Naomi Campbell and Lenny Kravitz sparked fake dating rumors after leaving Gigi Hadid's birthday party at the Nice Guy in LA.

They held hands and even smooched inside his car, but a Kravitz source said it was all in fun.

"They're decades-long good friends. They found it funny and were just being flirtatious and having fun for the cameras."

Earlier, they attended Campbell's Taschen book party with Quincy Jones, Dave Chappelle, Kim Kardashian, P. Diddy, The Weeknd and Kelly Rowland.

{blackbabes} Sherri Saum: ‘I’ve Never Been More Fit’ Thanks to My Twin Toddlers

Sherri Saum Workout
 
 
 

Sherri Saum has her 23-month-old twin sons John and Michael to thank for her toned post-baby body.

"Believe it or not, I feel like I've never been more fit because of them," the actress, 41, tells PEOPLE. "I remember people telling me, 'I get my workout running after my toddler,' and I was secretly thinking, 'That's a joke right?' And now I understand it."

"I literally don't sit down!" she continues. "I'm basically lifting weight all day long – I'm picking them up, putting them down, picking them up, putting them down. It truly is a workout."

Saum also takes her twins for long walks in their stroller.

"We go for a mile and a half. We live in a really hilly area, so it's a serious workout!" she says.

When their schedules align, The Fosters star also likes to work out with her husband Kamar de los Reyes, 47.

"We try to take advantage of the times that we can, especially because we live in such a great area where we can get a workout in right by our house," says Saum. "We go hiking a lot together, and we have a great set of stairs near where we live, so we do stair workouts and body weight workouts."

Saum supplements her hikes with her husband and toddler workouts with twice-a-week sessions with a personal trainer.

"We do a lot of kettlebell work, we do a lot of work with resistance bands," she says. "It's really important for me to get my core and low back strong, so we do things that are centered around that. It's just a focused and targeted workout that's geared toward the reality of my life, which is I'm picking up kids a lot and my back needs to be there for me."

Saum's dedication to fitness comes from a desire to be a better parent, rather than a place of vanity.

"At this point in my life it's not about, let me look good in this dress. It's about, I need to be able to wake up and be strong enough and energetic enough to play with my kids, and be an active and present parent for them," she says. "That's where my goals have shifted."

Another part of Saum's wellness routine is USANA health bars.

"With the bars, I know exactly the nutrients I'm getting without having to thinking about it," she says. "It's just simple and wholesome and targeted toward my special needs."

{blackbabes} Refs feel the ‘Heat’ from Gabrielle Union

https://nyppagesix.files.wordpress.com/2016/04/spl1254188_007.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&w=915
 

Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade's wife, actress Gabrielle Union, is going after the referees of Wednesday's losing game against the Charlotte Hornets.

"During the first half, Gabrielle was yelling at the ref and heckling him about a bunch of bad of calls," says a witness. "She was yelling while one of the players was at the free-throw line, verbalizing her displeasure with the way the game was being called. The whole section was getting behind her. The ref started laughing, and turned and said, 'Shouldn't you be at the Beyoncé concert?'

Without skipping a beat, she responded, 'I am in 'Formation' at the [Hyde AA] Arena . . . 'Lemonade'! Now do your job!' "

Union, who's upset the refs didn't call a foul on the Hornets during a shot Wade made in the game's last seconds, took to Twitter with a long rant calling it "BS," and saying, "Crappy officiating deserves a FINE and suspension," and stating, "As a fan, I want transparency. Same transparency that's used 4 discipline of players/coaches/owners. Let the fans know about ref discipline."

The Heat lost by just two points.

{blackbabes} Official Whitney Houston doc in the works from Oscar-winner

 

LOS ANGELES (AP) — An official Whitney Houston documentary is in the works from Oscar-winning filmmaker Kevin Macdonald. It will be the first to be authorized by the late pop superstar's estate since her death in 2012 at age 48. Altitude Film Entertainment announced the project on Thursday.

Macdonald won an Academy Award for his Munich Olympics documentary "One Day in September. He said he wants to tell the story of how brilliant an artist Houston was and how she changed the way pop music was sung.

No U.S. distributor has been set for the film.

{blackbabes} ‘Southside With You’ Trailer: The Obamas’ First Date Goes Pretty Well

 
Ebates.ca - Amazon.com - Amazon.ca - Wal-Mart - GameStop - Match.com - Work From Home

Video: https://youtu.be/yhd-yvMjImU

"You and I share a lot of the same interests." And eventually they'd share the title of America's First Couple. Here's the first trailer for Southside With You, the story of the first date — "This is not a date" — of Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson on a summer's day in 1989 Chiacgo. Suffice it so say, things went well.

southside with you

Michelle (Tika Sumpter) initially isn't all that thrilled that her law firm's new summer associate from Harvard (Parker Sawyers) has invited her to a community event. Or is she? They seem to get along, but she's adamant that it's merely a work thing; after all, she's his adviser: "How's it gonna look if I start dating the first cute black guy who walks through the firm's doors? It would be tacky." "You think I'm cute?" "I didn't say that." The long day turns to night and takes them from a museum to the movies for Do the Right Thing to their eventual first kiss — all after driving around in his beaten-up jalopy and grooving to Janet Jackson and Raphael Saadiq.

Richard Tanne wrote and makes his directing debut on the film from John Legend's Get Lifted along with IM Global. It opens August 29 via Miramax and Roadside Attractions. Take a moment away from the daily grind of 2016 politics and check out the trailer.

{blackbabes} World's top tennis player, Serena Williams: I still haven't made it

 

She's the number one tennis player and one of the richest athletes in the world, but if you ask Serena Williams, she says she hasn't "made it."

"I don't think like that," Williams told CNBC. "I'm still going and doing the best that I can."

At 34, Williams has achieved what most people can only dream about. She has 21 Grand Slam titles, four Olympic gold medals, and she's earned more than $75 million in prize money.

The reigning champion of Wimbledon and the French Open is widely regarded by many as the greatest female tennis player of all time. And if that's not all. She's got her own foundation, a successful fashion line on HSN and is a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins.

Whether it's her career or a business idea, Williams says the approach is similar and that her determination and perseverance have been key.

"You can really carry that on to life in terms of everything I do and approach," she said.

When times get hard, Williams says a reboot can be the key to turning things around.

"Sometimes you have to restart, or get a new business plan or think of a whole new idea," she said. "I have just realized that you don't want to give up and should continue to find that success."

Despite her storied career, Williams says winning a Grand Slam or championship doesn't necessarily mean you're successful.

"I think success is how you define it," she said. "Each person has their own success point and grade."

As Williams' tennis career winds down, Serena Inc is just getting started. She said she's gotten advice from an unlikely mentor: Facebook (FB) COO Sheryl Sandberg . "I really look up to her and think she's an incredible businesswoman," said Williams.

Already one of the most recognizable names in sports, representing more than a dozen major companies, Williams is always looking for the next big thing.

"I look for things that people will really enjoy and something that I will enjoy, too. When you bring those aspects together," she said, "it can help it to really be fun."

{blackbabes} Waltz with Leo, Brad or Beyonce _ or their holograms anyway

 

TOKYO (AP) — You can waltz with Leo, pirouette to "Swan Lake" or join Beyonce on the disco floor. Well, your holograms can, at Tokyo's Madame Tussauds wax museum.

The Tokyo location of the museums known for their life-sized celebrity figures in wax opened a dancing hologram attraction Thursday.

Visitors can waltz and disco with Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Marilyn Monroe, or pirouette in a "Swan Lake" ballet with Olympics figure skating champion Yuzuru Hanyu.

Mizuho Shinden had a dream-come-true experience with two of her favorite celebrities, Monroe and Lady Gaga.

"It looks as though I'm really there, so that's a strange feeling. But I thought, wow, it's like a dream to be able to dance with such amazing people,'" Shinden said.

