Source: Brian To/WENN.com / WENN Have you seen the new trailer for Little starring Marsai Martin , Regina Hall , and Issa Rae ? The movie is a must-see. From the producers of Girls Trip and Night School , Little is all set to hit a theatre near you on April 12. Bringing a new perspective to all the body-swap comedies floating around out there, “ Girls Trip ’s Regina Hall and Black-ish ’s Marsai Martin both star as Jordan Sanders,” the synopsis explains. “Hall, as the take-no-prisoners tech mogul adult version of Jordan and Martin, as the 13-year-old version of her who wakes up in her adult self’s penthouse just before a do-or-die presentation.” As for Issa, the Insecure star will play “Jordan’s long-suffering assistant April, the only one in on the secret that her daily tormentor is now trapped in an awkward tween body just as everything is on the line.” Watch the official trailer below — aside from it looking like a hilarious movie to tune into, this film will make Marsai Martin the youngest executive producer in hollywood history . During a visit to the set last Fall, BOSSIP got a chance to talk to Marsai about Little . She discussed coming up with the concept for the film at just 10 years old, being grateful, and more. “I was talking to Daddy and Mommy about some of their favorite movies when they were growing up and one of mine was BIG with Tom Hanks,” Marsai told BOSSIP at the time. “So that’s really how the idea was brought out, that’s where it all started and we started brainstorming, to see how we could create a black girl magic situation.” She continued, “At the Season 1 of black-ish , I think it was the season finale, dad went to Kenya like ‘Marsai has this dope idea.’ Kenya ended up liking it and right after was calling Will [Packer] like ‘Yo… Diane from black-ish has a dope idea.’ After that we had a meeting with him and James [Lopez] and after that he bought it and after that we went to Universal and they bought it and it wasn’t long before we shot it. I mean like, three years?” “I’m very grateful and very honored that they were just like saying yes to this 10-year-old who just popped out with this blazer and all of these things,” Marsai added. “They could have said no but they actually believed in me and the story we wanted to tell.” Hit the flip for more fabulous photos of Marsai with her black-ish squad and let us know if you’ll be tuning in to Little this spring.

Kenya Moore Shares First Photo Of Baby Brooklyn And Reveals Scary Birth Story We called it y’all! Kenya Moore’s baby girl Brooklyn Doris just made her debut on PEOPLE.com. The beauty queen turned reality star shared the first shot of her baby in the magazine’s December 24th edition, telling readers the details on her darling daughter: “I finally have everything I’ve dreamed of,” she gushes to PEOPLE , posing with her adorable baby girl for the first time in an exclusive spread for this week’s issue. “She’s so perfect in so many ways,” adds Moore, who says Brooklyn “makes 101 faces” that always make her laugh. “This little angel … so beautiful. I feel so blessed. It’s all been so worth it.” “It’s weird,” she says. “You can be surrounded by people but if you don’t have what you’ve longed for your whole life — and in my case, that’s a family — you just feel lonely.” Besides sharing the photos of her beautiful baby girl, Kenya also opened up about her difficult journey to motherhood , revealing how, at her first ultrasound, doctors couldn’t see the baby’s skeleton and worried Moore had a false pregnancy. Another visit had physicians concerned Moore was having an ectopic tubal pregnancy and would need to be terminated. “There were so many scares along the way,” Moore says, explaining she was seeing an OBGYN and perinatologist (a specialist for high-risk pregnancy) weekly. “We held our breath every time we went to the doctor.” The scares continued for Moore into October, when she tested positive for preeclampsia after noticing swelling in her fit and making a visit to her OBGYN where she made the frightening discovery she’d gained nearly 20 lbs. “In one week, I had gained 17 lbs.” she recalls. “I was like, ‘Wait a minute, is this scale right?’ ‘Cause I remembered specifically what my weight was, and at that point, I was at 203 lbs. already. And then when they weighed me, I was 220 lbs. And I was thinking, ‘Something is not right here. Is the scale broken?’ ” “I called them to give them my blood pressure readings and my reading was through the roof and climbing,” Moore explains. “They told me, ‘Your condition is worsening so get your bags and go straight to the hospital, you’re delivering today.’ “ Frightened, and with Daly still on a plane to Atlanta, Moore recalls bursting into tears. “It was all happening so fast,” she says. “I started crying because I got so scared. I couldn’t get a hold of Marc, I didn’t know what was going to happen. I just remember feeling overwhelmed with emotion. It was really tough.” Kenya delivered Brooklyn Doris (named after the borough where she and hubby Marc Daly met and her grandmother) six weeks early on November 4th, PEOPLE details the emergency c-section revealing how fibroids forced doctors to cut Moore twice — horizontally and vertically, potentially putting her in danger of losing her own life. “They couldn’t get the baby out,” she says. “There were all these complications and they knew if they cut into a fibroid, I could potentially bleed out and die. So they ended up cutting me vertically too, to just get the baby out and make sure I survived the surgery. They were so scared they were going to lose me.” At one point, Moore’s epidural ran out and doctors gave her anesthesia to put her out. She jokes, “When it was all over, my doctor said, ‘This was one for the books.’ ” “They laid her down on my chest, and those screaming cries stopped immediately,” Moore recalls. “She was just so perfect, so tiny. And just like that, all my dreams had come true.” It definitely sounds like a harrowing experience, but Moore says she couldn’t be happier at the outcome. “We’re so in love,” Moore gushes. “Everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong. But she’s such a tough baby; so determined. And every step of the way, she kept surviving and getting stronger. She’s my miracle baby. There’s no other way to describe it, she’s my miracle baby.” It sounds like Brooklyn is a real fighter just like her mom. We’re so glad that things worked out for Kenya and Marc and Brooklyn. And now that the first photos are out of the way we hope Kenya will decide to flood us with photos of her precious princess!
