AMBER ROSE COVERS KING MAGAZINE JULY/AUGUST ISSUE



Amber Rose covers the July/August edition of the infamous KING MAG where she dishes from her relationships with Wiz Khalifa & Kanye West himself. The official cover hits newsstands May 31, 2011...just in time for Memorial Day. Check out the interview below.

What do you think is the perception of Amber Rose?
I spoke to people, asking why do I constantly get ridiculed. Is it because I was a stripper?
Well that doesn’t help that perception much.
But they said, “No, people don’t care about that, it’s that they think that you’re with all these men, when you’re not.” I’m only taking that from certain people that I spoke to. Maybe it’s that too, or that I’m very comfortable with my body. I can be topless on Miami Beach, that doesn’t make me a whore. That’s an everyday thing on Miami Beach. It’s just such a big deal because I’m in the public eye.
If you’re cognizant of these things, why go from one public relationship into another one with Wiz Khalifa?
Let’s put it like this, I promised myself that I would never in my life ever again deal with a man in the music industry…ever!
But?
I met him to give him a pair of sunglasses from my company. You know, he’s from PA, I’m from PA—I wanted to look out for him. We exchanged numbers over Twitter…
There’s something to be said about Twitter hookups. Continue.
[Laughs] Yeah, but it was strictly business for me to give him the shades. He calls and tells me he’s in LA and can he come and get the shades. I told him I’m about to go to Runyon and work out and I’ll contact him after. He says he has the day off and I told him he could come to Runyon with me because I’m going by myself. It would be cool to have some company. He said, cool.
You guys connected during that workout session, then?
We hung out, we were friends. That’s when I posted that picture [on Twitter] saying, “me and my little brother Wiz.” ‘Cause I was like, “I’m not dealing with no young rapper.”
So when did that relationship turn into incest?
[Laughs] I chilled with him for two weeks. We didn’t kiss or nothing. Then he left for Pittsburgh and when he left I was so lost without him. He has to come back, I just miss him, and I don’t look at him like a little brother.
Why is that?
He’s just so positive. He’s one of those people that in any situation he can always see the brighter side to something. And he always has a smile on his face, he’s never in a bad mood, he’s super talented and smart, he’s a boss. Just being around him I realized he’s not no little boy like I thought he was. He’s a grown man about his business. His music alone, he’s not in the same circle as those other dudes, he’s on some other shit. So when he left we just talked on the phone constantly and that’s when we realized we were really falling for each other. And I was like when this young boy gets back from Pittsburgh; he is definitely getting some…definitely [laughs].


Points awarded for honesty. Does it make sense to ask who made the first move?
[Laughs] Ah shit, it was mutual. It was that energy and that feeling, we really fell for each other really hard really fast.
What’s the difference between this relationship with Wiz and your last with Kanye?
The thing of it is…how can I say this without sounding crazy or mean? I’m sorry.
No need to apologize, the floor is yours.
There’s no comparison in personalities. You know when people say how do you go from Kanye to Wiz Khalifa, that’s a downgrade. But the only question I can ask them is: have you ever dated Kanye? Because I have, and believe me, I did not downgrade at all. Not in any aspect, at all.


JENNIFER LOPEZ 'MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN'


Jennifer Lopez has been declared the World's Most Beautiful Woman by People magazine. The New York-born singer and actress, a mother of 3-year-old twins and judge on TV's "American Idol," appears on the cover of the magazine's Most Beautiful issue, on newsstands today

According to M&C, Lopez told the magazine that she feels proud to receive the title at the age of 41. "I feel not worthy, you know? I feel happy and proud. Proud that I'm not 25!" she said.


Lopez also stated that keeping up her looks is no easy feat. “The thing is, it's part of my job,” she admitted. “I don't want anybody thinking it's easy. It does take time and it's hard work. HDTV wide-screen is nobody's friend!”
Jennifer Lopez’s single, “On the Floor,” featuring Pitbull, has been doing very well on the charts. Her upcoming album, titled Love? is set to be released in May.

Jenny from the block also stopped by Ellen earlier this week to promote the album, talk American Idol and the current contestants, and also play a dance game. Check how it went down below!

LADY GAGA BRINGS 'JUDAS' TO CANNES FILM FESTIVAL


Check out Gaga performing for Canal on the Croisette during the 64th Annual Cannes Film Festival on May 11, 2011 in Cannes, France. I absolutely love her stage presence.
The New York-born star is currently promoting her second album, Born This Way, which is set for release later this month.
Next stop on the tour is London, where she is set to perform a secret show this week, ahead of her show at Radio One's Big Weekend in Carlisle on Sunday.
The Born This Way singer has certainly been jetting around of late.
At the weekend, she played the Robin Hood Foundation Annual Gala in New York, just days after performing in Mexico City and jetting to Los Angeles to mentor young hopefuls on American Idol.

SAY WHAT: ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER & MARIA SCHRIVER SEPARATE

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have separated after 25 years of marriage, The Los Angeles Times reports.

