''My mother made a decision not to come to my wedding because she didn't really agree with my decision,'' he explains, declining to specify whether she disagreed with his choice of wife or his decision to fire her. ''I don't know why,'' he offers simply. ''She's never told me and I've never asked her. It hurt me very much not to see her there 'cause I would've liked for her to be there, not to mention that I paid so much money for her to be accommodated and her behind didn't show up. [Laughs] But just as she's made stands, so have I.''In other Usher tantums, word on the curb is that he pulled some bitchassness on the set of "Dancing with the Stars" last week, showing up late and fumbling twice causing delaying in recording.

"I don't deny it (the wedding). I just don't talk about it. We've never talked about us and it's kind of protected our relationship. I think it's kept us out of tabloid drama.Nothing has come directly from Look, which is like a British celebrity rag...I just can't see her giving them the first official quote. Just saying.

“Robert Kelly is not on that tape,” Adam told jurors. “I stand before you on May 20, 2008, to tell you [the alleged victim] is not on that tape.”The alleged victim, Sparkle's niece, will not be testifying, the reporter that received the tape has been subpoenaed by the defense and the defense claims the chick in the vid was a paid prostitute.
Adam said that Kelly, 41, has a mole in the middle of his lower back, and that the mole will prove it’s not the singer who appears on the video. The lawyer told jurors that, when the video is shown, it will become clear the man on the tape had no such mole. He said the FBI could not identify the man on the tape as Kelly. [SOURCE]

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Your album is done?Read the full Q&A at EW.com
JENNIFER HUDSON: Finally! The album! Really, this is what I've been waiting for, dreaming of my whole life. It's just a matter of narrowing down [the song choices]. I've got the jitters because it's my first album and a lot of people don't realize that. Everybody thinks I did that already: ''This is your second or third album.'' I'm like, No, this is my first album.Congratulations! But it's been over four years since Idol — why did it take so long to finish?
Because I didn't expect to be a singer and an actress. I've been very busy. I've shot three films. And I told my team I want to put my attention on one or the other. When I'm acting I don't sing, and when I'm recording I'm not acting.

Beyonce Knowles still won't confirm her April 4 wedding to Jay-Z, so there was no chance yesterday she'd confirm she's pregnant. But pals of the tight-lipped newlyweds say the songbird is expecting the couple's first child. "She has gained a lot of pregnancy weight," a source said. "When she gains weight, she normally does the Def Jam detox, but not now." A rep for Beyoncé said, "I don't know if she's pregnant. Let me perform an ultrasound and get back to you." [SOURCE]LOL...that's a good one.

Essence: One thing you all have in common is that you each had a debut album that was a phenomenal success. How do you feel when you hear those songs now?For our complete interview with Mary J. Blige, Alicia Keys and Jill Scott pick up ESSENCE's June 2008 issue now on stands.
Mary J. Blige: It’s been about six months since I’ve listened to What’s the 411? I was in Japan working out, and when I heard it, I could definitely feel my youth, but I could also hear that I’ve always had an old soul. When I think back to that time, I remember that I was singing to escape. I understand that some people are stuck in that place, but I firmly believe that if you don’t evolve and grow, you will die.
Essence: From the outside looking in, it seems that success has been yours since day one, but there probably were, and are, disappointments. How do you cope when a project doesn’t pan out?
Jill Scott: This is life, and if something doesn’t work out, then it wasn’t meant to. I feel that there is a divine plan in all things. All I can do is the best I can do, and if it’s well received, then, yeah. If not, I hope life will give me an opportunity to try again. Do I challenge myself? Absolutely. But beat myself up? I just can’t do it.
Essence: Have you ever regretted folding to pressure from record labels?
Alicia Keys: In the beginning, I didn’t understand the concept of boundaries. I wanted to make sure the music was heard, but there’s a price you pay for that. I did everything and anything to promote my first album, like flying from New York to Los Angeles and back on the same day, which was a bit excessive.
Essence: Have you figured out the ingredients for the perfect song?
Mary: Yes, but I won’t tell. [Laughs] For me, it’s about being real and honest. And the lyrics have to be relatable.
Jill: Oh, I wish I knew. I think Ne-Yo knows. I think Carvin Haggins, who does a lot of writing for Musiq Soulchild, has the ingredients, too. My songs are mostly about life experiences, about being human and falling and getting back up. About loving and losing.
Essence: But aren’t those the ingredients right there?
Alicia: It’s always a bit of a mystery. A song should deal with a widely understood emotion, have a really strong, clear explanation of that emotion and a great melody that makes you want to sing it at the top of your lungs. Then the music should evoke the same feeling as the lyrics. Somewhere within all of that lies the perfect song.

