Who Got It??

Anika Rose VS. Vivica Fox
This gown looks better long......with that being said, Anika takes the cake......Vivica looks a horrid mess...and needs to find another dress to ruin...


Keisha VS. Brandy
This is a no-brainer....I absolutely love the dress and Keisha looks the best in it...

Sanaa VS. Tamara
I think I need help on this one!!

Kate Walsh VS. Solange
Solange rips the runway in this dress....I love the color on her and the style of her hair...she looks FABULOUS..

Melinda VS. Christina
This comparison was little difficult....both Melinda and Christina are wearing this dress....but I love the red flare in Melinda's top and shoes....Sorry Christina


Mariah VS. Naomi
Mariah takes the back seat to Ms. Campbell.....There's no comparison here....Naomi looks flawless in her dress as it compliments her body...not to mention the shoes...and is it me or does Mariah's dress look a little ashy??


Mary J. VS Kylie
Both ladies are working this dress, but I think Mary takes the cake....the shoes do it for me....

TINY VS. BOOTZ
I'm going to have to go with Bootz on this one.....I can't really see Tiny's shoes, but it doesn't matter, Bootz got Tiny beat....

Sanaa Lathan.....Boushy or Pushy??

Someone has definitely gone Hollywood....too fly to be polite, Ms. Lathan pushed Keisha Cole's sister "Deewana" out the way when exiting a night club....a situation that could have turned sour, luckily for Sanaa, didn't........a simple 'excuse me' would have been appropriate.

It would have been funny if little Ms. Cole would have snatched the weave off Sanaa's head....

Ms. Lathan obviously didn't watch any episodes from "The Way It is"

Real Housewives of Atlanta Reunion

Did anyone see the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion on Bravo???

Let's talk about it......

I don't like how everyone ganged up on Kim....NeNe knows she was wrong for making up that song about Kim, especially when Kim was her ONLY REAL friend on the show.....
Secondly, I feel like the animosity was geared toward the wrong person....NeNe should have exploded on Sheree for her foolish acts and vindictive ways ......Also, Lisa should have been mad at Sheree for telling Kim about the song Ne Ne sang about her.

For some reason everyone seemed scared to tell Sheree about herself, but I was really hoping someone would check that trick.....Sheree is a clown....she's selfish, shallow and stubborn....she fills me with disgust, as I listen to her antics about people being jealous of her success .....all she did was marry and divorce an athlete.....CONGRATULATIONS on such an accomplishment.....trick please.....
Too bad she won't be cashing in on the 7 digits she wanted from her divorce settlement....apparently she lost the case and has appealed the ruling to the Supreme Court.....in the mean time Ms. Sheree was forced to sell her home and put her kids in public school....what a shame.....stop spending your money on extravagant parties and pay your bills boo......

Lisa was cool in the beginning of the show, but I began to dislike her after a while.......She was the biggest instigator....from wanting Ne Ne and Sheree to take a picture together, to telling Kim about the song NeNe sang about her...Kim was good for keeping the drama flowing.....When she threatened to flip Kim over the couch (on the reunion show) I wanted to jump through the TV screen...grab Kim's right hand, and smack the Lisa into the unemployment line.

Anyway I'm glad the show is over, although I don't think that's the last we'll hear or see from these ladies...there are rumors circulating that there will be a second season with the same group....nothing has been confirmed, so I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens...

Young Steff Featuring Maino

I'm so happy to see this young man step his game up......Young Steff dropped the single "Professional" early this year, off an unreleased album, and recently dropped the official video, featuring Maino last week. Hopefully this means we can expect an album from him in 2009....becaue I'm definitely looking forward to it...

Although the song is a little old, its still hot, and the video is even better....he reminds me of a cuter Mario, with a little O'marion flavor....check him out and show him some love.....

Florida Teen Commits Suicide on Webcam

Sad story of teen suicide......

"The family of a college student who killed himself live on the Internet say they’re horrified his life ended before a virtual audience, and infuriated that viewers of the live webcam or operators of the Web site that hosted it didn’t act sooner to save him.

Only after police arrived to find Abraham Biggs dead in his father’s bed did the Web feed stop Wednesday — 12 hours after the 19-year-old Broward College student first declared on a Web site that he hated himself and planned to die.

“It didn’t have to be,” said the victim’s sister, Rosalind Bigg. “They got hits, they got viewers, nothing happened for hours.”

Biggs announced his plans to kill himself over a Web site for bodybuilders, authorities said. He posted a link from there to Justin.tv, a site that allows users to broadcast live videos from their webcams. A computer user who claimed to have watched said that after swallowing some pills, Biggs went to sleep and appeared to be breathing for a few hours while others cracked jokes.

Some members of his virtual audience encouraged him to do it, others tried to talk him out of it, and some discussed whether he was taking a dose big enough to kill himself, said Wendy Crane, an investigator with the Broward County medical examiner’s office."

