ESSENCE’s November issue features Beyoncé who talks about life in the spotlight–and being Mrs. Shawn Carter–in the article entitled, “I Am Legend.” And it’s about damn time. Also, after a failed marriage that swirled with innuendo and a short-circuited television comeback, Star Jones talks about her controversial bypass surgery and why she’s ready to find love again in “Starting Over.” Then in “Child Brides,” ESSENCE explores why all over the world girls as young as ten are given away in marriage to men several times their age. This month’s issue also features tips on surviving the financial crisis, hot looks for fall, our 2008 Election Guide and more.

And be sure to check out Beyonce’s Essence cover story for your favorite gossipist’s take on the B Season publicity drama. Oh yes, YBF indeed was tapped to give insight and quotes for Beyonce’s cover story…and hopefully they weren’t edited out for suspect reasons. *half smile* The November issue of ESSENCE hits newsstands on October 12th.

Rumors of wedding colors, attire, location, and more are circulating heavy as all hell today about the alleged Jay-Z and Beyonce wedding. Reports said that today (4/4) is indeed the wedding date, and a prominent source in Beyonce’s camp allegedly confirmed last night that a wedding is indeed taking place today. Damn. Said source even gave details that the wedding guests were told to only wear ivory, it’s taking place in NY, the location was not written on the invitations, and it will be a small private affair with a several celebrity guests including the Williams sisters. Kelly Rowland was in London all week, but conveniently is back in the states today. And chick posted a Youtube video today…randomly chillin’ with Michelle on the vid as well…being uncharacteristically extra vague and giggly about their current location. The video and more when you read the rest…

So Ricky Romance hit up the Wendy Williams show today and had some interesting backtracking things to say about this whole Chris Stokes situation:
WTF is REALLY going on here? Aside from me falling out at Wendy’s sarcastic ass remarks I’ve come to love, I swear I had a migraine after listening to this ish. Now the same dude who was pissy Raz B let Stokes intimidate him into backing out of his story…is actually doing the same thing himself. He tells Wendy that Chris never touched him and that stuff he talked about didn’t really happen like that. Ricky also says was wrong for coming out with the story the way he did and he regrets it all. He just wants everything to blow over and for the love to “continue”. *blank stare* I’m done.
The Randomness:
1. Rumors are rampant that Jay is about partner up with Apple for a brand new music format distribution deal. Supposedly it’s going to be his new daytime gig.

Just as folks speculated a few months ago, Paula Patton and Robin Thicke are indeed pregnant….or at least look to be. They both hit up Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club Opening in Vegas last night to party it up. And chick is glowing all over the place.

It’s that ooh-look-at-me-I’ma-celebrity-sitting-coutside time again. Our fave courtside couple hit up the Nets v. Cavs game last night in Jersey:



Jay and B were looking laid back but still fabulous.

Here’s a different one for the books:

Beyonce first rocked the Alexander McQueen skull scarf a few months back on a trip to Paris. And her man Jay just rocked the men’s version of the scarf this weekend on his birthday trip to Paris. So…
WHO RAN IT?!
