#REBELYELL Rebel Wilson Scores March 2016 Cover Of FLARE Magazine
She has some serious career momentum building as of late, and Rebel Wilson
is stunning on the front page of FLARE magazine’s March 2016 issue.
Sporting a Stop Staring black dress teamed with a white faux fur accessory,
the “Pitch Perfect 2” starlet poses up a storm for photographer Nino
Munoz.
As for the rumors that she’s been lying about her age, Rebel told FLARE, “
An actress has a playing age and can play within that, so why does it
matter what her actual age is? I don’t get that. My movie was No. 1 and [the
Australian press] tried to find anything they could that was bad on me.
The most they could find out is that I stopped saying my age in press articles. It
’s a business thing because you don’t want to be like, ‘Oh, I’m 29,
about to be 30 coming to America, great.’ That’s not a positive thing to do
when you’re an actress in Hollywood.”

#RHOA: Kenya VS Kim Part#2 Kim Fields Hopes Kenya Moore Gets The Help She Needs
Kim Fields reacts to rumors! When it comes to the weekly Bravo blogs, some of the stars write novels
and others keep it short and to the point. Real Housewives of Atlanta star
Kim Fields seems to fall into the “ain’t nobody got time for this nonsense”
category. She didn’t write a blog this week, but instead answered a few
quick questions.
Kim didn’t have a whole lot to say on the subject of gay rumors surrounding
her husband Chris, stirred up in Jamaica by resident drama starter Kenya
Moore. When asked what was going through her head when she saw Kenya bring
up the rumor, “Kim’s inner monologue at that moment: I sincerely hope she
gets the help she needs.” We’re sure Kenya’s response will be swift…
She may not want to talk gay rumors, but Kim did want to gush over how
proud she is of Chris and all of the hard work he does. When asked what his
background is and what projects he’s currently working on, she shared “The
producing side has come from a culmination of all of Chris’ talents. He
began co-producing our travel and Christmas specials. He currently has an epic
historical project in development. He is also in rehearsals at the Aurora
theater currently as Prince Charming in Into the Woods. Very proud of him!”
Kim was then asked about Cynthia Bailey’s ‘mercial. Side vent: I thought
the words ‘beatless brunch’ made me stabby from hearing it over and over
and over, but after 72,000 utterances of ‘mercial, I’ll take beatless
brunch back, thanks. Back to Kim. She says that everyone was had a lot of fun
on set and acted like adults while filming it, “The ladies and the gents
were all so professional and so much fun! I had a great time working with
them. Everyone involved in the ‘mercial took direction very well.”
We’ll get to see the genius of this commercial in the season finale.
New Music Video: Bilal – I Really Don’t Care
Bilal always delivers a unique flavor in his music. Today, the alternative
neo-soul artist continues to expand on his artistry with the premiere of
the video for “I Really Don’t Care.”
In the visuals, Bilal’s individuality shines as he laments over a lonely
heart. Directed by longtime collaborator Hans Elder, the images reflect the
singer-songwriters melancholy mood. He meanders around his apartment, doing
everything from taking a morning sh*t to hitting a bong and a spliff.
The Philly native explains that, “the song represents that one last
desperate attempt to find love again.” It hard to believe that this dynamic
Grammy Award nominee doesn’t have a love to call his own.
Bilal’s fifth studio album In Another Life is available now, check out the
raw visuals for “I Really Don’t Care” HERE!
Nice!
Prince Dedicates Australian Show To Denise ‘Vanity’ Matthews
Even though they hadn’t been a couple since the 80’s, the death of Denise ‘Vanity’ Matthews must have hit Prince pretty hard.Currently on tour in Australia, Prince dedicated his Melbourne show to Matthews, who had been battling illness for some time. The Herald Sun in Australia reports that Prince’s intimate show was reworked to pay homage to Matthews, who died yesterday at 57 after a long illness.
The Herald Sun reports: His first Melbourne show at the State Theatre was particularly emotionally charged — Prince admitting he’d just found out about the death of Denise Matthews, aka Vanity, his ex-girlfriend from the early ‘80s and protoge when she fronted the band Vanity 6.
“Someone dear to us has passed away, I’m gonna dedicate this song to her,” Prince said before playing a touching version of “Little Red Corvette” with a touch of “Dirty Mind” — songs from the era when they were together.
Prince reworked his classic “The Ladder” to replace the name ‘Electra’ with ‘Vanity’ — so the lyrics ran “This Prince, he had a subject named Vanity who loved him with a passion, uncontested.”
After an encore Prince returned to the stage noting “I am new to this playing alone. I thank you all for being so patient. I’m trying to stay focused, it’s a little heavy for me tonight. Just keep jamming … She knows about this one.” That introduced a truly incredible version of
“The Beautiful Ones,” another song from the Vanity era (she was the original choice for lead in the Purple Rain movie), the song ending with Prince changing “my knees” for “Denise … Denise”.
Unusually chatty and candid, he continued going off script. “Can I tell you a story about Vanity? Or should I tell you a story about Denise? Her and I used to love each other deeply. She loved me for the artist I was, I loved her for the artist she was trying to be. She and I would fight. She was very headstrong cos she knew she was the finest woman in the world. She never missed an opportunity to tell you that.”
Prince then opened up about a fight where he threatened to throw Vanity in the pool. She said “You can’t throw me in the pool, you’re too little”. He then asked his six foot bodyguard Chick to do the dirty work for him.
“I probably shouldn’t be telling this story,“ he said, “but she’d want us to celebrate her life and not mourn her.”
#FORMATIONISSUES? TN Sheriff Blames Beyonce’s ‘Formation’ Video for Shots Fired Into his Home
A Tennessee sheriff whose home was allegedly shot at on Monday night believes he might have been targeted because of “Beyoncé’s “Formation” video.
