In other Bey news, the nominations for the 66th annual Golden Globe awards were announced this morning and Beyonce has been nominated for an award in the Best Original Song in a Motion Picture category. Beyonce wrote "Once In A Liftime" for the film Cadillac Dreams along with Amanda Ghost, Scott McFarnon, Ian Dench, James Dring and Jody Street. I guess they didn't like her enough as Etta James to give her an nomination for that.

It's another boy for Usher and Tameka Raymond! But I guess we already knew that since Usher revealed the sex of the baby already. Tameka delivered their new baby Wednesday morning according to PEOPLE. A source says Usher was at his wife's side during the delivery, however the child's name has not been released.

The new Raymond joins older brother Usher Raymond V, who turned 1 on Nov. 26. Tameka, 37, also has three sons from a previous relationship. I can only imagine Usher is relieved to have so many boys and not have to deal with the karmic retribution of dealing with a daughter who might potentially dating guys like him.

UPDATE: Usher's new baby now has a name. And what a name it is. According to Us Weekly.com Naviyd Ely Raymond was born at 2:33 a.m. Wednesday and weighed 5 lbs, 13 oz. Usher told Access Hollywood a month ago the couple still hadn't decide on a name but were looking for something unique. I guess that we can safely say that goal has been accomplished.

Beyonce has the cover of Elle's January issue, but Ciara fans are also in for a treat. The singer landed a five page spread with the fashion publication. Take a look below.

I'm really wondering how much these folks were feeling Cici, considering they covered either her face or her body for nearly every shot... I don't think I like this one.

Yo Rebel...Bey aint write the song by herself dawg!!! She co-wrote this song...And I bet that she had very little to do with writing this song as well... Who was the other person or people that wrote this song???? Gues we will never know being that Bey's name was PENCILED in as a writer...Beyonce is always trying to take credit for writing someone else's song.....Somebody please slap dis bitch back to reality....

I'm sorry but those pics don't Ciara any justice and those are suppose to be glamor shots.....Wow.....Not to mention that her arms looks like a young teenage boys.

- - - Beyonce? Boo. Ciarra? Boo. Usher? Children make up for all the things your relationship can't give you.


Long live real Soul Music.
