Black Hollywood showed up and showed out at the first ever BET Honors, which were held in Washington D.C. Saturday night. The ladies glammed it up on the red carpet, and the fellas got their GQ on. Honorees included R&B star Alicia Keys and supermodel Tyra Banks, Time Warner board chairman Richard D. Parsons and Princeton professor Cornel West. “For me, I’m just a girl still from Harlem, and here I am,” Keys said. “It’s a tremendous feeling to do what you love and for people to love what you do. … People are honoring me for doing what my heart tells me to do, (and that is) so fulfilling.” Actor Blair Underwood presented Keys’ award, while her musical idol, Stevie Wonder, performed a special rendition of of “As” especially for her. John Legend, Wyclef Jean, Gladys Knight, Brian McKnight, Jill Scott and Raheem DeVaughn also performed. The show is set to air sometime in February. Check your local listings for more details.

Jan.05.2008 // Chingy hates gay … no, no, he didn’t mean it like that!

People should really “Think 2wice” before they speak lol. In the video above, Chingy talks with SOHH about his new album, and when on the subject about his “Daddy’s Angel” tattoo on his neck, he slips up and says that he hates gay ___. But then not even a second after making that comment, he attempts to clear everything up by saying “no, no, I didn’t mean it like that.” Riiiiight lol.

I’ve always wondered about that damn tattoo though lol. I’ve never seen the other side though. I’ll have to look into that.

Dec.21.2007 // Chingy Hits up “The Wendy Williams Experience”

Rapper Chingy recently hit up “The Wendy Williams Experience” to suffer a brutal tongue lashing from Wendy and her bitch, Charlemagne. The interview started off with “Charley” calling him wack, and Chingy surprised me by keeping his composure. Real talk, if I were a celebrity I would neeeeever sit down with Wendy and that guy. I, for one, like my religion and would like to keep it =) Peep the interview for yourselves below:

Dec.12.2007 // New Beatz For The Freakz

JANET JACKSON » TIMBALAND » FERGIE » CHINGY

Janet Jackson » “Feedback” » LISTEN » (Full) » I’m sure you all remember me posting about Janet Jackson’s forthcoming single not too long ago (in April). Here is her brand new song “Feedback,” produced by Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins, it will be the first single lifted from Janet Jackson’s 10th studio album, appropriately entitled, Discipline (Island Def Jam). The singer’s new LP is due out February 26th of next year.

Timbaland ft. Keri Hilson + Nicole Scherzinger » “Scream” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Scream” is set to be the forth single lifted from Timbaland’s Shock Value (Interscope). The heavy string/tambourine sounding single features co-production by Danja and a guest appearance by Keri Hilson and light background vocals from Nicole Scherzinger. I really wasn’t all into this song that much at first but it’s getting there!

Fergie ft. Soulja Boy » “Clumsy (Collipark Remix)” » LISTEN » (Full) » Yelp, you read right. Collipark decided to make a remix to Fergie’s song “Clumsy” and decided to throw Soulja Boy in the mix! I like the original of “Clumsy” so much that any remix wouldn’t do me, not even Soulja Boy swayed me, sorry.

Chingy ft. Ludacris + Bobby Valentino » “Gimme Dat (Explicit)” » LISTEN » (Full) » “Gimme Dat” is slated to be Chingy’s second single from his forth studio album Hate It Or Love It (Def Jam/DTP). The single features stellar production by Full Scale and guest appearances by Ludacris and Bobby Valentino (vocals). The bass did it for me, this is my cut! Very nice single choice. Hmm, I wonder if Chingy reads blogs becos he has definitely stepped his game up this time around I’d say!
