Jennifer Hudson gets a #WalkOfFame HollyWood Star

Congratulations to the fabulous Jennifer Hudson, she has done something that many successful celebrities wish they could do, and that is be awarded a star on the HollyWood Walk of Fame






We first met Jennifer Hudson in 2004 where she was a contestant on the third season of American Idol and ended up finising seventh. She was in the season that Fantasia Barrino won. Hard to believe that Jennifer Hudson actually finished 7th and she's the one who now has her own star on the HollyWood Walk of Fame. That just goes to show, that it does not matter what place you finish in, what matters is how you finish.




Jennifer Hudson has earned her star and she did so by winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, A Golden Globe Award, an NAACP Image Award, a BAFTA Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for her role as "Effie White" in the the movies DreamGirls (2006)
She also has won a Grammy for her debut album entitle "Jennifer Hudson"
Jennifer is more than deserving of such an honor and I am so happy for such a strong woman who has endured so much pain, but chooses to continue smiling and sharing her gift with the world.

Congratulations JENNIFER HUDSON, you rock girl, and you inspire so many young women to go out there follow their dreams and do great things. Thank you for sharing your gift and choosing to be a positive role model.

Veterans Day 2013

Today we celebrate Veterans Day of the year 2013. I would like to give thanks to all the veterans. Thank you to all that have served and those who are currently serving.  Few people know your struggle and what you deal with, and the pain that you go through. 




Being a service member is not all about Honor and Glory. These men and women, deal with long days and long nights. They spend many days, weeks, and months away from their family. Some service members have missed huge chunks of their children lives. For those service members that are single, they deal with adjusting to living in a new area without any family. But through it all service members continuing moving forward and doing great things. 




Although we continue to live our lives do not forget those service member who have given their lives in the longest war that our nation has been a part of. As of November 7, 2013 there has been a total of 3,395 coalition deaths in Afghanistan and a total of 4,486 American troops were killed in IRAQ from 2003 to 2012. Only 1 percent of the American population are a member of the military and I am apart of that 1 percent.











Remember FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.

The History of TWERKING


With every generation comes a new style of dancing and currently that style of dancing is TWERKING. Many people see this style of dancing as raunchy or derogativ






Post by RAw Talent.











#freetwerkteam By D'Neise Robinson, Marje Kilpatrick & Nya McDowell (poets of RAW Talent & the 2013 Bay Area slam team) Hello boys and girls Today were going to talk about twerking Do you know how to twerk? I bet you do But for those who lack these skills First, assume the sumo position Now arch your back like a banana Gotta do your spirit fingers Place your palms on your knees (Stop with the spirit fingers) Ok now we'll begin the butterfly Bounce bounce bounce Then you go into the Bounce a Biggity bounce a biggity Slow it down, slow it down Ok lets put it all together Now that you've learned the moves Lets talk about the word Twerk Twerk team! Urban Dictionary defines "Twerking" as "the act of moving/shaking ones Ass/buns/bottom/buttocks/bum-bum in a circular, Up-and-down, and side-to-side motion. Basically a slutty dance. Derived from strip clubs." No, Basically Fuck Urban Dictionary Twerking traces back to patterned Footsteps on African soil Drums rimmed with lamb skin Forming Africa in the arches of their backs Breaking waves in the shore of Their thighs This black dance looked At as sacrilege instead of art They applaud Miley Cyrus for poping her ass on Youtube And glorify the sensual dances of Tango and Salsa But news reporters look at us like Nothing but monkeys in heat Grinding feverishly in a crowded room It's more than fucking with clothes on C’est La danse du fessier This is the dance of the behind The way it bounces beneath slither snake curves Caressing males phallus Grinding with the ass My foremothers granted me Pleasure is our power This dance This movement Mutilates these rusted locks around our vulvas No more suppression perspiring from our walls Our sexuality will not to be restrained Our cunt is more then cave for your orgasm Our pussy is pious Its only natural that the spirits of my sex roam free Like birds soaring over Yoruba ceremonies Like tribal cloth swaying with the forcing of hips Like limbs gracing mother natures breath This is the origin of twerking An ode to Mapouka in Dabou Gouyad in Haiti El Mapale in Colombia The vacunao in Cuba The dutty wine in Jamaica The Niiko in Somalia The Malaya of the Afro-Arab communities in Oman, C'est la danse du fessier This is the dance of the behind There is no shame In the desires I express through twerk The natural rhythm of life Begins inside me You only cherish our thickness When you can have us how you want us- On a pole being thrown your money In a music video clapping ass for your fame On a corner selling pussy for your profit But when we do it for ourselves Is when you fear us most The way we grind and tease men While they grab hungrily at our birthing hips Now you stand helpless to this ass In defense You call us ratchet, Call us vulgar Loose Whore Hoe Wretch Why must sex be a scarlet letter upon our chest? We know what we are We are god in the flesh A body stretched Across oceans and continents We are brown We are thick Middle passage in our waist History in our hips We twerk to remember We twerk to resist

MISS UNIVERSE 2013 (costume traditions)

Being that America is a very diverse country, that can bring about some difficulties for our country when we are trying to do things such as represent the culture of America within a beauty pageant. Every year at the Miss Universe pageant they have the PARADE OF NATIONAL COSTUMES. Each girl wheres a costumes that portrays the culture of her specific country. If I was in this pageant representing MISS USA I have no idea what my costume would be. Our culture is made up of too may other cultures that at sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming at times. This year Miss USA Erin Brady decided she would represent her country by dressing in some red white and blue transformers looking ensemble, that I myself am not a fan of.





I have no idea what that is suppose to be, but overall it is just hideous. On instagram Miss USA wrote that her costume is " Embracing powerful women in a transforming country, that's made up of so much" That's what MISS USA means to me."


Okay Erin nice try at trying to stand for feminism and be patriotic at the same time, but overall girl you FAILED in this area. The other women from the other countries DOMINATED in this area. The costume that was suppose to represent the USA does not scream America to me, it screams a pile a mess and over the top, check out the fabulous costumes of the other countries below.

Tyson Beckford poses with TRANSGENDERED model








Looks like Tyson Beckford has taken his career to another level. He recently did a photo spread for OOB Magazine's Tropical Surrealism spread where he shares the camera with Transgendered model Ines Rau.






Ines is a 24 year old model NYC based model who is originally from France. This exotic beauty is of North African decent and looks so much like a female it is scary. Ines was born a male and over the years have transformed himself into a female and a mighty beautiful one I might add. I love how Tyson was able to do such a shoot and be totally comfortable with it. This shoot shows that there are no boundaries when it comes the modeling industry. Check out the photos below WARNING things might heat up.
