Meek Mill is finally speaking out on the reports of a possible engagement between him and rap star girlfriend Nicki Minaj!

In an interview with Fader (conducted back in April), Meek said that he isn't engaged to Nicki just yet. "It's definitely real," he said. "But it ain't really time to get married yet. We're still learning each other, feeling each other out."

Back in April, Nicki posted a shot of a heart-diamond ring on her ring finger on Instagram, which lead everyone to believe that maybe she and Meek were engaged. This is the first time either of them are speaking out about it.

Did anyone really think that they were engaged, though? I mean, maybe it's just me, but I saw it as a cute little present if anything. I didn't believe that Meek would give her a heart-shaped engagement ring for real. Whether or not they will actually walk down the aisle is still to be determined, but that's their business. I wish them well in their relationship.

The Hollywood Reporter has come out to say that Jennifer Lopez may be coming back to American Idol—to replace Mariah Carey! Their sources say that Idol producers, along with Fox executives, began negotiations with J. Lo, who was a fan-favorite judge during seasons 10 and 11, to rejoin the show. However, when Mariah got wind of it, she threatened to sue! THR also went on to report that producers want to bring Jennifer back for the season finale next month regardless, and that no judge’s job on the panel (not even Randy’s) is safe!

Reps for Fox and Mariah both denied THR's report. Show producer Nigel Lythgoe told THR: "I have not been included in any conversation regarding replacing Mariah with Jen this season."

A show source also tells THR that possible replacements include a music professional, "not necessarily a star" to join the panel next year (THANK YOU!).

These are all reports, but who knows what’s going to happen with AI. This is why I think that this show should have been canceled quite a few seasons ago. When your focus is on who’s on the judging panel instead of who’s singing on stage, there’s a problem. But whatever. FOX will keep this show going until the last wheel falls off, it looks like.

Do you think that Mariah will be replaced, either with Jennifer or someone else? Is it time for the whole show to end?

Chris Brown and Rihanna apparently were spotted making out at NYC's Griffin nightclub Monday night!

The exes were "hugging and kissing," an eyewitness at the club said to Celebuzz. THEN, Chris was photographed leaving the same hotel where Rihanna was staying on Tuesday night! Coincidence? HA!

At the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards a few weeks back, Chris congratulated Rihanna on her Video of the Year win with a kiss on the lips. That, of course, did not go over well with Chris' girl Karrueche Tran! According to a source, she "totally pissed off. She felt the kiss was a public slap in the face." In fact, on that same day, Karrueche tweeted, "There's a difference between a man and a boy." She then added, "I prefer men." This just all adds to the rumors we've been hearing basically all year of Chris and Rihanna hooking up.

I've always felt that Chris has been using Karrueche to try to get over Rihanna, but to no avail. I say that he and Rihanna should just be together already, and stop playing with Karrueche's emotions. Rihanna still loves him, and Chris is clearly not over her, so just be together!!!

Thought I would just do a recap on some of yesterday's news. A LOT WAS GOING ON YESTERDAY! Too much in fact.

Soooo....East Coast, how about that earthquake yesterday?! People are still talking about it, telling their stories. Where they were, what they thought it was, and everything. I was at the movies after a failed trip to the doctor's, and all of a sudden the theater started shaking!!! Looked around after it stopped, and everybody had that "WTF was that?!" look! Then the second shake hit, and everybody took to running (Note that it was a lot of us black folks, and we tend to run first, ask questions later. Hope that didn't offend, but I've found it to be true haha). Absolutely insane...glad there were no major injuries or fatalities. I do know some buildings were condemned around the DMV region though, and extensive damage to the National Cathedral (pictured left) in D.C. at the top. I know it's a regular day in the neighborhood to you all on the West Coast, but on the East, that ain't us! ESPECIALLY IN D.C., MARYLAND, AND VIRGINIA! We're not prepared for any type of extreme weather! (See Snowmageddon). Anywho, hope everyone is well.

Read more after the jump!

Second, let's talk about this mess of a rumor from InTouch Weekly about Will and Jada Pinkett Smith separating! When I first heard it, I said to myself, "If they can't make it, who can?!" There's not too many celebrity couples out now that have made it past a few years, let alone to the double digits like Will and Jada. Jada's publicist got word of it and responded to TMZ, "In Touch Weekly said that? Lord. I'm going back to bed." I laughed my head off. I also read this morning that rumors were going around that Jada was cheating on Will with Marc Anthony, her co-star from her hit show HawthoRNe! All lies. That's why I don't write ANYTHING on this blog unless I get it from my reliable sources online, which are few and far between, or see it myself. So that's why the Will and Jada story wasn't up.

Also, the Brenda Song pregnancy story wasn't up, because I didn't totally believe it. Rumors came a few years ago in 2008 that she was pregnant with Joe Jonas' baby, which of course, were untrue. According to Celebuzz, she's pregnant with Trace Cyrus' baby. There hasn't been anything from either of them or their teams. So for now, I'm still a bit skeptical. I remember a while back when blogs and sites reported that Beyonce was pregnant, and I actually believed them! Come to find out that it was FALSE! And I was greatly disappointed. So I tend to be a bit suspicious if there's no word from the actual couple. If they are having a baby together, congratulations to them!

Great day indeed!
