Since joining the series in its third season, Phaedra Parks has used her platform on ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘ to raise awareness for a number of societal ills.

Praised for her continued efforts to solve the Flint Water Crisis among many other crises while on the show, Parks now finds that she is the one in need of help after unconfirmed reports claimed she had booted from the series.

How its fans has received this news?

Poorly, and they’ve taken to Twitter to lambast the unconfirmed report with hopes it will see the altruistic attorney retain her position.

Finally! Super excited to hear what Toya has cooked up. Are you?

Pop icon Mariah Carey has proven once again it’s nothing for her to shake it off – “it,” in this case, being rumors that she and label home, Epic Records, were imminently due to part ways due to the nonperformance of her latest efforts (see:  ‘I Don’t,’ etc.).

Taking to press today, Epic Records not only made the shocking announcement of “recommitting” to Carey’s contract, but also added fans can expect a new album from the diva THIS YEAR!

News that Phaedra Parks has been fired from ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ has been heightened by a digital move made by the attorney.

There may be trouble ahead for Chris Brown and Lil Wayne.

A tale of loose lips and potentially tall tales below…

Another couple bites the dust and this time it’s Mariah Carey and dancer Bryan Tanaka.

According to TMZ, the couple have gone their separate ways and the climate is far from pleasant.

The reasons, per Mimi sources, centre on alleged jealousy.

Our sources say Bryan had unbridled fury over Mariah’s relationship with ex-hubby Nick Cannon. She’s been chummy with him for sure, mostly for the benefit of their twins. They vacation as a family and go to dinner and parties together, sometimes without the kids. We’re told it drove Bryan insane.

We’re told Bryan would lash back at her by flirting and even coming onto women in plain view of Mariah.

The last straw came at the Kids’ Choice Awards last month, when Nick and Mariah took the twins. We’re told Bryan felt the display “disrespected” him and during the event he demanded she come home.

The report adds that the 47-year-old star also felt Tanaka slid in to her life conveniently following her split from fiance James Packer. She’s also said to have become fed up of funding his lifestyle.

Although, we’re scratching our heads at those claims as she wasn’t forced into anything.

***********

We can’t pretend that we cared much for this showmance. In many ways, like much of Mariah’s antics of late, the whole thing was an embarrassment for all involved. Like, who can forget that catastrophically cringe “scene” on ‘Mariah’s World’?

Hopefully the changes she’s making in her private life roll into her professional endeavours too, because that most certainly needs a number of tweaks.

Your thoughts?

It’s safe to say that Katy Perry‘s comeback plans haven’t yielded the results many thought they would.

Perhaps lost in a chart fray caused by Pop’s latest batch of nondescript upstarts, her new single ‘Chained to the Rhythm‘ has failed to become just as impactful as her earlier hits.

Worrying, as hits stand as the lifeblood of Perry’s career and the impressive album sales she’s always pulled in.

However, thanks to her fans in the United Kingdom, the cut has enjoyed a chart resurgence.

Season 9 of ‘The Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ reached its dramatic climax last night, but the fireworks look set to pop all the way off during its four-part reunion.

Set to kick off this coming Sunday, the gathering will see Kandi‘s feud with Porsha and Phaedra reach boiling point, while Kenya comes under scrutiny for her suspect relationships.

And there’s a whole lot more.

Following the release of an initial look-see, an extended preview has been unleashed…

Your thoughts?

Beyonce continues to wrack up the accolades – even for her older work.

2011 brought with it the singer’s 4th opus, the aptly titled ‘4.’ And as with many of Queen Bey’s releases, the album birthed many a video including the scintillating ‘Dance For You.’

Directed by brother-in-law Alan Ferguson, the clip – which is inspired by 1940’s film noir – has reached a major milestone. It has become VEVO Certified.

The high-octane visual, shot while she was pregnant with Blue Ivy, crossed the mark over the weekend and now sits at over 100 million views.

*************

Notable is the fact that the song was never serviced as a single and came at a time when Bey begun doing away with song-focal release strategies and instead pushed visuals to the forefront.

Sure we wished ‘’Dance’ was was showered with the success it deserved (given that it’s a BOP), but feats like this prove that great content will always find a way to win. Congrats!
