KUDOS MILEY CYRUS

Honestly I think everyone who is bashing and down talking  Miley Cyrus's MTV VMAs  performance are being over the top and dramatic. Gosh let her live and do what she want. Disney is in her past and she does not have to be the perfect role model if she does not want to.

I do not think there was anything wrong with the Miley Cyrus performance. Honestly we have seen performances that were way more raunchier than what Miley did. I mean I saw this coming and you all should have seen it coming also. Have you not see Miley's video for "CANT STOP" she's acting a fool in her video, therefore I would expect her to act outrageous in a live performance of "Cant Stop" And although much of America thought Miley's performance was horrible SHE'S BEING CAREFREE and having fun. That's what life is all about these days we are carefree and we do what we want. As long as no one is not being harm I don/t see anything wrong with what people do.

Okay lets talk about the way Miley was dancing on Robin Thicke. He knew what was up once she stepped out of that bear on stage. He posted himself up being Miley Cyrus so she could dance on him.  Everyone knew coming into the VMAs Sunday night that Miley Cyrus was going to do some type of twerking. The video for Robin Thick's song "Blurred Lines" is a bit on the sexy side, there are females walking around NAKED in his song. Therefore Miley parading around the stage half naked also was not an issue with me. I was not shocked by this>>>> check Robin's video below. 

AMERICA needs to realize that Miley Cyrus is a GROWN WOMAN she can do whatever she wants. She is 20 and no longer a teenager therefore she's responsible for her own decisions and whatever image she portrays. I wish some American's would stop acting like they live the perfect life and stop passing judgment upon Miley. I'm sure she doesn't care one bit anyways. KUDOS to you Miley for being the talk of the night. You obviously did something right. Keep doing you and having fun. And I also as a black female do not feel as if Miley demoralize the image of the black woman. Some people need to chill out with the foolish talk

Lee Daniel's The Butler #MovieReview

Today (August 23, 2013) I went and saw Lee Daniel's newest movie THE BUTLER. Okay before someone passes judgment upon me let me give you gals and guys my excuse for being an entire week late. I know the movie premiered August 16, 2013 but I could not go see the movie and support premiere weekend due to the fact that I was in the field doing Army training which consisted of me not going home at night and sleeping on a cot in a tent.

I went and saw the Butler at noon today and I went in thinking the theatre was going to be empty but I walked in and it was filled with elderly people . Hmmmm so that's what the old people do during the week day on a friday *I'm joking*

I enjoyed the movie, simply because it tells our history. The history of America that is not so great. The history that some people like to pretend does not exist. The history that made us who we are today. The history that still effects living people today.

The Black Domestic worker plays a vital role in American history. The Butler to me is what THE HELP was to women. It showed black men and women serving white people and the struggles our people endured while they were servants. The Butler and the maid go hand in hand and Lee Daniels was able to portray how they are similar. As a domestic worker you had to look those who you were serving in the eye to see what they wanted and needed. You were there to please and to satisfy those you were working for.

The Butler had me in tears from the beginning of 1926 to the end in 2008 . Seeing Cecil Gaine's father gunned down in the cotton field broke my heart. No one should see their parents killed especially as a young child. I enjoyed and hated seeing how my people fought and struggled so I can have the rights that I have today. The movie was definitely informative and much can be learned from it. This movie was filled with RAW emotions that I felt reaching out at me through the theatre screen. Seeing Oprah interact with Forest Whitaker was interesting and it showed the ups and downs that are endured within a relationship. It DEFINITELY was weird seeing Terrence Howard all over OPRAH. I literally wanted to cover my eyes on that part. But Terrence is in his 40s and Oprah is pushing 60 so I guess isn't too bad.

Seeing the growth and journey of Cecil's son Louis shows us how the Black Community changed with each decade. From fighting for equal rights, to the right to vote, to the Black panther movement, to the movement in South Africa with Mandela. We got to see just how much America changed throughout the years.  Also One of my favorite models from cycle 3 of America's Next Top Model Yaya Dacosta played the female friend of Louis and she did a great job, and as you can see Ms. Yaya is with child. Congrats girl.

The end of the movie showed the election of Barack Obama and my sensitive self actually cried once again as if it was November 4, 2008 all over again. I wish President Obama would have been in the movie to actually greet Cecil at the end.

Overall I HIGHLY recommend that everyone go and see this movie you might learn a thing or two from it. I foresee Academy Award (Oscar) nominations. Kudos to the cast and director.

Picture of baby NorthWest revealed

I would FIRST like to say that in no way possible am I a Kim Kardashian fan. She's irrelevant to me, her significant other KANYE WEST is someone who I have a little bit more respect for and that's the only reason why Im writing this entry. I know yall have been wondering what KK's and Kanye's baby girl NORTH WEST looks like. Well here she is

I will say that they have a beautiful baby girl and she has her mom's eyes and Kanye's chubby cheeks. I wish you well baby North and please do not be as scandalous as your dear mother, okay I'm done wasting my time on anything KK related I'm just informing my followers.

Beyonce shakes up 2013 ( rocks a short hair do)

The Queen Bey has made a recent change to her look and like always everyone has something to say both negative and positive. 

I personally like the new look on Beyonce, and I don't know why everyone is so shocked, we saw her with short hair in Cadillac Records when she portrayed the late Etta James and even after that filming she rocked that short look for a while. 

Black women are known for changing up their look, I mean hey that's what we do. As always people feel the need to critique  bey and what she chooses to do with HER hair. The haters are definitely out bringing the negative energy, Check out some of the comments 

I personally love the look, it's something new different and fresh. Her natural hair was long before this but black people feel the need to be so negative and say she didn't have any hair. ( That's one thing you don't do to a black girl, and that's call her bald headed) 

Beyonce's stylist Kim Kimble sets the rumors straight about bey's real hair

Beyonce's roots are black in the picture so it looks like she cut her real hair. I'm interested in seeing what she's going to do for the rest of her tour. She's known for flipping her hair, a couple hundred times while performing so this will definitely add a twist to things.  I want to see Beyonce set it off and perform with her short new do. KUDOS Beyonce for keeping us on our toes. Keep doing you girl 

                            Stay Fierce & Fabulous

Save Our Sons

The cover of Ebony magazine will have 4 covers in honor of TRAYVON MARTIN. America is not where it should be and it took a loss of a teenage boy for us to realize this. We have not overcome totally , therefore continue to work hard and bring equality to everyone in America
