Chris Brown was back in an L.A. courtroom on Thursday for a progress report hearing in the Rihanna assault case. According to TMZ, his community labor was increased to four days a week, so he can finish his required hours by January.

VIDEO: TAMAR BRAXTON FT. FUTURE – ‘LET ME KNOW’

In between hosting “The Real” and taping her reality show “Tamar & Vince,” Tamar Braxton still finds time to slay the screen in the extravagant video for her new single “Let Me Know.” The R&B songstress shines in all her diva glory in the clip, which she directed. She switches up her look several times, from blonde to brunette, and even covers her naked body in glitter.

The Future-assisted song samples Aaliyah’s “At Your Best (You Are Love).” “I’m definitely a fan of Aaliyah,” Tamar said of the late singer. “She was one of my good friends because her uncle [Barry Hankerson] and my sister [Toni] were affiliated at the time, so I spent a lot of time with her.”

Tamar is currently in the studio finishing the follow-up to last year’s Love and War. The new season of “Tamar & Vince” premieres tonight at 10 p.m. on WE tv.

BEYONCÉ AND JAY Z RENEW THEIR WEDDING VOWS

The Carters are drunk in love. Beyoncé and Jay Z have squashed the breakup rumors once and for all by reportedly renewing their vows.


According to People, the superstar couple, who celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary in April, recently renewed their vows.

“They did have major problems,” a source told the magazine. “But they worked it out and they’ve renewed their vows.”

Over the summer, there were rampant rumors that the couple was headed for divorce. While their relationship has had its ups and downs, “they worked it out for [the sake of] their reputations and for [their 2-year-old daughter] Blue Ivy.”

The two were spotted house hunting in Paris over the past month. They’ve toured a villa near the Seine, a home in a gated community known as “Millionaire’s Row,” and a townhouse next to the Elysee Palace.

They shared their love for the City of Light during their “On the Run Tour” last month. “We love Paris,” Jay Z told the audience during the final two shows. “It’s special to us because we got engaged here, and this is where Blue Ivy was conceived.”

The couple recently shared photos from their family trip to the Louvre and Frieze Art Fair, and is reportedly in the studio working on a joint album to be released later this year or in early 2015.

Well, plans have been finalized and the supermodel turned super-mogul will officially act as host of ‘The Fab,’ a The View-style chatfest, which will officially hit TV screens across the country in the fall of 2015.

Along with hosting duties, Tyra will also act as executive producer. ‘The Fab’ is a collaboration with Disney-ABC, who expect the show to be huge with younger audiences, as well as stay-at-home moms and more and more Americans who are now working from home.

The show is expected to be syndicated and reach 82% of American homes when it launches September 2015.

KANYE WEST, KM KARDASHIAN, CHRIS BROWN, & BIG SEAN JOIN TEYANA TAYLOR AT ‘VII’ LISTENING PARTY

Teyana Taylor has been patiently waiting for her moment and it finally arrived last night. The Harlem singer was surrounded by friends and family as she celebrated her debut album VII in Hollywood.


Produced by MVD Inc and DONDA, the intimate listening event brought out stars including Kanye West, Kim Kardashian West, Chris Brown, Big Sean, Nelly, YG, Michael B. Jordan, and more.

Guests filled the red-lit soundstage before Kanye and No I.D. got on the mic to introduce G.O.O.D. Music’s First Lady. “I’m really proud of a lot of the artists on this label, like how far they’ve taken it and there’s been so many moments where people doubted a lot of the choices made,” said ‘Ye, “and I love it when an artist can turn around and have like a No. 1 single like Teyana has and make me look really smart.”

Teyana fought back tears as she thanked her team. “I just want to thank everyone standing here right now because they played a big part in finally getting this moment, and it’s been a long time coming,” she said, while acknowledging ‘Ye. “It feels good to be signed to someone who understands me.”

She also got on her knees to express her gratitude to her mother/manager Nikki Taylor. “I love you so much and if I had a ring, I’d ask you to marry me,” she joked. “This woman, I put her through so much. Seventy-two hours of labor and some more shit.”

Yeezy got back on the mic to say a few more words (via MTV News). “If you remember with Pusha T, I turned up and everybody thought I was crazy. Then he came out and did that buck-twenty and ni**as were like, ‘Aw, man. Maybe the shit was good.’ But what I’m saying is Teyana provides something that’s so R&B, so black, so ‘hood, so missing, and so necessary in the marketplace.”
