggy on the history of the culture. In a long series of tweets, Q breaks down how Hip Hop was created, why it was created and why many black artists today frown upon her using Hip Hop to get ahead when her lyrics and "image"  are ingenuine at best and completely fraudulent at their worse, seeing that her life does not seem to have been the "hardships" and roughness she likes to rap about.

Rather than bash Iggy, he said he hopes his words can spark a healthy dialogue about the real meaning of Hip Hop.

Here’s what he said:
@IGGYAZALEA  HipHop is a artistic and socio-political movement/culture that sprang from the disparate ghettos of NY in the early 70's. Coming off the heels of the CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT and approaching the end of the Vietnam war it was a crossroads 4 America, specially for blacks in the US our neighborhoods were PROLIFERATED w/a rush of HEROINE. Our school systems here in NY dungeon traps with light for learning blk men some of whom didn't return from tours of duty n the ones who did came w/war baggage (agent orange, addiction, ect..) These men had families but due to these events and throw into the mix the public emasculation...The proved to be handicapped parents. The surrogate parents? The STREETS. The streets of gangs, crimes, and the hustlers coddled us and swept us up but! Being a spirited, rhythmic & expressive people music art dance outlined our existence. It proved a way for us to exhault to scream to dance to laugh and find OUR VOICE. We weren't at the time skilled musicians as kids. We had records, turntables, ideas and INGENUITY. Being natural chemist we took from whatever was availed to us and we created something mighty and special. We cut breakbeats back n forth we took a hybrid of Jamaican toasting along w/ radio jock rap( hank Spann, Gary Byrd, ect.) and we put our rap down..

It was a neighborhood thing really. Black and Latino Kids were carving out their space and it became infectious. Eventually Keith Cowboy coined the phrase hiphop . Yrs later the first rap record was recorded and now we r moving. But during these strides this country still had the monster of racism and racial insensitivity breathing and ruling believe it or not young black n Latino lives specifically weren't acknowledged in mainstream American culture unless Of course…the convo was abt gangs , being criminals or uneducated. And hey! Like I stated early our families were rushed our schools sucked and we were left to put devices to survive but HIPHOP showed that we had DEPTH, fire, and BRILLANCE. The music was undeniable! It moved from NY N became national and even GLOBAL. Hiphop now was FOR EVERYBODY!! All of those who cld relate to the roots, the spirit, the history, the energy.. It reached YOU it touched your spirit n took u up. We magnetized you! That's what BRILLANCE does.

Now u are fulfilling your dreams ... BUT! you have to take into account the HISTORY as you move underneath the banner of hiphop. As I said before hiphop is fun it's vile it's dance it's traditional it's light hearted but 1 thing it can never detach itself from is being a SOCIO-Political movement. U may ask why ... Well once you are born black your existence I believe is joined with socio-political epitaph and philos based on the tangled and treacherous history SLAVERY alone this is the case, it never leaves our conversation... Ever. WeAther in our universities our dinner tables our studios or jail cells. The effects still resononates with us. It hurts... We get emotional and angry and melancholy. Did u know president Clinton was the ONLY PRESIDENT to apologize for it? did u know that remnants of slavery exist today thru white privilege? When certain "niceties" r extended your way because of how u look? Isn't that crazy? I say this 2 say u are a hiphop artist who has the right 2 express herself however she wishes. This is not a chastisement this is not admonishment at ALL this is just one artist reaching to another hoping to spark insight into the field you r in. I say this in the spirit of a hopeful healthy dialogue that maybe one day we can continue. I've been on twitter a long time and this will probably be my last series of tweets pretty much but I'm Kool with it as long as I got to share this w u. Zzzzzzz's up! Peace!

Let's hope Iggy took a few notes....And in case you may have forgotten. Let's not forget on Iggy's track "D.R.U.G.S", she refers to herself as a SLAVE MASTER while twisting her wrist as if she's holding a whip. While she "apologized", her comments about the recent anti-police brutality movement & protests across the world that were born out of seemingly racist police acts have not helped.

Folks are not taking kindly to the fact the same woman who is proudly accepting her "queen of hip hop" title mainstrmam media gave to her, also said this movement "has nothing to do with her" and alluded to her tour and self-promotion being more important to promote on her social media accounts.

THIS should explain why many are fed up with Ms. Azalea.
In response to Q-Tip, T.I. took to Twitter to defend his protege Iggy Azalea, and offered a pep talk for dealing with haters. Look at the Tweets below!
WELL?????


Tyga Wants Custody of King Cairo, Calls Black Chyna a Bad Mother…TRUE OR FALSE?
It’s getting real messy between Blac Chyna and Tyga, he’s claiming that she’s unfit to be a parent, because she twerks and parties too much …
Tyga is alarmed that Blac Chyna seems more interested in hitting the clubs than parenting their 2-year-old son King Cairo, so we’ve learned he will file legal docs asking for primary custody.

The rapper thinks his baby mama has lost her focus on caring for the little boy … she’s more interested in making a spectacle of herself … twerking day and night when there’s a camera in sight.

According to TMZ, He lost it when he saw the double twerk featuring Blac Chyna and Amber Rose. And when she went out later that same night and partied at a club, he decided he was going to take her to court. He says he does not want his son raised by nannies.

Well Tyga says NO IT’S NOT TRUE! Tyga went ballistic on TMZ for conjuring up the fake report.
LOL!!!
