After debuting her full song, “Grown Woman,” to the world this week while performing in Paris for the Mrs. Carter World Tour, it’s clear Beyoncé and her team have some more tricks up their sleeves, as her new promo “commercial” for H&M has been released right after. Introduced as “Beyoncé as Mrs. Carter in H&M,” it comes off more like a music video than anything to be honest, especially with all the elaborate dance sequences and the luau-ish scene at the end. But alas, it’s fab nonetheless.

Sporting both her regular blonde locks, but also sporting a black wig just to mix things up for a change, the singer winded and played in the sand rocking some hot looks from her collaboration with the retailer, including swimsuits, and body-con dresses. And of course, she debuts a new song from her upcoming album (which we still haven’t heard about a release date for) called “Standing in the Sun.” It’s definitely a nice jam for summer from what we can tell, well, so far, but what we know for sure is that she’s definitely selling those clothes!

Check out the campaign ad, which comes off as a fancier 2013 version of the “Baby Boy” video below and let us know what you think?

Reunited and it feels so good!

One of our favorite on-screen couples from the ’90s have found themselves back in each other’s arms. Well, almost.

Clueless stars Stacey Dash and Donald Faison — better known as dysfunctional couple Dionne and Murray — will be starring side-by-side again on an episode of the TV Land comedy, “The Exes.”

According to reports, Dash will play Dana, a recommitted virgin who is currently dating Faison’s character, Phil.

The episode is slated to air in July, but until then, lets take a look at 10 other couples from television and the big screen that we’d love to see work together again.

Beyonce, mega star of the world, has never forgotten her roots…or has she? Is referencing dookie braids in her latest “Bow Down” single hood enough to prove it? Actually, we don’t even have to do that because if you’re a real Bey Stan, you know she’s been a lil hood for a minute — or four albums — now.  Oh you forgot about that? Let us refresh your memory.

It is officially baby season out in Hollywood. Plus-size model Anansa Sims, the daughter of iconic black model Beverly Johnson, just became a new mommy all over again after giving birth to a baby boy on Election day. Anansa and her hubby, former NFL player David Patterson, welcomed their second child, David Bernard Patterson III, on Tuesday, November 6, according to her rep.

David entered the world at 8 lbs and 13 oz and measured 21 inches long, which would be expected considering the height of his parents. Anansa and her husband jumped the broom in 2010 and wasted no time popping out the babies. With this little cutie’s birth, the couple’s 16-month-old daughter Ava Brielle became a big sister.

Beverly Johnson told People she’s ecstatic about the birth of her grandson, saying:

“[I'm] feeling so blessed! Being a grandparent is the best!!! I am so in love! Go straight to grandparenthood!”

Check out pics of the proud parents and their little man on the next few pages. Congratulations!

Twenty-two-year-old Compton rapper Tyga and his King of Diamonds-bred stripper girlfriend Blac Chyna welcomed a baby boy into the world yesterday. Little King Cairo Stevenson took the last name of his father who was born Michael Ray Nguyen-Stevenson, and weighed in at 7 lbs and 1 oz.

Both parents shared the news on Twitter, with Tyga saying:

Most Amazing feeling ever.#Blessed #2Kings @KingCairo http://instagr.am/p/Q2-AilqepG/

Blac Chyna expressed her excitement over becoming a new mommy, writing:

Welcome King Cairo Stevenson 7lbs 1 oz ……. #blessed !!!!

40 long weeks …. So happy words can’t explain !!!

RT @Tyga: Thank you God Always. Todays gonna be a good Day.

Hopefully little King has a place to go home to. Right now Tyga has a little legal matter on his hand, stemming from the fact that his landlord is suing him. Gholamreza Rezai claims the rapper isn’t paying his $16,000/month in rent but is continuing to live in the home. Tyga’s people claim the lawsuit is BS and that he just bought a $6.5 million 9,279-square-foot mansion in Calabasas. I’m trying to figure out where his money is coming from, but that’s a discussion for another day.

Here are a few more pics of little King, congratulations!

Jody, Jody, Jody. Though he had some super triflin’ ways, we couldn’t completely rule him out. Perhaps because we saw how he shut ole girl down, though she was doing her best to seduce him. Or more likely, we liked him because he reminded us of a manchild we’ve known (or still know) in our own lives. Either way, watching Jody grow up throughout the course of the movie Baby Boy, was so real and so entertaining and the very talented cast, helped to bring this already relateable story to life. You know the plot, the outcome and those memorable characters; but we bet you don’t know the behind the scenes secrets of this hood classic.

Tupac was supposed to play the role of Jody

Though anyone can see why Tupac would have been great for this role, it’s still  a bit eery to think that he was supposed to portray Jody. The role was written specifically for him. But when he died in 1996, Singleton shelved the project. The role probably wouldn’t have been too much of a stretch for the rapper turned actor considering he vacillated between the sensitive, socially conscious poet to the thugged out gangster rapper. So the inclusion of Tupac’s face looming over Jody is no coincidence. In a review of the film, the New York Times pointed out just how powerful and symbolic that mural was: “His image, hovering behind Jody and Melvin, is a haunting reminder of what is at stake for Jody.”

Last night, Miami Heat player Chris Bosh hopped on a private plane from NYC to head home to Miami after he found out his wife Adrienne was in labor. This morning, the newlywed couple welcomed a healthy baby into the world and they were both there to see it.

To ease Adrienne’s fears that Chris wouldn’t make it in time, someone must have sent her a pic of her hubby boarding the plane last night, because she tweeted this pic yesterday evening saying:

“Thank God for private flights…Hurry home Baby ”

Chris held up his end of the bargain, having told news outlets he would drop everything at a moment’s notice to be by his wife’s side during the birth.

“I’ve got a beeper, so when it goes off, I’ll be ready,” he said. “It’s an exciting time, I’m trying to compete for a championship and prepare for new life. It is a busy time in the Bosh household.”

Chris was in New York yesterday to prepare for tonight’s game against the Knicks, and according to David Aldridge of NBA.com, he will be back in NYC tonight to go head to head in game three. That’s a dedicated father and team player.

Congrats to the Bosh family!

Tyrese has been a hottie ever since he was first seen singing on that bus for some Coca-Cola (Pepsi is better, but he’s still delicious). He’s definitely better to look at than to listen to, as a few of his rants from time to time have rubbed a few ladies the wrong way. But don’t lie, if Tyrese spit some game to you on the bus, talking about “Always Coca-Cola,” you know you would be down to be his “Sweet Lady.” (I had to do it.) The singer turned Hollywood leading man is definitely one of our faves in the eye candy department, so we couldn’t pass on the opportunity to represent for him. Check him out in all his chocolate-y goodness!

Fantasia Barrino received her bundle of joy a little bit earlier than expected, after she and boyfriend Antwaun Cook checked into Presbyterian Hospital in North Carolina Monday afternoon.

The couple’s baby was originally due December 29, but Fantasia gave birth to a healthy son just a little more than two weeks early today. I’m sure they’ll be happy to have their new baby home just in time for Christmas. Congrats Fannie!
