Is that the title? Really?

Also I can't with this EP being the most D-list version of Beyoncé ever created. Girl, we don't need 5 videos. We need 5 tracks that aren't horrendous.

[Ginger Spice]

I was just listening to her debut album (the one that remains unreleased in the US) and she had some really good pop songs. "AM To PM" is still the jam. I used to love her, shame things turned out the way they did.

"Like Me" (Full Performance)



Interview:



She confirmed a 5-song EP, and you can see the music video playing in the background of the "Like Me" performance. So, based on what's been confirmed:

1. Rebel
2. We Ain't Worried
3. Like Me (feat. Snoop Dogg)
4. Do It (feat. Lil Wayne)

Or perhaps she won't include WAW and just use that as a promo track for her clothing line, so there'll be two spots open?

She's been added to the Billboard Hot 100 Festival:

Christina Milian and Lil Wayne Break Up
by Bruna Nessif Mon., Sep. 14, 2015 9:50 PM PDT



It looks like Christina Milian and Lil Wayne have headed to splitsville.

E! News confirms that the pair have called it quits on their super private relationship after dating for nearly a year.

"They have broken up. Their schedules started getting extremely busy and the distance was not easy for them both," a source reveals to us.

"They are not on bad terms. They just are taking a break. Christina is focusing on herself now and surrounding herself with her close girl friends like Karrueche Tran. They both understand each other and girlfriends are exactly what she wants about now."

Milian's rep is not commenting.

The duo began dating back in July 2014 but kept their romance under wraps for quite a while until Milian began dropping hints about a special someone in her life.

Then, once the news was out, she couldn't help but gush about her rapping boyfriend.

"I guess I just like the mystery," the E! reality star told us at the Disneyland premiere of Tomorrowland when asked why they kept their love so secretive. "I think it's so sexy. I like to keep the sexiness going."

Milian also got a sexy new tattoo inspired by her boyfriend. The fresh skin art on her left arm reads, "love hard…TNT." So what does it stand for? "You can make your special guesses...of what that means," Milian teased (Tina and Tunechi, perhaps?).

"We have a very fun and cool relationship," Milian added. "There are so many things, what do I start with? He's very genuine. He's a very genuine person and no matter what, love comes first with him."

Entertainment Tonight was first to break the news.

[wavey.]

Ol' shit.

[Linnethia Monique]

At least get back together for the Do It video because that song is a certified jam.

[Caviar]

She'll be linked to Drake or DJ Mustard or somebody with industry pull in a few weeks. The men in the industry pass her around like chlamydia and she has no chill. And to think she has a daughter! She probably doesn't know who her father is.

What happened to that Like Me record? That sounded like her first good song in 10 years (excluding Zipper, which remains flawfree.)

Like This is Like Me if you are referring to the track that she was doing the live performance for.

New interview:

Christina Milian On ‘Grandfathered’ And Not Wanting To Be ‘Just A Reality Star’

“Some people were worried about me doing reality type stuff because they were like ‘then you can’t come back over to the other side.'"

Carolina Moreno
Latino Voices Editor, The Huffington Post

Posted: 09/28/2015 03:08 PM EDT



John Stamos is giving an inappropriately public apology on stage. The actor isn’t apologizing for something he did, it’s his character Jimmy Martino who is asking for forgiveness on the set of “Grandfathered.”

In the new Fox comedy, Martino, a lifelong bachelor and restaurateur, learns he has a son, Gerald (Josh Peck, “Drake & Josh”), and a granddaughter named Edie. As Jimmy struggles to find his place in their lives, he’ll not only encounter Gerald’s mother, Sara Kinglsey (Paget Brewster, "Criminal Minds"), but also Edie’s protective mother, Vanessa (Christina Milian).

The Huffington Post visited the set of the show in August while Stamos and company were filming the party scene for Edie's 2nd birthday, which takes place in Stamos' character's restaurant.

As Stamos finishes his awkward yet heartfelt speech on set, Milian, who is making a return to network television, spoke to The Huffington Post about making her own rules with this new role and how being a TV mother comes with its own set of struggles.

But first, Milian explained to HuffPost why the party decorations on the Los Angeles set seemed more appropriate for a celebrity gathering than a 2-year-old.

“Basically John’s character is trying to make up for lost time,” Milian said. "He doesn’t necessarily know how to do it, much less know how to be a father yet. He’s just learning the ins and outs -- and sometimes you gotta do things your way to be comfortable.”

Those feelings are familiar to Milian. The 34-year-old star has spent more than two years mainly on the reality television circuit: briefly working as a social correspondent for “The Voice,” participating on “Dancing With The Stars” and starring in her own E! reality series “Christina Milian Turned Up.”

“Some people were worried about me doing reality type stuff because they were like ‘then you can’t come back over to the other side,’” Milian said. “And I’m like that’s such traditional thinking.”

“I don’t want to become just a reality star and I always believe you can make your own rules,” she added. “I’m sure there are other people who have done acting and reality at the same time. If they haven’t, then I guess I would be the first. I would like to be able to prove that it can be done."
I have a lot of things going on in my life too, I don’t know if it’s a hot mess but it’s all very focused, I guess that’s what happens when you hit your 30s.”

On screen, her character is a twenty-something mother who gets pregnant after a one-night stand with Gerald, someone she considers a good friend. But his unrequited love for Vanessa only complicates things further.

“There’s all these fun elements of Gerald still liking me and wanting to be together with me and me being like ‘oh gosh, I gotta a lot of stuff going on and I’m not really into you,’” Milian said.

When she first heard of the role she says the casting director described Vanessa as a “hot mess” trying to figure out her life after the birth of her daughter. But what the actress admires most about her character is how determined she is to follow her personal dreams despite her circumstances.

“I have a lot of things going on in my life, too. I don’t know if it’s a hot mess but it’s all very focused, I guess that’s what happens when you hit your 30s,” Milian says with a laugh. “But I just read [the script] and I thought, ‘I can relate to this character.’”

The actress says being a television mom comes with its own set of challenges, particularly since “Grandfathered” has two sets of 2-year-old twins portraying Edie, which means Milian is interacting with not one, but four, babies.

“It’s been quite an experience because I’ve never been a mom on anything and working with kids is a whole new, not even pressure, it’s just different,” she said. “Your brain is going a mile a minute, other than your lines, you’re memorizing where you’re going to hit your mark and it’s like ‘OK, is the baby going to come to me?’”

“My first day I got a nice warm welcoming,” she added. “My first scene, I had the most lines I’ve had in that episode and the babies were crying the whole time. We were on the beach [and] it was pretty funny, I was losing my lines. And the baby wasn’t suppose to be crying in the scene.”

The solution, Milian reveals, has been spending a lot of off-screen time with the babies who portray Edie. She also says she's tapped into her own maternal instincts to create a believable bond with them on screen.

“The way that I love my daughter, I’m kissing her and I’m hugging her and I’m very affectionate with her,” Milian said of her 5-year-old daughter Violet. “I want to show that. I don’t want it to feel cold. I want it to feel like it’s my baby. As a mom, I know how you are when it’s your child compared to maybe your friend’s kids -- it’s different.”

As Vanessa, the actress says she’s excited to not only portray someone who shares her Cuban roots but is also a lot more than meets the eye. Milian thinks her character is often misunderstood, particularly by Gerald’s mother, as she tries to juggle motherhood and her dream of becoming a serious beauty blogger.

“Even though Vanessa is kind of everywhere she’s very protective of her child, that’s the one Latina and motherly thing that’s just a given,” Milian said. “She’s smarter than what you would think at the beginning. But as you get to know her there’s a lot of heart and there’s a lot behind her, [so] you need to kind of peel back the layers.”

Her EP will now only have FOUR songs, and title has been changed to 4You:





Also, her second season of Christina Milian: Turned Up premieres November 3rd:

Christina Milian Turns Up on New EP [INTERVIEW]

With a brand-new EP ‘Like Me’ plus season 2 of ‘Turned Up’ on the way, the thirtysomething Afro-Cuban beauty talks art and Lil Wayne

by Crystal Shaw King, October 13, 2015

After recently blowing out the candles on her cake for her 34th birthday, it’s pretty clear that Christina Milian’s wishes are coming true. She just celebrated her b-day September 26; she shares a beautiful daughter with singer/producer, The-Dream; and she’s got an album and reality show coming down the pipeline.

Even when it seemed like heartache would take the Afro-Cuban beauty out (it was announced that she’d split with boyfriend Lil Wayne recently), she seems to be getting along just fine. Milian was just spotted frolicking in the waves of Miami Beach, jet-setting with her bestie, Karrucha Tran.

EBONY.com recently spoke all things Christina with her: about how she’s handling her break up with Weezy, and exactly how turned up she’s going to get in season 2 of her reality show.

EBONY: You recently hosted the red carpet arrivals at the Emmys where Viola Davis made that amazing speech. What were your thoughts?

Christina Milian: It’s incredible. Women, we’re all coming together. I think it’s enlightening how much we’re able to empower each other, and I think it brought tears to all of our eyes. So it’s just incredible all these opportunities that I feel we’re bringing for each other, and it is up to us at the end of the day.

EBONY: You have your EP Like Me coming out October 30. What’s the meaning behind the title?

CM: I just feel like I’m a different woman when it comes to relationships. It’s a four-song EP, so it’s really kind of dealt around my relationship in the past year and just how I feel like I’m a different woman [with] how I work, how I deal with family, with friends, with relationships. I go in full with my heart. I’m very passionate, and I care about the people that are around me. So it’s all about life as a woman like me; just who I am.

EBONY: Do you find that listening to the songs now is a bit bittersweet, being that you’ve broken up with your ex, Lil Wayne?

CM: Not at all… not at all. I’m actually fine. A lot of people are insinuating to my relationship, but he and I are actually really good. So we’ve shot a video called “Do It” which I’m really excited about, and things are normal. I think we just have differences sometimes and we have to figure out for ourselves the right thing instead of always trying to figure it out together. Because sometimes it just gets messy.

EBONY: Better friends than lovers?

CM: Right now it is, yes.

EBONY: Your reality show Turned Up is coming back. What can we expect for season 2, more “Tina Turn Up?”

CM: Yes definitely! To the next level, oh my gosh! Turned Up season 2 is going to be crazy, November 3 is the date. My family and I just had a ton of fun. It’s crazy! There’s so many different stories, and we had one-hour long episodes, so you can imagine how they filled up that time with how much going on in a two-month period of time. It was really cool. We talk about our relationships, things that go on with the family, with my sister, everything, and it’s just very real.

[George]

Also, EP has been pushed back to November 20th.

However, videos for "Like Me" and "Do It" will premiere on October 30th.
