As if the heat on Bill Cosby wasn’t already hot enough in the days leading to his sexual assault conviction (click here to read more on that), the comedy legend has seen some of that heat intensified in the days that have followed.
Cosby, 80, was ordered to house arrest and fitted with a GPS monitor after the guilty verdict was rendered on three counts of “felony indecent aggravated assault” following a 2004 incident. Though permitted to leave his house to meet with lawyers and seek any medical treatment, the embattled star must otherwise remain in the confines of his Philadelphia home until news arrives of his official sentencing (which could be up to 10 years per count).
With the news continuing the dominate headlines well over the weekend into this week, a number of colleges and universities who once celebrated the comedy pioneer for his support of education and the advancement of the arts began announcing their intent to rescind the honorary degrees bestowed to him.
Said revocation is just the beginning his new woes:

For, after his lawyer, publicist and assistant kicked him to the curb, the ageing performer has learned that a league of altruistic celebrities have joined forces to finish him once…and for all.

If there’s anything we’re hoping Iggy Azalea learned from the constant pushbacks of her sophomore album, ‘Digital Distortion,’ it’s to steer clear of promises.
For, after announcing a number of release dates for the project last year before ultimately announcing its shelving and eventual remodeling to ‘Surviving the Summer,’ the Grammy-nominated rapstress has kept most definite info surrounding its unveiling to a minimum while pacifying with the promissory, “it’s coming.”
As fans continue to quiz for details about ‘Summer’s status (i.e. release date, contributing producers, etc.), Azalea let them in on a little secret: the project is not an LP, but an EP. Moreover, the Quavo-assisted ‘Savior’ won’t be the only song on the set receiving the video treatment:
TBS has struck gold with its breakout comedy series, ‘The Last O.G.’
As we reported here, the Tiffany Haddish and Tracy Morgan-led show – which premiered on April 3rd – delivered the network its highest ratings for an original series debut and, weeks after its impressive launch, has remained fairly consistent with its viewership draws.
The result? TBS is already ordering its sophomore season. Details inside:
As we reported here, Jennifer Lopez unveiled her latest single – ‘El Anillo’ – via a fierce performance at this year’s Billboard Latin Music Awards (April 26). Showing off her oft-envied footwork, the high octane outing only increased anticipation for the song’s accompanying music video (which premiered a day later).
With outlets around the world singing the songstress’s praises for the fashion-forward clip, Lopez is undoubtedly looking to see that fanfare reflected commercially as she continues its promotion. The latest bid for ‘Anillo’s success came aboard a visit to ‘Entertainment Tonight’ to not only give fans a sneak peek behind the scenes but also dish on the meaning behind its lyrics.

From The Vault is back this week with a jam from 15-time Grammy winner Alicia Keys; today’s pick is ‘Doesn’t Mean Anything.’
After the gargantuan era that was ‘As I Am,’ the star didn’t waste time and released her fourth studio album ‘The Element Of Freedom’ in 2009.
‘Anything’ was issued as its first single. Lyrically, it followed the footsteps of her signature song ‘If I Ain’t Got You,’ with Keys claiming that all the material gains in the world don’t hold as much value if they can’t be shared with loved ones. Again, familiar terrain for the songbird.
Sonically, the cut can be considered a close sibling to her 2007 hit ‘No One’.
Produced by Alicia alongside former partner-in-crime Kerry “Krucial” Brothers, it didn’t fare as well as its predecessors in the US. For, it never scaled higher than #60 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Still, in Europe it was yet another Top 20 hit for A.K. Indeed, it became her seventh Top 10 in the UK after reaching #8; the same peak it enjoyed in Germany too. In France, the song hit #17.
The P.R. Brown directed video skewed simple (yet effective); it saw Alicia leave everything behind and go in search of more. A metaphor for starting over and focusing on what truly matters.
**************
Given the length and breadth of her talent (together with her consistency), we’re more than ready for Alicia’s return.
With her last era (‘Here’), it was clear she aimed to re-assert herself as an “artiste”. The end product was a solid, cohesive album, but one that lacked the lightness than was sewn into the thread of past projects.
Sometimes looking back to map out the future is advantageous; as such we’d love to see Ms. Keys re-engage with sounds such as ‘Doesn’t Mean Anything,’ ‘Teenage Love Affair,’ ‘Put It In A Love Song,’ and even the polarizing ‘Girl On Fire.’ All with a fresh twist, of course.
With the world still catching its collective breath following Beyonce‘s epic Coachella performance, so too are the team of dancers she drafted in for the desert spectacle.
Jacques Bell, a Jamaican native who currently resides in Atlanta, was one of said talents recruited for the most talked about showcase of the year.
A professional dancer, choreographer, musician, and creative director, he performed alongside Queen Bey as a percussionist/member of her troop of dancers.
We caught up with him for a quick chat about the experience. Find out what he had to say below….
