2012 may turn out to be a pretty good year for concert/festival goers and fans of Beyonce, rap duo Kanye West and Jay-Z and songbirds Brandy and Monica.
To kick things off, word on the street is that Beyonce may be a headline act for this year’s Lollapalooza festival in Chicago, Illinois. According to an anonymous insider’s Lollapalooza twitter account, @LollaLeaks, Beyonce has been included in the major line-up alongside artists like Metallica and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Not too sure how legit this account is, but hey, Lollapalooza isn’t until August 3rd-5th. That’s enough time for Blue’s mommy to get back in business, right? Continue

Singer/actress Brandy and her brother Ray J pictured above at the 4th Annual Ne-Yo And Compound Pre-GRAMMY Midnight Brunch in Los Angeles on Saturday (February 11).
Ray J, who was looking very somber at the festive event was pictured trying to reach his close friend Whitney Houston at her hotel earlier in the day, only to be turned away (VIEW PHOTO) . As reports of her death began to trickle through media outlets, many of Whitney’s friends and family rushed to the hotel to see if it was true. For the past couple of years Ray and Whitney have been rumored to be a couple, but both denied this.
In related news, it was Brandy’s 33rd birthday and they were seen with sparklers throughout the night at the event.

Brandy attended the premiere of the Michael Jackson ‘The Immortal’ World Tour decked out in her finest spring gear, including a $1,300 sheer silk blouse from Burberry. Featuring leather epaulettes, the shirt’s high-end price tag probably has something to do with the hand-threaded wood beads found at its shoulder.
Burberry offers a lower priced epaulette detailed shirt sans the silk, and sans the wooden beads for $275. Or try this even better priced $40 convertible military pocket shirt from Express.
Actress Meagan Good premiered her new film Dysfunctional Friends, and she brought the glam factor to the event catching all eyes in a red jersey BCBG dress. The long sleeved, v-neck frock featured figure flattering draping at the hips, and a keyhole opening at the back. It’s a perfect date night ensemble, cocktail dress, or party look.
Get Meagan’s dress from Felice Fabric for $138, or get the same look with this $80 Lauren by Ralph Lauren dress available at Dillard’s.