Suicide Note Below:

To Whom It May Concern

I am going to leave this for whoever stumbles across my bookmarks later on. I hate myself and I hate living. I think that if someone who knows me reads this they will know who I am. So I will leave this unsigned. I am an a–hole. I have let everyone down and I feel as though I will never change or never improve. I am in love with a girl and I know that I am not good enough for her.

I have come to believe that my life has all been meaningless. I keep trying and I keep failing. I have thought about and attempted suicide many times in the past. I used to think of my failure as some mystical way of telling me that I was really meant for something meaningful. The only thing I dread besides the pain, is the way my family will suffer. I do not want my mother or father to think that it was anything they did that lead me to kill myself. I never really had any plans of leaving a note. I thought that I would not be able to describe why I want to do this and I am right. There is no way to tell you or anyone else why I dread every new day. My father had such high expectations for me and tried to give me every opportunity to improve upon myself. I let him down. I think that I am a major disappointment to him. I have a job but I’m always broke and I am in college but barely, I show up to class but that’s about it.

I want my life to end. I am tired of f—ing up everything. I am tired of people always telling me that they do not like me. I am tired of trying to be decent. I hope that someone finds this post and I hope that my parents know that I f–ked up not them. It is my fault I screwed up my own life.

This hate rages full force towards me and only me. I have long forgiven those who’ve hurt me, but I have not and cannot come to terms with forgiving myself, and the things I’ve done to hurt those in my life. You have all touched my life in one way or another, especially those whom I call family.

I cannot tell you how sorry I am for ending my life the way I did. I hope that you can all find it in your heart to see it as a way for me not suffering anymore and that I am finally at rest with myself, for being at rest with my guilt that constantly ate at me for so long.

Please forgive me all for taking my life so early. I tried so hard to fight against this strong battle I have reached out for help so many times, and yet I believe, I was turned away because of the things I did, that it is a punishment. I am willing to take, for I know that being who I am has only brought myself and others pain.

I love you all and will forever live within the memories we created.

Forgive me

Love always and forever

As for my signatre I will leave you with a quote so that if anyone reads this they will know it’s me. “Can’t feel pain if your dead? Just Saying”

Bump It or Dump It!!

Jamie Foxx dropped a new single featuring Lil Wayne, titled "Number One." The beat is hot.... it's definitely a club banger....but other than that I think this is one of the weakest songs I've heard Jamie deliver.....this song shouldn't have made out of the studio..it sounds like a rough draft that someone took seriously......I must say I'm a little disappointed...

I understand T-pain made the synthesizer hot, but enough is enough.....Jamie should have jumped on the Pain's circus train a long time ago.......but anyway check out the new song and let me know what you think.


Raw Talent

Jazmine Sullivan is probably one my newest most favored artist.....this girl has undeniable raw talent....something that voice lessons can't teach......If you haven't checked out my "featured song of the week" section then hopefully you heard her latest single "Lions, Tigers & Bears?"

I absolutely love this song....from "Need You Bad" to "Bust Your Windows" to this new joint, Jazmine keeps it real hood. Her music speaks about real emotions, situations and things common people can relate to.....she is the real deal.....

From the beginning of her singing career Jazmine has been ripping the stage.....check out her first filmed performance on Apollo at age 11, singing "Accept What God Allows"......

Beyoncé's New Video

Beyoncé......excuse me.....Sasha hits Los Angles this past weekend to begin shooting the video for her latest single "Diva."Based on the few pictures I've seen the video looks HOT!!!!From the classic diva style apparel to the action pack explosives Beyoncé is definitely showing the fire side of her alter ego "Sasha" I absolutely love SASHA......she reminds me alot of my alter ego.....sexy, demanding, talented and absolutely FABULOUS.......

don't you just love Beyoncé?

Giving Thanks

Today, be blessed in the spirit of the Lord. Take a moment to reflect upon all the blessings you receive each and everyday......

Take a moment to think about how merciful GOD has been throughout your life....no matter what your current circumstances are, be thankful for the opportunity to live another day.....

Know that your presence here on earth is no accident, or coincidence. You have a purpose....whether or not you know what that purpose is, be thankful for another day to fulfill your destiny..

Its so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life that we forget to give thanks......to GOD and our loved ones whom are continuously there for us......through the good time and the bad....the ups and downs, be thankful to have SOMEONE to walk with you through life's journey.....remind them how special they are to you and how much you love them....

If you love the Lord and know how much He loves you, thank him by being a blessing to others....This holiday season give the gift of love.....not with material items, but with your time....spend time with your loved ones and seize the moment......because tomorrow is not promised....

I don't know about YOU but I couldn't have made without HIM!!!! If anyone knows what I'm talking about, can I get an AMEN!!!



Inspirational Quote:

"To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble."


Love strong, forgive easy and be blessed!!!

Hazardous Cosmetics

Today's word from the street informs us about the dangers of personal care products we use daily.

