Kelly Rowland and a possible new male friend were seen outside Dolce nightclub. Dolce must be the place to hang at because Kelly's close friends Solange and Michelle were just there earlier this month. Kelly was also seen at the Maisha Africa charity gala with former Miss France Sonia Rolland.



Jada Pinkett Smith looked fresh and fab when she arrived for a taping of "Late Show with David Letterman" in a trendy pair of Yves Saint Laurent platforms, a black studded YSL skirt, and a one-shoulder Balenciage top. (Even Jennifer Lopez has a pair of these YSL pumps!) Jada (with her purple Zac Posen bag) was there to promote her new film, "The Women." In a recent MTV interview, Jada said she would like to play Michelle Obama in a biopic. "Pencil me in. I love Michelle [and] would play her any day." Can you see Jada as Michelle?

Chanel Iman and Ryan Leslie kept their new couple on the scene status at the Samsung's imagination icon series premiere event for Valentino. These two have been seen together quite often...but they're just friends for the moment.



Also at the Valentino event were Mary J Blige, Vivica A. Fox, and Kendu Isaacs. MJB wore a black snakeskin Valentino bow clutch with her red ruffle dress. FOOTCANDY.COM has Mary's clutch listed for $995 but NEIMANMARCUS.COM has the clutch in a metallic style for $895.


Tyra Banks celebrated her recent Harper's Bazaar cover gig with a party. Tyra was named as the top earning woman on TV with estimated $23 million. Fellow model/friend Heidi Klum ranked in as number 2 with $14 million. It must be nice to be Tyra Banks, huh?



John Legend and Andre 3000 dropped by MTV's "TRL" to premiere their new music video, "Green Light." John also visited BET's "106 & Park" to promote the new single and he also said vocals from Brandy and Kanye West are featured on his upcoming record, "Evolver." JOHN-LEGEND.NET recently posted up these new promotional photos by Nabil Elderkin of John for the new album.

Over at London's Hype Park, Pussycat Dolls lead vocalist Nicole Scherzinger (in Gucci Hollywood heels) attended Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday celebration with her close friend Lewis Hamilton.




Nicole and Lewis were spotted together last month after his racecar gig. So are these two just close friends or are they'officially' dating? (Help me out here, Chris!)

On the fashion tip, Nicole Scherzinger seems to get her style inspiration from a lace Dolce & Gabbana top (dress, lol!) made famous by Britney Spears and Jennifer Lopez back in 2001....



Anyhow Lewis had a run in with his famous ex-girlfriend Naomi Campbell at the event which you can check out in the photos below.

The 2008 MTV Movie Awards was jam packed by stars such as Rihanna, Chris Brown, Will Smith, Jennifer Hudson, Diddy, The Pussycat Dolls, and Meagan Good.




PCD were outfitted in D Squared. (One of their outfits also happens to be the very same Dsquared Spring 2008 outfit that Rihanna wore for her "COSMO" cover.) I like those YSL tribute sandals Melody has on.

Rihanna didn't walk the red carpet but she instead was seen side by side with her close friend Chris Brown during the awards ceremony. Chris joined Rihanna to sing "Cinderella" (re: "Umbrella" remix) at one of her "Glow In the Dark" tour stops and you can check out the footage here. (Chris is either smitten with Rihanna or he's one loyal male friend as he is not on the "Glow in the Dark" tour officially.)

Jennifer Hudson's current film, "Sex & The City" made over $55 million dollars in its opening weekend. (A sequel for the film based on the popular HBO series also has been talked about.)

Nicole Scherzinger and her close friend Grand Prix winner Lewis Hamilton were spotted holding hands in Monaco. Nicole and Lewis have claimed to the media that they are just friends. (Last year, Nicole and Lewis were romantically linked.)



Naomi Campbell attended the original 'it' girl Tamara Beckwith's birthday party at the Beach Blanket Babylon in London. In related news, Naomi was formally charged of police assault at Heathrow.

Jennifer Hudson, soon after the N.Y.C premiere of "Sex & The City", was seen outside the Hot 97 headquarters yesterday afternoon. Rumor has it that JHud is dating Punk.




Liya Kebede recently filmed a promotional AD campaign for Estee Lauder at Piccadilly Circus in London. Are you feeling her hairstyle?

Meagan Good was spotted outside Coco de Ville in West Hollywood. Meagan Good recently graced the June/July issue of "Upsplace" magazine where she talked about her image and boyfriend Thomas Jones.

Tyra Banks and her chic Azzedine Alaia waist-clinging belt can be seen on the June 1st cover of The New York Times Magazine...

“Her brand, like her trademark ‘tough but still smiling’ smile, is consistent in all her shows: serious about the frivolous; empathetic and empowering, and always, always aimed at young women, across all races. It’s girly TV with a punch”. [quote & photo via BROWNSISTA]

Usher and his Lanvin sneakers were seen outside Hot 97 studios in NYC. (He signed a copies of his CD for a few fans waiting outside for him.) Prior to his visit, he launched his partnership with Sony Ericsson. UPDATE: Folks have illegally downloaded Usher's "Here I Stand" album half a million times already. So I guess I'm the one individual that went out and purchase this album???!)




Solange's upcoming music video for her lead single, "I Decided" will finally have its BET premiere on June 5th. Solange updated the background image on her myspace page and I call the artwork artistic. With or without the questionable red paint, are you feeling this new artwork??!
