Cop a gander of Kelly Rowland!

The R&B chanteuse looks lush a-front of The Sun Herald’s Sunday Life Magazine.

Ms. Kelly covers the publication in promotion of her stint on The Voice Australia, on which she’s serving as a coach.

Talking to interviewer Cosima Marriner about her life goals, the 36-year-old said:

“I want to be a great wife, I want to be a great mother, but I want to be a great me to myself.”

The feature arrives following confirmation from Rowland that her fifth studio album will be hitting stores this year.

Yet again Kendrick Lamar gives his fans and competitors another reason to say “damn.”

The Grammy-winning rapper, whose latest album, ‘Damn,’ was released on April 14th, was projected to top the Billboard 200 with an impressive 485,000 units moved.  If the prediction remained true it would give his set the honor of being in second place for the year’s best first week sales (second to Drake‘s ‘More Life’).

But, in a turn of events expected by everyone, ‘Damn’ exceeded expectations by a handsome sum near the end of its first full tracking week, .  The new figure not only ensured K.Dot’s third tenancy of the #1 spot on album charts, but now places Drake behind him on the “year’s best first week sales” tally.

Despite efforts to push pill-popping soul numbing party purveyors to the masses, the music industry continues to soar highest when it backs acts who offer real stories and substance.

Today, it is reminded of this fact with the news of Kendrick Lamar‘s first week sales with his new LP ‘DAMN‘.

With 610,000 units moved in its opening week, the set occupies the top spot on the Billboard 200 and outperforms the 505,000 units Drake moved with ‘More Life’ and breaks Ed Sheeran’s record for the best-selling first week of the year.

Where his numbers sit without streams?

362,000.

Lil Mama‘s position as a multi-hyphenate star continues to see her soar above critics who made the mistake of writing her off.

This year, following her performance in the TLC biopic, she is to front the gripping Falicia Blakely Story.

The movie drops in September 2017 and sees TV One and Mama team up to tell the story of a teenage girl named Falicia trying to find safety in a dangerous world but finds herself caught in the web of dangerous predator.

Lies, betrayal, abuse and murder follow.

Joining her in the movie is Floyd Mayweather Jnr, Tami Roman, Lil Zane and ‘Formation‘ performer Big Freedia.

‘Shadow and Act’ adds:

The screenplay is executive produced and written by industry veteran Cas Sigers-Beedles, who previously wrote and executive produced the TV One movies Welcome to the Family and “Girlfriends Getaway” 1 &2.

Welcome to Retro Rewind, the TGJ original feature created to unearth hidden gems and moments from entertainment’s often scandalous past.

In a time far removed from today’s (2006), Beyonce found herself tasked with ensuring that her sophomore album ‘B’Day‘ steered clear of the sophomore slump and secure the full support of an Urban community who shunned her for the part it believed she played in the treatment of her former Destiny’s Child group members.

Coupled with the meteoric rise of Urban media darling Ciara, the pressure was on to win over and hold the support of a typically tough crowd.

With all this mind, it isn’t difficult to understand why the amiable vocalist would often agree to offer interviews with outlets fronted by personalities who’d bash her daily.

What happens when she and mother came face to face with one of these personalities?

The incident took place before fans of all parties learned of claims that Jones came close to being murdered by Kevin Hunter…Wendy Williams’ husband.

‘Scandal’ is back!

Following a longer than planned hiatus (to accommodate Kerry Washington‘s pregnancy), the show picks up right where it left off – with fireworks!

Forming a central part of the revived TGIT (Thank God It’s Thursday) block of programming, the political drama promises (and is already delivering) many an explosive twist and turn for its sixth season. Election, anyone?!

Watch a sneak peek preview of episode 12, titled ‘Mercy,’ below…

Destiny’s Child may no longer be an active act, but their sisterhood is ever enduring.

Beyonce and Michelle Williams recently linked up with Kelly Rowland in Los Angeles to support the latter’s ‘Whoa, Baby’ book signing.

It marks a rare sighting of the group, whose debut single was released 20 years ago next year.

It’s also the latest spotting of Bey, who is heavily pregnant with twins.

Clearly proving that her predicament isn’t denting her style, she went on to share the fine, fresh, fierce shots below…

We can’t be the only ones hoping (and praying) the ladies cook up something to mark their 20th anniversary?!

It was the dragging heard ’round the world.

Earlier today, R&B firecracker K. Michelle popped ALL THE WAY OFF on comedienne/‘The Real’ hostess Loni Love and ‘The Breakfast Club’ DJ Angela Yee for raising the topic of Yee’s year-old heated interview with the ‘Can’t Raise a Man’ singer.  A heated interview, mind you, that saw Michelle also tear into Yee at that time as well.

The R&B songstress made it well known on Twitter today that she was not in favor of being discussed in her absence and launched a scathing verbal attack against the two parties involved.

See ALL of the exchange inside if you missed any of the action, including the clip that set K. off:
