Those ‘Fresh Prince Of Bel Air’ syndication checks may continue to line the pockets of the show’s stars 18 years after it wrapped, yet that hasn’t halted the hustle of Tatyana Ali.

The actress, who played loveable Ashley Banks on the hit sitcom, stopped by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 today.

There, she dished on her upcoming movie ‘November Rules’, as well new music. Perhaps, most interestingly though, the 35-year-old revealed that she was glad when ‘The Fresh Prince’ wrapped.

5,616,000.

The above, as Bruno Mars should already be aware of, is the number of units moved by his new album, ‘Unorthodox Jukebox’, worldwide.

It’s these sales figures, coupled with revenue pulled from its supporting tour and the star’s other lucrative ventures that have earned him a spot on Billboard‘s ‘Music’s Top 40 Money Makers 2014‘ list, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Beyonce, Rihanna and Taylor Swift!

Where the ‘Treasure’ holder ranked?

When not blazing stages, Beyonce lends her superstar brand to many a charitable effort.

Indeed, beyond the singer’s own #BeyGood initiative, Ban Bossy is the latest empowerment campaign the 32-year old is supporting.

Aimed at young girls, Ban promotes the idea of erasing of the word “bossy” when it comes to describing leadership potential in females. For, according to its manifesto:

“When a little boy asserts himself, he’s called a “leader.” Yet when a little girl does the same, she risks being branded “bossy.” Words like bossy send a message: don’t raise your hand or speak up. By middle school, girls are less interested in leading than boys—a trend that continues into adulthood. Together we can encourage girls to lead.

A TV commercial  for the powerful cause featuring King B was today placed in rotation. Check it out below…
