"Love And Hip-Hop" Season 2 Super Trailer

Looks like "Love & Hip-Hop" season 2 is going to be crazy. Yesterday, VH1 released the super trailer for the reality series. All I can say is just DRAMAAAAA!!! Where can I begin? Well, lets start with the fight that broke out between Chrissy (Jim Jones girlfriend/fiancee) and Kimbella (model and Juelez Santanna baby mama). During a conversation between some of the cast members, Kimbella revealed that she dated Fabolous three years ago, which was the same time Emily (Fabolous ex-girlfriend) was pregnant with Fab's son Johan. Well, maybe this is why Emily B decided to call it quits with Fabolous. In this season, Emily is single, on her own, and focusing on her career. However, she is still emotional from the break up, which leads her to drown herself in her work. 
So, the drama continues with CHRISSY. Seems like Mama Jones still has beef with her. She went to the extreme and recorded a track dissing Chrissy, and even made a video of her recording the song (WOWZERS)! The beef between these two ladies does not sit well with Jim. In the super trailer, Jim is seen having an emotional conversation with his mother, where he cries about Chrissy's and Mama Jones beef.
Now, let's switch gears. Olivia seems to be very emotional about her career this season. In one scene, both Olivia and her manager are seen tearing up because of labels and record execs not believing in her. Somaya is still on her grind as always. But looks like she and her manager Maurice aren't seeing eye to eye. Besides Kimbella, we do see another new face this season. Jim Jones manager Yandy is one of the newbies of the series. Seems like she's Mrs. Fix-it in season 2. Basically, she's the peacemaker.

Somaya Reece Puts "Love And Hip-Hop" Rumors To Rest/ "Love And Hip-Hop" Trailer

Yesterday, Bossip broke a story about VH1 hit reality series "Love And Hip-Hop." Supposedly, Somaya Reece was booted from the show and replaced by a model named Erica Mena. She is a Miami model and the former girlfriend of Terror Squad affiliate Raul Conde. A source told Bossip that Erica will be used to introduce a Miami spin off to "Love and Hip-Hop." The insider also said that Somaya was only going to make a few appearances on the show this season.
"Somaya did tape some episodes. I'm not sure at which point she was phased out and how much of her footage will be included, but she left the production team in a lurch. She told them she had a few ventures in the works, which would have given her a storyline on this new season. But as taping went on, it became obvious that she really didn't bring anything new to the table other than what she had going on last year, which we know wasn't much."
In addition to Erica, Teairra Mari is expected to be on the show as well.
"She's basically taking over Mashonda's role as Emily Bustamantes new best friend. Now that she officially single again, Tearria has basically become Emily's guide to the party life."
However, Somaya was not too pleased with this rumor. Earlier today, she met with her lawyers and her Publicist to shut down these rumors
"Meeting with my lawyers, & @MsKai_AspirePR this about to get really UGLY. Don't mess with the Davis Firm clients !!!!!!!
She later hinted that the rumor was cleared up via her twitter.

New Music Video: Beyonce "Love On Top"

Last week, we gave you a sneak peak of Beyonce's new video "Love On Top." Well, Bey finally released the official music video yesterday. She released the video after a month of half of her performance at the VMA's, where she revealed her pregnancy. King Bey got some inspiration from the 60's/70's Motown era and New Edition for this video.
In the beginning, Bey is rocking a short black one piece body suit with some high top shoes as she channels New Edition "If It Isn't Love" music video. She is seen doing choreography with male background singers/dancers as she sings as a front man. Beyonce continues the same format and transforms into the Motwon era. As she goes up an octave, she switches into a series of suit looks. She and the boys later rock gold-trimmed tuxedos when the spotlight comes out. Then the video ends with the diva and the boys wearing a black tuxedo tail suit.

The First Family Attend The Dr. Martin Luther King Memorial

Yesterday, a dedication ceremony took place in Washington D.C at the Washington Mall for the unveiling of the Dr. Martin Luther King Memorial. The ceremony was suppose to be held on the 48 year anniversary of the 1963 "I Have A Dream" speech on August 28th; however, it was postponed because of Hurricane Irene. Reverend Al Sharpton, actress Cicely Tyson, Diahann Carroll, U.S Representative John Lewis, Reverend Joseph Lowery, Andrew Young were amongst those who attended the event, while the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin, Mary Mary, Stevie Wonder, and others blessed the ceremony with their lovely vocals. Representative John Lewis spoke at the ceremony and reminisced on the walk in Washington 48 years ago.
"I'm the only one still around."
"He was arrested, jailed, beaten and constantly harassed. His home was bombed. He was stabbed. he suffered the slings and arrows of hate."
"Come and walk in my shoes. Dr. King is telling you that we have changed. We're better people. We're a better nation."
The first family (President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and their daughters) also attended the dedication ceremony.The president delivered a speech, where he reflected on progress our country has made since Dr. Martin Luther King's time, but we still have more work to do and face challenges today.
"Nearly 50 years after the March on Washington, our work - Dr. King's work- is not yet complete.
Progress was purchased through enduring the smack of billy clubs and the blast of fire hoses. It was bought with days in jail cells and nights of bomb threats.
"Let us not be trapped by what is. We can't be discouraged by what is. We've got to keep pushing for what ought to be."
"[Dr. King] will stand for all time, among monuments to those who fathered this nation and those who defended it. A black preacher, no official rank or title, somehow gave voice to our deepest dreams and our most lasting ideas. [...]I know we will overcome. I know there are better days ahead. I know this because of the man towering over us."
