| Alicia Keys TAKES Egypt On A STROLL Through Rio de Janeiro + The "I Dream Of Nene" (SUPERTRAILER) Posted: 15 Sep 2013 07:53 AM PDT Alicia Keys was spotted taking a stroll through Rio de Janeiro with her son Egypt. See their candids inside and watch the "I Dream of Nene" trailer..... Alicia Keys, who's in Rio de Janeiro to perform at "Rock In Rio", was spotted out and about in the city with her son Egypt.
Alicia and Egypt were seen watching a show of the traditional dance/martial art of Capoeira on the city streets. Alicia's mom, Teresa, was also on the trip to help take care of Egypt. Alicia, who'll hit the stage later tonight, also posed for pics with her gracious fans.
And coming to BRAVO....... Bravo has released the supertrailer for their latest spinoff series, "I Dream Of Nene" which is set to air on Tuesday, Sept. 17th at 9pmEST. In the latest teaser, we see Nene planning her over-the-top wedding with classic lines like "This is a love story story that turned into a horror story" and 'My idea of my dream wedding (is) fabulous, over the top. I'm just going to spend what I can spend. Start at a million dollars and I'm sure we're going to go way past." The most interesting part of the teaser includes a few scenes with Greg's adult children who don't appear to be fans of their "soon-to-be" stepmother. Watch the clip above.....

| Posted: 15 Sep 2013 05:31 AM PDT Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr. pocketed $41.5 million last night as he punched and pounded his way to victory over Mexican superstar Saul "Canelo" Alvarez. See Lil' Kim, Diddy, Lil' Wayne, LL Cool J and other celebs cheer Floyd to victory inside..... Last night, Floyd Mayweather won his 45th straight fight as he ended with a 12-round majority decision over Mexican boxing champ Saul Alvarez at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The 36-year-old champion pocketed a purse worth an estimated $41.5 million in what ESPN called the "richest event in boxing history" and what insiders predict will challenge the all-time pay-per-view record of 2.44 million buys (a record Floyd set in 2007 when he battled Oscar De La Hoya). The champ told ESPN, "Canelo is a young, strong champion. A great Mexican champion. I take my hat off to him and to Mexico. He can take a loss and bounce back. Seventeen years, and I'm still going strong. I think had I pressed the attack earlier, I could have gotten the stoppage, but I am very happy with my performance." Before the fight....... Floyd was escorted to the ring by Lil' Wayne and Justin Bieber. Lil' Kim was among the celebs who came out to support Floyd Mayweather. Once upon a time, there were rumors that the two were a couple. "I Dream Of Nene" star Laura Govan watched the match with her brother Lonnie Govan. Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington sat ringside. Diddy (seated next to Rick Ross) shook the hands of a few lucky fans. Busta Rhymes was spotted. Wouldn't it have been cool if Floyd had "CSI: Los Angeles" star LL Cool J perform "Mama Said Knock You Out"?

| Posted: 14 Sep 2013 11:07 PM PDT LeBron James and Savannah Brinson walked down the aisle on Saturday, with power couples Jay Z & Beyonce and Gabrielle Union & Dwyane Wade in attendance. Get deets about the lavish wedding inside.... On Saturday, Miami Heat champion LeBron James tied the knot with his longterm girlfriend Savannah Brinson during a ceremony at the Grand Del Mar hotel in San Diego, CA., his rep confirmed to US Weekly. Among the celebs at the wedding were Neyo and power couple Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union. Gabrielle and Dwyane posted a pic of themselves headed to the festivities with the caption "Swoon #love #wedding". Chris and Adrienne Bosh were also there. Adrienne tweeted, "What a wonderful evening!! Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. James...Thanks for sharing Ur night & love with us @SavannahRB @KingJames" US Weekly reported that Beyonce and Jay Z flew in to surprise the newlyweds and Bey performed "Crazy in Love" with a full band. It was a VERY special appearance from Bey as she's currently on tour overseas, and had just performed at "Rock In Rio" on Friday. We're sure she flew out soon after the wedding as she's due to perform in Sao Paulo on Sunday. Fans of the couple will recall that LeBron proposed to Savannah on New Year's Eve at a 2012 Remy Martin V party hosted by Dwyane and Gabrielle in Miami. Since then, we've watched Savannah step out of her shell and become both a red carpet staple and budding philanthropist. We also watched her celebrate her final days as a single woman with a fabulous "Last Fling Before The Ring" party in Las Vegas! From the details we picked up from the wedding invitation, we know the couple has planned a beautiful farewell brunch for their guests. We look forward to the pics.

| Posted: 14 Sep 2013 10:10 PM PDT Though Tamar Braxton and Kelly Price took the stage at Power V-103's 22nd Annual "For Sisters Only" concert in Atlanta, the big news was K. Michelle bailing on her performance! See pics from the show inside and see what K. Michelle said about missing the show....
"The One" singer Tamar Braxton was among the talented divas who took the stage last night at the Georgia World Congress Center for the 22nd Annual For Sisters Only concert in Atlanta. While Tamar rocked the crowd and thrilled the Tamartians, her nemisis K. Michelle, who was also booked to performed, failed to hit the stage. Though fans were left without an explanation for the no-show, K. Michelle tweeted a tepid explanation for her absence (after the fact): She also added a passive aggressive jab towards an unnamed third party saying, "Glad things were fixed in Fayetteville, NC. Y'all rocked!" We don't know who that last tweet was directed towards, but someone had their -ish together in NC.....but dropped the ball in GA! We hope K's fans will accept the "technical issues" excuse. But some folks may think she was trying to avoid a run-in with Tamar. Also, Tamar's cameras were rolling for "Tamar & Vince" and we're sure K. Michelle WAS NOT going to sign that release form!
Meanwhile....... Tamar took pics with tons of fans and celebs who stopped backstage to salute her. Dr. Jackie from "Married To Medicine" was among the many folks who took pics with her.
Tamar's good friends Kandi Burruss, Toya Wright, and Shekinah also stopped by to say hello.
Actress Lisa Raye attended the show and posed with Kandi. Kandi also posed with one of the evening's other headliners, "R&B Divas LA" star Kelly Price. She tweeted, "I'm watching Kelly Price on stage right now but we took this pic backstage. Every time she sings I get chills! Love her!" Kandi and Kelly also took pics with "R&B Divas ATL" star Nikki Gilbert and "LAHH ATL" star Erica Dixon.
Erica was also spotted with Keke Wyatt. Earlier this week, Keke was spotted in Chicago at Jennifer Hudson's 32nd birthday party. Erica also posed with a shirtless Bobby V. We guess it was hot backstage.

| Posted: 14 Sep 2013 09:18 AM PDT "LAHH NYC" stars Joe Budden and Tahiry Jose were spotted "back together" recently. Find out what brought them together inside and see video of Gucci Mane squaring off with a stranger at Lenox Mall.
"LAHH NY" stars Joe Budden and Tahiry Jose were spotted in the front row at the Alhassan Toure's “Coming to America” fashion show in the artistic Eyebeam space in NYC recently. The two were seated next to each other as they filmed scenes for the upcoming season of "LAHH NY".
Alicia Key's brother, Cole Cook, was among the models in the presentation. Initally, Tahiry walked the press line alone.....as she showed off her most famous body part. Once Joe showed up, she didn't seem pleased or thrilled to be snapped next to him.
In fact, she pulled away and tried to avoid having her picture taken with him. But as usual, Joe seems to always have Tahiry within his grasp. Obviously, this love story will continue to play out before our eyes. As we told you previously, Tahiry and Joe's love story will have "competition" from New Orleans, LA and Houston once the LAHH franchise expands into those cities.
And in foolywang....... "Something in the water" ain't right with Gucci Mane. Following his very "strange" Twitter rant, the rapper and his demons have spilled over into real life (offline). We're not sure what led to the confrontation, but now Gucci seems to be getting into it with average joes on the street. A new online clip shows Gucci squaring up with a stranger at Lenox Mall in Atlanta. There isn't much context to the "near brawl", but we have to admire a quick-tempered dude like Gucci walking around with no security. We guess he really is gangsta....
