Keri Hilson To Shoot New Video For New Single

Keri Hilson unleashed her inner animal last night at Paper magazine’s 2011 Beautiful People Party. The sexy singer, who performed during the Hollywood event, hit the red carpet in an ’80s-inspired outfit, wearing a leopard-print jacket over a bra, tight pants, and a red belt tied around her waist.

The songstress is gearing up to film the video for her Stargate-produced single “Lose Control” with Nelly off her sophomore album No Boys Allowed. Miss Keri will reteam with director Colin Tilley, who previously helmed the visuals for “One Night Stand” featuring Chris Brown and “In the Air,” her collaboration with U.K. rapper Chipmunk.

Sara Stokes Of "Making The Band" Involved In Domestic Dispute

According to TMZ, Sara from Making The Band and her hubby went at it again over the weekend. Except this time, he’s the one who ended up in cuffs.

Sara Stokes from “Making the Band 2″ was allegedly choked and beaten by her husband Tony, who was thrown in jail after the dispute … TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Sara tell us, it all went down last weekend at a friend’s house in Georgia — Tony Stokes accused Sara of being with another man … and then allegedly choked and hit her.

According to law enforcement, Tony was arrested for simple battery — and released the next day on $2,000 bail.

Tony’s taking it all in stride … telling us, “Everybody speculates and blows things out of proportion. It’s a crazy kind of life. We’re dysfunctional. We need our own TV show. I love my wife.”

This isn’t the couple’s first alleged domestic incident — back in 2009, Sara was accused of stabbing Tony after an argument went nuclear.

“We’re dysfunctional?” We’re gonna need someone in this situation to love themselves enough to walk away. SMH.
