Brandy Jumped The Broom!
Pop star/actress Brandy Norwood got married last June to music producer Robert Smith. Robert happens to be a cousin of Darkchild CEO Rodnie Jerkins. The 23-year-old Brandy, who will turn 24 on February 11, kept the married a secret for seven months. "I've fallen in love with a very warm, gentle, understanding, and focused person," Brandy
Norwood said in a statement through her music company, Atlantic Records. "This summer we married quietly. A new experience, a new day for me—I couldn’t be happier!" Now I ran into Brandy back in January at a listening party in New York ! and she said to me, “I’m mad at you. You announced I was engaged and I didn’t get a chance to announce it myself.” Low and behold, she was married all along. The CoverGirl spokemodel’s new album “Full Moon” will be released on March 5th.

Sisqo Got MJ’s Disease
Seems as though the rumors saying Sisqo may be suffering from Vitiligo are true. Vitiligo is the same skin disease that Michael Jackson has. Vitiligo causes a loss of color in the skin, hair, and retina in the eye. Sisqo, whose “Return Of Dragon” album flopped, has been wearing gloves at junkets promoting his new movie "Snow Dogs," with Cuba
Gooding, Jr. The Dru Hill member said he was initially misdiagnosed with eczema, but doctors now believe he may have vitiligo. He is currently taking antibiotics due to a! "rash" he's acquired "from the stress," he said.
Ginuwine In Demand
After a successful run on tour with Janet Jackson, Ginuwine will now hit the road with boy band N’Sync. Ginuwine will open for N’Sync during the west coast leg of the tour, performing in cities like Oakland, Portland, Phoenix, Dallas, among
others. The tour begins March 3 through March 15. Anyone who knows me knows I think he is one of the most talented young performers out now! Ginuwine has a new single out now called “Tribute To A Woman” off of his platinum album “The Life.”
Veterans Still Working
R&B diva Regina Belle is featured in the February issue of Black Elegance magazine. The singer was also recently nominated for a Grammy for her latest album “This Is Regina” on Peak Records. In addition to her recent performance on Soul Train, Belle will be
featured on CNN's Headline News. Before heading to the west coast for the Grammy's, Regina will be making special appearances at Macy's stores as a joint promotion with the fragrance Romance by Ralph Lauren and her single "Oooh Boy" for Valentine's Day.