Recent studies conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), state that more than 750 personal care products sold in the US, violate cosmetic safety standards. A large majority of these products lack sufficient data and have never been tested for safety.

These products include: Dove facial cleansers, L'Oreal facial moisturizers/treatment, Suave body wash, Revlon lipstick and many more. Ingredients and chemicals used to make these products potentially cause, birth defects, cancer, infertility and many other severe illnesses. To protect yourself and your loved ones from these hazards, make sure you read the label. Avoid products that contain ingredients such as: Boric Acid, Hydrogen Peroxide, Catalase, Toleune, and many others.

Find out if the products you're using contain hazardous chemicals. Click here for a "skin deep" diagnostic, where you can type in the name of any product and get information on its ingredients and level of toxicity.

Beyoncé - "Ego"

NEW SH!T......Beyoncé drops her second single titled "Ego"......hot track off the Sasha Fierce album...This song is more like what I expect to hear from Beyoncé...or should I say Sasha....I'm beginning to think I like Sasha more than Beyoncé.......and based on recent photos:
Sasha looks like she has more fun......

But anyway, check out the new track and let me know what you think....Don't forget where you heard it first!!!

The bags are absolutely adorable......and creative......

For more information about personalizing your next handbag, visit Chilli's website at http://www.bagsbychilli.com/index.html......instead of supporting Ed Hardy, Coach, or your favorite fashion designer....support your girl Chilli and put a few dollars in her pocket.....we all know she needs it.....

Kelly's New Man

Word on the street is that Ms. Kelly Rowland is dating billionaire Richard Branson, owner of Virgin Airlines......

By the looks of recent photos I'm afraid this rumor may be true.Based on the snug holding of the hands, and the firm grip around Kelly's waist, Mr. Branson looks like he's making a pretty clear statement....."this is my girl"......

I must say that I'm disappointed in her selection of men....not only is he NOT a brotha...he's old.....

I guess it doesn't matter as long as those duckets are rolling in and Kelly has a round trip plane ticket to any island....anyone need the hook up??...

Even with all that, it still isn't worth the shame, and I'm sure Kelly feels a little embarrassed....and so she should......

Perhaps Kelly had enough of Negros and wanted to spice up her life a little....go ahead Kelly I ain't mad....but you still played yourself.......

Barack Obama Elected 44th U.S. President

Obama's historic win proves that America is indeed ready for change. Change that our founding fathers and civil rights leaders died for. Change that brings hope to minorities, the economy and racial barriers. Its been a long time coming that many hoped for change in America, but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine this.
A crushing win of 349 electoral votes over McCain's 147, Obama secured his victory Tuesday, November 4. Sweeping at least seven states that Bush won in 2004, including Florida, Virginia and Ohio, Obama reshaped the political map. This monumental shift demonstrates the need for change. The American people spoke loud and clear, "Yes We Can" and we DID!!!!!!

United with brothers and sisters from all cultural backgrounds WE fulfilled a prophesy. A dream that Martin Luther King Jr. once had....a legacy that we will never forget. Anything is possible where there's opportunity and with God, hard work and endurance, dreams really do come true.....

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Classic Chick

I love Beyoncé....everything about her......from the songs she writes/borrows, the heart and soul behind her beautiful voice to the dance moves and attitude of Sasha....she is my idol....



Gracing the cover of Gotham Magazine...Beyoncé shows that she can do all......act, dance, model and sing....she is a true performer......


T-Pain's a Genius

T-pain's new album is HOT......whether you're a T-pain fan or not, you're going to love his new joint that's expected to drop soon.....

Here's a little taste of what you can look forward to........T-Pain's next single featuring Chris Breezy, "Freeze" is definitely a club banger......I swear if you don't bounce your shoulders while listening to this song...then you have no soul.....

Anyway....check out the behind the scene clips.....



I had to update the song of week section but didn't want to delete T-pain's video for "Chopped and Skrewed." I love this song....the video is a little weird but that's what I expect from T-Pain.......

Pon De Replay........

Someone Finally Got a Hair Cut.....

Kiss Kiss

Nick Cannon and wifey Mariah put on for Halloween.....and I'm not just talking about costumes...

The two hosted a Halloween bash in the New York this past weekend and boy did they put on a show. Dressed in matching costumes the two arrived in a fire truck and unleashed the first costume of the evening..........fireman & woman!!


Cute.....but it doesn't stop there...



For all the haters that didn't enjoy the fireman costumes, the Cannons figured perhaps they could chew on some milk & cookies ??





So Nick & Mariah served up some chocolate chips cookies and skim milk.....gotta love it.....

I love Mariah's costume, it appears to be custom made, and only Nick can pull off wearing a big carton of milk.....just adorable.

But there's more......

If you didn't think the two were truly in love, then hopefully these pictures will change your mind....

For some reason the Cannons couldn't keep their lips to themselves...

KISS

KISS
KISS
At least we know somebody got some milk and cookies that night!!!!!
