Celebs Out & About: Rihanna at Superbowl Rehearsals
Superstar Diva Rihanna ran through rehearsals at Miami’s Superbowl yesterday with this ornamental modified brass knuckle/sword/mic holder thingy.
It looks dangerous. Maybe RiRi is sending out a subliminal message to her male suitors since she claims she’s now single.
She looks hawt even when she’s dressed down and casual!
LOVE the shoes!

White Writer Calls Beyonce ‘A Sell Out To Her People’
As you know, former Destiny’s Child singer Beyonce, made history when she won 6 Grammy’s last weekend. But the next day, all the media could talk about was Taylor Swift’s 4 Grammy wins which prompted Bey’s sister Solange to go on a Twitter rant criticizing the media.
Well, one media outlet struck back, although not directly at Solange.
An Irish journalist referred to Beyonce as a “sell out to her people” in an article published today. The writer for the Irish Independent, who describes himself as “a white, 30-something Irish bloke,” wrote, “in fairness, some of her songs are infuriatingly catchy, [but] let’s get real — we’re not exactly talking about Ella Fitzgerald here.”
Ouch!
It’s been apparent for some time now that Beyonce’s star is fading. Bey’s camp began feeling the heat as more and more mainstream blogs called for her to step away from the light. Beyonce seemed to concede to their demands when she announced she would take a break from the industry last month. But we’re still waiting for her to leave.

Trey Song Covers Jet Magazine’s 1st Redesigned Cover
JET magazine has revamped its cover with an entirely new logo to go along with the times and to draw a new, younger readership to the mag.
So the editors decided to put R&B singer Trey Song (with his trademark pursed lips) on the first cover in an attempt to attract new readers. But was this a good idea? We all know the majority of Trey’s fans are broke and jobless or his album would have gone gold by now, right? Didn’t he drop his album last Summer?
Anyway, according to the SunTimes website, “The inaugural Feb. 15 issue, on newsstands Feb. 8, is described as “the most sweeping evolution of its iconic brand [JET] in the company’s history.”
“Given the evolving landscape for the media, we thought now is a good time to re-establish our standing in the industry,” Mira Lowe, JET’s editor in chief, said Tuesday. “We want to maintain our leadership position in the marketplace. . . . We’re looking to appeal to a broader audience, including younger readers as well as our core readers.”
Johnson Publishing, which owns JET and EBONY mags hasn’t responded to published reports that they are seeking a new buyer for the historically black publications. Newsweek magazine wrote an article detailing EBONY‘s declining readership and loss in ad revenues that is now going to online media.
D-List Cat Fight: Poprah Goes In On Danger

Chelsea Lately Calls Beyonce Out Again; Attacks Beyonce’s Stans
Comedienne Chelsea Lately made fun of Beyonce’s Stans last night after they came for her neck on Twitter.com. Her Stans were insulted because Chelsea pointed out how dumb Beyonce looked on the GRAMMYS last weekend.
My favorite line from this video is when Chelsea says, “she said she was going to take a break, take a break bitch!” LOL!!
Celebs Out & About
Troubled rapper Lil Wayne is featured on the February cover of Rolling Stone magazine with the appropriate subheading ‘LIL WAYNE GOES TO JAIL’. Wayne pled guilty to federal gun charges back in October. His tatted up bod will become property of the U.S. government when he reports to prison next week. I’m sure prison officials will have fun documenting and diagraming every single tat on Wayne’s skin.
Inmates have unusual bonding rituals including drawing tattoos on each other using whatever tools or writing instruments they have handy. As you can see, Wayne has no room on his bod for any more prison tats.
