YBF Ladies Of Hollywood Take Over Black Girls Rock!
All of our fave YBF chicks made their way to the New Jersey Performing Arts Center Saturday night for the BET taping of Black Girls Rock! Check out all the fabulosity and non-stop gorgeousness that hit the carpet and the stage inside (plus, we’ve got a few spoilers about the show)….
It was a "Girlfriends" reunion on last night’s pink carpet! Jill Marie Jones, Persia White, Tracee Ellis Ross and Golden Brooks looked their usual fab selves as they reunited to present the Shot Caller Award to the show’s creator, Mara Brock Akil. Mara also gave a tearful and heartfelt speech in acceptance.
Golden & Jiil–aka Maya and Toni–posed it up and showed that black girls just get better with age.
Persia, who recently starred on "Vampire Diaries", kept it simple and chic in this flowy grey dress.
And Tracee kept it edgy in all black as she posed it up with her good friend Regina King. Both served as hosts of the show.
Mariah Carey hit the stage rocking a midriff baring top and embellished maxi skirt as she presented the Living Legend award to Patti LaBelle.
When Ms. Patti stopped Mariah from walking off stage and asked her to "hold her award", MiMi told her about her arm being "a little weak." Ms. Patti snapped back and told her to hold that ish anyway. Hilar!
Kelly Rowland and her sheer pants posed it up with her celeb trainer and workout DVD partner, Jeanette Jenkins, and Jeanette’s little Goddaughter Ada. How precious! Teaching the little ones early how much they rock…
Kelly also switched it up to hit the stage with Sevyn Streeter.
Best Man Holiday actress Nia Long flaunted those post baby curves in a skin tight black dress, with her engagement ring and a bold red lip to boot. Chick i making 42 look like 32….
"Second Generation Wayans" star Tatyana Ali stood out in this white small cutout gown with a heavily embellished rosette shoulder. Super chic look for her. And she presented a M.A.D girl award (Making A Difference) to 7-year-old Brooklyn Wright.
Stunningly gorge WNBA star Skylar Diggins rocked a hot black gown for the occasion. She was there to present the Venus Award.
"DWTS" contestant and "Glee" star Amber Riley is showing off the results of all those dance rehearsals. Looking good chick!
KeKe Palmer is fresh off the accolades from the "CrazySexyCool: TLC Story" biopic. And she presented the Young & Gifted award to ballerina Misty Copeland while looking fab in this black sparkling princess gown.
Queen Latifah received the Rock Star Award and looked amazing last night.
And that Award was presented by the gorge (and newly coiffed with a pixie cut) Jennifer Hudson.
Tennis champ Venus Williams kept it extra colorful in a floral strapless dress…and these multicolored braids.
LaLa Anthony rocked a black halter Pucci jumpsuit. And she draped herself in diamonds to top it all off. Gorgeous.
E-V-E kept it girly in this frilly grey cinched waist dress.
Michelle Williams rocked her usual cocktail dress look.
Ja Rule hit the carpet with his wife Aisha Atkins to show his support for Black Girls Rock!
And the Black Girls Rock! creator herself, Beverly Bond, was simply fab in a black strapless draped gown. Loves it!
"Black Girls Rock!" airs November 3rd at 7/6c on BET.

Hip Hop beef may be back, but the antics are on another level. Rick Ross didn’t take Drake’s recent dis track Push-Ups lightly. Rozay immediately took to the studio to comeback at the ‘white boy’ with a dis of his own entitled Champagne Moments. The MMG CEO explains that he is on a different level of gangster and the Instagram antics can’t get him out of a luxurious seat in his private hanger. While exposing fandom audio, switchable accusations, and fake body parts, Rozay says this beef has to end face to face. Let us know your thoughts on the official video below. Stream your copy of the single here and follow Rick Ross on Instagram and Twitter.
In the bustling streets of Southeast, Washington DC, rapper Kazon’s latest offering, “My Brother,” emerges as a symphony of redemption and advocacy, resonating with audiences far and wide.
Kazon’s path to musical stardom has been fraught with obstacles, from brushes with the law to a brush with death that left him scarred but unbroken. Through it all, he credits his resilience to the belief that every setback is an opportunity for growth.
With “My Brother,” Kazon takes on the role of a lyrical mentor, offering guidance and solace to Black youth grappling with violence and systemic oppression. Through heartfelt verses and melodic refrains, he shares his own journey of redemption, using his past mistakes as a catalyst for change.
At its core, “My Brother” is a call to action—a plea for unity, love, and advocacy within the Black community. Kazon’s harmonious tale serves as a reminder that through solidarity and advocacy, we can effect real change and pave the way for a brighter future.
As the final notes of “My Brother” fade into the ether, Kazon’s message lingers: every trial is a testament to our strength, and every mistake is a chance to do better. Through his music, he invites us to join him in a journey of redemption and advocacy—one that holds the promise of a more just and equitable world for all.
