Is Tyrese Appearing On “Empire”??? Could there be a Jody/Yvette reunion in the works on an upcoming episode of “Empire” ??? Well if Tyrese has any say in it, than the answer to that question is ‘yes’. The actor recently took to Instagram in character as Jody from “Baby Boy” to express his disgust at his “b****” Yvette getting “felt up on” on “Empire” and is going to get her back. Ooooh! That’s not all that happened however, what does Cookie’s security boo Malcom/Derek Luke think about this??? Hit the flip.
Is Kim Kardashian Copying This Pop Star? This is Jelena Karleusa, a Serbian pop star with a huge Eastern European following — known in the states in smaller circles mainly for her slick personal style. Does she happen to remind you of anyone?? If you think she looks a WHOLE lot like Kim Kardashian circa Paris Fashion Week, you aren’t alone. Jelena herself even seems to be under the impression that Kanye Kimmy Cakes’ style team is taking cues from looks she’s been cultivating on her own for YEARS to give the reality diva an edgier look…right down to her freshly dyed icy blonde locks . She’s been posting her own comparison shots to Instagram for the past few days, noting how her #TBTs are suddenly Kim’s #OOTDs: But the 36-year-old pop-star says she doesn’t blame Kim for playing dress up. After all, she doubts any of it is her idea anyway. As she told US Weekly earlier today: “I think that her stylists are inspired by my IG page, not her. I don’t have a stylist, I do it all by myself. She is beautiful, so it doesn’t matter if she put anything on her head. She doesn’t need hair at all.” Even though Kim is turning into a virtual Jelena clone with her cleavage-baring, monochromatic looks and newly cut and bleached ‘do, the singer swears she isn’t mad. She just…notices things. The likeness is uncanny as all hell. Welp, like Jelena said…let’s play! Hit the flip to see if you can tell who’s who between these two… Instagram / WENN / Splash / FFN
Iman Shumpert Clarifies “Empire” Comments Remember when we told you that Iman Shumpert believes “Empire” ripped off the likeness of himself and his girlfriend Teyana Taylor for the characters Hakeem and Tiana? “They’re using my girl’s character, her style, her look and she’s not getting anything for it,” Shumpert said. “They didn’t even change her name. They could have at least let my girl audition for the part instead of stealing her character completely. “And come on man, they’re really using a guy with a flat top like me. Come on. That’s ridiculous. They never called us. We were blindsided. We found out by our family and fans when the show aired.” Well after getting endless slander… and some quiet time to ponder things over, Iman’s got something else to say. Soooo does Teyana’s man reaaaaally think Hakeem and Tiana are a knockoff of their bae-ship???? Hit the flip.
Tiki Barber’s Wife Traci Lynn Johnson To Replace Teresa Giudice On RHONJ Interracial love in New Jersey? PLOT TWIST! Via NYDailyNews Teresa Giudice may be replaced as the star of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey,” and Tiki Barber’s wife is a front-runner to take her spot, Confidenti@l has learned. Originally Bravo planned to shelve the reality show until jailbird Giudice gets released in early 2016 after a 13-month sentence for fraud. But we’re told producers now are hustling to keep their options open and have been quietly preparing for a new season without her. “They don’t know where it stands with Teresa doing the show or not doing the show or when she’s getting out,” said an insider. “So they’re prepping for either way. Anyway, they need to shake up the cast — last season’s cast was terrible.” With several veteran cast members — including Jacqueline Laurita, Caroline Manzo and Kathy Wilke — having departed as full-time cast members, fans didn’t warm to a mixed bag of newcomers in the show’s sixth season. Producers hope that Traci Lynn Johnson, wife of former Giant and ex-“Today” show correspondent Barber, can take Giudice’s place. This should be interesting. No tellin’ what these catty broads are gonna say about Traci and her sweet black love. Image via WENN
Lil Mo Blasts A Fan On Instagram Lil Mo recently went all the way IN on a disrespectful fan who dissed her reality TV show. It all started when user @greendreams4 dissed Mo’s show “R&B Divas” and the songstress clapped back by threatening to post her engagement ring. She then followed through with the threat and put the fan’s bling on blizzy for her 285,000 followers to see. Well dayum. Was it that serious Mo??? Hit the flip for more.
Chris Brown Wants To Be A Better Example For His Daughter It seems that new-fatherhood has the R&B crooner changing his tune. He doesn’t want to refer to women as b*tches and hoes anymore, seeing as now he has to help raise a woman and teach her how to love and respect herself. As a source recently told HollywoodLife , he has newfound regrets on the things he’s recorded and wants to turn a whole new leaf: “The baby has humbled him in a way and he regrets some of the music he’s made, particularly the words he’s used to describe women. He really doesn’t want to continue making music where he‘s calling women b**ches and hoes and other derogatory words.” “It’s been getting under his skin when he‘s performed “Loyal” and “Ayo” and other songs on his tour because he‘s straight up dogging women in the lyrics. He would hate for someone to one day call his daughter a b*tch or a hoe. That would make him very upset and he would have a big problem with someone disrespecting his daughter.” “Everyday he realizes he‘s a father, to a girl no less, and he wants to start making changes to raise his girl right and to be a good example of a man.” Well that’s a positive change — hopefully that will translate to how he actually TREATS women and speaks to/about them in real life too, not just in the studio.
North West Stops For Paparazzi Pics North typically takes after Yeezy when she’s out in public — famously mean-mugging the photogs. Nori apparently relaxed her constantly stank attitude toward the paparazzi for a moment last month. Cameras caught her on an outing with Mom in the states (pre-Paris Fashion Week) and got her to pause to get flashed by the paparazzi after they tapped on the glass — unbeknownst to Kim: Not exactly a smile…but still a far cry from this, huh? Looks like someone is warming up to the spotlight. Of course the “ Kim forgot Ignori ” jokes are swirling again, but it looks like she really thought North was right next to her — toddlers do have a tendency to move 50 feet when you blink. But either way…how cute is this baby? Instagram
Madonna Confirms Relationship With Tupac Madonna finally confirmed the long-standing rumor that she and Tupac had swirly smash sessions back in the 90’s. The pop superstar spoke on one of the industry’s worst-kept secret during a Wednesday interview with Howard Stern. When they got on the topic of her interviews with David Letterman where she often seemed annoyed and ready to curse him out, Madonna revealed that her then-boo Tupac had once hyped her up and made her feel “gangsta,” making her feel bold enough to test the censors on live TV. Take a listen: Well there you have it. We pretty much already knew this…but there’s no denying it from the horse’s mouth. Tumblr
Hacker Group Anonymous Targets Kanye West Amber is that you ?! Wearing the hacker group’s signature Guy Fawkes mask, popularized by the movie “V for Vendetta,” a man presenting himself as a representative of the group details the reasons Kanye deserves to get exposed — including his recent post-Grammy’s rant, and general spotlight-stealing antics. The man even mentions West’s deceased mother Donda and references daughter North West. However what information they plan to leak remains unclear… This comes hot on the heels of rumors that Kanye’s personal laptop was stolen … However, seeing as how the group still hasn’t made good on their threats against Iggy , it seems doubtful that anything will come of it.
