New York City cops have busted Bobby Shmurda for the second time in less than four months. As we previously reported, the "Hot Nigga" hit maker was arrested for felony gun possession back in June.

TMZ reports that Bobby was picked up again this week in his Brooklyn neighborhood, after cops spotted him smoking weed in a parked car along with two friends.

After getting out of jail Bobby released a video letting the cops know he's not at all worried about them stopping his grind.

"Fuck outta here, I just came home from the bookings," Bobby said. "Bum ass 67th [precinct] cops tried to lock me up. Niggas took my car, credit cards, everything. Tried to take my jewelry, but it ain't nothing. I make about 40 bands a week. Y'all niggas will never stop me, can't stop me."

Kelly Rowland puts the beauty of motherhood on fully display as she poses nude for Elle. The singer will be giving birth to her first child, a son, very soon and is proud of her body. In addition to the photo shoot with Lance Gross, Kelly talks with Elle's Jessica C. Andrews about staying fit while pregnant, her beauty regimen, her career, marriage, rumors that she'll portray Donna Summer in a biopic and much more.

Congratulations on your first child! What are you looking forward to the most about motherhood?

I can't wait until he gets here. I just have a couple more weeks. I'm excited to bring a child into the world, and sharing that experience with my husband is probably the most beautiful part.

You've become quite a role model for staying fit during pregnancy. What tips would you give for other mothers who want to stay healthy and in shape while pregnant? Everybody always tells you to go crazy with food, and you can eat whatever you want. It's fine to have your cravings but I wanted an easier delivery. All the women that I've talked to, that have worked out, have such an easy and speedy delivery. Exercise really helps that. And I like being able to have peaceful sleep at night, though there's no such thing as that now in the last trimester [laughs]. To be honest, I did modify my exercise routine a bit by just listening to my body. I would tell my trainer [Jeanette Jenkins] "This move doesn't feel right," and we'd modify it. I still walk two miles everyday. I still work out. It's important to me.

Some pregnant women get flack for nude photos. Why was it important to you to include those in the shoot?

I don't know why they would get flack. It's really—I won't say amazing—it'sGodmazing [laughs] watching your body carry a human. I took a birthing class and I was amazed by all the things this woman was saying to me about birthing and what the body does naturally. Why wouldn't you want to celebrate that? The body should be celebrated.

To read the full interview head over to Elle.  In the meantime check out Kelly's wonderful photos.

Raven-Symone appeared Sunday, October 5, on Oprah Winfrey's show, Where Are They Now? The former Cosby Show and That's So Raven star discussed several topics, including her relationship with a female partner.

"I don't want to be labeled gay," she told Oprah. "I want to be labeled a human who loves humans"

The actress went on to add that she is not African American, "I'm tired of being labeled. I'm an American, not an African American. I'm an American."

That statement caught Oprah off guard

"Oh girl, don't start this Twitter on fire," the host replied. "What? Oh Lord. what did you just say?"

"I don't know where my roots go to," Raven explained. "I don't know how far back they go. I can't go on...I don't know how far back and I don't know what country in Africa I'm from. But I do know that my roots are in Louisiana. I'm an American and that's a colorless person."

"You're going to get a lot of flack for saying you're not African American, you know that right?" Oprah asked.

"I don't label myself," Raven continued. "What I mean by that is I'm an American. That's what I really mean. I have darker skin. I have a nice interesting grade of hair. I connect with Caucasian. I connect with Asian. I connect with Black. I connect with Indian. I connect with each culture."
