Pharrell Williams Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame: Kisses Ellen

Nicki Minaj shared the fierce shot above on her Instagram with the caption, “Italian Vogue.” We’re taking that to mean “The Pinkprint” rapstress is going to be on the next cover. Nicki’s covered countless magazines: Elle, Vibe, Marie Claire, Allure, Billboard…usually in her bubblegum pink pop style, but this image is giving us haute couture realness and we’re here for it!

Nicki’s toned down her colorful image for a more demure and sophisticated style. Ditching the cotton candy wigs and often donning black bobs or sleek long tresses with bangs, we’re seeing a softer side of the superstar. In her latest track, “All Things Go,” Nicki opens up about losing a pregnancy and saying “I suppose” to a proposal. It’s refreshing to see this side of Nicki–she’s getting real. We’ve got to get our hands on a copy of “The Pinkprint.”

Somehow our invite must have gotten lost in the email. Lauryn Hill performed a two hour set at Brooklyn Bowl’s concert special, “Live From The Brooklyn Bowl.” But we’re not too sad because we just found out that we can watch this show as it airs throughout December on Pay-Per-View and On Demand. But in the meantime, check out Ms. Hill performing The Fugees classic, “Ready or Not” above.

Next time, we best get our invite Lauryn! PS–You look cute girl! Lovin’ that skirt and outside bra!

Up Next: Debbie Allen Comments On Bill Cosby & Avoids It All At The Same Time

Actress, choreographer, director and all-around phenomenal woman Debbie Allen appeared on the “Today” show to promote her musical “Hot Chocolate Nutcracker” and Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford would be remiss if they didn’t ask her about Bill Cosby’s rape allegations. Allen’s sister is Phylicia Rashad and because we all watched the Cosby Show growing up, we know she played Cosby’s wife for eight years.

No one has ever been as close to Cosby as Allen is and danced around answering the controversial question of what the heck is going on with Cosby like she did. Allen not only managed to praise Cosby’s contributions to the Black community, but highlight her role as a womanist and she brought it home by bringing up worldly issues that should still have our attention. Gotta love her! Check out Allen’s epic response:

“It begs to ask the bigger question–where’s the moral spine in America and in the world today. How are we raising our daughters, our sons? Where are we looking for the guidance for how we’re supposed to live. Cosby gave us one of the greatest shows in history and redefined the perception of Black people all over the world. Then, at the same time, I am a part of One Billion Rising–a movement for women to stand up against violence and denigration of women. This is a tough situation and it’s hard to believe. I don’t know–so much time is passed before they have all come together. My mother asks me everyday, ‘Why now? Why are these people trying to destroy his legacy?’ My mother is really upset. You know there’s people who are totally rooting for this to end and standing in line to see his show. There’s people who are like, ‘This happened and we have to stand together.’ It has to be looked at. If there’s a problem, we have to get some help for that. I still want to know where the girls who were stolen in Africa…we’re talking about denigration of women and what happens to women, where are those girls? Talking about the moral code in America, we have elected politicians who are moving the goalpost for eligibility to vote. I am shifting the conversation because I think all of this is part of the same thing. We’re going into the holiday season and we need E.T. come down just to tell us that we’re little the world of the vast universe and we need to come together. We have to find some civility.”

We bet Pharrell Williams is Happpppyyyy! (We couldn’t resist) The 41-year-old musical genius has finally been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but the bigger news is that he brought along Ellen DeGeneres with him to celebrate and she planted a big juicy kiss on his lips! Photographers had a field day as they snapped photos of the liplock. We all know Ellen enough to know that this kiss means nothing, but at least it makes headlines!

The singer-songwriter, rapper, record producer, and fashion designer and seven-time Grammy winning artist actually brought along his wife Helen Lasichanh and son Rocket to celebrate this milestone in his impressive career. Pharrell’s family clapped as he his award and Ellen’s accompanying speech.

We never wanted to believe that Young Jeezy could brutally beat his 17-year-old son Jadarius. Reports claim that Jeezy slammed him into a glass shower door, beat him in the face and had his bodyguards prevent Jadarius from leaving until Jeezy was done beating him. Jeezy claimed his son’s mother, Tenesha Dykes exaggerated the entire story, although he did admit to an argument brewing between them and he shoved him to the ground.
