The Being Mary Jane star stopped by "E! News" last night to promote the July 2 premiere of the BET show and to dish on working with E! News host Terrence J on TLAM 2.  Gabrielle joked that she’s been friends with TJ since he first got in the business and that he loves to take his shirt off and show off his pecs!  We can tell…

Also, she talked about her relationship with Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade, saying he’s the fashionista between the two of them (and that Rachel Zoe is her stylist!).  She also dished on the fun they had after the Miami Heat beat the Spurs and that she’ll be traveling to China with him while he works on his shoe collection.  The interview was the first time we’ve heard Gabby speak about Dwyane since those breakup rumors….which we knew were false.
