**UPDATE!!** So, recently we posted the picture of Beyonce and G. Union at Jay-Z's 2 Kings dinner. We were absolutely infatuated with the black & white pumps she wore. We did some research and for starters those are Chanel originals that retail for about $895! The pic on the left is straight from their website...the smaller pic; far right, is our cheaper comparison. Baaaaallliinnnn on a budget ain't easy, but we try to make it work!

HAPPY Valentine's Day: CELEB GRAMMY Style

5.4.3.2.1...V-DAY! We spotted all the HOT couples at the Grammies. Yep, Yep, that is Chris Breezy!

Fergie & Fiancee- Fergie and the love of her life were looking not so clumsy at a Grammy after party; she is now engaged, to actor Josh Duhamel. Nice looking couple.

C.Brown & RiRi- Well he did say she could be his Cinderella on the "Umbrella" RMX. Guess he meant it. : ) They make an interesting couple. Lately they have been seen all over together. Sources say they even have matching star tattoos...Sound familiar...yea, "that" couple's up next...

JZ & Beyonce- were looking absolutely fab! They were spotted at a Grammy after party taking candids. Nice color choice Bey, we don't see yellow everyday!

New Music Review: Miss E RMX!

Okay so, some of you club goers may have heard the original version of this song but have you heard the remix? Didn't think so...For the REmiX Missy called up Cici and the Young Hova to grace the track. They do pretty well considering the beat is crazy...Listen and review. Ciara has been remixing a lot this year she also remixes Janet's "Feedback".

Hate it OR Luv it?!?!

MG* for a Cause!

Although, we won't tell you who to vote for, it's nice to know who we have to choose from. Cool video...Barack the vote!

MG* 'Update Ya': Superbowl!

Just when u thought the Superbowl didn't have Material Girls! Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks hold it down! They are some of the reported performers of the Superbowl!

MG* 'Update Ya': Janelle Monae

What's this we hear? Janelle Monae may be signed to Bad Boy Ent!(B.B.E.) Go Diddy! (for recognizing true talent) Anywho, Miss Monae, a sorta neo-soul rock-a-billy influenced artist, recently performed in NYC and some sources are hinting that she may be the newest addition to B.B.E. Interesting, we never pictured her signing with Diddy but it is kinda HOT! when u think about it!?!

"And when his newest act, the OutKast-influenced Janelle Monae, flaunted her unique talent with a lively performance, Diddy stood up on the booth where he was seated and cheered her on."

If you think u could rock with her catch her latest news @ her fan site...http://janelle-monae.net/

Kelly!- Miss Kelly was spotted out and about, looking absolutely fabulous! Is that a Fendi bag? nice!

MG* 'Update Ya': Louis V. Jewels!

Okay so, we all have peeped Pharrell's fashion sense. But, we weren't the only ones who have paid attention to the music icon's wardrobe taste. Designer Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton, digged his swag so much that Louis Vuitton teamed up with the fashion N.E.R.D. to design an exclusive jewelry line for their Spring 2008 collection. Above is our fave pick out of the collection thus far...Who doesn't want their own personal Angel? and the Angel bears a 'flawless' gift!?! We'll take it!

You can read more about the jewelry line Pharrell help to design @ the BBC blog...

MG* 'Update Ya': Marc Jacobs Spring 08

Fashion is art. It's that simple. Marc Jacobs depicts that statement with his latest shoe designs for Spring 2008, which have critics raving! MG* scoped out the spring line and was highly impressed. The fashion forecasts for the Spring 2008 included pastel colors, more feminine trends. But there weren't many fashion gurus that coulda predicted the evolution of the classic pump. Although, there were a lot of critic comparisons to designer Junko Shimada who prouced a similar design, Super Designer Marc Jacobs has literally made it damn near impossible to walk in anyone else's footsteps... These shoes will retail for about $600. It's still Winter, so we definitely have time to plan and save...

MG* New Music Review: Estelle!

Estelle is the best thing smokin'! She's from across the pond and possesses all the UK swag. Her music style is like Lauryn Hill from the Fugee days meets the style of Kelis! As a faithful reader of our blog, MG* is sure you've probably heard her latest single, "Wait a Minute", from our music player to the right ; )--->... Estelle follows up with her next single, "American Boy" featuring Mr. West. It's HOT! and Kanye definitely stepped his game up on this track and it's truly complimented by Estelle's lyrics. You can hear both tracks on her upcoming album debuting in February!



Want more Estelle...hit up her MySpace, it has everything Estelle...

MG* 'Update Ya': Vsmile!

According to Dr. Christine Northrup, You can make your "lower heart smile". Gives a whole new meaning to Vsmile,huh? Haha! We spotted the coolest video clip at our new favorite site Jezebel. It shows Oprah and Dr. Northrup inner smiling! Haha! All you have to do is follow a couple of breathing techniques. We haven't tried it yet, but you try it for yourself...First, 'Tyra smiles with her eyes on ANTM, now this...:)

I [lower] ♥ MG*! haha...

MG* Spy: New Look for 2008

the smaller pics are the before looks...

As you can see, January didn't just mean new year. It also meant a new look for some of your favorite celebs. For Ashlee Simpson and Beyonce, darker hues translate to sultry-incognito beginnings. As for the songstress we always seem to questionably love, Amy Winehouse went for the peroxide-blonde look, and we hear that she dyed it this way "because [she] felt like it"...we couldn't have posed a better reason...

Wanna keep tabs on these chicas personally? Search for their fan sites, you'd be surprised.

MG* 'Update Ya': Sex and the City

Spending time at home recently, MG* had time to catch up on the reruns of Sex and the City, which prompted the curiosity for the movie debut. For those of you like MG*; who breathe Sex and the City, you've probably heard some of the buzz about the Sex and the City movie. We chose not to post info about it before because we honestly didn't want to spoil the plot. But, as you can see that didn't last long, here are the movie pics. The release of the movie is going to be like the discovery of the holy grail for us; unbelievably wonderful...we think we may O.D. on Carrie's wardrobe...can't wait.

The movie is supposed to debut this Spring...
