This black actor tried to be faithful after marriage but his urges have taken over. He's currently cheating on his wife with a variety of black and white models and a few actresses.
Interestingly, he can't stand to see black women with white men. The sight enrages him and he refers to them as "sell-outs."
He's usually private but he can barely keep it in his pants. Before marriage, he was involved with a very pretty woman but he creeped on her with a disease (non-fatal) infested woman who is pretty but scandalous.
He's getting tired of the dating game (on the sly). But instead of being faithful to his wife, the word is out, he's on the lookout for a permanent mistress, ASAP.

Here's that old blind item, I really think this old one ties in with this new one, Omar Epps is who I instantly thought of while reading this new blind item...
"JUMP-OFF: SEX, FAME & DRUGS:
She was once one of the highest paid in her field but she had a taste for meth and she also had a taste for other women's men.
This black female celebrity is scandalous and notorious to say the least. She once dated a white guy in the industry, imagine his shock when he realized that she allegedly infected him with herpes.
When he confronted her, her alleged reaction was, 'What's the big deal, almost everyone in Hollywood has it, you would have gotten it sooner or later?' He had to restrain himself from hitting her.
When she allegedly infected a black guy (out of the industry) he arrived at her home with a knife, the police had to be called and he reported her to the health department. The outcome is unknown.
This walking train wreck of a woman got involved with a famous black actor who was already involved with a famous black actress.
Our scandalous woman became annoyed, because, after sex, he would always speak in glowing terms about his actress girlfriend.
He finally halted the outside relationship when he began to hear rumors about her transmitting herpes and her drug use.
He knew, eventually, he would allegedly get herpes from her, since condoms don't stop herpes transmission and his girlfriend would know he was cheating. A few years later, he and his girlfriend would breakup, for different reasons.
This notorious woman has hit rock bottom, she went from 'A' list in her field to being a drugged out jumpoff. She went from rolling in a Mercedes to driving a junkyard car that backfires.
Despite her failures, she has a significant other (blinded by love) but she's still up to her old tricks.
Hints: Our scandalous woman was well known in her prime, she has never been a video girl, she's not a actress, rapper, singer, or writer. The cheating actor is currently on a television series and the black actress girlfriend he cheated on is very famous as well.

In my experience there have been some East Indian families that do not believe in mixing families with whites or blacks, and they have been very strict in to which East Indian families they allow their sons and daughters to marry into. I knew several East Indian women in college. All the ones I knew, except for one, were going to have some sort of arranged marriage (each with some degree of input from the daughters). The one woman that was not going to have an arranged marriage the reason behind that is that her parents ran off and got married to each other when they should have been married to other people and thus they could not tell her who she could marry. She also dated black men by the way, don't know who she married though.
Now there are some places in the West Indies such as Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana where there are very large population of persons of East Indian decent and there also seems to be a holding on to culture by some that would suggest that these persons were still in the East Indies, but I also know that mixed marriages with others are not uncommon in these areas.

Hello all, I am a long time lurker and I usually do not comment; however, I am very compelled to drops some knowledge on Curious's statements regarding people of African and East Indian descent.
Curious you are aboulutely correct, historically speaking anyways. We Black people know so little if any at all in some cases, regarding our true position in history on this planet. It has been skewed, and distrted in every way imaginable by the hands of Eurosupremacy.
The history true of India is one of those cases. It is one of the most mystical places on Earth, yet it's history is shrouded in lies and misconceptions, especially regarding the presence of Black/Africoid people.
The history of Black people in India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka and their near annihilation is considered by many scholars to be nothing more than 'mythology that cannot be proven.' This is a false assumption and there is plenty of Archaeological/Anthropoligical evidence to prove it.
The original people of the Indus Valley were the descendants of the modern day Dravidian/Dalite populations of India; degradingly stereotyped as 'untouchables'. The earliest ancestors of these people were the Kols or Kolarians, believed by some anthropologists to have been the descendants of Aboriginal/Africoid/Australoid people.
The Kolarians were a nomadic tribal people who had oily dark skin, EITHER kinky/curly OR straight hair and Africoid features. They established one of the most advanced civilizations on Earth known as the Indus Valley Civilization-(3000B.C.E-1500B.C.E.)
They had the total works: advanced irrigation systems, advanced forms of astronomy, engineering, mathematics, science, surgery, complete with flushing toilets. The most evidence of their influence can be found in areas in and around Mohenjo Daro
To make a long, long story short. The IVC came to an abrupt end around 1500 B.C.E. when invading Aryan tribes under the influence of Indra swept through from the North and decemated that civilization. Black people were slaughtered by the millions, which brought near annihilations. The population of the Kolarians was reduced by more that a third. This event is known as the Aryan Invasion of India.
After this the racist Hindu-Brahman caste system was set in place, which to this day in India, puts Light-skinned, Indo-Aryans at the top and poor Indigenous Dark-Skinned Dalite/Dravidians at the bottom.
Sorry for the long post, just like keeping folks informed.
As for the B.I. I'm leaning towards Omar Epps.

Sadly most East Indians and other groups of Asians can be some of the most Negrophobic/Blancophile people, yet the earliest inhabitants of their lands were Blacks. Most of early Asian culture was built by Blacks. And majority of Asian people, especially East Indians have Black/African DNA.
I remember reading an old Samurai saying that goes: "In order for a Samurai to be brave, he must have a bit of Black blood". Well in due time the world's flawed HisStorical record will be set straight.

That Scarlett Johannsen incident was really stupid. Why are you emailing a white actress in the middle of a campaign unless you're interested in the hookup. Scarlett leaked the story to the press and said she was surprised he kept up with her emails. That's a hint right there. If he gets elected, he isn't going to do much for blacks because the white government is not going to let him but I'm still voting for him over McCain, just being truthful. Reply to this

Well, I guess I would think that his mother was more than just her skin color and maybe there are other aspects of Michelle that remind him of his mother. Although I do not believe that Obama married Michelle simply for political reasons, I cannot be sure, people marry for a variety of reason. There are two things I do know for sure 1. I married my father and some of my mother without trying to and 2. even if Michelle Obama is nothing like his mother he did NOT settle when he married her, from all appearances she seems to be his match in stature, intellect, education, and drive.
One final thing I have found with attraction ... although it is a beautiful thing and probably the reason that make two people get together in the first place, all of that fades over time. I remember hearing someone say "Show me a beautiful woman and I will show you a man who is tired of f*ing her". It takes more than attraction and attractiveness to make a marriage work. Reply to this

It seemed like Harold should have been the one running for President since he had more experience in political office.

Choosing strategically does not mean you do not love that person , it means you are more dedicated in your hunt for a spouse That can share the same views you do and hold up under pressure , be your rock. Everybody's agenda is different and so is thier strategic spousal choice .

If you are from TN then you know some of the Fords are full of f*ckery. Jr. used the people of the district when he 1st ran for Congress in Memphis. His father held the seat for many years and many people thought that Jr. should have the position. He even ran for the office with huge signs with just JR. on them. He knew next to nothing about the community. He didn't even attend school in Memphis. He attended school in DC. He was in Congress for 10 years and didn't do a thing, but pass out turkeys. His district is up for grabs this year and the people in Memphis are scratching their asses wondering what exactly did he do for us again..
When he first came to Memphis he had a beautiful AA girlfriend. She was a doctor. They became engaged and were supposed to get married. All of the news stations had them on television. Fast forward a few years later...where is the black girlfriend...no wedding...nothing. He decides to run for Senate. He had a lot of white political power behind him. The powers that be expected him to become the 1st AA president. The plan was to run for Congress, Senate, governor, then president. The republicans ran an add with a white woman and the Playboy mansion saying call me Harold. The general public didn't know that the commercial was very accurate. He loves the snow bunnies. Everyone in Nashville knew this information. After he loses the election for the senate seat he leaves Memphis and out comes the white girlfriend, now wife. They got married in Miami. Her stepdad is the former chairman of Morgan Stanley. He hasn't been seen in Memphis since he lost the election.
I love my city. However, some black people in Memphis vote according to your name...and the Ford name is HUGE in Memphis. Also, I believe that you should marry the person that you love, but don't use your own people so that you can gain national attention. The people of his district really needed his help, not to be a part of his political agenda.

A friend who shall remain nameless told me a lot about this Ford, Jr., he loves the mansion and has put in time at the grotto and lets just say, what happens in the grotto, stays in the grotto. He literally chased those blonde bunnies down like a semi truck. He almost had his tongue hanging out of his mouth trying to get with as many bunnies as possible. He was a running partner of Dexter King who is an abuser behind closed doors, the rumors are out on Dex about abuse issues and non-black ladies. John Singleton is another one who is hyper at the mansion and Hype Williams thinks he is better than everyone else and those white people laugh behind his back and call him a ghetto video director.

AKA grandma2x'sgrandbabiesdaddy & tafka peterpiperlittlepecker...So what had happened was I thought I'd peep thru the past few BI's to try and catch up and I caught wind of all the multiple screen-name talk. Id like to say something real quick....A couple yrs ago I was a regular on a message board. I then was promoted to moderator of said message board. Said message board for reasons unknown to me got waaaaay out of hand. People were making death threats to other people, people were posting pictures of other people, posting addresses to where other people supposedly lived, and many other crazy things. The owner decided to give us the authority to ban screen names which was an authority we didn't have as moderators. That didn't work because the trouble makers would just sign up under a new screen name. The owner then decided to grant us the privilege of viewing ip addresses which we weren't able to do before in order to ban the ip addresses so these said posters couldn't re-register. That sort of worked but there was a problem...Several people had the same ip addresses...Ip addresses with an (s) a person could have replied 4 times in the same topic and had a different ip address each time they replied. But even worst several members all had the same ip addys. We were in shock. We as moderators began sending each other private messages and compiling list of those who had more than 1 screen name and then put them all on blast. Unbeknownst to us servers like aol sometimes provide the same blanket ip addy for many of their members in an attempt to prevent hacking and what not. So even though sally was posting from dallas texas and tyrone was posting from detroit,,,,their ip address led us to believe that they were the same person posting from Atlanta Georgia...And we called them out on it. That is until aol responded to our inquiry and set us straight. Now that didn't change the fact that several trouble makers had several screen names that they used to converse with themselves, reply to themselves, and even attack others, however I did learn that the ip game is sometimes very tricky. Even when we'd ban those ip addys of the people we were sure were trouble makers, theyd use software to change their ip addy and sign right back up (true story). Needless to say I resigned from my duties because the headache wasn't worth it, and said message board is still as crazy as it ever was.lol. Now I'm just sharing my experience. I'm sure everyone here knows what they are doing and so on and so forth. I'm not saying anybody is wrong or mistaken, and I don't argue nor fight online. It's just that reading through the past couple BI's gave me major flashbacks.
Alright my guess for this blind item is Terrence Howard. And as always a big good morning kiss (I'm sure they wont see it to morning) and a quick pinch on the booty (lol) to grandma, bulli, cat and the rest... Reply to this

I remember there was a story on PR about two black supermodels, extremely beautiful women who were putting the others to shame back in the 70's or 80's? I think I remember Pat Cleveland, but don't remember the other's name. Help! Reply to this

Reply to this
Fierce is the only word to describe that woman. I know she has her "diva" issues but she is my "idol". I tend not to idolize, but when she had to perform community service and the press was salivating, hoping to catch her looking messy, dirty, and "less than royal", she refused to give them the satisfaction. When she left on her last day, wearing a Versace gown, I was jumping up and down cheering.
Nothing but admiration for her "divatude" "divavinity" "divaness"

I'm a bit calmer now just to clarify The excessive photoshoping (shrinking of mouths and noses)comment was with regards to the cover images only. The photo's inside are fab. If you compare the Naomi cover page with the fierce pic on P101 by Lorenzo Bringheli & you'll see what I mean about the cover..

Hi All, If this is Omar Epps, he is a very busy man. Cheating on his wife with women and men as well, since he was a very popular guess as one of the men in a DL couple in TD’s book. Him and one of the Wayans brothers. Wasn’t there also some talk about Omar and Keisha participating in threeways back in the day and Eve’s name came up as a third party participant in their fun and games. I must admit that I did think that Keisha was the prettiest member of Total. Apparently Brandy and Keisha are good friends…saw pictures of them out shopping for baby things before Keisha gave birth.

Even randomly. If the drug rumors are true, this would explain her irrational and super reckless behavior. They are calling her the superhead of actresses. It's bad, real bad. Reply to this

When Gabby was a teenager she was working at a store and a man came in and robbed the store and raped her. I don't know the statistics but I do know that sometimes people who have been raped will display erratic sexual behavior. That could be her way of dealing with it. Its a shame that she went through that and now is acting this way. She is a beautiful and talented actress. I hope she gets her ish together Reply to this

Tigress, According to the psychs, the #1 reason for self-sabotage is a person not feeling worthy of the success/fortune/position that they have obtained. Gabby and Britney are walking down the same road. I actually had a major brush with this myself - 1989 accepted into MIT @ 16 years of age. By 1993 I was working in Dairy Queen trying to make ends meet. And I had a GREAT background - nuclear family, the whole 9. Somtimes you just can't tell. I will say this, right now Gabby = Britney. That is, Britney before the recent DADDY Spears transformation process. Gabby mentioned something in the vein of not feeling worthy about 3 or 4 Essence issues ago. Britney spoke about not feeling worthy in that Barbara Walters interview a while back. I think the quote was "Even with all my sucess, I still feel people look at me like the hick from Louisiana".
Lesson: Foster self-esteem in your children as if their lives depend on it because they DO! People who don't feel they are worthy of good things will DESTROY the good that they have. And that's just sad... Reply to this

Washington Post Saturday, June 28, 2008: Russell Simmons' divorce from Kimora Lee Simmons is gonna cost him a pretty penny in child support -- $480,000 per year to be exact.
In court documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday (June 24), it looks like the hip-hop mogul is to pay for each of his two daughters, Ming Lee and Aoki Lee, beginning in July. Russell Simmons, 50, must pay $20,000 per child per month in child support, which stops when each reaches the age of 19 1/2 -- or until the daughter is married, emancipated, becomes self-supporting, joins the armed forces or stops living with her mother. Once they can drive, he's required to buy or lease a car valued at $60,000 or more for each of the girls . . . once every 24 months.
While Kimora maintains sole custody of the two children, Russell will get visitation rights. He will get his kids every eighth week from Saturday until the following Saturday when they are to be returned at 6:00 p.m., according to the documents, which will take place in Los Angeles, where Kimora resides. However, holidays, summers, and vacations, are also options.
Once reading through the documents, it's revealed that the $40,000 per month isn't the only thing he's responsible for either.
The couple's Saddle River, New Jersey home, which was featured on MTV's 'Cribs' in the past, has been put on the market, and Kimora will be able to occupy the residence until it sells. On top of that, Russell is told to fork out $18,000 for up-keep per month to Kimora until it is sold.
Later in the court documents, it says that Russell is responsible for providing Kimora with a vehicle every two years, valued at no less than $60,000.
Despite all the big money he has to shell out, he may seek a reduction in monthly payments if his income falls 30% below what he filed in his 2008 tax filing.
These child support payments will commence until 2019 for Ming Lee and 2022 for Aoki. Reply to this

Now that's ri-damn-diculous. A kid just learning to drive doesn't need a $60,000 car! Even if I was a multi-millionaire, my kid would not be in a Mercedes or Jag, etc. You will not be flossin' like that on MY dime. Consider yourself blessed to have a Honda Civic!

