Undeterred by the backlash that greeted his last lavish showing, 50 Cent is still keen to show that he’s still making it rain – even if his career isn’t.

Taking to his trusty Twitter account, the rapper – real name Curtis Jackson – tweeted the shots of him and his green. Yet, this time, was keen to show that it wasn’t to make folk green with envy.

Of the money (which he says he won betting on Sunday’s 49’ers game), he wrote:

“Just watched a 500,000 dollar foot ball game get on my level, I’m giving this money to my nana she gonna faint LMAO all she do is go to the church”.

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve heard anything fro R&B trier Omarion.

The 27 year old’s B2K exit saw him on a seeming fast-track to solo superstardom, however poor album sales led to waning interest, led to dodgy record deals, led to his current predicament. Not to mention the drama which has plagued the entire B2K clan over the last few years.

Hoping to reverse his fortunes, the singer has teamed up with the Nervo Twins (the Australian sisters most notable for co-writing Kelly Rowland‘s ‘When Love Takes Over’). Together they’ve conjured up ‘Army’.

Can it be the comeback his career is so thirsty for? You be the judge after the jump…

Though boasting a nearly 30 year career that marched many-a-milestone and influenced multiple generations of fans and wannabes, it’s no secret that the heavily reported highs and lows of a certain Whitney Houston would be eyed as the perfect ingredients for a ‘trials, tragedy, and triumph’ type of film.  And while actress Meagan Good made headlines this time last year for her desire to portray the multioctave songbird in a biographical piece, she may have to wait in line as another ‘The Game’ star is possibly moving into play – Brandy.

As many fans of both divas already know, Miss Norwood has long touted Houston as an idol and influence – obviously helping shape her younger sound.  Now, if imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, B-Rocka is looking to render her appreciation in a new way it seems:

‘Don’t Wanna Go Home’ hitmaker Jason Derulo has been considerably low key since suffering a critical neck injury a few weeks ago, reportedly leaving him confined to a neck brace for the next few months.  However, in seemingly high spirits, the high octane performer was snapped on the set of a commercial shot by formerly rumored girlfriend Jordin Sparks recently.

The outing marks the first time Derulo has been seen in public since the fracture incident that almost left him paralyzed, forcing him to cancel his ‘Future History’ world tour.  No word on if the ‘Whatcha Say’ singer is looking to reschedule the dates.

In related news, Sparks and Derulo’s ‘It Girl’ co-star Tika Sumter join pop icon Whitney Houston for the highly anticipated 70s musical remake ‘Sparkle’.  Boasting soundtrack production by hitmaker R. Kelly and also starring Cee Lo Green and Derek Luke, the cinematic showing is set to shine in theaters on August 10th.  Get a peek on set here.

‘Me & U’ whisperer Cassie is ready to blast her 2012 off with a bang!  In such stride, recent weeks have seen the model-with-a-mic drop by many outlets teasing her soon to surface offerings including a lengthy trailer of ‘King Of Hearts’ – the first single from her forthcoming LP.  Now titled ‘The Seductress’, the serially delayed set has been over 5 years in the making.

But, much to fan delight, 2012 is set to see Puffy’s puppet Ms. Ventura showcase her non-bedroom related talents once again.  While some followers of the songstress have grown weary in anticipation of the full view for the album’s lead visual (as its trailer debuted over a month ago), this weekend saw Cassie take to Twitter to tease its arrival:

We will hold our judgment until the clip is revealed in its entirety.  But chances are, as the trailer has already revealed, this Laurie Ann Gibson choreographed clip may be best viewed on mute.

Appears the extensive promotional push of Jennifer Hudson‘s latest venture ‘I Got This’ has paid off as reports have surfaced the Grammy/Academy Award winner is now a best selling author.  Landing at number 8 on the New York Times best sellers listing, ‘Got’ marks her first trek on the tally.

Still lining up dates for more appearances for the book, Hudson’s promo grind will soon switch gears as her movies ‘Winnie’ and ‘The Three Stooges’ are both slated for 2012 releases.

Kudos are certainly in order for the songbird. See snapshots of the diva in Dallas earlier in the week where she was presented with a congratulatory cake for her achievement:

R&B eccentric Solange has seemingly found as much favor in her fashions as she has in her music over recent years.  A nod to such would be the youngest Knowles’ feature in February’s ‘InStyle’ magazine.

Maybe mute on the musical tip (until her new album drops later this year), Solo has certainly been making much noise through her colorful ensembles as evidenced by her stunning threads at Milan’s fashion week recently.

In an article that also sees the songstress/DJ dishing about new niece Baby Blue, get into these snaps of Solange below:
