Kanye and Amber hit the Metropolitan Opera’s Anniversary Gala last night in NYC:
Both looked dapper and pretty damn fab. I see Kanye’s upgraded her look, taught her how not to speak, and taught her how to kick the same pose at all times. Sounds like a master plan’s in action….
And word has it Jim Jones got shots fired at him in Detroit last night. He likely was there to do a concert and clearly not everyone was happy he was in town. Here’s what we heard went down:
Detroit rapper Trick Trick brought Jimmy to a nightspot called Esko Saturday night. Four guys dressed in all black stormed into the spot and started shooting. Trick Trick got hit and so did another person. Both of those dudes are in the hospital, but Jimmy somehow escaped getting hit all together.
Some sources say Trick Trick set Jimmy up and it went wrong. Others say Jimmy just has some serious haters in Detroit and the bullets were actually meant for him. What’s up with people going to Detroit and always getting slapped up or shot at? Damn.
UPDATE: Trick Trick called in to WJLB in Detroit this morning and said he was NOT shot, is NOT in the hospital, and wasn’t even there at the club. Audio No word from Jimmy’s people just yet….
More pics from the Met when you read the rest…
Loving Kanye’s look this time around.
And Zoe Saldana was there too looking nice in her long green evening gown.

amber looks great
Mon, March 16, 2009 2:57 PM
Well Well the upgrade of '09 looks pretty damn dapper I might say. LOOOOVVVVVVVEEEEEE This look on her and on my dude Mr. DAPPER HiMSELF. KAnye. GO boY! Now if we could only get him to leave my lil girl's blue jean jacket in her closet he would be all good. LUV U Natasha!!!!! Have a GOOD DAY!
Mon, March 16, 2009 2:57 PM
Kanye and Amber look nice minus the ghetto tatoo on her thigh
Mon, March 16, 2009 2:57 PM
Jim Jones needs to give it up already.
Kanye and his lady friend both look great
glad to see he is upgrading her and she is graciously accepting it.
Good Look for them!!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:00 PM
Kanye and is side chick look fab!
I can't even hate…
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:00 PM
kanye looks like the black james bond! usually, i don't find yeezy too cute. amber is looking like the new bridgette neilson ( brigette in her rocky days not the foo fee foo fee days) zoe looks great i can picture her and yeezy standing together these pics, but we all know zoe would not put up with yeezy's divo antics!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:01 PM
I think that's the best I've seen Amber look….WTF ever to Trick Trick and Jim jones
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:02 PM
amber's dress is cute but not glam enough for the Opera. Kanye is wearing a tuxedo and she shows up in a cocktail dress??? she never dresses appropriately for the event… dont get me wrong, the dress and look are really nice, just not for that event… I hate Zoe's hair and makeup, the color of the outfit ages her… she could do much better!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:03 PM
Homegirl classed it up and looks hot…just sayin'
And Zoe's reppin for the size 0-2's (at least today)
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:03 PM
i'm feeling Kanye in the tux. I still don't know how i feel about his new woman…the first pic look like an ad for the purse she holding the way she has it on display!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:06 PM
i love how amber looks!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:07 PM
i like amber and kanye together i like both of their looks in the pics….zoe saldana is cute but she always look tired….
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:08 PM
Love Love Love Amber's whole look!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:09 PM
Cant stand Jim Jones he always looks like he's dirty and has bad body odor ugh!
Amber looks nice but looks like she's showcasing that purse lol cute purse tho.
…and who cares about the tat on her thigh?!? if it were on her neck ok
Zoe looks drunk in first pic
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:10 PM
THANKS YOU TASHA,THANK YOU
SHE IS SO FIERCE AND EXOTIC
LOVE THIS B*TCH :-)
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:10 PM
Kanye & Amber is killin it. They both look great
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:10 PM
Amber is doing the damn thing..I'm loving everything about her and Kanye's look this time around. kudos to them both. As far as Jim JOnes who could possibly hate on him he aint got sh@*…I mean really
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:12 PM
They look like a double stuffed oreo
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:12 PM
hot!!!!!!!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:14 PM
Kanye & Amber looks great!!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:15 PM
c kanye mother would b proud!!! he lookz great!!! amber looks nice her body iz bananas her face iz ok…..