I dont think we are looking at him as being perfect. We are looking at him with hope, happiness and pride. That is where the emotions come in.

She really needs to practice that looks and I promise no one will misquote her. Will Smith has been doing it big for quite some time now. His 2 youngest kids are now acting. He is the man. Edwina's movies haven't been good in awhile. He needs to retire now. Reply to this
I knew Sheri was going to backpaddle regarding what she said in that magazine. Even though she should have kept that to herself anyways cause its really between her and God regarding those abortions. She need to know what to say and what not to say. Which goes to what I was saying before about celebrities. You don't have to lie about anything. Like Beyonce' she don't comment on her personal life and she let the media know this. And she was still able to be successful. So it has nothing to do with how people may react if you are honest in the beginning. If you choose to say "well that's personal and I don't feel the need to comment on that", then leave it alone. I frankly could care less about what a celebrity does in their personal life, but if you are publicly acting a 'fool' than you get what you ask for.
And the top female actresses are the following: The top 5 overpaid chicks in Hollywoodweird are:
1. Pizza Face Diaz - $50 million 2. Keira Knightley - $32 million 3. Jennifer Aniston - $27 million 4. Reese Witherspoon - $25 million 5. Fishsticks Paltrow - $25 million
No black female actress at the top. SMH! Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Anniston and MS Palrow didn't make any movies this past year that should have gotten them to make this type of money IMO. Love Resse, she is works hard for her parts and I respect she don't talk about her personal life either and look at what she is making. Seiously no black actresess in the top 5. I am going to do my research to see where we are at on this freakin list. Reply to this

I agree Sheri should have kept that business about the abortions to herself, but I guess she's just determined to expose the depth of her ignorance. It takes a special kind of fool to make Elizabeth Hasselbeck appear as if she actually has functioning brain cells.
As for the top 5 paid actresses, that list is pitiful, especially #3 and #5. Has Jennifer Aniston even had a hit? And except for 'Ironman' where she wasn't even the star, has Gwyneth made a movie in the last 5 years that made more than $5.00? Reply to this

The story I remember most is when Missy Elliot talked about the rats that she use to see in her apartment. I remember SMH & thinking, damn.......why could she just say we were poor. I would watch the shows on my favorite white singers and they would often use the expression "poor" and that was it. They never gave narratives of rats, roaches, hookers & junkies outside.

I know Star Jones is not a popular person, but I strongly believed that Star's intelligence was only tolerated by her "co-hosts" and the audience as long as she remained obese. She was not as intimidating to them because they could always say "you may be a lawyer, black, pretty, and smart--but you are fat." Once she shed the weight, she was a little too black and uppity for Ms. Barbara Walters.

Darlings, I agree, Star was the white sterotypical looking black woman but as soon as she lost that weight, they all changed towards her. In the industry, it's a known fact, don't hire attractive black actresses who might upstage white actresses on popular shows. They're not many pretty black actresses on TV. They like the fat unattractive loud types. They run from sophisticated and intelligent black women. I hate that Nona Gaye beat out Elan for Law & Order Criminal Intent because Nona was fired into the season and Elan would have still been taping because she is professional, gorgeous and sophisticated but they went with Nona because she had a bigger resume.

My question to Justin's ignorant rascist comment is when he said this why didn't these athletes and their families got up a left. I would not have continue to sit there at this awards program. Why couldn't they make a statement by showing this is not allowed? Its not funny. They just sat there in awe. Wow! No one left.
When Krammer was using the N-word at a freakin Comedy CLUB,people got up and left. Whites, blacks, whomever. They got up and left the club.
So if the ESPY awards is of such high importance and this racist made these types of 'jokes'(BTW, HE'S NOT A COMEDIAN)why didn't anyone leave? As quiet as it not keep most White Male americans don't care for Justin anyways. Just check the blogs they are always sonning him. Reply to this

If you don't mind telling me in short, what did he say? I can't open that up here at the plantation. Reply to this
Pop music star Justin Timberlake hosted ESPN's 16th Annual ESPY Awards last Wednesday in Los Angeles, and the show aired on Sunday. The broadcast's 4-day tape delay was, apparently, for good reason. The show's editors got to exact their cutting-room tactics early on in the show, when Timberlake's monologue took an uncomfortably racial turn.
The gaffe occured as the host was teasing Paul Pierce about his "injured" knee in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, sports blog FanNation.com reports. In describing how Pierce quickly came back after being taken off on a wheelchair, Timberlake joked that Pierce was back on the court, "shucking and jiving." According to reports, the comment was met with silence from the audience.
The phrase has it's origins in slavery and is, to some, an offensive reference to the black person's historical subordinance to whites. Other's in the media have caught heat for using the phrase - which is widely misunderstood.
In May of 2007, Sacramento Bee sports writer Paul Gutierrez described boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. as having "shucked and jived" in a post-fight story. The writer later apologized. Reply to this

Hello everyone! I've been a fan of this site for some time now, but this is my first time posting. I wanted to comment on the Justin Timberlake incident. That was a really stupid thing to say, I agree. He may be a racist, but I know one thing for sure. HE LOVES BLACK WOMEN! He has a thing for thick legs and big butts. Now I dont know if he's ever publicly dated a black girl, but I do know that he has. Especially during the Nsync days when no one was really checking for him.
Anyway, I met him a couple of times and he was really nice to me but he did ignore his fans a little. He wasnt rude or anything, but he stared at me from across the room during the ENTIRE encounter. He had all these girls in his face trying to talk to him, and he could not take his eyes off me. I'm not exaggerating. I had heard stories about how he loved the sistas but I didnt believe it til that day. By the way, I was the only black girl in the room. So I finally get up to go and talk to him and there's this girl standing there "attempting" to have a conversation with him. He literally waved this girl out of his way like he was telling her to move on. I was like WTF!!! This was during the time he was dating Britney Spears, or maybe I should say when they were denying it. In any event, his comments really shocked me because I thought he liked us too. Reply to this

Hi ShesSuingMe....I don't doubt your story. I believe that he and Janet were seeing each other too. But one thing I have learned just because a white man wants to sleep with you doe not mean he is not racist. I come across it all the time in my line of work. Who you want to sleep with and how you view a race of people can be polar opposites in one person's mind. When I deal with out of town clients...I get hit on all the time but when it comes to getting to the bottom line and dealing with money they want to go over it with my white boss. So I can definitely see JT trying to hit u up and continually doing the ignorant things he gets away with towards Blacks. Reply to this

Maybe because I am older and more mature I see nothing wrong with Rick having a legit job before he got in the game.

I love The First 48! I always find it interesting that as soon as something goes down, everybody and their momma is outside watching and looking. Half the time someone even calls the victims family members so they can haul tail and get down there. But no one wants to speak on the record about who did what. I can understand not wanting to be on camera and all that, but at least take a flier and tell them later. I also make it a point to have my brother watch it so he can see just how some folks will turn and kill you in an instant, because majority of the time it's someone that the victim knew. Ate at your kitchen table, went to school with, ran the street with, sat on the stoop with, and then one day due to a disagreement or petty envy decided you gotta go. Then when they cath the killers they either want to break down and cry, turn on each other and finger the other guy or they want to act hard and pretend they have no idea what your talking about.

She knows I'm sad to hear that, too. I also thought he was one of the faithful ones. And who's to say Nic doesn't know. But unless he's like Denzel barely keeping it in his pants and blatantly out there with his, then I doubt Nic is going anywhere. Nevertheless, I'm still surprised and I feel sorry for her.

i am not "fluent" in any languages per se, but i can "piece" spanish togther here and there. now i know that one of the best ways to learn a language is to learn from someone native to that language or hell if you could spend a year there. i have friends in the latin world to assist with my spanish. anyway...
has anyone studied the "rosetta stone" system of learning other languages? was it effective for you?
i am very interested in purchasing the spanish, french and german editions for my personal investment. it's very expensive, but i would make the sacrifice. or are there other systems just as good and less expensive.

HI Guys, O/T: I heard that the young man that played Telma Hopkins's son on the tv show Family Matters and now plays Devon on the Y&R is DL. I was a little surprised to hear that. I think he grew into a cute little youngun. I don't know if there are any soap fans out (I catch them once in a blue moon), but what from I understand daytime soaps are rife with DL actors and actresses. I also heard that Victoria Rowell would like to come back to Y&R, don't know true it is. They don't seem to eager to have her back if that's the case. I caught Eva Pigford's peformance on Y&R one day and IMO she's not half bad. I read she is catching on with fans and they think she might be a viable love interest for Kristoff St. John.

I remember hearing about her wanting to write as well and I think that is at least partially why she left. My understanding was that she wasn't feeling the way Drucilla was being written by the then-writers. I know Eric Braeden (Victor) said in an interview early this year that he was very unhappy with the writing of his character as well; apparently there was a LOT of unhappiness with the former exec producer/head writer, even leading to a an online fan petition to get her out of there.
That EP (and several members of her writing staff) were just fired around February or March. So that may have had a lot to do with it, but now it may be a matter of having a brand new staff that has never worked with Victoria before and are concentrating on storylines where there just isn't room for her return. That's a shame as she was always one of my favorite characters on any soap...says the chick who hasn't actually watched a full episode of any soap in two or three years.
Jumping subjects a bit: someone told me there are a lot of scientologists on Y&R too, at the time she could only recall Sharon Case (Sharon) and Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) off the top of her head. That surprised me for some reason, though it probably shouldn't have. And I'll probably never get a chance to see her on there, but I do hope things work out for Eva. I can see her and Kristoff having good chemistry on-screen. Reply to this

No I don't think Bryton McClue (Devon) is Telma's son in real life. He played her son Ritchie on Family Matters. For soap fans, particulary Y&R, I also heard that Michael Grazeadei (Daniel), Greg Rikkart (Kevin), and Christian LeBlanc (Michael) are all gay. Apparently Adrienne Frantz is the "Gabby" of the Y&R set and the B&B when she wason that show. She supposedly gets it poppin behind the scenes. I think Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) might be DL to because she always accompanies Christian LeBlanc to events and awards show as his "date" and they are apparently close friends. From what I understand, there are so many DL men and women and affairs going on between co-stars on the daytime soaps. Reply to this

I never noticed Michelle Stafford being a beard for LeBlanc. I'll keep an eye on that. I was on a Y&R site and I was surprised that she has so many fans. I guess she's evil with a heart, lol
I've always said that if I had a soap, I would hire Robin Givens to play evil, and someone mentioned Omarosa. I know she was voted tv's best villain, but evil characters also have sex appeal, and I don't think she pulls that off. But who knows, I never thought Stafford had sex appeal, but fans love her.

I'm sitting in the back because there is a hearing going on.. so this young white lawyer has his client on the stand.. a young black guy.. so the Mr. lawyer starts asking the client questions and he's like so on the day in question how many of your acquaintances were with you.. client gives the blank star.. he's like how many what?? so Mr. Lawyer says.. your acquaintances how many did you have with you.. client says Sir I don't have any acquaintances.. I don't eve know what that is.. so I'm in the back just smirking.. so Mr. Lawyer decides to try a different approach.. so he says sir I need to know what associates were with you that day.. (now a lot of law firms are title.. Blah Blah and Associates) so the kid on the stand says.. Sir no one from your office was with me.. So now Mr. Lawyer is very frustrated and he's like Sir I mean your associates.. how many were with you ?? (by now I am in full out giggle in the back of court)
Now the client gets indignant because he thinks Mr. Lawyer is messing up.. so he says look I paid you to represent me after I got arrested.. I ain't have no associates...
Finally the judge intervenes and says..hold up Mr. Lawyer I got this.. the judge looks at the kid and he's like.. were your peeps with you that day.. and the kid is like Oh yeah.. D-bo, Lil Man and Rocky were in my car.. OMG I died laughing.. and Mr. Lawyer blushed bright red.. whew!!

litigating wrote: Okay O/T since this BI has us stumped can we take a brief intermission why I tell you what happened to me today ?? So I was at the courthouse when a colleague called me and asked me to stand in for him. So he tells me the client is charged with prostitution and to ask for Cashmere when I get there.
So I walk into the courtroom and say Cashmere.. is Cashmere here.. this 6 foot 4 inch tranny starts walking towards me... okay color me silly cause it still didn't occur to me that this was Cashmere so I'm turning to leave and check the hallway for "her" . Anyway I put my hand on the door to leave, and then I feel this heavy hand land on my back and "shim says" You looking for me, I'm cashmere... now if that don't beat all.. old boy has a mouth full of gold teeth and tats. And he's wearing a lil Kimesque outfit with his belly out in court... anyway I tried to maintain my professionalism and so I shake his hand and introduce myself. Anyway we're standing in front of the judge and the judge is always pretty flirty with me and he tells me , i'll just dimiss it for you.. so as we're walking out Cashmere says to me, "I can't believe how hard that judge was sweating me.. trying to get with me in court." When I got to my car I laughed so hard I cried.. still LMAO

This reminds me of that female DJ who was at the beat radio station in L.A., her name was Diane Steele, she loved black men, she was a white chick and she married this black trainer, while she was on air, he was on the internet at home, finding women to have sex with and was going in Diane's account, sending the women money. She found out later that he had 2 kids outside their marriage, he was a so called personal trainer who tried to meet women in the gym. Women were even calling her at the station saying, your hubby let me drive your benz, it rides so smooth, who is your mechanic.

