That Black Girl Site : The Reappearance of Miss Lauryn Hill

Wed, 21 Apr 2010 18:19:23 +0000

I for one am really hoping for a Lauryn Renaissance and praying that she come back stronger than Whitney Houston did. Every news report of her tour gets me even more worried. But back to Miss Hill, I have never seen her look better. And one really can't fake that. And her music is definitely exceptional and I think a lot of other folks would agree that she is one of the strongest female artists of the 20th century. Choosing the all-time best would be hard for us all.

That Black Girl Site : Even Oprah Needs to Watch What She Says

I'm happy to report that Winfrey and Mzamane have settled this case. If they hadn't some of the girls who were abused at Oprah's school may have been compelled to testify. Now all of that has been avoided. Read more about it here: http://thresq.hollywoodreporter.com/2010/03/oprah...

I totally agree Tanya. She's down to earth through and through. Wish she got more work but what she does do is always stellar.

Hi Alex, Based on all of your comments I'm starting to be convinced that spending the cost of a crazy concert ticket will be well worth it for Miss Ross. Thanks to you and everyone else who weighed in.

That Black Girl Site : U.S. Army vs. Alexis Hutchinson: When A Mother Can't Leave Her Child

Proud Mom, clearly your experience (and those of other single mothers who make it work) are the stories we should be telling. Thanks you (and everyone else in the military) for your honest feedback. Corynne

Have men tried to use their children to get out of deployment too? I haven't heard that. Corynne

I think young woman considered the armed services need to know more about the realities. That being said this case has brought a lot of negative attention to the Army which is the reason I think they've decided to give Hutchinson a discharge instead of going through with the court martial. But what are they going to do the next time? Corynne

Awesomely Luvvie : Dear Stevie Wonder, Fire your Team

Fri, 5 Feb 2010 06:56:43 +0000

Gurl, I've often wondered whether Stevie's styling team is laughing straight to the bank and recycling stuff from decades earlier. They got my man looking questionable time and again. So I agree they gotta get the boot--unless of course The Wonderous One has set the fashion direction himself. As in He says, "These braids are HOT." They say, "Umm okay." Anyway, you may have to invent something more dramatic than a *WALL SLIDE* to describe just how horrid is to see a musical legend crooning alongside a lightweight like Trey Songz. They should Stop, Drop and Hit the Road. Pronto. Or next year The Wonderous One will be singing "You're a Jerk" with The New Boyz. Can you imagine?

That Black Girl Site : Mary J. Blige To Sing With Andrea Bocelli at the Grammys

It was an amazing performance too. I'd say Mary and Andrea were one of the best treats of the entire night. Two strong voices, no gimmicks.