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:16 PM
i just wish they would stop putting hot pink blush on her…gives off a chipmunk affect
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:16 PM
Nice to see Amber FINALLY looking classy
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:17 PM
ohhhhh…i love the new formating!!!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:18 PM
kanye looks like he's wearing black khakis with his jacket instead of tuxedo pants. amber looks nice but she should be wearing an evening gown.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:19 PM
Zoe is not hot.
with that said,…
Kanye looks very handsome and I love Amber's look. She should have add some false eyelashes to give her a more dramatic look. It would balance out her bald head.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:19 PM
Why is she holding her clutch like that? But she does look alot better than what we've been seeing!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:20 PM
Rihanna has concurrence with Amber fierce !!!
miam miam -love the dressand the fur)
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:20 PM
Kanye and Amber look great… but I guess a pair of Givenchy stockings would have been too much to ask.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:20 PM
kanye is looking hot
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:21 PM
I see Kanye’s upgraded her look, taught her how not to speak, and taught her how to kick the same pose at all times.
:::::::
Wow lol …why are people going hard on a chick they don't even know? What's the problem here? Anyways, I love this chick Amber Rose…her style is on point…she wears what she wants and not for other people's approval.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:22 PM
Amber rose is hard in the face, but cute in the waist. I like the outfit, thank god Kanye got her a stylist!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:24 PM
Zoe looks really elegant. I always look forward to seeing what Zoe and Joy Bryant wear. They both rock natural-looking hair and makeup and fashion forward, laid-back looks. They never look like they're trying too hard. I love that they shun the (yawn) normal young black woman in Hollywood uniform of weaves and leggings and Herve Leger dresses.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:25 PM
I agree that she looks better but she still says hood to me with that pose and all that thigh out at the Opera. I guess its true, you can take a girl out the hood but you cant (all yall know the rest)
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:27 PM
Ok, they look great! I love the look on both of them. Are they dating, or are they in some weird fashion show, and we are the only people who will show up to look at them walk the runway?
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:28 PM
You really think that chick picked out this outfit?? She cant even figure out how to carry a clutch! HAHAHA! Soon as Kanye finishes ruttin on her she'll be last weeks news and next week's reality star.
Amber Rose… how to be Skripperiffic, with celebrity host.. EVE! HAHAHAHA!! xD
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:31 PM
i prefer the Knowels Sisters 's legs :-(
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:31 PM
Zoe looks high as hell in that first pic of her…
I heard this morning that ol dude Trick Trick had been shot and was in serious condition. Now he's saying he wasn't even there?? Somethin ain't right
Even though I'm not really feeling that Amber chick, I gotta admit, she gave Kanye his mojo back. He seems to be back to the old Kanye…
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:32 PM
I think Amber looks nice. But there is something about her face that looks better with sunglasses. But at least they look happy. Wonder what they talk about??? Anyway….
Why does Zoe always look either sad or just unhappy? Even when she smile?
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:34 PM
Yea u can see it in her eyes
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:37 PM
I'm starting to like Amber
Do I really have to type in my name each time??? Grrrrrr :S
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:37 PM
I love Kanye and Amber together. They rock! She's got her own style and doesn't give a "F".
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:39 PM
Kayna and his girl look really nice and classy together.
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:41 PM
she's very pretty tho the color of blush gives off the illusion that she has fat cheeks when in fact she has a slender face. i like her tho overall…fresh new look…not the same ole blond wig yuckity-yuck
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:41 PM
Ye's ghyl looks like she is uncomfortable and out of her league with all of those classy people. LOL! This is pure comdey! They looks like two queer dudes going to the Pimp Ball. LOL!
Mon, March 16, 2009 3:43 PM
Amber Rose looks pretty good. I love the white dress and the black clutch purse. They both look like old Hollywood.
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:01 PM
it would be nice to see some other black stars hanging out at places like the opera or musems. not all blacks hang out exclusively at clubs
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:01 PM
Kanye KNOWS he is GAY.
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:03 PM
2009 Version of Pretty Woman…Go Ye..lets see if they stay together
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:09 PM
I don't like Amber's fit…
And Miss Info said Jimmy called her at four in the morning saying he was not shot at
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:13 PM
*sigh* I hate rappers….2009, black prez and n@#%&@ still trying to kill one another.
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:17 PM
Can't hate at all… that Amber is a BAAAD chick!!!! Tat's and all!!! LOL (Kinda) … I like what Ye has done! Keep it up!!! ;)
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:21 PM
Kanye is too good for her. I will never understand the need of dynamic men to associate/carouse with trash. As an upstanding black man with a law degree, no babies and a fruitful career, a woman like Amber Rose couldn't tell me the time of day.
A real black woman of beauty CLASS and SUBSTANCE, that's what's up, and not some hood rat stripper turned celebrity.
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:23 PM
Don't lie now LOL….JK
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:39 PM
Soon as Jim Jones gets shot and killed the better of hip hop will be.
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:43 PM
Zoe!!!!!! i love her!
Mon, March 16, 2009 4:56 PM
Zoe Saldana needs to eat and to sleep! She looks so skinny and tired!
Kanye and Amber are gorgeous! Amber is really beautiful…
Mon, March 16, 2009 5:30 PM
I agree. With the tats, wide-leg pose, and the hard face, it just screams HOOD!!! But I love the shoes. Gotta find those to add to my collection.
Mon, March 16, 2009 5:40 PM
Amber looks beautiful. Glad she toned down the makeup.
Jim Jones look Dirty
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:06 PM
Amber is NOT pretty!! It amazes me what society today thinks is soooo pretty. She looks OK. That is it.
Zoe is pretty!! She has always been petite like that. She was a ballet dancer for many years. She's been slim since she has been in this industry!
Kanye looks OK
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:07 PM
*cue The Dream – Fancy*
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:22 PM
LOL@ Natasha saying Kanye taught her how to pose. It does look pretty staged. But she looks pretty hot though!
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:23 PM
Zoe need to eat. She a good looking girl, but she too dang skinny!
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:23 PM
I have questions…
WHY does it look like Kanye's taking a picture with guy in a white dress? Two handsome young men! LOL
WHY does that stripper who Frankie is standing in front of, TOE look like he go it caught in a blender?
and WHY does the expression of Zoe Saldana face in the first pic look lie she just pooted and is all embarrassed?
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:31 PM
Amber consistently kills me with her shoe game. Damn her!
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:33 PM
Zoe looks high because she is hungry. She needs to grab some KFC, STAT!
Mon, March 16, 2009 6:40 PM
I agree with Tasha on this one because it seems more like a business arrangement than a relationship, but who knows? This is a GOSSIP SITE which explains why the creator and all the commentors GOSSIP.
Mon, March 16, 2009 7:18 PM
Ok, chick is officially Fab. Loves the dress, shoes, hair, makeup…everything. Bravo!
Mon, March 16, 2009 7:25 PM
Amber looks so nice…she and Kanye (she's growing on me) they look great together..
who cares about HATING ASS JIMMY or trick trick..i mean really??
Mon, March 16, 2009 7:26 PM
oh and zoe looks a mess..a complete mess
Mon, March 16, 2009 7:29 PM
they look really elegant
Mon, March 16, 2009 7:36 PM
There was absolutely NO shooting going on @ Esko Saturday. Believe me! *smh* @ that rumor!
Mon, March 16, 2009 8:19 PM
Amber is serving it up in these pictures! I can't hate.
P.S.- I am a born and raised citizen of Detroit and the story on Jim Jones is embarrasing. First we get recognized as being chain snatchers and now we're trying to kill the likes of Jim Jones! I need to move…sigh.
Mon, March 16, 2009 8:39 PM
I usually like the way Zoe looks but she looks skeletal and old on those pics. I think she could use a burger and a milk shake in an IV drip STAT!!!
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:32 PM
Thank God for Amber Rose….She makes Mr. West look his best………She's a superstar without him….Just look at the beauty in the girl…..
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:34 PM
The dress couldn't have been a LITTLE more classy for a gala? I mean, that's a little too much thigh hanging out when I can see her upper thigh tight peak-a-booing. Other than that, she looks nice.
