#RHOA: Kenya Moore Accuses Kim Fields Of Thinking She Is Too Good For The RHOA Ladies; And Calls Out Phaedra Parks For Throwing Shade This Week!
Kenya Moore was especially vocal this week when it came to Kim Fields, and she was not afraid to throw some shade. Viewers thought Kenya and Kim were on good terms, given Kenya brought Kim into the group, yet as the season goes on it’s clear that is not the case. Kenya sat down with Bravo this week and dished on everything from the “beatless brunch” to how she felt about Phaedra’s diss in her interview!

Bravotv.com: Why did you think Kim was being shady with her beatless brunch?

Kenya Moore: We’ve seen Kim speak about the “group” in a negative way before. She told Phaedra that everyone had their breasts out at my Kenya Moore Hair Care launch party and she “missed class,” thereby calling us classless or trashy. She quipped before that we all looked like we were always on a red carpet and she often makes disapproving faces and comments while she is with us.

I’ve had a little too much of Kim’s self-righteous behavior. Her “beatless brunch” could have been to celebrate our natural beauty, which I think all of the women have, however, when her voice message specifically stated: “We need to be reminded what make up is for,” that is when the message was no longer positive for me and more judgmental and accusatory. Translation: “You all wear too much makeup and you need to learn to wear less, because I do not approve of how you look”.

BEING A QUEEN
I am a queen in more ways than one and I’m very comfortable in my own skin whether that is in red carpet makeup of none at all — flaws and all, it’s in my blood. As I stated, as ancestors of Nubian Queens such as Queen Nefertiti, I fully own who I am and will not allow another woman to make me feel lesser than. No woman should be made to feel as though another women does not approve of the way she looks whether it be her dress, makeup, hairstyle, Spanx, surgeries, etc… It’s all self-expression and to each his own. Further, Kim is the last person to tell someone how to look. You cannot encourage anyone to celebrate their natural beauty having had multiple cosmetic procedures and while wearing atrocious wigs made of fake hair… Nothing natural about that at all. Don’t judge lest ye be judged.

Bravotv.com: Did you feel like you got support from the ‘Wives when you opened up about your family reunion?
KM: I did during the brunch; however I was deeply offended that someone would state in their interview that “I cannot give love because I haven’t been loved.” I’ve had an army of people love and cherish me my entire life, it just wasn’t my mother. I may have a hard exterior sometimes because I am very guarded, but when I do love someone, there is nothing more powerful and meaningful, because I know what it is like to feel abandoned. So in some ways I may over compensate in that area.

Bravotv.com: Were you surprised that Kim didn’t want to co-produce Cynthia’scommercial?
KM: Kim believes she is too good for this group and too good to work with me. I guess she isn’t too good to need Cynthia’s check.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME
Thank you all for your many birthday wishes! I had a great time with Matt (@livefastfitness) and he gave me two beautiful new puppies I named King and Twirl. I also had a celebratory dinner. Thank you Cynthia,NeNe Leakes, and Sheree, my family and friends, and of course Matt for making it epic. And we all missed Kandi. (Side note: Phaedra couldn’t make it because she was too busy trying to come up with new ways to put me down for no reason).

I totally understand where Kim was trying to go with the “beatless brunch,” but given this was the first filmed event that she hosted, she probably should have come up with a better theme. I can also see why Kenya got offended, but none of the other ladies seemed phased by the theme so she probably should have just let it go. Kenya made it seem like she couldn’t live without makeup which was unnecessary, considering Kim didn’t even give her a hard time that she came with her face on.

Phaedra definitely threw some shade her way, but she and Kenya are always going back and forth like that this season; since they aren’t saying it to each other’s faces, of course they are saying it behind each other’s backs! Cynthia should have known that Kim and Kenya wouldn’t work well together and it will be very interesting to see the drama that comes from Cynthia choosing one ladies’ idea over the other!

Thoughts on Kenya’s blog? What did you think about “beatless brunch”? Whose side are you on; Kim or Kenya?

