BARBARA WALTERS Who Made Barbara?s Final ?10 Most Fascinating People Of 2013? List?
I can NOT believe it. This will be Barbara Walters’ FINAL ‘10 Most Fascinating People of 2013‘ show. Like, ever. The iconic newswoman is retiring in 2014. I grew up watching the ’10 Most Fascinating People’ program every year; the idea that Barbara won’t be back next year with ten more fascinating people won’t sink […]

KERRY WASHINGTON Keeping Her Baby Bump Chic On ?Scandal?
Are you a ‘Scandal’ fan? If you are, then I take it you’ve heard about ABC’s decision to trim the current season of ‘Scandal’ by four episodes, according to Entertainment Weekly. This is often a bad sign, but not for this show: the ratings are still great. Although no reason was given for the shortened […]

Ashanti Gets BRAVE(HEART) About Nelly, Critics, & PETA At NYC Listening Party (Exclusive Interview!)
She may not have dropped a studio album since 2008, but the people (us included) still give a damn about what Ashanti's doing. And she's grateful for it. Check out pics and TheYBF.com's chit chat with the "I Got It" singer about Nelly and more from her listening party in NYC...
Last night at Jungle City Studios, which is owned by Alicia Keys & Swizz Beatz, Ashanti played her BRAVEHEART album--and sang along a bit--during an intimate listening session. TheYBF.com was on hand to see if she's still got it. And if you're an Ashanti fan, you probably won't be disappointed.
Since she's nursing a hairline fracture in her ankle after falling down in a club during the Holidays (that explains that Swarovski cystal pimp cane she's been toting around!), full length pics weren't allowed. But you get the gist of her cute look nonetheless. With her Momager Tina Douglas and little sis Shia on deck as usual, Ashanti gave the room a listen to her first album in six years (due out March 4th).
Afterwards, YBF Correspondent Shirley Vernae chatted with actress/singer about how Nelly plays into her life right now (via her music) and more.
On the struggle to remain relevant
"Having not put out a record since 2008, and still competing against a bunch of my peers, is a blessing and I'm really grateful for it. Being an artist this day in age and having the public and the BLOGS critique you and judge you without knowing facts, you have to be brave and strong. You have to be strong internally."
On her rumored break-ups to makeups with rapper Nelly
"Did Nelly inspire some records? Absolutely. It's just about being real, being honest and being brave. Writing about what I really felt and what I really went through. Yeah, he was part of it."
"I switched the subject [when asked on "106 & Park" the previous night] because he's doing him and I'm doing me, it's about Braveheart. If you want to find out what's going on with me and him, get the album on iTunes. Right now. March 4th."
On turning down major label offers and going independent
"To be completely honest, I couldn't fathom the idea of a 360 deal. I walked away from 7 offers from majors. At the time, the ink was over here. And it was just me. But this time, I get to be the Captain of the ship. Regardless of whatever happens, I'm happy about the music."
On those major furs she and Diddy (and Nelly) were rocking Super Bowl weekend
"I respect PETA. I really do. They are so passionate and I really do respect them for what they do. And I really DON'T want them to come for me!"

First Lady Michelle Obama GETS GORGE In CAROLINA HERRERA For White House State Dinner, Mary J Blige & More Attend
Tuesday night was the big White House State Dinner honoring French President Francois Hollande. And even though Hollande is currently embroiled in his second "alleged" affair that's being exposed in French tabloids, everyone carried on with eating, drinking and being merry.
But forget the French President's reported affair, get into First Lady Michelle Obama's stunning Carolina Herrera look inside...
While welcoming French President Francois Hollande to the North Protico of the White House for Tuesday night's State Dinner, Mrs. O looked amazing in a powder blue and dark navy lace Carolina Herrera number. She paired her look with blue and diamond Sutra earrings, and Mr. President seemed to love what he saw:
Ugh. How perfect are they?
Also in attendance: Bradley Cooper, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Stephen Colbert, Mindy Kalin, Jason Collins and plenty more.
Looking gorgeous, First Couple!
They sandwiched in Hollande at the dinner table, and reportedly cancelled the traditional evening dance--since their guest of honor was flying solo for the evening.
And plenty of celebs nabbed White House invites for the big State Dinner as well, including lady in red Mary J. Blige. And her husband Kendu. Other lucky attendees: Bradley Cooper, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Stephen Colbert, Mindy Kaling, Jason Collins and more.
BONUS:
Even First Dogs Bo & Sunny were flawless for the event. Mrs. O posted the above pic before the State Dinner and said, "Bon Appétit ".

Lady Gaga Opens Up About Sometimes Feeling 'Worthless'
Singer discusses being bullied as a child and her plan not to speak to the media 'for a very long time' on 'Oprah's Next Chapter.'
By Jocelyn Vena
<P><a href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/lady_gaga/artist.jhtml">Lady Gaga</a> confessed she wants to have enough children to form a <a href="/news/articles/1681179/lady-gaga-oprah-winfreys-next-chapter-own.jhtml">"soccer team"</a> when she sat down with talk show maven Oprah Winfrey for "Oprah's Next Chapter." In the intimate chat, which took place at Gaga's childhood home in New York City, the never-press-shy Gaga made another big announcement. </P><P> </P><P><embed src="http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:749701/cp~vid%3D749701%26uri%3Dmgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.com%3A749701" width="460" height="260" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" base="."></embed> </P><P> </P><P>"Other than this interview, Oprah, I don't intend to speak to anyone for a very long time. I have to shut out the noise," Mother Monster told Winfrey, according to <a href="http://www.gossipcop.com/oprah-lady-gaga-interview-2012-bullying-childhood-oprahs-next-chapter-recap-highlights-video/" target="_blank">Gossip Cop</a>. "The latest thing I do is I don't read a damn thing. No press, no television. If my mom calls and says, 'Did you hear about?' I don't want to know nothing about anything that is going on ... I shut it all off." </P><P> </P><P>Gaga's mother was on hand for parts of the interview, sharing that in Gaga's early days, her father thought she had a "screw loose" while she was performing at downtown New York nightclubs in her bra while lighting hairspray on fire. The superstar added that there's one thing about her current act that her mother isn't a big fan of. </P><P> </P><P>"She doesn't like when I swear," Gaga said, with her mother adding, "You're effective without it." </P><P> </P><P>Another part of the candid chat also focused on Gaga's youth, during which she said she was frequently bullied. "There really is no difference between the bully and the victim," she said. "I would like to do a psychological autopsy on as many bullies and victims as possible ... How do we understand what breeds hatred, what breeds anger?" </P><P>She added that despite all "all the praise you receive, something inside of you is scarred by those experiences. ... Sometimes I feel worthless." </P><P>Parts of the special were also filmed at Harvard University last month. </P><P> </P><P>The singer and the talk show host were on hand at the prestigious college to launch Gaga's <a href="/news/articles/1680176/lady-gaga-launches-born-this-way-foundation-harvard.jhtml"><i>Born This Way</i> Foundation</a>. </P><P> </P><P>"I just have one thing to say before we get started: We got Oprah! ... Thank you from all of us — from my entire team, from my mother, from the bottom of the hearts of so many people who believe in what we're doing today," Gaga said at the launch. She explained that the foundation seeks to empower the youth of America, adding, "How can we inspire young people to know they have the power to be brave?"</p>

Erykah Badu & Riccardo Tisci On Their GIVENCHY Collaboration, "We Belong To Each Other" + K. Michelle's "Can't Raise A Man" (VIDEO)
Erykah Badu and Riccado Tisco discuss fashion and music in the latest issue of V Magazine. See highlights from the interview inside and watch K. Michelle's latest video inside....
As previously reported, Riccardo Tisci of GIVENCHY selected madame flyness Erykah Badu as his muse for the Spring campaign. And in V Magazine, the two sat down and discuss their work together and how music and fashion connect.
V Erykah, did you know Riccardo before you got the call to appear in the ads?
ERYKAH BADU I just got a call from him. There’s not a big backstory to it. Unless you want to include that I’m a big fan of his work.
RICCARDO TISCI I knew her as a musician and an artist. And she is a real artist. We had crossed paths before once in New York but never really knew each other. I asked her and she said yes. I was very, very happy. I wanted to represent the collection with style and elegance and I think she is perfect for that.
V In addition to being an incredible artist, you’re also quite a fashion magpie. Are clothes another mode of expression for you?
EB It’s all art to me. I just really enjoy expressing myself artistically in any genre. Whether it be music or cooking or hair. Costume, makeup, fashion. It’s just fun exploring all of the little things inside of my head and seeing them manifest. I would liken fashion or styling to putting a lump of clay in the middle of the table and carving away. And there’s something underneath. Layering and silhouettes. A pair of earrings. I think it comes down to my favorite things and how they come together. That’s fun when that happens.
RT And this is one of the great things that drew me to Erykah. Aside from being quite talented, and the queen of the ’90s. I was thinking of someone who was quite elegant and urban. She’s always been this way. She has a very good sense of style, she’s great with jewelry. Her look can be quite feminine with the turban and a dress but also masculine with flat shoes or trainers. It all works.
V There have been a few musicians—Rihanna, Miley, Gaga—appearing in fashion campaigns this year. Why do you think that is?
EB I think that we keep each other moving creatively, especially those that have been in this game awhile. To see our fellow artists like Riccardo and Donatella choose musicians only shows that we are all connected. My creative song is married to Riccardo’s creative eye, perhaps because I can sing a lot of songs about these designs and ideas that he has. I think it’s just the spirit of where we are as a whole tribe of humans. Visual expresses music expresses theme expresses theory. Everything goes together to more broadly express what the artist is trying to say. There’s no way I can express what I’m trying to say without the help of some visual artist completing my sentences. I think right now we’re completing each other’s sentences, artistically.
Read the full interview here.
In new music videos.....
K. Michelle stars in the Benny Boom-directed video for “Can’t Raise a Man,” from her hit debut Rebellious Soul.
Fans of the former "LAHH" star can pick up her mixtape "Still No Fucks Given" and she hits the road with Robin Thicke on February 21st.

Red Hot Chili Peppers And Nine Inch Nails Get Owned By Bizarrely Apt Parody Songs

DEEP SIGH: DMX Gearing Up For Boxing Match With George Zimmerman! [UPDATED]
Rapper DMX will be hitting the ring with George Zimmerman for a celebrity boxing match. Weigh in on this ish inside....
In a desperate act to make money, Georger Zimmerman, who was found NOT GUILTY of murdering Trayvon Martin, will participate in a celebrity boxing match against DMX. George named plenty of celebs (who were mostly black men) whom he wanted to box. Let that sink in.
When celebrity boxing promoter Damon Feldman first announced plans to bring George to the ring, he received 15,000 applicants whom all wanted to put a pounding on George. DMX emerged as the winner. But is it really a win?
DMX told TMZ, "I am going to beat the living f**k out him … I am breaking every rule in boxing to make sure I f**k him right up." TMZ reports he then said he's literally piss on George's face.
The match will last 3 rounds, and reports say 30-year-old Zimmerman has been training pretty hard for months. Meanwhile, 43-year-old DMX has only been known for getting arrested the past few months.
George will reportedly have security on hand to prevent anyone from "getting out of hand".
The date, time, and location of the fight will be announced at a news conference next Wednesday. Is this a train wreck we're all waiting to watch? Not us.
By the way, today would have Trayvon's 19th birthday.
[UPDATE] There is now a petition floating around to "Stop George Zimmerman and Promoter Damon Feldman from using murder & racial hate in America for Profit".
Now that you are aware of the boxing match with "objective" information, we encourage folks to sign this. The text is below and you can sign HERE.
Celebrity Boxing Promoter Damon Feldman & George Zimmerman are attempting to promote and profit off of racial tensions in America.Damon Feldman has been known for fixing fights and taking short cuts in the past in bypassing state requirements for fighters to obtain a license to box.Mr Feldmans past should be highly considered in this regard if Feldman is not going through the proper channels to ensure the safety of the participants it puts lives at risk.in addition the entire idea of this event is to use racial tensions to lure people in to purchase the event. this will only hurt America as it will continue to stir up racial tensions that have been on going in this nation for quite some time.No Promoter or Celebrity Boxer should ever be allowed to use racial tension to profit.

Our Favorite Celebrity Couples Of 2011
From Britney and Jason to K-Stew and R-Pattz, we look back at the best high-profile pair-ups of the year.
By Jocelyn Vena
<P>From young love to established romantic empires, 2011 was all about PDA. Some of La La Land's most A-list couples weren't shy about flaunting the love they share. From musicians to actors to everyone in between, the last 12 months were all about sharing the love.

After two years of dating, Spears and Trawick took their relationship to the next level, with confirmation that Jason <a href="/news/articles/1676120/britney-spears-is-engaged.jhtml">put a ring on it</a>.
