I HEARDDD SOME CRAZY RUMORS ABOUT JAY IN AFRICA!!! im so tired of all those artist who came in africa ( but only in south africa, or nigeria) and dont raise money for this poor country by doing enuf chartity concert. i mean i dont blame them i just regret it
Mary is looking good…
for all you STILL commenting on the hair, obviously she is JUST FINE ‘cuz she aint changed sh$t…
Naomi and Tyson took a good pic…still working after all these years…DAMN that’s a bad chick
Everyone looking good. And Usher whew! I tell you…scrumptious.
*^^^^Everyone’s**
Chris is not aging well!
The concert looked like it was fun. All Big names doing their thing.
I must be blind, cuz I dont see a damn thing wrong with Ushers abs. Not in the least. lol
Love Jay Z
Rihanna is prety muc killing the fab department right now. Kudos to her stylist! And I really enjoy her C.D especially Rehab, Disturbia, Breakin dishes
pretty much*
She looks SO beautiful. I saw her personals ID on wealthy men for beautiful women site “”"”M e e t i n g W e a l t h y.c o m”"”"”" last week. It is said she is datiing young billionaire on that site. Is she singlle now?
????????????????????????????????????
I have a wig like Mary’s but I just wear it out of pure laziness and convenience (cuz I’m growing my hair out). Anytime someone tells me my hair looks nice, I wanna take off my wig and slap ‘em with it… cuz that *ish is not cute. Not even on me! lol! But Mary can do whatever the hell she wants. That’s my girl and she’s FLY regardless.

um, Chris Brown put your shirt back on
looks like a great concert!
Jay let her do Umbrella then he launched into his rap from Beyonce’s Crazy In Love – gotta give the missus some shine – NICE.
Looks like it was great concert.
I do not like what Mary has on, the jumper and the boots, just don’t go well together, IMO
looks like good times, and it was for a good cause
go robyn (rihanna) she looks good i like her, i wonder if mary is ever gonna change her hair i love her though, and i’m not mad at naomi for sitting next to tyson like that i love some naomi bad attitude and all…i looks like fun….
GETTING REALLY TIRED OF RIRI AND CHRIS BROWN!!!!!!!!!!!
Wasnt Jay just in Switzerland??? Freakin globetrotter…lol love him.. Rihanna looks darling…and so does everyone else… But the main issue is that these celebs are using their talent for an outstanding cause… I hope that that is their motive, and not anything else… rock on black folks… love yall
Fund raising in Africa….Hell we need fund raising here. We need some funds raising for GAS PRICES or bring that price back down less than a $1 like it was 10yrs ago. Usher, awww poor thing he’s losing his image slowly…Tyson and Niaomi is just a front i know they are not dating or Could they be? (Let say “Lesbians”…….LOL)…..Go Rihana and Jay just don’t let Beyonce do a Fly-by shooting…LOL…..Chris Brown do you buddy just keep an eye on Jay….LOL
Tianna, this post is missing some info: WHERE and WHY? LOL!!! I’m being sarcastic…but please remember the 5 Ws of journalism..even for blogs!!!! And aren’t you a comm major..shame on you
sorry…this post is missing WHERE and WHEN…not “WHY”…you did mention the cause.!!!!
IT SEEMS LIKE WHATEVER RIHANNA DOES, CHRIS DOES OR VICE VERSA. LIKE THEY BOTH PERFORMED AT THE BET AWARDS, ESSENCE FESTIVAL, VMAS LAST YEAR, AND NOW THIS. CONCIDENCE OR DO THEY JUST WANT TO BE TOGETHER ALL THE TIME?
Go Rih Rih…..she definatly doing her thing right now, and her CD is the bizness
Miss Campbell looks great
CB….ugh!! cant stand him
I saw Chris Brown’s hoodie at Urban Outfitters. I wanted to get it but it looked like something that everybody would get.
I hope Mary had some powder in the bottoms of them damn boots! Cause I know that it was hot than a mofo in Nigeria! Looks like fun times in the motherland!
Sounds and looks like a very positive and fun event.I wish I was there to see all the performers but it looks like Chris Brown and RiRi’s memo is-WHEREVER I GO,SHE GOES.WHEREVER I GO,HE GOES…I’m not hating but handle your scandle bust it babies.
I wish Mary J would retire that damn blonde wig! Has me soo angry!
Naomi doesn’t look very photogenic in that pic w/ Tyson. Not a good look for an international super model.
Is Rihanna still performing “Umbrella”, cause I’m assuming that’s why Jay was on stage w/ her. This is so sad. She’s rereleasing an album that only had one major international hit. SMH.
Chris looks comfy
I wish I could’ve been there. I wonder who was better in concert Chris Breezy or Usher? Hmmm…
Agree with 29 & 30… this is just half-assed journalism… not a good look!
Tyson and Naomi would make a bad ass couple… if they would stop messing with ugly ass you know who
RI sucks cos nobody knows her songs except for umbrella
(she had 1 more crap album after that)
Mary THAT WIG belongs to COMB`s mom
Usher- No more Fans c`mon you went Diamond teh last time i checked
now you are fucking with girls that Look like man
Jay-z who cares you are so 1969
That nigga and that violent bitch would make hot kids
How come Jayz only smiles in the presence of other women, any woman besides Beyonce? They are two weird birds if you ask me. It aint that much privacy in the word to hide feelings….Even on stage they are serious, but look how he’s lookin at Rhi, like yeah, you got it baby…lol…when beyonce be on stage with him, he be looking serious as hell like bitch don’t mess up. Weird!
