Chris Brown took to twitter to defend his highly criticized rendition of ‘This Christmas’ during Taraji & Terrence’s ‘White Hot Holiday’ Special:

Taraji defended the singer, saying:

We agree with Taraji!  The new dad is making moves to totally transform his life, this one little hiccup shouldn’t derail him. Plus, those dance moves y’all? He made up for being a little off key.

Glad you’re keeping your head up Chris!

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West are in a giving mood after receiving the gift of their baby boy recently.

As Kim breastfed her baby last night (literally), she was inspired by a little girl who wanted to receive 1000 shoe donations on behalf of an organization that helped her during Hurricane Katrina called  Soles 4 Souls.

Kim caught the segment on Dish Nation & asked her twitter followers to help her track the girl down.

This donation is certainly on brand for the shoe obsessed couple. Glad to see them use their passions for the greater good of the world.

Tis the season for giving!

Kendrick Lamar is thrilled that Barack Obama  selected his song ‘How Much A Dollar Cost’ for his favorite song of the year.

TMZ caught up with the rapper, who is nominated for 11 Grammys next year, at the airport.

The reporter asked him how he feels about the presidential nod:

“It’s great man,” he explains. “Help as many people as you can, and you’re gonna live forever’, he philosophically continues.

The interviewer then asked, “Can you guess Michelle Obama’s favorite song? She said ‘Uptown Funk.'”

Kendrick smiled before getting in his car saying “That’s a good one.”

Beauties, what was your favorite song of the year?

Raven-Symone was celebrating her 30th Birthday on ‘The View,’ when her friend Jussie Smollett showed up to playfully shade the host.

Jussie begins, ‘As an African-American, because I am African-American,‘ while getting in the Cosby Show star’s face.

Raven explained, ‘He calls me all the time! He comes for me everyday about that and every continent,’ she laments, reflecting on her foolery of the past.

OOP! Smollett was clearly not here for the statement that Symone notoriously told Oprah during an interview.

But it appears it was all in good fun between buddies. At least we know she has friends in her life who are trying to correct her thinking!

But there’s an even bigger question here, where are Raven’s eyebrows????

In an interview with the Today Show, John Legend opens up about his excitement over his unborn child.

“You just have this little human that’s a product of yours and your partner’s love,” Legend said. “And I think that’s really incredible to see ourselves reflected in our little child that we get to raise and teach and nurture, and I’m excited to do that,” he exclusively tells Today.

The Oscar winner explains that he and wife Chrissy Teigen have been discussing names since they first broke the news they were expecting in October, but what is most important is that the baby is healthy.

“You just want them to be healthy,” he added. “As long as they’re healthy, then after that you just take care of the rest. You try to be a good parent.”

Along with a baby in the oven, John also has an album in the works.

New baby and new album next year? Sounds like so much to look forward to!
