Are you feeling Jilly from Philly’s big chop? Jill Scott has once again changed her look! The singer covers the October issue of Essence and tells the mag: “This is the simplest form of myself. I look in the mirror and it’s like, ‘Hey, there you go. What’s up, girl?’ For me, hair is an accoutrement. Hair is jewelry. It’s an accessory. Tomorrow I may want a wig down to my butt and I’m gonna rock it, and the next day I may want a big Afro and I’m gonna rock that too.” Jill can rock a weave, cornrows or au naturale look with the best of them. We can’t help but love her confidence, but do you love her latest look? Source Photo via: Essence
Don’t act like you didn’t tear up a little bit. First Lady Michelle Obama graced the stage tonight with a history-making speech that was filled with passion, determination, and most importantly, that human connection none of us felt last week when the Republicans had their turn. She spoke up for our children, all Women and their rights to equal pay and to make decisions for their bodies, and what it’s really like to be an American with convictions and heart. With such stories, the first lady sought to counter Republicans trying to paint Obama as something other than a typical American, and implied that it was Romney who couldn’t relate to people trying to get by in tough economic times. “In the end, for Barack, these issues aren’t political. They’re personal,” she said. “I’m going to try to not let them see their daddy cry because when Michelle starts talking, I start getting all misty,” Obama said at rally earlier Tuesday in Norfolk, Va. With a mix of personal anecdotes and policy talk, Mrs. Obama’s speech was by far her most political yet. “Today, after so many struggles and triumphs and moments that have tested my husband in ways I never could have imagined, I have seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are – it reveals who you are,” she said. To that send, the first lady painted a portrait of a leader who knows first-hand the struggles of everyday Americans, who listens to them as president, and who pushes an agenda with their interests in mind. “That’s the man I see in those quiet moments late at night, hunched over his desk, poring over the letters people have sent him,” she said. “I see the concern in his eyes … and I hear the determination in his voice as he tells me, `You won’t believe what these folks are going through, Michelle . it’s not right. We’ve got to keep working to fix this. We’ve got so much more to do.”” She added: “I see how that’s what drives Barack Obama every single day.” In case you missed the amazing intro…or if you’re like us and you want to watch it again, here you go! You made us all really proud and inspired tonight Michelle. The best damn FLOTUS this country has had in a very long time! Source Photos via GettyImages/Youtube

Hi Hater! Bruce Jenner hasn’t been shy about expressing his concern over stepdaughter Kim Kardashian’s relationship with rapper Kanye West, but it’s looking like instead of getting used to the idea he’s only becoming more outspoken on the subject. Here’s the latest on Bruce’s hatin’: Henpecked hubby/ daddy BRUCE JENNER knows there’s usually female hell to pay when he voices an opinion in his girl-heavy family, but was finally driven to tell stepdaughter KIM KARDASHIAN: You’re making a stupid mistake all over again by dating KANYE WEST! “Bruce didn’t like Kanye from the start,” confides a family pal. “He thinks he’s crass – and disrespectful!” And when Kanye told the world that his b!tchin’ new song celebrates finding his “Perfect B!tch” in Kim, Bruce blew sky-high! “He told Kim she’d better take a serious look at ALL her failed relationships – and figure out why she keeps falling for the wrong type of guy,” reports the source. “Bruce said, ‘You’re never going to be in a successful relationship if you keep going out with men like Kanye!’ ” Outraged, Kim shrieked that he’s NEVER liked anyone she’s dated, stormed out of her parents’ home – and she’s stopped speaking to Bruce. Think they’re gonna let Bruce keep them apart? Hell to the naw! KimYe were spotted skipping hand-in-hand through the streets of Manhattan Friday night looking so in love we almost puked when we saw the pictures.

This isht is hilarious! Funky Dineva had a chance to sit down with Joseline “Jose” Hernandez backstage at ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’s’ Reunion Show and was takin’ shots at home girl the entire time. The two went head to head on subjects like Joseline’s relationship with Stevie J, as well as her former stripper days and what her plans were for the future. Joseline claimed that during her dancing days, she was a top of the line stripper who made at least $10,000 from just three songs and she was very stingy with her goodies. She also said that the men didn’t get to touch her, however, Stevie J was the lucky one and if he ever decides to stray, she’s not worried about it because he will always come back. [okay..girl] Going into the interview, Funky Dineva was straight-forward by telling Joseline that he didn’t care for her too much since she was screwing ‘that lady husband’ (that lady being Stevie J’s longtime girlfriend Mimi Faust). He also called her HOE-saline numerous times and when she grabbed the mic from him to answer a question, he snatched it back and said, ‘I work for these people. Why are you taking this? That’s the problem, you are always grabbing the d—, that’s why half of America does not like you now’!
