Jay-Z telling Beyonce to retire after giving birth?

For those who may be still living under a rock, R&B superstar Beyonce announced she was pregnant with husband Jay-Z's camel child on the MTV Video Music Awards. Now my spes are telling me Jay-Z wants Beyonce to retire after giving birth to be a full time stay at home mother. It seems Jay-Z is a traditionalist when it comes to raising a family and believes the mother should stay at home. Sources tell me Beyonce is seriously considering hanging up her crown as the Queen B in order to become a full time mother. Honestly, I love me some Beyonce but a good five year break from the spotlight wouldn't be a bad idea at all. I agree with Jigga on this one.

RIP Aaliyah!!!!

Can you believe it's been 10 years since the world lost music icon Aaliyah? It was on Aug. 25, 2001, when Aaliyah Dana Haughton lost her life in a plane crash. Aaliyah had just completed filming of her music video "Rock the Boat" in the Bahamas when the twin-engine private plane she boarded crashed just after take off killing her instantly along with 9 others. She was 22 years old. The world will never know how far Aaliyah's career may have gone, but she forever left a lasting impression.

Kris Humphries' family disgusted at wedding circus?

It seems not everybody was impressed with the wedding of the century. I'm hearing from my little birdies that Kris Humphries' family members were appalled at the circus young Humphries' wedding to Kim Kardashian turned into. Sources tell me family members for Humphries were turned off by the massive amounts of E! cameras shooting the wedding and felt the ceremony was more of a TV production than an intimate gathering. I'm told members of Humphries' family had a hard time hearing the actual vows due to the helicopter noise hovering above and felt the majority of the guest invited knew nothing about either the bride or groom, which took away the intimacy of the ceremony. It does not look like The Kardashian Family is making a lasting impression on the Humphries clan. Stay tuned for future family drama!

Say it ain't so! Will and Jada over?

The world is officially coming to an end. Rumors are circulating all over the web that Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have called it quits after 13 years of marriage. Sources close to the couple are telling me the reason for the split may be a certain co-star of Jada's. I'm hearing Marc Anthony, who co-stars along with Jada on the TNT series "Hawthorne", may have turned to Pinkett Smith for comfort following the demise of his marriage to Jennifer Lopez. It is alleged when Will found out about his wife and Anthony, he immediately left the mansion he shares with Pinkett Smith and filed seperation papers. This story is about to heat up in the coming days, which means good news for my blog.

How bored is Oprah at OWN?

I'm hearing from my reliable sources the former "Queen of Daytime" herself, Oprah Winfrey, is having a hard time being in charge of her OWN network. The Queen B is said to never have wanted to fully be involved in her channel and thought others would be able to carry on her vision. What Oprah didn't anticipate was viewers being turned off by OWN's lack of original programming. My spies tell me Oprah did not want to work anymore after ending her long running talk show this past season and was upset that she had to takeover the OWN network to save it from being taken off the air. I'm hearing Oprah is highly bored with her new position and is itching to hand over the reigns to someone she trusts once the new season of her OWN programming begins this fall. I don't know about you but it sounds like Oprah just wants to enjoy her retirement and has no desire to run anything for the rest of her life. Who can blame her?

Is Paris Hilton about to be disinherited?

A source close to the Hilton family is telling me Rick and Kathy Hilton have threatened to remove their daughter Paris from their will if she doesn't change her selfish ways. For years Paris Hilton has gotten away with her wild behavior and her parents have always tolerated it but now sources say they are warning Paris to change for the better. It seems Paris is not taking too kindly to her parent's new demands and has told her friends she will not change for anyone. My spies tell me if Paris does not change for the better, her half of the inheritance will go to her sister Nicky, who has never embarrassed the Hilton name. The day Paris Hilton changes her ways is the day reality TV goes away.


Is Reggie Bush on the banned list for Kim Kardashian's wedding?

It looks like Kim Kardashian has given strict security orders to keep her ex-boyfriend, pro NFL player Reggie Bush, away from her upcoming weekend wedding to NBA baller Kris Humphries. My spies are telling me Bush plans on interrupting Kardashian's wedding to prove to the world he's the only man that will ever love her. Kardashian is said to be worried that Bush will ruin her big day and is taking ever precaution to make sure it does not happen. According to my sources, Humphries is ready to take on Bush should the former Heisman trophy winner show his face at his wedding. I don't know about you guys, but I'm hoping Bush does crash the wedding so I can write another juicy gossip blog.

Are Sarah Jessica Parker's former "Sex and the City" co-stars pissed at her??

We shouldn't be surprised but sources are telling me that Sarah Jessica Parker's former "Sex and the City" co-stars Kristen Davis, Cynthia Nixon and Kim Cattrall are fuming over SJP's decision to produce a new version of the hit HBO show based on the "The Carrie Diaries" . It seems SJP's former co-stars are angry that they are not included in the future profits of the new show if it were to become successful. According my sources, Cattrall may take drastic actions and block Parker from producing the new version of the franchise. "The Carrie Diaries" is the prequel to "Sex and the City" which follows a teenage Carrie Bradshaw way before she meets her three compadres. It looks like things are about to heat up.

Will Bravo postpone new season of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills"?

Word on the street is Bravo will postpone the upcoming new season of their highly rated reality show "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" in wake of the shocking suicide of star Taylor Armstrong's husband Russell Armstrong. While understandably showing respect for Armstrong's family, Bravo is said to be pushing season two, which was set to begin September 5, to early next year. I'm hearing some members of the cast, who shall remain nameless, aren't too thrilled with the news despite feeling sorry for Taylor and her pain. It seems the unamed housewives want the show to go on despite the tragedy. No final decision has been made by Bravo exec Andy Cohen on the future of the Beverly Hills franchise. Stay tuned!

Just wanted to take a little break from celebrity gossip to bring you a new feature called Hot Mess of the Week. This week's hot mess goes to this girl by the U Street Metro Station who dared to wear freaking rain boots in the summer with no rain. Where they do that at? She must not have friends who love her.

Tune in next week for the next edition of Hot Mess of the Week.

Why did Russell Armstrong commit suicide?

As most of you have heard, "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Taylor Armstrong's estranged husband Russell Armstrong was found dead of an apparent suicide. According to reports, Russell hung himself in the home he shared with his roommate. Police say they have not yet found a suicide note. Taylor recently filed for divorce last month from her husband, citing Russell physically abused her. Sources are coming out and claiming Russell may have committed suicide to avoid a long divorce process and to keep the graphic details of his marriage to Taylor from ruining his professional image. For now, Taylor is said to be distraught over her estranged husband's death and wishes for privacy in order to break the news to the couple's 5-year-old daugther Kennedy. Russell was 47 years old.

Is Jennifer Aniston making a TV comeback?

It looks like Jennifer Aniston is finally taking the hint and relieving America's pain of having to see her in future movies. My sources are telling me the former "Friends" star is looking to make a TV comeback by next year. Aniston's production company is said to be shopping around various TV projects for Aniston to star in. It seems Aniston has been disappointed at her lack of box office appeal and is ready to go back to her roots and do what she does best. I'm hearing HBO and Showtime are the two frontrunners who are salivating at the chance to launch Aniston's comeback. Stay tuned!!!

Is Basketball Wives star Tami Roman targeting co-star Meeka Claxton?

Word on the street is Meeka Claxton better watch her back because Tami Roman is still not done with her. Claxton, who joined "Basketball Wives" for season 3, was not a favorite of bad girl Roman. In fact, in one episode, Roman physically assaulted Claxton at a Rome nightclub which caused Claxton to leave the country and head back home to Miami. My spies are telling me Roman and Claxton got into another altercation backstage at the Basketball Wives reunion, which led Roman to mouth off that she was far from done with Claxton. If I were Meeka, I'd hire security because we all know Tami will whip that tail.

Jay-Z and Kanye West already beefing?

Is there already a beef between Kanye West and Jay-Z? Sources are telling me the hip-hip duo, who just released an album together this past Tuesday entitled "Watch The Throne", are already at odds over how they want their upcoming tour to go. My spies tell me Jay-Z wants to do a toned down intimate tour while West is aiming for an all out expensive show. Those in the know say Jay-Z wants to be fully in charge on how the "Watch The Throne" tour is run and has instructed everyone involved with the tour to ignore any suggestions made by West. It looks like Jay-Z will get his way due to his status in the entertainment community and the fact he is a no nonsense businessman. As much as I love Kanye, I understand Jay-Z's side to do a show where the fans can at least afford to go see.

Is Jennifer Hudson giving her fiance an ultamatum?

Lord we knew this was going to happen one day. A source close to Academy Award winner Jennifer Hudson tells me the multi-talented superstar is giving her fiance David Otunga an ultamatum, quit wrestling or else. Otunga, who graduated from Harvard Law School, quit his high paying law firm job in order to pursue his dream of wrestling for the "WWE" under the name "Nexus". Hudson, who was supportive of her man's dreams at first, allegedly is now embarrased by what her fiance does and feels he should go back to working in law or stay at home and take care of their 1-year-old son while she's off doing movies. My spies tell me Hudson is threatining to leave Otunga if she does not get her way. Really Jennifer? You know that man doesn't want to stay home and take care of no baby. Let him be.


Is Emma Stone the next Julia Roberts?

Look out Julia Roberts, you've got major competition about to dethrone you as Hollywood's next big thing. Her name is Emma Stone and at this rate, she's not going anywhere. Stone, who's new movie "The Help" opened Wednesday, is taking Hollywood by storm and on her way to becoming a force to be reckoned with. America first noticed Stone in the 2007 film "Superbad" and she has appeared in a string of hits which has resembled the same path Roberts paved years ago. Next up for Stone is the highly anticpated Spider-man film "The Amazing Spider-Man" opposite The Social Network's Andrew Garfield. It looks like we will be seeing Stone for the foreseeable future.

Are Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock together?

My spies are telling me that Hollywood has a new hot couple and their names are Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock. Sources say Reynolds, 34, and Bullock, 47, were seen walking hand in hand and have been spotted at several restaurants looking very cozy. Bullock recently made a rare appearance to support Reynolds at his "Green Lantern" movie premiere. Reynolds recently finalized his divorce from actress Scarlett Johansson and Bullock finalized her divorce from serial cheater Jesse James. Call me crazy, but I think these two make a great couple. Good for Bullock for finding love again after getting her heart stomped on.

Is Halle Berry about to fire her manager and agent?

It seems Halle Berry is ready to make a change in her team. Sources are telling me the Academy Award winning actress is getting ready to fire her agent and manager due to the poor movie roles that have come her way since she won the Oscar for "Monster's Ball". According to a source close to Berry, she is ready to start fresh and is looking for representation that will fight to give her more original and demanding roles. Some in the know say Berry, who has two movies being released this year, is feeling like her time has passed and she is working hard to avoid that at any cost. The question is, why is Halle now wanting to make a change? Thanks for the 10 years of crappy movies Halle! America owes you a debt of gratitude.

Is Anne Hathaway not feeling the love as the new Catwoman?

By now, many have seen the first look of Anne Hathaway as "Catwoman" in the new Christopher Nolan directed Batman movie "The Dark Knight Rises". It looks like America's Swetheart is getting negative reactions from the released photo of her in costume as Catwoman before the movie is even released next summer. My spies are telling me Hathaway is very upset by the fan reaction and it is starting to affect her performance on set. Sources say director Nolan had to pull Hathaway aside in order to give her a pep talk and advised the Oscar nominated actress to ignore the negative press. I'm going to hold my opinion until I see the actual film but it's gonna be hard to top Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman from "Batman Returns". Just sayin!!!!


George Lopez blaming Jay Leno for his show being cancelled?

It looks like Jay Leno just made a new enemy in the comedy world. According to my spies, George Lopez, who's TBS late night talk show was cancelled yesterday, is blaming Jay Leno for the failure of his show. This all goes back to when Jay Leno left the Tonight Show back in 2009 and took it back a year later when his primetime show tanked. Leno coming back caused Conan O'Brien to lose the Tonight Show, which led O'Brien moving to TBS bumping Lopez to the later midnight time slot when all of the east coast is asleep. Sources say Lopez is incensed at the trail Leno created, which led to him losing his job. Could it be Lopez's show was cancelled because it wasn't funny? I'm just saying!!!!


Say it ain't so? J.Lo and Marc Anthony back togther?

My little birdies are telling me that Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are headed back to a reconciliation any day now. Unless you are living under a rock, Mr and Mrs. Anthony recently announced they were divorcing and it was about to get ugly between the two when it came to resolving the divorce settlement. Now my sources are saying Anthony begged his superstar wife to return to him and he would change his hot latin tempered behavior. Lopez, according to my spies, is seriously considering taking Anthony back to keep herself from being a three marriage loser. Stay tuned!

Is Monique on the rampage after BET cancels her late night talk show?

Seems Academy Award winner Monique has fallen victim to the infamous "Oscar Curse." You know the curse where almost every actor whose won an Oscar is cursed for life in the entertainment field i.e. Cuba Gooding Jr., Kim Basinger, etc. The latest victim is Monique, who's late night BET talk show was recently cancelled due to low ratings and let's face it, no one could stand how loud she was. Sources say Monique is on the warpath and her main target is BET CEO Debra Lee, who some say made the final decision to pull the plug on the ailing talk show. My spies tell me Monique has told her team she will no longer associate herself with future BET projects and will not attend public events if Lee is there for fear of what she may do. Memo to Monique, who told you to abandon comedy and movies for a talk show? Your loud ass should be on the big screen or a comedy stage. Don't be mad at Lee. She did you and the rest of America a favor.


Is Bow Wow ready to retire?

My spies are telling me Bow Wow (real name: Shad Moss) is ready to retire from the music business. It seems the 24-year-old Bow Wow, who's first album came out when he was 13, is not feeling the love from his record label Cash Money and wants to devote full time to his second love, acting. Sources say Bow Wow is tired of playing second fiddle to his label mates Drake and Nicki Minaj and wants out of his contract in order to spend his full time conquering Hollywood. Bow Wow, who had a recurring role on Entourage and was most recently seen in Tyler Perry's Madeas Big Happy Family wants to put music behind him in order to make more movies. The real question is Bow Wow still makes music? I thought he was already retired.

Has NeNe Leakes banned her son from appearing this season on The Real Housewives of Atlanta?

My sources are hearing that "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star NeNe Leakes has banned her son Bryson Bryant from appearing on the upcoming new season after his latest run in with the law. As you may have heard, Bryant was reportedly arrested in July for shoplifting two Mach 3 razors from a Walmart, estimated value a whopping $14 each, which violated his probation. According to my spies, Leakes was so embarrassed by her son's latest brush with the law that she contacted Bravo and informed them Bryant would no longer be participating in remaining episodes of the hit reality series. Leakes, who has been in hiding since her son's latest arrest, has not spoken publicly about the incident and wants to remain focused on giving Bravo a good season. It's nice to know where Nene's priorities really are.


Did the cast of Entourage really want the series to end?

I'm hearing word from reliable sources that the cast of Entourage is none too pleased that HBO is ending the series this year. The cast was not happy when told by HBO execs that not only would season 8 be their last, but there would only be 8 episodes. No one was more vocal at their displeasure than Kevin Connolly, who plays Eric Murphy. Connolly allegedly was so incensed at the news of the show going off the air that he threatened to never work for HBO again. Sources say Connolly feels betrayed by the network and thinks the show easily had another 3 seasons to go. No offense Kevin, but Entourage's ship sailed a long time ago and it's time for the audience to let go and move on. At least this season is going out with a bang if you saw last Sunday's shocking ending.


