India Arie Underfire For Skin Bleaching On Her New Album Cover (PHOTO)

India Arie recently came under some back lash after the release of her cover art for her latest single, "Cocoa Butter." The photo showed and almost unrecognizable lighter skin toned India Arie, which led folks to believe that the singer has been lightening her skin. But India Arie is shutting all the chatter down! Sources close to the afro-centric R&B singer who is known for promoting black beauty, told TMZ the "lightened" skin is;

"merely the product of the camera flash and angle. India never asked to be lightened".

She later tweeted:

**singing** i am not my hair, i am not this skin, i am not your expectations oh no....

Bela's Corner: Would You Allow Your Partner Go On A Vacation With His/Her Ex?!

Some days back, I was scrolling through some of my usual series and I stumbled on Love and Hip-Hip. On viewing one of the scenes, a guy told his girlfriend that he was going on a trip with his ex-girlfriend, whom he claims he is still in love with. And what was so shocking was that, he said he was going regardless of what the girlfriend says. She did let him go on the trip and this prompted my question;

"Would you sincerely allow your partner to go on a trip with his/her ex, knowing that your partner might still be in love with that ex?"...

I know for sure that the relationship is over if you decide to go on a trip like that...sorry!

Shocking: A Brazilian Model Breast Feeds A Herd Of Calves At A Pet Zoo

A model and DJ called Sabrina Boing Boing caused an uproar in her home country of Brazil when NSFW Instagram photos showed her trying to breastfeed a calf. On her Instagram account, Boing Boing wrote, "Teste feito com mamiferos, ate agora todos querem mamaaaaa rs." Google Translate tells us this roughly equates to "Testing done with mammals, so far everyone wants suck lol." Gross. Unsurprisingly, some of Boing Boing's tens of thousands of Twitter and Instagram followers deemed the calf "lucky" and made other icky comments like "very tasty." continue to see the last pic
 

Paris Hilton Kidnaps The Kardashian Sisters In New Ford Ad (PHOTO)

JWT India, the company that makes ad campaigns for Ford Figo in India, released an ad depicting all three Kardashian girls in the back of a car being driven by Paris Hilton with the tag line:

"Leave your worries behind with Figo’s extra large boot.”

Ford has since apologized for the ad, stating;

"The posters are contrary to the standards of professionalism and decency within Ford and our agency partners."

I think it's funny and probably what Paris Hilton is thinking of doing; because if you remember, Paris and Kim were friends before she became popular with the sex tape scandal. But now it seems, Kim stardom is now bigger than Paris's own and the constant comparison has led to serious rift between both parties.

Bela's Corner: Would You Marry Someone That Doesn't Want Kids?!

"As a lady or man that dreams of having your own child/children someday, would you consider marry someone who doesn't want kids? Also, do you think it's appropriate for a lady/man to not want to have kids?"

Khloe Kardashian Accused Of Getting Close And Personal With The Game (Pictures)

The Star magazines has published reports accusing Khloe Kardashian of being too close to someone other than her husband Lamar Odom, and I must say, I  think they're pretty silly! Though it's pretty clear Jayceon "The Game" Taylor has only been helping Khloe and Rob Kardashian out with their fitness, rumor has it Khlo Khlo has been getting a little too close to him for her husband's liking.
According to these accusations, Lamar thinks they're more than friends, as The Game continues to let Khloe know that she can do much better than her current husband.
A source tells Star:

"She even texts him while Lamar sleeps in their bed right next to her. The Game has been a rock for Khloe, listening to her problems, giving her advice and telling her she’s beautiful inside and out. He keeps saying she can do better than Lamar and she needs a man like him, who’d treat her like the queen she is."
 

I personally think this is some BS and The Game in a statement stated;

"The pictures that they see of us out together are because she is a part of my 60DaysofFitness team. Khloe is my friend. She is like a sister. We have never and will never be sleeping together. Lamar is my homie and her husband and I wish people wouldn’t spread such false rumors."

Kim Kardashian Rushed To The Hospital Over Miscarriage Scare

According to the New York Post, the 32-year-old socialite “started feeling ill on the plane from Paris, and called friends as soon as she landed,” the insider told the paper. “She was rushed to her doctor Tuesday night in tears. She thought she was having a miscarriage.”She was sent home at 12:30 a.m Wednesday, the paper reported, and her doctors advised her to eliminate her fast-paced, jet-setting lifestyle as she advances into the final months of her pregnancy. “Kim’s not respecting her pregnancy,” a source told the paper. “She’s running around, working out seven days a week. She’s working with two different trainers to control her weight, including Tracy Anderson and a pregnancy trainer.” “She’s scared that her ass is as big as a couch and is going south, but she is having a very rough pregnancy, and doctors have ordered her to slow down".

Liza Morales And Lamar Odom Battle Over Kids’ Custody And Visitation

Former ‘Starter Wives Confidential’ cast member Liza Morales headed back to court today to battle it out with her baller babydaddy Lamar Odom over custody issues surrounding their two children together…..and reportedly over whether or not the kids would appear on reality television.
via TMZ

Lamar Odom is in a New York courthouse right now … battling it out with baby mama Liza Morales over child support and visitation … and it must be exhausting because Lamar fell asleep on a bench in the hallway.
Lamar told TMZ … he was exhausted with jet lag, which is why he fell into a deep sleep before the hearing. Cops actually became concerned because the Clippers star wasn’t moving, so they nudged him awake.
In addition to child support and visitation, they’re reportedly bickering over whether their son and daughter can appear on their reality TV shows. Lamar is on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” Liza was slated to be on a show called “Starter Wives.”
And get this … we asked Lamar about being in the same restaurant last night as Kris Humphries. As we reported, they didn’t speak … but Lamar told us he didn’t see Kris and would have gone up to him and said, “What’s up,” if he knew.

We’re a little confused as to which of these two wants the kids on reality television since neither of them have shows at present. Khloe and Lamar confirmed last year that their reality show was on hold for now, and Lamar rarely appears on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, not to mention that Liza’s show ‘Starter Wives Confidential’ was recently cancelled……so what’s the beef?
In addition, when asked earlier this year how she felt about the possibility of her children appearing on the KUWTK and she said there’s “nothing I can do” about Lamar being married to a Kardashian. My how things change…
