After the release of Teyana Taylor’s cover of Drake’s “Marvin’s Room”, there was news of a video on the way. Well, here is the video for “Her Room” starring Teyana and Omarion.

“‘Her Room’ is a depiction of the battle between our hearts and minds when our worlds are seemingly shattered by the downside of love,” Teyana and director TAJ disclosed. “This piece is intended to relate to everyone that’s been down a similar road. We hope this helps.”

TEYANA TAYLOR vs. KEKE PALMER COVER ALICIA KEYS’ “UNTHINKABLE”

LexAve — Tue, 25 May 2010 17:10:07 +0000

Check out this cute video of teeny bopper, KeKe Palmer, covering Alicia Keys’ “Unthinkable (I’m Ready)”…can’t front shorty gave me goosebumps.

And now here’s Teyana Taylor’s version of “Unthinkable”…I’m loving Teyana’s raspy voice. I dunno…i’m on the fence about this one. Keke’s cover is more mainstream while Teyana’s is more raw.

WHO KILLED IT BEST?! WHAT DO YOU THINK?!

J'More — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 13:01:16 +0000

Self-proclaimed Princess of Harlem, Teyana Taylor is giving you more reasons to “Google” her! Aside from her new lip gloss line “DopeLips”, the Harlem native is set to make her acting debut in “Stomp The Yard 2: The Homecoming”. She told BV Buzz,

“I am very excited about this movie. The anticipation is crazy! The cast is dope. I am definitely ready to bring my swag to Stomp The Yard 2. Adding, “I am extremely grateful to Will [Packer], Rob [Hardy] and Columbus [Short] for this opportunity to display all of my talents in this film.”

Teyana’s not the only one making their acting debut, 106 & Park’s host Terrence J. has also snagged a role in the film. Production for the film has already begun in Atlanta.

Glad to hear Teyana is making serious moves!

And in other “serious moves” news, check out some of her new promo pics for her lipgloss line called “DopeLips”…these pics are fierce!

These pics definitely sell her “DopeLips” line! Will you buy?!

DID PHARRELL DROP TEYANA TAYLOR?!

J'More — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:32:12 +0000

After missing every episode of 90210 since its season premiere, I decided to tune in last night to catch up. To my surprise, last night’s episode featured train wreck Lindsay Lohan’s on-and-off again DJ girlfriend Samantha Ronson and the N.E.R.D crew who performed their track “Radio (W.T.F)”–and killed it! However, while watching them on my high-definition 52 inch screen, I felt like something or rather someone was missing from the crew. Wondering who I’m talking about? Hint: She’s the Princess of Harlem and has really DopeLips (No homo)!

Last year, Teyana Taylor the self-proclaimed Princess of Harlem and protégé of N.E.R.D frontman Pharrell Williams hit the scene with her eclectic style and catchy debut song “Google Me”. However, a year later the Harlem native’s long-anticipated debut album From A Planet Called Harlem has yet to hit store shelves, which makes me wonder what’s going on with her music career? Teyana has been keeping herself busy chillin’ with Chris Brown & the bloggers, modeling and now her very own lip gloss line “DopeLips” in the works. But, what I’m curious to know is when will Teyana bless us with her sultry voice and dope dancing skills; thus embarking on her own stateside tour. Hell, has her BFF, Chris Brown, even given Ms. Taylor any shine on Graffiti?! We wonder…but one thing is for sure, Teyana definitely has the voice, body, style, and drive that would definitely put these other R&B b*tches to shame (ie: Ciara, Rihanna, and dare I say even Beyonce…) There’s definitely more to the Princess of Harlem than meets the eye, so when will fans finally be granted what they’ve been waiting for so long? According to her MySpace Page, she’s still signed under StarTrak/Interscope…but while the world is in a Rihanna and Beyonce frenzy, when will Ms. Taylor get her chance to shine?!

NOTE TO TEYANA STANS: Let me make it clear, in no way are we attacking Teyana. And Teyana if you’re reading this, please don’t take this as “another blog site talking sh*t about you”….we’re just concerned fans.

In case you missed N.E.R.D.’s performance on 90210 last night, check it out below!

TEYANA TAYLOR TALKS HAVING CHRIS BROWN’S BACK!

LexAve — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:08:35 +0000

In a recent interview with Vibe.com, Teyana Taylor defended Chris Brown, claiming he’s like a brother.

A lot of people were jumping on different bandwagons and I really felt like that was wack. Before the incident between him and Rihanna, Chris had always been my brother. When we met we clicked instantly from our fashion styles to our love of basketball to dancing to everything. I’ve known him for four years and I was one of the only people that stood by his side when the situation happened. When he gets back to where he used to be, a lot of people are going to come running back and smiling in his face. He knows who really are his friends. I think stuff like this happens to really show you who really cares about you.

It’s all good Teyana is all up in Chris Brown’s corner, but something tells me shorty’s on his side to benefit her own agenda. It doesn’t hurt being known as his ride or die friend either. Call me whatever…but I get the feeling Teyana’s either showing support for future benefits… whether it be a potential relationship or a career booster. Ya know them girls that just stick around dudes as a “friend” hoping that one day, one day in a moment of weakness the dude will give in and become just more than a friend. Now I’m not saying Teyana is scheming…but ya know there’s mad girls out there like this. Sticking around, waiting for their moment of opportunity. I’m just saying, where’s there’s smoke, there’s FIRE!
