TENS or CHOPS Mariah VS Jennifer as they both appear on the Cover of Paper Magazine Las Vegas Edition!
They once claimed not to know one another but now Mariah Carey, 47, and Jennifer Lopez, 48, have each taken covers for the same issue of Paper magazine for their special edition Las Vegas issue.
Both divas look fabulous as they tried to out-glam each other to promote their glitzy Las Vegas shows.
Mariah looked fabulous as she showed off her figure in nothing but an elaborate necklace and fishnet stockings.
The We Belong Together singer had her long locks strategically placed over her breasts as she opted to go topless for the sexy cover shoot.
She also wore long black gloves and posed seductively with her hands over her head.
Smiling mysteriously at the camera, the longtime diva looked great in full glamorous makeup that really made her eyes pop.
For her cover, Jennifer went full Vegas showgirl in a bejeweled crown and sparkling one-piece bodysuit complete with talons coming out of the shoulders.
She is straddling a shimmering piece of furniture as she places one pant on her butt and the other out in front of her.
Similar to her rival, Jennifer wore a full face of makeup, complete with dark eye-shadow and fake eyelashes for the full Vegas effect. Perhaps as a bit of SHADE at her rival, who has been accused of phoning in her performances, Jennifer talked about how seriously she takes her performances: 'The name of the show is "All I Have," so I can't be like, "Tonight you're getting half," you know. You can't do that.'
She also admits, she's not much of a Vegas partier, despite having a show here.
'I don't do that stuff. You know what I mean? I'm here to dance and the wildest thing I've done is, oooh, I danced 'til 4. You know, that was it.'
Both divas have shows in Las Vegas, which both return to the strip later this year. Okay judges can we have your score.
#RHoA: Report: Kenya Moore’s ‘Real Housewives’ Co-Stars Are Plotting Against Her?
(via BET) Her man is allegedly involved. Kenya Moore is reportedly at odds with her Real Housewives of Atlanta co-stars, and based on reports, her new husband, Marc Daly, is at the center of the drama.
According to Radar Online, the ladies of RHOA believe Kenya and Marc's marriage is a sham.
"The RHOA cast believes Kenya's wedding to Marc Daly is illegitimate," an insider told the publication. "Kim Zolciak, Sheree Whitfield and Nene Leakes are the ring leaders in searching for the truth behind Kenya Moore's shocking elopement earlier this year."
The hunt for the truth allegedly came after Kim and Kenya reportedly got into it at Nene's house, with the insider adding that Kim has now "made it her priority to find proof that Kenya's wedding was just a publicity stunt instead of actual nuptials."
The ladies allegedly hounded Kenya on her recent nuptials during a recent taping for the show, and they reportedly all came to the conclusion that it's all fake.
"The RHOA cast grilled Kenya about the details of her relationship and why she chose to wed after being single for so long," the source added. "The group consensus is that her marriage was never recorded and that she does not have a wedding license. Kenya feels the entire ordeal was instigated by Kim in retaliation for their blow-up at Sheree's housewarming party last year, where she took shots at her husband, Kroy."
Kenya and Marc tied the knot on June 10 at a private resort in St. Lucia…If this is true then WOW!!!!!
#EMPIRE: Watch Taraji P. Henson Call Out Solange At BGR For Being Fashionably Late
In case you missed it, Solange Knowles made quite the entrance at Black Girls Rock! tonight! Showing up a little late to the scene, Taraji P. Henson called Solange out when the singer took a seat. Not in an effort to embarrass the natural-haired beauty but to simply let the people know that a “star” had arrived!
The 31-year-old was one of tonight’s honorees, in which she received an award for her impeccable artistry on her recent album, “A Seat at the Table.” As she took the stage we couldn’t help but notice that she pulled off yet another full look in only one color, which if you follow her swag, you know Solo loves a good monochromatic look! The all-black look was paired with yellow-tinted, '90s-inspired frames — the new trendy sunglass shape that several celebs are rocking at the moment —but, of course, Solange just does so effortlessly.
And if her outfit wasn’t enough to bring you to life, her acceptance speech had us living! The “Cranes in the Sky” artist expressed how much she just loves her “Black girls” and the “language” that they speak. Solange went on by providing examples in which she says she goes outside looking a hot mess (does this actually ever happen Solange?) and another Black woman will see her and say, “Girl, you look good,” knowing she looks crazy. And even more humorous, when she’s late for a flight but makes eye contact with a Black woman working the gate and immediately knows she’ll get on the plane. I mean come on, how real can you get!
From the simplicity and chicness of her attire to her extremely entertaining and down-to-earth speech, Solange definitely won tonight! #ABlackGirlThatRocks.