It was more unsettling for Tomoaki Ishizuka, who found himself dressed in a ballet leotard alongside Hanyu. "I saw myself dancing with other ballerinas, so that was disgusting - but it was disgusting because it looked so real," said Ishizuka.

Participants get a 3D face scan, which is transposed onto a hologram dancer for the 90-second presentation.

The attraction is one of the ways the centuries-old museum is exploring of interacting with celebrities in a digital age.

Museum General Manager Toshi Endo said the current roster of three dances and six celebrities will expand by midyear.

{blackbabes} Beyoncé Thanks 'My Beautiful Husband' Jay Z as She Launches Her Formation World Tour in Miami

 
 
The kick off to Beyoncé's Formation World Tour in Miami Wednesday night came packed with an emotional punch.

At the very end of the show, Queen Bey thanked her "beautiful husband"
Jay Z, and earlier shared a touching story about their daughter Blue Ivy and also paid tribute to Prince.

The singer's marriage to husband Jay Z has been under tremendous scrutiny ever since she released her
infidelity-themed album Lemonade four days prior to the launch of the tour.

Beyoncé sang "Sorry" with the much-discussed "Becky with the good hair" lyric and other tracks from her new album, as well as her hits including "Drunk In Love," "Single Ladies," and "Naughty Girl."

Talking to the audience about daughter Blue Ivy, Beyoncé shared: "We were driving to rehearsal today and she said 'Mommy, are we going to your work?' And it reminded me that I dreamed of this day my whole life." She then thanked her fiercely loyal Beyhive fanbase.

During one costume change, "Purple Rain" by Prince was played to the audience as a big purple screen rotated onstage. Later, before singing her hit song "Halo" she said: "Thank you Prince for your beautiful music," as well as thanking God, Jay Z and Blue Ivy.

Meanwhile Jay Z was spotted
looking very relaxed in Miami on Tuesday afternoon and was also at his wife's rehearsal at the Marlins Park venue the night before.

The couple are seemingly in a good place despite lyrics in Lemonade like, "This is your final warning ... . If you try this s--- again, you gon' lose your wife."

"They definitely went through a rough patch a couple years ago, but they came out stronger in the end," a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE. Renewing their wedding vows in fall 2014, "I think they almost wanted to prove to everyone that they wouldn't break up," adds the source.

{blackbabes} Gabrielle Union says black actors don’t stand a chance

https://nyppagesix.files.wordpress.com/2016/04/513096232.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&w=915
 

Gabrielle Union, who starred in the Sundance hit "The Birth of a Nation," says there aren't enough Hollywood roles for black actors.

"Half the time, [African-Americans] don't even get the opportunity to fail . . . At least let me audition, so you can say I just wasn't good enough," she told Ocean Drive magazine.

"Most times, black actors can't even get in the door," she adds.

"It's still grossly unequal — and that goes for the Latino, Asian, Middle Eastern and LGBT communities . . . We have a long, long way to go."

{blackbabes} Beyonce set to top chart with unconventional release

 

New York (AFP) - Pop superstar Beyonce's sixth album is expected to debut at number one on the US chart despite being available only for download and through one streaming service, Billboard said Wednesday.

The music industry journal, which publishes the weekly album charts on Sundays, said that Beyonce's "Lemonade" was likely to sell more than 450,000 copies before factoring in streaming in the week through Thursday.

Beyonce late Saturday released "Lemonade" -- after plenty of hints but no direct announcement -- exclusively on the Tidal streaming service led by her husband, rap mogul Jay-Z, during the broadcast of a film version of the album on cable network HBO.

Beyonce on Monday started selling the album for download on iTunes and other digital retailers but it remains off Tidal's larger competitors Spotify and Apple Music and a CD version will not come out until May 6.

Nielsen Music, which calculates the charts, factors in streaming, which has rapidly grown as a listening format, even if it generally brings in less revenue to artists than direct album sales.

If the forecast holds true on "Lemonade," Beyonce will have debuted at number one with all six of her solo albums.

