Chris Brown and Rihanna's 6 degrees of separation.

Chris Brown and Rihanna were under the same roof last weekend when they both showed up to Greystone Manor Supperclub in L.A. for a party.
STORY: Karrueche Is Cool! Breezy Will Never Leave Her
While many people thought Chris Brown and Rihanna had reunited, it turns out calling it a reunion would be pretty farfetched.
DETAILS: Chris Brown and Rihanna Reunited In LA Hotspot
A fellow clubgoer told PEOPLE that Rihanna and Chris Brown never even saw each other.
According to the source, the exes never interacted.

But that doesn't stop Brown from dancing to Rihanna's music. The R&B singer was out at Tru Hollywood more recently with his friends, and he was in a "great mood," said a source, who spotted him dancing on a table to her hit "We Found Love."

Chris and his girlfriend Karrueche Tran went to Greystone together and left together, making it pretty safe to say that Rihanna and Breezy never came face to face.
We also know from the pictures that Rihanna left alone. Guess RiRi and Breezy haven't come together quite yet!

Birdman plans to wager $5 million on Super Bowl By Chris Chase 23 hours ago

The opening sentence on the bio page of Birdman's official website reads: "With all of his elaborate possessions - from jewels to cars and homes; his cash money making ventures- from music to videogames to shoes and clothing; Bryan 'Birdman aka Baby' Williams is poised to continue shining in everything he does."
He once told Forbes magazine he tries to wear $1 million worth of orthodontics and jewelry every day.
He keeps at least that much cash under his mattress.
So, no, it's not surprising that Birdman wants to wager $5 million on the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI.
[Related: Birdman on Yahoo! Music]
The hip-hop artist revealed on Twitter this week that he plans to bet that figure on Tom Brady and the Pats to win next Sunday against the New York Giants. The message was both semi-incoherent, semi-profane and written with capitalization rules normally found in ransom notes, so we won't link to it here. Roughly translated, it says: "I like New England because BenJarvus Green-Ellis is my nephew. I plan on wagering $5 million on the game to anyone who wants the action."
Birdman told Billboard earlier this month that Green-Ellis is his brother's son and I'm going to take him at his word because he has face tattoos. Still, having family on the team seems like a bad reason to wager 5 percent of your net wealth on the outcome of a game. Somebody is Rex Grossman's uncle too, you know?
The rapper earned $15 million in 2011 according to Forbes and has been known to talk about his gambling exploits. He says he lost $2 million on a Miami Heat bet last year, but won $1 million on the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl. Birdman has his sights on bigger wagers in the future. He vowed to bet $10 million on Floyd Mayweather whenever he fights Manny Pacquiao.
Tweet the photos of your betting slips or it never happened, Birdman.

The accolades and honors just keep rolling in for Octavia Spencer.

“Black women actors, writers, directors and producers still lack diverse opportunities in Hollywood and, unfortunately, are often overlooked during awards season,” said Essence Editor-in-Chief Constance White in a statement. “The Essence Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon exists to provide a fitting tribute to the brilliant talent and accomplishments of African-American trailblazers like Kerry, Pam, Paula, Octavia and Shonda and celebrate their collective work as an inspiration for generations to come.”
Catch the red carpet arrivals and luncheon live streamed on Essence.com at 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. PST and re-airing that evening at 9 p.m. EST. as part of the Oscar week walkup.

Greg Kelly, son of NYPD Commisioner Ray Kelly accused of rape!

A New York woman has accused broadcast journalist Greg Kelly of sexually assaulting her last October.
Kelly, 43, co-host of the morning TV show "Good Day New York" on the Fox affiliate WNYW-TV and the son of New York Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly, is cooperating with the investigation and denies any wrongdoing of any kind, The Associated Press reported.
The woman, who is in her late 20s or early 30s, made the complaint on Tuesday at the 13th Precinct station house. The reason why she waited several months to come forward is unclear.
According to The New York Times,the woman claims to have met Kelly on the street on Oct. 8. They went for drinks at the South Street Seaport then proceeded to the Lower Manhattan law office where she works. The alleged assault occurred there, she said.
The pair remained in contact by phone and text message after the incident.
When the accuser's boyfriend learned about the encounter, he reportedly approached Commissioner Kelly at a public event and accused his son of ruining the woman's life. The commissioner suggested he write a letter, The New York Post reported. It is unknown if the boyfriend did so.
Due to Kelly's relationship with the police commissioner, the New York County District Attorney's office is conducting the investigation.
"We know that the District Attorney's investigation will prove Mr. Kelly's innocence," attorney Andrew Lankler said in an e-mailed statement.
Kelly joined Fox News Channel in 2002 and was the White House correspondent from 2005 to 2007. A Marine Corps veteran and lieutenant colonel in the reserves, he also covered the Iraq War and the September 11 terror attacks.
