Beyonce has been notable in her absence from the spotlight of late, but music’s reigning royal stepped out in style last night to support ‘Queen & Slim.’

The gripping film, which is receiving showers of praise from critics, is helmed by Bey’s friend and longtime collaborator Melina Matsoukas – who directed the flick alongside Lena Waithe. 

An intimate screening was held by Matsoukas and was attended by Mrs Carter, as well as sister Solange, mom Tina Knowles-Lawson, and Kelly Rowland.

The Pussycat Dolls are back!

After much ado, Pop’s fiercest felines gave their big reunion performance moments ago on ‘The X Factor: Celebrity’ live final.

While anchored by Nicole Scherzinger, the spectacle saw fellow members Ashley Roberts, Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta, and Kimberly Wyatt show up and show out. 

Together, the ensemble (who won’t be joined by Melody Thornton for this reunion) rocked the stage with hits such as ‘Buttons’ and ‘Don’t Cha.’ They also seized the moment to close out the performance with brand new bop ‘React.’

With a 2020 arena tour to sell, PCD show and prove why their trek is already one of next year’s hottest tickets.

Welcome to Retro Rewind, the TGJ original feature carved out to celebrate some of TV and Film’s forgotten gems.

Only right then, days after Thanksgiving, that we give thanks for ‘Burning an Illusion’…a  movie many consider to be one of the greatest British movies ever created.

The release is the second British feature film to be made by a black director and is celebrated for its decision to place a black woman at the centre of its story. Groundbreaking for a movie launched in 1981.

Aaliyah has indisputably become an icon in the time since her tragic passing, aged just 22.

And she’s done so against the odds.

Because, in a wholly puzzling move, much of her music has been held off digital retail and streaming services.

Indeed, as at writing, only Aaliyah’s 1994 debut album ‘Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number’ is available. While a scant number of single tracks have been scattered across compilations.

It’s a reality that’s seen many fans rely on ever-rare physicals, YouTube, and bootlegs to bask in the brilliance of the late, great superstar.

Well, it finally seems as though the hustle and bustle attached to listening to Aaliyah is coming to an end. And for exciting reason too. Because her full discography will reportedly be heading to all streaming services within a mere matter of months.

Madonna may have a reputation as one of music’s most prolific touring acts, but her latest trek continues to be plagued by problems.

The ‘Madame X Tour’ set sail in September and has already hit a number of icebergs – namely tardiness, cancellations, and postponements.

This week saw the latter rear its head again, for the Pop royal has had to rejig and, in some cases, outright cancel dates.

Azealia Banks has never been one to hold back and it seems Tinashe is the latest name in her firing line.

Seemingly unprovoked, the rapper took to Instagram to vent her views about the singer and  the alt-R&B direction of her newest music.

Branding Tinashe a “Pop tart,” Banks went on to unpack the reasons why she sees the 26-year-old as more of an “NBA cheerleader” and why she doesn’t feel Nashe is a “star”…yet.

A series of back-handed compliments await after the jump…