Her last album, which was self-titled, was released in late 2013 without warning on iTunes and with no immediate physical copy -- a move that outraged brick-and-mortar retailers but which has become increasingly common for stars.

Her latest album, with themes of infidelity and the resilience of African-American women, marks a musically diverse turn for Beyonce with a song co-written with Led Zeppelin members and another track with a touch of country.

{blackbabes} Beyonce's Lemonade Is Headed To The Emmys

 

As if having the entire Internet, music world and news cycle gasping for breath after Beyoncé's Lemonade weren't enough, HBO is working to get the special an Emmy too.

Lemonade, which Beyonce called a "visual album," premiered as an hour-long special on the cable network on Saturday night as part of HBO's free preview weekend. Variety reports that HBO will be submitting the music special for Emmy consideration this year in the Variety Special category.

In addition to the Variety Special category, Variety speculates that Lemonade will be a "shoo-in" for lighting design/lighting direction category as well.

Everybody and their mother parodied Lemonade last night.

Beyoncé is no stranger to TVs most prestigious award, having been nominated twice before: once for her Super Bowl XLVII Halftime show in 2013, and for the "On the Run Tour" concert special she did with husband Jay Z.

Might this be the one that gives her a win?

{blackbabes} Kelly Rowland: I Take Being a Mother ‘One Day at a Time’

 

There's one common virtue all good parents possess — and it's a virtue Kelly Rowland once feared she was missing.

"When I found out that I was going to be a mother, I was the mother who didn't know that I had patience," she told PEOPLE while attending the Safe Kids Day 2016 event in Culver City, California, on Sunday. "I was really scared about being a mother, just simply because I didn't think I had enough."

But fortunately for Rowland, her trepidation about her shortcomings practically melted when she gave birth to son Titan Jewell.

"When my son was born, I was like, 'Oh my God, I don't know where this patience came from!' " she says with a laugh. "I was really happy, and that made me feel better about being a mom."

Kelly Rowland Kids Safe Day

Not that being a first-time mom to 17-month-old Titan has been an entirely easy road to navigate.

"When I go to the pediatrician and he shows me this whole list of how to keep my kid safe, I'm like, 'Wait a minute, I'm just learning how to breastfeed! I'm just learning how to do this, and I'm just learning how to do that. There's more instructions!?' "

But for Rowland much of being a mother is about being in the here and now.

"One day at a time," she says when asked what advice she'd give to a new mother. "I think that immediately, when I became pregnant, the first thing you think [about] is just doing a perfect job."

She adds, "You can't think about it like that because love is the perfect job. It's protecting them and making sure that they're happy and that they're going to be safe."

{blackbabes} Beyoncé and Jay Z 'Came Out Stronger in the End' After a Rocky Few Years, Says Source

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2015/news/151102/jay-z-768.jpg
 
 
The Bey-hive is still buzzing over all the bombshells dropped in Lemonade, but Beyoncé and Jay Z have put the drama behind them.

"They definitely went through a rough patch a couple years ago, but they came out stronger in the end," a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE.

On Beyoncé's sixth studio album,
infidelity is a major theme throughout many of the tracks (the witch-hunt is still on for "Becky with the good hair"), but forgiveness and recommitment is also featured prominently.

In 2014, whispers of an
impending split reached a fevered pitch after video leaked of the "Formation" singer's sister Solange attacking her brother-in-law in an elevator after the Met Ball.

At the time, sources told PEOPLE fashion designer Rachel Roy provoked Solange.

On Saturday, Roy posted a
photo on Instagram seemingly identifying herself as "Becky," but the designer released a statement Tuesday denying she is the woman at the center of the cheating rumors. Singer Rita Ora – after being attacked by Beyoncé fans for possibly being "Becky" as well – denied the accusations on Twitter, saying she has "nothing but the [utmost] respect for Beyonce."

After spending the summer touring together, Beyoncé and Jay Z
renewed their vows in fall 2014. "I think they almost wanted to prove to everyone that they wouldn't break up," says the source.

