After Tyra Banks was forced to reprimand a cycle 21 contestant on ‘America’s Next Top Model’ for taking a seemingly homophobic shot at a fellow model, the star has seen the hit show bake a fresh batch of controversy.

For, after public votes saw her return to the competition after being eliminated by Banks and her current lineup of judges, model Chantelle Brown Young has blasted the show’s on-screen creative director Yu Tsai for calling her a panda.

Her problem with the nickname? Its supposed reference to her rare skin condition, Vitiligo.

How she responded? Peep a preview of tonight’s episode of ‘Top Model‘ to find out below…

After a long career starring in Black cinema, LisaRaye McCoy is gearing up to make her directorial debut in a movie which focusses on a topic still pertinent to that audience: skin bleaching.

Aptly titled ‘Skinned’, the indie flick (which McCoy also stars in) centres on skin bleaching, colourism and the issues that arise. Ghanian star Van Vicker plays an African businessman who prefers “light-skinned” women, and unknowingly marries a “Black” woman who has bleached her skin. She has no childhood pictures of herself and lies she has vitiligo, and can’t bear children because of her secret.

Fifth Harmony lived up to their name on Access Hollywood this week.

Normani, Dinah, Ally, Lauren, and Camila did away with the slick production on their performance of new single ‘Sledgehammer’ and instead served up an acoustic version of the track.

Here at TGJ, we have time aplenty for any act who can deliver dynamite vocals and work a stage. As such, 5H are after our hearts and coins – and are succeeding in the process.

Peep their performance below…

She did that!

And by “that”, we mean launch a brand new clothing line.

Tamar Braxton‘s aptly titled fashion range, the ‘Tamar Collection’, opened its digital doors today and surprisingly features more than the previously reported fan-apparel.

The singer, reality star, and TV host is selling branded dresses, shoes, skirts, jumpsuits, and more at as part of the line – which debuts ahead of her new studio album (due next year).

Welcome, once again, to TGJ Replay.

Designed much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ features, ‘Replay’ is That Grape Juice‘s newest retrospective segment – a written quest, if you will, to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday.

Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase entire albums (and eras) from a library of pop and Urban pop music hits.  As this week marks the 10th anniversary of the ultimate Destiny’s Child album ‘Destiny Fulfilled,’ we thought it only fitting to cater our latest foray down memory lane to one of the best-selling girl groups in history.

Get reacquainted with their final full length studio album below:
