Bossip – 
Life as a superstar sans a steady man isn’t all it’s cracked up to be… at least for some people. Insiders say that one sexy starlet is ready to have someone put a ring on — asap. The entertainer is on the prowl for Mr. Right and her ideal candidate is a well-known NBA player.
All Star weekend was prime hunting time for the triple threat; who’s been at several major events attempting to put a full court press on the particularly handsome — and wealthy — hoopstar. The bronzed beauty hoped her rumored skills, and we’re not talking about her dancing, crooning or acting, would woo the potential suitor into making a slam dunk, but not so much.
She’s hot. She’s paid. She famous. So why can’t she seal the deal. Apparently, the screen gem’s known for going “Waiting to Exhale” when relationships don’t pan out and the baller’s calling a foul. The drama queen better change her M.O. or her next big role with be in “Home Alone”.
Geez, I know it can’t be right, but all I see when I read this is Kim Kardashian.
she doesn’t act or dance
I know she’s not a real actress but she has been in disaster movie, how I met your mother and one of the CSIs. I’m on the fence as to whether she can be considered an actress but I’m inclined to think she can.
I take ‘screen gem’ to mean she’s been in more than one movie. and I’ve never seen her dance, but then I would rather gouge my eyes out with a fork than watch her music video.
Well after the snippet of dancing I saw her ATTEMPT to do on her show I would seriously advise against it
Yeah, but she was on Dancing With the Stars … so maybe that is what the “dancing” refers to.
I know. But it still screams KK to me.
I immediately thought of Kim K, too, but she’s no triple threat. That would mean she’s equally good at singing, dancing and acting. Since she sucks at all of them…well… And wouldn’t a “screen gem” be someone who was in a movie? I suppose it could be the small screen (i.e. TV). I can totally see her going “Waiting to Exhale” on an ex, though. Hmm…I’ll be interested to see some other guesses.
I agree that the desperation sounds like her. I just don’t think the rest of description does. besides, doesn’t she have a boyfriend?
Isn’t Kim K already dating some NBA player? I live in MN and her bf owns a few restaurants around here, the local news paper said that Kim wanted to have his babies lol, and that was last week?
Yeah she’s dating Kris Humphries of the New Jersey Nets.
Kim is getting old, she need to find a husband asap, if she wants to settle down and have kids. Hell, no one wants to wait until they are in their 50′s.
who else but kim k no nba or nfl will ever put a ring on it after seeing what she and ray j did on the sex tape. All those nba and nfl guys want to do is have sex with her and pass her around like a basketball.Lebron and kobe will only hit it then quit it.lol
harsh but true
Toni Braxton?
I thought Toni was married already? isn’t she still married, or did she get a divorce?
Kim Kardashian for sure
I’m gonna go with Brandy on this one.
that’s what I thought!
Singer, Actress, Dancer (w/ the Stars)
She is on the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack
I could see her going nutzo rel easy
problems: starlet? bronzed?
she does wear some shimmery powder — maybe that’s what they mean by bronzed?
Bronzed, as in brown skin. This is coming from Bossip, a black gossip site, so it’s probably a reference to her skin tone.
Well she was engage to Quentin and then they broke up.
I wouldn’t classify Brandy as a starlet though.
I was thinking Rihanna, but Kim K does have a single coming out….
This screams Rihanna. She’s pathetic.
yea saw her so called single and it sucks.
miley?
bronzed?
and how old is she, 17? probably not as eager as a 20/30-something to get hitched.
kim k??
Kim K was my first and only thought.
Lea Michele?
she recieved a ‘triple threat’ award from Billboard, and she seems AWFUL.
Doesn’t sound like Lea Michele at all. Plus, we would have seen pics, etc. of her around during the NBA weekend and she wasn’t there. Besides, her current live-in boyfriend is an actor. All previous relationships that I know of have been actors, too. This seems like someone fixated on sports guys. And to your other comment, I don’t think she seems awful…at least no worse (and certainly better than) many a “starlet” in Hollyweird right now.
