CHRIS BROWN COVERS BILLBOARD MAGAZINE ADMITS "MAYBE I WAS OUT OF CONTROL"

As he gears up for the release of his sixth album X on September 16, Chris Brown graces the latest issue of Billboard. A blonde Breezy dons a fedora and bares his tatted chest on the cover, which includes the quote: “Maybe I was out of control.”

In his first post-prison interview, Brown speaks about X, life behind bars, Rihanna, and moving past his troubles.

“I realize that what I do for a living opens my life to public scrutiny and that I have a responsibility to everyone because of that exposure,” he said.

“I can say that I am only human and I have made mistakes. I can say that I try to live my life in the most true, honest way that I can. I am not perfect, no one is. No one is harder on me than me. No one can please everyone. No one can live in the past and expect to grow. I have been moving forward and hope that I am not defined by just a few moments in my life but all of the moments that will make up my life.”

The full story will be released today.

FLOYD MAYWEATHER EX SHANTEL JACKSON SUING HIM "HE HELD ME AT GUN POINT"

Shocker! Floyd Mayweather's ex-fiancee Shantel Jackson is suing the boxing champ claiming he physically assaulted her, invaded her privacy and forced her to return her engagement ring at gun-point…

From TMZ 

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ Sports, Jackson claims Floyd first got violent with her back in 2012 ... right after he was released from the slammer in a domestic violence case involving another woman. Jackson claims the two were arguing when "He twisted [her] arm, choked her and forcibly took her phone away from her to look through it."

Jackson claims Mayweather got violent again in April 2013 ... when during another argument, he "bent her arm, restrained her, and pointed a gun at her foot, asking 'Which toe do you want me to shoot?'"

In her suit, Jackson claims he then demanded her to remove her 17 carat diamond engagement ring at gunpoint.

Jackson also claims Mayweather invaded her privacy when he posted photos of her sonogram on social media -- and claimed the "real" reason they broke up is because she "killed our twin babies."

There's more ... Jackson claims Mayweather struck again in Feb. 2014 at his condo at the Ritz in L.A. Shantel claims she was trying to leave following yet another argument -- when Floyd grabbed her by the arm and dragged her back inside. She claims Floyd blocked her from leaving for more than an hour.

Shantel is suing for assault, battery, defamation, invasion of privacy. 

Shantel now dates rapper Nelly.

TOO LATE? NICK CANNON TWEETS HIS LOVE FOR MARIAH CAREY, BUT SHE STARTS DIVORCE PROCESS

This is when you people should tell you to "get off social media"....Even though Nick Cannon confirmed that there is “trouble in paradise” with wife Mariah Carey, the America’s Got Talent host is taking back what he said – in a Twitter rant, of course.

The former Nickelodeon star claims in his tweets that he “never” made a statement regarding his marriage. But now the host is looking to clear the air regarding certain aspects of his private life.

Mariah Carey has started the divorce process against Nick Cannon, E! report.

A source tells the publication: 'Mariah has started the divorce process. She's getting all her ducks in a row.'

The report comes after Nick took to Twitter to rant that he 'never said' his marriage was in trouble to begin with.

However, it appears it could be too little, too late for the star, as the source added that he 'recently asked if she wanted to bring in a marriage counselor'.

Reports emerged last month that Nick had said he and Mariah had been 'living in separate houses for a few months' and gave her permission to take their three-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, out of town, as "he knows he really upset her by speaking out of turn."

However, Nick is now saying this is not the case, but still failed to mention if he and Mariah were having troubles or not, except for calling it a 'difficult time'.

'I have personally been absent from social media for the past few months for obvious reasons but I feel the need to finally speak up,' he began his rant. 

'For the record I NEVER have, nor will I make a statement regarding my marriage,'
However, he later added that the pair are going through a 'challenging time'.

Mariah, 44, who married Nick in 2008 has also been quiet over the mounting rumours, which suggest she is now planning to divorce Cannon.

CIARA AND CHEATING BABY DADDY FUTURE ARE BACK TOGETHER

Were just being Honest...he's a known cheater  like we previously reported and mostly likely will do it again.  But that little detail hasn't stop the breakup to makeup. Ciara and Future have decided to get back together for the sake of their son.

Last month, Ciara called off their engagement after Future allegedly cheated while he was on tour in Europe.

Now TMZ is reporting that the couple is living together again and trying to make things work so Future can help raise their four-month-old son, Future Zahir.

Ciara wasn’t interested in a shared parenting situation. Despite their relationship issues, she believes Future is a good father and that it’s best for their son to have both his parents around.

The two have been busy working on new projects. Future is readying his Evol mixtape, while Ciara is recording a new album with Dr. Luke.

ALICA KEYS 2ND CHILD DUE IN DECEMBER & NEW ALBUM ON THE WAY

While promoting Givenchy’s new fragrance Dahlia Divin at Macy’s in Manhattan, Keys spoke to the AP about the follow-up to 2012′s Girl on Fire.

Alicia Keys has a new baby and a new album on the way. The pregnant singer gushed about her upcoming delivery, calling it her best work yet.

“What I know for a fact is it’s the best music I’ve ever done in my life yet and it’s really exciting to be able to have this kind of growth, this type of opportunity,” she said. “The music’s actually pretty much done already and so you’ll be hearing some of it soon.”

She has been in the studio with Pharrell Williams and will help the “Happy” hitmaker mentor his contestants on NBC’s “The Voice,” which premieres Monday.

“Alicia’s album is crazy. Harlem is gonna be real proud,” Pharrell told Angie Martinez earlier this year. “She’s getting ready to do something super next level. It supercedes anything that’s out.”

While Keys remained coy about a release date, she did reveal that she and husband Swizz Beatz are expecting their second child in December.

“December album? Well, I know one thing. I’m having a December baby,” said Keys, who knows the sex of the baby, but would not share it.

She can also be seen in a commercial for Dahlia Divin below.

WHERE IS JANET JACKSON? SHE'S COMING SOON?

She got married and then just vanished from the US. What is brewing with singer Janet Jackson?

If you have been keeping track of all the rumors surrounding the MTV Icon, then you know her longtime producer Jimmy Jam has been dropping all sorts of hints via Twitter as of late.

It all started back in April when Jam linked to a Buzzfeed article praising the singer’s contribution to the music industry, along with the caption “In anticipation of some exciting @JanetJackson news, let’s refresh our memories of her greatness.”

That tweet has been followed by dozens more, including several over the weekend asking why Miss Jackson had yet to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, an bullshit honor that has been bestowed upon several of her 80’s contemporaries, including her brother Michael, Prince and Madonna (FYI, Whitney Houston and Donna Summer have also been snubbed for years- wanna guess why- but anyway that is another post- yes I know Donna was inducted posthumously).

All this Janet news has only served to heighten the interest of fans, who managed to catch wind of a photo posted by Balmain creative director Oliver Rousteing over the weekend with the caption “COMING SOON.”

So- what was the photo? It was the cover of Janet’s iconic 1993 album “Janet,” you know, the one that features the singer topless with then husband Renee Elizondo clutching “The Twins.”

 Though inundated with requests for more info, Rousteing has kept mum, leading to lots of speculation- including from us.

For quite a few years Janet was always front and center at Paris Fashion Week and is known to be good friends with several designers, including the late Alexander McQueen, who crafted several outfits for the singer’s “Discipline” era.

Whatever the case, I think it’s safe to say we will probably be getting some kind of Janet fix before the year is out, and I for one am happy to have the FlyteTyme duo back on Team Janet.

LEBRON JAMES SKIPS DWAYNE WADE WEDDING....AND WHY?

Just like Miami Heat fans, Lebron James and Dwayne Wade friendship was all smoking mirrors, in other words FAKE!! LeBron James and Dwyane Wade described themselves as brothers while playing together for the Miami Heat but it appears their brotherhood may have been fractured since LeBron decided to take his talents back to Cleveland next year.

At the same time Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union's celebrity pals were flooding social media with pictures from Dwyane and Gabby's weekend wedding in Miami, LeBron James conspicuously posted that he was currently tooling around Akon, OH in his new car.  

Fun Fact: Savannah James was once VERY close friends with Gabrielle Union but suddenly stopped being photographed with her about a year ago. Sending out a cryptic message:

As for the two other members of the former Miami Big Three, at least one of the two was in attendance. Chris Bosh and his wife, Adrienne, sent out a pre-wedding photo, with the Heat forward saying he's ready to share "a special moment" with the newlyweds:

James left the Heat to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers after four seasons in July. While that may have been a factor in his decision whether to attend, it's far more likely his very pregnant wife and her ability to travel was the chief obstacle if he was not at the ceremony.

Regardless of the attendees, Wade and Union seemed more than satisfied on their big day. And given the positivity being shown on social media with the hashtag #TheWadeUnion—which was used by most guests throughout the evening—odds are they left satisfied as well.

BRAD PITT AND ANGELINA JOLIE WEDDING DAY DETAILS REVEALED

The intimate Aug. 23 ceremony – attended by just 20 friends and family members – was held in the chapel of Château Miraval, the family's estate in the French village of Correns. The wedding – including exclusive photos of the ceremony, Jolie's unique dress (decorated with her children's artwork!) and the entire family's celebration – is featured in this week's issue of PEOPLE, in conjunction with Hello! magazine internationally. 

Each child had a key role to play: Eldest sons Maddox, 13, and Pax, 10, walked their mom down the aisle; flower girls Zahara, 9, and Vivienne, 6, tossed petals gathered from the garden; and Shiloh, 8, and Knox, 6, served as ring bearers. The kids also helped write their parents' vows. And Pax baked the cake! 

The dress, created by Atelier Versace master tailor Luigi Massi, the gown featured a fitted bodice with simple thin straps, the bust complete with ruching, with a plain waist, kicking out into a flowy full skirt.

Luigi then hand-sewed a number of the children's designs onto both the back of the dress and the full-length veil.

'Luigi is like family to me and I couldn't imagine anyone else making this dress,' the 39-year-old bride told the publication. 'He knows and cares for the children and it was great fun putting it together.'

 Angelina kept her hair and make-up simple and elegant for her big day, her long dark brunette locks worn up in a chic bun into which the veil was secured.

Her face was flawless and dewy, with brown shadow on her eyes, lashings of black mascara and a soft rose hue on her famously full lips.


The ceremony was held at the chapel of their property in France, in the village of Correns - 50 miles north east of Marseille.

Twenty guests attended the marriage at Chateau Miraval, including Pitt's parents, Bill and Jane; his brother, Doug; sister, Julie, and her two children. Jolie's father Jon Voight was not present, but he later issued a statement congratulating them.

For Brad and Angelina's complete wedding album, all the details of their big day and more of the couple's interview, pick up this week's issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Wednesday.
