If you saw the super trailer for this season of “Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta,” you might recall an interesting conversation brewing between Karlie Redd and Benzino about a p*rn tape with Joseline. Since all we’ve seen are a few second of the discussion, we had to ask Benzino what all that was about when he came into the office — and more importantly was he Joseline’s leading man. We also needed to know his status with Karlie and what was up with those pics we saw of him and Claudia Jordan getting awfully close earlier this year. Lucky for us — and you — “Zino Grigio” told us everything we wanted to know. Check out what he had to say in the video above.

From EurWeb

Claudia Jordan has a problem with Omarosa.

So what’s up with that you say? Well, despite the fact that she’s now a woman of the cloth and suffered the tragedy of losing her fiancé, Michael Clarke Duncan, a lot of folks still don’t like her. Just ask La Toya Jackson. No, wait, just ask Claudia Jordan.

You see, Claudia and Omarosa used to be friends, but had a falling out after Michael Clarke Duncan’s funeral.

Apparently, Omarosa didn’t like the fact that Claudia had posted a picture on Instagram from her fiancé Michael Clarke Duncan’s funaral as she laid him to rest. Claudia, however, feels that was a minor offense if it was one at all because the picture she posted was in tribute to the Green Mile actor.

See Claudia Jordan’s response on EurWeb.com.

We love it when randomness like this pops up in our inbox.

Just as we’re trying to fully recover from the fact that Karlie Redd allowed herself to be physically touched by the likes of Benzino, rumor has it he’s been putting his thin puckers all over a new woman — Claudia Jordan.

Actually, it’s not a rumor because the proof is in the pic. What’s not so clear is whether this is promo or grown people play play. See, our first inclination is to say this is for a music video of some sort but when we think about Benzino’s relevance to the music industry and the decades that have passed since he’s released music anyone was checking for, the probability seems kind of low. Then again, stranger things — like his ex-girl Karlie Redd dropping a song — have happened so maybe that’s all this is. Or Claudia Jordan could be making her way to the next season of “Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta” and this is a part of Benzino’s storyline. Or the star of Tiny Tonight could just be trying to see what that be like…why we can’t possibly say.

Anywho, caption this pic and tell us what you think is going on between these assumed budding love birds. And check out a few more pics on the next pages.

Last week when we reported on Tamar Braxton’s pregnancy announcement, we also told you guys that the “Love & War” singer would not be returning to her post as a co-host of VH1′s Tiny Tonight. While Braxton says that her departure from the show has nothing to do with tension between she and former co-host, Claudia Jordan, she did reveal that she still has issues with Claudia. Interesting enough, it appears that the feeling isn’t mutual. In an interview with Power 105.1′s The Breakfast Club, Claudia discussed the so-called beef she has with the youngest Braxton sister and claimed that it is actually a one-sided issue because she has no problems with Tamar.

“I don’t have one [a relationship with Tamar]. It’s a one-sided beef. Before I did Tiny Tonight, I had never seen the Braxtons or any other that she did. I had never even heard her music. I knew nothing about her except that she’s one of the sisters of Toni Braxton. They told me that she’s extra before the show. I’m like ‘Cool, this should be fun.’ She was cool the first day in rehearsals. She was like ‘You’ve got flawless skin,’ and I’m like ‘Is that a bad thing? My bad.’”

Claudia went on to say that out of the blue, Tamar’s attitude just changed.

“From the first day to the second, the vibe just changed tremendously, to the point where I kept my composure and girls in the audience were yelling, ‘Way to keep it classy, Claduia. We love you!’ They felt bad for me. It [the show] was edited to make it look much nicer than it really was.”

While some believe Tamar’s quarrel with Claudia stem from her insinuation that Tamar is a gold digger, Claudia says that’s absolutely absurd.

“Listen, if you think that by me saying, ‘I’m not a gold digger’, when I’m being attacked from all angles because I say that my perfect first date is not necessarily getting into a private jet, which is so freaking unrealistic and I say, ‘Hey, I’m not a gold digger,’ and you take offense to that, then you might want to take a look at yourself. I never said anything about her being a gold digger. I don’t know her life. She was definitely firing shots like I don’t have standards because I don’t expect a guy on a first date to take me on a private jet. Who does that? I think hookers do that and high-end call girls, escorts.”

Turn the page for footage of Claudia’s interview (she begins talking about Tamar around thee 11-minute mark). What do you think of her response? Is she simply a victim of Tamar’s mouthy ways or did she play a part in the beef as well?

If you were able to catch the special Valentine’s Day episode of VH1′s “Tiny Tonight”, you probably noticed the undeniable tension between co-hosts Tamar Braxton and Claudia Jordan, especially when the ladies began to discuss dating with standards and considering a man’s financial situation. Claudia expressed that the extravagance of a first date isn’t indicative of the success of a relationship.

“I had a very amazing date with someone at a very low-end restaurant, who was on the Forbes List and it ended up being a really nice relationship,” said Claudia.

“But he ain’t put a ring on it!” Tamar obnoxiously interjected.

As you can probably guess, this is where things got ugly. The ladies proceeded to go back and forth with Tamar taunting Claudia for not having a ring yet and Claudia expressing that love isn’t all about money, which is where Tamar quickly got defensive and began stating that she isn’t a gold digger. Tiny quickly diffused the situation, but of course, it didn’t end there.

Although previously taped, it seems that the episode airing last night stirred up some old feelings in the two co-hosts because they almost immediately began going at it via their Twitter pages the moment the episode aired.

Claudia does have a point. Tamar could’ve handled the disagreement a bit more professionally and didn’t have to personally attack her co-star for having different views.

Check out the video clip of the conversation that initiated the tension between Tamar and Claudia on the next page. What do you make of all of this? Is this a ploy to boost ratings?

Our problem child Tamar Braxton is known for running her trap. I mean just about anything can come out of her mouth at any given moment. But, the youngest Braxton sister seems to be considering changing her blabber mouth ways. After finding herself in the midst of a Twitter war with Beyonce stans and “Love & Hip Hop Atlanta” star Joseline Hernandez over some not so nice comments she made while co-hosting VH1′s Tiny Tonight, Tamar is claiming to have learned her lesson. In an interview with Power 105.1′s The Breakfast Club, she even somewhat implied that she will begin filtering her thoughts before allowing them to come out of her mouth. Now wouldn’t that be something?

She expressed to host Angela Yee that with her newfound fame comes the constant scrutiny of her words.

“Whatever you say out of your mouth is like verbatim. Like ‘That’s what you said so that’s what you mean’. Well, no, not really.”

Tamar’s hubby Vince also chimed in on the conversation.

“I tell Tamar that sometimes she can’t speak all the time what she feels. But, you know she does make comments and we’re working on a talk show and things of that nature… It just happens. That’s what girlfriends do when they sit around and talk… Nobody gets mad when Joan Rivers says some crazy stuff about somebody.”

It seems that “Love & Hip Hop” star Joseline’s reaction to her negative comments is what really caused Tamar to consider how her words were impacting others.

“I’ve never even met her and I did feel bad about saying that. I was actually speaking about what everybody else was saying. I didn’t really take into consideration that she has feelings.I used to get bullied. I use to really get my feelings hurt on a daily basis. It was tough for me. So when I heard her frustration when she was talking about ‘I will fight her’ and ‘I fight old chicks’ and whatever she wants to say I was like ‘Oh, she’s hurt. So, I’m sorry.’”

I suppose we’ll have to wait and see if Tamar has really learned her lesson.

I always get a chuckle when I think of how our reality television problem child, Tamar Braxton-Herbert’s blabber almost always lands her in hot water and not just with her co-stars, but with stars from other reality shows as well. Her most recent offense has been against Love and Hip Hop Atlanta star, Joseline Hernandez. Tamar recently appeared as a host on nighttime talk show Tiny Tonight along with Trina and Claudia Jordan and during a year-end  entertainment recap, the ladies wound up on the subject of the infamous Love and Hip Hop Atlanta love triangle between Stevie J, Mimi Faust and Joseline Hernandez. Tamar of course, the most outspoken of the bunch, proceeded to call Joseline a man.

Ms. Hernandez, obviously angered by Tamar’s comments, confronted Tamar via Twitter before hurling a tirade of insults at her. First Joseline, flipped the script on Tamar, saying that she was the one with man parts and then proceeded to call her a grandma. If you know Joseline, you know she didn’t stop there. A few days later, she appeared on Kandi Burruss’ online show, Kandi Koated Nights, where she continued to discuss the situation and go at Tamar.

Two weeks later, I guess Tamar has recognized the error of her ways because the “Love and War” singer issued a half-apology to Joseline via her Twitter page.

“I should says sorry2 @joseline cause I was only joking during a year in review show. It was all “in fun” but I didn’t want 2 hurt any feelings,” she tweeted.

