Kelly Rowland Loves Lil Wayne

Singer Kelly Rowland is the latest celeb to sing the praises of rap star Lil Wayne. Following kudos from Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow, Ms. Kelly is also a huge fan of the Cash Money/Young Money superstar.

"He's just an artist that loves music," said Rowland. "You can tell that just by how genius he is on his records. When I loved this record ["Motivation"], I was hoping he would love the record. And you can tell that it vibed with him or it connected with him in some sort of way for him to do what he did on this record because when I got it back -- I literally was at a loss for words."

Jada Pinkett Smith On Parenthood

Jada Pinkett Smith addressed the criticism of she and her husband, actor Will Smith, and the fact that their two youngest children, actor Jadan and singer Willow, have become pint-size celebrities in their own right. Jada stressed that she and Will aren't harming their kids by allowing them to pursue their dreams under the glare of the spotlight.

“There are so many other kids you can worry about," Jada told Uptown magazine. "My kids? They’re going to be all right. I get why people would criticize. But people need to know that Will and I would never put our children in a situation that would bring them detriment, my kids have no idea how I grew up, Even in knowing my story, they couldn’t know what that means. They have no RE-ALI-TY. None."

"My feeling is, my kids need to have challenges," she continued. "In a safe way. If I survived everything that I survived in Baltimore and Will survived everything he survived in Philly, these kids surely can survive the Hollywood game."

"With so many heavyweights surrounding them—from Beyoncé and Jay-Z to Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith to Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony—if they can fail in a circle like that, then they weren’t going to win in the first place," she added. "All I want for Trey (Will’s oldest son from his first marriage), Jaden, and Willow is happiness."

Diddy STILL Not Over J. Lo?

With Diddy Dirty Money appearing on "American Idol" next month, the King of Doing-Too-Damn-Much just couldn't resist gushing over his former love and current "A.I." judge, Jennifer Lopez. The two haven't been an item for over a decade, yet Diddy can't seem to stop reminding the whole world of what they used to be. The mogul praised J. Lo's success on television and in her personal life.

“She’s just looking so good. You’ve got to give it to her for having twins and to be doing it how she’s doing it. I’m so proud of her,” Diddy said. “The way she handled coming after (former Idol judge) Simon (Cowell)… she’s been, like, a compassionate person. She has made me cry, like, twice, and she’s looked good doing it. And she has made sense."

“She’s a nice person (and)… when you’re super nice, your emotions get the best of you," Diddy continued. "It’s good though, it’s good to see that change in the competitive shows. I think she’s very refreshing.”