Source: Bravo / Getty Real Housewives of Atlanta is back for its 11th season! Can you believe it? Eleven years of ratchet peaches. Cynthia, Kandi, Porsha, and Nene are back—and so is Eva, who officially got her peach. Eva is in wedding planning mode, Kandi is gallivanting in LA with Xscape, busy winning ASCAP Awards, Cynthia has a new boyfriend who lives in LA (the Fox News sportscaster, Mike Hill) and Porsha got a new man too. We all know by now that Porsha is engaged , but we get to watch it play out this season. In case you didn’t know, her man is Dennis McKinley, an entrepreneur who owns several lounges and the Original Hot Dog Factory . It’s quite clear that he’s loaded and he’s taking Porsha ring shopping. They’re going on a trip to Miami for Porsha’s birthday. Nene and Gregg are dealing with Gregg having stage 3 colon cancer. Nene is obviously a wreck but she’s standing by her hubby. Gregg is committed to fighting the good fight post surgery and so far so good but as a lot of us know, when it comes to cancer, they’re taking things day by day. In happier news, Nene and Porsha’s friendship is back in a good place. Nene helps Porsha find some clothes for her birthday trip, and Porsha does the most to make Nene laugh. It’s cute. Porsha then learns that Nene will be in Miami at the same time doing a comedy show so you know what that means, right? Girls trip! Actually, it’s going to be a surprise girls trip. Porsha calls the girls, even Kandi and invites them down with the intention of surprising Nene. Even Marlo is coming. But as we all know, things are still awkward between Porsha and Kandi and Porsha and Marlo also don’t get along. We’ll see how these dramaful (yes, dramaful) events start to unfold next week. Kenya isn’t returning, but she and her husband recently welcomed a healthy baby girl to the world. Hopefully, we’ll be seeing some of this in cameo appearances. Speaking of baby bumps, hopefully, we’ll be seeing Shamea back on the show (they really need to give her a peach, but whatevs) and of course, we’ll be introduced to newbie satellite friends Shomari DeVoe and Tanya Sam.

Paras Griffin/Getty Images for WE tv Twirl on that! Kenya Moore Spotted Possibly Filming RHOA Season 11 Kenya Moore’s #TeamTwirl is bubbling with rumors that their queen’s made a return to RHOA. Last night Cynthia Bailey celebrated the launch of her new @SeagramsEscapes signature flavor Peach Bellini and ALL of the RHOA crew was in tow; NeNe, Porsha, Kandi, Eva, Marlo and newbies Shamari Devoe and Tanya Sam. Also on hand was a heavily pregnant Kenya Moore who kicked it with Kandi and Cynthia and was seen on Instagram Stories partying. Kenya’s presence at the party has fans speculating that she’s back twirling on RHOA—for one episode at least. This rumor could actually have legs, partygoers claim that they saw Kenya wearing a mic pack and NeNe’s convinced that Kenya’s “desperate” to get back on RHOA. FreddyO.com That’s not all, however, a source is telling another news site a different story. Hit the flip.
For the RHOA stans… Kenya Moore’s Baby Shower Photos It’s almost twirl time for Kenya Moore and the mommy-to-be celebrated with an EPIC royal-themed baby shower. Despite not being on the upcoming season of “Real Housewives of Atlanta”, Kenya’s shower was filled with RHOA stars including Cynthia Bailey, Kandi Burruss, Porsha Williams, and Shamea Morton. Gizelle Bryant of the “Real Housewives of Potomac” was also in attendance. Other guests included Dr. Heavenly and Toya Bush-Harris of “Married to Medicine”… as well as former housewife Claudia Jordan. Noticeably absent however was NeNe Leakes. NeNe’s absence quickly made fans wonder if there was some secret beef brewing between her and the mommy-to-be. A few weeks ago NeNe told the Bossip on WE tv crew that while she doesn’t necessarily miss Kenya, she was certain that she’d be invited to Kenya’s baby shower. “I can’t say that I do [miss her],” said NeNe. “I probably will get an invite, we don’t have any beef. If I don’t that just saves me from buying a gift honey, I can do something else with my bread.” There’s a perfectly good explanation for NeNe’s absence, however, and it’s much less shady than you think! Hit the flip.