New Music: Syd – Bad Dream / No Looking Back
After dropping her solo debut album Fin, The Internet’s frontwoman, Syd returns with “Bad Dream / No Looking Back.” The double song, produced by Gwen Bunn and Ricci Riera, is the first release off her forthcoming project, Always Never Home.
The atmospheric production provides a seductive backdrop for Syd’s soothing tone. “You’re a freak on the low / I’ll go as deep as can go,” she sings. “You let me know that it’s real / You get mad on the phone / I be hating the tone / There’s just a lot going on. ”
Written, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Syd, the second half of the track features a warning about commitment. “We only kiss when we fuckin’ so we don’t get too attached,” she sings. “If this turns into something, we know there’s no looking back.”
The Internet songstress dropped her 12-track solo debut Fin back in February. Now, the breakout Odd Future star is prepping Always Never Home for Sept. 8.

#HIPHOPNEWS: Macklemore Announces New Album ‘Gemini’
It’s about to be Gemini season. Macklemore has revealed the title, tracklisting, and release date for his solo sophomore album.
Although longtime musical partner Ryan Lewis isn’t onboard for this effort, the Seattle rapper is joined by a slew of collaborators, including Skylar Grey (“Glorious”), Lil Yachty (“Marmalade”), Offset (“Willy Wonka”), Kesha (“Good Old Days”), Eric Nally (“Ain’t Gonna Die Tonight”), and Dan Caplen (“Intentions”).
With only one song that does not feature a guest, Macklemore makes way for even more collaborators on the 16-track set, including Otieno Terry (“Levitate”), Reignwolf (“Firebreather”), King Draino (“How to Play the Flute”), Donna Missal (“Over It”), Abir (“Zara”), Xperience (“Church”), Saint Claire (“Excavate”), and Dave B and Travis Thompson (“Corner Store”).
Macklemore is surrounded by trees and standing in front of an old school ride on the cover with Gemini written above him in bold white letters. This is Mack’s first solo album in 12 years, following 2005’s The Language of My World.
Gemini also marks a major transition for Macklemore, after parting ways with Ryan Lewis earlier this year. Together, the duo broke into the music scene wth their 2012 platinum-selling debut The Heist. In 2015, they released their last album together, This Unruly Mess I’ve Made.
Gemini is due Sept. 22.

Game of Thrones season 7 finale title and length revealed
Confirmed: The finale will be the show’s longest episode ever
HBO has released the title of the final episode of Game of Thrones season 7.
Sunday’s super-sized episode is called “The Dragon and the Wolf”
The episode’s buzzed-about running time has also now been officially confirmed: 79 minutes, 43 seconds.
That makes the finale the longest episode in the HBO drama’s history. The second longest, by the way, was this week’s “Beyond the Wall,” which just edged out last year’s finale for the record.
In the episode, representatives of the Lannister, Targaryen, and Stark houses unite for a pivotal cease-fire meeting at the Dragonpit — an ancient ruin in King’s Landing where the Targaryen rulers once kept their dragons — to discuss the threat of the Night King. Characters at the meeting include Cersei Lannister, Missandei, Jon Snow, Theon Greyjoy, Ser Davos, Tyrion Lannister, Brienne of Tarth, Jaime Lannister, and others (absent from footage of the meeting: Daenerys Targaryen). So the title could refer to the meeting … or potentially Jon and Dany’s burgeoning romance … or both?
Speaking of records, Sunday’s “Beyond the Wall” came close to breaking another benchmark for the network — generating 10.2 million viewers overnight (and more than 14 million when including repeats and streaming). That ties “The Spoils of War” earlier this season as the show’s second most-watched episode. Typically, Game of Thrones finales tend to set ratings records, so we’ll have to see if the show breaks through another ceiling before our long wait for season 8 — which goes into production in October and is expected to premiere in either late 2018 or early 2019.
#POWER: Donshea Hopkins Shocked By Her ‘Power’ Character’s Death
“Power” fans were stunned and heartbroken when Raina St. Patrick was killed off of the show this past Sunday.
Donshea Hopkins, the 15-year-old actress, singer, and rapper who played Raina, was just as shocked to find out her character was headed to the crossroads with Uncle Charles y’all.
She told Hot 97: I feel like this season we became more attached to Raina because we got to see her grow and develop more…especially this season.
And then, it was like that – I was like REALLY??! C’mon?!?
I was definitely sad. I was a little heartbroken for a while. Not heartbroken, but it felt surreal.
I was definitely not expecting it.

