THURSDAY'S R&B SCOOP ....

Mya's album looks like it's about to find itself buried in the pits of hell as she pushes back her album for the zillionth time. Fans have been waiting for her new album Liberation from LAST YEAR and since then, the album has been pushed back to MANY dates that never see the time of day. Apparently, Mya's album has been pushed back from the 14th August 2007 to the 18th September 2007. Who wants to bet some serious money that the album gets pushed back to next year?



Hey Tashema, looks like you were right. Mya's album isn't coming out until next year. Boo-hoo! Anyway, Courtesy of That Grape Juice here is the download for her next single Walka Not A Talka but why is she even bothering? The song is shitty. It's a wrap!

Did ya'll know that Rihanna's daddy use to be a crackhead? Read on!

Jennifer Lopez looked mad stunning when she attended the Children's Health Fund Gala Dinner at NYC's Hilton Hotel on Wednesday, which honored President Bill Clinton with the Humanitarian Award:



I love this chick. She's hot. Anyway, her ghastly hubby Marc Anthony performed at the event.

Rihanna made an appearance French TV show "Le Grande Journal" this week where she talked about her dramatic rise to superstardom:



They asked her questions about her idol Beyonce and the different stages of her career. Also, the #1 spot on the Billboard's this week belongs to Rihanna! On the Hot Digital charts, Rihanna came in at #1 with a whooping digital sale of 276,705 copies with her latest new track Umbrella! When Rihanna's new album Good Girl Gone Bad gets released next week, I am telling you that she is going to sell 1 million copies in her first week, and if not, she will DEFINITELY go gold. And when it does happen, remember that *I* predicted it. Rihanna has also set an iTunes download record. Rihanna's Umbrella hit is the biggest debut in iTunes six-year history. This is the SECOND record that Rihanna has conquered. Last week in the UK charts, she made history as the FIRST female artist to get to no 1 on downloads alone. And in a rare situation where she talks about her white father Ronald Fenty, she tells Giant magazine how she is proud of him for beating his crack addiction. She and her two brothers Rorrey and Rajad grew up in Barbados watching their father struggle with his drugs demons. She says:

"I just knew that my mom and dad would always argue when there was a foil paper with an ashtray. He would just go into the bathroom all the time. I didn’t know what it was. (But) he knew that to get closer to (his kids), he had to cut that out. And he did".

I wonder if Rihanna hooked up with her idol and arch rival Beyonce for a bite to eat as Beyonce was in France at the exact same time. Here are some pictures of Beyonce performing in Marseille, France on May 29:





France was where it was at. Her dancer didn't seem all that fascinated as she was yawning during the performance. Haha. Funny.
