Beyonce Tom Ford Photos

A while ago, some of you may have heard or even seen some glimpses of Beyonce modeling for Tom Ford. Well, Beyonce World posted two 'professional' pictures from the event. I must say that she looks amazing, despite the fact I am not feeling the wig of choice, although I understand what the designer and stylist was going for. What are your thoughts?

Nene Leakes Discuss Her "Breaking Point" With Husband Greg

Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Nene Leakes, has taken to Bravo TV personal blog to discuss her breaking point with her husband Greg.  She also discusses how she feels about Lawrence Washington and SheRee Whitfield talking about her behind her back on Sunday's episode. Check out what she had to say:

Sheree and Lawrence talking about me and Gregg ... it just goes to show you that there are really people in the world that want to see you fail. That whole scene with them was just phoney to me! I didn't buy it!

Gregg and I have held it together for years, but my breaking point has come. I'm one hell of a woman, and I am nobody's fool. When the person you love and trust betrays you, it has got to be one of the worst feelings. Having that moment with Gregg was so much bigger than you saw. I was really hurting! I felt Gregg was an emotionless wall that was cold with no remorse. The pain in my stomach was unreal, and my heart was heavy! I had been accused of cheating and doing Gregg wrong in the press and on blogs everywhere. I wanted to spit it all out and say some horrible things, but I wanted to handle this situation like a lady as best I could. I was hearing things like Gregg was this good guy that had done all this great stuff for me. Yes, Gregg is a good guy, but that doesn't mean Gregg is a good husband. All I can say is, I'm tired! Only I know what I've been through! My happiness and independence means everything to me, and I want to follow my heart, but I'm scared! I'm taking baby steps, but I hope I've been brave enough for all the women that couldn't! I hope I was able to show my children what a strong woman looks like and stands for! I will only accept loyalty and trust! My happiness is everything to me!

Keep me in your prayers, and thank you for all the love and support during this really trying time for me! 

Love,

LaurieAnn Gibson Discusses The Thought Behind Keri Hilson's "The Way You Love Me" Video

This weekend, Keri Hilson's uncut version of the video for the new single "The Way You Love Me". The sexually charged video, garnered all types of negative and disappointed comments from fans and critics alike.  I must admit when I saw the video, I was a little taken back myself. The image that I thought I had of Keri Hilson was instantly tarnished.

While Keri and her record label agreed to this video, it seems that the creative direction and 'blame' for the video may not totally be hers.  Recently, Necole Bitchie caught up with Celebrity Choreographer, LaurieAnn Gibson, who made her Directorial Debut conceptualizing this video. During their chat session, LaurieAnn revealed her concept of the video, how the video collaboration came about, and her thoughts on black women taking control of their power and sexuality.  Check out the interview, below:

Necole Bitchie: Keri Hilson’s new video is going crazy on the internet. Everyone is talking about it. For people who may not have seen the video yet, could you tell us a little bit about the concept of the video?

LaurieAnn: We didn’t expect the dirty version to leak. It is a story about a love affair. Keri is a bounty hunter and the person that she has to bring in is her love, her baby daddy, Columbus Short, who’s an actor who started out as a dancer. So she has like this ultimate decision to make that I feel like a lot of black women are faced with; Is he the right guy? Is he good enough? I love him. Listen, we are up against a lot of odds, we gotta support our black man against those odds. Do I turn him in? Do I honor my love and risk it all? So that’s basically what the concept of the video is. There’s a ‘to be continued’ so it’s going to be interesting. I’m actually going to take you back to the beginning of when they first met so it will make sense when it’s finished.
Necole Bitchie : I can imagine that you were under a lot of pressure especially for this video to be your directorial debut
LaurieAnn: Well the thing is I’ve been choreographing and then creative directing with a lot of Lady Gaga stuff. You know as a choreographer you basically direct movement so you’re in the trenches learning about directing for years. When Keri was like, “Lauri Ann, Polow has this record…I’m not sure about it”. I said “Keri, let me direct a lifestyle video. The thing is, the beat is so driving and it doesn’t have to necessarily be the full part of you. It can be a character or another side. How can we pull a record that Polow loves and not offend your fans?” I suggested we make a mini movie. So that’s how it started out and it was really innocent and because it was my directorial debut I didn’t have a lot of money. The label was looking at me with one eye open. A lot of people don’t understand that Keri’s really capable and really talented and a lot of the other females may not see her as a competitor. But legitimately she has a voice, she has an opinion…she has a passion. So I was like “Keri, if I could let you feel this comfortable you need to fight for your spot, fight for your right to go after what you really want.” So we just started and that’s how the collaborations started.


Necole Bitchie: My first thought when I saw the video was “men are going to love this, women are going to hate on it”. I looked on twitter and the men were going crazy, the women not so much. I have never seen Keri dance that hard though. Do you feel like this video can propel her into “a competing state” and open people’s eyes to “Keri has arrived”?


LaurieAnn: Absolutely Necole because I think the bar and the level is set. You have to risk it all in order to be number one and you know how we feel about Beyonce, she works non-stop. She’s in it giving you options, performing at a level that’s not comfortable. The thing is, Keri can go there, so it’s like she’s making them feel uncomfortable. It’s a risk she had to take. As a black woman it is a little bit uncomfortable but what we are saying is we get to this place sexually where we want to feel like we’re that sexy, we’re that fly and why not? I mean white girls get behind us, I mean I love you Kim Kardashian but enough! Black girls are fly, you know what I’m saying? We’re beat, we’re the reason for the season and we need to embrace it! It’s a little uncomfortable because they kindly, politely put us in our position. Black women stand up and take back what their tying to snatch from us behind closed doors.


Necole Bitchie: You brought up an interesting point because as black women, sometimes we are boxed in when it comes to our sexuality. We get backlash for suggestive photos or showing our bodies in a way that is totally acceptable when women of other races do it. It’s “sexy” when they do it. It’s “raunchy” when we do it. For example, I know it’s someone that you work with a lot too, Lady Gaga has all these amazing pictures that show off her body and it’s looked at as art but if those type of photos were done by an urban artist, they would get backlash.


LaurieAnn: You’re right Necole, your absolutely right. I find an excitement about what I’ve done with Gaga from finding her three and a half years ago without anybody. It’s also bitter sweet because it wasn’t a black girl. I’m not mad, I’m just saying but you’re absolutely right there’s complete facts to that and even with Kim Kardashian, we’re not judging you but had a black woman done a sex tape we would’ve been finished for life.


Necole Bitchie: There wouldn’t be any endorsements…


LaurieAnn: Sell a shoe? Please! Just saying this is reality and instead of beating us down it’s a celebratory thing. It’s a yes Keri, okay we get it, it’s a record that Polow gave you and we had to interpret it. So we did it in the form of film and creativity. But she looks amazing, she’s strong, she chooses her man..it’s to be continued. Give her the time to let it unfold, to embrace this level and see what she comes with before you count her out so quickly.


Necole Bitchie: When you were presenting your ideas to Keri for this video, were there reservations on her end?


LaurieAnn: She did have reservations; it was a mixture of both. She loved the freedom and the protection that I gave her as the director. I was like “you’re screaming to prove you are a competitor in the ring…that Keri can sing, dance and act”. I didn’t make the record. I’m just delivering the record. There’s no way around, “Love me, Love me, it’s the way you love me, thug me.” I didn’t want to make it mine. So creatively I wanted to elevate you and challenge you to really break the front wall. I was like we gotta get Ricky on there, Faith came in, Dawn, Jojo..it was really a loving set and everyone had fun. She was a little bit like “Yikes!” I was like “You have the ability, so you want to be fearless and in your face on this. Promote the idea there should be no judgment and really stand for something or fall for anything.”


Necole Bitchie: Most artists get to a certain point in their career were they have to take risks. Sometimes they have to shut out all of the noise…what critics are going to say and just go for it. That’s when most artists reach their full potential.


LaurieAnn: She listens to the record company, she listens to the kids..she listens and sometimes they let her down. It wasn’t so literally, it was a break out on many levels.
And we’re not saying that this is for her younger fans by no way! Trust me I wish the dirty version didn’t get leaked because for my brand as well it’s a little uncomfortable. But it is based on the dance, it’s no one bumping and grinding, no one slapping her butt, she’s dancing to her full potential. Beyonce does a lot of sexual hip rolls so it’s just unexpected but it’s not without a particular artistic approach. For my young black girls, it is a video, it is a stretch. She is acting…she doesn’t stray from going to school…stay committed…believe in your dreams…trust God..be loyal. These are things that we live by. These are things I live by but there’s the other human side that’s like “We are the baddest bitches in the game.”

Miami Heat Players Crying Like Babies Blaming Coach For Their Losses


ESPN has reported that the Miami Heat players are frustrated with coach Erik Spoelstra and are questioning whether he is fit to coach the team.

According to the report, sources said that the players think Spoelstra “is not letting them be themselves” and “that they are questioning his offensive strategies.” The Heat coach reportedly called out LeBron James during a recent practice in front of the team, telling him to get more serious.

In the third quarter of Miami’s 106-95 loss to Dallas on Nov. 27, James bumped Spoelstra during a timeout. The 40-year-old coach downplayed the incident, reportedly saying he didn’t notice the bump until he was told about it after the game. Miami has lost four of their last five games and are 9-8 overall.

Bishop Eddie Long Has Upset Readers of Gospel Today

It seems that Eddie wanting to settle outside of court, has raised more eyebrows than mine.  Eddie Long, pastor of Georgia-based Megachurch, New Birth Missionary Church is featured on the Dec/Jan cover of Gospel Today magazine.  The article downplays the allegations that have been publicly and legally made against the Senior Pastor, and this has upset many of the magazine's readers.
The Nov/Dec issue of faith-based glossy Gospel Today is catching flack from some of its subscribers who take issue with Bishop Eddie Long being featured on its cover.
With a headline that reads: “Bishop Eddie Long At The Center of The Scandal That Rocked The Church World;” the magazine is being accused of downplaying the allegations against the pastor of the New Birth Missionary Church in Lithonia, Georgia, who was accused in Sept. of sexual coercion by four consenting-age men from his church.
Additionally, some readers believe that Gospel Today lacks objectivity as Long serves as the chair of the magazine’s board.
One unedited subscriber note read: “I got my latest issue of Gospel Today; with [Bishop] Eddie Long on the cover. I read the article and said to myself hmmmm seem like some sugar coating going on. Turned back to the 1st page and saw where the Bishop of his Church in NC is on your Board of Directors, I looked down and also saw that Eddie Long is on your Board of Advisors, I said all of that to say this. The best thing your magazine should have did was to not comment, but I do understand why you did. God is not pleased with all of the hypocrisy going on with these leaders and the things people will say and print just for MONEY!!!!”

Kim Zolciak Pregnant, Now Engaged???

Kim Zolciak and Fiance Kroy Bierman
Kim Zolciak is engaged to Atlanta Falcons star Kroy Biermann, the father of her unborn child, Radaronline.com is reporting.

A source told RadarOnline.com: “Kim and Kroy are engaged, and only a few people know about it.
They wanted to announce it in a national magazine, but Kim was so excited that she told a couple of close friends about it. Obviously, they are both really happy about both the baby and their engagement and cannot wait to start their new lifes together. Kroy proposed to her and bought her a substantial ring which she has shown to a few friends, although she is not wearing it in public yet. Kim is actually in her second trimester with her pregnancy now, and the couple are still in talks about getting their own spin-off reality show. And if this does not happen then she will want to re-negotiate her terms on The Real Housewives Of Atlanta if her wedding and new baby were to be featured on the show. The other cast members are publicly backing Kim and Kroy but privately there are some jealousies because Kim is very much in the spotlight right now and not everyone is happy about that.
 Kim and Kroy confirmed their pregnancy last week in an interview with Life & Style Magazine. Check out the Life & Stlye Magazine interview here.

Ghettofabness: Tameka Raymond Is Mad At Kandi Burrus...Wow, really?

Kandi advised that she wouldn't mind taking Usher for a test drive in the bedroom.  Well, some random person took upon herself to tweet Usher's ex wife, Tameka Foster Raymond about the conversation, and that started a twitter rant that ended with Tameka telling Kandi to come see her or call her on the telephone.  Really?  Reall tho', Tameka?  You hood like that???  Tameka did not even have to respond to Oneka Cross, it is not that deep.

Rihanna British GQ Cover and Spread Photos & Interview Excerpts

British GQ January 2011 Cover - Rihanna
British Rihanna Blog has posted the first look at Rihanna's January British GQ Magazine cover and excerpts from the interview, where she stated she's tired of being asked about her relationship with Chris Brown. But before she asked everyone to quit asking her, she had to remind us how she was a victim, repeating past behaviors, and that she triumphed and is now a role model for 'young girls'. ***deep sigh***  Check out a few of the excerpts below:

Sometimes when you’re on the inside of a relationship like that, you can’t see it clearly for what it is. “I left – it was the best feeling. It was so freeing.  I witnessed it happening to my mum and I said I would never let that happen to me – and then it was happening. “Now, when I look back, it bugs me out that I couldn’t see it for what it was.  Before that, I was just a little girl from the island, singing pop music. It was easy to think I didn’t have a problem in the world. Then all of a sudden, boom! Everybody realises that I do have problems.  It made me strong. It’s a moment in my life I wish would disappear.  In my head, it’s gone.  I have too much pride, I’d never let anyone see me cry. I don’t want you to remember me for that.
  A fan asked her on twitter, why won't she stop talking about the incident, and she responded:

People won’t stop asking about it! It’s f-ckin’ annoying! Nobody wants to relive that, but some people can’t respect that! I get it, they wanna raise awareness to young girls! But it ends up just making me look bitter, pitiful, spiteful and angry!
 What are your thoughts?  Am I the only person sick of hearing about it?
