Coming Kings 5

"Class Act”
KING issued an all-white dress code and invited some supreme clientele to toast their game-changing potential. These partygoers definitely got next.

Rochelle Aytes

"Bare Back”
As if making Madea's Family Reunion watchable wasn't admirable enough, stunning starlet Rochelle Aytes has a soft spot for strippers. Oh, did we mention assless chaps, too?

Hoopz

"Heard 'Em Say”
Returning for round two, Flavor Flav's boo, Nikki "Hoopz” Alexander, drops dime on the real flavor of love. Hint: It's more sour than sweet.

Damon Dash

"When the Smoke Clears"
In this closet-cleaning interview, hip-hop's ultimate hustler Dame Dash sets the record straight on Jay, Cam and "Jay vs. Cam.” Get ready to be rocked, fella.
