Of the myriad of talking points, perhaps the most intrigue has centered around the identity of “Becky with the good hair.”
Well… ‘Becky’ allegedly outed herself shortly after the airing of Beyoncè’s HBO special in an instagram post and when the Beyhive found out, it was LIGHTS OUT for designer, Rachel Roy!

The music world was shaken after the popular singer’s untimely demise in a plane crash in August 2001. Dash, who was dating the superstar at the time of her death, says that he could have saved her, stating:
There’s no chance that if I was there, we would’ve been on the plane.
It would have never happened that way. Aaliyah and I was in Miami. She was shooting a video in Miami and I was in Miami with State Property. She was gonna do a record with Freeway.

Another day, another reality show… this time VH1 has decided to help a few family’s with their issues while still providing a bit of entertainment.
In a new reality show called ‘Family Therapy,’ four families check into a treatment center run by Dr. Jenn Mann (‘Couples Therapy’) to work on problems with their loved ones.
Family Therapy, Episode 1
The premiere season features quite a few interesting characters. Tiffany “New York” Pollard aims to show her mother Michell “Sister” Patterson she is no longer the little girl that can be bossed around and controlled; Bam Margera, joined by mother April, comes to not only work on mending the family members he tormented for years on shows like Jackass and Viva La Bam, but also to get sober; Brittany and Briana DeJesus need to fix their sibling rivalry; and Dina and Michael Lohan, despite already being divorced, want to mend their relationship for their children’s sake.
[Sidebar: Having New York, Sister Patterson & Dame Dash in the same room is bound to be a good time but I ain’t gone eeeen lie… I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet, so I don’t have much of an opinion about it. But I digress..]
Check out an exclusive sneak peek of the premiere episode of VH1’s ‘Family Therapy’ below and feel free to share your thoughts. Continue Reading…
Welp… the ‘highly anticipated’ Aaliyah biopic was a total fail… at least in the eyes of the twitterverse!
‘Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B’ aired last night (November 15, 2014) on LifetimeTV and the television network’s treatment of the life & times of Aaliyah Haughton was not exactly as bad as they say, but it was bad enough to be totally hilarious.
The film was terribly cast, horribly written and being that Aaliyah’s family was dead set against it (click HERE if you missed that), there was no Aaliyah music anywhere in the flick.
Lifetime also tiptoed around Aaliyah’s scandelous relationship with R. Kelly, to whom she married when she was 15 (he was 27), treating it as a love story gone awry. One scene even included a heart-to-heart between the pair where Aaliyah (played by Alexandra Shipp) states, “Eighteen feels like an eternity from now.” *sigh*
