In addition to taking home three – count ’em – THREE awards at this year’s BET Hip Hop Awards (Hustler of the Year, Single of the Year, and Best New Hip Hop Artist), the ‘Bodak Yellow’ beauty left viewers seeing pink with her hot performance of one the year’s biggest anthems – currently the #1 song in the country for a third week.

Janet Jackson took a break from blazing stages on her State Of The World Tour to head to Disneyland with surprising company – Ciara.

The ‘Feedback’ singer posed it up with Ci, who has long cited her as influence. She even tributed her at the 2015 BET Awards.

But yesterday was all about family time.

The singers were joined by their sons Eissa (eight months) and Future Zahir. Janet’s tour crew were also on hand.

While this seemed like more of a mom trip, surely we’re not alone is salivating at the prospect of a collaboration. The video (and the dancing within) would be fire!

For now though, peep pics below…

Bruno Mars may have hit Platinum and more with his album ’24k Magic,’ but the promotion continues.

A year on from the release of the LP, the crooner is still on a colossal tour and prepping a CBS TV special christened Bruno Mars: 24k Magic Live At Apollo.

It’s official:  Miley Cyrus’ new album, ‘Younger Now,’ has delivered one of the worst first week sales figures of any established female pop act this decade.

Unlike Fergie’s abysmal numbers (which can to great degree be attributed to lengthy inactivity and the 10 year time lapse between her two solo projects), Cyrus has been fairly active over her storied career and even managed to see her last studio album, 2013’s ‘Bangerz,’ blast to the top of the Billboard 200 with approximately 270,000 units moved its inaugural week.

For ‘Younger,’ her fifth official era, the pop darling opted to abandon her temporary love affair with Urban pop to embrace her country roots.  And, while the shift appeared promising at its onset as the lead single, ‘Malibu,’ made a splash in the Hot 100’s top 10, that run was short-lived.

Despite an aggressive promo run that saw her hit the talk show circuit and more, the new album found itself lost in the fray of a host of big name releases – namely her fellow pop star Demi Lovato and the return of Country Pop Queen Shania Twain.  The result?  Miley, as forecasted, wound up miles behind the two powerhouses:

Nene Leakes has lost the plot. Officially.

Fresh from her digital brawl with Brielle Biermann (daughter of Real Housewives of Atlanta co-star Kim Zolciak), the reality star has once again shown just how uncouth she can be.

During a stand-up show gone wrong, the aspiring comedienne was reportedly being heckled by an unimpressed audience member.

Unable to take the heat, Leakes responded by telling the woman that she “hopes she got raped by her Uber driver on the way home.” Yes, you read right.
