Earlier today, 50 Cent appeared at Platinum Studio here in NYC for the launch of his new 50’s Sound Lab iPhone app sponsored by Vitamin Water and Romplr.

50 will also be scouting new talent through his new iPhone app:

In addition to being able to remix the new single “Baby by Me” with this new app, 50 Cent is giving one aspiring fan a chance to show off their skills with him in the recording studio. Once all of the Vitamin Water remixes have been uploaded, 50 Cent will scout out the best remix of his latest single and invite that person to meet up with him.

How cute.

50 will also be hosting a secret Myspace show in New York on November 23rd to promote his new album “Before I Self Destruct”. For more information on how you can attend, hit up hiphoptix@myspacemusic.com.

Diddy is showing off a new look in the new issue of VMAN Magazine, (which hit newsstands yesterday). In this issue, he also opens up about love and shows a “softer” side:

“It’s my strength, my weakness, my kryptonite,” says the rapper, producer, mogul and fashion designer. “It’s the thing I am always in search of – and I am the type of person that if I love you, I love you hard.”

Ok then. Speaking of Diddy’s loves, his ex girl and former “Fab Female”, Misa Hylton along with his son, Justin were spotted picking up gifts at Barney’s for Diddy’s 40th birthday on the streets of Manhattan earlier this week. For those that don’t know, Diddy will be celebrating his birthday in the city tomorrow, Thursday November 19th.

Justin is growing up!

Why Does Everyone Keep Stressing Beyonce About Kids?

Aura — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:49:51 +0000

It seems as though in every interview now, Beyonce is being asked about when she and Jay-Z are going to buckle down and have kids. Clearly, this woman has no intention of settling down just yet, and why should she if she’s not ready? Blog commenters and reporters are always passing judgment on her for not popping out babies, but isn’t it enough that she’s in a happy relationship with Jay-Z and on the top of the world right now?

In a recent interview she let it be known that being in a relationship was just enough for now:

“It’s not time for that yet. But definitely there will be a time. I want to be a great mother, the kind of mother that I have. I want the same bond that I had with my mom and that would be enough for me.

“The security and love I feel being in a relationship, a marriage, it’s absolutely incredible. Incredible.”

Let the woman live! Its bad enough that there are so many people having kids before they’re ready.

After the jump, check out Beyonce doing what she does best, performing. During a recent concert in London, she even crowd surfed without missing a beat!

Spotted: Trina @ Club Imperial + Behind the Scenes of Her New Video

Aura — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 20:20:03 +0000

Trina was in NYC over the weekend making her rounds to various clubs and shooting a video for her single, “That’s My Attitude”. She looks GREAT, so we’ll forgive her for her questionable “Empire State of Mind” (Remix) that she dropped on the net last week.

Check out her behind the scenes video below:

By the way, its good that Trina was making her rounds, but we would NEVER be caught dead at Club Imperial. You’ll see why when you hop the velvet rope.

Sighhh. Yes, this is the kind of nonsense that goes on there. We’ll pass.

Video: Beyonce ft. Lady Gaga “Video Phone” (Teaser)

Aura — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:55:23 +0000

We just came across a teaser for Beyonce and Gaga’s Video Phone video, and don’t think we’re ready for how EPIC this video is going to me. Bey + Gaga! Are you serious?! Nevermind the fact that the clip was shot right in Brooklyn, and the song itself is nothing to play with!

Check it below.

The whole thing is set to drop on Tuesday, November 23rd. (Same day as Rihanna’s album )
