Sam Smith And His Chest Hair Cover ‘V’ Magazine’s Music Issue
Sam Smith had an undeniably huge 2014—he was MTV’s Artist of the Year, for one!—and things show no sign of slowing down in 2015. In addition to having an envy-inducing vacation, Sam is kicking off the new year with a V Magazine cover.
The cover, which was shot by Inez and Vinoodh and styled by Mel Ottenberg, features Sam and his chest hair. Like, so much chest hair. If you can peel your eyes away from his pecs, you’ll notice that Sam’s hair game is, as always, strong, and below his eye is the word “true.”
Sam is not the only star of V’s Music Issue—Jessie Ware and Tinashe also landed on the front of the mag, but he revealed there are “four amazing girls” he shares the cover with, so we are eagerly awaiting the other two.
Who can they be?! We’ll find out soon!
Taraji P. Henson READS "Power" Executive Producer 50 Cent After Shading “Empire” Series and HE CLAPS BACK!
Lee Daniels' new drama series “Empire” premieres tonight on FOX. And right before its debut, one of the show’s leading stars is clapping back at the haters.
Taraji P. Henson, who plays Terrence Howard’s character’s ex-wife Cookie on the new show, isn’t one to shy away from how she really feels when asked. And for her latest Twitter dust up, the 44-year-old actress has some words for 50 Cent!
A little back story....A few weeks ago, 50 Cent (who is the executive producer of STARZ series “Power") was on one of his usual trolling sprees on Instagram. Dude must have been feeling like "Empire" would be a little tv competition because he went on an IG rant about how the FOX series jacked marketing strategies and promotional ideas from his show. He wrote,
“POWER Season 2 is unbelievably good trust me. I have the best writers and show runner. I like Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson. I don’t like that they would copy the marketing.”
The STARZ series co-star and executive producer then went on with more comparisons. Using the two lead stars of the respective shows (Omari Hardwick & Terrence Howard), 50 made a picture collage of them side-by-side asking fans to pick who they liked best. Oh Fif....
Anywho, Taraji and Terrence initially ignored 50’s accusations (as they should), but when a fan asked the No Good Deed star how she felt about 50's shade, she didn’t hold back. She responded saying, "I pay attention to $'s NOT cents?" Bloop!
Check it below:
Well The G-Unit leader has now fired back in a Instagram video, but the business mogul expressed the shot was all in good fun.
The caption for 50’s IG vid reads:
I’m at CES 2015 working #SMSAUDIO [Taraji P. Henson] don’t be mad at me.lol. I love your work girl.#FRIGO#EFFENVODKA #POWERTV
In the clip 50 says: That fine motherf**ker Taraji talking about me? I was gonna date that motherf**ker. I’m gonna have to think about this s**t now.

Mariah Carey REPORTEDLY Signing Multimillion-Dollar Residency At Caesar's Palace
Investors at Ceasars Palace are ready to gamble on Mariah Carey. Despite putting on a shaky concert series at the Beacon Theatre, which received mixed reviews, the big wigs in Las Vegas are convinced that Mariah still has the goods to shine as their marquee act.
Page Six leaked the news this week that Mariah is very close to inking a residency at Caesars Palace that could be worth more than Britney Spears’ two-year, $30 million contract. Cha Ching! We guess she ain't so elusive after all...
Mimi's Vegas act could hit the Strip before the 2015 holiday season. The move could prove to be a good thing for Dem Babies, since they'll be in Vegas and daddy Nick Cannon is a short flight away in LA.
Something tells me they’ll regret this! But good luck Mariah!
Jesus Take The WHEEL! ‘Preachers’ Exes’ Looking for a Reality Show Pickup
*A group of women have gotten together for a common goal, but they didn’t start a book club!
Instead they call themselves “Preachers’ Exes” and are shopping around for their reality TV series to be picked up.
The show was inspired by the book, “3PM: The Preacher. The Power. The Penis & Me,” written by executive producer Cheron K. Griffin.
The pilot will showcase how “most churches have mess from the pulpit to the pew.”
And the show will feature Griffin with other former preachers’ exes: Lynn Littlejohn, Ysidra Kyles, Rochelle Mudd, Chinaza Duson and DiShan Winters. But the names of the preachers they were married to are disclosed.
LOL WATCH:
“America has been afraid to deal with the issues of the pastor and those who have been involved with the pastor,” reads the show’s description on Facebook.
The exes will tackle many issues they have faced while married to their husbands: infertility, miscarriages, cheating and a marriage to a gay preacher. The pilot features typical reality TV confrontations while these women celebrate being free, battle their demons and ask God for forgiveness.
I don’t see this show going ANYWHERE!

“Girls” Season Four Premiere Brings Out The Stars
Gearing up for another crazy estrogen-fueled adventure, the cast of “Girls” gathered at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City on Monday.
