As they eye glory with their respective new albums, Ne-Yo and Miguel have learned that their wives have joined forces with Nelly‘s other half to build a reality tv show.

Its name?

‘Married to Hip Hop.’

The series, which will impact the world via E!, will follow the lives of several women with romantic ties to Urban music as they juggle life, love, conflicts and budding businesses.

Reports also indicate that Tank’s lover has also signed up to star in the series alongside Asiah Collins, the mother of Kid Ink‘s offspring and Blac Chyna‘s former friend and current foe Heather Sanders.

 

Will you tune in?

SZA is seizing her moment.

Riding high following the release of her critically acclaimed debut ‘CTRL,’ the TDE wonder hit the stage on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Joined by rapper Travis Scott, the 26-year-old delivered a spirited rendition of ‘Love Galore’ – which we’ve had on replay here at TGJ for months. Literally.

Watch SZA both sizzle and soar after the jump…

After enduring horrendous levels of violence, Nicole Brown freed herself from her husband O.J Simpson by filing for divorce in the February of 1992.

Two years later, she and her good friend Ron Goldman were stabbed to death at her home in Brentwood, California.

After a lengthy trial, Simpson was acquitted of their deaths but was found liable for them in civil court and this, much to his horror, meant he was obligated to pay the families of the deceased a sum of $33.5 million.

The problem?

He’s still yet to cover this debt and is now under pressure to cough up the cash now that he has been granted parole  and is expected to be released from prison after serving time for an unrelated crime.

David Cook, a lawyer representing Goldman’s heartbroken family, revealed:

I have a difficult job. My job is to collect on his civil judgment and not let the flame of Ron Goldman’s memory go out. He has one of the world’s three most recognizable names right now — his, the guy sitting in the White House and Vladimir Putin.When you have a name brand like this, you’re going to monetize it.

Cook hopes Simpson’s quest to capitalise on his latest case will force him to deliver the money he owes to the relatives of his alleged victims.

He had this to say before yesterdays’ announcement:

The good news for Mr. Simpson is he’s [probably] going to get out of jail. The bad news is I’m in pretty good health.

Taraji P. Henson seems keen to dominate on the TV and at the movies too.

The actress swaps the comedic sass of ‘Empire’s Cookie Lyon for an  altogether more high-action affair in Screen Gems production ‘Proud Mary.’

Henson plays a hit woman whose life is totally turned around when she meets a young boy who awakens a maternal instinct in her that she never knew she had.

A release date for the film (which also stars Danny Glover) has yet to be set, but to whet appetites a trailer has been unleashed.

R. Kelly‘s alleged efforts to groom, molest and control underage girls have done little to scar his brand…until now.

For, after his brother Carey Kelly urged him to seek help for his “problems”, Kelly now finds himself drowning in the depths of despair after the world learned of his “sex cult.”

 

 

Now, his label is under pressure to slice him out of its roster.

 It reads:

R&B singer R. Kelly has preyed on teenage girls for the past 25 years. It’s time our society stops his cycle of abuse. Join us in telling Sony to #DropRKelly for habitually preying on teenage girls for the past 25 years!

In 1994, R. Kelly illegally married 15-year-old Aaliyah, and in 2002, he was indicted on 14 counts of child pornography. He was acquitted six years later because neither the alleged victim nor her parents were willing to testify, but more than 40 others took the stand to confirm that the girl in the video was the 14-year-old girl.

Recently, disturbing reports have surfaced from parents and former entourage members who allege R. Kelly is holding multiple women in a sex cult in which he controls their every move, physically and emotionally punishes them if they break his rules, and films his sexual encounters with them to share with his friends.

Despite all of this information being on the public record, Kelly continues to tour, release albums, collaborate with artists like Mariah Carey and Lady Gaga, and be honored at events like BET’s Soul Train Awards. R. Kelly should not profit while he continues to victimize women.

The parents of Jocelyn Savage, 21, say she “is being held against her will” in R. Kelly’s “cult” and that they haven’t seen their daughter since Dec. 2016. And three former members of Kelly’s inner circle — Cheryl Mack, Kitti Jones, and Asante McGee — say six women live in Kelly’s rented properties in Chicago and the Atlanta suburbs, where he controls their entire lives: dictating what they eat, how they dress, when they bathe, when they sleep, how they use their cell phones, and how they engage in sexual encounters that he records.

R. Kelly often pays out his victims before they file charges. A Chicago attorney told BuzzFeed she has negotiated “numerous” settlements, including a recent one involving a 17-year-old aspiring singer.

Care2 members have routinely spoken out loudly to stop serial sexual predators to whom society has given a pass, including Bill O’ReillyBill Cosby, and Dr. Luke. It’s time to speak out just as loudly against R. Kelly.

We must not let habitual abusers float above justice simply because they are rich and famous. Let’s work together to turn R. Kelly into a symbol for victim’s rights, reminding abusers everywhere that no one is untouchable. Join us in telling Sony to #DropRKelly for habitually preying on teenage girls for the past 25 years!

Rob Kardashian’s nemesis Rarri True is reportedly in talks to join the cast of ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’ following the departure of its ratings rock Joseline Hernandez.

Alas, sources close to the rising Urban star claim he feels production is unwilling to cough up the cash he feels his ties to Rob and Chyna make him entitled to.

TMZ spills:

Contracts have been circulated but not signed, and the unresolved issue is money. Ferrari’s moved on and has already hooked up with someone else, and that relationship will be featured on the show.
