The ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon Was Magic!
If I could have written this in glitter font, I would have. And you know how I feel about glitter (it reminds me of MySpace and BlackPlanet days of yore where our text shouted out at everyone). But I just feel all glittery and shiny about the ESSENCE Black Women …

Who’s Coming With Me to Keith Sweat’s Cruise? NOBODDDYYY
It’s apparently 1996 because the Patron Saint of Begging For Love, Keith Sweat, is having a cruise in April. And it’s for the “Grown and Sexy.” Oh. Someone somewhere saw this flyer and thought that this would be the ideal vacation for them to take with the person they call their “beau.” …
Vanity Fair’s Hollywood Issue Cover is Full of FINE (and Color)!
Vanity Fair’s Hollywood Issue is dropping into newsstands on February 11 and they’ve outdone themselves with an absolutely FABULOUS tri-fold cover. They stepped away from their historically monochromatic look by including some of Hollywood’s FINEST actors of color. And I am here to appreciate it. It features Lupita Nyong’o, Chiwetel …
Pharrell’s GRAMMYs Hat Lived So We Could Roast It
Pharrell came to the 2014 GRAMMYs in a hat that looked awesomely ridiculous so the internet found its latest meme. I’m not sure if he lost a bet or if he wanted to make the braodcast more interesting but Thank you, FOREVER FAHN! And congrats on all the awards! There …
Dear Lupita Nyong’o, Why Must You Slay Us Completely?
My newest celebrity crush is Lupita Nyong’o and if you have to ask me why, then we have nothing to talk about. I’m here to write her a love letter, because she is everything. I’m not even here to talk about her performance in 12 Years a Slave. No. I’m …
Dear Madonna, NOPE! You Cannot Use That Word
Social media keeps showing us that some of our favorite celebrities should really make use of their publicists 24/7 for all things. Also, they need to hire community managers to handle their accounts because when left to their own devices, they blow shit up so properly and so quickly. Madonna …
I Watched SNL (Hosted by Drake and Featuring Sasheer Zamata) Last Night
Last night’s Saturday Night Live was highly anticipated because Drake was hosting (and was the musical guest) but also because it was Sasheer Zamata’s first show as a featured castmember. As a former huge fan of SNL and a currently jaded sometimes watcher, I didn’t even decide to tune in …
Real Housewives of Blood Sweat and Golden Globes: Sunday TV Recap
I watched too much TV last night. Like seriously. 7 hours straight. And I live-tweeted most of it and my fingers hurt. So I present to you, one (not that giant) recap of the TV I watched on Sunday. Golden Globe Awards I wanted to watch it because Tina Fey and …
Tina Fey’s Prayer For Her Daughter is Hilarity
I am a HUGE fan of Tina Fey. She’s one of my sheroes (along with her BFF Amy Poehler). I wanna be their third wheel so bad. They’re the main reason I even feel like watching the Golden Globe Awards tonight. Last year, I read Tina’s book Bossypants and it’s …
