The faces of entertainment icons Marilyn Monroe, Mae West and Dolly Parton are among her impressive array of ink.
She has more than 970,000 Facebook likes and 859,000 Instagram followers, and in 2013 started the hastag #effyourbeautystandards.

Mary Mary’s Tina Campbell Shoots Up Husband’s Car For Cheating [VIDEO]

I really don’t know how to feel about this one. I know that we all sin and come short of the glory of God… But I feel like Mrs. Campbell should have kept this one particular sin to herself. I know it really doesn’t matter what I think but since Tina Campbell is a public figure who promotes herself as a woman of God. I feel its only right to feature just a snippet about this episode.

I am going to reserve my final judgement till after the show airs. However, as it stands right now this just seems like “family business’ that should have been kept behind closed doors.

 

So here are the deets:

The singer’s husband Terry Campbell admitted to having several extramarital affairs, so one of the things Tina did in anger was trash his car. VladTV reports that she riddled the vehicle with bullets.

A teaser clip shows the classic convertible in horrible shape, and Terry said he had to get rid of it because it was a bad reminder.

“We had some days that were really bad, and the car is a clear indication of a very bad day,” he said. “It was my car and she thought I could have been riding around town with another women in the car, which wasn’t the case. My wife in her pain wanted to hurt me.”

Despite Terry’s efforts, it seems a lot of those bad memories still persist for Tina. In an interview with Cocoa Fab, she said it’s hard for her to watch the episodes that deal with the affair.

“How about this? Erica and I are executive producers of our show and we have approval rights and I couldn’t watch the episodes last season,” she admitted.

“Every time I attempted to watch, I went backwards and I would spaz out and I would attack based on me watching the life that I was living. It made it more real, more shameful and more embarrassing,” added Tina.

In addition, the gospel vocalist said the couple is in a much better place now, and viewers will see them heal in season four.

“Things are looking a lot better,” she said. “I think in season three fans got to experience my devastation, and they’re going to experience my recovery in season four and what that healing process looks like.”

ugh…  Check the clip below:

JAZMINE SULLIVAN HAS THE #1 R&B ALBUM

Jazmine Sullivan’s newest studio effort Reality Show, debuted at Number 1 on the R&B Albums chart. According to Nielsen Music, Sullivan’s Reality Show sold 29,000 copies in its first week. The album is currently Number 12 on the Billboard 200 charts. Jazmine was recently interviewed by Billboard Magazine and she had this to say about the heartbreak that inspired her new album.

 “The most personal song is called Forever. I’m basically crying on that song. It’s a ballad, and that’s classic Jazmine.” The singer added, “It’s a letting go song which is why it’s so personal. I feel like I came to a point in my relationship where I needed to let go and move on. I just had to do it.”

Missy Elliott joined Sullivan again on her second effort, Love Me Back in 2009. In order to properly promote the album, Sullivan went on the road with Mary J. Blige for the Music Saved My Life tour. The album didn’t achieve the commercial success that Fearless managed to accomplish, but Love Me Back spent a respective six weeks on the Billboard 200. No worries, Jasmine Sullivan knows how get and keep a few coins as she has written songs for a number of mainstream artists including “Say I” (Christina Milian), “Everything to Me” (Monica), “I’m His Only Woman” (Jennifer Hudson), “Still Love You” (Tamia), and “I Want You” (Mary J. Blige).

Jazmine is back! LOVE IT!