You stated that the version of windows xp that you got was burned from a xp CD. Unless the license was a volume license (More than one copy) it will not allow you to install it. Starting with XP Microsoft put in controls to stop people from installing the software on more than one machine. If you happen to have the license number and it is not going through when you enter it then you can call the 1-800 number that comes up (in the activate windows screen) and they will give you another number. However they ask you for the number that you are trying to use and if it is found to have been used before there is a chance you could get in trouble for trying to pirate the software. Reply to this

The truth about children is they are within the home and know what is going on with their parents. Some parents think children don't know, but they do. If LL is disrespecting his wife, the mother of his children, by beating her and on the DL, then this is not surprising. I have stated this before, you will see a lot more of these celebrity's children venting in one form or another. But you must also remember there are parents that do set a very good example for their children but they can't control them, its peer pressure(internet,music, videos,magazines,etc) rather you rich or poor. Most children test the waters and learn not to just jump in, but others jump in and sadly drown. Celebrities may hide their true selves from the public but behind closed doors these kids are exposed to the truth and it does effect them in either negative or a positive manner. As a parent myself, I know I can do what I want cause I am an adult, but I dont. ? It may effect my daughter cause she's a child and she may not fully understand certain things and I won't force her too. If I am going to date someone they can't come to my home, and this is not an option. Even though she's a child this is her home too and I know that I am her role model first and I take pride in that.

Supercent, very well put...Children often imitate what they see and hear from their parents. Maybe b/c we are all out paper-chasing...leaving our children home to watch BET, play video games, and play on the internet, hoping that these options will entertain and educate our children. While I do not have any children of my own, I have seen my friend's and family's kids "act out" b/c they were not getting the attention they felt they deserve at home. I do understand that you cannot shield your children from all of life's ills but as a parent, mentor, educator or whatever, we need to filter a lot of the BS that is coming into the home. Children will often do only what you (parents) let them get away with. We need to teach our youth about responsibility and being held accountable for your actions. I am really concerned with the direction these kids are taking. They are doing this at 12 and 13 years old that I didn't do until my 20s....Maybe it's b/c I had both parents in the home or I was just scared to death of my parents!! These kids are not being disciplined at home, and before I piss anyone off I don't mean beat the living daylights out of them either. I mean most of us got a good whoopin or two and for the most part we came out just fine right? We as kids we taught to respect our elders, and never talk down to them. We learned the importance of getting a quality education...A teacher can only give you the lesson for the day...A parent can give a child the support and positive self-esteem he or she needs to be all that he or she can be. I guess what I'm trying to say is we can't blame these kids for being bad when the parents are out being worse...It's time for men to be a father to their children and stop being a bady daddy, and women need to spend quality time with their kids and stop hanging out trying to act like they don't have responsibilities at home....Let's get it together people!!

@ The Fresh Prince of PR (aka Soulful_brotha)
You are correct. Before I had my daughter I use to always questioned my friends with children as to why they allow different men around their children. Do you truely know this person well enough to have them in the same home as your children? Most of these cats they wasn't trying to really be wtih serioulsy. Then next thing you know they are fighting in front of their kids with someone for the moment. SMH! I could never understand that. Very sadly I know quite a few women like this, in my family as well. And we were left to raise their children cause they were too busy with their own selfish lives. Maybe they should have thought about this before they decided to have three, four, five kids.
I had a friend, who was going through hard times. She asked me to move in with her. I had to tell her NO. First, I don't need a roommate. But I didn't say that. I just let her know our lifestyles are different. She has a 13 year old son, whom she allows to listen to any type of rap music. My daugther is 9 and I don't. She has more then one man she's dating and coming to her home after dark. And I don't. I work at home, so I am up at 5am. It would have definitely ruined our friendship. Then she had said something that struck a nerve in me. She was like 'I understand cause I am a screamer'. Yes she did. And she know I didn't want to know that. I am thinking isn't your young son in the house. SMDH! Since then we haven't talk cause I know deep down she upset. Bue in reality do I really want a friend that thinks so selfishly.But i know I made the right decision. No I am no by means perfect and nor do i think I have all the answers. But I refuse to just Billy, Joe, Jermaine, and God knows who else around my daugher.
I was talking to this guy that I met. He was asking if we can go out to dinner, movie, etc and then end up at my house. I was like I don't allow anyone at my home, unless I have been knowing you for some years. As of now the only ones I allow at my home are SOME family members and my daughter's father. My daughter's father can't spend the night, were not together anyways and he can't be hanging here all night. His response was 'So you let your child run your house'. Of course, I tried to stay as composed as possible. I quickly responded to him by saying STFU, you don't know me and you don't pay any bills in my house. I allow who I want when I want whenever I feel like it. But unlike most of the females you may have come across, I don't allow strangers in my home unless he is a potential husband. My child is very important to me and this is her home as well. I don't know you and after this conversation I don't want to know you. Have a good life. He tried to call me several million times later. Didn't answer call, finally got the clue. Reply to this

She doesn't know if your friend is a child rapist, ax muderer, etc (he's not but she doesn't know that). I really wonder when it became acceptable that we lose respect for ourselves.

I feel now that I am not missing anything. But I am a parent. I knew what I had to do before I had her. I know how I am and I don't want some maniac coming to my door cause I won't return his calls or I no longer want to 'be with him'. This is a crazy world as it is and I want to keep it out of my home as much as possible. I was this way when I use to take care of my nephews and neices. I don't have people that I don't know personally around them. I mean I know where they work, live, children, etc. Some parents feel they don't need to respect their kids and that has nothing to do with them being an adult.
What makes it worse is that I have gotten a lot of slack for being this way. It like well that's not a gurantee your child will be safe. So am I suppose to throw her to the wolves????

Even though I partied I still made time for my nephews and neices. At times I didn't hang out with my friends cause I had to watch them cause their parents was being trif. SMH! I make sure my daughter understands and I always give her examples, newspaper/magazines articles, blogs. So she ok with it and she knows I love her with all of my heart.
Ok I had this co-worker who was a man hunter. She didn't care where she found a man she was going to find one. I didn't really know her personally because she didn't like me. And I am too embarrass to let you guys know why? Anyways she was a friend of a friend. She met two men online. The first on she took to the company picnic. Yes the company picnic. Had just met him 2 weeks prior to the event. She came to work one day and her daughter called her it was an emergency call. She had to rushed home. When her daughter got home, the house was robbed, not signs of forced entry. Well the police help her to figured out it was him. And she couldn't give them too much information cause she didn't know anything about him besides what he had on the internet which was false. Then she met another dude who had just gotten out of prison. As a matter of fact, he was in/out of prison. She married him within 3 months I think, maybe less. He convinced her to move to Arkansas with his family. They moved to some hick town in Arkansas. She transfered which was the only smart thing she did. They started having marital problems and he ended back in jail for 10 years. Now she' back here. Oh yeah, her daughter was 11 years old at the time. Reply to this

Good for you and your child is very blessed to have a mother like you.
This black actor tried to be faithful after marriage but his urges have taken over. He's currently cheating on his wife with a variety of black and white models and a few actresses.
Interestingly, he can't stand to see black women with white men. The sight enrages him and he refers to them as "sell-outs."
He's usually private but he can barely keep it in his pants. Before marriage, he was involved with a very pretty woman but he creeped on her with a disease (non-fatal) infested woman who is pretty but scandalous.
He's getting tired of the dating game (on the sly). But instead of being faithful to his wife, the word is out, he's on the lookout for a permanent mistress, ASAP.
Hint: Movie/TV actor, very well known actor in black community.

Although Boris' mom is white, the insiders say he only dates black and I believe he was the subject in a BI that said the same re: only dating black.

hi and welcome
myra/paris/amber/spymaster/staff will never "reveal" the answers to the BIs. if you scan through the boards, various guesses will be "notted" along with some additional clues. Usually (which I consider USUALLY=99.999%) the answer is ALWAYS somewhere within the board. The PR crew is no joke.
Again welcome and feel free to post..

Wouldn't the non-fatal part rule out Karrine, seeing that she was supposedly serious with Eddie Winslow. She was just in S2S talking about the breakup between those two clowns. She's got suicide written all between her legs
Reply to this
I just bought that S2S mag and I haven't finished reading it yet. I had to put it down when I started reading Superhead's story. All I could think about is how her innocent son is being damaged by her continous drama. It looks like she's trying to put Darius at blame for her son's emotional breakdown but she has absolute control over who enters her child's life and anyone with eyes could see Darius was not someone to be a father figure. The kid is already catching hell with her as a mother. I don't feel a bit sorry for that drama magnet but my heart goes out to that little boy.

Hey Peaches, the Omar/Sanaa/Bev Peele herp topic was discussed a longtime ago & you know how it happens here...someone comes on drops some bombs that you have to hold onto for future BI's.

Here's that old blind item, I really think this old one ties in with this new one, Omar Epps is who I instantly thought of while reading this new blind item...
"JUMP-OFF: SEX, FAME & DRUGS:
She was once one of the highest paid in her field but she had a taste for meth and she also had a taste for other women's men.
This black female celebrity is scandalous and notorious to say the least. She once dated a white guy in the industry, imagine his shock when he realized that she allegedly infected him with herpes.
When he confronted her, her alleged reaction was, 'What's the big deal, almost everyone in Hollywood has it, you would have gotten it sooner or later?' He had to restrain himself from hitting her.
When she allegedly infected a black guy (out of the industry) he arrived at her home with a knife, the police had to be called and he reported her to the health department. The outcome is unknown.
This walking train wreck of a woman got involved with a famous black actor who was already involved with a famous black actress.
Our scandalous woman became annoyed, because, after sex, he would always speak in glowing terms about his actress girlfriend.
He finally halted the outside relationship when he began to hear rumors about her transmitting herpes and her drug use.
He knew, eventually, he would allegedly get herpes from her, since condoms don't stop herpes transmission and his girlfriend would know he was cheating. A few years later, he and his girlfriend would breakup, for different reasons.
This notorious woman has hit rock bottom, she went from 'A' list in her field to being a drugged out jumpoff. She went from rolling in a Mercedes to driving a junkyard car that backfires.
Despite her failures, she has a significant other (blinded by love) but she's still up to her old tricks.
Hints: Our scandalous woman was well known in her prime, she has never been a video girl, she's not a actress, rapper, singer, or writer. The cheating actor is currently on a television series and the black actress girlfriend he cheated on is very famous as well.
Hint: Not Beverly Peele"

Thnks Pro for pulling up. I see I confused the Bev Peele part but I still think it's Omar

You're welcome! I noticed when you go here http://blog.panachereport.com/2007/10/21/blind-item-jumpoff-sex-fame--drugs.aspx where the comments are, the "Hint: Not Beverly Peele" is not there, that extra tidbit was added when you go here http://panachereport.com/channels/hip%20hop%20gallery/BlindItems.htm on the site where the archives are located. So I'm guessing it just has to be about Ananda then since her and Beverly were the main ones guessed alot don't cha think?
Reply to this
Nevermind! LOL! While skimming through the comments on that old blind item, I just now saw where Paris said "This is not ananda lewis, forgot to mention that earlier." So maybe the woman is Nicole then since it's not Bev or Ananda.
Reply to this
Good because I was having a hard time believing this was Ananda. Scandalous, yes but A-list in her field - nah.

indeed I do...I didn't remember the hint but yes...unless Paris says no- I think this is a wrap

Hi Gorgeous Sable, so in LA do a lot of Black women as a result date outside of their race? Men of other races are an option....is there a stigma associated with this, but the opposite of this is applauded. I have noticed a new trend here where I live...black men with Indian women. Just curious as to the dynamics of it.

Reply to this
In my experience there have been some East Indian families that do not believe in mixing families with whites or blacks, and they have been very strict in to which East Indian families they allow their sons and daughters to marry into. I knew several East Indian women in college. All the ones I knew, except for one, were going to have some sort of arranged marriage (each with some degree of input from the daughters). The one woman that was not going to have an arranged marriage the reason behind that is that her parents ran off and got married to each other when they should have been married to other people and thus they could not tell her who she could marry. She also dated black men by the way, don't know who she married though.
Now there are some places in the West Indies such as Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana where there are very large population of persons of East Indian decent and there also seems to be a holding on to culture by some that would suggest that these persons were still in the East Indies, but I also know that mixed marriages with others are not uncommon in these areas.

Hello all, I am a long time lurker and I usually do not comment; however, I am very compelled to drops some knowledge on Curious's statements regarding people of African and East Indian descent.
Curious you are aboulutely correct, historically speaking anyways. We Black people know so little if any at all in some cases, regarding our true position in history on this planet. It has been skewed, and distrted in every way imaginable by the hands of Eurosupremacy.
The history true of India is one of those cases. It is one of the most mystical places on Earth, yet it's history is shrouded in lies and misconceptions, especially regarding the presence of Black/Africoid people.
The history of Black people in India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka and their near annihilation is considered by many scholars to be nothing more than 'mythology that cannot be proven.' This is a false assumption and there is plenty of Archaeological/Anthropoligical evidence to prove it.
The original people of the Indus Valley were the descendants of the modern day Dravidian/Dalite populations of India; degradingly stereotyped as 'untouchables'. The earliest ancestors of these people were the Kols or Kolarians, believed by some anthropologists to have been the descendants of Aboriginal/Africoid/Australoid people.
The Kolarians were a nomadic tribal people who had oily dark skin, EITHER kinky/curly OR straight hair and Africoid features. They established one of the most advanced civilizations on Earth known as the Indus Valley Civilization-(3000B.C.E-1500B.C.E.)
They had the total works: advanced irrigation systems, advanced forms of astronomy, engineering, mathematics, science, surgery, complete with flushing toilets. The most evidence of their influence can be found in areas in and around Mohenjo Daro
To make a long, long story short. The IVC came to an abrupt end around 1500 B.C.E. when invading Aryan tribes under the influence of Indra swept through from the North and decemated that civilization. Black people were slaughtered by the millions, which brought near annihilations. The population of the Kolarians was reduced by more that a third. This event is known as the Aryan Invasion of India.
After this the racist Hindu-Brahman caste system was set in place, which to this day in India, puts Light-skinned, Indo-Aryans at the top and poor Indigenous Dark-Skinned Dalite/Dravidians at the bottom.

Funny the topic of India has come up I saw this documentary on the History channel called "All About Dung" one of the segments was about how cows are viewed as deity & there was this housewarming ritual where they bring in a cow into their new home and wait for the cow to take a dump right on the floor! This was a sign of good luck.
Oh did I mention that folks gathered around a table a drank "coffee" partially made from cow dung.

Very informative...I did not know this. I was born in T&T and while my ancenstry does originate from the East Indies I know that many "Indians" believe they are white and will only marry their own race or white. My great grandmother, grandmother and mother who all were born in T&T realized differently and therefore why I was raised the way I am. I am fully aware of the racism Indians have towards others but after learning the above it makes the whole situation worse. Thanks for the knowledge.
Reply to this
Tell me about it Curious. There is a possibility that your mother and grandmothers knew that knowledge, and that is what made them choose to raise you the way that they did.
Sadly most East Indians and other groups of Asians can be some of the most Negrophobic/Blancophile people, yet the earliest inhabitants of their lands were Blacks. Most of early Asian culture was built by Blacks. And majority of Asian people, especially East Indians have Black/African DNA.
I remember reading an old Samurai saying that goes: "In order for a Samurai to be brave, he must have a bit of Black blood". Well in due time the world's flawed HisStorical record will be set straight.

