Meet Chelsea Ciara…One Of The Most Beautiful Women In The Game Right Now! But Who Is She Dating?!

Look at this beautiful woman!
So, she may have a name that makes us think of Chelsea Handler and Ciara’s love affairs with Fiddy, but we quickly forget about that when we stare into that lovely face. After doing some googling we saw her fine self, but we also saw a rumor of her with a certain rapper. Take a look at how hot she is then get to the surprise.








But here’s a picture of her with Lil Twist. We don’t know if this means they’re dating or even when it was from. But we do know that it just shattered millions of people’s dreams.

Race Matters… Vanity Fair Tucks Away Their Tokens In Yet Another Hollywood Issue Epic Fail!

What is wrong with this picture? When are the wanksters at Vanity Fair going to learn??? Yeah yeah, we noticed that “at least” you included some black folks this year, but we’re not stupid. That cover folds up, tucking our black beauties Paula Patton and Adepero Oduye (who won raves from critics for her role in the indie film “Pariah”) out of sight and out of mind.

We still haven’t gotten over the sting of 2010, when blacks were shut out completely. The magazine was ripped apart when that happened, and last year they tried to rectify the situation by putting Anthony Mackie and Rashida Jones on the cover. But they two were tucked away, marginalized between the inside margins.

Zoe Saldana and America Ferrara were run off their front cover in 2008

In 2005 they discriminated against multiple races by sending Kerry Washington, Ziyi Zhang and Rosario Dawson on the inside cover.
Who would be dumb enough to hide Salma Hayek’s puppies? Vanity Fair, that’s who. The magazine banished the Latina beauty and Lucy Liu to the dreaded right corner of the cover in 2004.
Rosario also got the right side cover treatment back in 2002.
Jada Pinkett Smith Jennifer Lopez
Jada Pinkett Smith and Jennifer Lopez might sell covers now, but apparently Vanity Fair didn’t think they could back in 1997.
1996 vanity fair will smith
And apparently Will Smith wasn’t quite in Leonardo DiCaprio’s league in 1996.
1995 Vanity Fair
Angela Bassett held it down for the inside cover in 1995.
Djimon Hounsou 1998
And here’s the evidence that Vanity Fair is fully capable of putting a black Hollywood actor on their cover. We may as well applaud them for the few times they did the right thing. Djimon Hounsou made the cut in 1998.
thandie newton 1999
Thandie Newton won the honor in 1999
chris rock 2007
And Chris Rock rocked it out in 2007.
Still… We’re waiting for the day when VF will choose more than two people of color for their Hollywood issue AND show them prominently displayed. Actually scratch the WAITING part. We’re demanding it.

Rumor Control: Amber Rose Confirms The Tattoo Is…

Real or fake? *Suspense!*

We already showed you pictures of Amber and her tattoo…but we weren’t sure if it was real or fake. Well, we finally got the skinny.

Here’s the word from Amber herself? “Ms Dottie (my crazy west african mom) would slap the Cape Verdean outta my ass if I got a tat like that on my face I was just having fun.”

So, there it goes. The whole thing is fake. *Gasp* Amber Rose sloring for attention? Why, we never!

Twitpic Files: Kimmy Cakes Puts Her Tig Ole Bitties On Display… Just To Show Off Her Lighter Locks!

Kim Kardashian showed off her red racy rack… oh and her hair too. The 31-year-old soon-to-be divorcee wanted to show off her new hair color so — of course –she stripped down to a sexy red bra and snapped away, showing her more than 12 million Twitter followers her sultry self portrait.
Do you like the new do?

Gabrielle Union Covers Ocean Drive Magazine, Speaks About Her Career, Starting A Family, And Her Life With D-Wade

Gabrielle Union is on the cover of Ocean Drive magazine where she discusses an assortment of topics such as living with her boo Dwyane Wade to starting a family..
On keeping her house in California
“[It has been] great because I have my own career and life elsewhere, I have a home I paid for with my own money, and I need to be able to nurture that as well.”
On life with Dwyane Wade in Miami
“D and I have a life together, too. I love my life in Miami, I can’t imagine functioning without both, I love the design district, I love Midtown, I love what’s happening downtown now. I can be at People’s Bar-B-Que or Sustain or Prime One Twelve, and I’m comfortable. It’s rare for me to feel that level of freedom. Miami represents joy for me.”
On getting sick when she’s away from Miami:
“A week away is pretty much it for me. When I land in Miami, I feel like I’ve been holding my breath and am finally exhaling. I can breathe. I feel accepted, welcomed. I feel like I can be my true self, the woman I always aspired to be… More in Miami than any other place.”



On seeing a more diversely cast group of lead actresses:“It’s great for the other groups that are getting a chance to play more roles, and ideally, I’d like to think there were enough roles for everyone. But we are trying to get [filmmakers and producers] to consider that the doctor, a lawyer, even the lead could be an African-American woman.”

Shy by name, but not by nature! French singer Shy'm turns up to NRJ awards wearing COMPLETELY transparent corset

She's barely known outside her native France.But R&B singer Shy'm certainly made an impression at last night's NRJ Awards.The 26-year-old turned up at the Palais des Festivals et des Congres in Cannes wearing a transparent plastic corset with white tinsel-like material interspersed to create a frosted effect.