In Tuesday’s press conference about the shooting at his home, Rutherford County Sheriff Robert Arnold cited fatal police shootings in North Dakota, Georgia, and Maryland in recent weeks as the most plausible reason for the alleged attack.
“You do make people mad when you do do your job,” he said. “Once I kind of figured everything out, with everything that’s happened since the Super Bowl—since law enforcement as a whole, where we’ve lost five deputy sheriffs since the Super Bowl. You know, Beyoncé’s video—and that’s sort of bled over into other things, it seems like, within law enforcement.”
Beyoncé’s new single makes no mention of police, but the “Formation” video features a New Orleans police car being submerged in water. Her Super Bowl halftime performance, in which she and other dancers dressed in homage to the Black Panthers, was criticized by right-wing TV pundits in the past week.
Arnold said he couldn’t think of any other reason why he would be targeted “other than me being in my position, being the chief law enforcement officer in the county.”
However, the Daily Beast reports that Arnold has conveniently overlooked a number of other possible reasons for someone to shoot at his house.
He’s currently under investigation by the FBI and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. “On April 10, 2015, at the request of District Attorney General Jennings Jones, TBI Agents began an investigation into activities regarding improper contracts used by the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Department, including any specific party involved in the alleged activity,” TBI spokesperson Josh Devine told The Daily Beast. “Our investigation remains active and ongoing.”
The investigation into Arnold began after he listed e-cigarettes that he had sold to inmates as a source of income, according to Nashville’s WKRN. Arnold’s office, three homes, and the offices of the jail cigarette supplier, JailCigs, were all raided last May.
JailCigs was run by Arnold’s aunt and uncle, and Arnold told WSMV that his wife “works part-time answering phones for them.”
Also… as of last week, Arnold is the target of a $20 million lawsuit by the family of a man left brain-dead after being beaten in a Murfreesboro jail, despite repeated warnings of a potential attack from the parents of the alleged assaulter.
The family of Robert Lee Johnson, who was in jail for two months on misdemeanor charges before the assault, says the county is refusing to pay for medical treatment after the attack left Johnson without cognitive brain function.
Also…in 2014, Detective Jim Tramel won a $275,000 settlement after it was determined he was fired by Arnold for his political beliefs.
Arnold was sued again for the same reason in August of last year. McKayla Black contends she was unjustly terminated after supporting an Independent candidate for Sheriff. Arnold, a Republican, won 51.9 percent of the vote in 2014. The case is set to be heard later this year.
Arnold’s wife and children were home when shots were fired. Shell casings were found in the street, but no bullets were found in Arnold’s home. The sheriff says he’ll increase patrol around his house.
#HIPHOPBEEF! The Game Reignites Beef With Young Thug: “I Will Beat The Victoria Secret Out That Boy/Girl”
The Game took another shot at Young Thug this week. The on-going beef between Young Thug & The Game continues this week. On Monday, the Los Angeles Confidential decided to take a shot at Thugger Thugger in the comments section of his own Instagram.
Starting off with an original picture of The Game looking like Ted with ladies all over him, things quickly turned south after someone commented “you gonna need a Ted when Thugger Thugger catch yo ass!” Obviously catching his attention, The Game didn’t take the comment too lightly and replied "You must be joking... I will beat the Victoria secret out that boy/girl."
Thugger has yet to comment, but it’s surely only a matter of time. These two have gone back & forth several times on social media over the past year or so, so this is nothing new. We’ll keep you posted if anymore surfaces.
Check out the Game's shot below.
Uh Oh?

Folks weren’t feeling The Grammy Awards! Ratings The Lowest In Seven Years!
NEW YORK (AP) Monday’s Grammys telecast missed a beat with the TV audience, delivering a seven-year low in viewership.
The Nielsen ratings company says the music shindig aired on CBS was seen by an average 24.95 million viewers. That was 300,000 fewer viewers than for last year’s edition, which was the smallest Grammys audience since 2009.
But “The 58th Annual Grammy Awards,” broadcast for the first time on a Monday and aired live in the Pacific and Mountain time zones, still scored the largest audience of any entertainment program this season, CBS said.
The show was hosted by LL Cool Jay for the fifth consecutive year.
CJ the German Shorthaired Pointer Wins Best in Show at 2016 Westminster Dog Show
He beat out a German Shepherd, a Bulldog, a Skye terrier and a Shih Tzu for the top prize at the 140th annual show from Madison Square Garden
CJ the German shorthaired pointer had tails wagging on Tuesday night when he was named Best in Show at the 2016 Westminster Dog Show.
The three-year-old took home the top honors to close out the 140th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show held at Madison Square Garden, New York City.
He beat out fellow fan favorites Annabelle (a Bulldog), Rumor (a German Shepherd), Lucy (a Borzoi) and Panda (a Shih Tzu).
Best in Show was judged by Dr. Richard Meen of Ontario, Canada, who crowned Lucy as the reserve runner-up.
CJ is the first Sporting Group winner to take Best in Show since 2009, and the 20th from the group to win over all.
“He was born for this,” owner Valerie Nunes-Atkinson, from Temecula, California, said after CJ, short for California Journey, won best in the sporting group earlier in the night. “There’s something special about him.”
CJ now gets to enjoy the traditional steak lunch at Sardi’s restaurant, which was almost abolished in 2012 due to health code concerns, where he will lap up a gourmet meal from a silver platter.
It’s the third time this breed has won, with previous victories coming in 1974 and 2005. Judges select the best of each breed and group, divided into seven categories — hound, toy, non-sporting, herding, sporting, working and terrier.
A Beagle named Miss P won Best in Show in 2015.
