Ciara and 50 have Thanksgiving:
Let's see 50 Cent and Ciara deny their relationship after this. we learned that Ciara is traveling across Eastern Europe with 50 Cent as he tours. And word is, she's not traveling as a performer - but as 50's companion.
And there's more. we learned that Ciara and 50 are so serious, that she's spending Thanksgiving with him - and not with her family in Atlanta.
Don't believe us, well check out the photo showing Ciara in Brastislava outside 50 Cent's hotel (with 50's tour manager). Why else would she be in Slovakia - it ain't exactly a tourist spot...

Carey Dorian rants about Chris Brown...and Beyonce addicted too?
FROM OUR FRIENDS AT MEDIA TAKE OUT:
Everyone knows that turning 18 is the age when a boy is supposed to become a man, not just in his own yes but to the world. But it seems teenage heartthrob Chris Brown is carrying on way more than expected. Several of Chris' female cavorts, most notably Superhead, have conformed that Chris is extremely well endowed in the genital area and his sexual prowess. And it seems he's letting that go to his head. He along with Ray J (better known as Brandy's little brother) are now two of the more well known play boys in Hollywood. And Carey Dorian ranted about her experiences with Chris on an elevator at a record label say that Chris:
"...was getting very frisky and flirty. He leaned over and rubbed his body on me and I thought he had a pop bottle in his pocket, but it was not a pop bottle at all. We didnt go further but i was very impressed"

Now Beyonce is nuts for him too. Chris and Beyonce were spotted cavorting around rehearsals for almost a week before the AMA's were televised. BUT IN EVEN JUICIER NEWS, Hollywood Gossips are now reporting that Beyonce may been under the hypnotic spell this kid seems to have on women. The major Hollywood gossips spotted Beyonce and Chris together at the same hotel the night before the AMA's....registered to the same room. The hotel later explains it was a slip up, and that "Mr. Brown and Ms. Knowles were definitely in different adjoining rooms".
But then at the AMA's and Beyonce almost never left Chris' side. She even was seen in his changing room with him...while he was changing for his performance!!!
CHRIS AND BEYONCE ARRIVE AND POSE:
CHRIS AND BEYONCE SPOTTED TOGETHER IN HIS CHANGING ROOM:
It seems as if BEE is going out of her way to be around Chris after their hotel room "slip-up".
Now the Gossips are all wondering:
WHAT EXACTLY WAS HAPPENING THAT WEEK AND IN THAT HOTEL ROOM.
Developing!!!

Kelly Rowland tickets are SUPER CHEAP
We all knew that R&B singer Kelly Rowland was having trouble selling tickets to her new concert, but this is ridiculous. Kelly has resorted to heavily discounting her concert tickets. And on Friday at the Atlantic City, NJ House Of Blues, you can actually see Kelly and Mario perform for only 75 cents. You heard us right - three quarters!!!
Here's what she had to say:
The tickets were initially selling for $40 and, officially, they still are going for $40. But if you go to the House Of Blues, you can pick up tickets for only 75 cents.
This has got to be some kind of promotion. At least we really hope for Kelly's sake that it is. Cause we checked - the Atlantic City House Of Blues has a capacity of 2,000 people. That means if you were to sell out the place, the concert will bring in a whopping $1,500. That's about what Beyonce spent on dinner last night....

Kanye Breaks Down
Last night, rapper Kanye West attempted to perform in front of a live audience in Paris, France. And he reportedly broke down on stage.
Here's how French newspaper Le Parisian reports it:
He said the word, 'Mother' and just couldn't go any further. A back-up singer, the DJ and a guitar player came over to console him. It looked like he might collapse. He just couldn't continue. He just stood there in a spotlight, crying while the band continued playing.
Kanye then reportedly walked off the stage, regained his composure and returned to perform his hit song Stronger
The French paper described his return to the stage as follows:
He was very nervous, seemed to have gathered himself up, and had a lot of energy. He kept shouting out to the audience, 'I need you... I need you right now.' and the public was screaming back. It was magic.
