Let’s be honest.

By way of the supposed delay of her fifth studio album, there’s been some effort by some misinformed parties to paint Beyonce as an act way past her prime…no longer the commercial force she ‘used to be’.

Unfortunately, much like a open handed slap to an unsuspecting face, new facts and figures pulled from her sold out ‘Mrs.Carter Show’ are to set to shock these naysayers today…in ways they could have never imagine.

…and Robin Thicke‘s winning streak continues!

Peep Pop siren Shakira heating up Elle magazine’s July 2013 cover.

The Voice coach and new mother looks all sorts of stunning in her accompanying shoot which is being rolled out ahead of her return to the charts. A recent Roc Nation signee, reliable word tells us the singer’s new material is nigh.

For now, though, check out more snaps below…

Music is our mainstay here at That Grape Juice, but we love us some TV too! Random, we know, but one of our favorite shows on the box right now is Oxygen’s I’m Having Their Baby and it premieres TONIGHT, 6/12 at 10/9c.

Unlike some of the “messier” shows that center on similar subject matter, this series tackles the topic of adoption with a degree of realism that makes for an even more compelling watch.

With many of our other must-see shows on hiatus (see: The Face and America’s Got Talent), the season 2 premiere of I’m Having Their Baby this evening has us all sorts of amped!

To celebrate the show’s return to the small screen, we want you to watch with us and let us know what you think of the premiere on Twitter OR Facebook. Because we’re in a giving mood; we have a $50.00 gift card to present to one lucky winner!

Check out the Season 2 trailer here:

With that said, be sure to tune into the season 2 premiere of I’m Having Their Baby tonight at 10/9c!

June 30th will see the BET Awards 2013 air live from LA’s Nokia Theatre!

Before that however, the ever impressive award ceremony will kick off the BET Experience- which will see the company put on a number of events all geared towards building momentum for the main show.

From parties, seminars, film screenings and a live airing of ‘106 & Park’, there’s no doubt the Experience will stand as one of the strongest highlights of the Entertainment year.

Only right then, that they enlist some of R&B’s brightest stars to join the celebration.

Think Elijah Blake.

Think Bridget Kelly.

Think Marsha Ambrosius.

The Queen of Pop embraced Brit Pop’s Rita Ora recently, posing it up in the snap you see above.

Pictured together after Madonna hand picked Rita to become the new face of her ‘Material Girl‘ line, the blonde bombshells are most likely to have caught up last week, when both attended Gucci‘s ‘Sound of Change‘ event- at London’s Twickenham Stadium!

Cop a gander of Kelly Rowland.

The R&B star, who’s juggling album promo and a judging stint on The X Factor USA, looked like a bag of money and good living as she posed it up backstage at a recent taping of the Fox show.

Ms. Kelly was joined by her mother and aunts, who were on hand to support the singer – who sources say is impressing on the panel, which also features Simon Cowell, Demi Lovato, and Paulina Rubio.

It’s not just the songbird’s family that are showing love, though. Bandmate and friend Beyonce took to her trusty Tumblr page to pen a note expressing her excitement about Rowland’s fourth studio LP ‘Talk A Good Game’ – due next Tuesday (June 18th).

Find out what Bey, who features on one of the album’s tracks, ‘You’ve Changed’, had to say after the jump…

As the US prepares for the release that is ‘Yeezus‘, its creator Kanye West made his way to the NYTimes for a tell all interview- jam packed with quotes that see him explain his on/off relationship with celebrity, preparing for fatherhood and his love for Kim Kardashian.

Monica may have a baby on board, but that isn’t halting her musical hustle.

Prior to announcing that she’s expecting, the married mother of two was snapped cooking up new material with R&B crooner Miguel. And it appears work is continuing on the project throughout her pregnancy.

Hitmaker and longtime collaborator Jermaine Dupri shared footage of himself in the studio with Mrs. Brown piecing together the follow-up to last year’s ‘New Life’, which didn’t deliver the sales many had hoped it would.

As “knockdowns” and “comebacks” go, Monica has had her fair share of both. Hence, we’re confident she’ll redeem herself commercially in the near future.

Watch her as she presses on with that process below…

 Khia touches down with a brand new single today- an infectious nursery rhyme like jam named ‘Got Me F’d Up‘.

Marking the latest release to come from the ‘Half on a Room‘ lyricist, the star wastes no time in capitalising on the hype it’ll eventually generate by throwing it straight to iTunes, where is now available to purchase.

We dare you not to fall in love with this one, below!
