Actress Tracee Ellis Ross has a new man in her life. His name is Bu Thiam, the rising 20-something executive at Def Jam Records!
The two lovebirds showed up hand-in-hand at club Mansion in Atlanta on Saturday night. They walked into the club together and headed straight for their reserved VIP booth. My spies tell me Bu flew Tracee in for the weekend and lavished her with expensive trinkets. Bu spent thousands of dollars on bottles of champagne for his sweetie and their friends in the VIP.
As you know, Ellis, 38, is the daughter of legendary singer Diana Ross. In addition to being Akon’s brother, Bu is the VP of A&R at Def Jam. He has the distinction of A&R’ing the much-anticipated new album by Jay Z and Kanye West entitled Watch The Throne.
The CD is set to drop on August 2nd. My source at Def Jam tells me that those who’ve heard the album are already calling it a classic! I can’t wait to hear it!

I
me some Joan.
And her mama got ass too.
those eyes…look like he killed some people
They are an odd couple!! He doesn’t seem like her type and she looks like she is in it for the ride. This looks like one of those “might as well, I don’t have chit else to do dates.”
:wtf; happened to ole girl’s edges??????
She will forever be Joan in my book!! SN: I miss watching Girlfriends
OTB!!!
How are u heffa? 
but umm NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Tracee that nigga has Jaundice!!
he needs his bilirubin checked…ol yellow eyed frog..
Luscious them edges left her a while ago.
She can do no wrong…love me some Tracey Ellis Ross.
I hope she don’t act with him the way her character was on Girlfriends towards a men!!!
Well that is an unusual pairing if its true. Tracy doesn’t seem like the type of chica that would be into the club hopping music exec type.
What’s wrong with the bish behind them in pic one? She look like she got down sinder.
Joan and Bu? American Black Jewish meets the Mother Land? I am not sure yet.
That’s how you just leave me in the other post
hey sunrise !!!
@suga in response to the last post………
that’s what i thought the salad was beeing tossed
If he becomes the son in law of Diane…can he buy his new momma some new teeth since she never bothered? Watched “Double Platinum” the other night and hers been ghost-gray since she left Brewster projects. You can even see it sometimes in the throwback black and white photos. Bish teef been gray since 1955.
You ackin kinna funny

Oh that’s sweet. Love a hard working man. They’ll probably have cute kids.
I

Tracee is my bish! I love her hair!

Joan I was trying to catch her at Essence she was showing a sneak peak of her new TV which I have dubbed Cosby 2.0. Although I don’t think she in Malcom have chemistry I will tune in and try and support her new project.
I am not sure if they are a couple or just friends but time will tell I’m sure

Hi Outside!!!!
KDUB, you are so CRAZY, I saw DP yesterday on BET, and I just COULD NOT get past those heather grey tufussess….LOL..those tuffussess were the color of a swatch when you picking out a dress on the Newport News or Arden B website….
@Yall so glad to hear it
I love me some Joanne Clayton, will be looking out for that new series she’ll be starring in. I agree, she does look a little out of her element here, I’d feel the same way if I were to see Terry Joseph(soulfood series) in there. I think maybe it’s the characters they played………..I don’t know.

Wild Irish Rose. Mad Dog 20/20. Just look like he drank some shyt on a regular basis that will tear yo liver back.
I feel bad now b/c I bet he is a fun sweet dude (hangs head in shame and exits)
This brotha is DARK … with those yellow eyes … he look like a coke with lemon!
Ummm is being dark still considered a bad thing? Ijs

“with a$$ fat as Tracee Ross” (in my Yeezy voice)
I wonder did C-Webb know she was in ATL?

Tracee dated C Webb???
Tracee’s been in the A more than usual. I guess this explains it. She was at Justin’s one Friday night recently too… She has a great energy about herself.
Ty
Yeah Chris was with her, too at one point.
KK76
She might be in the A because (just a guess) her show may be filmed at Georgia Studios (arent all the BET non-reality show)?
Yes Tracee is in town filming
C Webb is my boo never knew abt him and Tracee but he was w/his wife last time my friend saw him out a few mths back. His wife is pretty.

Webber is married???
*Goes to bed to cry herself to sleep*
His convo must be good, that trumps alot. Seriously I am getting ‘Cool Friend Vibe’um… Hopefully
This is totally out of left field to me. My (friend in my head) Tracee is so pretty, I’m assuming Bu is brilliant and charming and has super white teeth to offset those mother of pearl eyes?
Love Tracee but I think shes just passing time with him oan how tall is he she looks taller then him even without the heels
awww they look like Simba & Scar from the Lion King. I <3 Tracee…
I am sooo tired of seeing the most ugliest people coupled up by someone THEY KNOW GOOD AND WELL would like NOT them if they did not have a large enough bank account. Tracy Ellis by no means would need a man to secure her future, but I can not see how waking up to him everyday would be a blissful life. Looks are not everything but they do count..just saying!
