TUESDAY R&B GOODNESS!!!

Huh? Can someone actually confirm this? According to Janet-Xone, Janet Jackson's latest release "20 Y.O." is up for a Grammy Award. So if this is true, you know Beyonce's B'Day will be up there too. And well, you all know what Matthew Knowles is like when he wants his daughter to have something. Give him a burger and he'll toss it up in your face, and tell your ass to go get him some mean steak instead. He'll probably bribe the Grammy Board Directors. "Let Beyonce win and she will treat you all to a private lap dance". Hell, he isn't called Pimp Daddy Knowles for no reason you know. Everything Matthew does always comes at the expense of his daughter and in a lot of circumstances she has to pay tremendously (example: the huge barrage of hate she received due to the Letoya/Latavia situation). Beware. Matthew Knowles is plotting a boycott right now as we speak.

Anyway surprise! No more Mel B updates, since all last week I've been all over it but I had to because I know a lot of pregnant women who cruelly got dumped by their partners (my mama being one of them, with me) which is just straight up disgusting, unless she was treating the man like dirt which certainly wasn't the case with the Mel B and Eddie Murphy situation. ALL dogs need to be called out so being a feminist and a degree holder of the sociological perspective, of course I am going to bring the situation to light. I just cannot stand that man right now. Well anyway, let's get to the goss. We may have a new couple in town:

Rapper the Game is in love with Irish pop beauty Samantha Mumba. Well, okay that's pushing it. Romantically, he thought she was a groupie when they first met at Dublin's Olympia Theatre last Tuesday. The news of their pairing was brought to light by MTV UK's Tim Kash who met up with the Game last week and uncovered his love for the Irish hottie. The Game admitted to bringing a "beautiful girl" back from Ireland, and said he would "make her my girlfriend." Kash asked who the girl was, The Game wouldn't say. Kash asked if he could say, The Game said "maybe." Kash said "Samba Mumba?" The Game said "Beautiful girl. I love what she does and her accent, it just kills me. She's crazy, crazy beautiful." He even approached Samantha's younger brother 17-year-old Omero to put in a good word for him. The signs were good though, as Sam didn't originally intend on going to his gig but she DID turn up leaving The Game "star struck" when he saw her! "I was like 'Yo! That's Samantha Mumba, man.' he says "I walked 20 steps in front of her and I was like 'Damn! I just bombed that,' you know. So next time I had seen it, I kinda fixed it."

OK, so they're not officially dating YET ... but he is smitten. Wasn't his ass smitten with R&B beauty Mya? So much that he ogled her King pictures and had her make a cameo in his Dreams video? And they DID briefly date by the way, he admitted to it and I even addressed it some weeks ago. Hmm ... Anyway I thought Samantha was dating Charles Porter, and besides, Sam has nasty taste in men. She's beautiful but yet she settles for DL men like Sisqo and that unattractive Jagged Edge twin Brandon. But the Game, whilst he isn't ugly (or gorgeous for that matter) he shole is a step-up from those two I must admit. He is hardcore and rugged and to me that's sexy. Wind it forward. Gwen Stefani was seen out and about once again in that weird hairdo:

Christina Aguilera performs Hurt on Wetten Dass show in Germany. Word has it that she's "hurt" at receiving just two Grammy nods. I loved her album Back II Basics though. It was artistically creative, I didn't like some of the throwback 20's and 30's stuff and the two-disc set seemed a bit much but B2B was in fact a great album. I thought it was bordering on genius and she's an artist I can easily respect because she takes risks. She doesn't do what she thinks will be popular. She likes to celebrate the era of real music, by endorsing it so props to her. I hope she wins at least one Grammy though because she's truly deserving of it.

Rihanna was at the Nobel Peace Prize Press Conference & Concert which took place on Sunday. Her light make-up looks great. She is such a beautiful girl and anyone who says different is straight hating. She's even grown into that 5-head of hers. The people of Star Trek would be proud I'm sure. Though, her edges are a bit rough on the sides it's nothing a bit of hair grease and a chi iron can't sort out. Well, Rihanna's idol was doing everything she could to keep hers covered:

As Beyonce Knowles leaves a South Beach restaurant in Miami, she really does have us fooled with that disguise, if you can call it that. Peepo, we see yoooouuu! And yet, we are bombarded with more Beyonce as another Dreamgirls premiere took place in Beverly Hills yesterday:

Jamie Foxx brought along his daughter Corrine, and I'm absolutely loving Beyonce's dress. Michelle hasn't looked this good since Survivor days. And Jennifer Hudson should know that satin isn't a girls best friend if you're on the large side. Just wrong on so many levels. Still, Eddie Murphy continues to parade new woman Tracy Edmonds at every premiere he attends.

Courtesy of Beyonceworld.Net, here are the scans to her Dreamgirls feature in the Vanity Fair spread:

She looks good but always remember that once you've seen ONE Beyonce shoot, you've seen them all. Same poses, same blandness. Nothing about them screams out at you. And as for that Eddie Murphy pose, how ya doin? Now let's talk Britney Spears:

The question on everybody's lips is, WHO IS BRITNEY'S NEW MAN? She was spotted canoodling with him in public and they even shared a long juicy tongue sarney. There is even a video on-line where the two are getting rather intimate.

It's none other than Jonathan J.R Rotem, the multi-platinum music producer, the man behind Rihanna's monster hit "S.O.S", "Dr. Advocate" by The Game and "Push it" by Rick Ross.

Cassie was spotted at Mokai club in Miami recently.

Will Smith and his son Jaden grace the latest edition of Entertainment Weekly. Cuuute.

Lenny Kravitz's little girl Zoe shows she's an old rock n roll soul in a young girls body as she graces the cover of Jalouse magazine. She may grow up to be like daddy after all.

Fresh from Crunk & Disorderly posted some gorgeous pictures of Ciara taken from Dub magazine. Chris Brown also has the other cover. He attended the Dub car show a couple of weeks ago and courtesy of Fresh, here are the pictures:

Niiiice.

Another Ciara picture that I'm loving right now is this one, which is a promo pic taken from her new album Ciara: The Evolution. By tomorrow, we will know exactly how much she sold in her first week. Stay tuned for more R&B crumbs.
