This former artist reportedly said good bye to the music industry in order to focus on managing the modeling career of her two daughters.

Schedule a New Year’s Eve lap dance for yourself if you guessed Charli Baltimore. The Philadelphia native hit New York City’s Highline Ballroom on Tuesday night with daughters India (23) and Sianni (17) for the Rap Radar x Slaughterhouse concert event. Ms. B-More will always be Big Poppa’s other other side piece in the hearts of millions.

Here’s a bonus flick of the lovely sister duo at a photo shoot earlier this year:

Top hat and all, this favorite among the ladies was photographed tickling the ivory at Vikram Chatwal’s 40th birthday celebration in New York City last week. Can you guess who?

Rub your hands together like Birdman and wait for your blessing (oh, its coming) if you guessed R&B singer Maxwell correctly.

The problem with attending a Halloween party in street clothes is that people take it as a greenlight to throw shade, and the “let me guess who you ’sposed to be” fun starts. I’ll let you handle that. Salt-N-Pepa hit the Malibu Black sponsored Skater Zombies and Surfer Chicks Halloween weekend kick-off party inside Good Units at Hudson Hotel on Thursday.

That sound you just heard was Solange choking on her Vita Coco coconut water. Original 90’s reggae rude gal Patra was impeccably dressed for the Inspired in New York event honoring Editor-In-Chief of Essence.com Emil Wilbekin on Wednesday night. Pull up!

REWIND: PATRA – “DIP & FALL BACK”

It never rains in Southern California and that probably explains why so many celebrities have dry ass careers. Especially the one above . . .

Guess which popular 90’s sitcom star who almost stole Martin from Gina rang the alarm for the paps to come out and give a fuck about her looking like who did it and what for.

It’s Lisa Turtle Lark Voorhies! She had to have called the photogs to come snap some pics of her. Cuz you know they didn’t do this shit voluntarily. Immediately after seeing this I thought “Jasmine Guy’s face morphs more than the Wonder Twins”, but I was sadly mistaken.

You didn’t open up your eyes in a parallel universe called 2007 this morning. Cheri Dennis and her mighty mustache won’t be denied! After temporarily escaping from Diddy’s toothpick crypt earlier this week she strutted on the runway for SACHIKA’s Spring 2011 Ready-To-Wear collection.

Life after Bad Boy Records can be tough. Time away from your family due to the long hours you are putting in behind the desk at Tire Kingdom is just the tip of the iceberg. Once Diddy’s tooth pick crypt has chewed you up and spit you out there’s no looking back.

After Da Band was dismantled Sara Stokes took her career to new heights by stabbing her husband renting a pair of tittayballs. That’s one way to do it! Here she is along with ATL’s “elite” (read: they occasionally rock Minx nails) female emcees Rasheeda and Diamond supporting the $50 Weave Shop.

Don’t expect any wise cracks out of me about the budget friendly hair salon! I may just have to take a trip there myself in the weeks to come.

Just . . . yeah. For more yaki fun and foolishness, hit up Freddy O!

Mr. West used an umbrella to shield himself from the flashing lights after attending a play in New York City on Friday. Situations like this are more reason for Quween of the Scene to consider opening up a celebrity protection agency on the east coast.

*The Black Awareness Rally had more attendees than Flex’s Car Show. That’s one sad Lil’ Mama face by itself.

SAD LIL’ MAMA FACE RATING [OUT OF 5]

James Avery, our favorite television father behind Sheree Whitfield, was spotted recently bound to a wheelchair after what looks like an injury to his foot. What’s depressing about the pictures is the man bag that he is clutching so tightly [Andre Leon Talley would approve] and the red crocs that he has on. Instead of playing with dildos and Jada’s dick, Will need to mosey himself down to Uncle Phil’s side and help a brother out
