If you didn't catch last nights season premiere of Love and Hip Hop Hollywood here's what you missed...


Christopher Milan
The cast returns with some new faces and new situations this season.  Milan Christopher is the newest cast member to the Hollywood franchise.  He is an openly gay music producer which is rare in Hollywood and he was not afraid to showcase those details of his life one bit.   Christopher is a music producer and model who has worked with artist such as  Beyonce' and Kanye.  Christopher is seeming to have a struggle with the fact that his boyfriend isn't out of the closet yet.  Miles Brock (Chris Milan's boyfriend) doesn't appear to be ready to come out yet.  He has some concerns which comes in the form of family.  He isn't ready to tell his family because he doesn't know how they will take it. Could there be more to the story than that? WELL THERE IS because Miles someone else is in love with Miles besides Chris and that someone is female rapper Amber Hunter and she isn't aware of Miles sexuality.  I guess we will have to keep watching.  YOU KNOW I WILL!  I will say this though>>>>>  YOU MUST BE PLANNING TO COME OUT VERY SOON BECAUSE ONCE YOU START FILMING A NATIONAL TELEVISION SHOW THERE IS NO MORE CLOSET!!!  People do get that right????????


Moving along...
Apryl

 Apryl and Omarion are both enjoying parenthood with their son Mega.
Omarion
 Now that Apryl has bounced back she is ready to get back out into the scene how she was before she was pregnant.  She is ready to get back to the money, but before she does that she has a plan for getting back to "the nasty" as she calls it!  See Apryl and O haven't been doing to well in the smash department because there little boy is always interrupting.  Apryl talked things over with her girl Nikki and Nikki decided to hook her up with some sexy under garmets to help them get their groove back!  Apryl took very well to this and showed up at O's dance rehearsals very sexy and demanded her mans time so that they could get "nasty."  LAWD I HOPE NOBODIES KIDS ARE READING THIS.

ANYWHO...


Ray J is still being his simple self.  He has his girlfriend Princess Love concerned about his fidelity as usual.  The two have went through some rough times outside of filming the show.  An argument between them landed Princess Love in jail and she seems to have some resentment toward Ray for that.  When all seems forgiven Princess Love meets with Ray J and before deciding to give him another chance she throws an ultimatum on the table.  Princess Love wants Ray J to get rid of his apartment on the side because she doesn't feel a man in a relationship should have an extra apartment. WAIT I JUS HAD A FLASH BACK TO ANOTHER LOVE & HIP HOP FRANCHISE.... DIDN'T THIS HAPPEN IN A............ Never mind I'm back! LOL   So anyway Ray J obliges but in normal Ray J idiotic fashion he throws a bon voyage party for the damn apartment and hires a bunch of strippers to come and dance for he and his guests.   Princess Love catches the tea and barges in on the party.  Ray J looks foolish and PL is disrespected by one of the dancers which sends her into a rage. She goes into full attack mode, but before she could totally wreck shop security steps in!!!


It was surprising to see Princess Love reach out to Tiearra Mari and for Tiearra to be open to giving her advice on the situation between PL and Ray.  All seems to be good between the two after their conversation BUT I know I am not the only person who saw that shady ass face Tiearra made after the two women hugged each other.  The previews didn't even have to tell me that there is shade to come!!!


The ultimate gagger was when Moniece announced that she is dating someone new and that someone is Love and Hip Hopper Richie Dollaz!!!!!!!!!  I HIT THE FLOOR!!!  I couldn't even swallow that tea it was son funny.

Alright my good people...Please keep watching this season of Love and Hip Hop Hollywood.  I will be keeping you recapped and letting you know my thoughts each week.  Always feel free to comment so we can start a conversation!!    Don't forget to follow me on social media sites and tell a friend  to tell a friend that...

A PITTSBURGH MOMENT!


Sofia Vergara joined her new fiance Joe Manganiello
 in his hometown this past weekend to enjoy some time together and
 also watch the Pittsburgh Steelers play during the NFL playoff season!






The couple's first stop was at Pittsburgh's famous Primanti Bros Restaurant.  Sofia shared this photo on her Instagram where she also
posted the hash tag #Istartdietmonday
If you have never been to Pittsburgh, be sure to stop at Primantis when you get here!!!




