The "Arrangement": Starring RHOA\'s Kim Zolciak, Big Poppa, and Big Poppa\'s Wife
I've always been cut and dry about my feelings about married people having affairs. If infidelity is a major violation of a couples' marital rules, then cheating is wrong and the blame is placed solely on the cheater. Notice I said ...
Music on Repeat (Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, James Ingram)
What songs/videos can't I get enough of this week? One is a bizarre techno video, another is a new city anthem, and the last is straight old school. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance Can't decide which I love more: the actual song or the visually stu...
No Longer a Joke: Foxx/Lawrence Parody Becoming a Movie
When the hilarious trailer for "Skank Robbers" played during the BET Music Awards this year, it left viewers on the floor in tears. However, people were confused as to whether not they were watching an extremely well put together skit...
Oscar-bound "Precious" Pulls In a Staggering $100,000 Per Theatre
In hindsight, is this really a surprise? Directed by Lee Daniels ("Monster's Ball"), "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire", previously received critical acclaim after winning the Audience award at Sundance and r...
Rihanna 20/20 Interview: Out of the mouths of babes...
Yeah, Rihanna and Chris Brown are young in relative terms, but I am not actually talking about them. If you watch her 20/20 interview, there were a few youtube clips from some young people who were angry with Rihanna because they fel...
Rihanna: "My selfish decision for love could result in some young girl\'s death."
I guess Rihanna has learned that moral responsibility does (or SHOULD) come with stardom. Celebrities, or any other person for that matter, should not be held to a Jesus-standard of perfection. However, with the amount of fam...
Crablegs, Margaritas, and MJ
Some good drinks, a good meal, and a Michael Jackson concert on multiple big screens. That's what it took to bring me to the brink of tears. Aside from becoming misty-eyed while hearing Paris speak at the funeral, this was the first time I r...
Envy, Thy Name Is Iman.
Even though I have responded the Iman "insert-foot-in-mouth" extravaganza on Twitter (reason #3 that I have not updated my blog lately) and on blacksnob.com, I need to address this in depth. In full disclosure, I must state that I am an Obam...
Diddy Comes To Lil Kim's Defense
For the most part, I have pretty good feelings about Diddy. Of course, the Diddy/Kim Porter drama often has me saying WTF? However, if the latest round of blind items/rumors are true (Diddy & Jamie Foxx with the VIP "brown-paper bag test" in...

Monday Randomness (Foxy Brown, Katt Williams, Jennifer Aniston)
WTH is Foxy Brown? Where is Foxy Brown and what is she doing? Truth be told, I was huge fan of her lyrical style although her personal style often left much to be desired. (Please say no to fuscia lipstick and ridiculously and unnecessaril...
The Fam, Bowling, and Ronnie DeVoe
Actually, we couldn't decided where we were going to go on Saturday night. I wanted to go to Luckie Lounge and my sister wanted to go the Apollo...and clash of the siblings began. My aunt (who is only a year older than me) sometimes acts as the go...
Girl, You Gotta a Ten-Piece Please Don't Be Stingy!
Why, why, why? Why do I love this cheesy McDonald's commercial? It's way over the top with a soap opera feel. I can't stop watching it on youtube! Why can't you share your love with me! I can't help myself... Now the AT&T commercial with the he...
Good Lawd!!! Obama in Hawaii, Sexy is as Sexy Does!!
Is it disrespectful to ogle the President Elect? Ok, he has big ears and he's a little skinny (look at the arms), but DAMN, he's one sexy, good-looking man. Ok, I have closed my mouth and stopped licking my lips... I'm apologizing in advance to t...
Love on a Tuesday Morning (Diana Ross & Lionel Richie, Luther Vandross, Mariah Carey, LeVert, Sade, Beyonce)
As mentioned in my ode to Melody and Claudaniel, I am absolutely and unapologetically enamored with love and romance...joyfully immersed in the good times and upside and accepting of the downside. One way to appreciate all that is love is to live an...
