WATCHING THE WEIGHT
Jennifer Hudson hasn't landed many endorsements deals since taking home an Academy Award for her performance in 'Dreamgirls,' but Weight Watchers is looking to change that. The new mother will follow in the footsteps of Queen Latifah and Phylicia Rashad as she becomes the latest celebrity spokesperson for a weight loss system. Weight Watchers has chosen the 'Spotlight' singer, who gave birth to son David Daniel Otunga Jr. just seven months ago, to be the face of its new campaign. So does this mean the former Vogue cover girl has no hope for a cosmetic gig? We hope not. [People]

TOO BE 'REAL'
It's been said time and time again that 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' cast is just not believable enough. Besides Lisa Wu-Hartwell and NeNe Leakes, all of the housewives are bachelorettes and most of them don't have real nine-to-five jobs. Well, that's all going to change this season.

Though Bravo has yet to make a formal announcement, season three is definitely bringing more fireworks than putting Big Poppa on blast. The rumor mill has it that not one, but two, housewives have been added to the mix. Entertainment attorney Phaedra Parks and model Cynthia Bailey will appear on the third season, and one of the housewives is rumored to leave the top-rated reality show mid-season. We're putting our money on Wu-Hartwell to take an early leave, since she's now pursuing an acting career. [AJC]

ALL OR NOTHING
After all the hoopla about her controversial video, Erykah Badu got a chance to show her funny side. Talk show host Chelsea Handler -- of 'Chelsea Lately' -- has made no qualms about her love for rappers. (The comedian's had everyone from 50 Cent and Ludacris to T.I. on her hit E! late-night talk show.)

So, when Badu showed up this week to promote her new album, Handler joked about how she nailed three rapper baby daddies. "If a guy looks you in the eyes, they fall in love and start wearing crochet pants?" Handler asked, to which Badu added, "or [they start wearing] a French man purse, either of the two." That's a nod to her ex-lover Andre 3000 of OutKast. The 39-year-old Dallas native then told Handler that she couldn't help her get a rapper. "I can't give you any advice, I want them all." Overall, Badu was a good sport. [Bossip]

WADE DIVORCE GET MESSY
It's no secret that Dwayne Wade and his estranged wife Siohvaughn are going through a very messy divorce. His soon-to-be-ex already alleged she contracted an STD from his extramarital affairs, but now, he's seeking custody of their two sons.

Siohvaughn, firing back through her attorney, responded by saying, that Wade was simply retaliating "for her legitimate claims regarding the abuse" he inflicted.

She further alleges that her ex has frightened their kids with his mental abuse. Wade, who is dating and now living with actress/girlfriend Gabrielle Union, says that she's "participating in alternative avenues of worship that are completely outside of the status quo," and he doesn't want the kids around that.

No telling how this one's going to play out in court when divorce proceedings start in June. [YBF]

DRAWING A BLANK
Tracy Morgan is a funnyman on his hit NBC show '30 Rock,' but he's apparently pretty hilarious off-screen, too. Actor Luke Wilson, who co-stars in 'Death of a Funeral' with Morgan, says the comedian forgot his name while filming the upcoming movie. "We were together all day...we'd been working together for two weeks at one point and it was the end of the day on Friday and I said, 'Tracy, I'll see you later. Have a good weekend," Wilson explained.

Morgan, however, completely drew a blank as to who his co-star was. "He looked over, and I was in street clothes. I could tell he didn't recognize me – after two weeks. And I said, 'It's Luke.'" But Morgan didn't recognize the AT&T spokesman outside of his work costumes.

"He said, 'Have a good weekend, Lou.' He called me Lou." [Perez Hilton]

SHAUNIE MOVES ON
Not only is Shaunie O'Neal making her own business moves by producing the upcoming new VH1 reality show 'Basketball Wives,' but she's seems to have moved on to the next one in her private life, too.

The ex-wife of NBA player Shaquille O'Neal was spotted in Hawaii with a younger man. Model Marlon Yates, 22, is rumored to be Shaunie's new man. Yates appeared in Keri Hilson's 'Slow Dance' video and on the short-lived Janice Dickinson reality series.

All we have to say to Shaunie is "Go girl!" [Necole Bitchie]

LISARAYE IS NOT THE ONE
LisaRaye has never been known to bite her tongue, and don't expect her to start now that rumors about a new man in her life have surfaced.

The 'All of Us' actress, who has a new TV One reality series, 'The Real McCoy,' is insisting that she is not dating 'Dancing With the Stars' contestant Chad Ochocinco.

Her publicist denied the rumors and at the same time put the NFL star's business in the streets. "Absolutely not! No LisaRaye isn't dating him. He is seeing a woman here in Atlanta though," Jevon Peak, Sr. said. [TV One]
