Nicki Minaj covers Fader Magazine
Alicia Keys covered the latest issue of Gotham Magazine
She looks unrecognizable to me, especially considering the pictures that surfaced of her sans makeup in Heathrow Airport last week.

Everyone hates Tiger
Tiger Woods is scheduled to give a statement this morning at 11:00am on ABC, NBC, CBS, and ESPN regarding his recent scandal and his future in the sport of golf. Players, sponsors, and members of the media alike are all speaking out about their displeasure with his timing and handling of the "press conference."
Ernie Els did not mince words when telling Golfweek his opinion on the timing of the Woods statement; Woods scheduled his appearance on the Friday of the Accenture tournament in Broken Sound in Boca Raton, Florida. "It’s selfish,” he said. “You can write that. I feel sorry for the sponsor. Mondays are a good day to make statements, not Friday. This takes a lot away from the golf tournament.”
The Golf Writers Association voted overwhelmingly to boycott today's conference due to a breakdown in negotiations over the terms. Journalists are angry Woods will be speaking via closed-circuit camera from a location a mile away from them and will not be taking any questions. They released a statment saying in part:
“I cannot stress how strongly our board felt that this should be open to all media and also for the opportunity to question Woods,” said Vartan Kupelian, president of the 950-member group. “The position, simply put, is all or none. This is a major story of international scope. To limit the ability of journalists to attend, listen, see and question Woods goes against the grain of everything we believe.
The GWAA also believes strongly that its presence, without the ability to ask question, gives credibility to an event that isn’t worthy of it."
The public criticism marks a shift in the usual deference afforded Woods in the golf world and could mark a permanent end to his overwhelming power and dominance in the sport.

Alicia Keys' coverage appears spotty
Alicia Keys' coverage appeared "spotty" as she arrived in London's Heathrow Airport in advance of her performance this week at the 2010 Brit Awards. I wonder what happened to Swizz Cheese?
Carmelo and La La are gonna get hitched!
Evander Holyfield's wife has cancelled the restraining order
Evander Holyfield and his estranged wife have reconciled and decided to seek marriage counseling from TV's Dr. Phil. They released a statement saying:
“We are in agreement that we both are moving forward to reach out to meet with Dr. Phil one-on-one as we believe he is the one who can help us at this time…We each admire and respect Dr. Phil for his down to earth and heartfelt approach in working with couples and relationships in a positive and uplifting way.”
Jennifer Hudson Got Milk?
Oscar and Grammy Award-winning artist Jennifer Hudson is the lastest star to participate in the "Got Milk?" campaign. Jennifer explained why she chose to promote the dairy product:
“[Milk] was definitely a part of my upbringing for sure,” she said. “I definitely want to have that on my kitchen table.”
I think Jennifer looks great in her photos, but I have to ask: either she has a phenomenal post-baby fitness routine or someone deserves the photoshop of the month award. Now don't get me wrong, I love sistergirl's curves, but we all know she's got a dunk.