Kanye looks great, though
Zoe looks fab
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:35 PM
And when will these rappers leave the hood behind and grow their asses up!? :@
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:35 PM
alright… so Amber is finally getting it together, you don't have to show EVERYTHANG your momma gave you to look hot…i feel like her theme song shoulda been Destiny's Child "Nasty Girl" over the past couple weeks, but this look is acceptable… still some ways to go though… that slit is a lil high for the event…but acceptable
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:40 PM
I am starting to like this Amber chick also. She is so fierce, I know alot of it is Ye's money but not everybody who got money can dress like she does. She is giving Rihanna a run for her money in the style department. And Kanye is looking kinda sexy, I like them together.
Mon, March 16, 2009 9:54 PM
Amber is fierce…end of story.
Mon, March 16, 2009 10:33 PM
Glad to see Amber classing it up a bit. And Zoe looks nice.
Mon, March 16, 2009 11:23 PM
I LOVE KANYE AND ZOE…KANYE SHOULD DROP FUGLY AMBER FOR ZOE.
Mon, March 16, 2009 11:42 PM
I have always liked Amber Rose- even though I still don't know why she's relevant. She reppin for the girls when the short cut and pretty faces. However, she does look like she's on display in every pic she's in w/ Kanye. I think this is a publicity stunt to gain attention.
Mon, March 16, 2009 11:43 PM

“Why does Zoe always look either sad or just unhappy? Even when she smile? She’s hungry …
Tue, March 17, 2009 2:45 AM
i am starting to think kanye loves having a doll to dress and accessorize all pretty. yeah.
Tue, March 17, 2009 4:00 AM
Is it just me or does it seem like 'Ye is starring in his own stage play written and directed by him. Contrived is how I would describe everything about him..ugh. He is not a REAL person just a reflection of the image he has in his big ol head!
Tue, March 17, 2009 6:22 AM
I agree with you Amber is too dressed down for the night at the Opera. Kanye is dresses appropriately but Amber looks like she is going to the club… though she looks gorgeous.
A nice long evening gown by let's say Marchesa , Elly Saab, Cavalli or Versace would have done the trick; these designers know how to do sexy but classy. I would guess that is where Amber is trying to go.
Tue, March 17, 2009 6:56 AM
This black on black violence is idiotic, petty, ridiculous and damn right self destructive.
While other people are trying hard as they can to inspire the black youth to reach the sky – Oprah, President Obama e.t.c. Others are trying to pull them back
Most Rappers are sociopaths -yes I said it!! When you do not care about the consequences of your "art" and the message you are sending out to young kids-You are a sociopath.
When you go around killing people because of some stupid beef , you are a sociopath.
When you get yourself sent too jail and brag about it as a way of getting " street cred" you are a sociopath.
As far as I am concerned all these sociopaths can be sent to an Island somewhere, like they did back in the day with Australia. Send them out there so the can wipe each other out with no innocent people on the way. Our black communities need members with social responsibility not someone who is working so hard to destroy things people are trying to build. Rosa Parks sat on the bus and MLK walked so Stupid rappers can act how they act? Damn shame? If they are really are into killing I think Blackwaters is hiring.
Detroit is one of the most dangerous cities in America, I would rather be in Afghanistan than detroit. People are killing people like it is a back men hunting season and the prey is the black man. *sigh*
Tue, March 17, 2009 7:45 AM
Man, puleeze, that cow needs an overhaul! Jim Jones wanna be all hard, so you get what hard call for! LMBAO!!! :p
Tue, March 17, 2009 10:16 AM
amber's shoes are hit and i love her style
Wed, March 18, 2009 11:10 PM
So i actually live in detroit and can tell yall first hand
I was at esko on sunday,
Jim Jones was there
There was shootin 2 people got shot (keep them in your prayers)
i female and one male…[the female got shot in the ass and idk about ol dude]
trick trick was NOT there!
thats my homegirls fam like serious fam and he was NOT at the club
yes he could have set him up but we will never no
Thu, March 19, 2009 6:38 AM
Amber looks gorgeous most of the time but i still don't feel like she's the chick for him. The head might be good, but whats really going on in HER head. Ye' lets look a lil deeper. I feel ur lime light is trying to be intruded on. Just sayin'….Rich Kidz. Check
Thu, March 19, 2009 8:17 PM
He cut that hood mullet or whatever that shit was!