I mean, I guess it was big of Tamar to offer an apology to Joseline even though it was way after the offense was made. If she’s smart, she probably looked back at that video of Joseline putting the beats on Stevie in that therapist’s office and concluded that it’s probably wiser to have Ms. Hernandez as a friend than a foe. If Joseline found it in her heart to forgive that scheming Karlie Redd during the last season of Love and Hip Hop Atlanta, then we’re sure she can forgive Tamar as well.

Why do you think Tamar all of a sudden wants to apologize to Joseline?

It seems that Tamar Braxton’s debut on Tiny Tonight has made her the queen of stirring up mess by breathing life back into old rumors that most people have long forgotten about. Yesterday, we reported that Love and Hip Hop‘s Joseline Hernandez went completely off on the “Love and War” singer calling her a Beyonce “wannabe” because of Tamar’s reference to the ancient rumors that Ms. Hernandez is actually a man posing as a woman. Of course, being no stranger to controversy, Tamar didn’t miss a beat chiming in when co-host Claudia Jordan brought up those old “Beyonce faked her pregnancy” rumors either. When asked what she thought of Bey’s pregnancy, here’s what our favorite blabber mouth had to say:

“Well I thought she was pregnant until the whole deflating of the stomach thing when she sat down. I was like…”

It goes without saying that the “Bey Stans” lit up Tamar’s Twitter mentions almost instantly and not long after our girl was back peddling.

“Never said Beyoncé faked her pregnancy! ! That was claudia’s A$$! I was talking about the video that came out this year so _/ and rewind,” she tweeted.

Remind us not to commit any crimes with Tamar. As soon as the Beyhive turned up the heat on her, homegirl started singing like a canary,  throwing Claudia completely under the bus.

Everyone and their mama had opinions as to whether or not Beyonce was actually pregnant. That’s not the real offense here. The true question is why the hell are they still talking about it? Baby Blue has been here for almost a year, why is this even relevant anymore? While Tiny Tonight is an extremely cute show, those writers and hosts need to get up to date with the latest happenings because stirring the pot with old news is not going to cut it.

What do you think of Tamar’s statements regarding Bey’s pregnancy?

Most of us knew that the premiere of “Tiny Tonight” would not come without controversy, and we were proven right when Joseline lost her mind over the new late-night talk show on Twitter last night. Since the entire cast of the show, with the exception of Trina, are all pretty well acquainted with the reality television industry, of course reality shows were a hot topic.

One show in particular came up and that was VH1′s “Love and Hip Hop.” This of course prompted Tamar to dig in the archives and dust off the “Joseline Herenandez is really a man” rumors while co-host Claudia Jordan co-signed. It seems that Joseline didn’t take too kindly to Tamar’s antics though because she went completely off on Tamar and Claudia via her Twitter page.

“@TamarBraxtonHer b***h u got a d**k u f**k u know who whit you wanna be beyonce old PUTA. U a mess . I stay on u hoes mind. U 2 old”

“@TamarBraxtonHerI fight old hoes. Iol. #trowback. N give it up u like 100 u been trying all your life. Get back brawd. Lol”

“Grandmamas always b hating”

She then proceeded to get some licks in on Claudia Jordan as well.

“This old hoe @claudiajordanneed to sit down is she married yet?@tamarbraxtonherneed a nose job with her ugly a**”

“These throwback ho$& is clowns!Say something bout me I’m going to go in on you publicly with a vengeance I don’t give a f$&@! Respect who”

Joseline is fighting maddddddd y’all. What I find ironically hilarious though is that Joseline’s writing is just as difficult to understand as her speech sometimes. Tamar doesn’t seem to have responded to Joseline’s angry rant yet, but we’re sure she will eventually. Do you guys think she’s going to threaten to sue Joseline for defamation like she did K.Michelle?

Do you think Tamar and Claudia’s comments warranted Joseline’s erratic Twitter rant?

The time has come for a whole new level of ratchetry on TV — or is it? That’s the topic Tameka “Tiny” Cottle and her girls will, appropriately, be tackling on the sneak peek of her new late-night talk show, “Tiny Tonight,” tonight. Joined by Tamar Braxton, Claudia Jordan, and Trina, the ladies will turn to their resident correspondent/Tiny’s hairdresser, Shekinah, to hit the (white) streets of Atlanta and figure out what is truly ratchet. Unfortunately no one understood a word she said so it’s a good thing Tiny gave her own brief definition when introducing the segment, saying:

“When bad decisions and wrong choices get together and make an ugly-a** baby, we call that ratchet.”

Could this be exhibit A?

“Tiny Tonight” debuts tonight at 10pm on VH1. Check out the sneak peek below. Will you watch?
