"The Game" Makes Its Premiere BET Debut+Cast Hits "106" & Premiere Party
BET has found themselves a hit. Finally. Last night, "The Game" made it's comeback after a two year cancellation hiatus. And it was worth the wait.
Check out pics from their promo at "106 & Park" and premiere party yesterday in NYC. Plus, dish to us on what you loved and hated about last night's premiere episode....
Wendy Raquel Robinson dropped it like it's hot for the "106 & Park" kids yesterday. The whole cast hit up the show to do some promo for "The Game". And, of course, Tasha Mack's new boo Terrence/Dante' got his pub on for his own show.
Speaking of this new tv relationship b/w Tasha and Terrence/Dante--anybody else felt awkward watching TJ come out in just his nekkidness in that towel and get it in with Tasha? Goodness.
So here's a quick recap of what we loved and hated.
LOVED: The whole damn show. The story line picked up 2 years after it left off and it flowed. Melanie/Tia's looking fantabulous. The drama popped off in the first 5 minutes of the show with that sneaky and trifling paternity test Mel decided to do on Derwin's baby. And it backfired. LOVED THIS MAURY POVICH ISH.
Loved Tasha Mack smoking a Black while walking down the street. Loved the foolery of Malik blatantly and openly cheating with the team owner's wife Meagan Good. Somehow, I feel like this ish happened in real life with these very people in some way. Loved TT and his fried chicken truck. OF COURSE he has a fried chicken truck.
HATED: So Jason and Kelly's daughter Brittany's just going to be a grown ass woman now after only 2 years of being away? They're worse than soap operas with that one. WHO was in charge of the laugh track? Decide if you want it or not because that mug sounded very indecisive. Hated whoever cast Sheree' Whitfield. How do you have one line and do the WORST job in the entire 1 hour episode? Hated the fact that I got into an hour long debate on whether Mel was right or wrong for that down low ish she pulled. Oh wells.
Terrence and Roci chatted up the cast.
Looking great ladies.
Over at last night's launch party at Butter:
Creators Mara Brock Akil and Selam Akil kicked it with stars of the show Hosea Chanchez and Terrence J.
The oddest couple on tv--Wendy Raquel Robinson and TJ.
Hey Deb Lee.
The cast got emotional after speeches and sweet words were said.
Loving Tia Mowry's pregnancy glow.
Fabulous.
Sherri Shepherd was there.
Larry Johnson was there.
And Rocsi was there too, of course.
Fab times. Anxiously awaiting next Tuesday night....

Taylor Swift: Speak Now Maintains Billboard Top Spot
She?s no stranger to success, and Taylor Swift's latest album Speak Now is holding steady at the #1 position on the Billboard albums chart.
However, the ?Should?ve Said No? singer?s spot sets a new record for the lowest sales of a number one album, moving just 52,000 units last week.
Apparently the New Year has been sluggish for record sales overall, as the ?Country Strong? soundtrack only sold 28,000 copies despite Gwyneth Paltrow?s hit song.
The Top 10 included, Swift, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars, ?Tron: Legacy,? Eminem, Rihanna, Kanye West, Mumford & Sons, and Jason Aldean.

Evan Rachel Wood's Undercover Landing
In no mood to smile for the paparazzi, Evan Rachel Wood was spotted dodging the photogs at LAX Airport in Los Angeles, CA on Tuesday (January 11).
The ?Across the Universe? beauty walked out of the terminal and quickly covered up with her coat before hopping into a vehicle and speeding off.
In other news, Wood will be reprising her role as Queen Sophie Anne on the hit HBO show ?True Blood.?
?It?s been great. It?s one of the funnest sets I?ve worked on,? she said of being back. ?[There?s]?s just always something crazy [happening]. ?True Blood? is just a blast; it?s fun; it?s scary; it?s sexy; it?s hilarious.?

Money 101: Visualizing Your Financial Future
In January, many us of us take the time to reflect on our progress and trajectory in life, mentally scribbling a personal scorecard for the past year. We analyze and comb through the personal, the professional, the spiritual and the financial. Did I crush that credit card debt? Increase my 401k contributions? Save more, spend less? Kick my online shopping addiction? Then we map out our new and improved goals, because it's a new year damn it, and we can do it! But by mid-March, just as the packed treadmills at the gym are free again, the air has deflated in our hopeful money balloons.
There are two schools of thought when it comes to planning one's financial future – visualization and goal setting, or the most powerful, the combo. The Frisky turned to finance expert and author Manisha Thakor for tips on how to successfully accomplish both.

BET Co-Founder Shelia Johnson Trashes Oprah's OWN Network
Not everybody's feeling O's brand new cable network. Sheila Johnson, the co-founder of BET newtork, slammed Oprah Winfrey's OWN Network for what she called its "lack of diversity." Peep the shots she fired inside...
During an interview on NPR's "Tell Me More," BET co-founder and fellow billionaire Sheila Johnson slammed Ms. Winfrey when asked about the mogul's new OWN network.
“The only advice that I say, let’s open up your circle a little bit more. You know, we love the Dr. Phils. We love the Suze Ormans. Let’s open up. There are other people. And there’s also African-American experts out there that I think she should start bringing on her show that can reach even a wider audience.”
Sheila said she sees Oprah's new venture as a missed opportunity because of its lack of diversity. While saying Oprah has the power to create opportunities for minorities, Sheila said she hopes one day this will become a reality.
“And I think she really should do that and not be afraid to do it. There’s really a lot of great experts out there that really know the businesses at hand. And I’d like to see her open up her circle to do that.”
OWN could use a little color; however, I don't think Oprah has ever used any of her platforms to only provide opportunities for minorities. But Oprah has said herself this new venture is a learning process so maybe there's some changes in the works. Or not. Either way....it's Oprah's and she can do as she pleases. Your thoughts?

Kate Moss Chows Down Following Her Thai Getaway
Kate Moss and Jamie Hince arrived back in London yesterday from their Thai New Year's getaway, and their first order of business was a stop at the Loa Paletta restaurant for lunch. It was Kate's fourth annual visit to the country, and she was able to get in some beach time with friends between big outdoor meals. Her absence from the fashion world didn't slow the release of her latest project, which is a short film for Balmain. Kate and Jamie will soon have another reason to host one of their legendary parties and keep their good times going, as she turns 37 this weekend!

LaLa Vazquez Covers "Munaluchi Bridal" Mag, Her Hubby Gets Traded To The NJ Nets?+YBF Celebs At The Lakers/Knicks Game
It's a full out basketball post.
LaLa Vazquez covers this month's edition of Munaluchi Bridal Magazine and we have the cover photo for you inside. See the cover plus get deets about her hubby Carmelo Anthony and his possible trade to the NJ Nets and see all the YBF celebs who chilled at the Lakers/Knicks game inside...
LaLa looks beautiful on this month's cover of Munaluchi Bridal Magazine where she talks inside about being married to a baller and how she balances her career and motherhood. The issue is on newsstands now.
Speaking of La and her hubby:
Lala's hubby, Carmelo Anthony, may be headed to New Jersey. Yesterday, the Denver Nuggets and New Jersey Nets came close to completing a three-team trade to send Carmelo to New Jersey. But nothing is set in stone as of yet.
If a deal is finalized, Carmelo is expected to bank a three-year $65 million contract extension with the Nets. Hmmm....must be nice to have options like that.
Sources tell Yahoo! Sports that a deal should be on the table soon.
Also in sports, we spotted several celebs at the Lakers/Knicks game at the Staples Center in LA yesterday.
George Lopez greeted Ron Artest before the game began.
And later Ron greeted Dr. Dre and his massive pecs.
Ciara was there rocking her furry Louboutin boots.
And she sat smack dab in the middle of Denzel Washington and Spike Lee. Must be nice.
And Will.i.Am. chatted up Denzel courtside.
While Lindsay Lohan, fresh out of rehab, kicked it with Spike.
