There is simply no stopping the entertainment force that is Jennifer Lopez.

Before the ink is anywhere near dry on the last chapter of ‘American Idol,’ the ‘On the Floor’ singer is already on the move to her next big projects.  With a new movie, rumored new music, and a Vegas residency on lock (in addition to a slew of TV production projects), JLovers in need of a weekly J.Lo fix needn’t worry as the triple threat diva is set to hop from FOX to NBC for the police drama ‘Shades of Blue.’

Expected to have a midseason debut during the 2015-16 TV season, get into the trailer below and tell us:  will you be tuning in?

But, a recent interview with our buds at Buzzfeed shows Mimi has a few other things she thinks she rules  – namely ‘Taboo’ (the board game) and the kitchen (as we also saw here).

Going over ’40 Things You Should Know About Mariah,’ the 45-year-old diva dishes on her likes, many dislikes, new Christmas film, and so much more.  Get into some fun-filled – and somewhat shady – highlights below:

It’s been nearly a year since she’s lifted a single from the project, but if fans thought Grammy winner Jennifer Hudson had closed the book on her third album ‘JHUD,’ they should think again.

With Caitlyn Jenner dominating headlines for her fierce “intro,” the timing couldn’t be more apt for her pro-LGBT music video for “I Still Love You,” a visual celebrating marriage equality.

Made in conjunction with The W Hotel’s ‘TURN IT UP FOR CHANGE’ campaign to increase funds and awareness for LGBT marriage equality (for which J. Hud’s been appointed ambassador), tuck in below to get you first full look:

All roads lead to July 17th for ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ star Viola Davis & triple threat diva Jennifer Lopez.

As we reported here, the duo have teamed for the new Charles Stone III-directed thriller ‘Lila & Eve’ (a la ‘Thelma & Louise’) that will see Davis (Lila) portray a grief-stricken mother whose son has been murdered.

Together, they embark on a journey of revenge.
