Here’s American Idol winner Jennifer Hudson’s new video for “Spotlight”. She’s looking FAB these days and this song is hot! This is the first single off of her album, which is set to drop in September and if you were wondering why the hook is so addictive, it’s because Ne-Yo penned this single. I already love it!
?
Not only is Ne-yo a talented singer and songwriter, now he’s a hot rapper! ?He’s the next up on the “A Milli” kick and he’s flowing freestyle over the hot track. Oh…and he let’s all y’all haters know that he makes more dough writing lyrics than you ever will. ?This one is a must have!?

I’m sure Busta?thought Ne-yo’s lipgloss was poppin, but dayum….couldn’t they wait until after the photogs left. 😕 I’m sorry y’all, but I was forced to?watched?”The DL Chronicles” last night?and then I see this dayum picture over at NecoleBitchie! *sigh*? It really wasn’t that bad though…besides the fact that I wanted to scratch my eyeballs out after seeing?love scenes between two fine ass Black men.? Full of poor production and predictable storylines, the?DVD attempted to bring Down Low behavior to the forefront by using a Sex and the City like narrator.? Maybe it’s me and my ability to see through people…but does “Down Low” even exisit anymore?? My friends and I see dudes at industry events and parties and we can just tell.? I can’t explain it…we just know.? So…sorry guys.? You really ain’t hiding nuthin.
Jennifer Hudson is on fire.? Not only is she featured in the highly anticipated “Sex and the City” movie, she’s also been working with top-notch producers on her new album.? The self-titled debut album is expected to be released in September, with the first single, “Spotlight,” hitting U.S. radio?airwaves in June.?
“Spotlight,” described as a song about insecurities within a relationship, was composed by R&B songwriter and vocalist Ne-Yo, who co-produced along with the Norwegian production duo known as Stargate.
Additional contributors on the album include Timbaland, Robin Thicke, the Underdogs, Diane Warren and Christopher “Tricky” Stewart. (Source)

Ne-yo held his annual?Mother’s Day Brunch for 50 single and foster mothers from the metro Atlanta area Sunday at the Loft in Castleberry Hill.? The event was invitation only and?was sponsored to raise awareness of the need to drastically reform the U.S. foster care?system.? Ne-yo’s mother was present, however Ne-yo?was unable to attend this year’s event.??Don’t worry though, John Legend took up?the slack and?gave the?mothers a heartfelt performance.?
On a side note, Sandra Rose is reporting that Andre “3000” Benjamin’s mother, affectionately known in the “A” as “Ma Benjamin” was also unable to attend the event due to damage received to her fayetteville?home during Sunday morning’s?tornados.? We wish her the best and pray for all of the families affected by this weekend’s storms.
