MTB4: I WANT YOU EXCLUSIVE

Tuesday, July 31, 2007 |

Bryan-Michael Cox and Diddy have done it again. Even though I haven’t been keeping up with Making the Band 4 like I should be (because I was watching Making the Band 3 all the time), this song is really going off to me. I love the production, and the boys, whomever they’ve chosen to be a part of the band, are actually singing! In the past couple of episodes I have seen, I haven’t really seen any boys that I really think would be great as performers. They just seemed a little watered down. But this song, I think, proved me wrong. B. Cox put it down. I’m eager to see whether or not these boys will put out an album that was as well put together as Danity Kane’s.

THE NEW MUSIC REVIEW

Tuesday, July 31, 2007 |

NOTE: Sorry about the link mix-up, guys. I updated it. It should work now.

Cassie - Is It You? (full) - download
Cassie was supposedly working on a new album due out in the fall, but this song isn’t from it. “Is It You?” is actually taken from the soundtrack for the sequel to the movie, “Step Up.” I honestly admit that I can see where this song was going, regardless of how much I hate Cassie’s lack of vocal ability. I like the feel of the track, which I’m sure was produced by her alleged boyfriend and producer, Ryan Leslie. It feels like a soundtrack song to me though.

J. Holiday - Don’t Wanna Lose (full) - download
I haven’t really been excited by the lot of J. Holiday’s music that I’ve heard besides, “Bed,” and a couple of other tracks I really like this song. It’s simple, and it just displays his vocal ability really well. I like the doo-wop direction that this song is going, and the boy really does have a set of pipes on him. I guess this has sort of revived my excitement for Back of My Lac, out October 2nd.

THE WEDDING IS STILL ON

Well all you people who were rejoicing about the Wedding being over, can sit your ass down now. LMAO! Usher told Us Magazine that the nuptials are back on. I’m really thinking about banning these two from this site. Read on:

The singer exclusively tells Usmagazine.com that it’s only a matter of time before they walk down the aisle. “As of right now we don’t have a date but we will let you know when we do.”

“Everbody’s fine. Tameka and the baby are fine,” Usher himself told Usmagazine.com on July 31, after the couple arrived via private plane in NYC (and Us got the exclusive photo!).

WHO ROCK’D IT BETTER: FAITH EVANS vs. MEAGAN GOOD

Tuesday, July 31, 2007 |

I bet you thought you would never see this dress again! LOL. We already discovered that this is one of Meagan Good’s favorite dresses to wear, but a CL reader hit us up and told us Faith Evans also rock’d it once.

Faith rock’d it back in 2004 for the EMI Post Grammy Awards Party and you already know Meagan rock’d it last weekend at David & Victoria Beckham’s party in Cali. Not to mention back in ‘03 at the Vibe Awards. Who Rock’d It Better?

RANDOM PICS: LIL KIM SUPPORTS LINDSAY | LETOYA IN HOUSTON | CELEBS @ RED EVENT

Tuesday, July 31, 2007 |

HOES SUPPORTING HOES

PHOTOS FROM: Celebrity Babylon

Kimberly Jones stopped by the Celebrity Babylon offices to give her support for actress-turned drunken coke-head, Lindsay Lohan. While holding the ‘Leave Lindsay A -Lohan’ shirt, Kim said: “Hold your head up..” and “God loves you, so do I.”

Lil Kim should be shot for even attempting to rock this shirt. Drunk Drivers get no love from me and Lindsay’s ass is no exception.

From those Dsquared2 brass knuckle boots, to those tight Leger dresses - Rihanna has matured into one of the hottest fashionistas in Hollywood today.

Her “glam rock” style has set her apart from the rest of the r&b and pop singers on the scene and according to Rihanna, this look is more her. In fact, she told CL that her new style is an expression of herself, opposed to the propped look she had when she first came out.

Learn more about Rihanna’s style here, and find out how you can cop her threads!

STAR CONFIRMS THAT SHE HAD GASTRIC BYPASS

Tuesday, July 31, 2007 |

sjonesbt.jpg

Star Jones Reynolds has avoided questions about her dramatic weight loss for years, saying only that she had undergone a medical intervention. That intervention, it turns out, was gastric bypass surgery.

Reynolds, 45, says she was “intentionally evasive” when people asked how she’d dropped 160 pounds in three years. She had gastric bypass surgery in August 2003.

She writes about her weight loss in a first-person essay in the September issue of Glamour magazine, on newsstands Aug. 7.

Everything about me was already so public (mostly my own doing — talk about dumb!), so of course everyone wanted to know what I had done. I was also terrified someone would have a tragic result after emulating me without making an informed decision with her doctor.

But the complete truth is, I was scared of what people might think of me,” she continues. “I was afraid to be vulnerable, and ashamed at not being able to get myself under control without this procedure.”

I mean all knew she had it, so this isn’t really news - but whatever. All I know is that it worked for her, because she looks great right now. She just needs to stay away from the bikini’s.
