Kelly Rowland Poses Nude For Elle Magazine (Shot By Lance Gross)

 

Kelly Rowland or Kelly Glowland? Because the mom-to-be is giving off glowing, ethereal pregnant queen goddess tease in Elle magazine!

With one hand covering her growing boobs and another holding her baby bump, Kelly takes part in the tradition of pregnant celebrity moms posing nude in her latest photo spread. The image was captured by actor and celebrity photographer Lance Gross, and also includes a few clothed shots as well, where Kelz looks just as gorgeous in a tuxedo and dresses, as she does in the buff.

For the interview portion of the feature, Kelly gushes about beginning her journey as a new mom (she’s due in a couple of weeks) and how she plans to raise her son while balancing her career. She also shares the secret behind her enviable glow (hint: cocoa butter on deck!), the yummy treats she’s been craving, and not understanding why nude pregnancy shots are so frowned upon.

Peep the highlights:

    On what she looks forward most to about motherhood:

    I can’t wait until he gets here. I just have a couple more weeks. I’m excited to bring a child into the world, and sharing that experience with my husband is probably the most beautiful part.

    Her cravings:

    I love cherry pie and chocolate ice cream with peanut butter mixed in it. And I had a week straight where I was obsessed with nachos.

    On her pregnancy beauty regimen:

    I’ve switched out anything with harsh chemicals. I use nothing but shea butter, pure cocoa butter and coconut oil. It’s amazing how all of those things work so well for my skin. I’m going to continue to just use those after the baby gets here.

    On the kind of celebrity mom she plans on being:

    I just plan to play it by ear. Everybody has their normal. And sometimes, award shows are a part of that. I have girlfriends who have that experience, and they’ll say ‘You know, I just really didn’t want to be without my child today.’ And it’s just that simple. It’s about finding your normal, whatever that may be.

    On posing nude:

    Some pregnant women get flack for nude photos. Why was it important to you to include those in the shoot?
    I don’t know why they would get flack. It’s really—I won’t say amazing—it’s Godmazing [laughs] watching your body carry a human. I took a birthing class and I was amazed by all the things this woman was saying to me about birthing and what the body does naturally. Why wouldn’t you want to celebrate that? The body should be celebrated.

    On balancing being a mom, a wife and an entertainer:

    I watch Diana Ross and Donna Summer and all these women—they’ve managed to do it all. I think ‘What makes me different? I can definitely do it.’ And this is something I’ve wanted. I’ve been talking about babies since last year. I believe I spoke it into existence during a conversation with my friend, and I feel like I became pregnant overnight! And she said all we need is a community of strong people around us, and we rely on each other and our families.

    On rumors she’ll be playing Donna Summer in upcoming biopic:

    All these rumors! I was just with my glam squad, we were having fun and we saw this beautiful picture of a Donna Summer record. I was like ‘let’s try to do this look!’ I love Donna Summer. I love how she’s this sex goddess, and she’s so beautiful and powerful onstage. So we mocked up a cover and I posted a picture. That’s all it was! But it would be an amazing opportunity to play her.

Sisqo and Jagged Edge’s Kyle Norman Fight Backstage at Concert [VIDEO]

Former R&B superstar Sisqo got into a little tussle with Jagged Edge crooner Kyle “Quick” Norman. No this is not a joke. Apparently, an R&B beef has been brewing between the two and it came to a head at a show in California over the weekend.

It all went down backstage at a R&B throwback concert. Sisqo tried to bless the J.E. member with a proper fade but failed miserably. Norman was able to get the upper hand and thrash the Dru Hill singer across the room.

According to eyewitnesses, who posted a 15-second video on Instagram, both men accepted their lumps and shook hands afterward.

“Sisqo & Kyle from Jagged Edge caught the rare FADE backstage at Concord Pavilion yesterday & being the boxing promoter that he is @mobetta_mochedda caught it all on tape !!! #SomethingInTheBayWater #TheyShookHandsLikeMenAfter,” read the caption on an Instagram video of the brawl.

