Jharrel Jerome‘s won an Emmy for “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie” for his portrayal of Korey Wise in the Ava Duvernay-directed Netflix mini-series ‘When They See Us.’

Based on the real life events surrounding the 1988 Central park jogger case that saw five men of color falsely prosecuted for charges related to sexual assault, Jerome’s performance in the four part streaming event was lauded by critics and viewers alike.

Tamar Braxton set the net alight yesterday (September 18) after her appearance on ‘The Wendy Williams Show’ saw her dish on her former ‘The Real’ co-hosts, commentary that earned a clap back from the ladies collectively.

As we reported here, Braxton – when quizzed on if she had a desire to return to the FOX talk show panel – emphatically declined, citing the ladies’ ‘cattiness’ as the main deterrent.  Once word reached the desk of ‘The Real’ they addressed the matter on their show and even extended an offer for the ‘Love & War’ singer to continue a discussion about their differences there.

Her response to the invitation?  Taking to Instagram with screenshots to provide “proof” it was hostess Loni Love who got her fired from the Emmy-winning talk show years ago.  Love didn’t take the accusation lightly.  Look inside to see how the comic’s clap back started an all night war:

With little warning Beyonce took to social media Sunday (September 15) to deliver a gift to her beloved fan base (better known as the #Beyhive).  Packaged in the form of a behind the scenes ABC special (as we reported here), the diva offered viewers an inside look at the creation of her ‘Lion King’-inspired album, ‘The Gift.’  Zooming to #1 on Billboard Soundtrack and R&B Album charts respectively, the set – kicked off by the anthemic ‘Spirit’ – was lauded by critics for its inclusion of the who’s who of the Afrobeats scene, feminist concepts, and socially conscious lyrics decorated with unapologetic themes of pro-Blackness.

In an effort to show fans how all that magic came to be, the Grammy-winner unveiled ‘Beyonce Presents: Making the Gift.’  Airing Monday (September 16), the special may have given viewers little time to prepare but still managed to hold its own against the night’s many forms of ‘must see TV’ including sports, news, and scripted programming.

Look inside to see just how many people tuned in.

Katy Perry fans, affectionately called #KatyCats, are still a-chatter after the unveiling of the music video for ‘Small Talk’ – the latest single from the singer’s yet-titled sixth studio album.

Unleashed Friday (August 30), the clip – directed by Tanu Muino – sees the 34-year-old and her beloved pooch, Nugget Perry, take to the dog show to compete for ‘best in show.’  And, while she was deemed a winner in the visual, real-time Spotify and iTunes charts reveal the tune is lagging behind the real-world competition as it is completely absent from both tallies despite the support of the critically acclaimed video (which has amassed 11 million views on Youtube to date).

Hoping to boost interest in the Charlie Puth-produced project, which has peaked at #81 on the Billboard Hot 100 as of the chart’s latest refresh, Katy’s inviting viewers into yet another behind the scenes look at the clip’s creation.