Sofia showed her well known comedic side while shopping for Steeler gear
but she made it well known to Joe that she would not be wearing
the hat to Heinz Field!  I think the Chanel bag will do! LOL





It is always fun to see our people who leave the city to become super stars return with so much passion and love.  It is even more fun when they return with fellow super stars by their side!!! Although the Steelers did not win their game against the Ravens WE ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST TO EVER DO IT

Big shout out to Joe Manganiello & Sofia Vergara!!!

Hollywood Divas (That's Questionable!)




These Hollywood Divas have totally lost me.  They are giving the word DIVA it's old meaning back!!  These cats will scratch and bite and scratch some more!!!!

I am not understanding this groups dynamic at all.  More importantly how or WHY it even got started.  If this show was the idea of Paula Jai Parker or bringing the girls together was her idea, then why in the world would't she choose to work with people she actually likes??

Don't get me wrong I get that all of these ladies "feel" like they are professionals, but this show is a hot mess.  I was so down for this show before it aired.  I even ignored the skeptics who predicted that a mess was unfolding.  Hollywood Diva's have done nothing but disappoint so far.  The egos of these women are terrible.  Besides Countess Vaughn, the rest of these women need a huge ego check.  As I said before, when will these so called divas realize that they agreed to come on the show because their careers were obviously lackluster.  Wouldn't it be a smart thing to ACTUALLY work TOGETHER to do an amazing project that the fans would love to see?!?!?


I keep watching in hopes that they will figure something out.  Golden just seems like she has to have all of the attention.  It's like she has to be glorified to feel important.  People are not going to continue to glorify Maya.  You have to get into Golden and stop complaining and nit picking with the other ladies.  Elise is almost 50 years old and honestly she never sold it as a burlesque dancer which is why the Pussy Cat Dolls probably said "we got this boo you just keep acting" #JustTea #NoShade

Lisa Wu is being Lisa Wu.  She is a reality star.  Put producer/actor/writer behind her name and that is all well and good.  The truth of the matter is, however, that Lisa Wu is a reality star.  She put a lot of time in on The Real Housewives of Atlanta so she knows how to play the game.  Lisa has this show on lock better than the "Ac-Tor's" as a lot of them liked to say it on last night's episode.  Lisa is doing some petty drama stirring.  I am not surprised by her actions at all, because although I think she is honestly a good person.  She knows how to sell the show.

Countess Vaughn should probably be a little more firm in her position as well.  She can have more respect if she just demands it in the right way.  I also feel like people like Countess have way more ideas and thoughts, but allow overbearing people to scare them out of expressing themselves.  Countess is very talented, but her intimidation is shining through more than anything.  It is kind of sad to watch because I am a huge fan!




I don't know what will come of this show in the next few weeks, but I am still hoping for something good.  Stay tuned!

Hollywood Divas (You haven't seen shade 'til NOW!)





How shady are these Ladies?? Let me count the ways!!



1.  Elise is clearly the ultimate diva so far.  She has made it very clear that she is above all of the other actresses on the show.  This blows my mind because I always thought she was one of the corniest actresses on TV!!!! (Shady moment!)  Once Paula came to her with the project she had planned, Elise was very skeptical from the gate.  She was made aware that other women would be involved in the project and she wanted no involvement unless the women were on what she feels is her level in the industry.  tsk tsk tsk!  I'll get back to her!


2.  Golden Brooks met crossed paths with Countess Vaughn in an acting class.  Golden was exuding shade the moment she walked through the door and Countess turned around to greet her!!  I felt it if Countess didn't.  BUT WAIT...what's all the shade about boo...yall are in the same acting class  AND both of your old shows are on rerun SO WHAT'S THE TEA GOLDEN???  Somebody help me understand.  The two ladies were put together in an improv scenario and it was not hard to tell that the ladies took it up a notch.  They were both showcasing good talent, but they were coming for each other and from my point of view Miss Golden started the reading session!  Countess is no amateur though because as subtle as it may have seemed, she through jabs right back to Golden EASY!

3.  Lisa Wu GIRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLL I know you packed your boxing gloves for this trip to LA!!!  Now most of yall may know that Lisa was one of the original Housewives of Atlanta.  What many don't know about her is that she is from California and has worked in the industry for many years.  These actresses cannot take that she has been invited to join them for Paula's project.  You know coming from "reality tv" and all.  They didn't give the girl a chance at first meeting.   It was a mess how rude they were!!


4.  I was shocked to find out Paula was living in a motel with her husband and son!!!  I thought she was well off.  I mean I do realize she hasn't had too much recent success, but I just assumed she was one of those actresses who took some time to work behind the scenes.  WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO???? She has put in a lot of work during her career!  I was baffled!  Miss thang needs to get it together though.  I am so confused at why she would want to bring all of these women together and then be shady toward them all at the same time.  It seems as though she is bitter towards 2 out of four of the women so why did she bring them on??  That just seems a little weird to be but whatever works for her I guess.

5.  I don't know about you guys but I was extremely happy to see Countess back on tv!  I love her through it all.  It would be amazing to see her get her career back on track.  People still love and support her, but it is definitely time for some new roles and Kim is a great actress.  I pray that her confidence level can be restored and that she can be happy with her self because it is sad to see anyone struggle with self acceptance and not fitting in.  I just hope these girls don't get too rude to her because she already seems uncomfortable around them.  They are a little bourgeoisie and they seemed to ignore her a lot when they were all together.  Honestly I think that is sad because she paved the way for all of their careers!!!

This show could be a train wreck!  I mean when will these divas learn that whenever you sign up to do a show like this that means you are all on the same level!!! Now it is your job to work together to come up!!!  The black community in entertainment need to really become more graceful.  Cliques and groups are understandable because that is just a natural thing that happens with the human race.  People just need to learn to be more respectful and helpful.  Maybe that's a dream world, but all of these women were dreamers before they were stars and the made things happen.  It's time to start making things happen again.  More heads are better than one so they might as well join forces and get their power back!  Hollywood waits for no one, but fans do and fans want to see good spirited people!  Don't disappoint us Divas!


First episode was deep!!  Hope you guys enjoyed this review :)  Until next time...

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood (Melodramaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)






Love & Hip Hop Hollywood is  two episodes in after last nights show.  Were you watching??  I have to be honest.  I feel like this show is a little weak.  The drama is unfolding, but at what cost??

It seems like friendships are being broken just for camera time and drama!  I mean Ray J's assistant is clearly playing both sides when it comes to her friendship with he and Teairra.  She talked mad mess behind Teairra's back on the first episode.  Then she turns around and calls herself defending her during T's spas out at the RayJ.com party, but turns right around talks mess on her again in the midst of the commotion.   Wait a minute tho...  THEN SHE IS GOIN TO BE BACK TO DEFENDING HER AGAIN WHEN SHE MEETS WITH RAY NEXT EPISODE!!!   Oooool I wish I had emojis on this laptop!!!!  These chicks clearly never were friends.  I think Teairra should see that the assistant chick was only on her team while she was on Ray J's team.  The two girls may have thought they were friends, but they NEVER were and they should just leave it at that.  (Only observations not facts!)


Now for the melodrama.  IF TEAIRRA DOES NOT STOP WITH HER RAH RAH ANTICS!!!  I just feel like if you are tough you don't have to prove it all of the time.  If you are an ass kicker it will show when you kick some ass.  People will begin to recognize that you kick ass and some may fall back and some may kick your ass back! lol I'm just saying.  It seems like in every scene Teairra has to basically make it known "that she ain't the one."  This makes her appear to be somewhat insecure, and somewhat of a bully.

 From the outside looking in however, I see that Teairra may have some serious trust issues, and from the looks of things she may have every right.  It seems like she has been played on all angles from friendships to relationships.  This is what probably makes her lash out.  Now I'm no Psychologist but I can understand when a person feels like they have to be on attack mode because of distrust.  The smart thing would be to remove yourself from the situation rather than lose yourself in it.  JAREBEARSAYS  Teairra's talent cannot be denied, but this show can either hurt or help her career.  It's not looking good tho T.  Leave the heartbreak in the past and move forward boo.  If you are going to use Love & Hip Hop to rebuild your career and fan base, then give these women and girls out here something positive to look to.  We all love a little drama.  That is why we watch, but we also love to see people prosper so get to work!

