Style Star: Tia Mowry

Tia Mowry is one of TV's hottest starlets. Her run on THE CW's "The Game" as Melanie has showed that she has came a long way from her "Sister Sister" days. Her style is fun and sexy, with out being overt. She truly is a style star.

Artist Spotlight: Dear Jayne

Lately I have been digging this group Dear Jayne.
Dear Jayne is a R&B girl group: real voices, compelling charisma, swagger and good looks. America, meet Dear Jayne. This Atlanta based trio is comprised of Ashley, 22, Jasmine, 22, and Lindsey, 19. Ashley, the high-pitched firebrand from Los Angeles’ notorious Crenshaw area; Jasmine, a versatile, choir-trained transplant from tiny Coco Beach, Florida; Lindsey, soulful, smoky native talent from Atlanta’s College Park district. They have 2 songs that stay on repeat on the i-pod : "Rain" and "Fallback".

Our favorite socialite Kim Kardashian is truly a style star. Whether its everyday attire or glamming it up for the red carpet homegirl is fierce. She is known for wearing Herve Leger dresses that wrap around her famous curves. Go ahead Kimmy!!!

New Albums: Beyonce and John Legend

It's Tuesday and we all know what that means...NEW MUSIC!!! So today we are reviewing two CD's by two incredible artists.

First we have the long awaited I Am...Sasha Fierce by the great Beyonce Knowles. The new double disk CD lets out Beyonce's alter ego Sasha Fierce. I know we all wondered how sweet demure Beyonce turns into a fabulous beast on stage...the answer: she transforms into Sasha Fierce. The CD's has her two current singles "If I Were a Boy" and the ladies anthem "Single Ladies(Put a Ring on It)". Another cut that I love off the new album is "Ego" with lyrics such as I know I'm killing you with them legs/ Better yet them thighs/Matter of fact its my smile...who could resist.

Second, we have Mr. John Legend. His music is incredibly soothing and with his velvet voice this CD is a certified banger. His first single "Greenlight" feat. Andre 3000 is banger in the clubs and showed that Legend not only can sing you a slow jam but also can get you up and dancing. My favorite cut off the new CD is "Good Morning" because it has an old school feel to it.

Style Star: Sanaa Lathan

Sanaa Lathan is truly a style star. Her style is composed of elegance, poise, fun and sexy. She knows what compliments her figure and indulges in color. Sanaa keeps her acessories simple and her footwork is off the charts.

YES WE DID!!!!

Yes we can and yes we did. I am excited that Barack Obama is officially president elect Barack Obama. This is such a historical moment. Knowing that my grandparents and other relatives fought during the 1960's to be equal and now they are still alive to experience the first African American President is truly a blessing. I am excited to see people who look like me in the White House.

Jessica Alba's Million Dollar Baby

Actress Jessica Alba and her hubby Cash Warren inked a deal for $1.5 million for the first pictures of their baby Honor Marie Warren. Mommy and baby are on the new cover OK magazine.

Some excerpts from the article:

When asked about her delivery: "I didn't scream," Jessica tells OK! in an exclusive interview and photoshoot. "It was really Zen." And Cash could only marvel at his wife's quiet strength when she gave birth. "She didn't make a sound," he says. "It was amazing."

When asked who does Honor looks like: "She looks like a girl version of me," Cash says. "She has my nose, my eyebrows and my..."

"Forehead and dimples," Jessica finishes, adding, "She has my mouth when I was a baby. And my ears."

"Maybe Honor is a mixture," Cash reconsiders. "I want her to look like me, because a daughter looking like Jessica, I'd kill myself!"

Teyana, Keri and Solange cover the new issue of Rap-Up Magazine

Three of the "hottest" up-coming artist are featured in the new Summer of '08 issue of Rap-Up. Here are some excerpts from that issue:


Solange Knowles:

On being in Beyoncé’s shadow: “At this point, it’s starting to hurt me more than helpme because my family is sort of known as the new age Huxtables. We’re the clean-cutgirls. But I got married at 17, had a kid at 17. Ever since I was younger, I alwaysconsidered myself to be into more artistic things than [Beyoncé]. People just hear the[Knowles] name and they just put a stamp on it automatically.”


Keri Hilson:

On dating her mentors Timbaland and Polow Da Don: “Oh hell no. I neverconsidered them for a second. Firstly because I never mix business with pleasure. I’venever dated anybody I had to work with ever. So you’ll never see that. Not now, not inthe past, not in the future.”


Teyana Taylor:

On who she admires: “Lauryn Hill because of her voice and her confidence. Justeverything about her is so dope. From her being a rapper and a singer to the stuff shetalks about. I get so happy and start blushing when people say that I am like her.”

Rosci & Terrance Beef that May Have Gotten Rosci Suspended???

Last Friday Rosci and Terrance had some on-air beef. After Terrance had been cracking jokes on Rosci all show long, he pulled the last straw when he clowned her about her breath and she stormed off, leaving Terrance to host the remainder of the show. Well it seems that this whole situation may have gotten Rosci suspended. (Hence the Keri Hilson co-hosting 106 & Park with Terrance).

Brangelina's Twins are Finally Here!!!

Yung Berg Doesn't Date Anyone Darker than Him...

Lets take a moment to listen to the ignorance that is Yung Berg. In a recent radio interview Yung Berg said he wouldn't date anyone darker than him...hmmm seeing that he is two shades from crossing that color line that presents a problem. Then he proceeds to call dark skinned women "dark butts"...is anyone else baffled by this tomfoolery! Its not enough other races degrade us and say some ignorant things about us and now this fool is adding his foolishness. Listen for yourself at the link.

On the set: Ashanti and Nelly "Body on Me" & Keri Hilson "Energy"

New Pics from the set of Keri Hilson's video for her first single "Energy" and Keri is doing the damn thing. Keri told BET's The Black Carpet that the concept of the video is she is a boxer and her boyfriend is her trainer and their work relationship starts to affect the love relationship. I see the cutie from Madea Goes to Jail, the play, is playing her boyfriend. Like I said before Keri is the next "It" girl.

Ashanti and her boo Nelly's video for her single "Body on Me". Shani is looking great and Nelly is looking sexy as ever. The video looks colorful and fun. Can't wait to see the video.