Her stunning figure was on full display - though to an extreme which might make viewing her performance before the watershed a little questionable.Shy'm wore a toga-like white sheet around her waist to form a skirt, creating a Grecian-style effect- and bared a great deal of thigh in the process.The star wore her hair in a long ponytail, choosing smoked-out eyes and red lipstick to define her delicate facial features.

Tamera Mowry Talks Date Nights and Giving Up Space as a Newlywed


Eight months after walking down the aisle,Tamera Mowry and her husband, Adam Housley, have 
pretty much gotten the hang of newlywed life. But as she told PEOPLEmagazine, it’s not all roses after the honeymoon. “In the beginning, you have this adjustment phase, now we’ve kind of got used to our own little rhythm,” she says.

One of the biggest adjustments the couple had to make was giving up personal space, she says, which was evident on season one of her reality show Tia and Tamera on the Style Network.

“I’m so used to having my bathroom all to myself and my poor husband’s like, ‘I need to get in. I need to get in.’ He needs his own space, too, so we had to learn that.”

Despite a few expected hiccups, Tamera and her husband still seem to be in the honeymoon phase somewhat, making sure they take time to let one another know how much they mean to each other.

We text each other little love notes and we always have date night. Adam always brings something home from wherever because he travels the world.”

Quality time is also important, she adds. “Sometimes we travel the world where it’s just us. We enjoy each other, we love history, we love art, we love culture, so that’s how we do it!”

What Men Want! Joan Smalls Makes “Lust List” for ‘GQ’ Magazine


February has been deemed the month of love, and in next months GQ issue, the fellas (and ladies) will fall in love with Joan Smalls. The Puerto Rican fashion model debuts at the top of the “Lust List” and serves up plenty of sex appeal.

Rocking a white Louis Vuitton leather, OYE bikini bottoms and gold Manolo Blahnik pumps the look defines sultry and stunning. Her facial features which include a berry lip and smokey eyes give the feature a signature lusty look. The Vixen is certainly the perfect choice to top GQ’s list.

What do you think of Joan’s look?

Can Men Watch Reality TV in Peace?



A slew of reality shows appear on our television every day, and a lot of them cater to a woman’s incessant need to watch drama. We’ve gotBasketball WivesLove & Hip-HopBad Girls ClubReal Housewives of AtlantaJersey ShoreTeen Mom and a list of other shows that focus on love, sex, relationships, etcetera. My problem? Men, quote unquote, cannot tune into this shows without running the risk of having their manhood called into question. I chuckle at the notion. I mean, sure we’d rather a man tweet about a game of sports than Snooki’s latest drunken smush, but whatever floats your boat is cool with me. There are four male perspectives on the Jersey Shore that our men can identify with.
There’s definitely some shows that men and women can watch together, i.e., Love & Hip-Hop. Several scenarios in the storyline relate to how a man thinks, how he acts and what he says to his woman, especially with Emily B and Chrissy. Basketball Wives, on the other hand, has plenty of beautiful women that a man can, at the very least, gawk at. I’ve watch guys across my timeline get a kick out of watching the way they don’t want their women to conduct themselves in public, and it doesn’t seem like they’re being “less of a man” at all. On the contrary, it sparks some pretty good debates.
Of course, there are questionable TV spots, like Teen Mom and Bad Girls Club, that I feel a guy just might not be able to get into. You may question why he’s not watching basketball instead on that one, but I challenge us to be a bit more open-minded, ladies. I know plenty of guys who just like to stay in-the-know on television or can simply root for the males on these women-centric shows.
What do you think, Vixens? Can men finally watch reality TV shows in peace?

Think Like A Man’ Sequel?



The first silver screen adaptation of Steve Harvey‘s book isn’t out yet, but Sony Pictures has already given the word on a sequel. Hours ago, Will Packer of Rainforest Films tweeted:
“Pres of Sony/Screen Gems just announced a sequel to @ThinkLikeAMan on @IAmSteveHarvey!!!!!”
Could it be? We haven’t even seen if the first one is any good yet. However, the trailer does indicate some funny, ‘Yes, girl!’ moments to come. Starring film faves Gabrielle UnionMeagan GoodTaraji P. HensonMichael Ealy, Regina Hall and comedian Kevin Hart, this movie may already have winning box office numbers in the bag.
What do you think? Did Sony Pictures jump the gun?

Kardashian’s Launch Denim Line



The Kardashian’s have launched a new Kollection of jeans specifically designed to meet women’s individual figures. Kim took to Twitter last night to announce the new Sears denim line which features three styles named after each sister. She tweeted:

“I’m wearing The Kim, which is a sexy, low cut, straight leg jean. Then Kourtney is wearing The Kourtney, a gorgeous skinny leg jean, and Khloe is wearing The Khloe, a tall curvy, high rise, boot cut!! The jeans come in different washes so you can choose the fit and wash that’s perfect for you!”
Sounds like the sisters have their bases covered. We’ll have to see how the denim adds to their other lines of swimwear, clothing, and accessories.

Will you give their denim kollection a try?

Gayle King Shuts Down Rumors, Confirms That Oprah Is NOT Blue Ivy Carter’s Godmother


For those of you running around thinking Oprah is the godmommy of Baby Blue Ivy Carter, Gayle King says helllll to the nawl:

She hasn’t even had time to send a baby gift because she’s been away.”Then Gayle pulls away from her staunch stance stating, “Let me just say, if (that report is) true, it is news to her.
