  Ex Destiny Child Member Spills Tea

Ex Destiny Child member is spilling some tea to VLADTV about why she really left group back in 2000. In the video, she claims that Beyonce 'covered up' the real reason why she left the group. Back when Beyonce was on MTV's TRL she said that Farrah skipped several shows which was the reason why they let her go.

Farrah claims that was not true and that she never skipped a show. She blames poor management on why she left group and she thinks the group tried to make her look bad and ganged up on her. She also puts Mathew Knowles on blast

"Ultimately, it was management, he did get kind of loud... It's not a way you would want somebody treating your 18-year-old daughter, fresh out of the hospital from stomach flu and dehydration,"

MUSIC: My Top 4 2014 MTV VMA Moments

My Top 4 Moments

The 2014 MTV VMAs aired last night and it was an okay show. It wasn't as controversial as last year's show and I guess it's because I'm older now. The next generation of artists are taking over. I grew up seeing people like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Limp Bizkit, Eminem, Pink, and so many  more artists but I digress. They are four moments this year that really stick out for me.

1) Beyonce/Jay-Z/Blue Ivy

Let's be honest, most of us really wanted to tune this year was to see Beyonce perform and accept her Michael Jackson video vangaurd award and this MTV got it right. Remember Britney Spears? Beyonce perform a medely of songs on her latest album and then she almost broke down crying when Jay-Z and Blue Ivy came on stage.  It was by far the best VMA moment of the night. 

2) Miley Cyrus helping the homeless

My second favorite moment was Miley Cyrus. Now last year, she received negative attention for her performance with Robin Thicke. This year, she tried to move away from that and do something positive. Miley won Video Of The Year for her video "Wrecking Ball" and instead of her going on stage to do an acceptance speech, she bought a a former homeless man as her date and he went up to do a speech about her helping the homeless in Hollywood. She almost broke down. The speech was very moving and it was nice to see a different side to her.

3) Seeing Gwen Stefani

My third favorite favorite of the night was seeing Gwen Stefani. Like I said on my intro to this blog post, there are certain artists that I grew up watching that  are just VMA staples and Gwen Stefani it on of those artists. It was nice seeing her again at the VMAs even though she was just a presenter. She also still looks stunning for her age.

4) Nicki Minaj's Wardrobe Malfunction

We wee also hyped Nicki's performance for 'Bang Bang' and 'Anaconda' because bet that she was going to be this year's Miley Cyrus since her Anaconda has been controversial. When she came out performing "Bang Bang", she was covering herself. It has been said that she didn't have time to chnage, so she no choice but to cover up. She took it her instagram to repsond and quotes "God is good. As long as a nipple didn't come out to play, I'm fine."

Love It? Or Hate It?

Both Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta stars Joseline Hernanez and K. Michelle have releases new music videos the other day.

UPDATE: Danity Kane Releases Official Statement Regarding Break-Up

Danity Kane Breaks Up

It's official! Danity Kane have broken up following the domstic dispute between Dawn and Aubrey at the studio early this week. DK memebers Aubrey O Day and Shannon Bex have released an official statement in the group's Tumblr Page


"We know it must be devastating for our fans to have spent the last twelve months supporting our every move, and for that we cannot apologize enough.  We share your frustration and anger!  We spent a year living on each other’s couches, sacrificing any solo opportunity that came our way, finally finished our comeback album, and were days away from filming three music videos for you that would have played out as a short movie.  We lived on calls, traded endless e-mails, and sat in meeting after meeting to bring together an amazing team of producers, agents, directors, and styling teams with no manager in place.  We were at the finish line.  We wish, more than anything, that our time, our team’s time, and most importantly your time as fans, was not taken for granted and carelessly disregarded.  If this ending was in our control, please understand that we would have done everything in our power to move things forward.  You have become our family, and regardless of these unfortunate circumstances, we hope all of you treat one another as family, as we have built connections that cannot possibly be conveyed in words.  Our journey, and the love we have built together as fans and artists, is a truth that all of us will forever hold close to our hearts". 


Aubrey also speaks on the incident that happened between her and Dawn.

"During a recent group meeting, a business conversation took a turn for the worst when my group member punched me in the back of my head while I was speaking to another associate.  To be clear, she was not physically engaged or threatened prior to her attack on me.  This is the same information I provided to the police, and witnesses also corroborated this account of the incident.  I cannot condone or excuse any form of physical violence, particularly at the hands of someone I considered family.  Disagreements happen.  But a war of words and ideas should never end in physical aggression"




Danity Kane was about to plan a comeback with a new album. They recently released their new single "Lemonade" months ago.
