HOOPLA ON THE CARTERS, MIMI, LEONA, & TYRA
Beyonce Knowles and her new husband Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter were seen front row with all smiles at the Houston Rockets game last night. The pair have yet to confirm or deny their April 4th nuptials. Am I the only one who's convinced that their matching IV tats happen to be a good thing after all? If you'll notice, the Carters (as I'm calling them) do not have on their wedding ring at the event. But that's just how Beyonce and Jay-Z keeps their relationship private. In related news, Forbes named Beyonce and Jay-Z the richest couple.
Mariah Carey graced the upcoming cover issue of "Jet" magazine. The accompanying headline on the urban publication is in reference to Mariah's 18th number one single "Touch My Body". According to various published reports, Mariah's shooting the video treatment for her second single, "Bye Bye" with a cameo from Nick Cannon. Courtesy of Mariah Daily Journal, check out this sneak preview of Mariah's appearance on "Oprah" here.
Leona Lewis of the record breaking ballad, "Bleeding Love" appeared on the "Tyra Banks Show". Leona comes across as a shy person as mentioned in a recent Cosmo UK interview but Tyra always does a great job of bringing out the best of her guests. Remember when Tyra interview a notoriously shy Janet Jackson not too long ago? Exactly!
The episode will air on April 17th with Leona performing of course. The pressure is on Leona to match her UK Billboard success on the American music charts with her debut, "Spirit". So expect Leona to continue on her promotional grind in the coming weeks...
In related news, Tyra recently celebrated a career achievement. The former model's daytime talk show has air over 500 episodes and ONTD has the hoopla on that tidbit.