Since then, the duo have put on a united front, spending time with their 4-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and traveling as a family. At the Super Bowl (where Beyoncé performed during the halftime show), the rapper "was her biggest fan," says the source. "They were very affectionate all weekend and he helped her celebrate after her big performance."

Adds the source: "Jay's been very supportive of Beyoncé."

{blackbabes} Alicia Keys to debut new music at Champions League Final

 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Alicia Keys will debut new music from her next album during the first-ever live musical performance as a part of the opening ceremony for the UEFA Champions League Final in Italy next month.

UEFA and Pepsi announced that the Grammy-winning singer will be the first musical act to perform as a part of the final, which is aired in more than 220 countries.

The singer has been working on a follow-up to her 2012 studio album "Girl on Fire," but she was coy about the new songs she'll be performing on May 28.

"I have to leave it as a surprise for sure 'cause that's ... part of the fun of it," Keys said in a phone interview from New York on Tuesday. "But you're definitely going to hear some new music."

The multi-platinum singer, songwriter and pianist was feeling the energy and excitement of spring as she talked about the upcoming performance and new music. The mother of two is also going to be the musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" on May 7 and will be a judge on the next season of "The Voice," alongside Blake Shelton, Adam Levine and Miley Cyrus.

"It's such a fresh time for music. To me, it's my favorite time," Keys said.

She'll have a global stage to introduce her new music to millions of football fans worldwide from the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan. And as the inaugural performance for the opening ceremony, she said wants to put her own creative stamp on the show.

"It's pretty insane. I know there is going to be 80,000 people there in person and people are all over the world are going to witness it and watch this and celebrate," Keys said. "It's a huge space to fill."

Music, Keys said, transcends language, so she's excited to perform for fans all around Europe.

"No matter what you speak, you understand. You understand the emotion, you understand the feeling," she said. "And I think that's what is so magical about music, what makes us love it so much."

Keys also said she is looking forward to returning to Italy, a place that feels like home to her.

"My mother's family is from Italy, so whenever I go, I always feel the most loved," Keys said. "I feel like it's a homecoming of love in a lot of ways."

{blackbabes} Rita Ora: I didn’t have an affair with Jay Z

 

Rita Ora has denied having an affair with Jay Z and that she was "Becky with the good hair" in Beyoncé's "Lemonade."

After Rita appeared to be taunting Beyonce on her social media by posting a picture of herself in a bra decorated with lemons, she was deluged with angry messages from Beyoncé fans.

Ora then took to Twitter to insist the rumors are not true.

"I never usually address tabloid gossip but let me be clear, these rumours are false," she wrote.

"I have nothing but the upmost respect for Beyonce. Let's continue enjoying Lemonade."

Ora also sent the Beyhive into a frenzy by posting a movie poster of Elizabeth Taylor's 1973 movie "Ash Wednesday," a film about a beautiful woman whose husband doesn't love her and who tries to tempt him back by getting plastic surgery.

What does the future hold for Barry (Grant Gustin) and Iris (Candice Patton) on "The Flash" — as well as the army of WestAllen fans who have been waiting for their dream couple to finally get together? From the sound of it, some very good things.

Speaking to the press at a screening for the April 26 episode of "The Flash," executive producer Andrew Kreisberg says, "I think you can expect some twists and turns in that, but you can expect it to be moving steadily forward."

"This whole season has been about Iris, whether she realizes it or not, trying to take a step forward," Kreisberg explains. "She really did love Eddie (Rick Cosnett) and they probably would have a life together — and a good one, if everything hadn't happened in the finale."

Of course, fans knows how that ended up, with Eddie sacrificing himself to save the world from Eobard Thawne (Tom Cavanagh). Losing the love of her life devastated Iris. With that in mind, quickly moving her into a relationship with Barry — regardless of the comic book history the two share — would have been a bad idea.

"We couldn't just slam them together. It would've been a disservice to Eddie's character and everything that happened between them," Kreisberg says. "So we sort of left it on the simmer all season long."

