The Daily Buzz For July 8



ESPN unveils all 6 covers from the 2015 Body Issue COVERS!
ESPN unveiled the cover stars of ESPN The Magazine’s seventh annual Body Issue Monday. Washington Nationals star Bryce Harper is joined by Olympians Amanda Bingson and Chantae McMillan, Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kevin Love, 12-time Olympic medalist Natalie Coughlin, and New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. on the six different Body Issue covers.





As for other body issue pics. ODELL BECKHAM JR.
Sometimes I have too much confidence in my body. Like, ‘I’m good; I don’t need to do this today.’ That’s the reason I pulled my hamstring last year. I had been going since 3 years old, never any breaks — even summers I’m working out. That injury was long overdue. It wasn’t like I was doing anything other than normal, it was just like my body had been so overworked already.

BRITTNEY GRINER
I’d describe myself as athletically lanky. I want to show people that. I’m comfortable in my body and I don’t mind putting it on display. Honestly, I like how unique it is. My big arms, my bigger hands, these long legs-I love being different. If everybody was the same, it’d be a boring-a** world.

DEANDRE JORDAN
I’m all legs, that’s all I am. My torso is short. Fortunately for me, being 6-foot-11, I was going to have to get my pants tailor-made anyway.

Tinashe Received A Bunch Of Flowers And A Thank You Card From Janet Jackson 
Janet Jackson is still in many ways old school. She still takes the time to send beautiful thank you notes instead of texting “lol thanx.” The recipient of the superstar’s latest demonstration of good manners is Tinashe. “WOW, Thank you queen @janetjackson for the beautiful flowers and note, my whole day (actually life) has been made,” the “2 On” diva captioned a picture of stunning bouquet on Instagram. “I love you.”

“Tinashe, thank you for making the tribute so special,” the 49-year-old’s note reads. “Love and light always.” Of course, the tribute Janet is referring to occurred at the recent BET Awards. Tinashe joined forces with Jason Derulo and Ciara — I’m sure they received flowers too — to perform a medley of hits including “Pleasure Principle,” “All For You,” “If,” and “Rhythm Nation.” 
See Tee’s Instagram post below.
WOW, Thank you queen @janetjackson for the beautiful flowers and note, my whole day (actually life) has been made. I love you 

WERK! Are you inspired by Janet’s class?


New York City will host ticker-tape parade honoring (USWNT) U.S Women Soccer Team
On Tuesday, New York City mayor Bill de Blasio announced the city will hold a ticker-tape parade honoring the U.S. women’s national soccer team and their stunning World Cup victory.

It will be the first time in over 30 years that New York will host a ticker-tape parade for a team not based in the city.
The parade will take place along Lower Manhattan’s Canyon of Heroes on Friday at 11 a.m. ET. And if the photos from the team’s celebration in Los Angeles on Tuesday are any indication, the New York parade will be a great time.


“The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2” Unveils New Comic-Con Character Posters! 
As of late, Lionsgate has provided a steady stream of pre-release goodies ahead of “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2” November 20th release, and on Monday (July 6) a whole new set of promo posters hit the internet.
The new images feature Katinss, Peeta, FInnick, Gale and Prim all done up in war paint as they prepare for a full scale battle for the nation of Panem.

“The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2” stars Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks and Donald Sutherland. Per the synopsis, “Katniss confronts President Snow in the final showdown. Teamed with a group of her closest friends – including Gale, Finnick, and Peeta – Katniss goes off on a mission with the unit from District 13 as they risk their lives to stage an assassination attempt on President Snow who has become increasingly obsessed with destroying her. 
The mortal traps, enemies, and moral choices that await Katniss will challenge her more than any arena she faced in The Hunger Games.”


HMMMMMMMM, What New Role Did NeNe Leakes Want To Play In RHOA And How Much Money Did She Want?
Since NeNe Leakes announced her exit from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, numerous reports have come out regarding why she quit and if it was truly all her decision. Now, a new report has surfaced showing that her exit could have been prompted by the lack of compromise between NeNe and Bravo.
A source revealed  that NeNe’s demands for being a full-time cast member for the eighth season of RHOA were just too high for Bravo to agree to.

Her first demand was the money she would receive for being involved in the next season. Allegedly, NeNe was offered $2 million from Bravo, but she wanted $5 million. Even though these two amounts were way off from one another, the source says a deal between NeNe and Bravo could have been made.

