With their first collaboration, “The Haves and Have Nots,” still bringing in big numbers for the OWN network, producer Tyler Perry and talk show queen Oprah Winfrey have teamed up once again to bring us “If Loving You is Wrong.”
The primetime drama is a very Knots Landing-esque soap opera revolving around the lives of several married couples who all live in the same complex. With the show set to debut September 9th, the first trailer has been released, along with a very detailed synopsis about each couple. Needless to say, some spouses are sleeping with people they shouldn’t be, which I guess will make for some very interesting storylines.
Whitey Houston’s upcoming Lifetime biopic directed by actress Angela Bassett will feature the singer’s music, but not her voice.
According to online reports, 90’s R&B singer Deborah Cox will be providing the vocals because music rights and clearances for some of Houston’s biggest hits have still not been worked out yet.
According to a rep for Lifetime, negotiations to feature music performed by the icon are still ongoing, but are expected to be secured by the time filming wraps up.
Whitney and Deborah recorded the tune “Same Script, Different Cast” together back in 2000 and according to Deborah, the two remained close friends up until Whitney’s untimely passing in 2012. As previously reported, model Yaya DaCosta will be portraying Whitney in the Lifetime movie about the singer’s life, which is set to debut later this fall.

These girls ain't Loayal....Karrueche Tran has been in the headlines for her on-again, off-again relationship with Chris Brown. While she normally shies away from interviews, the R&B superstar’s girlfriend opened up about all the heartbreak and drama during her appearance on Keke Palmer’s BET talk show “Just Keke.”
“I’ve never dated a celebrity, so it was very new to me, paparazzi and all that,” said the 26-year-old while reflecting on her romance with Chris.
“Even the situation with Rihanna, the reason why people tuned into this so much is because it’s relatable. I have girlfriends, I have family who’s gone through the same situations. The case of the ex. We all go through it.”
She found herself in a sticky situation. “In this case, my boyfriend is a celebrity who’s ex-girlfriend is an even bigger [celebrity]…so not only am I fighting a battle with her, I’m fighting a battle with her 14 million fans or however else.”
Social media has been especially unkind. “They make up all kinds of crazy stuff and it’s like they know nothing about me,” said Karrueche. “But because they know nothing about me, because I stay so mute sometimes, that leaves open space for them to say whatever they want.”
The interview took an emotional turn when Keke asked her what was the hardest part of being in a love triangle. “I guess I would say the heartbreak because it was a real situation,” said a teary-eyed Karrueche.
Not all of Kim Kardashian's exes are sitting around sulking since she married Kanye West.
Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush, 29, who famously dated Kim off and on from 2007 to 2010, married his longtime girlfriend, dancer Lilit Avagyan, on Saturday at the Grand Del Mar hotel in San Diego.
The bride looked stunning in a form-fitting lace and tulle mermaid gown with delicate detailing along the bodice and a long train. For his part, Bush suited up in a classic black brocade tuxedo and bow tie.
After becoming Mr. and Mrs., the pair were all smiles as they exited the chapel as a married couple to a sea of cheers from wedding guests. Lilit danced down the aisle while Bush grabbed high-fives from friends.
While Brody Jenner was a no show at his stepsister Kim Kardashian‘s May wedding to Kanye West, he went very public about being a guest at her ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush’s nuptials on Saturday.
“It’s go time,” Jenner, 30, captioned an Instagram photo of himself and his glamorous model girlfriend Kaitlynn Carter, 26, all dressed up for the football hunk’s wedding which took place at the Grand Del Mar in San Diego.
Later, Jenner shared a photo after the ceremony with the groom and his bride, professional dancer Lilit Avagyan, a curvy Kim lookalike!
Instead of going to Kardashian and West’s splashy but celebrity-starved Italian wedding, Jenner decided to DJ in Chicago.
Reggie reportedly broke up with Kim because he wasn't interested in the high level of fame that came along with dating her.
TMZ caught up with Bush on Friday to ask him about the big day. "We're excited," he said. "I'm tapped out. This wedding is costing me a lot of money!"
