Brandy made her big debut on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” this week on the show’s 11th season
But “don’t believe the hype” Brandy says. This dancing thing is hard work as it’s all new to her! The 31–year-old entertainer told PEOPLE:
“I’m freaking out. Dance has never been one of my strongest points. [If] you don’t have the dance talent, you have like five people behind you making you look good. So don’t believe the hype. This is all new for me.”
Instead of back-up dancers though, Brandy is relying on her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who she says really helps her to stay on track.
“He’s hot so that helps! What’s so crazy is that Maks was born on the same day as my brother [Ray J] . . . and I’m born on the same day as his mother. So I kind of feel like we were meant to be partners and I’m meant to do this show.”
Catch Brandy next Monday (Sep 27) on Dancing with the Stars when it airs on ABC at 8/7c and in case you missed it, check out her performance from this week below!



The remaining cast includes: former NBA player/actor Rick Fox, Kyle Massey (“That’s So Raven”), Florence Henderson (“The Brady Bunch”), comedian Margaret Cho (“Drop Dead Diva”), David Hasselhoff, Jennifer Grey (Dirty Dancing), Michael Bolton, NFLer Kurt Warner, Audrina Patridge (“The Hills”), Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino (“Jersey Shore”), and Bristol Palin. Good luck to Brandy!
Well what on earth do we have here??? Has Paris
R&B singers (and “besties”) Kelly Rowland and Brandy hung out together Wednesday night (Aug 18) in Los Angeles and had dinner at celebrity hotspot Katsuya. And as the two were enjoying their meal, Paris Hilton spotted them and snapped a few pics of herself and Brandy before making a “grand exit” out of the restaurant hand-in-hand with the singer, who she later tweeted about: “Ran in to Brandy at Katsuya. She is such a sweet girl :)”
However we hear that this “meeting” was staged somewhat, because Paris is said to have asked Brandy & Kelly to leave the Japanese restaurant at the same time as her so that the paparazzi wouldn’t notice her with a mystery man. But whatever the case may be, you have to admit, Kelly

An international DJ -- who claims he's huge in Scandinavia -- is suing Brandy (the singer) for allegedly backing out of a deal to write and sing 32 bars worth of music ... after she accepted a check for $10,000.

The DJ behind the suit is Marc Mysterio -- who did a pretty cool remix of that "One More Time" song last year ... if you're into that sorta thing.
In a lawsuit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, Mysterio -- who reinforces the fact that he's popular in "worldwide markets" including France, the UK, Scandinavia, Italy and Benelux -- claims Brandy took the payment back in July ... but never came through with the music.
Now, Mysterio claims he's lost more than $25,000 as a result of Brandy's non-actions.
Attempts to reach Brandy for comment were unsuccessful.
