Taraji P. Henson continues to drive fresh and original content towards her fans this year.

Seemingly gearing up for the end of the Fox series ‘Empire‘, the last year has seen the actress step into several roles designed to showcase the skill her role as Cookie may not necessarily demand.

One of these roles can be found in the movie ‘Hidden Figures’ which will impact movie-goers on Christmas day.

Another?

The Simpsons.

Scribbled in history books for some good and not-so-good reasons, 2016 brought with it some of modern music’s most memorable moments.

As the year draws to a close, TGJ is reflecting on 31 moments that rocked – and to some degree shaped – the Urban and Pop musical landscape as we know it.

Now, we reflect on how the year’s most anticipated film – Nate Parker’s ‘Birth of a Nation’ – became one of the year’s biggest flops:

It seems VH1 made the right move by opting to place Rita Ora and not Karrueche Tran at the helm of ‘America’s Next Top Model‘s relaunch.

For, after seeing its ratings slip and slide at The CW, the show’s revamped version has picked up its highest-ratings in five years.

It looks like Mariah Carey may share more with Christina Milian than an ex in Nick Cannon.

Because, just like the singer’s 2004 hit, the ratings of her new E! “docu-series” are dipping it low.

It’s not all doom and gloom, though.

Find out why below…

I think it’s pretty safe to say we know at least one person who was none-too-pleased with today’s Golden Globe nominations’ announcement.

While the likes of Justin Timberlake, Donald Glover, and more celebrate their nods, 50 Cent – who has never been one to mince words when it comes to STARZ hit show ‘Power’ (which he produces) – made his disdain for the academy well known when he eloquently suggested they “suck a d**k.”

Did you miss his headline-grabbing rant? It awaits below:

Kerry Washington and Viola Davis.

Two of Hollywood’s most towering talents stepped in style last night at the 22nd Annual Critics Choice Awards at the Barker Hangar in LA.

It marks the first major appearance by ‘Scandal’ star Washington since the birth of her second child last month. Needless to say the snapback is real.

Her Shondaland sister Davis also turned heads and earned an accolade in the process.

She bagged ‘Best Supporting Actress’ for her role in Oscar favorite ‘Fences.’

Set to open to the public on Christmas Day, the film’s early slayage certainly bodes well for the star and her co-star Denzel Washington heading into award season.

Donald Trump‘s Presidential run (and subsequent win) forced him to abandon his role as the star of ‘The Celebrity Apprentice.’

Doing little to disturb the executive-producer he still holds on the series, his decision to part ways with the series saw the bodybuilding legend/actor/political heavyweight Arnold Schwarzenegger step into his shoes as the show’s boss.

When ‘The New Celebrity Apprentice’ is set to air?

January 2nd!

Peep your very first look at the season, which stars Porsha Williams, Tyra Banks and Laila Ali, after the bounce!

Set to premiere April 14th 2017, the flick arrives on the heels of 2015’s ‘Fast & Furious 7,’ one of the fastest movies to reach $1 billion worldwide in box-office history – and the sixth-biggest global title of all time.

Officially christened ‘The Fate Of The Furious,’ the film reunites favourites Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Ludacris, Tyrese, and Michelle Rodriguez. The collective also welcome Charlize Theron into the mix as ‘Fast 8’s central villain.