HIP HOP CONTROVERSY! Lil’ Kim’s Fans Debate Over Rapper’s Photoshopped Image on Twitter!
When it comes to female rappers, there’s always room for debate as to who sits on the throne. The Queen Bee Lil’ Kim‘s name is always thrown in the mix as one of the G.O.A.T. but now she’s in the conversation for a very different reason.
The internet doesn’t seem to be playing fair with images of the Brooklyn, N.Y. rhymer. The photos, which come from Kim’s performance at the BOOM Bash 2015 Concert on Dec. 12 in Philadelphia, showcase her rocking a black bodysuit while walking backstage. As fans point out on Twitter, her backside looks enhanced compared to the original image (above). A look below proves someone put their Photoshop skills to use. Social media is talking about the subject so much that Lil’ Kim’s name became a Trending Topic on Twitter.

Another image of the MC hitting the stage is also making its rounds. Caught in mid-action, Kim’s body also looks to be altered as a result of Photoshop. The slander from the Twitterverse is quick and heavy, with many failing to take into account that the images are altered. “How come Lil Kim look like one of the dancing raisins??” one person wrote on Twitter. “Lil’ Kim earned all the slander she get for paying a doctor to make her look like this,” wrote another.
Since the Hard Core rapper stepped out under the Notorious B.I.G.’s tutelage in the ’90s, she’s visibly altered her appearance through surgery. She tends to stay quiet on the subject but a look at her face over the last 20 years proves her appearance has changed quite drastically. With her derrière as the hot button topic on social media today, the people (from fans to critics) have taken notice of the change.
Find out what the people are saying below
Regardless of what Kimmy Boo we HEART YOU! The hell with the naysayers and bring us some new tunes SOON!

#SCANDAL NEWS: Shonda Rhimes Wins Legal Battle Against Woman Accusing Her of Script Theft
Shonda Rhimes scored a huge victory in the legal battle in which an author accused her of stealing her work and passing it off as her own, with the Federal Appeal Court siding with Rhimes and throwing out the author’s case.
The creator of hit shows like Scandal, Grey’s Anatomy and How to Get Away With Murder, was sued by a struggling writer named Debra Feldman, last year. The woman accused Rhimes of obtaining her manuscript for “The Red Tattoo” and using it as the basis for her now-cancelled ABC medical drama “Off the Map” — which focused on U.S. doctors working in a remote South America village.

Feldman claimed that Rhimes team knew NOTHING about medical treatment in a third-world island, so it was blantly obvious she stole her story.
Rhimes fired back at the allegations, explaining that Feldman had already attempted to sue her over another show for the same claims and it was dismissed years ago.

She stated that Feldman’s, “sweeping allegations, consisting of raw speculation about fantastical conspiracies, do not satisfy the Court’s pleading standards.”
In December 2014, the federal court judge came back with his decision and sided with Rhimes by dismissing the legal battle. The order stated that the judge watched all 13 episodes of “Off The Map” and notes that each episode he watched with “diminishing anticipation”.
He said that Feldman failed to prove the similarities between her work and Rhimes show. Further, no audience would find any reasonable similarities with the overall concept, pace, sequence, characters or plot between the works. The order notes that Feldman’s book features time travel and is not a jungle medical melodrama like Rhimes show.

The judge awarded Feldman NOTHING from her complaint and dismissed the entire case.
However, Feldman came back and filed an appeal of the decision the following month. She argued that the judge presiding over the case didn’t make the correct decision and attempted to have the Appeal Court reverse the original judgement.

Rhimes continued to deny any wrongdoing and demanded the author’s appeal be thrown out of court and the original order stay in place.
On January 20th, the Appeal Court came back and sided with the Scandal creator — stating that they affirm the original order and agree with the judge’s decision. The appeal was closed the same day.



Joseph Fiennes as Michael Jackson: Controversial Casting Adds Fuel to Hollywood’s Diversity Debate
With the entertainment industry currently embroiled in a debate over the lack of diversity in film, UK pay TV network Sky Arts may have picked the wrong time to announce that British actor Joseph Fiennes will play pop icon Michael Jackson in a new half-hour comedy special.

