It was a busy weekend while YBF celebs hit up events all over: Tyrese, Eve, and Luda hit up Hollywood Life’s 5th Annual Hollywood Style Awards at the Pacific Design Center in LA this weekend. The Cannons attended Andre Aggasi's Charity Benefit.  Really MiMi?  We're really still rocking bedazzled glue on tattoos? Jackie Long, Dollicia Bryan, Pooch Hall, and other folks hit up Nike's House of Hoops afterparty at the Sofitel Hotel in LA.  Jackie is such a cutie. And Victoria Rowell had an engagement party to celebrate her impending nuptials to artist Radcliffe Bailey.  And they took a pic with their kids.  Come back to "Y&R" Druscilla! Los more pics from these events when you read the rest...

Well guess who popped up in Paris for the Miami Heat's pre-season exhibition game?  You guessed it.  Gabby Union.  She was there to watch her man Dwyane Wade of course, and I hear it affected his game.  A Fox Sportscaster commented on live tv right after the game that the Heat's loss was probably a Tony Romo/Jessica Simpson effect since Gabby was at the game.  And like Jessica Simpson has been blamed for distracting Tony when she's at his games, causing the Cowboys to lose, the Sportscaster blamed Gabby the same way.  But it was all in fun though...I'm sure. But um, going all the way to France just to watch an exhibition game?  Damn.  I guess those two moving in together was only the beginning of the seriousness... UPDATE: The Miami Herald is reporting that Gabby was seated behind the Heat bench with Dwyane Wade's family for Thursday's game in Paris.  Meanwhile, a certain NBA wife tells TheYBF.com that Gabby is going to be with Dwyane and the team for a whole week while they play in both Paris and London.   And the plot thickens... Bow Wow and Michelle Williams walked across the Brooklyn Bridge yesterday for Bow's Walk Across America campaign: More pics of these two when you read the rest...

Jennifer Hudson was spotted hitting up LAX this week right after her performance on "Dancing With The Stars": I really wish she would have left that cream cape at the store.  Damn you Tangy Turban Talley! Tracee Ellis Ross rocked an interesting look at a friend's store opening in LA yesterday. And "Gossip Girl" chick Nicole Fiscella was spotted at the CFDA Fashion Council New Members Reception with her co-star Leighton Meester last night.  YBF chick indeed. More pics of these folks when you read the rest...

Ashanti is rocking the cover and spread of the December 08 issue of Today's Black Woman: Click the above two pics to read the article. Here's video of Nas & Kelis showing a united front in the face of those sex tape rumors. He and Kelis performed together yesterday in the NYC:

Miss Info copped video of the two and it sounds like they were throwing shade at those spreading the rumor about there being a sex tape of Kelis and another man floating around. Certain "media sources" say that have the goods and they're now shopping it around for 150k. But I have a feeling a real sex tape will still never appear online. And if it did, how would we know it was taken after The Joneses were married? Sounds suspect to me... Pics from the Smirnoff Experience with Nas and Pharrell when you read the rest...

Here's more pics of Russey Simmons' Miami vacay. And this time he brought the girls to the beach: Aww little Ming and Aoki Lee had some daddy daughter time at the beach. And T.I. was spotted leaving Beso restaurant in L.A.

Check out the ladies of The Secret Life Of Bees rocking the November cover of EBONY magazine: Queen Latifah, Jennifer Hudson, and Alicia Keys are looking gorgeous. ELLE Magazine's 15th Annual Women in Hollywood Tribute at the Four Seasons in L.A. yesterday: Halle and Gabe hit the red carpet as Halle was an honoree. By the way, she and Gabe said they are working on having more kids. Can't say I'm absolutely loving this dress on Halle, but she's fabulous nonetheless. Jenny Lopez looked fab as usual. And so did Kerry Washington in her Calvin Klein ribbed dress. And she rocked these two toned shoes I have literally fallen in love with. More pics when you read the rest...

In addition to being an award winning actor, author and scholar, Hill Harper is also regarded as a strong philanthropic force and a tireless political activist. A Magna Cum Laude graduate from Ivy League Brown University and recipient of graduate degrees in both law and public administration from Harvard, Hill is an avid supporter of good friend and former classmate Barack Obama, and is often called upon to chime in on relevant issues in current events and politics concerning Senator Obama.  And on his days off from shooting "CSI: NY", he’ll be participating in Obama surrogate activities each weekend until the election. That's hot. By the way, his new book Letters To A Young Sister is still killing the NY Times Best Sellers list.  It's a follow up to his national best-seller Letters To A Young Brother: MANifest Your Destiny.  And in it, Hill shares his powerful wisdom and draws on the advice of positive female role models in a courageous attempt to come to the aid of today’s young women, who are facing today’s tough issues including self-esteem, body image, racism, sexism, sex and dating, and turning their dreams into reality. Barack SO should have picked Hill as his running mate... And he also was previously on the Discover Martell national nobility tour. Mr. Harper was the tour’s anchor, traveling with the brand from city to city honoring African Americans around the country for their contributions to the community. Here he is with fellow honorees Holly Robinson Peete, Nia Long, and Luda: Pics of Zoe Saldana and Vanessa Williams when you read the rest...
