“I want to thank everyone that came to our baby shower! We love all of you and are so grateful to share this experience w/ u! Xxoo,” Kim wrote via Twitter. Friends and relatives of the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star gathered together Sunday to help Kim and Kory Biermann celebrate their new baby. Co-stars Kandi Burruss and Phaedra Parks were present, and of course, Sweetie Hughes was there to assist her friend and employer.  Not surprisingly, there was no sign of frenemy NeNe Leakes.

"The cake was off-the chain with different layers of chocolate. Everything was gorgeous. They had a slide show and the photos of Kroy and Kim are just beautiful," said Jamie, who added that Lawrence Washington's heels were higher than his BFF Sheree Whitfield's.

When asked about the dominate blue color of the shower decorations, Kim confirmed the sex of the child via Twitter. “Yes, lots of blue! We are expecting a boy!!” she wrote.
 The sex of the child shouldn't be too much of a surprise, since Kim's psychic predicted as much.
 No word yet on whether a name has been selected. Kim already has two daughters. This will be her first boy.

Movie Time !

Taraji P. Henson is taking her acting chops to the golf course. The actress will be starring in an upcoming movie entitled From The Rough, a film based on the true story of Catana Starks, a former swim coach at Tennessee State University who became the first woman ever to coach a college men's golf team.
Now, this is the second time I would say we've seen Ms. Henson taking on a more serious approach in the film industry, if you remember her movie on Lifetime TV.


Summary: The golf coach played by Ms. Henson is tasked with building Tennessee State's first golf team and finding only one available African American golfer  Craig (played by Robert Bailey Jr.). Catana opened up the HBCU’s roster to underprivileged kids from other countries like France, Austrailia, Hong Kong and the UK. The film also features Michael Clarke Duncan, LeToya Luckett, Henry Simmons and Robert Bailey Jr.

UNICEF Celebrity Tap Project





The UNICEF Tap Project wants everyone to recognize the lifesaving importance of water. Celebrities who have joined our cause are even donating samples of their own tap water to help raise awareness of the world water crisis. Celebrities, have endoresed this campaign such as Rihanna & Selena Gomez.


They have added their name to Unicef’s tap water project, which urges restaurant owners to ask diners to pay $1 for tap water they would usually receive for free.
In one of the advertising posters highlighting the scheme, Rihanna poses next to a bottle of her personalised drink with the words: ‘Rihanna Tap Water. Not your typical tap water, unless of course, you live next door to Rihanna.’

New Artist Of The Week !


I so LOVE being introduced to new music and new artist. This weeks new artist is Gail Scott and her first single is "Jack N Jill". I was up late one night on concreteloop.com  they had posted Jill Scott's song "Jack N Jill". I listened, I liked and an idea for a new post was born. She was the one who told me she is associated with singer Tokyo Diiva (Bad Girls Club theme song) and Unique. Before I began working on this post I had to educate myself of course. From my research I learned that Gail Scott is also known as Scotty. She is 19 years old and she is a native of the Bronx, New York. She is signed to JeepBoyz Entertainment, Universal Motown and her debut album Tuff is expected to be dropping this summer. I also took it upon myself to check out her youtube channel, she is a really great vocalist. Not only that but she is one of those artist who has her own style and I really do admire her style.

Check out her youtube page.  http://www.youtube.com/user/iamGailScott

A Good Cause


    

Using her celebrity status for a good cause, musician Keri Hilson teamed up with fashion retailer H&M and have joined their Fashion Against AIDS campaign. The campaign includes a unisex clothing line which 25% of all sales will go to the Designers Against AIDS charity.  


The only basketball love connection that could be made with Trina was her relationship with Nuggets player Kenyon Martin. Hold your tongue before you judge her validity of being a cast member... Evelyn never walked down the aisle, Royce is just a baby momma and Jen is on the first train to divorce court.... In all honesty, would you watch her show?


Last summer she shot her own reality show that was pitched to VH1 and is said to be appearing on Lala's show coming this summer.


A Family Affair

Guess she thought it was time for change. There will not be a 3rd season of Tiny & Toya...Toya decided to try something different, and make a new name for herself. We all know her as Toya Carter, (one of many) babymama to Lil Wayne. But not only is she that, she is his ex-wife, a mother, also an entrepuerneur, also an author. You rememeber on the 2nd season of Tiny & Toya, she mentioned writing a book, and it also showed scences of her goig through that process, well guess what.....it happened.


Description:
On her hit television show ′Tiny and Toya′, Antonia ′Toya′ Carter seems to be living the good life: she has a beautiful home, good friends, and is pursuing her dreams in fashion design. But hers has been a life of peaks and valleys. Abandoned by her parents as a child, she was passed from family member to family member as her mother sank deeper into her drug addiction. Feeling unloved and unwelcomed, Toya fell into the arms of a 15-year-old rising musical star-Dwayne Michael Carter, known these days as the rapper ′Lil Wayne′-- and ended up pregnant at the tender age of 14.

In Letters to My Younger Self, Toya takes the reader through the pain of being a teenage mother struggling to raise a child while still a child herself-without the benefit of the guidance of her own mother. Using the words she recorded in the journals she kept as a teen-and the wisdom she has gained in the years since-Toya bares her own struggles, using them to offer young women real and heartfelt understanding and advice about sex, relationships, motherhood and growing up.

True ?


There is an interesting rumor making its rounds. Word on the streets s that rapper Lil Wayne and his dad/partner Baby have SIGNED pop sensation Justin Bieber.

Justin was signed with Island Records. Lil Wayne's label Young Money is under Universal.

If Lil Wayne pulled this off . . . he would past Jay Z and become the best rapper/music mogul in the game today.

Braxton Family Values



Join Toni – “The Superstar”, Traci – “The Underdog,” Towanda – “Mrs. Congeniality,” Trina – “The Wildcard,” Tamar – “Baby” and their headstrong mother Evelyn – “The Force,” as they yell, cry and harmonize their way across the Braxton family stage.
These tight-knit sisters are not afraid to reveal the intricacies of their sisterhood as they battle it out for the spotlight with sibling rivalry, man drama, bankruptcy, a DUI and much more.  See if their sisterly bond can withstand the trials and tribulations of life in the fab lane.
Like their famous sister Toni Braxton, Traci, Towanda, Trina and Tamar were all blessed with the gift of song and shared that gift as a group called “The Braxtons,” managed by their mom Evelyn.
Fast forward a few years, and Toni Braxton is a mega-star with hit song after hit song and too many accolades to count; Traci has an unexpected pregnancy; Towanda decides to pursue acting; Trina becomes back-up for Toni and a “wedding singer;” and Tamar strikes out on her own to chase her rising star.  Mom Evelyn also experienced change when she divorced the love of her life, the girls’ father, for his chronic philandering. With their worlds turned upside-down, and the meteoric rise of Toni’s fame, the family had to dramatically adjust to life after stardom.
Toni Braxton is now fighting her way back to the top.  After battling debilitating illnesses that left her out of the spotlight, she’s looking to regain her status in the industry.  She enlists the help of her sisters, but the drama they bring proves to be too much at times.  As Traci dreams of rejoining her famous sister on stage as a background singer, Tamar wants nothing to do with the background.  She wants to be front and center and isn’t afraid to let everyone know that “doo-whoppin” for Toni is not what she needs.  Towanda wants nothing more than to escape life as Toni’s assistant, but Toni doesn’t seem ready to give her up and shuns any new assistant that she gets.  Trina wants to be respected for her choices as a musician, even if that includes performing with a cover-band, but her sisters can’t believe that makes her happy and make fun of her for it.
As if the sibling drama weren’t enough, the sisters have to deal with turmoil erupting in their personal lives.  From Toni’s bankruptcy problems and Traci’s possessive husband to Towanda’s lackadaisical marriage, Trina’s problem drinking and Tamar’s misdirected issues with everyone – the trouble never ends with this bunch.  Yet through it all, they’ll have each other’s back and prove that even though they fight hard, they love harder.  BRAXTON FAMILY VALUES will unveil the realities of sisterhood and dispel the myth that money solves everything.