#SPORTSNEWS: Seth DeValve Becomes First White Player To Take A Knee
Last season Colin Kaepernick garnered attention for taking a knee during the national anthem in protest of police brutality and racism. While many argued his form of protest was against military or unpatriotic, it simply was not. Kaepernick was joined by several other players throughout the season.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This NFL season the protest continues; however, this time it is a non-black player exercising his constitutional right. On Monday, 12 Cleveland Browns players kneeled, including the team’s tight end Seth DeValve.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After the game DeValve who is married to a black woman told ESPN, “I myself will be raising children that don’t look like me, and I want to do my part as well to do everything I can to raise them in a better environment than we have right now. So I wanted to take the opportunity with my teammates during the anthem to pray for our country and also to draw attention to the fact that we have work to do.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
DeValve continued, “The issue is [the U.S.] doesn’t provide equal opportunity to everybody,” DeValve said. “I wanted to support my African-American teammates today who wanted to a take a knee. We wanted to draw attention to the fact that there’s things in this country that still need to change.”

#SPORTSNEWS: Kyrie Irving To Celtics For Isaiah Thomas In Surprise Trade
CLEVELAND (AP) — Kyrie Irving was tired of being teammates with LeBron James.
Now he has to figure out how to beat him.
Cleveland’s All-Star guard, who asked owner Dan Gilbert to trade him earlier this summer, was dealt Tuesday night to the Boston Celtics in exchange for star guard Isaiah Thomas, forward Jae Crowder,
Irving, whose late 3-pointer helped Cleveland win the 2016 NBA championship — and the city’s first title since 1964 — is on his way to Boston, where he’ll join a Celtics team that lost to the Cavs in last season’s conference finals.
And as fate will have it, the Cavs will host the Celtics in their season opener on Oct. 17.
“Kyrie is one of the best scorers in the NBA,” Celtics president Danny Ainge said. “He has proven that on the biggest stage, the NBA Finals, the last three years. He’s been an NBA champion, an Olympic gold medalist, and a four-time All-Star. For all he’s accomplished, we think his best years are ahead of him.”
The blockbuster deal caps a wild summer for the Cavs, who lost their title defense in five games to Golden State in June. Since then, general manager David Giffin left, the team failed to convince Chauncey Billups to join its front office and James has played with fans’ emotions with veiled postings on social media about his future.
Irving’s trade demand cast a dark shadow over the entire organization..
But Cleveland may have salvaged its offseason with this trade.
In Thomas, they’re getting a proven playmaker with a stellar reputation. The 5-foot-9 guard is one of the league’s most dynamic backcourt players with an uncanny ability to get to the basket. Irving may be the only better finisher among point guards.
The 28-year-old Thomas was taken with the final pick in the second round in 2011, but he has steadily scaled his way up to elite status.
His reputation in Boston was cemented when he led the Celtics through the playoffs last season despite the death of his sister on the eve of the postseason. He also had a front tooth knocked out during the second-round series against Washington and a hip injury eventually forced the team to shut him down early in the East finals, won by the Cavaliers in five games.
“Isaiah embodied what it meant to be a Celtic,” Ainge said. “He captured fans’ hearts not only with his spirit, but his personality. Jae’s toughness was contagious for our team. He improved his skills each year, but it’s his energy and fight that will be remembered. We wish them and their families the very best.”
Thomas is eligible for free agency next summer and believes he is worthy of a maximum contract. He has been quoted saying, “They better bring out the Brinks truck.”
Cleveland also is getting Crowder, a solid perimeter defender, and a first-round pick that Boston got from Brooklyn. The package could help the Cavs reload if James opts out of his contract next summer and leaves Cleveland for a second time.
The Cavs drafted Irving with the No. 1 overall pick in 2011. He struggled in his first few seasons but blossomed in recent years alongside James. However, that didn’t seem to be enough for the 25-year-old, who has wanted to be the prime player and focal point on his own team.
Minnesota showed some interest in Irving after his trade request became public, but were unwilling to part with young star Andrew Wiggins as the centerpiece of a deal. Wiggins is expected to sign a max contract extension in the coming weeks to stay with the Timberwolves.
The Phoenix Suns reportedly were not interested in parting with rookie Josh Jackson in a deal that also would have required Eric Bledsoe and the New York Knicks gave no indication that Kristaps Porzingis was ever on the table in a potential Irving trade.
Then the Celtics swooped in, landing the kind of star Ainge has long coveted. With the possibility of having to break the bank to retain Thomas next summer, Boston finally tapped into the treasure trove of assets that Ainge has assembled to get Irving, who is under contract for two more years.
Irving got his wish to get away from James, but he’s not free of him yet.