“Bravo would have came up on their offer significantly, if NeNe hadn’t asked for all the rest of the stuff,” the insider explained.
NeNe’s second demand was creative control. Apparently, NeNe wanted to be much more than just a housewife for the eighth season.

The source continued, “NeNe felt that the producers would edit the show to make her look silly, or to encourage other cast members to attack her. So she wanted to be an official executive producer – with a say in how the show would be edited. She basically wanted to be able to write her own storyline, and edit it, and then have it air.”
NeNe’s reasoning for leaving was that she had a primetime show coming out in the fall, which ended up being ABC’s To Tell the Truth with Betty White. Other sources said she left due to her relationships with the other women and her family.

No matter why NeNe really left the show, her exit may not be concrete yet. According to the source, NeNe’s exit is not a done deal yet as NeNe and Bravo are still negotiating a deal.

What do you think about what this source had to say? Do you believe NeNe really wanted to be paid $5 million for the next season of RHOA along with being an executive producer? Do you think she should be an executive producer of the show?


Meet the Mackies! Remy Ma & Husband Papoose Join ‘Love & Hip Hop NY'!
Some fresh blood is joining the Love & Hip Hop franchise. Rapper Remy Ma (real name Reminisce Smith) and her husband Papoose (real name Shamele Mackie) are the newest cast members added to Love & Hip Hop New York.
Remy confirmed the news, Monday night on the Love & Hip Hop Atlanta After Party Live. 
She also posted a photo of her and Papoose with the caption:

"We the real Love & HipHop!!! #BlackLove #MeetTheMackies #RemyMa#RemyMafia #LHHNY #Season6#ThisCannotBeDuplicated"
Remy Ma must have had a change of heart, because last year (after her release from prison), Remy denied reports that she was joining the show. During an interview with Sway In the Morning, On Shade 45, she explained:

"That’s not something that I would want to do. I think certain things should be between you and your family members. And also, I can’t put myself in a situation where I might end up in prison again. I can’t tolerate people yelling at me, throwing things at me or spitting in my direction. I have to be cautious of the things I involve myself with."

P.S. What are your thoughts on Remy joining Love & Hip Hop NY? 


Promoter Cancels Ashanti Show After Nobody Showed Up
Over the weekend Ashanti was set to show up at Mixx Lounge in New York. In an Instagram post , the singer apologizes to fans, saying the club was abruptly shut down by the promoter and the police, so she did not get to make her appearance. Unfortunately, the promoter is singing a totally different tune.

In a post on the club's page, a patron asks whether or not the club was shut down by police. The club says that it wasn't the case. The club itself was actually open, but the promoter felt that it was "kind of light" so they cancelled Ashanti. At that point fans who paid $25-$40 and waited all night to see Ashanti took to her Instagram post to lash out. They confirmed police were not called and the club was never shut down. Ashanti then deleted the post, but who's really to blame?

Rosie Perez Leaves "The View"
That's a wrap for Rosie Perez on "The View," this according to Deadline.
The actress' appearances on the daytime talkshow have become few and far between as she is concurrently starring on Broadway in the production of Larry David's Fish in the Dark.  And now, she will be exiting the show after joining officially last September, according to reports.

With Broadway's grueling schedule, and the daytime talk show schedule not being so easy either, we can only wonder if it all became too much for the Hollywood vet.

Back in January, there were rumors that Rosie would be fired soon from the show.  Both ABC and Rosie's people shot down the rumors, but here we are six months later.
Rosie may not be the only person leaving this year as co-host Nicole Wallace (above, far right) isn't a guarantee to return next season.  On the contrary, Whoopi Goldberg and newcomer Raven Symone are locked in.  Deadline reports:

No word yet on the future of co-host Nicolle Wallace. Raven Symone, who only joined the show in June, and Whoopi Goldberg are locks to come back next season, but Wallace’s future is unclear. Sources report talks with Wallace have just begun. But, Wallace, a longtime political advisor as well as commentator, also is a contributor at NBC News’s MSNBC, and frequently appears on its Morning Joe program – more frequently as the presidential election cycle revs up. That said, The View has enjoyed some of its highest ratings during presidential election races and Wallace brings instant credibility to the show as well as a much needed conservative perspective.

Reportedly, "The View" will continue to circulate special guest hosts and contributors to fill the seats daily.  But should the show that Barbara Walters built call it a wrap soon?  Many are saying maybe so.
