Rhianna Rocks African Inspired Bantu Knots.....

Rhianna has always been known to push the envelop when it comes to fashion. She's never afraid to try new things. We have seen her in all forms of hairstyles, from short to long and different shades of colors, but at last night 's iHeart radio awards where she took home four awards, she rocked the heck out of the African inspired Bantu knots and i must say......she looked absolutely fabulous!


RiRi won big at the event. She took home the artist of the year award as well as song of the year, Best fan army and Hip hop/R&B song of the year.

The hip hop princess, had on a sheer lace Givenchy dress that showed a little too much skin and completed her look with silver jewelry and a green lip color but in all, her Bantu knots was the business.
Congratulations Ms RiRi!!!!

 Former 'Scandal' star, Columbus Short, 31 who announced last week that he will not be returning to the show, can't seem to get away from legal woes. It will be recalled that Mr Short, was in the news for allegedly knocking out a man at a family function in March, in which legal action was dropped because of a settlement agreement.

In 2010, a fight on a basket ball court at a Los Angeles gym led to a charge of battery that was resolved when he pleaded no contest to a lesser charge and was sentenced to three years of probation. Well, he is in the news once again for all the wrong reasons.

  His estranged wife, Tanee McCall-Shorts has filled a court documents alleging that Columbus broke in and trashing her home despite retraining order that barres him from the property.

If this is true , the actor might really be heading to jail for violating court orders.

Tanee, 33, had filled a restraining order against the actor sometimes in April, Claiming that Mr Short has at different occasions physically abused her in front of their 2 year old daughter. During the last altercation, she said he held a knife to her neck and threatened to kill himself and her. This is his third arrest, regarding constant altercation with his wife.....




Ok bro, get it together, it's a definite, NO! NO! to put your hands on a woman. If it's not working, GET OUT and there is absolutely nothing worth you taking your life over!!!!! Get some help....We love you as an actor....DO NOT THROW IT AWAY!!!!

"I am a fan. I bring something to the table,
it's fun and i can afford it. I live in L.A,
that's one thing that makes it interesting"

Rap mogul, Sean "P Diddy" Combs took to his twitter account to declare his interest right after Silver's announcement.

                                                            Sean "P Diddy" Combs


"I will always be a Knicks fan" he said, "but i am a business man....#DiddyBuyTheClippers....#NameYourPrice

Kaling had this to say..... "I am interested in buying the Clippers,
 the uniform will be the same but bedazzled" she promised.

Whether or not these celebrities are ready and serious about buying, some clipper's fans already know whom they want to own the team.