Nicole is just worried about karma. Many people never knew that Nicole was married when she started doing Soul Food. She left her husband to hook up with Boris. Sister to Sister was the only mag that I knew that reported that she was married. In other magazines, Nicole would always say that when she & Boris met, they both were in bad relationships. She would never use the word marriage.

I just checked IMDB and they have both of her marriages listed... the first one lasted all of 8 months. You're right, she downplayed that one.

HAVE YOU ALL NOT READ BARACK'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY? HE TALKS ABOUT A WHITE WOMAN HE WAS I LOVE WITH FOR A YEAR. HE TOOK HER TO A BLACK PLAY. AFTERWARDS SHE MADE THE MISTAKE OF ASKING WHY ARE BLACK PEOPLE SO ANGRY? THEY HAD IT OUT RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF THE THEATRE & THAT WAS THE END OF THAT.
Reply to this
Black people are too emotional over him and act like he's perfection. Brothers in Hollywood, sports and politics married black but creep white. He's no exception, we know his dirt on the hill. He's not a perfect man, no one is. I'm sure he loves his wife but let's face it, if he planned a future in politics years ago, he's going further married to a black woman vs. a white woman but he can still indulge in his pleasure on the side away from the spotlight. That Scarlett Johannsen incident was really stupid. Why are you emailing a white actress in the middle of a campaign unless you're interested in the hookup. Scarlett leaked the story to the press and said she was surprised he kept up with her emails. That's a hint right there. If he gets elected, he isn't going to do much for blacks because the white government is not going to let him but I'm still voting for him over McCain, just being truthful.

Hey Lobbyist~
How are you doing? Love it when you post.What do you think about John Edward's Mistress and love child story that is popping up on the net via the national enquirer?
Reply to this
I don't think Barack is perfect. I posted that comment because someone earlier was surprise at the fact that Barack like white women too. I posted earlier that I had never met of a brotha who was into black women only. There are more races out their other than black & white. This is 2008. I think most people are open to being happy. Now I do believe their are people who PREFER their own race but they are still open to being happy with anyone. Stats say that 43% of black women will NEVER marry one time while other races are on their 2nd & 3rd spouse. I think if anyone should expand the pool, it should be sistas.
Reply to this
It is interesting that you use that statistic as it was also used on CNN last night for the series that they are doing on being Black in America. It was really interesting. Another statistic they high lighted was that there are twice as many black females in college than men. They also tackled the issue of interracial dating, overall pretty good stuff. I do agree with you, if more black women want to get married they will need to expand the pool and be more open.

I like Obama as well, and acknowledge that's he s picture of imperfection, as I am. I always had this visceral feeling that his choice in Michelle was somewhat "strategic," dare I say. However, I do believe he loves her. I haven't read his memoir, but I did read an excerpt or a paraphrased excerpt where Obama wrote that he and one of his college friends would sit around and discuss how they wished that they could get certain types of college girls to date them. It makes one wonder.
Reply to this
Tiena, it makes sense to me that Obama would be attracted to white women (among others)... Wasn't his mother white? And if you believe Freudian theories the first woman he loved and to which he would compare all woman would be his mother.
I respect him as a man who has done what NOBODY thought that he could do ... but he did it anyway. Love that in him.
Reply to this
Exactly, so did he successfully suppress his desire to be with/marry a woman who looks like his mother in order to make what he may have believed to be a more politically astute decision to marry a black woman? If the answer is yes, then even Freud would have to concede that Obama has some resolve!
Reply to this
Well, I guess I would think that his mother was more than just her skin color and maybe there are other aspects of Michelle that remind him of his mother. Although I do not believe that Obama married Michelle simply for political reasons, I cannot be sure, people marry for a variety of reason. There are two things I do know for sure 1. I married my father and some of my mother without trying to and 2. even if Michelle Obama is nothing like his mother he did NOT settle when he married her, from all appearances she seems to be his match in stature, intellect, education, and drive.
One final thing I have found with attraction ... although it is a beautiful thing and probably the reason that make two people get together in the first place, all of that fades over time. I remember hearing someone say "Show me a beautiful woman and I will show you a man who is tired of f*ing her". It takes more than attraction and attractiveness to make a marriage work.

Damn Tiena, I thought I was the only one who thought that about his choice in Michelle for a wife. I like Obama & I think he is smart as hell. I do believe that his presidential aspriations didn't start in the last couple years. This is something that was more than a decade in the making. If more people would read his memoir, we would understand that Barack is up on black people. Half way through it I told my mother that I cannot believe that we had the audacity to question if he was black enough. Barack knew there was no way in hell he could get 92% of the black vote with a white woman on his arm. I agree with you. I do believe that he loves Michelle.
Reply to this
I'm an Obama fan but do agree that there probably is more calculation going on with him and his political ascent than we're giving him credit for. During the primaries, I wondered more than once why Harold Ford Jr.'s career didn't take off like Obama's. It seemed like Harold should have been the one running for President since he had more experience in political office. However, he had a kind of playboy reputation, especially with white women, and this might have doomed his chances for becoming a senator as well as one day running for President.
Reply to this
You are correct on Harold Ford, Jr. Months after he lost that senate race in Tenn, he was engaged to this plain jane white woman. She looked like a younger Laura Bush. You know he kept her well hidden during the race.
Reply to this
I am proud to see a black candidate run ,it's history ... But he will not be our messiah, and unfair to try to make him be !
Also his mom is white so why shouldn't he have been attracted to white women . this should not be an issue .
Choosing strategically does not mean you do not love that person , it means you are more dedicated in your hunt for a spouse That can share the same views you do and hold up under pressure , be your rock. Everybody's agenda is different and so is thier strategic spousal choice .
I also believe what the poster said about reading his autobiography , i have purchased it and i am reading now . Will let you know my feeling , I will also read the audacity of hope before the elections . Because from the speeches , i don't get much of a feeling re his policies. I will vote for him , my vote will not go to mccain ..
what do you think of the green party ~!
Reply to this
If you are from TN then you know some of the Fords are full of f*ckery. Jr. used the people of the district when he 1st ran for Congress in Memphis. His father held the seat for many years and many people thought that Jr. should have the position. He even ran for the office with huge signs with just JR. on them. He knew next to nothing about the community. He didn't even attend school in Memphis. He attended school in DC. He was in Congress for 10 years and didn't do a thing, but pass out turkeys. His district is up for grabs this year and the people in Memphis are scratching their asses wondering what exactly did he do for us again..
When he first came to Memphis he had a beautiful AA girlfriend. She was a doctor. They became engaged and were supposed to get married. All of the news stations had them on television. Fast forward a few years later...where is the black girlfriend...no wedding...nothing. He decides to run for Senate. He had a lot of white political power behind him. The powers that be expected him to become the 1st AA president. The plan was to run for Congress, Senate, governor, then president. The republicans ran an add with a white woman and the Playboy mansion saying call me Harold. The general public didn't know that the commercial was very accurate. He loves the snow bunnies. Everyone in Nashville knew this information. After he loses the election for the senate seat he leaves Memphis and out comes the white girlfriend, now wife. They got married in Miami. Her stepdad is the former chairman of Morgan Stanley. He hasn't been seen in Memphis since he lost the election.
I love my city. However, some black people in Memphis vote according to your name...and the Ford name is HUGE in Memphis. Also, I believe that you should marry the person that you love, but don't use your own people so that you can gain national attention. The people of his district really needed his help, not to be a part of his political agenda.
*WOOO SAAAWWW* I have now stepped off of the soapbox.

Reply to this
Yes, I have. John F. has been a crok since forever. He thought that he was GOD. He has babies, and baby's mamas across not only TN, but a few other states as well. He acknowledges a few, but people in Nashville says that he has about 20 children. He always had a "bodyguard." This "bodyguard" looked like a pimp strolling through the lobby of the capital with dark purple Steve Harvey suits on. John didn't think that his sh*t stank....Now he's playing hide and seek in prison. He was indicted for other charges last week.

Thank you so much for the heads up about Harold Ford Jr. It answers a lot of questions about what happened to his political career. I once talked to a professor who taught Harold at Penn and the prof sang his praises and thought Harold walked on water. He especially talked up Harold's intelligence and thoughtfulness. Kind of sad that Harold's decided to give into his vices, like chasing after Playboy bunnies, instead of using his gifts to advance himself into a higher position of power and influence.

A friend who shall remain nameless told me a lot about this Ford, Jr., he loves the mansion and has put in time at the grotto and lets just say, what happens in the grotto, stays in the grotto. He literally chased those blonde bunnies down like a semi truck. He almost had his tongue hanging out of his mouth trying to get with as many bunnies as possible. He was a running partner of Dexter King who is an abuser behind closed doors, the rumors are out on Dex about abuse issues and non-black ladies. John Singleton is another one who is hyper at the mansion and Hype Williams thinks he is better than everyone else and those white people laugh behind his back and call him a ghetto video director.

Pleasant dreams and I'll catch you in the morning.

No problem Teina, That's just somebody with TOO much time on their hands. Besides, I will always clear anything concerning me quickly. I have been posting here for almost 2 years. So,if I was a multiple or trouble maker. It would have been revealed by now ? I'm no insider and I have nothing to hide ?

You're right Sheknows... Notice how the name is Anonymous...*giving the side eye to that poster*... We really don't need anymore shit starters! But rest assure, the staff usually deals accurately and swiftly with this sort of thing. They can't hide and be slick for too long.

Yes "anonymous" Once I spelled my "SheKnows" without the S, and they are both already in my PC's memory. You could have asked me that ???

Now about Nas...I understand him being offended about Fox's racist rants against US. They are a VERY racist news organization. However, they are allowed to be and do so. There's no way that their anchors and correspondents can continue to say the racist and insensitive remarks without the powers that be allowing and condoning it. There has been TOO many episodes for me to think otherwise...The media is tightly controlled that's all I'm going to say
Reply to this
Hmmm, that's a thought. Rumors are circulating that him and Kelis aren't doing too well.
Reply to this
I'm surprised Kelis didn't have his baby in all this time. Any borderline gold-digger knows that is step 1. What is she going to do for a living now?! ; )
Reply to this
Darling, all of Kelis free time is spent in S&M shops, shopping for the latest leather mask design to go along with her leather whips. She's not trying to have a baby, she's all about getting her sexual kinks and that's how she got Nas, through sex, she is a bonafide freak in bed from the stories I've heard. Nothing is off limits. She should have been a porn star.

Remember when they did an interview about mvoing "out" so the neighbors wouldn't hear their sex romps...lol. Now I will admit, my friends and I secretly have looked for their home because they moved to the same city I live in..lol

I believe it's in Stockbridge from what I've heard. My ex says that one of his trainers used to go to train Kelis at the house and she would have almost nothing on so he convinced her to train at the gym downtown instead coz he wasn't comfortable. Nas didn't seem to care even though she had only bootie shorts with her ass hanging out and a sportsbra....SMH.

okay I know I said I was going to bed - but I gotta put in my .2 - THEN, I'm going to turn in.
I was thinking this could either be Omar Epps or (I hate to even type this...) my man in my head - Boris K.
Nicole is kinda nutty over Boris - she keeps tabs on him constantly. She HAS to know where he's at at ALL times.
She's VERY insecure when it comes to their relationship.
That can wear thin after awhile.
Reply to this
scratch the Boris guess...
He's already been notted - good (I love him - he's dreamy!!)
Okay then I'm thinking O. Epps (B. Peele as the pretty but scandalous women)- He cheated on Sanaa w/Kiesha in the past.

Omar Epps...lord knows he can't keep it in his pants to save his life. and since he was on house he could have the $$ to have kept woman? just a thought in the dark.

AKA grandma2x'sgrandbabiesdaddy & tafka peterpiperlittlepecker...So what had happened was I thought I'd peep thru the past few BI's to try and catch up and I caught wind of all the multiple screen-name talk. Id like to say something real quick....A couple yrs ago I was a regular on a message board. I then was promoted to moderator of said message board. Said message board for reasons unknown to me got waaaaay out of hand. People were making death threats to other people, people were posting pictures of other people, posting addresses to where other people supposedly lived, and many other crazy things. The owner decided to give us the authority to ban screen names which was an authority we didn't have as moderators. That didn't work because the trouble makers would just sign up under a new screen name. The owner then decided to grant us the privilege of viewing ip addresses which we weren't able to do before in order to ban the ip addresses so these said posters couldn't re-register. That sort of worked but there was a problem...Several people had the same ip addresses...Ip addresses with an (s) a person could have replied 4 times in the same topic and had a different ip address each time they replied. But even worst several members all had the same ip addys. We were in shock. We as moderators began sending each other private messages and compiling list of those who had more than 1 screen name and then put them all on blast. Unbeknownst to us servers like aol sometimes provide the same blanket ip addy for many of their members in an attempt to prevent hacking and what not. So even though sally was posting from dallas texas and tyrone was posting from detroit,,,,their ip address led us to believe that they were the same person posting from Atlanta Georgia...And we called them out on it. That is until aol responded to our inquiry and set us straight. Now that didn't change the fact that several trouble makers had several screen names that they used to converse with themselves, reply to themselves, and even attack others, however I did learn that the ip game is sometimes very tricky. Even when we'd ban those ip addys of the people we were sure were trouble makers, theyd use software to change their ip addy and sign right back up (true story). Needless to say I resigned from my duties because the headache wasn't worth it, and said message board is still as crazy as it ever was.lol. Now I'm just sharing my experience. I'm sure everyone here knows what they are doing and so on and so forth. I'm not saying anybody is wrong or mistaken, and I don't argue nor fight online. It's just that reading through the past couple BI's gave me major flashbacks.
Alright my guess for this blind item is Terrence Howard. And as always a big good morning kiss (I'm sure they wont see it to morning) and a quick pinch on the booty (lol) to grandma, bulli, cat and the rest...

I wish I could find the post (but I'm too damn lazy)!

OT First time poster here! i've lurked for the best part of a year tho lol! Hello from London everyone!
I just received my copy of Italian Black Vogue.... and had to let off some steam.
i'm very disappointed as they have photos hoped the mouths and noses smaller on all the Models that grace the covers? They didn’t 'lighten' the models which is a blessing but still, Naomi is virtually unrecognisable!! What is the point in celebrating Black women then doing that?
Rant over.. no idea who this bloke might be (goes back to lurking)
Reply to this
I recognized her (Naomi) as soon as I saw her pics. I thought Steven Meisel did a great job photographing her. The pic with her on the pool table...is perfection.
P.S.I still think she does the meanest cat walk of all the models to ever walk the run ways. But that's just my opinion

doesnt she?? honestly, IMO, u cant name a badder "b"...i had the opportunity to meet naomi in person and alls i can say is that you have to see her in person..she is TRULY drop dead gorgeous..her skin is flawless, beautiful smile and she came across as really shy(til she had a few)..shes also VERY thin in person...flawless, nonetheless...and that walk is her everyday walk...shes so graceful yet fierce..