The state Supreme Court sentence was handed Tuesday to the 26-year-old rapper, whose real name is Remy Smith, for assault, weapon possession and attempted coercion.Tough break. Good news for her, Papoose was not charged.
Remy Ma, who could have faced up to 25 years in prison, was teary-eyed as she heard the sentence.
She says last summer’s shooting was an accident; an appeal is planned. [via MSNBC]

“It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book," Jones told UsMagazine.com. "It speaks to her true character.”...in layman's terms...YOU'S A LIE...

"We really do feel we are soulmates," Carey tells PEOPLE, following their sunset ceremony at the pop star's Bahamian estate. "I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me."I don't wish bad ish on anyone, but this wreaks of an annulment waiting to happen.

Tampa Bay Times photographer Luis Santana, 25, claims he was chased and pinned down by minders, who swiped his $3,000 camera, when he tried to take pictures of Brown arriving at St. Petersburg's Vintage Ultra Lounge.In her interview with Elle she addressed the rumored romance and simply says they are "very close friends," but you don't summons beat downs for just any old friend, do you?
Santana alleges he was left with abrasions and bruises on his chest, back and arms.
He says, "I've shot many many celebrities and this was just another notch on my belt. Then it just turned sour."
Police are investigating four unnamed male suspects, who left the scene in a limousine.

“Star is an unbelievable woman. We have a great, great relationship. As friends.”Again...UGH! That's just nasty.
“We’re friends, just like a lot of celebrities. We are friends,” the pro basketball star said Thursday during a guest appearance on “Inside the NBA,” the jocular TNT show featuring Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Ernie Johnson.
“Are y’all close friends?” Smith asked.
“We’re good friends,” Wade responded.
“Are you the kind of friends that drink out of one cup with two straws?” Smith persisted, referring to a much-discussed photo of Wade, 26, and Jones, the 46-year-old TV personality who recently filed for divorce, at a tennis match. “Those kind of friends?”
“We are friends. That’s all,” said Wade, who is married to his high school sweetheart and has two sons.
“Good friends?” Barkley interjected.
“Naw, Chuck,” Wade said with a smile.
Some hilarity ensued. Barkley broke through the commotion to say, “I like Star. She’s a cougar.”

On the rumor about a relationship with Jay-Z:
“Well, it’s crazy that you ask me that. People know that it’s not true,” she says, straightening up. “I think it’s kinda a cliché question, and people know it’s not true, so I don’t even know why it’s still addressed to this day. I get asked about it all the time and I’m like, You’re asking, but you know the answer. I don’t even like to address it anymore.”
On Chris Brown:
“We’ve always been friends, but we’re very close now.”
Rihanna on her hair:
“I kept telling my managers, I’m cutting my hair. I’m cutting my hair. And they’re like, ‘How short? Not too short. Cut it how short?’ And I’m like, ‘Up to here,’ ” Rihanna says, raising her hand up to her ear. “They never believed me. So when it was time to do the album cover [for Good Girl], the night before I cut it, I dyed it black. We went straight to the photo shoot, and no one at the record label knew what I looked like. When we sent the pictures over, they saw the hair and they all loved it. They loved it.”

Don't believe the hype! When I started the show the other night we were having a lot of technical issues due 2 the heat. The 2 huge screens on both sides of the stage were glaring bright blue like when your DVD player acts up at home. I asked for them 2 turn the screens off 3 times because it was distracting 2 the show. The fans were not getting what they paid for. I admit, in my frustration, I did use profanity on the 4th time I asked. I stopped the show 2 go over and check it out myself. After the screens were turned off I started the same song from the beginning. The screens were eventually fixed 5 songs in but it was definitely better 2 have them blacked out rather than bright blue. Unfortunately for certain media outlets, you will never be able 2 'Michael Jackson' me. That means 2 make it seem like everything I do is so weird or out of place... they always try 2 make it seem like everything is about my ego! That joke is getting old. At a certain point you have 2 respect that I'm one of the last artist that still cares about the fans having the best time of there lives! Thanks 2 Bossip and Perez for taking it easy on me on the EW spaz... I did go in a little 2 much on that one. I'm sure there are some cool people who work over there and had nothing 2 do with that review. With all that said.... "I'm still the greatest!!!" lol!! Oh and I was in the studio with T.I. last night.... so get ready!!! - KANYE'S BLOGKanye loves the fans obviously...most artist would say fuck it, I don't have to explain shit, but this dude blogs about it instead. If you missed his spazzing out on EW for giving his show a B+ click here. I can't even be mad at him either, he's a perfectionist...

A source close to the couple revealed, "Beyonce is 100% pregnant, which is why the couple rushed their wedding." The source also told Hollyscoop that all the friends and family that attended the ultra private wedding were all aware that Beyonce was already expecting.Err...Ummm...Ionno 'bout all that! Time will tell I guess but I always think she is a bit too calculated to do that.
Our source added that Beyonce is in her early stages, but don’t expect this star to come out with a confirmation statement anytime soon.
