Beyonce‘s a grown woman now, and on the full version of her new track, she’s telling us exactly how and why.  Check out the complete “Grown Woman” song that just leaked inside….

In the full version of the track she used for her newest Pepsi commercial, Beyonce’s singing about putting it down like a “Grown Woman.” The beat was produced by Timbaland and co-written by The Dream, so it’s the familiar Independent woman ish-talking to an uptempo beat we’ve come to expect from Bey. Feast your ears on the dance-heavy track, complete with a Latin featurette below.

Does she run this?

How cute!  Beyonce just uploaded a pic of her baby girl Blue Ivy Carter in her own Mrs. Carter Show tour director’s chair.  Check the cuteness inside, plus more presonal pics of the Carters in Cuba, plus Auntie Solange rocking the pages of the June 2013 issue of InSTYLE magazine…

Right before the start of the Mrs. Carter Show World Tour, Beyonce posted a pic of her daughter in her official mini-me B.I.C. chair.  Now she’s uploaded a pic of B.I.C. in cute ponytails and a tutu skirt taking her place backstage recently.

Bey, who’s still embroiled in a pregnancy controversy about IS SHE or IS SHE NOT expecting again, was spotted arriving into the south of France with her hubby Jay, sis Solange and Solo’s boyfriend Alan today.  But it didn’t stop Mrs. C. from uploading more personal Cubano trip pics from last month to her Tumblr:

Cute.

And Solange has been killing the fashion shoot game recently.  From her insanely hot recent COMPLEX magazine spread to now, her own spread in June 2013 issue of InSTYLE magazine, she’s indeed becoming THE go-to fashionista in the game.

She’s rocking her fave designers like Marni, Miu Miu, Peter Pilotto and Chloe in the spread.  Check it:

This is so her.  Mixing prints, shift dresses, bold colors and a vintage yet sexy vibe.  Loves it.

Rapper Jay-Z has spoken out (sorta) about rumors of Beyonce’s pregnancy…and he’s denying it.  Find out what he allegedly said inside and why we think the pregnancy rumors were started…

For the past few days, the world has been flushed with gossip about pop superstar Beyonce expecting her second child.  The news went mainstream when E! News reported the pregnancy as the next best thing to FACT.  Though E! news is considered a VERY reliable news outlets by EVERYONE, but according to Jay apparently, the news is NOT a fact.

Over the weekend, Ebro (the famed station manager of NYC’s Hot 97) went on record saying that he received an email from Jay-Z denying the pregnancy.  On air, he read Jay-Z’s email saying,  “It’s not true. The news is worse than blogs.”  Of course, this could “potentially” have come from someone else, but because Jay-Z and Ebro have had a close relationship for over a decade…we’ll take Ebro’s word for it.

But here’s the other issue…why would E! News report something which “might” not be true?  We have our own suspicions. 

You’ll recall that In Touch Weekly printed a potentially embarrassing cover story about Kanye West’s sexuality a few days ago.  The tabloid claimed he is in a gay relationship with Riccardo Ticsci…and we passed on posting the story since we’ve heard that rumor for years now with no credible confirmations.  But with mainstream tabloids posting it now, this could possibly threaten that Kardashian throne (we all know the concoction of the Kardashians is E!’s biggest cash cow).  So, we think it’s odd that the rumor of Bey’s second child came out RIGHT AFTER the In Touch article. 

We’ve all seen how Olivia Pope mastered the art of “changing the conversation” on “Scandal” and you’ll notice that we’re not talking about Kanye’s sexuality anymore.  We might mention his SNL rant, but his relationship with Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci is old news. Why?  Beyonce MIGHT BE PREGNANT!  But jeopardizing your credibility is a serious length to go to just to play Captain Save A Baby Mama for Kim K.

As far as E! News goes….they have not printed a retraction and their

There were parties galore this weekend.  And we’ve got all the pics of two from Atlanta to NYC.  Check out Frank Ski‘s birthday bash down in the ATL, plus NFL baller Plaxico Burress launching his own clothing collection with his wife Tiffany front and center inside..

Former V103 host Frank Ski had all his celeb friends over to his restaurant to celebrate his birthday this weekend.  And Keshia Knight Pulliam kept it cute in a purple cocktail dress, her Chanel purse and nude pumps.

Lisa Wu was there too.  Is something going on with her these days?   Something seems a bit…off.  Just askin’….

Keshia also kicked it with V103 host Big Tigger.

Tameka Raymond was there and posed it up with Frank Ski’s wife Tanya.

Warren Sapp made sure to throw up the Yo to rep his Frat.

Jazze Pha and his crew were there.

So was actor Michael Jai White.

And Jeezy kicked it with radio personality Rashan Ali.

