BRANDY

Platform. Launch. Action

Cassie and Ashanti, two R&B chicks would have been criticized for their singing abilities, showed up to Kanye' West's 30 birthday bash in high style.


Cassie opted for fuschia pink shirt-dress while Ashanti opted for a sequin top and a HOT LV bag! Cassie, after her 'live' performance of "Me & U" on BET, proved you can have a career off the hype on your myspace page. Ashanti proved with the right hip-hop producers, momanager and rapper behind you you can equally produced nothing but hits. Out of the two, I'm more so Ashanti's fan. My point is simply this---no amount of haters cannot deny the staying power of these two artists. Ashanti has a movie career to fall on while Cassie has a modelling/video honey career to fall back on. These ladies also know how to market themselves to ANY market! You can't knock Cassie and Ashanti's hustle.

One of my favorite R&B female singers Brandy (her last two albums got slept on, folks!) attended the Christie's Book & DVD release party with her $1 million plus selling sex tape king Ray J:

Rihanna has been all over the place lately and those appearances are not likely to stop anytime soon. LOL! I know my blog is pure Rihanna-saturation, but like I say I got to go with what's hot and right now Rih-Rih is the IT-Girl. Of course tomorrow it could be somebody else though but I highly doubt it, so we're just going to stick with what we have. It's no point complaining about her lack of singing talent or non-stage charisma because the girl is just going places, and the Ashanti petition a couple of years ago didn't impact the music industry into ensuring that talented singers get their shine, cos if that were the case, how come my girl Tamia hasn't blown up yet? All you need is to be pretty and put out catchy music and Rihanna definitely qualifies in that department. Anyway, it appears Rihanna is trying to fleece fellow R&B singer Amerie for the title of sexiest legs. This week, Rihanna was named 2007 Venus Breeze "Celebrity Legs of a Goddess":

During her stint in the UK, Beyonce was seen out and about in London with her cute Lil nephew Daniel Juelez Smith. In tow was Beyonce's younger sister Solange, her mama Tina, her cousin/assistant Angela Beyince and their minder. You see Beyonce with lil Daniel more times than the actual mother:

Kelly Rowland Gets Wet & Wild with King

Kelly graces the cover of King's June/July wet issue and I have to say she looks as gorgeous as ever but its still kinda boring since this is King Magazine we are talking about here I hope the scans inside make up for this. View behind the scene footage of the shoot at KING.COM.

R&B singer Brandy has broken her silence regarding the various 'wrongful death' lawsuits levelled against her. The complaints were made by the family members of a 38 year old woman -Awatef Aboudihaj- who died in a four-car collision on December 30th last year in LA - a collision they claim was caused by the singer.

You can call me sad if you want but I'm totally looking forwards to Big Brother 8 when it launches tomorrow night. I've been into BB ever since it first debuted 8 years ago. I'm just fascinated to see people from all walks of life and ages put together in one big social bubble either gelling OR verbally tearing each other apart. There is always some kind of culture clash going on as well as hierarchy-differences too. Some people that participate already come from wealthy backgrounds, and some are a lot less fortunate and are only in it for the money and fame (though it has already been proven that nobody really finds fame on BB other than that gobby loser Jade Goody, but usually, most BB contestants fade away into oblivion including the winners without even sustaining a high-profile celeb-filled career). If I were to do BB I would go only if Jade decided to reappear. That way I could punch her in the mouth and get myself an assault charge in the process. And to me it would be well worth it. As far as superiority is concerned, you get insecure people thinking: "Oh she thinks she's better than me, look how she talks, look at how she dresses" etc, some people are more sheltered, louder than others, confrontational, competitive whilst other groups in the house are a lot more reserved, grounded and quiet. It's annoying how every year they feel the need to put in two gays just to subject us to some homo-action - like yeah, we really want to see that. We want more characters like Nasty Nick Bates and "bottle-up-my vagina" Kinga (oh lawd, the rude but the extremely funny). So yeah, I'm going to put a dent in my healthy eating plan tomorrow night and will be in front of the TV with a bottle of Dr Pepper and a large packet of Cheeto's.

I KNEW IT! Last night, Jordin Sparks took the American Idol crown and beat out beatboxer Blake for the title. I mean, if she didn't win that would have been tragic and well, it's been no secret that at times American Idol is scammed but truly, I thought Jordin deserved to win. She is such a talented singer at just 17 years old. Here is the VERY moment Jordin found out she won that $1 million dollar recording contract:
