Season 11 of the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ welcomed newcomer Shamari DeVoe and quickly saw the Blaque singer thrust into the mix of the Bravo show’s drama.

As she gets acclimated with the ATL’s juiciest peaches, the star stopped by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 to discuss her experience thus far.

The 38-year-old was joined by husband Ronnie DeVoe (of New Edition) and together they waxed honest about RHOA along with the peaks and troughs of their personal relationship – which at one time was “open.”

They opened up about how the latter arrangement almost ended their 18-year union.

Elsewhere, the pair revealed that have a joint album incoming and more.

In the seven years since Frank Ocean‘s 2012 breakthrough ‘Channel Orange,’ the singer-songwriter has ascended the upper echelon of music’s elite.

Fuelled by purposeful privacy and projects released at sparse rates, the performer has unlocked new levels of popularity.

Ever mysterious, the star emerges from the shadows to cover the February 2019 edition of GQ Magazine, which also dubs as its Music Issue.

Beyond posing for a dapper shoot (lensed by Alasdair McLellan), the 31-year-old gave a rare interview – opening  up about his recent relocation to New York, his approach to music today, and more.

R. Kelly‘s former tour manager Demetrius Smith has emerged as one of the villains of the ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ story.

For, like the singer Sparkle, he has been upbraided for not doing enough to protect underage girls (including the singer Aaliyah) from Robert and for forging legal documents which “allowed” him to wed the singer when she was in the 10th grade.

Now, as the backlash he is facing intensifies, he has shed more light on his time with the alleged paedophile and revealed that he is just as introduced in exploiting males as he is females…and once came onto him by  walking into his hotel room naked, putting his bare buttocks in his face and asked if he “wanted some of this.”

It’s just not a good time to be R&B legend R. Kelly.

The singer, the subject of Lifetime’s ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ (a scathing documentary highlighting decades of his alleged sexual abuse of minors), has been engulfed in a media and legal firestorm following some of its jaw-dropping accusations.

Music lovers have finally said “thank u, next” to Ariana Grande‘s chart-topping megahit as, after 7 nonconsecutive weeks of reigning atop the Hot 100 (as we reported here), the diva’s been ousted by another female Pop force:  Halsey.

Dethroning Grande with her hit ‘Without Me,’ Halsey earns her first chart-topper as a lead act, second overall (the first came courtesy of her guest role on ‘Closer’ by The Chainsmokers).  In addition to becoming only the 9th female artist to notch multiple #1 singles this decade (Rihanna – 9, Katy Perry – 8, Taylor Swift – 5, Adele – 4, Cardi B – 3, Kesha – 3, P!nk – 3, Britney Spears – 3), the singer’s done so with a little help from friend Justin Timberlake.  As her cut, ‘Without Me,’ features interpolations of Timberlake’s Timbaland-produced hit, ‘Cry Me a River,’ the song lists JT as a co-writer and thereby sees him credited by Billboard with another #1 to his name.  The move brings his career total to 6 chart-toppers to date.