Lena Dunham was all smiles as she hammed it up with boyfriend Jack Antonoff while Allison Williams, Zosia Mamet and Jemima Kirke enjoyed the company of “Mad Men” hunk Jon Hamm and his lovely lady Jennifer Westfeldt.
Ms. Dunham recently addressed rumors that she and her rock star beau had secretly gotten engaged over the holidays. Lena explained, "He was, like, 'My mom called asking if we were engaged?’ She was like, on him. I also just want to say that if we were going to get engaged, we would be more creative than to do it on New Year's Eve. You don't want to be basic."
Toya & Memphitz Wright Supposedly Set To File Separation Papers, Living On Separate Coasts?
This past Holiday season seemed to be the season of breakups. Plenty of couples in Hollywood filed papers to join Splitsville Lane. And it looks like Lil Wayne's ex Toya Wright and her husband of three and a half years, Memphitz, are next on that list.
Sources tell TMZ that the two, who appeared on the BET reality show "A Family Affair", are living separately and on separate coasts. Memphitz picked up and moved to L.A. while Toya stayed back in Atlanta.
Those same sources allege that the reason the marriage is coming to an end is that Memphitz says he "no longer wants to be a part of a celebrity marriage". He's now about "business." We're not sure what business exactly, but we'll quite possibly find out soon.
No divorce papers have been filed, but sources allege that Memphitz will "let" Toya make the first move and file for separation. And Memph has supposedly told friends there is no hope for reconciliation.
Toya & Memphitz did not appear to ring in the New Year together, based on Toya's SEVERAL Instagram pics with her husband noticeably missing. We noticed that Memphitz has been using his account, which is unusually absent of pics with Toya for over a month (besides their family Christmas card), to air out his relationship problems. He said plenty of things about trust and love not being what they seem. Then, Toya joined in with an odd message about love last week that said forever isn't permanent. Hmmm...
We also noticed that Memphitz has been spending a lot of time going hard at his ex K.Michelle, posting naked pics of himself and posting inappropriate pics of random naked women. Sure signs some ish is going down in your marriage.
The last time the two were seen publicly together was Reginae Carter's Sweet 16, where they interestingly didn't snap any photos together. they were both seen on video giving Toya's daughter Reginae ONE of her birthday cars...
Oh, and about that rumor that Memphitz knocked up another woman (we don't necessarily believe this one), sources allege Memphitz had a vasectomy years ago so there can be no baby.
The Wrights became one in June 2011 in a made-for-BET wedding in Atlanta. Both Memphitz's daughter Mikkaya and Toya's (and Lil Wayne's) daughter Reginae were a part of the festivities.
So much for those constant kiss-kiss and vacation photos on Instagram, those magazine photoshoots together and that new reality show they were trying to sell.
J. Cole Finally Heading Down The Aisle After Alleged “Break Baby” Rumors Die Down
Roc Nation rapper Jermaine Lamarr Cole also known as J. Cole and longtime girlfriend of 10 years Melissa Heholt are finally walking down the aisle! The young successful couple met while attending St. John’s University in Queens NY, where she had a double major and is now a very sought after wedding planner in New York City.
The 29- year-old J. Cole just released his third studio album “Forest Hills Drive” on December 9, 2014 and has been hard at work promoting his album, touring and creating new music.
J. Cole reportedly proposed to Melissa in 2010 but we never saw a ring and earlier this year the blogs were alleging that J. Cole had a “break baby” with a woman named Bria who was posting suggestive images on social media. Since then we haven’t heard much from Bria or the couple until now!j cole 2
Sources close to the couple say the North Carolina native J. Cole gave Melissa a flawless four carat diamond ring and they already have the date and location set.
We wish the couple all the best and we know the wedding will be spectacular if Melissa has anything to do with it!
Naomi Campbell and Mike Tyson Hooked up Back in the Day?
A new tell all book is out about the former Champ Mike Tyson and in this segmemt Mike Tyson’s former friend Rory Holloway exposes the night he hooked up with Naomi Campbell in a night club in NYC…
According to Page Six:
The pair met at a Russell Simmons party and as Holloway tells it, hit it off immediately.
“I was there to keep Mike out of trouble, doing my usual babysitting job, and when I looked over, he was talking to this girl,” Holloway writes.
“I had to rub my eyes. I mean, the most exciting thing at that time was Naomi Campbell. She was wild and vivacious, with these legs that went on for days.
“I’m stuck holding their drinks ‘cause Mike says he gotta use the restroom. Next thing I know, Naomi’s following him in there. Holy s–t. Guests are walking up. ‘Bathroom’s taken,’ I’m telling them.
“Minutes go by and it’s getting uncomfortable. I finally crack open the door, ‘C’mon Mike.’ I see Naomi. She’s up on the toilet, heels and long legs spread, skirt hiked up, and Mike’s pumping away.”
