“12 Years A Slave” star Lupita Nyong’o is having a moment. Yesterday, the 2014 Academy Award nominations were announced listing Lupita amongst her peers in the “Best Supporting Actress” then took home the Critics Choice Award for her role. Lupita accepted her award in a white Calvin Klein gown that accentuated her glowing brown skin. The crowd roared with applause after she gave an emotional speech thanking Julia Roberts for taking a picture with her brother and acknowledged her competitors.
Afterwards, Lupita posed for a picture with Oprah who posted the image on her Instagram with the caption, “My favorite photo of the night at Broadcast Critics Award. Lupita N’Yongo.. #12yearsaslave.” Oprah didn’t receive a nomination for her role in “The Butler” but isn’t upset about it. She told The Insider , “If anybody says I was upset or angry than that’s not the truth.”
We were upset for her…

LeBron James & Joe Budden Caught Being Thirsty
LeBron James may have tied the knot last year, but that isn’t stopping him from (allegedly) getting other girls’ numbers. LeBron was accused by NBC Associate Producer Stacey Klein of exchanging phone numbers with another woman right in front of her eyes.
“Pretty decent day at the WH today. The Miami HEAT gave a “POTUS” jersey to the head honcho and I watched LeBron ask a girl for her number, right in front of me. He just got married in September. #happilyeverafter #champions #picstitch,” she wrote on Fcebook with this photo:
In other men ain’t s**t news, Joe Budden was caught on Instagram seeming quite parched over Jhene Aiko. While his comment could be taken as harmless, we must issue a side eye because he just proposed to Tahiry on national TV last week. Hmm.

Queen Latifah Hints At “Living Single” Reunion
If you got to chance to ask Queen Latifah anything, what would it be? Would you ask about her new bob, flawless makeup or about “Living Single?” Well one lucky fan seized the opportunity and called in to “Watch What Happens Live” and asked the Queen if she’d ever do a reunion with the cast. “I definitely want to everyone back on the show because it just would be fun. We’re friends, we hang out. I think everyone would have a good time catching up with everybody,” she said.
Can this happen sooner rather than later?
“The Butler” star Cuba Gooding Jr. was also on the show, watch him explain who he’d shag, kill, marry between Oprah, Renee Zellweger and Helen Mirren:

Drake Brings His Valley Voice To “Jimmy Fallon”
Drake is such a chameleon, when he’s around Lil Wayne he’s busting shots and when he gets around White boys like Jimmy Fallon he switches it up to his valley voice, but he’s so charming. While promoting his “Saturday Night Live” episode that airs tomorrow he dished on being accepted by the cool Jewish kids at his school for the first time and smoked weed with them for the first time. “I started really getting paranoid. I thought I had completely ruined my life. I was splashing water on my face like a Clearasil commercial,” he reminisced.
Gosh, he’s so funny.

Beyonce Tributes Aaliyah On Instagram
Yesterday, Aaliyah would have turned 35-years-old and celebs, fans who cherished her took to social media to tribute the fallen singer. Beyonce, who is around the same age as Aaliyah and came up in the industry around the same time, posted a photo of them on Instagram, but fans noticed that she had cropped out Kelly Rowland because Kelly had posted the image on her Instagram first.