As it's been simmering, the universe is seemingly going out of its way to tell these two they're destined to be together. Between the newspaper headline from the future and Barry's jaunt to Earth-2, the WestAllen love story has practically become a character unto itself on the show.

When will it come to pass, though? That's one question you're going to have to wait to get an answer on. While relations between Barry and Iris may be "moving steadily forward," there's a number of other things that need to take priority. Who can think about dating when Zoom (Teddy Sears) is trying to destroy you?

"The Flash" airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.

{blackbabes} Beyoncé's 'Lemonade' hits iTunes, Amazon

 

Tidal holdouts can now experience Beyoncé's latest.

Lemonade is available to download on both iTunes and Amazon, after being sold exclusively on Tidal for 24 hours. The visual album, released Saturday, will continue to stream exclusively on Tidal, and will not be released to Apple Music or other streaming services.

A CD/DVD set is also available for pre-order on Amazon, with an expected release date of May 6.

Beyoncé premiered Lemonade's hour-long visual on HBO Saturday night, generating more than 1.8 million tweets worldwide, according to Twitter. The album has so far received rave reviews and also caused a stir online, with themes of marital strife and alleged infidelity (apparently about husband Jay Z) pervading its 12 songs.

The pop star released her last surprise effort — a 14-song, 17-video self-titled album — exclusively on iTunes in December 2013. She has since released new videos such as this year's Formation on Tidal, which Jay Z bought for $56 million last year along with its parent company, Aspiro.

Lemonade's 24-hour exclusivity is a relatively short window compared to Beyoncé's peers. Rihanna's Anti was only available on Tidal for a week after its late January release, while Kanye West's The Life of Pablo lived exclusively on the streaming service for nearly two months before he released it to other platforms this month.

{blackbabes} Will Smith, AMPAS Prez & ‘Independence Day’ Cast Among White House Correspondents’ Dinner Guests

 

The final White House Correspondents' Dinner of President Barack Obama's administration takes place on Saturday but the star power of the guest list is only now truly coming together. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith may not have attended the Oscars this year but they're coming to the WHCD as guests of ABC, I've learned.

And there will be a bit of a worldsavers throwback to the 1990s reunion as well – thanks to Fox News Channel.

Today FNC  once again held on to their title as the tables to watch with the news that Independence Day: Resurgence cast members like Jeff Goldblum will be their guests along with AMPAS President Cheryl Boone Isaacs. MPAA boss Chris Dodd will also be there breaking FNC bread on April 30  with megastar Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier and other big names from Roger Ailes' team. The 90th annual WHCD marks the debut of Comedy Central's Larry Wilmore as host. While 1996's Independence Day was a breakout role for Smith, the star does not appear in the sequel, which is out June 24 from 20th Century Fox. Smith's supervillain team-up pic Suicide Squad opens on August 5 from Warner Bros.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton may be staying away this year to save their best lines for the marquee slot in 2017 but in typical DC manner of fact melding with fiction, Netflix's political drama House of Cards and ABC's Scandal are back in the room again. HoC's Michael Kelly returns as a guest of Thomson Reuters at the nerd prom while Nerve Campbell is at one of TIME's tables at the Washington Hilton.

While it feels like the overall star power is dimmed from past years, ABC has stacked the Shonda Rhimes deck for April 30 with the TGIT EP a guest of the Disney-owned net. Powerhouse producer Rhimes is joined by repeat attendee Kerry Washington, Scandal's POTUS Tony Goldwyn and co-star Scott Foley. Pushing their breakout FBI drama, NBC News has Blindspot star Jaimie Alexander coming as well as Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski and a lot of other talking heads. Priyanka Chopra, the star of ABC's new FBI drama Quantico, is a guest of TIME in her WHCD debut.

No doubt like the comedic remarks and audio visual gags expected from headliner Obama and host Wilmore, big media is still finessing who will be bringing their Hollywood to the ballroom. In the meantime, here is the Tinseltown guest list so far – we'll add more as we get them