@alupinyobi
Fierce is the only word to describe that woman. I know she has her "diva" issues but she is my "idol". I tend not to idolize, but when she had to perform community service and the press was salivating, hoping to catch her looking messy, dirty, and "less than royal", she refused to give them the satisfaction. When she left on her last day, wearing a Versace gown, I was jumping up and down cheering.
Nothing but admiration for her "divatude" "divavinity" "divaness"
just love her.

Hi All,
If this is Omar Epps, he is a very busy man. Cheating on his wife with women and men as well, since he was a very popular guess as one of the men in a DL couple in TD’s book. Him and one of the Wayans brothers. Wasn’t there also some talk about Omar and Keisha participating in threeways back in the day and Eve’s name came up as a third party participant in their fun and games. I must admit that I did think that Keisha was the prettiest member of Total. Apparently Brandy and Keisha are good friends…saw pictures of them out shopping for baby things before Keisha gave birth.
Reply to this
hey badchick, how r u girl...i'd be surprised if omar epps was on the dl, i've never really gotten that vibe from him, seems all hetero to me. him and sanaa did make a cute couple though. u r right, brandy and keisha are good frenz
Reply to this
Which Blind Item was this does anyone remember? I would like to read it.
Reply to this
Omar and Mekhi's nickname in Hollywood is donkey kong and yes darling, we can assume the info about Keisha is correct because she was in that group with Pam. I wonder where is Pam now, passed out on the couch of a lesbian club trying to score? Heard they left Diddy and they were all broke. Pam always used her total status to try and pick up women.

I often wonder who else has she been with other than Nas, that the general public know about. I heard her headgame is Stupid Crazy.Graduate level.

Badchick: I believe it was Shawn Wayans. My hubby told me a story about Shawn and Omar was with him.
Reply to this
Hey badchick, I remember Omar and Marlon were "best friends" back in the day, but I didn't think they got down. From what I know Marlon is straight, his brother is DL (Shawn). He see Shawn all the time with pretty women but he doesn't look comfortable...like he's trying hard to be a manly, but it just isn't working for him. But hey what do I know, I don't hang with these cats on the regular but I do know them...If this is him he had me fooled. I thought he was really into his wife...
Reply to this
shawn is a queen and ive heard that marlon dibbles & dabble..the wayans men have always been suspect to me..they play women & gay roles a little too convincing..this is an old tidbit but did anyone know that marlon wayans was "smacked" in the face by naomi years ago over troy beyer??
Reply to this
Noooooo!....Marlon betta watch it - Naomi been kicking ass for a minute - wonder how many fights she's been in??
Reply to this
Honestly I think she just hasn't run into the right one. Drop her off near the hood, any real hood and let her throw her crackberry or Versace mule at someone and see what happens. She is inching real close on 40 and still cat fighting? Please there's nothing cute about that. Defending yourself yes, but just whooping on someone when you don't get ypur way, that's old. And mixing it up with the Po Po and airline security- that's asking for trouble.
Reply to this
Darling allup, I reported the Naomi incident a few blind item threads ago. Naomi was dating Troy, they were a big time lipstick lesbian couple and they were at a club, I heard a man was trying to come on to Troy, didn't know it was Marlon and I know Naomi beat Troy's ass in the parking lot of the club but I didn't know she smacked Marlon. Naomi should take on Lala Ali in the ring.

Ok, I'm glad to see that Paris gave the big "not" for Boris. Even though he's not my "forte" I would have been disappointed to know that he would step out on his wife like this. With that being said I like the Omar guess. I think he may have a lil' paper from the past couple of seasons of House. Even though Mekhi was a good guess too. But, (a)what has he done lately and (b) is he even married? I hope this isn't Larenz either. He's so cute, I would love to pick his little short self up and put him in my pocket. And for those whom said Morris, please stop. I swear my heart flutters whenever his name is mentioned. Ok, thank you all in advance.
With that being said, times for some shoutouts. Cyberhugs and kisses too: EVERYONE I just tried to name you guys, whew! I just can't name just one. **smooches**
Reply to this
I am a Larenz stan, so sad when he got married, but hope it's not him. I remember in the 90's he had guest roles on Family Matters and Fresh Prince of Belair and remebered him when he started appearing years later in movies. How I remember that, not sure.

GS you are always on it!!!! I had a feeling that Keisha got down with women too. I remember when she got those paw prints tatooed on her thigh and people were speculating that she was a lesbian because of the paw prints. I didn't get the vibe from that, but i just always felt that her and pam had somethiing extra going on. Shoot when Total first came out Pam was more manly and gangsta than puffy and biggie.

Keisha and Pam did have a relationship at one time. I think Kima was the only one who didn't get down like that. Remember when Pam tried to pass off her macho vibe as being a tomboy? Okey dokey.
Reply to this
Yep Yep, Pam down for tha ladies, they gotz to call her daddy in tha sack and when she used to perform wit total, she always grabbed a phantom nut sack. Pam love ma's hard. Real hard, She probably hitchiking to cali to take part in them gay weddings.

I knew it!!! Thanks for confirming! I always saw the dude deep down inside of her. One of my sisters was saying she was just tom-boyish and unattractive ? I was like Puh-leeeeze, LMAO!!! I could have sworn...I saw her grabbing her crotch in a performance before too.

SheKnows did you ever see the clip of Biggie and Total performing at the Apollo? There were a couple of times I thought Pam and Keisha were going to kiss right on stage the way they were up all up in each other's face.

When my sister describes a grown woman as a "tomboy" I immediately tell her to look deeper because no one over the age of 16 (sometimes a little younger) should still be holding on to boyish ways unless there's something else going on IMO. I apologize in advance if I offended anyone because I know there are some feminine lesbians as well

Also, looking on MediaFakeout this am I noticed a link featuring Fabolous, his babymama and his son. Thats hilarious b.cuz just the other day on the last B.I. we were talking about how u NEVER see Fabolous with a women...and now his family pics are on MTO.

rida, can we keep using being raped or abused as the reason why a grown a$$ women is acting out? A child, yes. But a GROWN a$$ woman? Not knowing that sleeping with someone elses husband is wrong? Or not realizing that we all have our wild sides but then we have to make adult decision, act like an adult and do adult things? If you feel you have to keep leaning on this in grown stages of life, then please get help. No, I have never been raped but there is too much information and people that will help you get through this. She can cry on my shoulder for a fee and as long as she doesn't try anything. Do we wait until the old timers and dementia really kick in, you're sitting on Sandra Roses lap and then want help because no one else will show you the time of day (not in my case)?
wookin per nub in all da wrong paces is right. ONLY IMO.

I won't downplay the significance of that situation and how it has effected her mentally and emotionally. However, I agree that her behavior stems from more than that. And if nothing else, she needs to think about her health.

WTF?? and now cats are laughing at her..plus shes on coke..SMH..GTGG has 99 problems and a d*ck aint one...

Nola I don't know what her problem is but I do honestly hope that she gets help. I make a lot of jokes about her but I do like her and I like the fact that she is one of the few somewhat successful black leading ladies that actually reflects a normal looking black lady (meaning not bi-racial etc.). Hearing about the drugs really saddens me because we've all seen how fast that road can drag someone down.
Reply to this
Hello Allup & GossipGirl~ I caught her on Oprah awhile back and she spoke as if she came from a good family and was brought up much better than what she displays now. That's why I was wondering what happened to her.
She also talked about her being raped and how she's overcome that. But just maybe it is something about Hollyweird that makes these people stone cold lose their every loving minds. This does seem like the normal behavior pattern in Hollyweird.

PR fam, the gorgeous one hates to inform you, she is really really out there, BET is not lying, I actually think his numbers are low if anything, this is just how bad she is sleeping around. Even randomly. If the drug rumors are true, this would explain her irrational and super reckless behavior. They are calling her the superhead of actresses. It's bad, real bad.

When Gabby was a teenager she was working at a store and a man came in and robbed the store and raped her. I don't know the statistics but I do know that sometimes people who have been raped will display erratic sexual behavior. That could be her way of dealing with it. Its a shame that she went through that and now is acting this way. She is a beautiful and talented actress. I hope she gets her ish together

If Gabby is going to be passing it around, I wish she would smarten up. Gabby, (Gabby's Rep) listen, Baby Girl. Get you a discreet Caucasian Millionare or Billionare. Be is bust-it-baby. Start learning another language so you will appear more international. Brush up on some current events and international affairs so you will be worldly. Learn about wines, single-malt scotch and cigars. Get yourself a first-class 'ho education. Then learn to perfect the freak. Keep it classy, Baby Girl. Most importantly, dine out, live and entertain on his money and stack yours. I just really want you to see that the pass-around chic ends up ugly and drug-addicted with a bad weave and unwanted gynecological problems. If you are going to sleep around anyway, class it up a little. Just some advice. LisaRaye tried to class her's up but she just ran into a 'ho bigger than herself.

There is too much out here for folks to be catching to be trying to get all you can get.
Now Lisaraye on the other hand, she was/is a ghetto freak, and she had her hustle working well, but she just couldn't get it all together for some reason. Ms. McCoy has never spent her own money...well at least not in some time...It's funny how women are fine with sleeping with a married man who has some paper or is taking care of them but are quick to say how men are no good and cannot be faithful....?

Tigress,
According to the psychs, the #1 reason for self-sabotage is a person not feeling worthy of the success/fortune/position that they have obtained. Gabby and Britney are walking down the same road. I actually had a major brush with this myself - 1989 accepted into MIT @ 16 years of age. By 1993 I was working in Dairy Queen trying to make ends meet. And I had a GREAT background - nuclear family, the whole 9. Somtimes you just can't tell. I will say this, right now Gabby = Britney. That is,
Britney before the recent DADDY Spears transformation process. Gabby mentioned something in the vein of not feeling worthy about 3 or 4 Essence issues ago. Britney spoke about not feeling worthy in that Barbara Walters interview a while back. I think the quote was "Even with all my sucess, I still feel people look at me like the hick from Louisiana".
Lesson: Foster self-esteem in your children as if their lives depend on it because they DO! People who don't feel they are worthy of good things will DESTROY the good that they have. And that's just sad...

I agree, self esteem is the key . In my oppinion children should be enrolled in a variety of activities . My mother try her best by involving me in a multitude of projects .
My self worth was formed during dance lessons with the legendary joan myers brown , i hated it then , but it built my character ! Whenever my self esteem lacks , as it does in everyone , i try to pull from a good disciplined place inside my soul.

Russell Simmons To Pay $40,000+ A Month In Child Support
Washington Post
Saturday, June 28, 2008:
Russell Simmons' divorce from Kimora Lee Simmons is gonna cost him a pretty penny in child support -- $480,000 per year to be exact.
In court documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday (June 24), it looks like the hip-hop mogul is to pay for each of his two daughters, Ming Lee and Aoki Lee, beginning in July.
Russell Simmons, 50, must pay $20,000 per child per month in child support, which stops when each reaches the age of 19 1/2 -- or until the daughter is married, emancipated, becomes self-supporting, joins the armed forces or stops living with her mother. Once they can drive, he's required to buy or lease a car valued at $60,000 or more for each of the girls . . . once every 24 months.
While Kimora maintains sole custody of the two children, Russell will get visitation rights. He will get his kids every eighth week from Saturday until the following Saturday when they are to be returned at 6:00 p.m., according to the documents, which will take place in Los Angeles, where Kimora resides. However, holidays, summers, and vacations, are also options.
Once reading through the documents, it's revealed that the $40,000 per month isn't the only thing he's responsible for either.
The couple's Saddle River, New Jersey home, which was featured on MTV's 'Cribs' in the past, has been put on the market, and Kimora will be able to occupy the residence until it sells. On top of that, Russell is told to fork out $18,000 for up-keep per month to Kimora until it is sold.
Later in the court documents, it says that Russell is responsible for providing Kimora with a vehicle every two years, valued at no less than $60,000.
Despite all the big money he has to shell out, he may seek a reduction in monthly payments if his income falls 30% below what he filed in his 2008 tax filing.
These child support payments will commence until 2019 for Ming Lee and 2022 for Aoki.

Now that's ri-damn-diculous. A kid just learning to drive doesn't need a $60,000 car! Even if I was a multi-millionaire, my kid would not be in a Mercedes or Jag, etc. You will not be flossin' like that on MY dime. Consider yourself blessed to have a Honda Civic!
Kimora is gonna see to it that those girls end up being the black Paris and Nicky. Damn shame.

You ain't lying. This all sounds like serious hush money to me dressed up like a divorce settlement. With all the smack Kiki talked about on her hubby as well as her own supposedly undercover habits, a good divorce attorney on his part could have stomped her out. Yeah russell is into cosmic energy and positive chi and all that, and he can indeed afford it, however i'm sure there are many more reasons why he is being so accomodating.

Kimora has the goods on russell..we've heard most of her dirt and nothing comes as a shock regarding her..but he definitely has more to lose..one thing is for certain, if im ever in need of a divorce atty, i want hers!!!

I dont think we are looking at him as being perfect. We are looking at him with hope, happiness and pride. That is where the emotions come in. He is doing something that has never been done in America before in all of the centuries America has been electing presidents. One would be dumb to think he is perfection. He is like any other man with faults and vices.

Hi GossipGirl, Sandra Rose is a real piece of work. I used to read her site but it was mostly for the photos, because I never trusted her journalism. She was ALWAYS hating on somebody especially Beyonce. But, Halle is a beautiful A-list celebrity... She probably ain't thinking about that wilderbeast...
Reply to this
I came to the conclusion when I saw her topic today about Halle is that she is doing saying offensive things to drive up her blog hits. I think we must have increased her hits the other day when we first spoke on her stupid rant about Halle.. She is a hater with dentures and she gets no love from me and no free marketing. On the other hand she pissed someone off real bad and at one point they had a site called sandra rose is a hater.
Please do NOT visit her site to even view the latest post about Halle.

Oh please!!! I've been boycotting her for a while now. You get tired of the negativity and her straight-up hating on people. It's obvious that she does not have a life because she's too busy kissing tiny and monica's butt who neither are doing too much of anything right now or even in the past. But, women like beyonce and halle who are ahead of the game she has to find any little thing that's wrong with them and try to put them on blast. SHE'S A HATER!!!!!