Shriver, 55, moved out of their Brentwood, Calif. mansion and has been living apart from her husband for a "few weeks," according to the paper. The couple, who wed in 1986, have four children together: Katherine, 21, Christina, 19, Patrick, 17 and Christopher, 13.

"This has been a time of great personal and professional transition for each of us," the couple said in a statement obtained by the Times. "After a great deal of thought, reflection, discussion and prayer, we came to this decision together. At this time, we are living apart while we work on the future of our relationship.
"We are continuing to parent our four children together. They are the light and the center of both of our lives," the couple added. "We consider this a private matter and neither we nor any of our friends or family will have further comment. We ask for compassion and respect from the media and the public."

The news comes during a big transition period for the couple. Schwarzenegger, 63, stepped down as the Governor of California in January after serving two terms as the head of state. Shriver, a former TV journalist for NBC and the niece of President John F. Kennedy, lost her father in January.

We wish them the best and hope they can reconcile. Did not see this one coming. SN: why divorce when you are 63? FEEDBACK?!

Lady Gaga gave her Little Monsters another preview of her new album, "Born This Way," by releasing the racing advance single "The Edge of Glory" online today (May 9), with another single, "Hair," set for release next Monday (May 16). "The Edge of Glory" digital track was released exclusively to iTunes, while streaming audio of the song was posted on the pop star's VEVO channel.

Gaga announced the release of "The Edge of Glory" and showcased the single artwork, which shows the singer prying her mouth open, on Twitter yesterday.

Fans who have purchased all of the "Born This Way" singles can use the Complete My Album feature in iTunes to buy the full-length at a reduced price.

"The Edge of Glory's" debut comes less than a week after the biblically- and biker-inspired music video for "Born This Way's" second single, "Judas," was unveiled online. The track drops to No. 20 in its third week on the Hot 100. Check out the track below.



BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS 2011/ BEYONCE TO RECEIVE MILLENIUM AWARD

Beyoncé will be honored with Billboard Millennium Award at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards, it was announced today (May 9). The iconic performer and international star will receive the honor at the May 22 show, which will air on ABC at 8-11pm ET/PT from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The Billboard Millennium Award will recognize Beyoncé's career achievements and influence in the music industry, from her role as the frontwoman of Destiny's Child to her three-chart-topping solo albums, which have collectively earned her 16 Grammy awards and ASCAP's Pop Songwriter of the Year award. Previously, Billboard named Beyoncé its Woman of the Year in October 2009, and Top Female Artist of the Decade in December 2009.

Beyoncé's Billboard Milliennium Award will arrive just as the star puts the finishig touches on her fourth studio album, due out later this year. The album, whose debut single "Run the World (Girls)" premiered in April, will be her first since 2009's "I Am...Sasha Fierce," which sold 2.9 million copies, according to Nielsen Soundscan.
Of course, Beyoncé will not be the only star appearing at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards: Rihanna, the Black Eyed Peas, Keith Urban, Lady Antebellum, Cee Lo Green, Nicki Minaj, Pitbull and Taio Cruz make up the the stellar lineup of performers so far, with more to be announced soon.
Rihanna, Eminem, Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber lead the finalists for the 2011 Billboard Music Awards, which reflect Billboard's chart rankings based on key fan interactions with music, including album, single and digital sales, radio play, touring, streaming and social interactions on MySpace, Facebook and other popular online destinations for music. These measurements are tracked year-round by Billboard and its data partners. The awards will be based on the reporting period of February 28, 2010 through March 1, 2011. Top artists will be recognized in a variety of genres, including R&B, Rap, Pop, Country, Rock, Latin and Alternative.
Tickets for the Billboard Music Awards are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com. For up-to-the-minute updates on the show, visit Billboard.com/BBMA, or follow along on Twitter (twitter.com/billboarddotcom) and Facebook (facebook.com/billboard). {SOURCE}

SAY WHAT: WHITNEY HOUSTON BACK IN REHAB?

LOS ANGELES - Singer Whitney Houston is undergoing treatment again for drug and alcohol addiction, her spokeswoman said Monday.
The multiple Grammy Award-winning diva has enrolled in an out-patient program rather than a residential facility.
“Whitney Houston is currently in an out-patient rehab program for drug and alcohol treatment. Whitney voluntarily entered the program to support her long-standing recovery process,” publicist Jill Fritzo said.
Houston, 47, one of the top-selling female artists of all time with hits like “I Will Always Love You”, launched a comeback in late 2009 after battling drug addiction for years. But her performances on some legs of her 2010 concert tour proved troubling.
In the opening leg of her British tour a year ago, she appeared short of breath. In Paris she was hospitalized with a respiratory infection and postponed several dates. And in Australia she was panned by fans and critics.
In April 2010, she called media reports that she was using drugs again “ridiculous”.

Celebrity website TMZ.com said on Monday that Houston enrolled in the rehab program about 10 days ago, and is allowed to go out in public as long as she has a monitor.
TMZ cited an unidentified source as saying Houston was cleansing her system to get ready for a new movie. Details were not available.

GET BETTER SOON WHITNEY...WE LOVE YOU!!