Lindsay Lohan never offered John Gotti movie?

It looks like Lindsay Lohan, who was reportedly cast as Kim Gotti in the highly anticipated biopic of John Gotti, Gotti: Three Generations with John Travolta in the title role, really never was in the movie to begin with. Sources say Lohan was never seriously considered for the role and was used by the producers to add legitimacy to the movie. It seems producers saw Lohan as a liability due to her past legal troubles and only needed her name to gain publicity for the film. This isn't the first time producers of the John Gotti biopic have allegedly used a celebrity to gain press for their film. Joe Pesci, who was cast as Angelo Ruggiero, is reportedly suing the filmmakers for hiring but later firing him after he says he gained weight for the role. I can't say I feel sorry for Lohan but it sure looks like she was given the shaft on this one.

Is Vanessa Williams devasted over "Desperate Housewives" being cancelled?

Sources are telling me Vanessa Williams did not take Desperate Housewives' creator Marc Cherry's announcement to end the once popular show, after it's upcoming 8th season, all too well. Seems the former "Ugly Betty" star is devasted that "Desperate Housewives" is ending and does not know where she will find her next TV gig. My spies have informed me that Williams' agent is already hard at work pitching TV show ideas to TV Land and ABC Family since they are on a roll resurrecting the career of stars who were popular in the 80s and 90s. If I were a betting man, I predict Williams will end up on ABC Family or TV Land as somebody's mother. It may not be what she wants, but a check is a check in my book.

Is Vivica A. Fox telling her agent to book any job?

Seems Vivica A. Fox is going through the recession like the majority of us in these tough times. Sources tell me the veteran actress has instructed her agent to consider every role offered to her whether it be off-broadway plays, low budget films, TV-movies, or cable TV series. The latest project Fox did not turn down was the opportunity to join the cast of Lifetime's The Protector opposite Tisha Campbell-Martin. Fox will debut episode 12 as Captain Lisa Novak. At this rate, I could hire Vivica A. Fox to star in the local gospel revival of Lean On Me. But I can't knock her hustle. Bills gotta get paid somehow.

Trouble in paradise for True Blood's Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin?

Is there trouble in paradise for real life married couple True Blood's Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin? My spies are telling me that Moyer is very uncomfortable with the recent sex scenes his wife Paquin has had to play with hunky co-star Alexander Skarsgård. Seems Moyer, who plays the 150-year old vampire "Bill", has asked True Blood producers to tone down the sex scenes between Paquin, who plays the lead heroine "Sookie Stackhouse", and Skarsgård, who plays Bill's vampire rival "Eric." According to my sources, producers have told Moyer to suck it up because they are not changing a thing. I'm not going to lie, those recent sex scenes were hot and I can understand Moyer's concern, but you're an ACTOR, deal with it.

Is Beyonce fuming over poor album sales?

Looks like the Queen Diva herself Beyonce is fuming over her latest album "4" performing under expectation. Even though her album debuted at number 1 selling 310,000 copies its first week, it still was considered her lowest album seller since she went solo. Sources say Mrs. Carter is giving attitude everywhere she goes and r

efuses to listen to her own songs on the radio because she is upset with her record sales. Knowles, who fired her manager/father Matthew Knowles earlier this year, is now according to sources regretting coming out with a new album so soon after the release of her hit double album "I Am... Sasha Fierce." Ummm Beyonce, I could have told you no one wanted to see you back so quick. There's a thing called overkill and you've just about crossed it.

Is Lara Spencer secretly vying for Robin Roberts job on GMA?

It looks like Robin Roberts needs to watch her back for up and coming new Good Morning America correspondent Lara Spencer. Spencer, the former co-host of the tabloid show "The Insider", recently joined Good Morning America and according to my sources is aiming for the head co-anchor job currently occupied by Roberts. I'm hearing Spencer has already sweet talked her way to more airtime and it is starting to show on air. Roberts really does not know who she is dealing with when it comes to Spencer and has even taken the young correspondent under her wing to make sure she is a success on the morning show. Oh Robin, can't you see you're being played, allegedly?


