{blackbabes} You'll Never Guess Who Sang Backup Vocals for Rihanna's ''FourFiveSeconds'' Track!

You hear "FourFiveSeconds" on the radio all the time, but you probably didn't realize there are more famous voices on that track besides Kanye West, Paul McCartney and Rihanna

It was just revealed that one particularly famous group lent their voices for the backup vocals of the song after gaining some praise from Yeezy. Can you take a guess as to who it is?

Nope, it's Wendy Wilson, Chynna Phillips & Carnie Wilson, otherwise known as Wilson Phillips!

"[Kanye West] said, 'When I think of authenticity and I think of angelic, I think of you,'" Carnie told Billboard. "He was really shy and he would just smile and he's real soft-spoken, then all of a sudden when he started playing all these songs, he was dancing around the room," she continues.

"It was just like how Michael Jackson used to be. When he would press play, it was like, out came the artist and the creativity was just really there."

According to the article, West instructed Wilson Phillips to take the track home to work on their vocal harmonies.

"We didn't know if we were singing on a section of the song—originally it was supposed to be just the bridge," Carnie says. "He gave us sole freedom to just do what we do. We just went in there and let loose."

RiRi, Kanye and McCartney teamed up for the emotionally charged black-and-white video, which doesn't feature any special effects or anything out of the ordinary, just the three performers giving it their all while dressed completely in denim.

The stripped down feel for their video was pretty much the same concept when the trio took the stage at the Grammys this year to perform the new single. No hoopla, just vocals, and it was perfect.

{blackbabes} Beyoncé Shows Off Legs for Days in Sexy Purple Skirt While Making Surprise Appearance at Chanel Fashion Show

Beyonce

Well hello there, Beyoncé!

All eyes were on the "Crazy in Love" singer who stepped out in New York City to attend Chanel's latest fashion show Tuesday night.

While the Destiny's Child member passed on posing near the red carpet, photographers were still able to capture Queen Bey's impeccable style on the streets of the Big Apple.

Wearing a neutral sweater with a printed jacket and a purple leather skirt, Mrs. Jay Z had no problems showing off her fit figure and those fabulous legs. She completed her look with a Chanel handbag, heels and some serious bling on both of her fingers.

Lily-Rose Depp

Not to be outdone, there were a few other familiar faces that certainly made this show a star-studded affair.

Julianne Moore, Dakota Johnson, Pharrell Williams and Lily Collins were just some of the big names who had a front-row seat to Chanel's Metiers d'Art Collection. 

Even Vanessa Paradis made it a mother-daughter night out when she attended with daughter Lily-Rose Depp. At just 15 years old, the teenager sparkled in a two-piece pastel ensemble consisting of a crop top and pencil skirt.

It looks like someone is taking some good advice from her mama who was recently crowned "one of Karl Lagerfeld's favourite girls" by Marie Claire UK. Way to learn from the absolute best!

{blackbabes} Lupita Nyong'o: There's ''Nothing Comfortable About Being an Actor," but She's Taking Grace-Under-Pressure Cues From Emma Thompson

Lupita Nyong'o, Harper's Bazaar UK

So this fame thing hasn't quite grown on Lupita Nyong'o yet.

"You know, I thought it would come to an end after the Oscars. I thought the Oscars would come and go and then all of a sudden everything would be back to normal and I'd be back in my apartment," the Academy Award winner says in the May 2015 issue of Harper's Bazaar U.K., which also features the radiant 12 Years a Slave star on the cover.

While you would have been hard-pressed to tell that Nyong'o's triumphant 2014 awards season was also her first red-carpet gamut (not to mention her breakthrough year as an actress in general), the Kenyan star insists that she was just fakin' it till she made it.

Lupita Nyong'o, Harper's Bazaar UK

"You know what kept me sane? Not knowing," she admits. "Having never really experienced that before... because this was new territory I had no normal. I had no sense of what was normal in that world. It was all new. I don't think [I would attend that many events again]. Not to that extent."