Fizz is having baby mama drama.  I don't even think it is cool.  I say this because his bm is coo coo!!!  She cannot be concerned about her son.  She is causing unecessary drama all in the name of her son.  She is coming between Fizz's two year relationship.  It is sad to say, but the girl is a mess.  She is not over Fizz and anyone watching knows it.  She still hasn't asked to see her son in all of this, but shes having meetings with the girlfriend.  IS THIS CHICK SERIOUS???  Actions speak LOUD!  How are you calling this girl to a restaurant to sit across from her and call her names.  It was so ratchet.  She doesn't even know Fizz's girl but the girl is raising her child.  Why can't she thank her for being there when she isn't able to be.  For making sure her son gets home from school safely.  I don't get it.  Why make problems where there should be none?  This chick is looney.  That's all there is to that.


Yung Berg is a talented producer... #Thatsall


Souljah Boy...Uggghhhhh I don't even like to say that name.  It's no shade...ok yes it is!  That dude gross's me out.  Anyway...Why is Nia surprised about the info she received about he and Karrine??  You have been dating this dude on and off for 8 years and everything he has done in those years have been the focus of hip hop media.  I mean it's not wrong to feel hopeful that some one can change or be better, but COME ONNNNNNNNN this clown is not that person.  Not at this point in his life anyway.  He was so quick to find the dumbest reason to dismiss her at the studio when she came to talk to him.  It was not hard to see that he knew he was wrong, and chose not to deal with it by making her feel bad about it.    I hate to be negative, but some of these people just take you there!!




All of the artist on the show should rethink their purpose before they continue to down grade themselves.  Reality tv is a fad and can be gone tomorrow like the last big thing.  Will these stars be around after reality tv or will they fade to black... I guess we'll have to wait to see.  I'm not going to go on because there will be more to discuss next week.  So if you didn't get it anywhere else at least you know....

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood (New City, Same Game!)

Bye Bye Atlanta...


The series premiere of Love and Hip Hop took place last night  on vh1.  The newest addition to the franchise just happens to be in the city where dreams come to life.  Yeah that's right Hollywood, California.  With all that goes on in these television shows, you would think that the fact that they are filming this new series in Hollywood would give people a chance to actually see these artist hard at work on their careers.  WELL OF COURSE THAT IS NOT THE CASE!  Mona Scott is clearly not interested in shedding too much positive light on the participants of these shows and it is evident that these artist are just looking to maintain fame rather than actually rebuilding their careers.  TV IS ALL ABOUT RATINGS.  Most of them are lacking in the career department, which is why they even get involved with these shows.
                    @RayJ

Love & Hip Hop Hollywood stars Ray J who most of you know is an R&B singer/actor.  He formerly dated singer Teairra Marie, who is also a cast member.  She and Ray J are no longer in a relationship.  In fact Ray J actually has a new girlfriend who is also a part of the show.  I GUESS Teairra GOT THE MEMO A LITTLE TOO LATE because she acted out all up and through this episode.  Teairra is highly pissed off that Ray J has moved on.  She had it in her head that there was still a chance for her and Ray, but Ray shut that down.  In normal idiotic fashion Ray decides to invite Teairra to an event he had where his girlfriend would be as well.  His assistant Morgan warned Ray that it was a bad idea, but who does Ray J listen to??? So Teairra shows up, gets taunted by Ray's girlfriend, Princess Love, and Teairra get's in full attack mode!!!  Drinks flew and blows were thrown before security had to immediately stop things from going any further.


