Jay and Bey Can't have it all: Jay-Z and Beyonce Lose Blue Ivy Trademark Fight

As parents, Jay-Z and Beyoncé want more than anything to protect their child...and future business interests related to their child. The Carters had been looking to do the latter by trademarking the name of their daughter, Blue Ivy, but lost that battle in court recently.

Beyoncé allegedly was interested in trademarking the name for use on a line of baby clothes, but it was already taken by a woman in Boston who had been running the Blue Ivy Events company since 2009.

The Carters were sent a rejection letter from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, which sided with the events planner and granted her a wide range of rights to use the name to promote her business.

Rihanna Sets The World on Fire in 'Diamonds' Video Tease

On the set of her video for "Diamonds," Rihanna is on fire — and so is the world around her.
The singer was spotted at the L.A. shoot over the weekend, and by the looks of it, the lead clip from her November album release, Unapologetic, finds the singer smack-dab in the middle of an apocalypse-type scenario. Yet, she still manages to look completely stylish.

In various shots taken of Rihanna on the set of the Anthony Mandler-directed clip, she stands in front of a fire and gazes into the camera. The world looks to be in a shambles around her. As for her wardrobe and style, she's rocking some longer hair after recently cropping off her locks to a pixie cut. Some of the pictures feature her in a long white gown, in others she's wearing a body-hugging black gown.

Supergal Weekend Review: Still on Tonto Dike Songs #Poko

Been a while you read Supergal weekend review folks! Now let me share my very candid opinion/review of Tonto Dikeh's debut singles that's become a social media rave this week. I don't think I can ignore sharing it with you guys and really, I don't think Tonto should get herself worked up over being so criticised over her new-found career in music when there's (actually), a few things more worse than her; and that couldn't be anything else but Tonto Dikeh doing music!

Ok, what am trying to say here is: If there's anything more worse than Tonto Dikeh doing music, it is still Tonto Dikeh doing music!

I bet a lot of people wouldn't have been really surprised if she had released a sex tape and without think she's gone too far since everyone knows Tontolet is half-an-actress.

Seriously, I wouldn't have mistaken that for an April fool prank but hell no! Tonto's epic fail of a debut was released in October!!

I mean, who releases a totally ridiculous Nollywood soundtrack (that missed it's way to the editors studio) for a single! She could have at least, featured her godson Wizkid to save us the horror of her voice.

And if Tontolet had intended making money off that record, it better be from a lawsuit I'll advice her to file against whoever her manager and producers in crime are!

Now, if watching a music channel is your second best thing, it may now only be safe and

The 24 year old British singer and her boo Simon Konecki reportedly welcomed a baby boy on Sunday. 

 New reports claim that the 24-year-old singer and partner Simon Konecki welcomed their child on Friday night.

She is said to be 'ecstatic' by the baby's arrival. Adele announced her pregnancy back in June, writing on her official blog: 'I'm delighted to announce that Simon and I are expecting our first child together.

'I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we’re over the moon and very excited but please respect our privacy at this precious time. Yours always, Adele xx'

From the "distasteful" to the tear-inducing: Nigeria’s Got Talent hits Abuja, Calabar and Benin

It moved easily from the emotional to the hilarious at the Abuja,
Calabar and Benin auditions of the country's biggest talent hunt show,
Nigeria’s Got Talent. Episode 5 took us into the final auditions.

It began with a tone of disapproval set by the judges at the Abuja
audition. The ‘Big Star Acrobatic Troop’ were unimpressive, as were
Ndanyomo Ogbonnaya, a 48 year-old man who sang in his native tongue and
Francis who used his mouth as a saxophone. The next act was from a
cross-dressing comedian called Peter. "Not only was your comedy
distasteful," said actress and judge, Kate Henshaw. "But I also find you
distasteful."

The breezy, fast-paced edition, interspersed as usual with quips and
commentary by the bubbly host Andre Blaze moved to Calabar, where the
judges found plenty to approve of. Two young men in diapers called
'Adult Babies' got the audience laughing and a singer called Debbie won
