King Bey graced the cover of the latest People Magazine as 2012's "World's Most Beautiful Woman". In it's pages she talks beauty secrets, how she dropped the baby weight, and the joy of mommyhood. "I feel more beautiful than I've ever felt because I've given birth," says Beyonce.
The 30-year-old songstress and rapper hubby Jay-Z, 42, became proud parents of baby girl Blue Ivy Carter on Jan. 7. When asked who baby Blue resembled Beyonce replied, "She looks like Blue. She's her own person."
To catch more of Beyonce's interview with People Mag pick up this week's special issue on newsstands Friday.
XXL may have slept of Azelia Banks when recruiting for their 2012 Freshman list, but Elle Magazine sees a star in the 20-year-old rapper. Dresed in a Mickey Mouse sweater and Moschino Wool Matador Hat she's featured in the magazine's 2012 issue as one of its Women in Music 2012.
When '212' first hit YouTube last September the Harlem natives raunchy rhymes and undeniable swagger caught eyes and ears across the globe. Including that of the likes of Iggy, so much so the fair skinned bombshell with the "donkey" backside and Banks start beefing. Banks sent blasts for Iggy when she wascovered XXL's 2012 Freshman Class Edition.
Being that Iggy is one of TI's artist he was bound to be asked what he thought of Bank's coming at Iggy. In March, he told DJ Drama on V-103:
Iggy and TI
Strategically
if she really cares about a freshmen cover maybe she could hope that she’ll suck
enough to get shelved and then next year when the freshmen cover comes back
around, maybe she’ll still be a freshman. If you spend half of your day getting
moneyand the other half of your day counting
money, you ain’t got no time in your day to worry about nobody else.
Landing himself right in the middle of a cat fight. Upon hearing TI's comment Azelia took to Twitter posting:
@tip
you corny for that one. Come on T.I…. N-ggas is not scared of u and whatever
sh-t u got to say on some radio show. … LMFAOO how u a grown man commenting on
what’s going on between two girls. Come on son. Stop it.”
Recently, TI told WGCI's Morning Riot Show he never saw the tweet and responded:
See,
the thing about that is I ain’t even know anything about it until just now. I
ain’t even see it. I know they are going through their thing. But in regards to
her speaking upon me and mine, I ain’t even see it. That is what I consider–and
excuse my language–but that’s bitch sh-t. I am a man. You ain’t have no business addressing me. When you get a man, get him to address me
and he and I can speak on it. But you and me … Keep dealin with that woman
[Iggy]. Y’all handle that. Me and you ain’t got nowhere to go with
that.
Again, Banks got Twitter happy and went off on the Atlanta Rapper (through tweets of course):
@tip What a f-cking clown @tip ain’t you the same dude that got photographed butt naked n a pair of
sneakers and a beanie???!?! @tip it’s dead… The streets already know what kind of dude you are. Stop
making yourself look softer by dragging this out. @tip funny how you have plenty of time to address me but nothing to say to
the dudes who have been calling you a snitch forever. @tip T.i …. Please shut the f-ck up about this. Like seriously quit
it. Deleting TI from My iTunes >:-( LMFAOO every time I delete a ti song from my iPad I imagine him dying in some bloody horror film like being eaten by a zoombie.
We think TI may have hurt her feelings. We're pretty sure you wouldn't find any Azelia Banks records on TI's iTunes either. Sweetie, you may have stepped out of your lane--save the blasts for Iggy.
April 24-- Did you see the Single Ladies Season 2 trailer last night on VH1 while watching some of your favorite reality shows? I sure did and must admit I was excited to learn that Single Ladies is officially back for a second season! If you are a fan of the show then you are aware that Valerie, played by actress Stacey Dash, won't be returning (rumor has it that Dash was fired). Well as you can see, one woman does not stop the show. This season fans will be introduced to Raquel, played by actress Denise Vasi, a sophisticated "bossette" coming into her own and calling the shots. I can't wait to see what this romantic comedy has in store for BFF Keisha (LisaRaye McCoy), April (Charity Shea) and now Raquel love lives.
Check out the official trailer on YouTube.
Cassie move over, up and coming artist Sabi has swagga-jacked your looks and dance moves. The singer just dropped a new single with cutie rapper Wale to back her.
The 23-year-old Warner Brother artist asks her unreliable boy toy "Where They Do That At" after peeping his game playing ways.
Singing:
Say
you want me. Then I want you too Say you need me, Then I need you
too Just don’t say you miss me and never call back Where They Do That
At? If you kiss me Im'ma kiss on you Did you touch me? Or did I touch
you? Just don’t say you love me and never call back Where They Do That
At?
Silly PGGW, we thought we retired that phrase a year ago. Where they say that at?
Check out the video for Where They Do That At on YouTube.
The Basketball Wives serve up beef like it's thier favorite meal, but one B-Ball wifey's assistant may have taken it too far. Recently, Jen and her lawyer held a press conference confirming the cast member will be issuing a lawsuit to Evelyn's assistant, Nia Crook.
In a taping of the show, Nia said she is upset with Jen for letting fame go to her head. She confronted her ex-friend in front of the other ladies at a dinner. After words were exchanged, Nia got up from her seat and smacked Jen. This came after Ev smacked Jen in the head with her purse on a previous episode at Shaunie's birthday dinner.
Jen said at the press conference:
Violence used against any person is wrong but when a woman hits another woman it sets a horrible example for young girls everywhere. I choose to use the justice system to fight back.
I didn't watch the video for a long time because I lived it. It's disturbing. It's humiliating. I get anxiety just thinking about it. She hit me with her open hand on my cheek. I've never been hit in my life.
Jen also blooged about the episode:
Here’s the thing: on my show some of these women take pride in showing their
a– in the most compromising way. These females have a point to prove and will
do or say anything to be a “reality show star.” Fame is a powerful drug and some
will go any length to achieve it. I am a grown woman and I have never had to
fight someone to prove my point, I use my vocabulary and brain for that. Mature
woman should be able to communicate their differences without violence. Using
your hands to express yourself is absolutely WACK!!!
I will never forget that day at the racetrack, I didn’t go there to fight so
that was the last thing I expected to encounter. All I remember was the
nonsense that took place. The assistant/gofer decided to be in full action with
her monkey see monkey do self as she snuck a slap from behind. You are a coward
if you catch me off guard while sitting down and not to mention a bully! Then
the president of the NON Factor T-shirt Enterprise thought that jumping across
the table like a demon would be a good look for the young women in America that
watch the show. The horses racing around the track were more civilized than some
of the woman with me in the presidential suite that day. I swear I still don’t
understand why someone would want to act so ridiculous on national television
but I guess some will do anything for fame.
Evelyn and Assistant, Nia Crooks
Nia expressed in an interview she regrets taking it that far:
I'm not going to lie, I did regret it after it happened. I actually prayed on it. It bothers me that someone I love and someone I know became someone I use to love and someone I knew.
Rumor has it most of the Basketbal Wives cast will not do the reunion show if Jennifer Williams plans to be in attendance.
We hope Evelyn pays Nia well. By the looks of that smack the assistant will be handing over some bills.
Rumors of Bravo giving Sheree Whitfield the boot after she missed the Bravo Upfronts has been shot done by the cast member. Recently, she told WetPaint that she made the decision not to return for a 5th s=Season of the Real Housewives of Atlanta for her own reasons:
"After four solid seasons of helping Bravo build the show into its most successful Housewives franchise, I have decided to leave. The direction the show is going in is no longer a fit for my lifestyle. I'm tired of the fighting and the cattiness."
"I want to be part of something that empowers and inspires women to not only be healthy, but to treat themselves with respect. I wish the rest of the women the best of luck. I'm thrilled to say I'm a free agent and am already fielding offers."
Sheree said she plans to continue with the production of her clothing line, She by Sheree and pursue ventures in the fitness business.
Basketball Wives Tami Romain dreamed of being the next Tyra Banks when she was MTV's The Real World, 19-years-later the hold no bars Reality TV star gets her model pose on in the latest edition of Everything Girls Love. Love and Hip Hop's Yandi Smith chatted with Tami about life, love, success, and keeping it real.
Read Tami's take on Reality TV, her portrayal of B-Ball Wives, and finding balance in her life below.
On Reality TV:
"When we did The Real World it was real. Nobody even knew it would turn into this phenomenon it is today. I think that Reality TV will continue to exist because production is cheap and everybody likes to feel like they are looking into everybody else's life. I think it is going to be around for a long time and people will just have to get used to it."
On TV shows/movies she's starred in:
"I played in a really good film called MacArthur Park; which is about a real life park in LA that is very havily drug laden. It was based on a true story and I played an actual real life character. I'm really proud of that work. People see me and they want to cast me as the pretty girlfriend ot the pretty best friend. That role allowed me to take out my weave and delve into the part. By the time I did that move I had developed a love for the craft."
On the way she's portrayed on Basketball Wives:
"I have to be honest. I cannot say that what people see is not me because that is a part of my personality, and yes I will go off on you. But, that is not all that I am. My biggest complaint is that there is not enough balance on our show to show people the other side. I don't walk around with boxing gloves on all the time."
On finding balance in life (with kids, a career, and a relationship):
"I put my family and my relationship first. I am now in a positive relationship with someone who loves me, my daughters, and respects me as a woman. We make our relationship a priority."