              @MissTMari
Teairra is a beautiful girl, but something aint right with her.  It could just be the Detroit in her, but she seems broken.  She has a very hard exterior for such a pretty girl and her anger is written all over her face.  I am no Dr, Phil and TRUST I have issues of my own that need to be worked on, but They put it on tv for us so Imma talk about it.  Teairra can really sing so why isn't she putting out music???  Well she admitted that she was dropped from her label, but looking at how she is acting so far on this show.  She may be scaring people like my FAVE used to do! lol Yall know who I'm talking about.  Teairra if you ever see this blog I just want you to know that we all got a lil crazy in us so I'm not judging you boo.  I just want to hear the music so please get back to it!  THANKS :)               @1OMARION

Omarion is on the show with his girlfriend, Apryl Jones, who is now his babies mother as well.  Now we all know Love & Hip Hop can't exist without some body letting their crazy mother get involved.  In the history of Love & Hip Hop you know that it takes a ratchet mother to stand behind a talented son and get all up in the middle of his ADULT LIFE!  Omarion's mother has made it clear what her role will be in the show right away.  WE SEE U MOMMA, but do we have to??????????????  IJS Anyway Omarion and his girlfriend seem to be happy together and since the shows taping they have welcomed their child into the world.  Omarion is pretty established in the music industry.  He is currently signed to Maybach Music Group where he will be releasing his upcoming album.  O seemed to get a lot of negative comments from people on twitter last night.  But like a man with good sense he brushed the haters off and retweeted plenty of positive tweets from his fans.  When you are talented and aware of what you have offered throughout your career the haters can't be anything but motivators.  Omarion needs to just stay focused and keep up the great work.  We see you!


Souljah Boy...
I'm not gonna go there.  I'd rather just watch the hot mess unfold.  I will say this though... Teddy Riley we are praying for you and your daughter.  She seems like a very nice girl who may want to consider a new boyfriend.  It's no shade but my daughter WOULD NOTTTTTTTTTT even be able to think about dating that guy!

             @AirFizzo
Fizz formerly of B2K has made his way back into the limelight.  He is definitely having some baby momma drama, which is sad because he appears to be responsible for his son.  I am most interested in his story line because a lot of black fathers do not get portrayed well on television.  It would be great to see a man step up to the plate while still trying to work hard and provide.  Idk what Fizz has been doing since B2K but he still has his looks and obviously still has his connections so we will just bid him good luck.  Hopefully this show will bring good things to him.  His baby mother on the other hand seems a little janky!!  YEAH I SAID IT!!! She a lil gold digger who doesn't seem too concerned about her son.  She is clearly more pissed off that she isn't with Fizz.  What the hell is up with these chicks still thinking that in 2014 having a baby will keep you and your man together?????  #NORELATIONSHIPGOALS


Were you sucked in by this new show?? Will you all be watching each week??  Let me know, and let me know your thoughts and opinions on this cast.  We can have discussion if you just comment below!!  Before I get out of her I will leave u with a little reminder.  If you didn't get the story anywhere else you know....

Battle of the fur! (Vh1's Hollywood Exes go at it!)

On episode 1 & 2 of the third season of Hollywood Exes we find ourselves still listening to Mayte and Nicole go at it in what I'd like to call "The Battle of The fur!" 





         Nicole Murphy                              VS                           Mayte Garcia





We all found out in season 2 that Mayte was anti fur and team vegan.  So it wasn't surprising to see her so upset when Nicole's friend and her daughter showed up to a gathering wearing their fur hand bags and vest.  Mayte feels that she was ambushed and that the women showed up that way to provoke her. That caused Mayte to pick a fight with Nicole and storm out of her house allegedly breaking a large sugar dish before she exited.  Mayte denies that she purposely broke the dish, but as a viewer imma just say that I don't believe her! She claims to have knocked the dish over accidentally when she grabbed her purse off of the counter.  Anyone with two eyes can see that she already had her purse in her posession before she went into the house.

The other ladies are having trouble trying to bring the drama to an end because both Nicole and Mayte are two strong headed indviduals who refuse to apologize and accept their fault in the situation. Drea invites the girls to dinner in hopes to mediate them but it doesn't seem to work out so favorably. Tempers flare and emotions run high.  Sheree and Mayte end up in a screaming match over an event where Mayte didn't show up for Sheree.  Mayte defends herself by saying she is working on building a family and throws a lil shade at Sheree saying "everyone doesn't have Will Smith money" because she is a single mother who has to work hard.  This sparks a higher level of intensity and pisses Drea off!!! She exits the table followed by Mayte, who seems to make a pattern of running away.  When Drea returns the ladies continue their talk in a respectable manner while Jessica and Shanna console Mayte outside.