Can i talk about Sheri"the world is flat"Sheppard...today on the View she offered up a very tame excuse about her abortion quote and tried to justify it by saying she's was forgiven and that in heaven her babies will call her Mommy.Of course she blamed the mag for not publishing her full quote.
This chick needs media training in the worst way and i wouldn't be listening to Whoopi too often.CSI Crew get up on this....i saw a photo of SS cleaning BabaWawa's star on the Walk of Fame with a toothbrush,bucket and a copy of Audition...heard the Inquirer published it during Emmy week.If i knew how to post it,i would in a heart beat.I can hear the clock ticking on SS stint on that show...she's done and doesn't know it.
Congrats to Will"i am Legendary"Smith and Eddie"too many bad movies to keep track of"Murphy for being on Forbes 400 richest actors in Hwood.Will...$80m and Edwina...$55m....how u doin!

Hello OrangeKat! How are you today?
Taye doesn't need to brag about this. I don't know many people who care anyway. so you are right! *crickets on cue*
Now about Sheri...Don't ya think she looks better when she is quiet? She really needs to practice that looks and I promise no one will misquote her.
Will Smith has been doing it big for quite some time now. His 2 youngest kids are now acting. He is the man.
Edwina's movies haven't been good in awhile. He needs to retire now.

Hey Orange Kat,
I knew Sheri was going to backpaddle regarding what she said in that magazine. Even though she should have kept that to herself anyways cause its really between her and God regarding those abortions. She need to know what to say and what not to say. Which goes to what I was saying before about celebrities. You don't have to lie about anything. Like Beyonce' she don't comment on her personal life and she let the media know this. And she was still able to be successful. So it has nothing to do with how people may react if you are honest in the beginning. If you choose to say "well that's personal and I don't feel the need to comment on that", then leave it alone. I frankly could care less about what a celebrity does in their personal life, but if you are publicly acting a 'fool' than you get what you ask for.
And the top female actresses are the following:
The top 5 overpaid chicks in Hollywoodweird are:
1. Pizza Face Diaz - $50 million
2. Keira Knightley - $32 million
3. Jennifer Aniston - $27 million
4. Reese Witherspoon - $25 million
5. Fishsticks Paltrow - $25 million
No black female actress at the top. SMH! Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Anniston and MS Palrow didn't make any movies this past year that should have gotten them to make this type of money IMO. Love Resse, she is works hard for her parts and I respect she don't talk about her personal life either and look at what she is making. Seiously no black actresess in the top 5. I am going to do my research to see where we are at on this freakin list.
Reply to this
SMDH at no Black actresses in the top five.
Reply to this
I agree Sheri should have kept that business about the abortions to herself, but I guess she's just determined to expose the depth of her ignorance. It takes a special kind of fool to make Elizabeth Hasselbeck appear as if she actually has functioning brain cells.
As for the top 5 paid actresses, that list is pitiful, especially #3 and #5. Has Jennifer Aniston even had a hit? And except for 'Ironman' where she wasn't even the star, has Gwyneth made a movie in the last 5 years that made more than $5.00?

I have always thought black folks talk too much. Back in the early 2000's when I was hooked on VH1's behind the music, I was always kind of embarrassed the way blacks exposed too much. The story I remember most is when Missy Elliot talked about the rats that she use to see in her apartment. I remember SMH & thinking, damn.......why could she just say we were poor. I would watch the shows on my favorite white singers and they would often use the expression "poor" and that was it. They never gave narratives of rats, roaches, hookers & junkies outside. I know that Whoopi has told Sheri several times to take a deep breath before she speak cause sometimes Sheri would just blurt out $hit. Sheri is stupid & I don't see her on the View next year.
Reply to this
You know what, I think Sheri's "intelligence" works in her favor for the show. I think that a good majority of people like to watch people on a show that they feel they either as smart as or smarter than. How else can you explain Elizabeth's longevity? I don't see Sheri going any where.
Reply to this
I know Star Jones is not a popular person, but I strongly believed that Star's intelligence was only tolerated by her "co-hosts" and the audience as long as she remained obese. She was not as intimidating to them because they could always say "you may be a lawyer, black, pretty, and smart--but you are fat." Once she shed the weight, she was a little too black and uppity for Ms. Barbara Walters. I discounted my belief because I tend to be a bit of a conspiracy theorist...however, Sheri Sheppard has convinced me that I was right. They hired the dumbest black woman they could find--just the type they, and their audience, would feel comfortable with (read superior to).
Reply to this
CocoPeach, you read my mind. I was going to post about Star Jones, but I thought I would just let it ride. You are oh so correct about Star. As a matter of fact, when she got fired, they made note of the fact that her popularity had begin to slip with views from almost a year before ... which coincided with when she began to shed the majority of her weight.
Reply to this
after that tell-all, barbara needs to go and hide her head under a rock..IMO that book damaged her record as a solid journalist..that and rosie-gate, the two faced convos with trump, the entire star mess and elizabeths racist asss..and that theory is accurate..its no way they would have EVER seated two strong-willed, opionated black women at that table..whoopi is "safe" because they dont view her as a threat cosmetically..its no way star-an attorney-should have been surrounded by a dumb blonde, an un-funny redhead, and a snake like barbara walters for "discussions" regarding world affairs..and then they were angry when she spoke out about how they handled her..that was that nerve, right there..im not really a star fan but i respect her because shes very intelligent..and with that said, one has to wonder how they could seat someone as idiotic as sherri at the table where a bright woman like star sat..its political..thats why ive never watched that garbage..b walters is a no-good snake..
Reply to this
You summed it up perfectly. I'm not a Star fan either, but I always liked her opinions she shared on the show. And it was appalling to see that they replaced an Harvard grad with a moron like Sherry "who doesn't know the world is round" Shepard. But that's just my POV.

They wanted their fat black woman back at that table...

hi cocoa peach
i have to agree with you, It has been my experience that how you are hired is how they expect you to be . Fat intelligent black oppinionated woman was her claim to fame on the view.
I don't watch the view , but i get snippets from the blog. Deffinitly sherri even has a little bit of a resemblance to the heavier star .
They were in the wrong how they treated Star , and it was out for about 3 months she was going to be fired ... most people in the industry knew , Barbara hated Star ! She should have sued them , career suicide , but the money would have set her for life .
Reply to this
you maybe on to something there wonder....hmmmm
Reply to this
Darlings, I agree, Star was the white sterotypical looking black woman but as soon as she lost that weight, they all changed towards her. In the industry, it's a known fact, don't hire attractive black actresses who might upstage white actresses on popular shows. They're not many pretty black actresses on TV. They like the fat unattractive loud types. They run from sophisticated and intelligent black women. I hate that Nona Gaye beat out Elan for Law & Order Criminal Intent because Nona was fired into the season and Elan would have still been taping because she is professional, gorgeous and sophisticated but they went with Nona because she had a bigger resume.

I love the L&O shows. You're right, Sable, they definitely should have gone with Elan. What a wasted opportunity. SMH

well it seems going back to the old theory only one top black ... and the honor went to Will Smith .
What is funny though , is Will Smiths movies , have always been in the top 50 of Lee's all time world / domestic box office. He is there more than tom cruise .
I also think that is why Leonardo Dicaprio, keeps getting movie roles, as the titanic is the number 1 movie ...
Diaz will always make a lot of money if she keeps making movies because of the shrek series , i think shrek is number 3 on lees. kiera - pirates of the carribean . who i don't understand is ja ,fp, rw somebody in hollywood really wants them to be someone .
as far as reese good for her , but halle works hard to and actually produced some of her movie roles .Why can't Halle get paid more , everyone wants to be her , black / white . fishsticks and ja got to go . I don't really like any of thier movies ...
also see you like dlisted , mk is funny !!!

My question to Justin's ignorant rascist comment is when he said this why didn't these athletes and their families got up a left. I would not have continue to sit there at this awards program. Why couldn't they make a statement by showing this is not allowed? Its not funny. They just sat there in awe. Wow! No one left.
When Krammer was using the N-word at a freakin Comedy CLUB,people got up and left. Whites, blacks, whomever. They got up and left the club.
So if the ESPY awards is of such high importance and this racist made these types of 'jokes'(BTW, HE'S NOT A COMEDIAN)why didn't anyone leave? As quiet as it not keep most White Male americans don't care for Justin anyways. Just check the blogs they are always sonning him.

If you don't mind telling me in short, what did he say? I can't open that up here at the plantation.
Reply to this
Here ya go TAFKA.....
Pop music star Justin Timberlake hosted ESPN's 16th Annual ESPY Awards last Wednesday in Los Angeles, and the show aired on Sunday. The broadcast's 4-day tape delay was, apparently, for good reason. The show's editors got to exact their cutting-room tactics early on in the show, when Timberlake's monologue took an uncomfortably racial turn.
The gaffe occured as the host was teasing Paul Pierce about his "injured" knee in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, sports blog FanNation.com reports. In describing how Pierce quickly came back after being taken off on a wheelchair, Timberlake joked that Pierce was back on the court, "shucking and jiving." According to reports, the comment was met with silence from the audience.
The phrase has it's origins in slavery and is, to some, an offensive reference to the black person's historical subordinance to whites. Other's in the media have caught heat for using the phrase - which is widely misunderstood.
In May of 2007, Sacramento Bee sports writer Paul Gutierrez described boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. as having "shucked and jived" in a post-fight story. The writer later apologized.

Hello everyone! I've been a fan of this site for some time now, but this is my first time posting. I wanted to comment on the Justin Timberlake incident. That was a really stupid thing to say, I agree. He may be a racist, but I know one thing for sure. HE LOVES BLACK WOMEN! He has a thing for thick legs and big butts. Now I dont know if he's ever publicly dated a black girl, but I do know that he has. Especially during the Nsync days when no one was really checking for him.
Anyway, I met him a couple of times and he was really nice to me but he did ignore his fans a little. He wasnt rude or anything, but he stared at me from across the room during the ENTIRE encounter. He had all these girls in his face trying to talk to him, and he could not take his eyes off me. I'm not exaggerating. I had heard stories about how he loved the sistas but I didnt believe it til that day. By the way, I was the only black girl in the room. So I finally get up to go and talk to him and there's this girl standing there "attempting" to have a conversation with him. He literally waved this girl out of his way like he was telling her to move on. I was like WTF!!! This was during the time he was dating Britney Spears, or maybe I should say when they were denying it. In any event, his comments really shocked me because I thought he liked us too.
Reply to this
Hi ShesSuingMe....I don't doubt your story. I believe that he and Janet were seeing each other too. But one thing I have learned just because a white man wants to sleep with you doe not mean he is not racist. I come across it all the time in my line of work. Who you want to sleep with and how you view a race of people can be polar opposites in one person's mind. When I deal with out of town clients...I get hit on all the time but when it comes to getting to the bottom line and dealing with money they want to go over it with my white boss. So I can definitely see JT trying to hit u up and continually doing the ignorant things he gets away with towards Blacks.
Reply to this
Agreed bonita, like I said before, one of my friends worked for a guy married to a black woman and he harassed and wrote up all the black women under him. It's a case of being attracted to something you dislike. JT may like having sex and flirting with black women but he will never openly date one.

Also, once I submit a posting, must I scroll all the way back to the conversation, or does it always start at the beginning?

Terrence is trying to be a god, but not even a household name in his own household.

Regarding this Rick Ross mess... A lot of these so called street rappers ain't lived the life they call themselves telling, so i'm not surprised. However, I am somewhat alarmed that a few take this "keeping it real" nonsense sooo serious that they went and dug up old photos and documents to back up their claim he was a corrections officer. Really peoples? I hope your keeping as close an eye on your accountants, managers and other own biz as well. Running around renting luxury bags and buying blood diamonds to flash and appear blinged out. Your ALL actors. Play your part. And supposedly it was other rappers he ran with that started telling all his biz. SMH.
Reply to this
Hey Fashionista... You are right! A lot of these rappers weren't living the gansta life pre record deal. What bothers me is the message it send to the youth, in particular our black youth. Reciting and concentrating on every lyric like their lives depended on it. Almost like a minister and his bible verses. Quoting word for word.
Maybe because I am older and more mature I see nothing wrong with Rick having a legit job before he got in the game. But I guess it doesn't matter what I think, because it is all about "Keeping it Real". We have so many things poisoning our youth already. Sometimes, I cringe when I think about the future of our kids.

And to think that Rick Ross's grown ass is acting like having a job where you can use your government name is a bad thing. I just don't understand????

The absence of strong black male role models is really showing in a lot of our men's lives--including rappers.
If I may be so bold, and pardon my french, but some of them are on some straight *itch *hit!!!
Dripping in jewels, flashing designer labels, being catty behind each others backs and chasing more male tail than the ladies! These Negroes need to put on their big boy drawers and man the hell up! Not cute!
So what if the dude had a real job? Why on earth is he ashamed of this? Not that I condone it, but being in PR I can't help but try to spin it: He needs to say that Rick Ross is his alter ego, a composite of the many shady characters he encountered in his years as a corrections officer...blah, blah, blah. He's telling the stories of the many unfortunate souls who were once riding high due to their ill gotten gains, but are now paying the price. Why, Rick Ross's cd is a cautionary tale for those who believe drug dealing is the path to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow...blah...blah...blah.
To any of Rick Ross's handlers who may be lurking: you're welcome.

yeah, more than anything, i cant believe that he is still denying it..between the pics & the hr records it would be wise to just STFU..he had a chance to live it down by coming clean..the persistent lie is what is making him appear faker & faker..u just gotta ask yourself what kinda days we are living in when having a decent job is something to be ashamed of or deny..i fully understand that its not cool to be 5-0 in rap music and it contradicts his thug platform but it is what it is..why does everybody wanna be a doggone thug??? if these same folk REALLY had to live in the game, they would definitely understand that shit is real..its sad that he doesnt think enough of himself to be himself..SMH

Ya know, I just wanted to shed a little light on this "No Snitching" policy. It is a joke at best, if I ever heard one. I love to watch The first 48. Which comes on A&E TV. And for every murder that is solved it there are snitches telling the who, what, where, when, how and why to the Cops. Supposedly this applies to black and latina culture, but those are the ones that are telling. And it seems like this policy is slowly fading away. Thank God!
Reply to this
but this isnt really a "no snitching" incident, IMO...its just the truth and a lie..and being ashamed of being better..and just living in NO, no snitching is not optional but rather MANDATORY..u talk, u die..its just that simple here, unfortunately..case and point..a high profile murder case here ended with the defendant walking AFTER making a trigger finger motion towards one witness..TWO days later, he killed the witness that was in the car with the man that he murdered..he is STILL on the run..so "no snitching" is left up to the individual, IMO...
Reply to this
I understood that even more being from New Orleans, La. And the murder rate being thru the roof. But from what I've seeing in this parish and from watching cases on TV in other cities it seems to be getting a litter better.
New Orleans is off the chain and because of the crime, my family and I are having to make a tough decision about going home. Unfortunately I am related to one of those Cops arrested a few years ago. It's embarrassing, Especially when he was the "Top Dog" in the streets. He will rot in jail for all the murders he got others to commit. He was caught right after he ordered a hit on a female snitcher. So I understand the policy. Just hoping for the best, because we are killing ourselves at an alarming pace.