Holloway’s book features dozens of stories like these.
Mike Tyson and Rory Holloway were childhood friends until they fell out in the 90s.
HMMMMMMMMM!!!!
OOOOPS, Charlie Sheen Twitter Rants About Kim Kardashian!
TMZ reports that actor Charlie Sheen ranted about Kim Kardashian on Twitter and accused her of “allegedly crushing a little girl’s dream.
Here are the details…Apparently, actor Charlie Sheen was not happy with recent information shared with him concerning reality star Kim Kardashian‘s treatment of a 6-year-old girl who requested her autograph. According to TMZ, Sheen says a friend told him about the girl who was a big fan of Kardashian and said that the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star “turned the kid down flat.” Sheen added that the young girl still cries about the unfortunate event nightly.
It seems that the incident really pissed Sheen off and, per TMZ, he tweeted “you are lucky that ANYONE cares about your gross and giggly [sic] bag of funk you dare call an ass” and “your public loves u. give something back or go f yourself.” He even took a shot at Kardashian’s husband, rapper Kanye West with this quip: “My apologies to your hubby, great guy I’m sure, I hope his vision returns one day.” The posts have now been deleted from Sheen’s Twitter page.
What do you think about this? Do you think this is just another random rant from Sheen or do you believe there’s some truth behind it and Mrs. Kardashian-West was completely in the wrong?
Essence Magazine Devotes Entire Issue to ‘Black Lives Matter’
Essence, one of the nation’s leading black women’s magazines, has just unveiled an entire issue dedicated to the #BlackLivesMatter movement. The issue focuses heavily on black women of the movement with pieces by Angela Davis, Susan L. Taylor, Melissa Harris-Perry, Isabel* Wilkerson, Michelle Alexander, Chirlane McCray and more.
It’s an especially important move by the magazine given that the #blacklivesmatter hashtag and movement was founded by three black women: organizers Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors and Opal Tometi.
Vanessa K. De Luca, the magazine’s editor-in-chief, wrote that the issue marks the first time in the magazine’s 45-year history that it hasn’t featured a cover image.
Pictures are powerful, but so are words. That’s why we’ve invited some of our greatest thought leaders—you included—to help us answer the question on our minds at the moment: Where do we go from here? Beginning this month, inspired by you, we are launching Civil Rights Watch, a new series across our platforms in which we will be chronicling—and calling out—significant gains, losses and solutions in this evolving movement as we all try to find a constructive path forward.
The protests, die-ins, marches and social media campaigns that have been born out of our collective grief have given you an opportunity to express your outrage, show your support for the victims and their families whose lives have been forever changed, and forge alliances with like-minded individuals who also believe that it is time for a change. It gives me hope that so many young people are leading the way, people like Patrisse Cullors, Opal Tometi and Alicia Garza, the brave and beautiful women behind the BlackLivesMatter movement. When we asked Patrisse for their permission to use their poignant battle cry as the centerpiece for our story, she graciously agreed.
Miley Cyrus’ Bloody Nose Snapshot Follows Drug Rumors
Never one to censor herself, Miley Cyrus posted a selfie via Instagram in which she appears to be bleeding from her nose.
The 22-year-old “Party in the USA” songstress captioned the photograph “Ew,” and most likely it’s nothing more than a bloody nose caused by the dry winter air. However, The Sun previously published allegations suggesting that Cyrus was witnessed doing cocaine just prior to the photo.
They wrote, “Miley Cyrus sits working in her unicorn onesie opposite what appears to be a table covered in drugs,” and cited a supposed source that said, “It was a pretty sleazy situation. In front of her is a table covered in what looks like cannabis, a packet of cigarette papers, a rolled up dollar bill and a vial of white powder."
Butt Implants EXPLODED Inside Popular Exotica Model
Brazilian TV host and supermodel Andrea Teresa Marach (Andressa Urach) was recently rushed to the hospital, when her butt implants EXPLODED – after being infected.

Male College Student Copies Beyonce, Nicki Minaj & More Divas On Instagram
Mina Gerges, a 20-year-old college student from Canada, has become Insta-famous thanks to his recreational hobby of recreating photo shoots from the likes of Beyoncé, Rihanna and Kim Kardashian onto his social media accounts.
Via BuzzFeed:
“I make everything myself,” he said, describing a process that takes about two hours for each photo. “I purchase curtains and hold them with pins, and everything else I put on them I stick with glue.”
Mina said he’s aiming for people to see overexposed celebrities in a new light, highlighting the photoshop extremes of some celeb pictures which Mina says promote an unrealistic body image.
As fate would have it, Instagram snatched down Gerges’ account at the height of his conquest to break the Internet but we’ve recovered several of his big time parodies that you can see below