All of this drama began about fur and ended on a whole other topic!!! These ladies definitely know how to make something out of another thing because I didn't know if PETA or the Pinkett-Smiths were going to show up! I'm just saying

If you are not watching vh1's Hollywood Exes then you are missing out.  Wednesday nights at 9:00pm!

Check back for future episode recaps or if you just like to know what I think about any of our fav reality tv shows!  I thank you for reading, and I hope you will continue to enjoy my blog.  Drop a comment below and we can have a conversation :) Until next time... be blessed and be a bessing!

Oscar Talk! (2014 Academy Awards)





If you are a huge celeb buff like myself, obsessed with all things entertaining, then you were up past 11:00 pm last night engrossed in all things Oscar!  The Academy Awards went off without a hitch.  The stars stepped out yesterday evening with enough glam for all of Hollywood to see.  Every year we look forward to award season and what the stars are going to bring to the table in the fashion department but I don't think anything ever fully prepares us for the red carpet of Oscar night!!!

From Jennifer Lawrence to Sandra Bullock, and Will Smith to Robert Deniro,   celebs were dressed to the nines!   As far as I was able to see from my television screen, not many disappointed last night.  I know that we all have our favorites and sometimes it can be challenging to choose just one so I am going to give my choices for best dressed women and men of the evening.


Jada Pinkett-Smith

Although not a nominee, Jada showed up with husband Will by her side, and she was STUNNING!  This light pink Versace number was very elegant and showed just how much class a woman can have even if she isn't the guest of honor.  Congratulations on your look Jada.  You are indeed a fashionista!!!



Bette Midler

Dressed like the true diva that she is, Bette almost made it as my favorite of all of the women last night!  She arrived to the red carpet rocking a red floral Reem Acra design that accentuated her curves and gave her the look of class she carries so  well.  Bette performed for the first time at the Oscars.  She did  the song "wind beneath my wings."




Lupita Nyong'o


There are many words that can be used to describe this beautiful young lady, but I'm only going to use one...WINNER!!! Yes Lupita not only brought home the Oscar for her category but she takes home the fashionista of the season award if I do say so myself!  Lupita was gliding down the red carpet in this light blue Prada gown that she and her stylist worked together to choose for her for the evening.  Lupita has failed to disappoint one time during this awards season and I know that everyone agrees with me on that.




Leonardo Dicaprio



Leo was nomintaed last night but did not bring home the Oscar.  Many were disappointed, but I'm sure Leo was proud to be nominated in a category with such prestigious actors.  We all know that the talent was overflowing in that theater and he was among.  He donned a black Dior tuxedo and walked the red carpet as gracious as a man could!



Matthew Mcconaughey


Matthew Mcconaughey forced all men to step their game up last night.  Not only did he bring home the Oscar for for best supporting actor in Dallas buyers club, but he also accepted his award with one of the best speeches of the night.  I don't know how Kevin Hart would feel though about him stealing his famous line "alright, alright, alright" but he definitely stole the show in his black & white Dolce & Gabbana tux!


Jared Leto

Jared is definitiely my top pick for best dressed male last night!!  He wore an amazing Saint Laurent tux with a red bow tie, and studded buttons down his shirt.  I think he showed all men that you can be classy when the show calls for it.  His lovely locs didn't even hurt his look.  Jared was definitely best dressed last night and he dedicated his golden statue to his mother who looked just as amazing!




Ellen Dengeneres was the hostess with the mostess at last night's Academy award show!  She was hilariously funny as usual, and kept the guest alive!  Ellen was in the business of breaking records yesterday and that is exactly what she did! Unofficially the best to host the show yet! (my opinion) Ellen snapped a group selfie and wanted everyone to take to twitter so that they could RT or retweet the photo.  She brokedown twitter and broke the record of most retweeted photo that was once held by POTUS Barack Obama!!!! Can you believe that???  over 1.4 million retweets within an hour of posting!  She also ordered pizza and had it delivered to the theater where she passed out slices on paper plates to the hungry celeb guest!! WHO DOES THAT?
