Beyonce Knowles and her husband Jay-Z strolled down the streets of New York City showing some affection towards one other on Monday. Beyonce rocked out in a Barack Obama t-shirt, blue jeans and red pumps. Casual yet fierce! I am loving it. I am indeed in need of a new Beyonce CD with the quickness! Thoughts?

The THISDAY music festival now in its third year is meant to showcase talents from the African continent. It aims to paint a positive picture of a continent viewed by the international community as a hopeless case. With more than 23 African countries growing at an average rate of five per cent in the last few years, the festival intends to draw attention to the success stories hardly told in the Western media.

Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri attended the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2009 Haute Couture fashion show in Paris on Tuesday – I must say Janet looks stunning in brown. Jay-Z hosted a dinner party in London with the help of GQ on Wednesday night. Supermodel Naomi Campbell attended as well, and was not kicked out of the party like she was for Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday celebration. Her ensemble might have to grow on me.

Jay-Z has responded to Amy Winehouse’s attack on Kanye West this past weekend at the Glastonbury Festival. Amy introduced Jay-Z to the stage by saying:

“Imagine if it was a c*nt like Kanye West. ‘C*nts like Kanye’ should be his next album title.”

Jay-Z told MTV.com:

“She said something about Kanye late on (in her set) but I didn’t hear it and I don’t agree with it. He’s my brother and the biggest artist on Roc-a-fella (records) right now. I guess I should hook them up because he’s a great guy too. I don’t know what the problem is – I don’t know where that (comment) came from.”

Jay-Z was very respectful and nice in his response to Amy, he could’ve been a whole lot harder on her. I think he understands her battle with drugs and her health right now, so he is letting her slide. Love muffins, thoughts?