No word on why Sisqo and Norman had beef. Although, during an interview with Power 105′s ‘The Breakfast Club,’ Norman did reveal he had an issue with Sisqo.

Apparently, Jagged Edge bumped into Sisqo in an elevator and he didn’t speak to them. Sisqo claims he was half asleep so he didn’t see them, to which Norman replied, “Stay sleep then bitch.”

Well, at least Sisqo and Norman were able to settle their beef like grown men.

Kim Kardashian Goes Nude For British GQ

With a hacker leaking celebrity nudes left and right, Kim Kardashian doesn’t have to worry about a thing because she’s already as naked as her mama made her in the pages of British GQ.

Last night, the super famous reality star and her hubby Kanye hit the red carpet of the GQ Men Of The Year Awards in London, where she received “Woman Of The Year” honors, and her new hot cover was unveiled.  But it is her nude spread inside the latest issue that has tongues wagging.

Peep a few:

Just last month, Kanye covered American GQ, so it looks as though they are being promoted as package deals to fashion publications.   Back in May, the couple also covered Vogue together with their daughter North West. What do you think about this celebrities going nude for magazine?  Comments below...

Baby North West Stunts In A $1450 YSL Purse

Baby Nori is only 14 months old and she’s already styling on grown folks!

Monday evening, Kim and Kanye’s offspring was seen arriving at a London hotel while wearing stripes like her mama and Dr. Martens boots.  And because every girl needs a good purse, Nori also carried a black studded YSL mini purse with a chain strap, valued at around $1450.

What was she carrying in that thang? A diamond crusted pacifier? Organic fruit snacks? A key to her baby Benz?

Meanwhile, Nori is already being touted as a fashion icon in the making.  While most of us are asking, “Isn’t it a bit too early for all that?” Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld doesn’t think so.  Via CR Fashion Book:

    “In our latest preview from our fifth Fashion Book, we reveal the youngest subject to be photographed in a story entitled ‘Legends,’ that celebrates the unconventional side of fashion icon status. Karl Lagerfeld sums up our sentiments best—it’s never to early to start. In this case, we’d agree that 13 months is on the earlier end, but CR predicts a bright fashion future for the already famed daughter of Kanye and past cover star, Kim.”

The Most Stylish 9-Year-Old CEO You’ll Ever Meet

Cory Nieves

You know how they say it’s never too late to go for your dreams?  It’s never too early either!

Meet Cory Nieves. He’s nine and pretty much awesome.

While most of us were probably still attempting to perfect our cursive handwriting at age nine, Cory Nieves is running a full-fledged cookie business. He’s the founder and CEO of Mr. Cory’s Cookies, his own booming cookie business that he started in an effort to help his mom buy a car after moving from NYC to New Jersey in 2009.

But what sets the curly-haired entrepreneur apart from the competition is his GQ-approved sense of style. The boy’s sharp!

Scroll through his Instagram and you’ll see nothing but shots of the Ralph Lauren-lover looking super stylish in suits, linens, blazers, oxfords, you name it!

And if you think it’s his mom dressing him, guess again. It’s all him. When asked by strangers if she dresses her son, Cory’s mom usually replies, “Do you see what I have on? I need my son to dress me.” LOL!

Check out some of his trendy looks below!

Now that he has helped buy his mom a car, Cory is now focusing on earning enough money from his cookie business to pay his college tuition when the time comes.  If presentation is the key to success, this little guy will go very far.

You can check him out on Instagram or his company’s website, Mr. Cory’s.

Surprising!!! :- Ciara Calls Out US Weekly For Posting A Fake Interview

 

With Ciara and Future’s relationship reportedly a wrap, everyone seems to want that first quote from Ciara.

And apparently, nobody wants it more than US Weekly because they went ahead and ran an interview that Cici is claiming never happened.

The web publication broke the story of the split yesterday morning and now they’ve posted an “exclusive” claiming Ciara told them that she’s very happy and focused on being a working mom.

