Mac Miller Makes a Cameo 'Single Ladies' New VH1 Show

In the episode, one of the stars of the show will attempt to aid Mac, who is signed to indie label Rostrum Records, in getting signed to a major label. While the 19-year-old rapper admitted that he was initially a bit camera-shy, he eventually was able to settle into the role because he was really only playing himself. "I was a little nervous doing the whole acting thing," he told XXL. "[But] since I'm playing myself it wasn't really hard; I just did what I would do in every situation."






'Single Ladies' is scheduled to premiere on VH1 in July, and will also reportedly feature guest appearances by several other MCs. Mac Miller is currently hard at work on his sixth mixtape, 'Best Day Ever,' due March 11.

“Single Ladies” is a comedy drama about Val (Stacey Dash), Keisha (LisaRaye McCoy), and April (Charity Shea), three best friends with different philosophies on sex and relationships. Val is an ambitious aspiring fashion mogul who wants to find a true partner. Keisha is a former video dancer just looking for a rich man to keep her in style. April has supposedly found the perfect man and the perfect marriage. “Single Ladies” is a modern, sexy series set in the world of Atlanta fashion, music, and celebrity that will constantly explore which woman has the right approach to relationships.






Casting folks will also have their eyes peeled for folks who might be suitable for background roles on other shows. That’s an open casting call for “all looks” from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. We can’t say which shows, exactly, but can tell you that one is a legal drama and the other is about football. We can also tell you that Marinella has done casting for “Drop Dead Diva” and “Necessary Roughness.” You figure it out!

Rapper Eve on INK magazine + Featured on VH1 Single Ladies Airing in 2011

In the issue, Eve revealed that her mother hated her signature claw print tattoos, which have become one of Eve's trademarks.

"My mom said it was the tackiest thing she'd ever seen," Eve revealed. "Yet years later it was her mom who insisted she not remove them. Hey, you don't mess with your trademark, right?"

Eve also revealed that she is in the process of shedding her bad girl image with high-profile appearances on television series like Glee and the upcoming VH1 scripted reality show, Single Ladies.

"I hate it when people say, The old Eve, the old Eve. No! I can't pretend to be that girl anymore," Eve said. "If I did people would see that and be like, Why is she trying to be that same person?"




The new issue of Inked will hit stores on November 30th.

Queen Latifah Talks About Her VH1 Scripted Series " Single Ladies"

We chatted with Latifah about her news, which includes producing a show on VH1 called Single Ladies.

Debuting in July 2011, it stars Stacey Dash and Lisa Raye McCoy as bachelorettes looking for love. (In real life, QL doesn't have such romantic problems -- she's rumored to be happily dating trainer to the stars Jeanette Jenkins).

Tell us about the show.

It's a concept my partner Shakim [Compere] and I came up with -- VH1's first scripted television show. It's something a lot of women and men can relate to right now.

What is the best advice you can give to all the single ladies out there?

Stay true to yourself.

How do you like being behind the camera?

I love it. My partner and I have a production company and a full functioning studio in Miami.

We always have had a real hand in creating stories and scripts and characters in all the projects I've been in, so it was time to take it to another level.

What have been your most memorable roles?

All are pretty special for different reasons, but I would say either my role in Life Support [a drama based on Andrea Williams, a real-life HIV-positive woman who devotes her life to helping others] because she was so courageous, or Chicago. Mama Morton was such a fantastic, over the top character.

Do you have a dream costar? Director?

Yes, I'd love to do a movie with Sandra Bullock and Quentin Tarantino.

What do you think of all the rappers turned actors? Do you think you led the charge?

I don't think any one thing of one group of people. We're all individuals, but I'm proud that so many of my peers are so talented. And I do think of myself as somewhat of a pioneer, but it was a natural progression for me.
