K.Michelle Says She’ll Only Appear On Half Of LHHATL Season 2 Love & Hip Hop ATL reality wild child K. Michelle recently performed at the Howard Theatre in Washington, D.C. to a “sold out” show and took a few minutes following her performance to dish a little on all things K. Michelle. During the chat with D.C. promoter and DJ Aladdin “Prince of the Airwayz” of WPGC, the rowdy R&B songstress dropped a bombshell about her minimal participation in season 2 of the show that is currently taping and set to air in April. After telling the crowd during her show: “I’m really announcing that I won’t be on Love & Hip Hop,” K.Michelle explained further with this statement: “I’m on this season, a lot of the episodes, up until like the 6th one. After that, from now on, it’s only music so from now on they’re just gonna have to catch me working.” Hmmm. So she told the crowd that she was leaving, but it sounds more like she only wants to be filmed performing and won’t be acting like a wild banshee on camera this season. What do you think? Is K. Michelle kicking LHHATL to the curb after 6 episodes? You can check out the full interview video below while you decide. YouTube
‘Kanye and Kim, they’re kind of like two peas in a pod,’ Khloe Kardashian says in clip for ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians.’ By Jocelyn Vena Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Photo: Splash News “Kanye and Kim, they’re kind of like two peas in a pod,” little sister Khloe Kardashian says about Kim’s romance with Kanye West in a “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” teaser . While not much footage of Kim and Yeezy made it into the clip, the little bit that did will certainly spark interest in Sunday’s season premiere of the E! reality show. As Khloe narrates her feelings about the twosome, the trailer cuts to them sitting together, dressed all in black and sharing a laugh. Kimye isn’t the only headline that made the jam-packed show trailer. Kourtney reveals to her family that she’s having a baby girl , the family goes on a drama-filled vacation to the Dominican Republic and Lamar Odom ponders his basketball-playing future, telling in-laws Bruce and Kris Jenner, “I know that I can make any team a championship-caliber team. I got to just get back.” And, yes, the infamous red-carpet flour-bombing also makes the cut. Toward the end of the teaser, mama Kris proclaims, “I left my husband for this guy,” as footage of her hugging a mysterious man is teased. A teary-eyed Kourtney says, “I don’t understand. I could never do that to my children.” However, it is unclear what exactly will play out. When MTV News caught up with Kim and Khloe , the eldest Kardashian sister noted that she wanted to keep as much of her relationship with West as private as possible. “I don’t know if I’m ready to talk about him,” Kim said. “I feel like I’ve had such a hard time sharing my love life that now I’m a little bit more reserved on that.” While Kim was tight-lipped about her man, Khloe teased her sister a bit about the romance. “No I love, it. You’re like a wild, crowd-surfing child and I love you.” On Wednesday, Kim and Kanye were spotted in London, where Kim will launch her jewelry line. According to E! , the twosome touched down to lots of paparazzi. Kim will be doing some press while in town, including radio and TV appearances. Related Artists Kanye West
At intimate New York listening party, singer says new album ‘widened the expectations of what I can do.’ By Jocelyn Vena John Mayer Photo: Mark Sullivan/ Getty Images NEW YORK — Fans and industry folks gathered at the famed Electric Lady Studios in Greenwich Village on Wednesday night to get an advanced listen to John Mayer ‘s new album, the country-fried, introspective Born and Raised. Before the album even played, Neil Young songs blasted through the hallowed halls of the studio. Given Mayer’s vibe on Born and Raised, which pays homage to the Young sound of the 1970s, it all made sense. When Mayer’s album was eventually put on, it was an easy transition from Young’s jangly guitar and harmonica to Mayer’s own on the album, out Tuesday. The album was recorded at Electric Lady Studios, and the Big Apple is referenced on some tracks, as on many Mayer songs before. “Records are pure reflections,” Mayer told the room. “I’m so proud it’s out. The finish line is so far off [when you’re making the record].” In recent years, Mayer has been through it all. After going TMI crazy in the press in 2010 , he has shied away from media attention. Some of that had to do with the fact that he had surgery on his vocal cords in late 2011. In fact, he still needs to go through another surgery to correct the problem. But he said he plans to record a new album this summer, regardless. “If you’re lucky, you get to make giant evolutionary steps from your first record, so I was able to do that. And you guys, I think, you’re able to come along with that step and be psyched about that evolution and I’m excited to even go further now and start coming up with melodies you haven’t heard yet,” he said, referencing his “Your Body Is a Wonderland” days on his 2001 debut, Room for Squares. During the chat he explained that every song on this album is his favorite, for perhaps the first time in his career, adding that they “widened the expectations of what I can do.” Additionally, after having to cancel his 2012 spring trek , Mayer confirmed he want to hit the road in spring 2013 “and have two records to pull from. … I think I can cheat time a little bit because as you know, I try to cheat time all the time. So I think we can all catch up so that a year from now there’s two records. It’ll be like Born and Raised part two because there’s certain things I want to keep doing.” Related Artists John Mayer
Will you be watching? Via TMZ reports : A film which is said to feature male supermodel Tyson Beckford is being shopped around the adult entertainment community … TMZ has learned. Sources tell us … the seller insists the 45-minute tape shows the former Polo model pleasuring himself during a recent Internet video chat with a female model. We’re told … during the chat session, Tyson makes references to some of the movies he’s appeared in … and talks about some of his co-stars. Sources say Beckford also reveals one of his pet peeves — being mistaken for Tyrese Gibson. A rep for Beckford tells TMZ … the model’s camp has not seen the footage and will not release a statement until they can view the material that’s being shopped. Tyson Beckford has always been known for having a huge ego, maybe now the public will get to see exactly how big (or small) his “pride” really is. Any ideas on whom the lucky model he’s jerkin’ his runway chicken is?
Jaime Pressly is off to a rough start here in Two Thousand Eleven. Less than three weeks after the actress was arrested for DUI , sources say that she and entertainment lawyer husband Simran Singh are calling it quits. “They are done,” one insider says of the pair, who wed in September 2009. “It’s over. I don’t think they have officially filed anything yet though.” Continues a second source , “I think it comes down to she married this guy too fast. He seemed like a good guy but he is super full of himself.” “He puts her down for everything. He picks fights over any little thing.” Sounds like a real catch. The insider adds that Pressly is most heartbroken over how the separation will affect her three-year-old son Dezi. The boy’s father is her ex-fiance Eric Cubiche. “She doesn’t want to confuse him,” says the source. “Her baby is her top priority.” Here’s hoping things are at least resolved amicably for that reason.
James Franco is officially an Oscar nominee . But that’s not why the actor is making headlines today. Franco is in the news due to his unusual comments during a Newsweek -hosted discussion with fellow nominees Natalie Portman, Colin Firth, Michelle Williams, Annette Bening and Nicole Kidman. During the chat, Franco somehow steered the conversation to his experience playing the role of Ray J when he was 19, saying: “I think if anybody who has made a sex tape knows, what feels best doesn’t always look best. I remember when I was 19 doing that, and then watching it back and thinking, oh, that looks horrible… You have a lot of respect for those actors in pornography, because they are really not just doing it, they’re really selling it.” True. But then they’re getting it on with Charlie Sheen . Sort of tips the scale back into the disrespect side of things, doesn’t it?