    I want to be one of those moms and women that when I look back, I know that I always stayed focused,” she explained. “It’s about keeping your eyes on the prize. Before I had a child, I had goals. And I still have to accomplish those goals, but now that I have a child, I have more goals to accomplish. So I can’t waste time. I have to go for it. It’s actually pushing me harder, and forward. I’m in an even more expressive place. I think that when you become a mom… you don’t really worry about the small stuff. I’m just way more centered. It makes you focus even more on what your goals are in life. And I just feel a whole new spiritual energy that’s happening.”

Okay, now here’s where things get confusing.  Ciara took to her Twitter yesterday also and slammed the magazine for posting an interview that she says she did not do, however she never mentioned if their original report that said she ended her engagement with Future was true or not.

She posted:

    I did not do this interview with you! This is a lie, and tasteless! Must you be that thirsty to create a story?! Unbelievable!

She did indeed do a round of interviews on Tuesday while she was filming an episode of MTV’s House of Style, including one with E! Online.

In the interview, when asked about Future, she answered with a quick smile:

    We have crazy schedules, but we work it out!

She also revealed, while talking about her son:

    When I tell you it’s the most life-changing experience ever. It’s been the most beautiful experience. I feel like my son has been a gift from God and I’m enjoying every bit of it.

For now, it looks as though we may have to wait for Ciara or Future to release some music to hear the truth from their own mouths.

Ciara and Future Are Officially Done!

 Well it’s official.

Over the past few months, there has been speculation that Ciara and Future were no longer together, and now US Weekly has confirmed that yes, the two are over.

According to the mag, Ciara has ended her 10-month engagement and two-year relationship to the Honest rapper/singer over cheating allegations. Speaking with sources close to the former couple, they say Ciara is “devastated” and that she’s now focused on raising their baby.

She’s also back on her grind in the studio and making television appearances as well.

Meanwhile, just last month, Ciara covered Brides Magazine, and it seems as though she dropped a few hints that there was trouble in paradise during her emotional behind-the-scenes interview (filmed months beforehand.)

While revealing how Future first stole her heart by being so sweet and gentle, she started to cry while explaining:

    With love, I was kinda like, ‘You know what? I’m gonna really close that door off and if something hits me then it just has to hit me.’

    The conversation was amazing and we [were] just talking and he was so sweet and he was so gentle. I don’t know why I’m getting emotional. He was just really, really a sweetheart. So either way…I don’t know why I’m getting emotional right now.

    I wasn’t looking at him for that part of life. Like, I wasn’t looking at him to look for love. Just like meeting an amazing person, we’re gonna work together, have a good time. But I had a double take at one point in time and I was like, ‘This guy is really handsome. He’s really cute. He’s really tall!’ You don’t know what to expect when you meet somebody…’

Her emotions in the interview came across as though she was a little hurt versus happy, however she was still wearing her engagement ring at the time.

It’s unfortunate that this relationship did not work out with some folks feeling as though it was doomed from the start.

Dr. Boyce Watkins (a former professor at Syracuse University who is currently promoting the book “Financial Lovemaking”) wrote an interesting article last week listing four reasons why he felt the relationship was doomed from Day 1, and he revealed:

    1) If a man has three baby’s mamas when he meets you, there’s a good chance that you’re going to be baby mama number 4

    2) There are patterns to every person’s past and it’s up to you whether you’re going to see them or not

    3) Men with a lot of kids are almost always going to be broke:

    4) If a man raps about all the women he’s been with, dealing drugs and screwing up his life, there is a chance that he might really “be about that life.”

But change is possible, right? And should we judge a person on their past? Unfortunately, the news of the couple splitting proved a few of his points to be right.

As far as the cheating rumors, there are whispers that Future may have been cheating on Ciara with a woman he claimed was his stylist. SMH!

She will definitely bounce back from this.

Nick Cannon To Play Richard Pryor In New Biopic?

First Whitney Houston and then Aaliyah…and now Richard Pryor? ‘Tis the season to film a biopic!