Vivica Fox? Old and still not married.
She’s engaged to some young club promoter in his 20s.
who let the world know their relationship is just a business arrangenment poor vivica.lol
I want to go with Rihanna. I think that “Screen Gems” is a clue — that’s the name of Sony Pics/Columbia Tristar subsidiary company…
Rihanna definites sings and dances, but will appear in Battleship next year (but isn’t being produced by Screen Gems).
However, Burlesque was, but I can’t see Christina Aguilera going for a basketball player.
I could see this as Kim, but she’s openly dating Kris Humphries and I don’t know about her dancing…
Rihanna is my guess too. At 30, Kim K is too old to be a starlet.
Rhianna was also in one of the cheerleading movies- Bring It On number xyz. That could be part of the acting reference as well
The ‘Home Alone’ reference made me think of Mila Kunis (dated MacCauly Culkin for years), and she definitely dances (Black Swan)…..not sure about the singing though.
Also like the Rihanna idea.
first post! much love BG
Welcome, Habs! Love, BG
YES I was thinking Mila Kunis as well because of the clues but what does she do? TV, Movies, Voice Work???
She’s Meg Griffin on Family Guy.
Mya!
who’s mya?
Singer from 1990s/early 2000s. She had a bit part in Chicago, but that was the last I seen or heard of her.
Mya was on Dancing with the Stars not too long ago.
You never heard of mya? man how the music world has change, she can really sing compairing to artist today.
It’s Snooki..lol. Wouldn’t be surprised if she put a single out..couldn’t be much worse than what we’ve heard lately. Cough..Kim..cough cough
That ring is gorgeous!
This is either Keri Hilson or Ciara
Keri Hilson is a singer, song writer and dancer
Ciara is a singer, producer, actress, model
I was at 4 All Star parties throughout the weekend and saw Tila Tequila at 2 of them…”entertainer”, “rumored skills” with dancing, crooning, acting, “bronzed”, and it’s impossible to forget how her relationships end (“Waiting to Exhale”). I’m raising my shot glass to Tila Tequila
Ciara or Brandy.
I agree that it’s Brandy Norwood. She sang on the soundtrack for a film called “Waiting to Exhale”.
Basketball star is Kobe Bryant (who she went to the prom with).
And Brandy played Cinderella in a TV movie – reference “Home Alone” when they go off to the ball and leave her at home and alone.
She was also in Dancing With The Stars. Triple threat: singer, actress and dancer.
Solved!
she was engage to Q AS WELL
This screams KK. She has a single and has acted and danced. The only thing that makes me think otherwise is if she currently has a bf, but then again a lot of her relationships are arranged by momma K for publicity.
I am not satisfied with any of the guesses, but I also don’t get the following:
“Apparently, the screen gem’s known for going “Waiting to Exhale” when relationships don’t pan out and the baller’s calling a foul. ”
Is this some slang I don’t know?
It’s a reference to the movie (Waiting to Exhale), where Angela Bassett sets her husband’s car on fire when he leaves her for a white woman.
So, our NBA player doesn’t want to seal the deal because she’ll go ape* if things end badly.
Halle Berry!
This is definitely Ciara or Rihanna but I think its Ciara
Superstar? Starlet? “…dancing, crooning or acting…”? Rihanna?!?! I don’t think so.
This is someone young-ish, but it doesn’t sound like Rihanna to me. I wouldn’t categorize her as a dancer, or actor, for that matter.
This sounds like a younger J-Lo to me (bronze), a Glee-type.
For some reason Eva Longoria leaped to mind but she’s not a singer/dancer, is she? And would she be ready to get into another relationship with a baller? So I’ll go with Keri Hilson
I wonder if its Christiana Milian, she’s single, sings, dances and acts.
she’s bronze…and she loves $$$ and she was at the festivities.
Keri Hilson has not done movies yet.
This is the best guess yet! I approve this message!
Rihanna cannot dance!
Shes not a Superstar.
Can someone tell me the age group for a starlet?
