Kelly Rowland‘s glowing look and baggier ensembles of late have sparked strong speculation that she and husband Tim Witherspoon are expecting their first child together.

Fiercely private, the ‘Motivation’ maven has remained mum about about the rumors.

However, her latest Instagram post appears to be her way of addressing the chitter-chatter.

See what we mean below…

Hailed by many as today’s answer to the late Aaliyah, the R&B force that is Mila J puckers up and plants a kiss on Usher’s ‘Good Kisser.

Remixing the number as she works on her debut LP ‘MILA‘, her take on the jam swings by after she wrapped her Ty Dolla $ign-led touring venture and months before the release of Usher’s latest studio album…on which ‘Kisser‘ can be found.

Two years have passed since Monica last blessed the charts with new music.

However, it appears the R&B chanteuse is readying new material for serving sooner rather than later.

Early last month the mother of three shared a morsel of new music on Instagram. This week she returned to the platform to showcase more.

Though the song’s title wasn’t revealed, the cut previewed was produced by Mika Means and The Fat Boi.

Take a listen below…

Jennifer-Lopez-World-Cup

Following a statement from FIFA yesterday, it appeared Jennifer Lopez‘s team scored an own-goal yesterday by cancelling the diva’s performance at the World Cup Opening Ceremony.

After all, with new album ‘A.K.A’ due in stores next week, the global visibility alone is the kind of promotion most artists dream of.

Thankfully, it seems this is a memo Team J.Lo now understand. Because, in a sensational turn-around, they have confirmed that the stage blazer will indeed be living up to her billing and performing We Are One (Ole Ola) at the Brazilian extravaganza alongside Pitbull and Claudia Leitte.

Details below…

tlc-rihanna-2014

Over the course of their illustrious career, TLC have been no stranger to controversy.

Last week saw the group’s surviving members T-Boz and Chilli engulfed in exactly that after an interview with an Australian news outlet seemingly saw them “take aim” at Rihanna.

In the segment that aired, the Grammy winning duo supposedly slam the Bajan star for her barely-there outfits.

Naturally, the model-with-a-mic charged back, which subsequently encouraged her fans to do the same.

The result? An onslaught of online abuse aimed at TLC by RiRi’s Navy.

Clearly exhausted by the foolery, T-Boz and Chilli sat down with Yahoo Down Under to clarify their comments – which they insist were cleverly edited and had nothing to with Rihanna at all.

The situation in their words after the jump…

Jennifer Hudson certainly knows how to keep busy.

The power belter, who is currently prepping her BET Awards performance, headlined Saturday’s LA Pride.

A high profile event (which also saw performances from the likes of Danity Kane and Azealia Banks), the slot serves as a boost to the Grammy and Oscar winner’s campaign for her upcoming new album (due later this year).

Backed by a troop of dancers, watch J.Hud in action after the jump…

Stevie J is renown for bringing the ratchet flavored LOL’s on ‘Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta’. However, the reality star had little to laugh about this morning when he was arrested in Georgia.

The countdown is on.

July 9th brings with it the debut of Halle Berry‘s new CBS show ‘Extant’.

Already a critic’s favourite following the announcement of new shows for the 2015 TV season, the Steven Spielberg production looks set to hook viewers in too.

Billed as a Sci-Fi drama, the series centers on the life of Molly Wood (played by Berry).

After a 13 month stint in space, the astronaut returns…pregnant. What happens next has very real ramifications for Wood and for the whole of humanity.

We know we’ll be tuning in. Peep a freshly released teaser and let us know if you’ll be watching below…

Jermaine Dupri has had enough.

For months, the hitmaker has been the subject of a smear campaign by a sect of Mariah Carey fans disappointed in the  services he’s been providing for the singer since becoming her manager late last year.

Tensions appear to have come to a head in the wake of the dismal sales of Mimi’s new album ‘Me. I Am Mariah…The Elusive Chanteuse’ – which many see as an apt title given the LP’s vanishing act on the charts.

Fed up with the critique, JD – who has been instrumental in crafting many of Carey’s hits – penned an open letter.

See what he had to say below…

One week to go!

June 17th sees Jennifer Lopez unwrap her hotly anticipated tenth studio album ‘A.K.A’.

Preceded by singles ‘I Luh Ya Papi’ and ‘First Love’, the project has already whipped up ample excitement following a slew of high-profile performances – including American Idol and the 2014 Billboard Music Awards.

Having tasted the teasers J.Lo has given of her new jams, what about the other songs that’ll be joining them?

Well, wonder no more because snippets of the full LP have surfaced.

Really, though, what are you waiting for? Take a listen below…