I love The First 48! I always find it interesting that as soon as something goes down, everybody and their momma is outside watching and looking. Half the time someone even calls the victims family members so they can haul tail and get down there. But no one wants to speak on the record about who did what. I can understand not wanting to be on camera and all that, but at least take a flier and tell them later. I also make it a point to have my brother watch it so he can see just how some folks will turn and kill you in an instant, because majority of the time it's someone that the victim knew. Ate at your kitchen table, went to school with, ran the street with, sat on the stoop with, and then one day due to a disagreement or petty envy decided you gotta go. Then when they cath the killers they either want to break down and cry, turn on each other and finger the other guy or they want to act hard and pretend they have no idea what your talking about.

Fresh Prince, lawd have mercy about Gabby, she has really has lost her mind. Everybody is referring to her as a big tim H, in Hollywood. Everyone is talking about her and I'm not talking about fans, I'm talking about other actors and actresses, terrible reputation.

Well that's good to know about Boris, but he never struck me as a rainbow child, and I've never heard anyone so... But, I recall someone saying that he was getting tired of Nicole calling him on the movies sets every 5 minutes, and that he had started cheating. That's why he was one of my guesses...

ahem, i witnessed boris with my own two eyes cheating on nicole right after the wedding...it was during essence fest one year..he was with GTGG...

Thanks for confirming that because, I can't remember who but somebody on here, was talking about his cheating on Nicole. I hate that because I was hoping he was a faithful one

(in a whisper) boris, if your cheating, caaaallll me before that girl (gabby) finds out.
Changed my mind, child support and alimony = not enough money for him/me.
Reply to this
She knows I'm sad to hear that, too. I also thought he was one of the faithful ones. And who's to say Nic doesn't know. But unless he's like Denzel barely keeping it in his pants and blatantly out there with his, then I doubt Nic is going anywhere. Nevertheless, I'm still surprised and I feel sorry for her.

Good Evening PR fam! I feel like it's the first day of school. I had great vacation and have just 10 days left of my internship so I am super psyched! I lurked a bit while I was away and was shocked/amused to discover I was having multiple conversations with the same d@mn person! WTF? Anyway, I should be used to that in my field, but at least in the real world I can read a schizophrenic type from a mile away.
I'm gonna have to piggyback on the Omar Epps train. I don't want to believe this is my pocket sized buddy Larenz. Fresh Prince, you hurt my soul with your info about him, but I appreciate you for it.
Special Shoutouts to OrangeKat (glad to see you're feeling better), SheKnow(s) lol, BlessedWoman, Hollyhood Reporter, pjsmommy (hope you are taking care of the little one and yourself), Pink Silk, and my sister from another mother Nalumali! I think the rest of my "friends" were unfortunately the same person.

Thanks PrettyPrincess. I was really sad for a minute...until my cousins started clowning me about my effed up cyberworld! lol I couldn't even lurk in peace at their house...the nerve of people to actually want to use their own PC when I had a multiple personality disorder playing out on PR!

Just don't piss SPYMASTER off because he will put you on blast and shut you down. LOL
P.S. my family is the same way. My bf stays mad at me because he's like "you are always on that website." And i'm like "mind your damn business

I also work in social services and used to work with children/adolescents with emotional disturbances. That poster rivaled some of my favorite students, but I'm not mad at her because "most" of her handles were nice to me when I first started posting.
I'm not trying to piss off entybody! I am allergic to drama and would "out" myself before I let someone else do it.
I can't read PR when others are around, I often get caught not paying attention during phone conversations. lmao As long as I don't call my man by a poster's name I'm cool...I hide my addiction from him as much as possible because he would NEVER let me live it down.

Not to make too light of the situation...that was still funny...all of my friends were the same person-LOL.

My brain is too dang fried to keep up with multiple personalities, occupations, and locations. I have enough trouble not repeating clothes after I've been to the laundry...I swear I wore the same shirt to work 2 weeks in a row because I didn't remember I'd worn it the day before I went to wash. lmao I had this strange sense of deja vu when I looked in the mirror at work, like "didn't I just have this on?"

Hey Lit/Lauryn! I wasn't really psyched about turning 30 until I knew I could do a month long road trip. I've felt like a "real adult" forever...the only time I'm a kid is when I'm hanging around folks children. I had a week and a half to act a fool with my cousins' children and they wore me out! Best birth control EVER, but I love them.
Reply to this
Tell us the "general time" and we'll have o have a cyber party to celebrate and of course you should do something big also. It wasn't so much the feeling like an adult for it was the not feeling so rushed...just chilling a bit to let time be time. Giving myself more permission to say, that's not as important & I am not going to freak out (as much) over that (this time) releasing control all the while remaining in control.

LOL I figured, what the heck? You only turn 30 once and I'm not a party/club type of person, so I had to find a way to make it count! All of my close/best friends are within a year of me, so we've all hit the big number together and I got to visit with all of them. I'm special though, because I'm the only summer baby, they're all Fall babies.
I'm glad I have a few cyber friends left!

Hi Sin7!
I'm 27, so I have a few years before I reach that 'other' age, but it's nice to know it isn't the end of the world, lol. My friends and I haven't been taking it too well. One friend makes countless appointments with her Mary Kay lady, to combat crows feet before they start.
As for myself, I guess I'm a "Miss" and a "Ma'am" now? wow. I was called "Miss" 8, yup, I counted, 8 times in one day. My cousin told me I will grow to like it and embrace it...yeah, we will see about that, lol.
Then the next day, I'll get mistaken for a teenager??
My clock is starting to tick though. Now I understand what people mean when they say that.

Hi Pink Silk!
I feel like every birthday after 23 ran together into an unrecognizable blob of time! I started my first Master's program the day before my 27th birthday and the three years it took to finish my second flew by. I swear it's like I blinked and I was 30!
My clock was ticking up until my vacation, but it's been wound up again! lmao

OFF TOPIC
well, i have a new job where i work flex hours. so since my work hours are not rigid, i have decided to kick start learning other languages again...
i am not "fluent" in any languages per se, but i can "piece" spanish togther here and there. now i know that one of the best ways to learn a language is to learn from someone native to that language or hell if you could spend a year there. i have friends in the latin world to assist with my spanish. anyway...
has anyone studied the "rosetta stone" system of learning other languages? was it effective for you?
i am very interested in purchasing the spanish, french and german editions for my personal investment. it's very expensive, but i would make the sacrifice. or are there other systems just as good and less expensive.

There's no better experience than a social setting, online classes are pretty good but conversational language courses in class are best.

i like the fact that this particular program is interactive, and not just throwing a list of words at you.

^^^^ Hey SouthernGirl........ I've never studied the Rosetta Stone, but I thought that was more Egyptian. I'm sure I just might be confused. Don't laugh, but I'm a PBS junkie. You might be able to find some type of documentary they've done, or even go on the website at pbs.org.
They have a great series called American Experience where they highlighted Zora Neal Hurston and Marvin Gaye. I'm sure you can find something on the Rosetta Stone.
And hey, at least you can "piece" together es span ol. The most I can do is nod my head and do like Heathcliff Huxtable used to do when Claire would go off in Spanish. Cliff would just stand there with his mouth wife open and say..... "I'm just waiting to hear my name."

HI Guys,
O/T: I heard that the young man that played Telma Hopkins's son on the tv show Family Matters and now plays Devon on the Y&R is DL. I was a little surprised to hear that. I think he grew into a cute little youngun. I don't know if there are any soap fans out (I catch them once in a blue moon), but what from I understand daytime soaps are rife with DL actors and actresses. I also heard that Victoria Rowell would like to come back to Y&R, don't know true it is. They don't seem to eager to have her back if that's the case. I caught Eva Pigford's peformance on Y&R one day and IMO she's not half bad. I read she is catching on with fans and they think she might be a viable love interest for Kristoff St. John.
Reply to this
i wonder if rowell left wrong? burned bridges and now she is trying to cross over them.
i do know that it was said through gossip that the producers did not want to allow her to write on the show. i would love to know what was the deal.
i hope eva works out and that she strives to be and remain a professional.
Reply to this
I remember hearing about her wanting to write as well and I think that is at least partially why she left. My understanding was that she wasn't feeling the way Drucilla was being written by the then-writers. I know Eric Braeden (Victor) said in an interview early this year that he was very unhappy with the writing of his character as well; apparently there was a LOT of unhappiness with the former exec producer/head writer, even leading to a an online fan petition to get her out of there.
That EP (and several members of her writing staff) were just fired around February or March. So that may have had a lot to do with it, but now it may be a matter of having a brand new staff that has never worked with Victoria before and are concentrating on storylines where there just isn't room for her return. That's a shame as she was always one of my favorite characters on any soap...says the chick who hasn't actually watched a full episode of any soap in two or three years.
Jumping subjects a bit: someone told me there are a lot of scientologists on Y&R too, at the time she could only recall Sharon Case (Sharon) and Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) off the top of her head. That surprised me for some reason, though it probably shouldn't have. And I'll probably never get a chance to see her on there, but I do hope things work out for Eva. I can see her and Kristoff having good chemistry on-screen.
Reply to this
i hope eva works out and that she strives to be and remain a professional.
^^ You know what, I hope so too. I was a Davetta Sherwood fan, but I also remember Happy saying that she was a b!tch behind the scenes, and the cast hated her. I hope Eva does good work in front of and behind the camera because I do think that it's a quality soap opera. I still have my fantasy of writing one some day
Reply to this
Devon is her son in real life? Learned something new. I haven't heard anything about him being DL but I did suspect that. I think he's the new Shemar Moore on Y& R because yeah, I don't think Shemar is coming back, ever, lol.
There was this poster by the name of Happy who worked behind the scences at Y&R and she said that Victoria Rowell was supposed to be coming back. I hope so.
I could see Eva's character being with Kristoff.
Reply to this
No I don't think Bryton McClue (Devon) is Telma's son in real life. He played her son Ritchie on Family Matters. For soap fans, particulary Y&R, I also heard that Michael Grazeadei (Daniel), Greg Rikkart (Kevin), and Christian LeBlanc (Michael) are all gay. Apparently Adrienne Frantz is the "Gabby" of the Y&R set and the B&B when she wason that show. She supposedly gets it poppin behind the scenes. I think Michelle Stafford (Phyllis) might be DL to because she always accompanies Christian LeBlanc to events and awards show as his "date" and they are apparently close friends. From what I understand, there are so many DL men and women and affairs going on between co-stars on the daytime soaps.
Reply to this
Michael Grazeadei is kinda cute, but he was also on my radar, lol.
So Frantz is the "Gabby" of the set? lol, I can believe that.
Did you ever hear that Shemar dated Sharon in real life?
I never noticed Michelle Stafford being a beard for LeBlanc. I'll keep an eye on that. I was on a Y&R site and I was surprised that she has so many fans. I guess she's evil with a heart, lol
I've always said that if I had a soap, I would hire Robin Givens to play evil, and someone mentioned Omarosa. I know she was voted tv's best villain, but evil characters also have sex appeal, and I don't think she pulls that off. But who knows, I never thought Stafford had sex appeal, but fans love her.

I wish I could tell you. The problem is the thread was not about Cashmere, but Lit shared the story on one of the BI threads. I think either in May or June. Unless someone can remember which thread it was, you would need to go through the BI's from May & June and use the control feature with the word cashmere to find it. It has to be true cause you just can't make up funny stories like this. If you find it, please let the board know because people have asked a lot about it bec we refer back to it.
Reply to this
Hey eye.. yes I am not impressed with Vista.. but Myra swears by Mac so I went and bought one but I cannot live without windows so my friend is walking me through how to install XP on my MAC... I have no idea what thread cashmere is on..
So today I went to court to have something signed by one of the judges.. I'm sitting in the back because there is a hearing going on.. so this young white lawyer has his client on the stand.. a young black guy.. so the Mr. lawyer starts asking the client questions and he's like so on the day in question how many of your acquaintances were with you.. client gives the blank star.. he's like how many what?? so Mr. Lawyer says.. your acquaintances how many did you have with you.. client says Sir I don't have any acquaintances.. I don't eve know what that is.. so I'm in the back just smirking.. so Mr. Lawyer decides to try a different approach.. so he says sir I need to know what associates were with you that day.. (now a lot of law firms are title.. Blah Blah and Associates) so the kid on the stand says.. Sir no one from your office was with me.. So now Mr. Lawyer is very frustrated and he's like Sir I mean your associates.. how many were with you ?? (by now I am in full out giggle in the back of court)
Now the client gets indignant because he thinks Mr. Lawyer is messing up.. so he says look I paid you to represent me after I got arrested.. I ain't have no associates...
Finally the judge intervenes and says..hold up Mr. Lawyer I got this.. the judge looks at the kid and he's like.. were your peeps with you that day.. and the kid is like Oh yeah.. D-bo, Lil Man and Rocky were in my car.. OMG I died laughing.. and Mr. Lawyer blushed bright red.. whew!!
So when they were leaving court the client says to Mr. lawyer .. many you need to learn to speak English cause I didn't know what the hell you were talking about...ROFLMAO
Reply to this
LMAO!!! Damn Mr.Lawyer just didn't get it... The kid needed him to speak Hood-Terminology! That boy didn't understand those big words, LOL... That's similar to you having to get colored-markers for Lil (ya heard me )Wayne...Lawd help some of our black youth LMAO!

The classic "Cashmere" post
litigating wrote:
Okay O/T since this BI has us stumped can we take a brief intermission why I tell you what happened to me today ?? So I was at the courthouse when a colleague called me and asked me to stand in for him. So he tells me the client is charged with prostitution and to ask for Cashmere when I get there.
So I walk into the courtroom and say Cashmere.. is Cashmere here.. this 6 foot 4 inch tranny starts walking towards me... okay color me silly cause it still didn't occur to me that this was Cashmere so I'm turning to leave and check the hallway for "her" . Anyway I put my hand on the door to leave, and then I feel this heavy hand land on my back and "shim says" You looking for me, I'm cashmere... now if that don't beat all.. old boy has a mouth full of gold teeth and tats. And he's wearing a lil Kimesque outfit with his belly out in court... anyway I tried to maintain my professionalism and so I shake his hand and introduce myself.

