Fans of VH1’s hit show ‘Single Ladies’ will be devastated to learn that the scripted series has been cancelled.  Produced by Queen Latifah, the show – after two hit seasons on VH1 – saw its third season greeted with lukewarm response from viewers.

The music channel offered the following statement:

“We’ve been proud to deliver three seasons of the drama, romance and style that engaged viewers in each episode of “Single Ladies.” Although we’ve decided not to move forward with another season, we hope to work again with the talented cast, creatives and producers as well as our partners at Flavor Unit Entertainment in the near future. We also thank the show’s fans for their support since the premiere in 2011.”

Did ‘Naughty’ legend Chaka Khan bill ‘Blow’ beauty Beyonce a ‘b*tch’?

Unfortunately for that latter, the answer to that question remains in the air as fans of both continue to study a recent interview given by Khan to ‘Hollywood Today.’

For, upon arriving to support all ‘Essence Black Women in Hollywood’ had to offer, Chaka reportedly murmured the words “that b*tch” when the outlet’s interviewing journalist referenced Beyonce‘s jam ‘Flawless’ during a compliment he paid for.

Alas, if her words weren’t enough to shine a light on any ill feelings felt towards the star, her body language went a long way to do that for her…as can be seen in the footage waiting for you below…

The net has been roaring for the last day or so with mixed review of Snoop Lion’s Instagram-unveiling of freshly French manicured nails.

‘Magic’ maestro Robin Thicke’s act may be winning on the music front, but, as reports have revealed all week, the extent of his Midas touch stops there.  For, as fans know, the week brought with it news of his separation from wife/actress Paula Patton.

Just a day following the announcement, the Grammy-nominated crooner launched a crusade to win back the lady’s love.  The latest public plea for reconciliation came in the form of an on stage breakdown recently.

The star may have put on a brave face to resume his Stateside tour, but as the video below evidenced, that face only held up for so long:

Last year’s American Idol winner Candice Glover returned “home” last night.

The vocal powerhouse lived up to her billing, serving up a stirring rendition of ‘Cried’ – which is lifted from her debut album ‘Music Speaks’.

‘We Fall Down’, ‘Speak To My Heart’, and ‘Stand’ are just a few of the gospel titles imparted over the last two decades that continue to stand the test of time.  Gospel legend Donnie McClurkin, the critically acclaimed creator of all three tunes, boasts mastery of that very same test.

With radio, television, and music all lining his decorative resume, the Grammy winner continues to conquer many-a-media format. Then, just when fans thought he had no new ground to claim, McClurkin revealed news of a ‘Duets’ album (in stores March 4th).

It’s the collaboration few expected, yet it’s one we’re anticipating in earnest.

Chris Brown sent the net into a flutter moments ago when he shared the shot above of him rehearsing Urban-Pop princess Ariana Grande.

No further details have been divulged, however with both working on respective albums, it’s fair to say we’ll likely be receiving official announcements eminently.
