Halle and her Boo Split

Halle Berry and her baby daddy Gabriel Aubry have called it quits, according to People magazine. They are reportedly battling out custody issues regarding their 2 year old daughter Nahla. Some sources are saying the age difference was a large part of the split. Berry is 43 and Gabriel is 34.

Damn they sure were one hot couple. It is always sad when a child is involved, hopefully they will be able to work things out and remain friends.

Nicki Minaj Fires her Manager and Rehires............

Diddy??? Yup, you read it right, Mr. Sean "Diddy" Combs is officially  managing rapper Nicki Minaj. It seems that Ms. Minaj wasn't very happy with previous manager Debbie Antney, so she fired her. Ms. Antney told Hip Hop Weekly Magazine that the news  came as a complete surprise to her :

"I received a letter, which was [a] suspension," Antney explained. "The next letter that came in was a cease and desist in doing all business with Nicki Minaj from Nicki's attorney."

"I love Nicki. I wish her the most success. It's not about the music, she's like one of my children. I wish her no harm, only much success."

What's suprising to me is that she picked Diddy out of all people to manage her career.  First of all, I don't know if it is a very good idea for an artist to manage another artists career. Second, we all know that most of Diddy's artist never have long success. It's like he gets bored of them, and then he is off to the next big thing. Hopefully this is not the case with her, only time will tell...........

What do ya'll think of this move?

Taylor Momsen's 'New Look'

We all know how Gossip Girl's Taylor Momsen has gotten slammed for her risque outfits at such a young age [i.e wearing her underwear for her band performances..], but all that press has caught the eye of fashion house New Look. Momsen has signed on to be the new face of their Spring/Summer 2010 campaign, joining former New Look models Alexa Chung, Agyness Deyn, Kimberley Walsh, and Pixie Geldof. She's still showing a little skin but at least it's not 'workin-the-corner' kind of skin. Lol hey, I'm all for lookin sexy, but sexy doesn't have to be wearing your panties in public. Check out the shoot:

So what do you think?

Good pick for a campaign face?

Celebrities Untouched

It has been a known fact that celebrities go through major extremes to look  perfect in cover shoots, magazines, red carpet events, etc. Digital retouching has been a part of entertainment industry since day 1.However most celebs have kept it on the down low, in order to keep their picture perfect images alive. Well times are changing, and A list celebrities are wanting the world to know that what we see in the magazines are anything but real.

Britney Spears, who is the spokesperson for Candies  is unhappy with the latest campaign ads released because of the extensive retouching. The unretouched photos of the ad recently leaked out this week, and sources are saying that Ms. Spears has leaked the photos herself, in order to show how superficial the entertainment industry really is.

The left is the retouched, and on the right is the unretouched

I think she looks beautiful in her original photo. I can see why she was upset about them airbrushing so much of this.


Another star that is fighting back retouching is Jessica Simpson. For the May issue of Marie Claire magazine  the singer went makeup free and airbrush free.With all the controversy surrounding her weight Jessica wanted to squash all the haters, and let them know that she is 100% happy with who she is. Of course there are those who are saying that she isn't makeup free in the magazine, however I believe her. Check out the photos

What do you guys think of all this?

Reality Stars must stick together..

...or at least have to date. Maybe you guys already knew about this but it's news to me:

Audrina Patridge and Ryan Cabrera have apparently been dating for months, but it's already been reported that the couple is no longer together. But don't fret, they did stay together long enough for him to be apart of the sixth season of The Hills. No offense but it makes you wonder if Cabrera is just wanting a little media attention. Don't you remember him being apart of Ashlee Simpson's Reality Show way back when on MTV? Or even more recent he was on E!'s new series Pretty Wild as a love interest of one of the sisters:

Tess Taylor (pictured above and P.S hmm looks a little Audrina-ish.... have a type lately Ryan?) Anyway, with dating three reality stars and a cameo on each one's show, some have gone on to say he's a little opportunist.

I don't really know what to think but all I can say is fame really worth all that struggle?

In a time where the only well-known names of black models were literally on a one hand count, this Domincan beauty pops up. She joins the likes of Chanel Iman, who like herself, is also bursting on the scene. Pena is taking her pretty face to the bank being signed as the new face of Lancome.

It looks like it's only up for this beauty.

Really Now?.....

So I was reading Cosmo the other day, and I came across Kimora Lee's brand new add for her fragrance "To be Edgy". All I could think is wow...why did they feel the need to photoshop the hell out of her?? We all know that Kimora just had a baby and that is NOT what her body looks like.... she hasn't been that size for years now. There's nothing wrong with curves, why does the media feel the need to make everyone stick skinny? I mean at least they could have been more subtle about it......I'm just saying.......

Trey Songz Covers Vibe Magazine

The always sexy Trey Songz is on the cover of Vibe magazine's April issue and I just have one word to say dayummm. Trey's body is killin it on the cover. I  can't get over how much I love this man! 

In the issue Trey talks about his rise to the top, and his forever comparison to R. Kelly. He's becoming real irritated with the comparisons....

“People say, ‘Well, I hear a lot of R. Kelly in your music. ... So what? R. Kelly took Aaron Hall’s whole style. Two albums 

So is he admitting that he is biting off of R. Kelly.....? I'm not gonna lie, when I first heard Trey's music the first artist that came to mind was R. Kelly. They sound so much alike, and all they talk about is sex. However, I believe that Trey is representing this generation, and bringing a new vibe.
