VH1 to Air TV Movie Based on Multi-Platinum Group TLC

Building off the success of the scripted movie Single Ladies and its follow-up hit series, VH1 is getting into the TV movie business with a series of scripted bio-pics featuring musicians and pop culture icons. The dramatic story behind the legendary ‘90s R&B/hip-hop/pop trio TLC will be featured in the first TV movie for VH1 in this series. The two surviving members of the group, Chilli and Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, have signed on as consultants and executive producers for the movie. Acclaimed screenwriter Kate Lanier (“What’s Love Got To Do With It” and “Beauty Shop”) has signed on to pen the bio-pic.

Christian Louboutin Spring/Summer 2012 Roller-Boat Spikes Flat Sneakers

Christian Louboutin continues with the spikes for their Spring/Summer 2012 Men’s Footwear Collection. Regarded as the more casual rendition of the Rollerboy Spikes loafer, the Roller-boat mens sneaker retailing at about $1,095 features a black woven calf leather upper covered with silver studs on a thick rubber sole.  I prefer these over the high top one’s, but still couldn’t see myself wearing them more than a few times.  They just seem like a shoe that sits on display within your shoe collection.  Now if I had the bread like that  to cop thousand dollar shoes, that’s a different story!!

3.1 Phillip Lim Braided Biker Jacket

The Watch the Throne tour made its stop in Kanye West’s hometown of Chicago this week. During his downtime, Kanye and Jay spent their time connecting with the fans by visiting random locations throughout the city. Jay-Z was spotted in a Givenchy leather and shearling biker jacket retailing at $4,070, while Kanye sported the 3.1 Phillip Lim braided black leather biker jacket priced at $1,750. It appears Kanye had his customized, as the jacket originally features silver hardware detailing, his is all black out.

For the Ladies: Yves Saint Laurent Black and Gold Robyn Wedges

Yves Saint Laurent’s Robyn Wedge   priced at $890.00 is stylish shoe made of an all leather closed toed creation with a felt tip at the heel collar. The front is laced-up with a padded tongue and YSL logo stitched inside.  I know a lot ladies be on their shoe game, and this screams sexy!!! How would you rock them for your man??

Updated: Astro Hasn’t Signed Any Deals Yet…

Today, Astro from X-Factor USA who was voted off last week, made an appearance on the Wendy Williams show earlier today and discussed an array of things from Simon questioning his arrogance, to whether or not he had gotten an offer from Jay-Z’s RocNation.   He confirmed that although there has been much speculation about deals being presented to him, he has not signed any paper work or had any meetings.  Astro, is currently being managed by his mother and step-dad.  He’ll be picked up by a MAJOR label, but I’m sure he still has contract obligations to fill for X-Factor.

Word on the Street: Astro Signs to RocNation….

Word on the street is that Jay-Z and the RocNation crew has picked up Astro, the 15 year rap sensation from Brooklyn, who took the X-Factor USA by storm with his passion, creativity, and ability to deliver solid and thought provoking performances.  This comes as to no surprise to me, because Astro just seems like the type to have Jay and Kanye as mentors, because dude got some serious skills to only be 15, he raps better than most dudes out now.  The roster that Roc Nation is building has been an impressive cast to say the least, J. Cole, Willow Smith, Bridget Kelly is garnering major attention, and now Astro.  I think he will fit right in, and hopefully have the guidance and nurturing to become the next big thing!!