Who would want to pick with Lil’ Diggy Simmons? Ask J. Cole.
The rapper has been stirring up a pot of beef and spoon feeding it to Rev. Run’s
son since February.J. Cole dropped a
track on Twitter titled ‘Grew Up Fast’
mentioning young Simmons and claims it was not a diss record but Cole’s 2
million followers may beg to differ after hearing:
“Move along cock-sucker, ain’t got nothing to
see,
‘less you talking blockbuster, you n-ggas is not Russell
You more Diggy, Me, I’m more Biggie
No diss to the young boy, I’m just rapping, get bored quickly”
Listen to 'Grew Up Fast' below:
Diggy wasn’t taking J.
Cole putting his name in his mouth lightly and released his own diss track
asking Cole, ‘What You Say To Me’.
The verse revealed more than we could get from Twitter, Diggy referenced he was
pissed about Cole subliminally rapping that he slept with his sister, Vanessa
Simmons on a track called ‘Purple Rain’:
“The other day I was listening to Purple Rain,

got no wins,
Little ni-ga named Cole think he live like me, jet setter trend setter, yeah

Can’t find a girl that you know that do not like me, can’t find a girl I know,
who know you, you dumb fool
Wasn’t even poppin’ in the school you used to go to.”
Listen to 'What You Say To Me' below:
Allegedly, Vanessa Simmons and J. Cole met as Communication majors at St. John’s
University. According to Cole, things between them got hot and heavy on campus,
running Vanessa’s good “girl image”
through the mud and calling her a freak:
“Good girl huh, father was a preacher
sent her off to college thought I got her on a leash though
from the outside though, them girls be the squeakiest
you get ‘em inside them girls be the freakiest, mischievous, downright devious
say she want cake I got all the right ingredients
