National Museum of African American History and Culture


There is an African American museum coming to DC...

This from BlackVoices:

"Smithsonian Institution jury selected the team Freelon Adjaye Bond, in association with SmithGroup, from six finalists in a design competition to build the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

The crown concept, which would allow natural light to flow into the structure through bronze screens, was inspired by images from African and American history, Adjaye said, "this idea of uplifted praise sort of imagery."

The design process will take up to three years and is subject to approval from groups that oversee architecture in the nation's capital. Construction is expected to begin in 2012, with an opening slated for 2015."
This is great news. Click here to read the whole story.

Cassie Goes Half and Half


This picture is from TMZ. I absolutely hate this hairstyle on her. I have no idea why she chose to do it. It's ridiculous. When she twittered this Saturday and showed the pics, my first thought was why? My second thought was...this has Diddy written all over it. SMH.

Cassie's a beautiful girl, but somehow this just seems like a very orchestrated, publicity stunt or peer pressure from the "bosses" to change her image. I mean, it's not like she came out with the punk rocker steez and that's her gimmick. She's a love song, Pop/R&B singer. Is she just going to switch up her whole style now? What about when she wears dresses or wants to put her hair in a ponytail? ...lol...The more important question is when did punk become the new hip-hop/R&B? Everyone is tryin to get on it nowadays. Shame.

These type of hairstyles are not equal opportunity. Thoughts?

Operation Sexy: Still in Effect



Has anyone seen Mel B lately??? Oh my god! Aside from being on all the gossip blogs about her new found exericse program, she is the much needed motivation for the summer!!! I've been on a 90 day get in shape kick, which started a couple weeks back, and this was just he motivation I needed to keep it truckin! Can't wait to hit the treadmill and the eliptical machine for some good cardio! And then P90x it when I get home...

Hater Happenings: Glenn Beck & Fox News


A conspiracist killed three officers because he thought Obama was going to take away his guns and the end of the world was near... From Media Matters.com:

"After a night of drinking, followed by an early-morning argument with his mother, with whom he shared a Pittsburgh apartment, 22-year-old Richard Poplawski put on a bulletproof vest, grabbed his guns, including an AK-47 rifle, and waited for the police to respond to the domestic disturbance call his mother had placed. When two officers arrived at the front door, Poplawski shot them both in the head, and then killed another officer who tried to rescue his colleagues.

In the wake of the bloodbath, we learned that Poplawski was something of a conspiracy nut who embraced dark, radical rhetoric about America. He was convinced the government wanted to take away his guns, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. Specifically, Poplawski, as one friend described it, feared "the Obama gun ban that's on the way" and "didn't like our rights being infringed upon." (FYI, there is no Obama gun ban in the works.) The same friend said the shooter feared America was "going to see the end of our times."

This is from Eric Boehlert's story entitled: Glenn Beck and the rise of Fox News' militia media.
Please read the full story HERE.

This was another tragedy that happened recently because of the hatred that Glenn Beck and other FOX news "analysts" have been spewing. This kind of shit is horrible and very similar to the Adkisson church-shooting case in Knoxville, Tennessee. When will these tv personalities realize that words really matter. SMH.


Chilli: New Spokeswoman for Dasani


In my 90 day get my sexy back gym kick, I've been drinking ALOT of water... in hopes of my skin looking like this!! Chilli, who NEVER ages, is the new spokeswoman for Dasani water. I swear she looks the same way she did when TLC first came out years ago.

Mind you she rarely wears makeup, and I'm sure whatever she has on is very light.

Wow. The recession is real. King Magazine doesn't have the funds to keep their magazine going. Their last issue is April 21st.


Are you upset the magazine is ending? Or do you think their will be another "King" type magazine on the shelfs soon?
And what about the way the King portrays women? Maybe it's not so bad to do away with the mag...thoughts?
