Can’t we all just get along?

‘Drop It Like It’s Hot’ hitmaker Snoop Dogg continues to drop profanity-laden attacks against Aussie rapstress Iggy Azalea after she responded to his Instagram diss.

The back-and-forth Twitter tussle (which is on its third day now) is now seeing Azalea’s NBA boyfriend, Nick Young, jump in to defend his lady love. This, of course, after the Doggfather uploaded an offensive video to Instagram labeling the ‘Fancy’ rapper a ‘c*nt.’

That’s not all he said.  Brace your ears below:

Christina Aguilera is gearing up to don her stilettos to strut the comeback trail.

The dynamite diva, who gave birth to daughter Summer Rain in August, saw her return to the spotlight announced yesterday when it was confirmed that she’s heading back to The Voice for its eighth season.

It appears the vocal powerhouse will be bringing more than her expertise to the table too. See what we mean below…

In 2001, ‘Sell Your Dope’ rapper Afroman topped the UK Singles Chart with the comedic number ‘Because I Got High.‘

In 2014, he returns to Pop’s scene with the number, remixing it to raise support for the legalisation of marijuana, doing so in partnership with in partnership with the weed-friendly organisation Norml and the “Yelp of weed dispensaries,” Weedmaps.

How this version differs from the original?

‘Happy’ hitmaker Pharrell Williams continues to ride the wave of success this year.

Fresh from nabbing five nominations at the American Music Awards 2014, the Neptunes frontman appears a-front of the November (Men’s) issue of EBONY magazine.

Interestingly (and aptly given target of publication), the star also gushed about his love for Black women in response to the backlash he received from some for not featuring a darker skinned female on the cover for his album ‘G.I.R.L’.

“I love Black women. If you don’t think I love Black women, then you don’t understand me. I have obsessed over Black women since the days of Jayne Kennedy, Beverly Peele and Roshumba Williams. Those are the women I daydreamed about growing up.”

The November issue of EBONY is on newsstands now.

Your thoughts?

As “real” goes, few come realer than NeNe Leakes.

It’s apt, then, that the reality star stopped by ‘The Real’ today to dish on the upcoming seventh season of ‘The Real Housewives Of Atlanta’.

Ever on a hustle, feisty NeNe also plugged her new Home Shopping Network clothing line, which she bills as “affordable luxury.”

Controversy has been stalking Phaedra Parks ever since husband Apollo Nida was convicted for fraud. And yet, even during his sentencing (which saw him locked away for eight years), the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ star has maintained a measured silence.

Until now.

The mother-of-two stopped by the Ellen today and effectively spilled all.

She finally upped the volume on her reaction to Nida’s dealing and the effect on their children. Most potently, Parks confirmed that she is indeed divorcing her hubby.

November 3rd brings with it the premiere of K. Michelle‘s eagerly anticipated new VH1 reality show ‘K. Michelle: My Life’.

Aptly titled, the series will follow the R&B songbird as she navigates through her new beginnings in New York City.

The show will also have an explicit focus on the recording of the singer’s new album, the follow-up to last year’s debut effort ‘Rebellious Soul’.

Already buzzed, our anticipation levels were sent sky-high when we peeped the newly released teaser. Check out the sneak peek below…

Next week sees Nicole Scherzinger‘s second studio album, ‘Big Fat Lie‘, land in stores.

Currently being marketed to Europe, there’s no word yet on when (or if) the Sony Music set will arrive Stateside. Although, with the former Pussycat Doll recently inking a deal with Sony subsidiary Epic (under stewardship of L.A. Reid), it’s safe to expect a US roll-out of sorts soon.

In the meanwhile, to amplify anticipation, the star’s team have unzipped a preview of the entire album.

Listen to the sampler below and let us know what you think…

R&B singer Teairra Mari may have been enlisted to pull in viewing figures, but it would seem the lesser known ladies that are Masika Kalysha (above) and Nikki Mudarris have done a far better job at doing that for the show in which she stars in…’Love & Hip Hop Hollywood.’

For, after losing 190,000 viewers between the second and fourth episode of its first season, its fifth episode pulled in 2.39 million viewers when it touched on Monday night, making it the second highest viewed episode since its season premiere enjoyed the benefit of 2.80 million spectators on September 15th!

What changed? A shift in focus from a story line led by Mari and ‘Sexy Can I’ singer Ray J to Kalysha and Mudarris’ feud over fellow cast mate Jamal ‘Mally Mall’ Rashid, brought onto the Reality TV series as part of its recurring cast.

Will its episode six  fare just as well when it arrives on October 20th?

Roc Nation priori Rita Ora continues her flood of the media scape.

The talented singer, who was recently announced as a coach on The Voice UK, heats up the double cover of Teen Vogue‘s November 2014 issue.

Sporting DKNY (which she serves as a spokesmodel for), the ‘Black Widow’ belter looks all sorts of lush in the shoot, which serves as a prelude to the arrival of new music. As reported, Ora’s hotly anticipated sophomore album (which’ll also dub as her US debut arrives early next year).
