TV BIT: BRANDY & RAY J’S NEW VH1 SERIES “FAMILY BUSINESS”

After 2 successful seasons of “For The Love of Ray J”, singer/TV personality, Ray J is back with a new series on VH1 and this time he is bringing the whole family along. Check out the synopsis:

Siblings Brandy and Ray J Norwood are famous for their incredible vocal talent on the stage and screen. But they wouldn’t be anywhere without the support and guidance of their parents – entertainment manager and mom, Sonja and talented musical father, Willie Norwood. Viewers will get a first hand glimpse into the lives of the Norwood family unit and their family business – Rn’B Productions. Run by Sonja, Rn’B Productions features an impressive roster of musical artists including Brandy, Ray J and their father Willie, who also serves as the company’s vocal coach. But with Sonja ready to take a step down, Brandy and Ray J will have to fill her shoes quickly all the while taking the family business to the next level. Will they have what it takes to continue to stay in the limelight while growing an entertainment empire?

And don’t worry if you didn’t read all of that. I was distracted by Brandy’s eyebrows as well. Overall it’s a nice family portrait though. If you’re interested, the show premieres on VH1 Sunday, April 11 at 9.

My first memory of fragrance is my mother,” she explained. “And as a very young girl, hearing her footsteps…her stilettos click, click, clicking on the hardwood floor and she wore a beautiful fragrance and she would walk past me and it would just stay in the room. It left a warm feeling every time I thought about her scent.” [ READ MORE ]

FASHION: KANYE’S GIVENCHY EMBROIDERED CHECK SHIRT / BEYONCE’S JEWELED HEELS

A lot of people sent in emails about the shirt Kanye West rock’d earlier this week while recording the “We Are The World” remake in California. Well it’s straight off the runway from the Spring/Summer 2010 menswear line from Givenchy. No word on the price, but the Check/Plaid shirt is pretty dope.

Another email we keep getting is about Beyonce’s heels during the 52nd Grammy Awards. She was rocking some Giuseppe Zanotti Bejeweled/Embroidered Heels. They can run you from $500-$1500. You already know what dress she is rocking since we did a ‘Who Rock’d It Better’ between her and Rihanna.
