Page 31 was on hand at Madison Square Garden for J Cole’s What Dreams Come True Tour Stop in NYC which happened to fall on his birthday. Towards the end of his stage, J Cole would bring out his mentor Jay Z to the tune of PSA driving the crowd into a frenzy. Jay Z then gifted J Cole with his original Roc A Fella Chain and followed it up with a performance of his hit single Fuck With Me U Know I Got It. Now, turn the page to see J Cole bring out Kendrick and brag about outselling Kanye…
Drugs are bad m’kay … Usher Goes To Panama To Have A Sit Down With Justin Bieber According to TMZ reports : Usher has high-tailed it down to Panama to talk some sense into Justin Bieber … TMZ has learned. Justin and his mentor posed for pics with a woman who appears to be a Panamanian Belieber (they really are everywhere). Sources tell us Usher flew to Panama for a serious come-to-jesus with JB on the heels of his arrest in Miami. We’re told Justin’s manager Scooter Braun, and Justin’s childhood friend Ryan Butler, are also there for the sit-down. Scooter got roped in for a pic with a Belieber at the resort where they’re all staying. We haven’t heard this word used, but this meeting has all the earmarks of an intervention. Worth noting … even the fan who posted the Usher pic acknowledges the kid’s hit rough times, describing him as the youth idol who some love and many others hate. Hopefully this lil bonding time gets Justin to fly right, but we wouldn’t bet on it. Flip it to see the fan pics with Ursher Baby and the Biebs
Justin Bieber has left the country. The singer, who got arrested for drunk driving and drag racing on Thursday and who referenced God in a Tweet to fans yesterday, has been spotted in Panama, where he’s soaking up the sun and hopefully staying off the road. Bieber isn’t alone, however. According to TMZ, Usher (posing below with a fan, who Instagrammed shots of herself with both Usher and Justin) and others close to the artist are also with Bieber, hoping to talk some sense into the troubled young star. Usher, of course, discovered Justin on YouTube and has served as his mentor for years.

Amber Portwood is looking good these days, and not just because she’s no longer forced to wear an orange jumpsuit and can sleep without fear of being shanked. The reformed Teen Mom is celebrating her freedom by creating a new look for herself, and it’s a great one! Check out the difference in hair and makeup: After serving 17 months behind bars, Portwood was released from prison earlier in November, and quickly ditched her previous “mug shot” makeup. Her post-prison makeover definitely gives her a softer look. Amber Portwood recently reunited with daughter Leah and baby daddy Gary Shirley (not in the romantic sense) and is trying to get her life together. So far, so good, and we can only hope she keeps this up. She also got herself some new clothes (hopefully not at Aeropostale), and no longer uses homemade, prison-style hairspray. Really, it’s all looking up. To note just how big an improvement this is … see below:
Teresa Giudice and her husband Joe appeared in federal court yesterday, holding hands on the way inside and pleading not guilty to a pair of new fraud charges . Now, facing the possibility of decades behind bars, The Real Housewives of New Jersey star has hired Wendy Feldman of Custodial Coaching. She describes herself to Us Weekly as a “legal coach and crisis manager,” which are both jobs that apparently exist. Feldman herself spent nearly a year-and-half in prison for securities fraud and has advised other famous clients (such as Lindsay Lohan) during their trials and tribulations. Considering the numerous charges against Giudice, is Feldman on board to prepare this reality star for a long jail sentence? “I have not been hired to prepare either Teresa or Joe Guidice for prison,” Feldman tells Us. “In fact, most of my work is well-known as crisis management oriented. In addition, I am known as director of alternative sentencing at Cliffside Malibu where Ms. Lohan recently was. However, I am acting as the legal coach and crisis manager only for Teresa Giudice.” Teresa Giudice Facing New Fraud Charges Teresa and Joe Giudice were indicted Monday on two new counts of fraud, bringing the total number up to 41. Said Teresa’s attorney in a statement: “As she did with respect to the allegations contained in the original indictment, Teresa intends to plead ‘not guilty’ to the allegations in the new indictment. “She looks forward to defending herself at the trial, scheduled for February 24, 2014. Beyond that, we will answer all of the charges in court, not out.”
The X Factor Top 10 took to the stage last night, with contestants covering a wide range of artists. There were takes on Elton John… One Direction … Queen… and The Beatles, just to name a few. But were any of them actually any good? That’s the question we’ll try to answer below… Rion Page – “Your Song” Jeff Gutt – “Bohemian Rhapsody” Tim Olstad sang John’s “Sorry Seems To Be the Hardest Word” and seemed to lose all control when he stood up and walked away from the keyboard. Not much originality or emotion here. Jeff Gutt went all “Bohemian Rhapsody” on viewers, after talking about his son once again in his introduction video. It was okay. But the songs requires the right kind of theatrical performer – and Gutt isn’t him. Khaya Cohen finished in the Bottom 3 last Thursday and tried to make up for that with “Let It Be.” But the staging was very odd and there was far too much yelping. That’s never a good thing. Josh Levi told us that “Sweet Dreams” were made of this and it was a solid vocal performance. As usual, though, it was also over-produced, as the artist starting off in a red telephone booth for some reason. Still, points for being in tune. Alex & Sierra sang “Best Song Ever” and it was terrific. These two are our favorite. They improved on the original version. Rion Page was a close second, dedicating “Your Song” to her baby brother. Her best vocal to date. Josh Levi – “Sweet Dreams” Alex & Sierra – “Best Song Ever” Carlito Olivero used holograms for his rendition of “I Can’t Get No Satisfaction.” That was plaid weird. The singing itself wasn’t too awful, but not much really stood out. Except for the holograms. And that isn’t a compliment. Lillie McCloud did great work on “This Woman’s Work.” She brought the emotion to Kate Bush’s classic track and nearly made Kelly Rowland cry. Ellona Santiago went with Ellie Goulding’s “Burn” and lacked any real passion while doing so. Some pitch problems also plagued this performance. Restless Road wants to “Fix You,” per Coldplay. Too bad the harmonies were all over the place, making us wonder why Simon Cowell gave the group a standing ovation. Oh, right, he’s their mentor. What a dumb concept. Who was your favorite from the evening? And who do you foresee going home tonight?
