"Big Girls" is the new single by Bow Wow and it's features Yung Joc. His new album New Jack City Part 2 should drop on December 9th. Here is a Sneak Peek of the Video!!! Full version up soon!!!!


Following the recent rumours surrounding the release of Beyonce highly anticipated new album, the singer herself has issued a statement setting the record straight:

I wanted to address my fans about my upcoming album.

I have worked on this album for close to one year. I have taken the time so I can create my sound. Something that says who I am at this stage in my life. I have poured my heart and soul into it. It is my baby. It is the most time I have spent on any project since my first records as a member of Destiny’s Child when I was 15 years old.

I have recorded over 70 songs and have created a sound that reveals all of me. I am in a different place right now and I wanted people to see the many sides of me. The music is upbeat for the dance, fun side and it is reflective, passionate and serious for the personal side. I have taken risks here. I am not afraid and my music will explain it all. There is no label or tag on my sound. It’s me and I am so excited to share it with the world on November 18.

Love,
Beyoncé

Beyonce LP Delay?


According to the NY Daily News, Beyonce's hotly anticipated still untitled album may be hitting stores a little later than expected:
The singer's new album was due at her label Wednesday morning in order to make an announced Nov. 18 release date, but insiders tell us there have been problems.

"It's not going to be completed," said a source close to folks who've been working on the CD. "She's got to get it out early in the fourth quarter, when there's so much competition among artists."

Part of the delay may be due to Beyoncé's busy-than-ever acting schedule. The beauty spent months filming "Cadillac Records," in which she plays Etta James, and she's also working on the psychological thriller "Obsessed."

Another time-consumer was a duet with Justin Timberlake - the source says the two didn't like the way it was turning out and kept doing it over until they got it right.

Plus, claims our insider, "She clashes with Max Gousse, her father's guy who's involved."

Beyoncé's dad, Matthew Knowles, asked us, rhetorically, "How would he not be involved? He's the vice president of my company, and she's recording with my company."

And Gousse is the man who convinced her to record Ne-Yo's "Irreplaceable" - which became her biggest hit to date.

Still, the source counters, "Jay-Z encouraged Beyoncé to bring in Jay Brown and Ty Ty [Tyran Smith]" - both of whom have worked with red-hot singer Rihanna.

Beyoncé will release two singles, "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies," this Tuesday.

The chief of Sony BMG Music, Rob Stringer, got on the phone last week to tell us, "She has an enormous number of very talented people doing whatever they can to make it the best record possible.

"Normally I would lie low, but we think the first two singles will be utterly huge. They're two of the best songs of her career. Beyoncé is incredibly hardworking, and [the album] is 97%-98% done. It'll be out before Nov. 20. Frankly, we think the whole record is going to be huge."

While promoting her brand new 36 date world tour, legend Tina Turner spoke with US Today about performing with Beyonce at this year's Grammy's, Aretha Franklin's anger at her being introduced as the 'The Queen' at the same show, as well as her thoughts on the death of controversial ex Ike Turner:

On Performing With Beyonce:

People said, 'You looked better than Beyoncé.' Well, that's not possible. It's nice that young people hold me up as a model. Beyoncé is elegant and is handling her career well. A lot of new stars go overboard on sex. They're half-naked up there. My dresses were a bit short, but I stayed respectable."

On Aretha Franklin's Declaration 'I Am The Queen!':


She was mum at the time, but Turner now says: "Aretha has always been like that. We've always accepted that from her. She's the queen of soul, and I'm the queen of rock 'n' roll. There were so many kings and queens there that night. Her ego must be so big to think she was the only one." Turner laughs. "That's how queens are!"

On Ignoring Ike's Death:


"It meant nothing to me," she says. "He had been dead to me for 20 years."

Despite all the rumors and subsequent denials, it really seems as if there may be trouble in Danity Kane - with a line-up change or complete dissolve looking like an increased certainty. The above trailer for the season finale of the current season of Making The Band 4 eerily seems to echo the reports about members being kicked out a couple of months back. Of course, this could all be for publicity - as the girls have been seen together once or twice this month, however I don't see how persistent break-up rumors can be seen as good promotion. I guess we'll all know the answer come next week.

America's Next Top Model contestant Bianca Golden is speaking out for the first time about the Caribbean airport brawl, saying both Hairspray star Nickki Blonsky and her father attacked Golden's mother.

Golden says on the Oct. 8 episode of The Tyra Banks Show that her family was at the Turks & Caicos airport on July 29 returning from a family reunion for her dying grandfather when Nikki Blonksy became "very rude to my aunt."

An argument erupted between Blonsky's and Golden's families, then Blonsky's father Carl "punched my mom."

"He knocked her out," says Golden. "He hit my mom with such force she stumbled back and when she stumbled back the whole family got up and attacked my mom."

Then, when her mother was on the ground, Nikki "takes her foot and kicks my mom in her vagina, and that's when my mom fell out completely," says Golden.

"When Nikki kicked my mom I went and grabbed her arm and she grabbed my earring," says she. "Her mom sat on her to get her off of me cause her mom saw what was happening and that was that."

Golden says her mother was airlifted to the hospital with internal bleeding, a broken nose and a fractured skull.

"Her face is still black and blue," she says.

Carl and Nikki Blonsky and Golden were all arrested on assault charges – the most serious charges against Carl.

A rep for Nikki says: "Since this is a pending legal issue, we've been advise by her lawyer not to comment."

Well, get ready for another sequel.

Bille Woodruff, who directed Jessica Alba in 'Honey' and Queen Latifah in 'Beauty Shop' has been set to the direct the fifth installment of the 'Bring It On' franchise with Christian Milian and Nikki Soohoo attached as the leads. The title of the new film has not been finalized as of yet.

Production is currently underway.

And in the process, Lina may learn that she has more in common with her new classmates -- and her new stepsister, Sky -- than she had ever anticipated.

Heather Locklear was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Saturday evening in Santa Barbara County, Calif.

"Around 4:30 p.m., a female witness saw Heather Locklear driving erratically while leaving a parking lot in Montecito," California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Marshall tells PEOPLE. "The witness said Locklear was revving her engine loudly, and backed over a pair of sunglasses several times."

Soon after, the witness – who apparently didn't recognize the actress – spotted Locklear, 47, stopped on a nearby highway, exiting her vehicle.

"The witness called 911 because she was concerned for Locklear's safety," Marshall said. "When a CHP officer arrived, Locklear was found seated inside her vehicle, which was partially blocking the roadway."

Because Locklear appeared "disoriented and impaired," she was taken to a local CHP station and drug and alcohol tests were administered, Marshall said. The actress was cooperative.

"Alcohol was ruled out as a factor, but based on the officer's observations, we believe Locklear was under the influence of prescription medication," Marshall added.

Locklear was arrested on suspicion of DUI and being under the influence of a controlled substance. She booked at a local jail around 7 p.m., and released hours later.

The actress's lawyer, Blair Berk, wasn't immediately available for comment. Locklear's publicist had no comment.

Just two months ago, Locklear left an Arizona treatment facility after battling anxiety and depression.
