SHORT HAIRED BEAUTIES: Tika Sumpter Rocks SHORT NEW BOB While Partying With Estelle In NYC
Mar 21st
At Marquee nightclub in NYC Sunday night, good friends Estelle & Tika Sumpter partied it up for Rémy Martin V’s Studio 54 Bash. And Tika surprised everyone wigging out with a new super short coif.
Check it inside…
"The Game" actress Tika Sumpter worked it out in this strapless long tailed top and cheetah print hotpants for Legendary Damon’s Rémy Martin V’s Studio 54 Birthday Bash. Her girl Estelle was the surprise performer for the night, but Tika surprised everybody by tossing her extra long-haired look to switch up to this super-cropped coif.
Not sure how I’m feeling about it, but she’s a fab chick nonetheless.
First Bridget Kelly rocked a live performance. Then Estelle rocked her usual short cropped ‘do while she hopped from her private Rémy V table to the balcony for an impromptu performance.
You feelin’ the ladies’ party looks?

”Don’t Let Us Raise Your Children”
Estelle voiced her support for R&B star Chris Brown. Brown has come under heavy criticism for his high-profile appearance at this year’s Grammys and his collaborations with his ex-girlfriend, pop star Rihanna. Brown infamously assaulted Rihanna back in 2009, but many detractors have emerged in the wake of the young star semi-rehabilitating his public image. “Parents, raise your kids. Young men and women, raise your kids. Don’t let us raise your children. That’s my take on it,” she explains to VIBE. “I respect him, I love him, he does amazing music, and has evolved. He’s worked his a** off, so why are people still crucifying him? … I just think people need to worry about their lives per say. Don’t worry about who he’s recording songs, who he’s doing this with if you enjoy the music. A lot of the same people were two stepping to ‘Look At Me Now,’ so it’s kind of like, keep your story straight or just don’t judge. Roll with it or don’t, but don’t dip in and out. We all make mistakes. A sin is a sin is a sin. It’s no big smoke, let the boy live. He does music.” |

YBF EXCLUSIVE: Estelle Lands “VIBE VIXEN” March 2012 Cover, DISHES On Her Lauryn Hill Inspiration
Mar 14th
R&B chick Estelle covers the March 2012 issue of "VIBE VIXEN" were she dishes on failed relationships, Lauryn Hill and being a celebrity. Highlights inside….
In the latest issue of VIBE VIXEN, Estelle is giving pretty face time and is featured in an article called ‘Estelle: All Dressed Up In Love.’ She dishes on failed relationships and being inspired by Lauryn Hill. Here are the highlights….
On the failed relationship that inspired her album All Of Me
I didn’t feel good. I didn’t wake up in the morning smiling. In arelationship when that starts to happen, you might want to push them while you’re in it. They say through thick and thin, but when it’s always thick and it’s always bad and it’s always negative, it’s never really going to turn into something. You know it’s going to be wrong but you’re like, no I want to stick around. It’s a waste of your life.On being a celebrity in a relationship
You’re going to pay for it for who you are somehow. I won’t complain. I love my life, I love my job, I love what the hell I do, and I love who I am. This is my existence. This is what I do. But it’s a tough thing to have to deal with always having that hung over your head, that feeling of well, he might throw that at me that he cooked for me today, like that’s not standard. I didn’t cook for him the entire week because, well, I’m me and I should be lucky that somebody wants to do that for me.
On the album’s Lauryn Hill influence
That was intentional. I think people need to talk. They need to have the conversation that [Lauryn’s] album had. They need to have that pull together that the album had and remind people that skits are fun, too. And it reminded me that I wasn’t alone, again.
A second cover for the issue hits stands later this month. Check out the full article at 12p ET over at VIBE VIXEN.

John Legend’s “Tonight (Best You Ever Had)” Video Featuring Ludacris + Estelle SPOTTED Clubbing In London
Mar 12th
R&B crooner John Legend is back with a hot new single called "Tonight (Best You Ever Had)" featuring Ludacris. Watch the video inside and see candids of Estelle clubbing in London.
John Legend puts his own sexiness at the forefront of his latest video featuring Ludacris.
The video begins with an extended shot of John’s kissable lips before moving onto his handsome face.
The single, "Tonight (Best You Ever Had)" appears on the Think Like a Man soundtrack.
Watch the video here:
And across the pond…..
Estelle was seen leaving Aura nightclub at 3am on St James Street in London this morning.
She recently chatted with S2S where she revealed what she doesn’t like about the music business saying,
"What I didn’t like was the general perception that well, you shouldn’t be different. Why are you trying to be different? It was like, ‘I’m not.’ It disturbed me. It wasn’t like saying I was being quirky or anything, it was more like, ‘How dare you be cultured and assured, ‘cause none of us are.’ And, ‘How dare you know who you are?’ That kind of energy. And I was like, ‘Oh, well, I don’t know how to answer that. All I know how to do is be me.’