And will someone tell that 40 year old negro to stop flashing that whack ass roc sign…it’s so old and played, just like his ass. Old men trying to hold onto their youth is so pathetic and sad….dress your age nooka!
Naomi and Tyson make a beautiful couple…if they had babies, oh my goodness, gorgeous.
Usher, sit your ass down, your time is over, I think your album sales told you so…peace out negro.
Mary look like she killin it as usual.
Oh, Rihanna looks hot! I love what she’s wearing! Even her makeup is killer!
And, I’m still trying to get how Chris Brown is competition for Usher. Now, Neyo is because his music is more sophisticated but Chris…Chris?
Nigeria needs help…i bet you you the only people at the concert were the wealthy government officials and their kids and family…just to say the rich people…
Looks like everybody had a good time at the concert.
It’s nice to see celebirties helping the people in Africa.
Nice line up! I know Mary ripped it ! ! !
@ 41
Look at Upgrade U from the B’Day DVD or the Crazy in Love performance from Fade to Black and you’ll see just how very wrong you are. And how you say that he never smiles/looks happy with Bey or vice versa? SERIOUSLY!? There ain’t enough pics on the internet of them smiling in each others presence for you or something? Please stay outta these celebs personal biz becase you CLEARLY don’t know what you’re talking about! How would you feel if you constantly had people flashing camera lights in your face and trying to get pics of you two doing something intimate so they can exploit your love into dollars and cents? That shit can’t be easy…
I was surprised to read her blog on ” C a s u a l S e e k . C o m ” I don’t understand why she write blog on a dating site for casual encounter. Does she feel lonely and want to date with someone?
@41 I bet your whack ass is always throwin up the Rock sign in hopes that you can be a cool!! Whatever you people say, remember this, JayZ is the wealthiest hiphop artist in the game, end of story, whether you like him or not he really won’t give a damn, so stop hatin!!
I love Mary J. jumpsuit, sans the boots though, and really not feeling Rhi, Rhi’s dress or the hair color, but do your thing Bajan Mama!!! Usher, boo!!! Everybody else is cool!!! What the hell is up with Naomi’s wig these days????
Jscene=Pixie=Rihanna stan=wack
@48 I agree. She probably got a Jay and B shrine she meditates to while wearing Rocawear and throwing up the Roc!
Anyway Jigga is and will always be the ish! I see you Mary. Loves Usher and Chris
That is all
LMAO @ “That nigga and that violent bitch would make hot kids”
# 41 Sound like Jigga nutt in her face and dismissed her or something
Sorry CL, but you’re WAY LATE with this!
yeah
RIHANNA IS SO PRETTY!!..JAY-Z IS THE BESTTTTT OF ALL TYME
CHRIS BROWN I LOVE OMG HE LOOK DAMN GOOD.ALWAYS LOVED USHER
#49 what?! Did you figure that because my comment appeared directly under hers? How super stupid…I hope you don’t mistake me for mischa from d a t e h i m d o t c o m and get me banned or something because my name appears after those annoying bots all the time (I hope this joke doesn’t get me banned…all my comments went into moderation once before!!)!! lol uhhh you’re wrong, kid. The other person is an entirely different entity.
I am so glad these artist recognize we are more then famine and disease. BLACK PEOPLE UNITE. I am proud!!! We are the EMERGING NEW AFRICA, WHETHER ON THE CONTINENT OR AROUND THE WORLD.
The magazine WEALTHY GOSSIP reported that woman is seeking rich men on S u g a r mingle.c om these days. On that site, there are some of her hot pictures and the wordings show he needs sugar daddy in a hurry. But she said it is an absolutely slur and she are requiring the apologize from the magazine!
beautiful woman.. is she still stay with her husband.. someone posted on yahoo answers that she has a profile on the famous site !!!.sugarmingle . c o m. you know it is a bad site for rich men to seek sexy girls.
JSCENE said “but look how he’s lookin at Rhi, like yeah, you got it baby…lol…when beyonce be on stage with him, he be looking serious as hell like bitch don’t mess up. Weird!”
—————————————————————————
LMAO! You have the Jayonce stans in an uproar.
That statement is somewhat true. I’ve never seen him cheesing on stage with Bey. But then again, Im not a follower so I dont watch every single one of their performances. He probably wants to maintain his swag and not look p***y whipped, even though he is. He actually does dress like a grown man, only after he started dating Bey. He dons suites when the occasion calls for one. That’s what her song Upgrade U was about.
@46, 48, and 49
POINT BLANK, KISS MY ASS, I DON’T SEE WHAT YOU SEE, AND NEVER WILL, DEAL WITH IT!…. I SAID IT, WILL SAY IT AGAIN WHEN THEIR ASSES IS POSTED UP ON HERE, AND WILL TILL THE END OF DAYS, THEM BITCHES ACT WEIRD AROUND EACH OTHER…..SO YOU STAN ON!
MUTHAFUCKAS KILL ME TELLING YOU WHAT THE FUCK YOU SEE…..CYBER FIGHT WITH YOU, NOT!
anybody who thinks jay never smiles around bey is dumb as fuck.
#58 and #59 just go kill ya selves.
