New York Fashion Week got a boost of star power last night when LeBron James and Ralph Lauren teamed up on behalf of the LeBron James Family Foundation.

Stars like music mogul Jay-Z, tennis star Serena Williams, Vogue editor Anna Wintour, rapper Q-Tip and R&B songstress Cassie gathered at Ralph’s flagship store on Manhattan’s Upper East Side where they sipped champagne, nibbled on lobster salad.

LeBron, looking debonaire in a three-piece suit, was joined by longtime girlfriend Savannah Brinson, who dazzled in a form-fitting black sheath dress dotted with crystals. Both in Ralph Lauren, of course.

All celeb attendees forked over $1000 for a limited-edition Ralph Lauren Purple Label basketballs personally signed by the Cleveland Cavaliers star himself.

Vibe is celebrating its 15th Anniversary Juice issue with Jay-Z.

Inside the September issue, the 38-year-old rap mogul talks about his two biggest loves — Beyonce and Barack Obama.

Jay on why he won’t talk about his wedding or marriage to Beyonce: “I just think it’s really a part of your life that you gotta keep to yourself. You have to have something sacred to you and the people around you. I shared so much of my life… I should have something to hold on to.”

Jay on Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama: “What [Obama] represents is, we as a people are part of the American Dream. We were left out of the dream at a certain point. Now the dream is, you can be anything – and it’s not cliché.”

Festival-goers had to wait until nearly 11 PM Sunday night to witness British mega-stars Coldplay to take the stage at the 2008 Pemberton Music Festival in British Columbia yesterday.

The eager masses threatened to knock over fences and storm restricted areas to get closer to what many consider the biggest band in the world.

For his part, frontman Chris Martin exhibited more than his typical enthusiasm and what seemed like genuine appreciation that people came to the remote festival and stuck around long enough to hear his band.

Coldplay was preceded by a hot performance by Jay-Z. For just over an hour, the hip hop star had the place in a tizzy. Some female fans showed their appreciation by flashing the crowd on the giant video screens – to great approval.

No word on whether the Jiggaman’s missus Beyonce was one of the women gone wild.


RIHANNA IN NIGERIA, ERIA, ERIA, EH, EH, EH

As part of the star-studded event, Riri kicked of the show with her first big hit, Pon de Replay, before driving fans crazy as she cranked out fan pleasers like Shut Up and Drive and, of course, Umbrella.

After that, it was the Jiggaman’s turn to take the stage. After blasting off hit after hit, the better half of Bey-Z concluded his set with a solo version of his duet with wife Beyonce, Crazy in Love.

Last night: Jay-Z caught an out-of-bounds ball at the NBA Eastern Conference semifinals game in Boston between the Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Beyonce, of course, was right next to him.

No wedding rings were in sight.

Booty-shaking songstress Beyonce rubs elbows with the likes of John Mayer during the Sony/BMG Grammy after party at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Beverly Hills on Sunday.

The Grammy nominee and performer looked darling in an gorgeous yellow gown with a plunging back and accessorized with just enough bling to remind everyone that it’s good to be Beyonce.

The wardrobe-changing diva, who lost out to Amy Winehouse for Record of the Year, stayed past 1 AM, laughing perched atop a booth seat, sipping a glass of bubbly next to her former Destiny’s Child bandmate Michelle Williams, with her beau Jay-Z a few feet away.

Beyonce was typically gracious when asked about Winos Grammy wins and her performance via satellite: “I thought she was wonderful. It was a great year for her.”