Is Jessica Simpson hiding a secret pregnancy or just gaining weight before her upcoming wedding?

It looks like Jessica Simpson is either secretly pregnant or really packing on the pounds before her upcoming November nuptials to NFL player Eric Johnson. Sources say Jessica has been under a lot of stress planning her 11-11-11 wedding, which is causing her to eat everything in sight. But my other sources are telling me Jessica is secretly pregnant and doesn't want the scandal of being pregnant before she actually ties the knot. If that's the case, then Jessica needs to realize it's 2011 and no one really cares if she was pregnant before her wedding. This isn't the 1950s. Well you be the judge, pregnant or pre-wedding weight gain??????

Will George Clooney ever get married?

What's the real reason George Clooney refuses to get married? The 50-year old bachelor, who recently broke up with Italian beauty Elisabetta Canalis, reportedly will not ever consider marriage and is thinking of making it crystal clear in a contract before he starts getting serious with any other female. According my reliable sources, Clooney, who was once married to actress Talia Balsam from 1989-1993, makes it very clear to the women he starts dating that marriage is out of the question and if there are any hints the young lady wants to get married, they are cut off completely. Clooney, who owns a villa in Italy, will not give up his playboy lifestyle and expects the women he is with to accept it or he will start drafting a contract stating such fact. We get it George, you don't want to get married but you don't have to be a douche about it. Ladies, be warned. He will not put a ring on it.

Was tonight's splash off between Basketball Wives' Jennifer Williams and ex-husband Eric staged?

For those who just watched the "shocking" season finale of Basketball Wives saw the splash heard around the world when ex-NBA has been Eric "big ass knot on my forehead" Williams splashed his ex-wife Jennifer in the face with a glass of martini. But was this for real or staged? My spies tell me VH1 producers wanted to make the finale as dramatic as ever and advised Jennifer and Eric to come up with ways to shock the audience. Well it looks like Jennifer and Eric put their heads together and decided throwing drinks at each other, especially Eric doing it violently to Jennifer, which they knew would spark outrage. Next time, Jennifer needs to find a way to rip that ugly ass knot off Eric's head which would truly shock the audience.


Is Stacey Dash on her way out of "Single Ladies"?

It seems that Stacey Dash didn't get the memo that even black actresses in Hollywood can be easily replaced. According to my sources, seems the ageless beauty caused so much tension on the set of VH1's hit primetime soap "Single Ladies" that no one wants her back when the show resumes production on Season 2 early next year. Spies tell me Dash even caused a fist fight with co-star LisaRaye McCoy and you know "The Player's Club" star had to be held back before she went upside Dash's head. If it were up to me, I'd be calling Nia Long's agent to replace Dash all together.

Britney Spears vs. Nicki Minaj

Britney Spears may be on a career high with her latest album and "Femme Fatal" tour but sources are telling me she is regretting her decision to include the current "Queen of Hip Hop" Nicki Minaj on her tour. It seems Britney is not exactly getting the love on her own tour that she expected and has caused such divalicious behavior backstage due to some in the crowd demanding for more Nicki Minaj instead of her. My spies tell me Britney decided to include Joe Jonas on the European leg of her tour since she feels he doesn't possess the same up and coming power that Nicki Minaj has going on. Really Britney, step up to the competition and embrace that people actually are enjoying your music again.


Did Kelly Rowland Intentionally Expose Herself to Boost Sales?


Did Kelly Rowland intentionally expose her perky breasts at a recent appearance in order to improve her sagging sales? Sources say Rowland's team encouraged the former Destiny's Child singer to expose herself at a promotional appearance in order to create buzz for her latest album "Here I Am." Rowland's third album, whose single "Motivation" has been a summer hit, hasn't really exactly lived up to par selling only 77,000 copies debuting at number 3. If this is true, then the music industry really will stoop low to sell albums.