It hasn’t been confirmed just yet but a few strong clues have revealed that actor Nick Cannon may be taking on the role as legendary comedian Richard Pryor soon. For the past week, Nick has been on Instagram posting vintage black and white shots of Richard, and the other day he even posted a side-by-side shot of himself alongside a vintage shot of Richard Pryor with the caption:

    Picking up smoking cigarettes for the next few months so forgive me if I smell like an ashtray. #KidsDontTryThis#CancerSticksSuck#AnythingForTheCraft#HopeIDontGetAddicted#LeftHandChainSmoking#ActorLife#NotAGame#Ncredible
Nick also wrote:
 #TBT I’m feeling his spirit. I hope y’all ready for the next level in my career. #GameChanger#Pryor

Thing is, Nick hasn’t completely confirmed that he’s in the biopic… but something is up. In an interview with TMZ, he revealed:

 This is the thing…there’s been a lot of people out there…I never want to jinx anything because you guys know how movies work. [If] it’s not in production, it’s not real, so all I’m saying is I’m doing

the work right now. I’m doing everything I need to do to embody it when the opportunity is right. Like you guys were saying earlier, it’s something that’s been in the works for quite some time. I don’t want to look like one of those actors who’s like, ‘Oh yeah they’re doing it’ and you never see the film.
    In my mind, [I already have the part.] I’ve definitely sat with Lee [Daniels] who’s a close friend and we’ve actually worked quite a bit on getting it right so…the movie isn’t in production yet so, again, I don’t want to be one of those dudes…I want to do it the right way. When it comes to something that’s a sensitive as a legend as Richard Pryor. There’s family. There’s friends. Production. There’s so many things that go into weighing in on who should be this person and I don’t want to be out there like ‘Oh yeah I’m doing it’ and you look up and that’s not the case.
 I’m doing what I need to do. I’m growing out the hair and all of this. I’m looking like I’m 40-years-old. I’m chain-smoking. I told Lee the one thing I’m not gonna do is free base. I’m not going that far. 

Nick also stopped by Hot 97 recently, with his hair grown out in a fro, and when The Morning Show asked what was up with the new look, he hinted that it was all for a movie role:
 I’m preparing for a role so that’s why my hair is out. I think the afro pick is more of a fashion statement.

    You’re looking like Richard Pryor?

    A lot of people are saying that. That might be the look I’m going for. This is the thing, I always keep it 100 with y’all. I don’t want to get out and start bragging about this role because people have done it in the past and I don’t want to be one of those dudes to be like, “Oh this is the next thing and I’m going to do this.” I want the work to speak for itself.

    On this role being a game changer for his career
    This is a coveted role and I’m sure his estate and family take it very seriously.

    People get out there and they say I’m doing this and they haven’t talked to the family. He’s a legend; he’s one of the best so I’m trying to do everything properly. The way the movie business works, something can be in development for five years – 10 years. I actually learned this lesson when I was attached to the Arthur Ash project about six years ago. I went out there and I was at Sundance and “Oh, this is my next movie.” Because of so many moving parts you look crazy talking about something that is not shooting. So I’m not saying nothing until the movie is in production.

    Should this work out this could potentially be a career-defining role.[...]I’m just saying if I get the opportunity and that film actually happens I’m going to give it my all and do everything I can to be the best performer. 

If Nick hasn’t snagged the role just yet, he has some tough competition. Last year, Mike Epps casually revealed in an interview that he would be playing Richard Pryor, and months later, it was revealed that Marlon Wayans may be playing the part. When asked about it, Marlon told Indiewire:
You know, I don’t know what’s going on with it. Hollywood is in a weird place right now. Everyone’s scared to make movies. I think it’ll be a brilliant movie. You know, I’d never done stand-up until 2 years ago, when I did for the first time. And the reason I started doing stand-up was in preparation to play Richard Pryor. And for me – I’m a method actor – and I just wanted to become Richard Pryor, and see what the journey of a comedian was. But since the movie stalled, I don’t know when it’ll get done. But one day, I believe it will get done. So in the meantime, I’m just making sure that I’m prepared for that moment, starting with doing lots of stand-up around the country. And you know, it’s making me better, smarter, more articulate, and more calmer, and a better writer. So I’m so grateful for this journey, and believing that one day it will get done, and I want to make sure I’m prepared and ready for that moment when it comes.

