It’s been confirmed that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ 18 year old son, Justin Combs, will receive a full athletic scholarship ($54,000)  to play football at UCLA beginning this fall.  But the big questions is whether the school’s money should be used to fund the education of the son of a man worth $475 million, or if it should be returned to help fund the education of other students in need. Unfortunately, there has been some argument regarding the issue, where some feel as though he shouldn’t be awarded the scholarship due to his “rich kid” status. Honestly folks, Justin put in lots of hard work to land his scholarship and is well deserving of it.

And how does daddy Diddy feel about his son’s achievement?

 ”As a parent, this is one of the proudest moments of my life,” Sean Combs said in a statement. “This is everything a father could want in his son, for him to excel at what he loves to do.”

Looking AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

Tia Mowry bursts onto the phone, a ball of positive energy. From LA, she sounds bubbly, could even be glowing. Quite possibly, the 33-year-old mommy of Cree Taylor may still be over-the-moon about becoming an auntie.

“This is the hardest secret I have had to keep! But it’s out!!!!! I am gonna be an auntie!!!!!!!!!! OMG! Cree is gonna have a cousin!” she wrote on Twitter.

Or maybe she’s hooked on the high of Oh, Baby! an advice book about pregnancy and motherhood that hit shelves earlier this month. Within the pages, Mowry tells of her own baby-carrying journey, shares tips and pinpoints the forgotten details of when women gain baby bumps—style. It’s a dream actualized for the lovable star. ”You know how you always had a vision—well writing a book was always my vision,” she explains. “I just didn’t know what kind of book I was going to write.” -VIBEVIXEN

Memorial Day weekend was definitely and eventful one… All puns intended… On sunday I had the pleasure of catching up with Jasmine of TheJasmineBrand.com and Niki of Vibe Vixen for their co-hosted “Be Your Own Boss” Happy Hour. It was also hosted by Vic Jagger. Music was provided by the wonderful DJ Heat (The go to female deejay in D.C …. #imjustsayin). and the drinks were flowing brought to you by Qream.

Overall the event had a real chill vibe, unlike many industry events I am use to going to. It was more like a group of friends reconnecting!!! So true to Jasmine’s personality…. She is beyond down to earth and fun! DJ Heat got people moving with the music and even threw the wobble into the mix… HEYYYYY!!!! (Sidenote: I did not jump in on that because I have no idea how to do the wobble… lls.. guess I need to learn!)

Peep more pics after the break!!

Prior to Happy Hour The Jasmine Brand Hosted a “Reader’s Appreciation Brunch”,