I know I’m late with my responds but the first person to come to mind was Boris. He’s too sexy & alive to be tied down to one woman with two kiddies but like some one said….he tried!
Where are all my Barack Obama supporters at, Myra, Paris no gossip on them? You have the scoop on everybody else, why not the Obama’s??? Are you guys going to the convention in Denver???
We are going to need to know what went down and will rely on the two of you oh and the gorgeous one too and the regular csi crew to fill us all in.
I haven’t been in here for a while so forgive me if Ive missed the archives of the Obamas’ I’m going back to lookin’.

Boris was notted way up top. And what do you mean by tied down to a woman with two kiddies? They are his kids too. You're wording like she had those kids by another man or something.

I cosign that one! It's like saying that a father has to stay home to "babysit"! No, he stays home to watch his children! JMHO

AMEN! When I have the kids by myself, I'm not babysitting & I get pissed when someone asks me if my husband is @ home babysitting. I tell them "Hell no, he's @ home with the kids. You can't babysit your own kids!" Sorry guys, but that pushes my buttons.

This reminds me of that female DJ who was at the beat radio station in L.A., her name was Diane Steele, she loved black men, she was a white chick and she married this black trainer, while she was on air, he was on the internet at home, finding women to have sex with and was going in Diane's account, sending the women money. She found out later that he had 2 kids outside their marriage, he was a so called personal trainer who tried to meet women in the gym. Women were even calling her at the station saying, your hubby let me drive your benz, it rides so smooth, who is your mechanic. She had a son with him before she divorced him and someone told me she wanted to go on vacation and asked him to watch their son and he wanted a babysitting fee.
Reply to this
I remember when my ex hubby would tell me that he was not babysitting whenever I wanted to go anywhere. I damn near went psycho on his ass for saying something stupid like that. How do you figure you are babysitting when it's your own damn kids? The funny thing is my oldest was old enough to watch his younger sisters so therefore I really did not need my ex watching the kids any way. Now he's always calling asking when are the kids coming over??? Why....you feel like being a babysitter now?? Crazy mutha.....
Reply to this
Oooh, calm down Ms. Terri. LMAO! It's gonna be alright. He really pissed you off and now he wants to be with the kids. I do understand your feelings. Just don't have a heart attack, Dear.

Wow- Will Smith made 80 million from June 07-June 08 according to Forbes. And people are wondering why some of the "secrets" are coming to light? With that type of income and movies with good buzz, I guess he can truly say what he likes, where is Jada going?

Will had did an interview before promoting his last movie and he mentioned that divorce is not an option. He said divorce is not on the table and the was settled before they decided to get married. He said they they will hashed it out until both of them are in agreement, but there won't be a divorce.

Happy Thursday Everyone!!!
Ok fam, yesterday was a C-R-A-Z-Y day! Besides the fact that the internet service was down for 3 freaking hours. The machine here caught on fire. I'm sitting here minding my own little business (PR, tee hee) when my co-workers run up from the back, like, do you smell that? Im like no, what, and no faster than that this funky smell just consumes the office. Come to find out the computer in the x-ray machine went kaput. So, therefore that ended my day on a early note. That was crazy!!
But here's hoping that everyone has a great day, and myself a non-interrupted one!

HELP ME PLEASE !!! Calling all computer professionals, nerd, geeks, whatever.. okay so I bought a Mac but I have to have windows on it.. my friend burned me a copy of Windows XP.. she can't find her original disc and it is prompting me for a product key.. is the product key somewhere on the disc?? Do I have to buy another license.. what's the deal ??
Reply to this
should be on the laptop - label
Reply to this
The product key number is used to register the XP operating system. If you don't have it, you won't be able to install XP. I have one that I used to register my XP operating system. I can email you a product key number, if you can't get one from your friend.
Reply to this
Product label or receipt. If you still can't find it, call MAC tech support, they will tell you exactly where it is, since it's a new purchase, the tech support is free for 6 months or a year.
Reply to this
You stated that the version of windows xp that you got was burned from a xp CD. Unless the license was a volume license (More than one copy) it will not allow you to install it. Starting with XP Microsoft put in controls to stop people from installing the software on more than one machine. If you happen to have the license number and it is not going through when you enter it then you can call the 1-800 number that comes up (in the activate windows screen) and they will give you another number. However they ask you for the number that you are trying to use and if it is found to have been used before there is a chance you could get in trouble for trying to pirate the software.

hi lit
just take it back and have them install xp for you ... the copy you will need the product key , your friend should be able to find it on her computer , by using product key , or check out this video

Hi Guys,
O/T: What do we know about Larenz Tate? I think he's a cutie, definitely the cutest out of the three brothers. I know he got married not too long ago and has a child. Do we know who he dated prior to that? I was just looking at old pictures of him from past events and he is only pictured with one or both of his brothers. Did he date any of the black actresses he starred with?
Also, where has Tommy Davidson been hiding. He's been real quiet lately. I know he did the voice of the father on the Proud Family. Anyone know what he's been up to?
Reply to this
I just read back through the posts and found a couple addressing Larenz and his possible DL status. Sorry for the retread so are we yay or nay on his DL status? In any case, he is still a cutie!

He dated Halle Berry

Thanks for the responses to my post everyone. I didn't know that Tommy Davidson had drug problems. That's sad.
Looks like we are swinging more to the Yay side of the Larenz Tate DL question. Looking at pictures of him when he first came out definitely swing my vote to the yay side but what do I know. He's still a cutie...LOL

morning PR...i just saw pics of LL's son and looks like he is the next bobbi kristina..he is photographed with weed & beer...i think this is sad..his dad has made alot of money and most parents do what they do to give their kids a better life..this has to be very disappointing for his parents..wonder if this is a case of "spoiled brat"?? **ponders**
Reply to this
The truth about children is they are within the home and know what is going on with their parents. Some parents think children don't know, but they do. If LL is disrespecting his wife, the mother of his children, by beating her and on the DL, then this is not surprising. I have stated this before, you will see a lot more of these celebrity's children venting in one form or another. But you must also remember there are parents that do set a very good example for their children but they can't control them, its peer pressure(internet,music, videos,magazines,etc) rather you rich or poor. Most children test the waters and learn not to just jump in, but others jump in and sadly drown. Celebrities may hide their true selves from the public but behind closed doors these kids are exposed to the truth and it does effect them in either negative or a positive manner. As a parent myself, I know I can do what I want cause I am an adult, but I dont. ? It may effect my daughter cause she's a child and she may not fully understand certain things and I won't force her too. If I am going to date someone they can't come to my home, and this is not an option. Even though she's a child this is her home too and I know that I am her role model first and I take pride in that.

Reply to this
Supercent, very well put...Children often imitate what they see and hear from their parents. Maybe b/c we are all out paper-chasing...leaving our children home to watch BET, play video games, and play on the internet, hoping that these options will entertain and educate our children. While I do not have any children of my own, I have seen my friend's and family's kids "act out" b/c they were not getting the attention they felt they deserve at home. I do understand that you cannot shield your children from all of life's ills but as a parent, mentor, educator or whatever, we need to filter a lot of the BS that is coming into the home. Children will often do only what you (parents) let them get away with. We need to teach our youth about responsibility and being held accountable for your actions. I am really concerned with the direction these kids are taking. They are doing this at 12 and 13 years old that I didn't do until my 20s....Maybe it's b/c I had both parents in the home or I was just scared to death of my parents!! These kids are not being disciplined at home, and before I piss anyone off I don't mean beat the living daylights out of them either. I mean most of us got a good whoopin or two and for the most part we came out just fine right? We as kids we taught to respect our elders, and never talk down to them. We learned the importance of getting a quality education...A teacher can only give you the lesson for the day...A parent can give a child the support and positive self-esteem he or she needs to be all that he or she can be. I guess what I'm trying to say is we can't blame these kids for being bad when the parents are out being worse...It's time for men to be a father to their children and stop being a bady daddy, and women need to spend quality time with their kids and stop hanging out trying to act like they don't have responsibilities at home....Let's get it together people!! Okay I'm done.....I hope I didn't offend anyone, this was not my intent.

@ The Fresh Prince of PR (aka Soulful_brotha)
You are correct. Before I had my daughter I use to always questioned my friends with children as to why they allow different men around their children. Do you truely know this person well enough to have them in the same home as your children? Most of these cats they wasn't trying to really be wtih serioulsy. Then next thing you know they are fighting in front of their kids with someone for the moment. SMH! I could never understand that. Very sadly I know quite a few women like this, in my family as well. And we were left to raise their children cause they were too busy with their own selfish lives. Maybe they should have thought about this before they decided to have three, four, five kids.
I had a friend, who was going through hard times. She asked me to move in with her. I had to tell her NO. First, I don't need a roommate. But I didn't say that. I just let her know our lifestyles are different. She has a 13 year old son, whom she allows to listen to any type of rap music. My daugther is 9 and I don't. She has more then one man she's dating and coming to her home after dark. And I don't. I work at home, so I am up at 5am. It would have definitely ruined our friendship. Then she had said something that struck a nerve in me. She was like 'I understand cause I am a screamer'. Yes she did. And she know I didn't want to know that. I am thinking isn't your young son in the house. SMDH! Since then we haven't talk cause I know deep down she upset. Bue in reality do I really want a friend that thinks so selfishly.But i know I made the right decision. No I am no by means perfect and nor do i think I have all the answers. But I refuse to just Billy, Joe, Jermaine, and God knows who else around my daugher.
I was talking to this guy that I met. He was asking if we can go out to dinner, movie, etc and then end up at my house. I was like I don't allow anyone at my home, unless I have been knowing you for some years. As of now the only ones I allow at my home are SOME family members and my daughter's father. My daughter's father can't spend the night, were not together anyways and he can't be hanging here all night. His response was 'So you let your child run your house'. Of course, I tried to stay as composed as possible. I quickly responded to him by saying STFU, you don't know me and you don't pay any bills in my house. I allow who I want when I want whenever I feel like it. But unlike most of the females you may have come across, I don't allow strangers in my home unless he is a potential husband. My child is very important to me and this is her home as well. I don't know you and after this conversation I don't want to know you. Have a good life. He tried to call me several million times later. Didn't answer call, finally got the clue.

*clapping loudly* Supercent, clearly you have your priorities in order. Kudos to you for being mindful of the environment you allow your child to live in. Not to mention, your child will see and emulate her life to the same moral standards.

Great story SuperCent. Too bad most young (and older) women don't carry themselves in this manner. My husband was telling me last week about one of his friends who is dating a new girl. While we were talking he mentioned that this girl has a 3 year old that his friend has already met. I'm looking at him like WTF??? She doesn't know if your friend is a child rapist, ax muderer, etc (he's not but she doesn't know that). I really wonder when it became acceptable that we lose respect for ourselves. If there is no self respect or self pride then our children don't stand a chance.
Reply to this
You know Ms Coleman, that's what scares the living crap out of me. I had to adjust my whole life. I had years to party, hang out for days at a time, and do whatever before I had her. I feel now that I am not missing anything. But I am a parent. I knew what I had to do before I had her. I know how I am and I don't want some maniac coming to my door cause I won't return his calls or I no longer want to 'be with him'. This is a crazy world as it is and I want to keep it out of my home as much as possible. I was this way when I use to take care of my nephews and neices. I don't have people that I don't know personally around them. I mean I know where they work, live, children, etc. Some parents feel they don't need to respect their kids and that has nothing to do with them being an adult.
What makes it worse is that I have gotten a lot of slack for being this way. It like well that's not a gurantee your child will be safe. So am I suppose to throw her to the wolves???? Am I not suppose to protect her to the best of my ability? I am by no means overbearing, but I am careful. As well I should be.
Reply to this
I am the same way. I am very careful with my son. I have to know the parents, the children, visited the home on more than one occasion myself, etc. I'm a friendly person and there are parents at my child's school that I talk to often in a school setting but if I don't know you outside of that setting don't even ask about playdates with my child and don't think you're gonna drop your child off at my house either. The last thing I need is for some child to go home with a new bruise (or old bruise that hadn't been seen by the parent) and start telling stories. I understand the thing about you getting a lot of slack because I do as well. Oh well! Those same people who are giving me slack have a life full of unnessessary drama as I glide thru my life. Keep being a stand up woman and a good mom to the young woman in your house.

I had a friend who met someone on the internet , and she allowed this man in her life with her child , even gave up some of the time with her child to be with this man . While i tried to warn her to be careful , she did not heed my advice , man is gone , on to the next internet hookup ..
I don't get it , why allow your child around so many different men ... these men don't care about your child , hell he doesn't even know if he cares about you .
Some women & men are trifling when it comes to thier kids . They treat them like objects , not human beings !
Kudos to you Supercent

I heard a story about a woman who met a man on the internet. They agreed to meet. When they met, he pretty much ignored are and all of his attention went to her two sons. The weekend he stayed with her, he played video games with her sons and was way too attentive, even wrestled with them, watched cartoons, etc. Before he left, he hugged those boys tightly and barely muttered bye to her. I think he targeted single mothers on the internet and he was a pedo but she told people he was never left alone with her boys.
Reply to this
Thanks PR family, I know most of you would understand where I am coming from. Instead of some of my friends trying to give me the side-eye. Knowing good dam well I was like this when I didn't have her. So what's the problem. Yeah I was a PARTY GIRL, I went to ALL the parties, every freakin day of the week. But I didn't have a child. Even though I partied I still made time for my nephews and neices. At times I didn't hang out with my friends cause I had to watch them cause their parents was being trif. SMH! I make sure my daughter understands and I always give her examples, newspaper/magazines articles, blogs. So she ok with it and she knows I love her with all of my heart.
Ok I had this co-worker who was a man hunter. She didn't care where she found a man she was going to find one. I didn't really know her personally because she didn't like me. And I am too embarrass to let you guys know why? Anyways she was a friend of a friend. She met two men online. The first on she took to the company picnic. Yes the company picnic. Had just met him 2 weeks prior to the event. She came to work one day and her daughter called her it was an emergency call. She had to rushed home. When her daughter got home, the house was robbed, not signs of forced entry. Well the police help her to figured out it was him. And she couldn't give them too much information cause she didn't know anything about him besides what he had on the internet which was false. Then she met another dude who had just gotten out of prison. As a matter of fact, he was in/out of prison. She married him within 3 months I think, maybe less. He convinced her to move to Arkansas with his family.
They moved to some hick town in Arkansas. She transfered which was the only smart thing she did. They started having marital problems and he ended back in jail for 10 years. Now she' back here. Oh yeah, her daughter was 11 years old at the time.