The project, “Elizabeth, Michael and Marlon,” will center around an unlikely road trip that Jackson and friends Elizabeth Taylor (Stockard Channing) and Marlon Brando (Brian Cox) allegedly took from New York to Ohio in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001.

In a statement regarding Fiennes’ casting, Sky Arts said, “‘Elizabeth, Michael and Marlon’ is a Sky Arts comedy which takes a light-hearted look at a reportedly true event; Joseph Fiennes is cast as Michael Jackson. It is part of a series of comedies about unlikely stories from arts and cultural history. Sky Arts gives producers the creative freedom to cast roles as they wish, within the diversity framework which we have set.”

But plenty of industry figures have taken issue with Fiennes and Hunnam’s casting, with director Lexi Alexander noting on Twitter, “The fact that the Joseph Fiennes & Charlie Hunnam whitewashing announcements are made during #OscarsSoWhite campaign says a whole lot.”



Blake Griffin Apologizes For Bashing Friend’s Face In
Blake Griffin is apologizing to the Los Angeles Clippers and their fans for bashing his friend’s face in. The power forward broke his hand during a weekend scuffle with the team’s assistant equipment manager, Matias Testi. The injury will sideline Griffin for at least a month.

After news of the fight leaked Tuesday, Griffin issued this statement on Twitter:
Matias and Griffin are close friends, but that friendship took a rocky turn after the men got into a fight outside a Toronto restaurant. Griffin will likely face disciplinary action from the team as well as the NBA because of the incident.



OMG! The BLOOD DRAGGING of Amber Rose, Wiz Khalifa by Kanye West In Nasty Twitter Feud!
Rappers Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa are getting everyone through their Wednesday morning by having one of the more epic Twitter battles of all time.

The back and forth initially ignited on Tuesday night after Ye announced that he was changing the title of his upcoming album Swish to Waves. That didn’t sit well with Wiz who had some unsolicited words for Yeezus. “Max B is the wavy one. He created the wave. There is no wave without him,” the Pittsburgh emcee noted, saluting Harlem artist Max B in the process.

Kanye acknowledged Wiz’s tweet, writing that he had respect for Max who is currently behind bars serving a 75-year prison sentence. That’s where things ended until 12 hours later when Ye decided to berate Wiz on Twitter for calling him out in the first place.

The 38-year-old fired over a dozen shots Wiz’s direction, accusing him of stealing Kid Cudi’s style.

The beef was then elevated to new levels when Yeezy suggested that Wiz’s ex-wife, Amber Rose, whom might we add once dated Kanye, trapped him by having their kid. Yikes!

Khalifa’s responses were relatively chill compared to his rival’s, simply stating that Ye “isn’t wavy” and is a “fool”. Kanye has since deleted his tweets, but not before we could screen grab them. 
YIKES!



K. Michelle Talks Upcoming Third Album & ‘My Life’ Season 2
K. Michelle‘s reality series, K. Michelle: My Life, returned to VH1 for Season 2 on Monday (Jan 25th). In addition to the show, the singer and reality star recently dropped a new single, “Not a Little Bit,” and is currently working on her third studio album.

She recently chatted with Billboard to talk her upcoming LP, as well as the second season of her show.
 “I want to be able to sing what I want,” she tells Billboard a day before “Not a Little Bit” drops. “If I want to be able to sing country, I want to be able to show that. I want to be able to sing ballads that touch the world and not just one demographic. I’m just not going to be told that because I’m black, I have to do this anymore. It’s just a variety of music that feels good.”

K, who formerly starred in Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, recently announced that she will popping back up on the show this year. She tells Billboard that one main difference about overseeing her own show is having the freedom to be the boss.
“You really get to be in detail with what goes on,” she explains. “I can’t control what the other girls do around me but when it’s my show, I’m the executive producer so I’m very much involved with what goes on and I’m very big on non-scripted — I don’t like scripted things. I like [for the show] to go with the flow. I can film how I wanna film. I can make it the truth and keep it the truth.”

A clip from the new season shows K getting a visit from Trina – the first person she says to have given her a feature when she entered the industry. She plays her new single for Trina prior to its release to get her opinion on its sound.

K. Michelle: My Life airs Mondays on VH1.