Over in NYC, Plaxico Burress celebrated the official launch of his new menswear accessories line, The Plaxico Burress Collection, at the XVI Lounge in Manhattan:
 

He arrived with his wife Tiffany who stood by him through his entire stint in jail and played the ultra supportive wife.

Tiff also popped up with her sister and she hit the carpet to show off her jewels.  Pretty.

Plaxico showed off his menswear collection for the party guests.

His publicist BJ Coleman was on hand and posed it up with former “BBW” star Meeka Claxton.

She looked cute in leather shorts.

Plax showed off his socks with stylist Phillip Bloch.

Fab times all around.

Singer Marques Houston was spotted out on a date night with his girlfriend Marlena yesterday in L.A.  Check out pics of the twosome all cuddled up inside…

Yes, Marques Houston is still making music these days.  And the former Immature/IMX group member released his new single “Speechless” recently off his upcoming Famous album dropping this summer.

But he took a break from his musical comeback attempt last night to take his girlfriend, fashion interestee (our name for the endless chicks who call themselves stylists but have no actual clients to show for it) Marlena Campbell, out to Mr. Chow for dinner.

  

The two held hands and got all hugged up while waiting outside.

And they seem to be extra close–traveling on vacays together and spending weekends with his fam (they hit up his brother Michael’s wedding together recently):

Well isn’t that special….

Solange Knowles is still partying it up in Cannes after her stunning Great Gatsby premiere appearance last week.  Check her pics, plus actor Gary Dourdan flirting it up on the French Riviera…

Friday night, Solange hit up the Belvedere Vodka ‘Walks Its Way’ Into Cannes party at the VIP Room.  Rocking a gorgeous printed silk blazer from Roberto Cavalli’s Spring 2013 collection and matching wide leg trousers, the fashionista kept it cool while living it up.

And she even took some time out her busy performance/party schedule to co-sign Kanye West‘s saying, “New Slaves. You damn right, Kanye.”

And on Wednesday night, she also performed at Hotel Martinez at the Chopard Trophy Ceremony at the 66th Cannes Film Festival in this cute shortsuit:
 

Love it.

Elsewhere in Cannes, actor Gary Dourdan was spotted flirting with french actress Zoe Flelix at Eden Roc:

 

Oh Gary…

He has a few movies in the works.  But if Jumping the Broom actually does get a sequel, we’re hoping he returns as that sexy chef again….

Mr. West had a lot to scream off his chest Saturday night on ‘SNL”. As the musical guest for the fifth time, Kanye debuted a brand new track called “Black Skinhead” and his other new track “New Slaves.”

Check out both of Kanye’s rock-style performances where he’s bringing his social consciousness to the world, plus his new album artwork for Yeezus….

‘Ye debuted an interesting track called “Black Skinhead” on “SNL”.  And through all of the screaming and slight auto-tune, we could tell he was saying some powerful ish.  While images of fire, political slogans, advertisements and more played in the background (one said “Not For Sale”), Kanye was on 100 living the crowd a rock-style performance.

And if you’re thinking that all dude needed was black nails and lipstick and we could have mistaken him for Marilyn Manson for that performance, you’re not too far off.  The music reportedly sampled a Marilyn Manson song.  Check out his performance of “Black Skinhead” above.

By the way, Virgil (Kanye’s right hand) posted the lyrics to the track saying Kanye literally wrote “Black Skinhead” minutes before his performance. Luckily the network let him perform that piece on live TV (y’all know they like to know what they’re getting before something airs live).

And here’s his other performance from the night, “New Slaves.” This performance comes one day after Kanye showed the visuals for the track guerrilla style in 66 cities around the country….projected against buildings. 

Your thoughts? Scary genius…or just scary?

According to his girlfriend Kim Kardashian’s latest Instagram pic, the Chi-Town native’s upcoming album is called Yeezus (of course) and will be released June 18th.  Kim posted the album artwork below saying, “#Yeezus #RedYeezy’s #SNL #Tonight #NewSlaves #YeezySeason #Donda #June18″  

Well….

Chris Brown was spotted out during a rehearsal break yesterday in L.A.   But it’s his tweet to his ex Karrueche Tran that has everybody talking.  Check out what’s going down inside….

While Karrueche was busy posting pics of herself in her undies (and reposting that pic of her bare ass in Breezy’s face from last year) and having cupcakes and birthday cake with friends, her ex Chris brown sent her a cute tweet.  And she responded with love:

Hmmm.  Rihanna was busy in NYC seemingly unbothered by the breakup and Chris’ new tweets to Kae.  And that’s a good thing.

Kae partied it up in Atlanta at Vanquish the other night to kick off her b-day celebrations:

And she hosting her own party tonight in L.A. at Toxic.

Meanwhile, Chris is busy rehearsing away for the 2013 Billboard Music Awards going down Sunday night.  And he posted a few inside flicks to his new website:

 

Get ready…
