"For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven." – Ecclesiastes 3:1

On Sept. 28, 2004, "BV Buzz" made its debut at AOL Black Voices and the lead feature was an interview with Tevin Campbell, who really wanted to clear up the many rumors that surrounded his 1999 arrest.

That column set a tone for the many that were to follow and as "BV Buzz" became immensely popular with Black Voices readers, more and more celebrities and high profile personalities came to us when it was time to set the record straight.

In this space I also broke some major news stories and reported countless exclusives. "BV Buzz" was the first to report that Jennifer Hudson was a frontrunner for the role of Effie White in 'Dreamgirls' on May 2, 2005. On Nov. 16, 2005, I was also given the exclusive that she had actually landed the role.

They bring the drama each week on the Bravo's 'Housewives' franchise, and though we only really watched 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' and 'Real Housewives of DC;' both reality shows had stars that offered BV Buzz a lot to talk about.

For example, 'Real Housewives of DC' star Stacie Turner recently revealed to this column exclusively that she had become an African princess.

"It was the most incredible experience ever," the real estate mogul told us.

That's not all either. When controversy brewed online with NFL star Willis McGahee and his relationship with 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Kandi Burruss, the Baltimore Ravens running back came to BV Buzz to clear up the scandal.

"I was expecting a little flack, but I wasn't expecting for it to be like this and have everybody trying to dig up dirt on you and posting all of these comments," the Miami-bred athlete told me.

Music groups makeup, breakup and some never get off the ground!

Here in BV Buzz we have broken stories about the formation of new groups like The Queen Project with Kelly Price, Tamia and Deborah Cox (they've since broken up); revealed the breakup of groups like TGT with Tyrese, Ginuwine and Tank (I lost a bet on this one); and the reunions of acts like SWV, Commissioned, Brownstone, Groove Theory and En Vogue.

Though the music industry is constantly changing, one thing stays the same – music groups just can't seem to keep the harmony.

I've always had a strong opinion and every now and then I find the need to sound off!

Here in the BV Buzz, I've been sounding off on various hot topics, current events and celebrity issues since this column launched in September of 2004.

Occasionally my opinions have rubbed some the wrong way, and there has been the intermittent backlash from celebrity types and/or their disgruntled ex-wives.

Regardless, my opinion in this platform afforded me the opportunity to share my views and insight on the nationally syndicated 'Tom Joyner Morning Show' and on television channels like CNN, MSNBC, HLN, TV One, BET, TV Guide, VH1, E! and others.

Professional wrestling has had a major resurgence as of late, particularly the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) who is making international headlines for 'Jersey Shore' cast member Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi getting in on the action at their recent 'Wrestlemania' pay-per-view special.

Additionally, WWE also garnered headlines for the return of Hollywood superstar Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who was the guest host for this year's 'Wrestlemania' live show in Atlanta.

Since this column premiered in September of 2004, BV Buzz has featured many stories on wrestling superstars, both those in the WWE and TNA.

Last fall, the 43-year-old comedienne broke news with BV Buzz first that she had signed on host the nightly game show on GSN.

"'The Newlywed Game' is one of my favorite game shows and I have loved it since Bob Eubanks was the host," she told us about landing the gig.

Additionally, Shepherd has offered this column many exclusives since joining 'The View' as a co-host along with Whoopi Goldberg in September of 2007.

Star Jones is a veteran television personality who is currently among the cast of characters on Donald Trump's 'Celebrity Apprentice.'

The 49-year-old attorney has released her first novel, 'Satan's Sisters' (Simon & Schuster), a tome that is loosely based on her time as co-host of 'The View.'

"I've dreamed of writing a juicy novel for many years," Jones told BlackVoices.com about the book.

There's already talk about adapting the novel into a feature film.

'The Game' wrapped a successful comeback season on BET on Tuesday night.

The show debuted to record-breaking numbers in January when it made its return on BET and averaged about five million viewers each week thereafter.

Actress Tia Mowry, who plays Dr. Melanie Davis on the dramedy, is happy that the show's fans continue to support the relaunch of the series.

Actor Anthony Mackie was featured on the cover of Vanity Fair's 17th annual Hollywood Issue and admits, being featured on the esteemed glossy's cover has already been a game changer.

"The magazine came out and it's interesting how the conversations have changed, which is surprising to me," he confessed to BlackVoices.com, while sitting in an empty conference room at the AMC Gallery Place in Washington, DC.

The 31-year-old actor admitted that he did not recognize the weight that the magazine carried when he was first presented with the opportunity to be featured.

Grammy winner Gladys Knight is gearing up for a return to the Las Vegas strip.

The iconic soul singer, best known for hits like 'Midnight Train to Georgia,' 'Neither One of Us,' 'If I Were Your Woman,' 'Best Thing to Ever Happen to Me' and 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine,' headlined a show at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas for four years beginning in 2002.

Knight will return to the Las Vegas strip on April 5 for a new show called 'A Mic and a Light,' a multi-month engagement she'll play at the newly renovated Tropicana Las Vegas.