But if what Nyong'o says is true—that she considered Emma Thompson with serving as a beacon of light in the storm—perhaps we can expect her playful side to come out a bit more on future red carpets, à la her idol.

"Emma Thompson, Emma Thompson, Emma Thompson, Emma Thompson," Nyong'o replied when asked what her ultimate saving grace was during those hectic months. "It was such a relief... witnessing her going through that whole thing with an ease and a playfulness and just abandon. That is like the person I want to be. I want to be that comfortable even in this very alien environment that you get put in." 

Thompson was nominated last year for a Golden Globe, a SAG Award, a BAFTA and many other honors for Saving Mr. Banks, so she did cross paths with Lupita a number of times—not least of which when she totally photobombed the awards season newbie.  

Asked about her uniquely poignant acceptance speeches, Nyong'o admits that she wishes she didn't put quite as much of herself into them as she almost always does.

"I wish that I took it more lightly sometimes because it costs a lot," she says. "Which is why I can't do those speeches every weekend, because it costs a lot to share from such a deep place, if you will. But I don't know how to speak from any other place. Kenyans are very ceremonial. There is a formality that comes with gatherings and comes from our colonial conditioning... Oratory is something that's really important to Kenyans, the way one speaks to the masses, it's an art almost."

Speaking of her heritage, Nyong'o was also asked if she felt a responsibility to share her personal experiences and speak out on behalf of the importance of diversity in Hollywood.

Lupita Nyong'o, Harper's Bazaar UK

"I don't feel like the responsibility I feel comes from any place other than my gut. I feel a responsibility to speak about certain things because I wish someone had spoken about them for me," she says. "I know I'm in a unique position where lots of people all over the world are seeing me and connecting with me, and perhaps because of my demographic and how limited representation is for my demographic, I do feel not a responsibility but an impetus to speak. It's an impetus... It's 2015, man. We could all use some diversity. It can get tedious to have to explain that I speak English because Kenyans speak English."

Though being under the microscope isn't Nyong'o's favorite thing about the biz, at least she still loves the acting part, albeit because she's fine with a certain amount of discomfort.

"I enjoy learning new things," she says. "I enjoy being uncomfortable for some reason. It's more interesting, more challenging… That's why I'm an actor. Because there's nothing comfortable about being an actor. You're always out on a ledge, you know?"

The May issue of Harper's Bazaar U.K. is on sale April 2.

{blackbabes} Mel B Insists the Spice Girls Remain "One Big Happy Family," Praises Victoria Beckham for Her "Amazing" Empire

The Fault in Our Stars / Divergent / The Descendants

Spice Girls 

Spice Girls forever!

It's no secret that there have been reports over the years of the girl group feuding, not getting along or simply falling out of touch.

But during a recent interview, Mel B assured loyal fans that the entire group remains close even after all of these years.

"We were just five crazy ladies on a mission. I love the fact that I can still have that passion and drive in different things I do today. I still have the backing of all of them today," she told HuffPost Live Tuesday. "It's nice. We're like one big, happy family."

And like any family, the America's Got Talent judge admits that the "Wannabe" crooners haven't always seen eye-to-eye on every issue. That doesn't mean, however, that they don't get along.

"We're like sisters. We get on one minute. We scream, fight and argue," she admitted. "Then we have a cup of tea together and tell each other how much we love each other."

That girl power was evident when Mel B was asked about fellow Spice Girls member Victoria Beckham and all the success she's had in the fashion industry. Instead of competition, there's just a whole lot of support.

"She's built an incredible empire," the Brit admitted. "I wear one of her dresses every now and again. I think they're amazing, and I think she's amazing."  

While rumors continue to circulate about a possible 20th anniversary reunion—Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell sound totally in—Mel B would never say never. After all, it's never too late to "Spice Up Your Life."

"We're five girls who launched something pretty incredible," she shared. "And we're still good friends to this day."