Out of all three, if Richard’s kids had their way, it would be Marlon Wayans, that played their father.

Who do you think should play Richard Pryor?

Jay Z, Beyoncé And Blue Ivy Enjoy A Daddy/Mommy/Daughter Pamper Day

Hair did. Nails did. Baby Blue is getting pampered like a princess!

The Carters don’t have another “On The Run” concert until this Saturday in Philly, so during their brief holiday break, Beyoncé took to her website to share more pretty pics of herself with her little mini-me Blue Ivy.  During their time off, the mother/daughter duo spent quality time recently getting matching manis and pedis and hanging out in Brooklyn, where they visited the controversial “Sugar Baby” exhibit by artist Kara Walker.  They also wore matching dresses.  Too darn cute!

Meanwhile, ever since the public outcry over Blue Ivy’s hair being done, it seems as though Bey has been putting in the effort to keep her baby girl’s hair on point.

The pressures of being a celebrity mom in the public eye…

Catch the cute pics:

Wonderful Family thing if you ask me!!! LOL What do you think?

Michael Jackson’s Hologram Performs At The Billboard Music Awards

 King Of Pop

The power of technology…

Michael Jackson may not be physically here with us anymore, but his hologram was in full promo mode at last night’s 2014 Billboard Music Awards.

To promote his new posthumous album, Xscape, The King of Pop digitally appeared on a gold throne projected on a huge screen to perform his “new” song, “Slave To The Rhythm.”  And just like the real MJ, the hologram didn’t miss a step when it came to Michael’s signature dance moves as the digital Mike moonwalked across the stage/screen.  Eery!

Unfortunately, it wasn’t a 10/10 performance as the audio and video failed to sync at some points, but it’s still the closest thing we have to seeing Michael perform again.

Are we over the holograms in 2014 though?

Watch it below:

Couple Finally Tie The Knot After 55 years Of Dating

Damn! why all the delay lol sound cute though

 Don't blame this bride for being weak in the knees.

She’s 93 years old, and her wedding last Saturday was half a century in the making.

Elsie Kovner, who is homebound, had the nuptial of her dreams when her groom Harvey Liff walked down the aisle with a Queens judge to marry her in her Rego Park apartment.

“I always wanted to get married. Always,” said Elsie Kovner, who waited 55 years for her beau to pop the question — or at least move in with her. “After all those years, I just didn’t say anything anymore and we just kept going on dates.”

The nonagenarian newlyweds — suddenly aware that time is running out — got hitched thanks to state Sen. Toby Ann Stavisky (D-Flushing), who arranged the moving ceremony on Saturday that drew tears from even Queens Civil Court judge Sally Unger.

“I think they realized life ends and you can’t carry around a bucket list forever,” said Barbara Ostfeld, Harvey’s niece. “This is one of the happiest moments of my life. Her facial expressions were of a young woman in love.”

The couple, seated through the entire ceremony, exchanged vows and simple gold bands in front of a dozen family members before Elsie, wearing a black beaded blouse, leaned over to plant a kiss on her husband's cheek.

 "I was absolutely taken aback," Stavisky said. "Love stories don't have to be for 18-year-old kids."

"There wasn't a dry eye in the room," said Elizabeth Wu, the lawmaker’s spokeswoman. "Everyone was choking up. Even the judge got a little misty-eyed."

The Queens sweethearts swept each other off their feet in the Big Apple in the late 1950s, after relatives from both families egged the two to go on a date.

The two got off to a rocky start when Elsie, who worked as a bookkeeper, didn't hear from Harvey for days after their first date at the Mayfair Theatre in Times Square.

"I told my mom he's the same as all the jerks," said Elsie, later learning that Harvey had been hit by a car and was recovering. "The next date, he came with a bouquet of flowers."

They never needed a license to validate their love — until now.

 “I couldn’t make up my mind, and she never asked me to marry her,” said Harvey, 92, a retired furrier from Flushing who still takes advantage of every chance to make a quip even as he lovingly strokes his wife’s head. “But really, I figured it was time already.”

He waited until Valentine’s Day this year and chose a romantic dinner at home to pop the question.

