There are three sides to every story. And from the outside looking in (*raises hands*), it’s pretty tough to remain objective and see what the real truth is, nonetheless, we shall try and paint the picture of the drama surrounding R&B Divas (Atlanta). As you know one of the show’s creators, Nicci Gilbert is one of the break-out stars, entertaining and controversial. And from what we hear, she not only has issues with cast mate Syleena Johnson, but things aren’t going too well behind-the-scenes. This week, a petitionwas launched, requesting that TV One remove Nicci from the show.

While we can’t decipher who created the petition, Nicci points the finger at the show’s executive producer, Phil Thornton. Friday afternoon, she went on twitter, giving folk a rant of sorts about why she’s upset with the direction of this season. She wrote:

This whole issue started when they disrespected my daughter in Season 1. Now they r disrepecting HER CHARITY EVENT!..OKAY HERE WE GO THEN … It’s so sad when u work for years to create something amazing like this & because u refused to be disrespected u get a public lashing … But when u start lashing at my family it becomes a different game…BRANDY does NOT DESERVE THIS … Being a Black Woman who speaks her mind and tells THE TRUTH has its benefits & it’s disadvantages…I’m bouta BENEFIT from it & GO ALL IN! I don’t care enough about being famous to have to become famous this way… shame on u for destroying friendships#Fb … You think I’m a b!tch wait till u meet KHARMA…#FB Y’all just have know idea & it’s heartbreaking to watch this “divide and conquer theory” turn special into ordinary #FB I can promise u that next season it won’t be me but unless changes are made it will be someone else & none of us deserve that #FB

She then explained the rant above, pointing the finger at the show’s executive producer:

Sorry I just saw a series of disrespectful tweets from the producer I brought on board @phillionaire and had to RANT. If I have to be the woman u see on TV to be successful Ill Pass…Something that doeant degrade me and humiliate my family will come along. People cant play fair so they play dirty…Id rather go thru the fire and come out brighter #FB

AS you know Future and Ciara are totally in love right now!  At the same time Ciara and Rihanna have an on going beef, and Future and Rihanna have a chart topping song out right now.  Usually with a hot song out, a video comes next. But for reason a video isn't in the works any time soon.

According to The Source in an exclusive interview, he thinks it has something to do with RiRi's beef with his girl Ciara. He also said that he felt the song should've been an official single, and opens up about his personal life:

"Sometimes it's hard to open up about your personal life, your relationship because you always want the music to be in the forefront. You want the music to be the biggest carrier of everything that you represent," Future told MTV News of his interview in the July 2013 issue, which hits stands on June 18.

He also says why he says the video never happened;

"We never shot a video, we never performed it. I don't know whether it was because of that situation or if just the time hasn't come up."

Alright, so Ciara was headlining the LA Pride Festival on Saturday. All the details are not solid but, I am guessing there was some kind of agreement made that included a performance at The Hit Factory's pre-LA Gay Pride event. She did not attemd, so they decided to sue her and serve her papers while she was on stage performing“Promise.” Here is how it went down a woman handed her the papers from the side of the stage on camera. Ciara took a look the paper and nicely handed them right back, never coming out of character during her performance! WERK Cici! According to Ciara's reps, she notified the club in advance that she would not be able to make it but they continued to promote that she would be there. Check out Ciara getting "served" and performing “Body Party” and “I’m Out” below: Ciara performs "Promise" and Handed papers: Ciara performs "Body Party": Ciara performs "I'm Out": TMZ , Necole Bitchie

In a recent episode of "Love and Hip Hop ATL", Chris Brown's long time tour DJ, Babey Drew, gave an investor $50,000 to start a sneaker boutique in ATL . The investor ran off with the money, and half of the money went to Traci Steele. As if things could not get worse.... According to Baller Alert, Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta's DJ Drew -- the father of co-star Traci Steele's son, has been fired from his day job as Chris Brown's DJ. A source said, "Not only has Drew lost his $50,000 sneaker store investment but he's also lost his primary source of income. Rumor has it that Chris Brown has fired his longtime tour DJ. It is said that DJ Baby Drew wanted to be a celebrity more than he wanted to be a DJ. Although Chris has had the same team for a very long time, he thought it was time to let him go." Neither DJ Babey Drew or Chris Brown's camps have commented on the rumor. Story developing. [SOURCE]

Ciara's Self titled album is about 30 days away and on Friday (June 7) released a new song from the album called "Super Turnt Up." In the upbeat dance song she talks about being turnt up because of the love of her man, that we can all conclude is rapper Future. (Totally love them together) She actually spits a few rap bars as well! Listen to "Super Turnt Up" below: Also, on Friday night, another Ciara song leaked to the internet. The name of the song is called "Boy Outta Here", and Ciara expressed her love for the song during her "One Woman Army" interviews.

Bruno Mars' mother, Bernadette Hernandez, has reportedly passed away.

According to the Associated Press, a publicist for his label Atlantic Records revealed to them that the mother of the hit record star has died of a brain aneurysm.

The 55-year-old's death comes after reports revealed that she suffered a heart attack while in Hawaii this past week, and was treated at a hospital in Honolulu.

While Bruno and his siblings have kept things hush hush on their Twitter accounts, him and his brother Eric were spotted in LA this past Friday, the same day their mother suffered the heart attack.

While details haven't been officially confirmed by any member of their family just yet, we will keep Bruno and his siblings in our prayers.
