LisaRaye McCoy opens up about the drama that went down before Stacey Dash decided to leave VH1′s Single Ladies in the newest issue of JET magazine. In the May 28th issue, the actress addressed the rumors of her and Stacey Dash getting into arguments on set as well as which celebrity she had to let go as a friend:
ON THE DRAMA THAT WENT DOWN ON SET w/ STACEY DASH:
“Yes, there was a disagreement over a scene. And it really wasn’t with me. It was with the director. I think it was about 2 or 3AM and we’d been shooting all damn day. Stacey tried to argue with the director about a line. And I’m like: “Girl, if you don’t say what the director wants you to say.” It wasn’t that serious at first, but it went there.”
“It’s a bunch of women on the set. We might all be on our damn period at any given point. I just wanted us to move forward. Then the argument took on a life of its own. The show decided to use it for publicity. They just ran with it.”
ON THE CELEBRITY FRIEND SHE HAD TO LET GO:
“Duane Martin. I introduced him to my ex-husband [former Turks & Caicos Premier Michael Misick], he got buddy-buddy with him and then turned against me. Just recently, this fool Duane up and sold a building he and I bought awhile ago in Los Angeles, without asking…I don’t care if we’re not friends, just don’t try to f**k me in the interim.”
When I heard about him in the middle of Will & Jada’s divorce rumors, I tweeted: sounds familiar. He really aint got enough business. [SOURCE]
In the interview, LisaRaye also talks about her beef with Vivica Fox as well as moving on without Stacey Dash on the Single Ladies cast. You can find her full interview in the newest issue which is on newsstands now.

No beef here. While the internet streets love to put Roc Nation chick #2–Rita Ora–against her almost doppelganger & original Roc Nation princess Rihanna, there’s no love lost between the two singers. Pics of Rihanna and Rita sharing some chick love at tonight’s Watch The Throne concert….and news on Rih’s Battleship opening weekend number….
Rita Ora tweeted the above fun & kissy pic tonight as fellow Roc Nation fam offered up the love. And this odd tweet:
@rihanna hatin a$$ biatch!!!! Mwah!!!!!!
The twosome–along with Trey Songz & Kim K.–are in London for the series of Jay & ‘Ye‘s WTT concerts at O2 arena. Check out pics of Rih looking cute in her ABE and headpiece leaving her hotel before the concert with her slipper wearing friend Jen Rosales:




She showed love to her fans before hopping in a getaway van:


Oh, and she rode the Tube (London’s public train system) again to get there:

Gotta love it.

Fun times.
By the way, Rih’s big film Battleship premiered this weekend and is estimated to come in second place to the current champ Avengers. It’s expected to gross $25.1 million for the full weekend, according to The Hollywood Reporter, well below it’s hopeful and predicted $35 mill.
The Randomness:
1. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg got married yesterday (Friday)–1 day after his company went public–to his girlfriend of 8 years, Priscilla Chan. He made the surprise announcement on….his Facebook Page of course. Peep his page for the wedding pic (is this his backyard?).

Bad Boy couple Cassie & Diddy–who are still acting like they are only "colleagues" and nothing more–were spotted aboard a yacht in the south of France. Diddy loves to do it up every year for the Cannes Film festival. And this year is no different. Check out Cassie’s stunning pics inside..


In a gorgeous gown with her new boobs on display, singer Cassie accompanied her boss/boo aboard a yacht for a dinner party in Cannes last night. She looked stunning as usual as the event was sponsored by Giorgio Armani and was a J/P Haiti Carnival Haitian Benefit.
The two exchanged "Damn Baby" & "Thank you baby" tweets this past week when Diddy RT’d a sexy BTS shot from Cassie’s upcoming photoshoot. So I guess they’re getting a bit more open about their "relationship".
Regardless, Cassie was right by Diddy’s side for his dinner party last night:



Looking ridiculously hot.
And Mr. Combs didn’t look so bad himself:



Since he’s over in France, he’s missing his oldest son Justin’s prom. But that didn’t stop him from tweeting pics he was sent and said "Like father Like son":


Nice! We see you J…

Last night, Lil’ Kim’s "Return of The Queen" tour hit The Paradise Theater in the Bronx where she was joined by Eve, Missy Elliot & Pep on stage. See pics inside and check out Kim performing with "Mob Wives" star Drita.

Lil’ Kim’s star-studded "Return Of The Queen" tour made it’s way to NYC last night. Her longtime friends and fellow rapstresses like Drita, Somaya Reece and a very pregnant Yandy Smith hit up the performance:

The Queen brought out some of her musical besties like Missy, Eve, Salt & Pepa and "Mob Wives" star Drita.



Juelz Santana also hit the stage with The Queen.


It was a sold out show for the Queen Bee. It’s great to see female rappers unite.

Has The Queen officially returned?
Watch Lil’ Kim, Eve and Missy perform "Hot Boys" and "What Ya’ll Want"
Watch Lil’ Kim and Drita (this chick is serious about wanting to become a rapper isn’t she?) perform "It’s All About The Benjamins"

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are across the pond in the UK hitting up events and prepping for the Watch The Throne 5-night O2 arena stint kicking off tomorrow night. Check out their pics from the The FiFi UK Fragrance Awards inside…


Kanye West was spotted outside of his hotel in London earlier today. Love a man in a tailored white jacket. Lookin’ good ‘Ye.

And then my fashion high was curbed. He later returned to escort his navy maxi dress wearing girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, out for the evening.

The pair were attending The FiFi UK Fragrance Awards held at The Brewery in East London.

It’s perfect timing for Kim and Kanye in London as he prepares for his O2 concerts and she launches her new fragrance all at the same time. And of course….the cameras never stop rolling…

With Tia Mowry announcing this week she will not be returning for season 6 of "The Game," and reports saying Pooch Hall will not either, BET networks has issued a statement explaining the situation. Deets inside..
BET, the home network of "The Game," said in a statement today that Pooch isn’t returning because of his “involvement on a new project.” That new project is the Showtime pilot “Ray Donovan.”
The network went on to say it “is in the process of reworking the casting and storyline” and hopes Hall and Mowry “will make several guest appearances.”
Still calling B.S. on this ish. Why? Because Coby Bell–who plays the major role of Jason Pitts–has also played a mid-level role on USA network’s "Burn Notice" for the past few years now. All while still working on "The Game." So it is possible. Not to mention many of the non-lead actors like Meagan Good, Brandy and others have several different projects outside of the show.
Everybody just needs to keep it 100 about what really went down. And as for the show continuing without the main two characters–just not seeing it.
Oh wells. It was fun while it lasted.


Deuces.