“I said, ‘You gonna be my wife?’ ” he recalled. “She said ‘OK.’ ”

Now, he’s moving in with his wife in Rego Park.

“She made me happy a long time ago, and she makes me happy now,” he said. “We can enjoy the rest of our time together now.”

Angelina Jolie covers the June issue of Elle magazine also explain how she and Brad Pitt 'drive each other beautifully crazy’

 Angelina Jolie has a successful career, a loving fiancé and six beautiful children. However, the A-lister didn't always see her life turning out that way.

"I never thought I'd have children, I never thought I'd be in love, I never thought I'd meet the right person," Jolie told the June issue of Elle.

"Having come from a broken home — you kind of accept that certain things feel like a fairy tale, and you just don't look for them."

The 38-year-old actress, who stuns on Elle's cover and inside the fashion mag, continued to open up about her personal life and relationship with actor beau, Brad Pitt.

 "You get together and you're two individuals and you feel inspired by each other, you challenge each other, you complement each other, drive each other beautifully crazy," she gushed.

"After all these years, we have history — and when you have history with somebody, you're friends in such a very real, deep way that there's such a comfort, and an ease, and a deep love that comes from having been through quite a lot together."

The Hollywood stars infamously got together after co-starring and meeting on the set of 2005's "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."

The effortlessly chic brunette beauty said that while her future may have looked blurry when she was young, she learned a long time ago to live life to the fullest.

"(If) you don't experiment, or you're afraid, or you hesitate, or there are things you know you should do but you just don't get around to them, is a life that I'd be miserable living, and the only way to feel that I'm on the right path is just to be true to myself, whatever that may be, and that tends to come with stepping out of something that's maybe safe or traditional."

Jolie added that in her 20s she was “misinterpreted as wanting to be rebellious."

 “And in fact it wasn’t a need to be destructive or rebellious — it’s that need to find a full voice, to push open the walls around you," she explained.

"You want to be free. And as you start to feel that you are being corralled into a certain life, you kind of push against it. It may come out very strange, it may be interpreted wrong, but you’re trying to find out who you are.”

Next up for Jolie is her role as the villain in Disney's "Maleficent."
She goes on to chat to Elle about having daughter, Vivienne, play the role of Aurora in the picture.

"For young Aurora, they needed a child who wouldn't be fazed by the Mistress of All Evil hissing 'I don't like children' in her face. And my little Vivienne — we call her my shadow, because there's nothing I can do to shake her. I can be tired, I can be grumpy, I can be in a terrible mood, and she doesn't care. It's 'Mommy, Mommy,' and she'll cling to me," Jolie said.

"We knew that she would still do that thing, she'd still smile at me and insist that I pick her up. So we couldn't really cast anybody else."

Jolie revealed she originally asked Shiloh, her first-born biological child with Pitt, if she wanted to play the part.

"She laughed in my face. She said she'd be a horned creature. Brad and I made the decision that we wouldn't keep them from sets and the fun of making movies, but we wouldn't (glorify it either) we wouldn't make it a good thing or a bad thing," she continued on having their children enter the entertainment industry.

Although she admitted, "I would really prefer they do something else ... after two days of it, Brad and I were so stressed we never wanted to do it again."

16-Year-Old Florida Student Graduates From College…Before High School

Wow! Go On Girl!

A  16-year-old Florida whiz kid graduated from high school and college in the same week — completing college first.

“It’s kind of weird that I graduated college before high school,” Grace Bush told CBS in Miami.

Grace, who lives in Hollywood, Fla., received her degree from Florida Atlantic University on Friday with a sparkling 3.8 grade-point average. She will receive her "other" diploma on Friday from Florida Atlantic University high school.

The teen was participating in FAU's special dual-enrollment program, which gives more talented students college credit for selected high school courses.

“I started when I was 13 at Broward College, and I also took my classes throughout the summer, so I was able to finish it before four years,” she told CBS.

Grace is just following a family tradition. She is the third oldest of nine children, and her parents would like all their kids to do what Grace did to save tuition. The kids are home schooled as well.
