For many, Beyonce‘s journey thus far has been a moving story to watch.

From her days as Destiny’s Child ring leader, her unforgettable ascent to global stardom and now the joys of motherhood.

Now, nine months after the latter began, she has taken to Anderson Cooper’s hit series ‘Anderson Live‘ to dish on her ever changing life.

Revealing, that she has fallen in love with being a mother.

Nothing, absolutely nothing can take away from Mariah Carey‘s impact on Pop culture, standing as one of the greatest vocalists of all time.

However, much like Britney‘s will to dance and Lil Kim‘s chances of landing #1 single in this reality, Ol Mimi’s voice as we once knew is no more… for one reason or the other.

So, after proving that fact with a so so performance last week’s NFL kick off in NYC, the diva took to Cafe Carlyle  to redeem herself by way of classic Jazz standards.

Standards, which saw Mariah deliver a tolerable performance for the first time in a long time.

Ever keen for attention, Rihanna sent the net aflutter this morning with a shot of her latest tattoo.

Fresh from performing at the Paralympics in London last night, the 24 year old unveiled her latest ink job on her always-active Instagram account.

Goddess Isis, as she christened her, sits in quite the interesting position and is a tribute to her recently departed Grandmother, “GranGran Dolly”…..

It goes without saying that the model’s body is hers, so on and so forth. We just wish she’d put a fraction of the time she puts into  fishing for photo opps into her actual craft.

I mean punchlines aside, she has actually made strides as a performer. Yet seven years in, those strides could easily have been made within seven months. Put simply, the hunger to better her artistic self seems low on her “to do list”. And until it rises, she’ll have to keep churning out an album a year and singles a plenty to stay “relevant”. Why? The mediocrity of her everything has birthed no (real) lasting “moments” musically. Everything is so geared towards “today” vs what could be her legacy “tomorrow”. Had the Madonna‘s and Janet‘s adopted the same mentality, they’d have burned out before being able to p-e-r-f-o-r-m into their 40’s and 50’s.

Anyway, enough of my rambling…

If we’re keeping it all the way real, Ne-Yo has never been a stranger to scoring #1 singles.

However, despite sitting atop many a global chart over the years, we’re pretty sure he won’t be taking his latest feat lightly. For today, he has scored his fifth UK #1 single with the smash hit single ‘Let Me Love You‘.

Good news below…

Looks like those who can’t get enough of ‘Crazy’ crooner Cee Lo Green will have to make more room in their schedule for the eclectic singer.

For reports have surfaced indicating that the plus sized star, already readying a new album and occupying a seat on NBC‘s hit reality talent series ‘The Voice’, is now teaming with the broadcast network for a new ‘family sitcom’.

The yet titled project is said to be loosely based on his own life and the trials of balancing his hot career and home life.  But, before fans start setting their DVRs for the comedy (with no tentative release date), they can catch Mr. Green on the big screen in the 3-D animation ”Hotel Transylvania” (due in theaters September 28th).
