watch1 Stunts And Shows: Amber Roses Ex Publicist Is Back At It

Barely out of his teens, then Temple University student Janero Merchand played a pivotal role in putting a relatively unknown Amber Rose on the map after meeting the model on the set of a photo shoot and later connecting her with Kanye West in the days that follow.

“When I first met Amber Rose, a lot of people don’t know this, she had on a Baby Phat coat and Nike high heels,” Janero says. “But what I saw about Amber Rose was she had a star quality potential.”

As the fairy tale goes, Kanye paid for her trip out to the west coast to star in the visual for 808’s and Heartbreak’s cut “Robocop,”sparking an instant connection with Amber in the process.

The countdown to the demise of Amber and Janero’s relationship, personally and professionally, was officially on after she returned back home to Philly. Watch the self-appointed “Michael Jordan of models” (ROFL) offer his side of the story after the jump.

Quick Quotes: Octavia Spencer

octavia11 Quick Quotes: Octavia Spencer

Jezebel – Actress Octavia Spencer has been the toast of the town since getting a heap of award nominations for her role in The Help, but, much to her dismay, a lot of the conversation in the press about her has involved her weight. She took to Facebook to air her frustrations and set the record straight.

After being honored by my Guild on Sunday, I was whisked to the Press Room where one of the first questions I was asked (by Ted Casablanca) was ‘what I felt about underweight women’. (i’m paraphrasing here) I’m thinking….this is relevant because… Then I started thinking, would these questions ever be asked of my male counterparts? Better yet, underweight actors or actresses? Nah, I don’t think so!

Star Tracks: Mary J. Blige Visits The Wendy Williams Show

mjb Star Tracks: Mary J. Blige Visits The Wendy Williams Show

What more can I say to describe Mary J. Blige’s appearance on The Wendy Williams Show that wasn’t already addressed in my chat with YoungSinick this evening?

I know she’s not that awkward in person. I bet she be cursing and shit, trying to shoot pool. I love her. Like, if she’s friends with Tamar Braxton you know she can talk. She hangs with Taraji P. Henson and Tamar now. Said she hasn’t seen Lil’ Kim in years. Shade says she rolls with the wealthy and relevant. Let me stop before a Kim stan swoops in. Mary probably doesn’t wanna be bothered with Kim, though. Still talking about Biggie like it’s 1995 and she just escaped Faith Evans’ wrath.

And that’s what friends are for. Peep a snippet Willona Woods’ chat with Wendell after jump.
