So I was just on twitter last week asking where my girl Keyshia Cole was.. She has been missing from several high-profile events and I was like she pregnant! When I saw the pics from her Walmart event a couple months back I knew she was preggo. Now today the net is going crazy after she and her boo Boobie gave turkey's away at Bethany Baptist Church in Cleveland. Peep are def saying she is pregnant, maybe about six or seven months along.. Either way Congrats Keyshia! I'm happy for you :p
Jennifer Hudson is set to perform for the Indian Prime Minister and the Obamas tonight at the White House. She did a lil preview earlier on CNN and sounded beautiful1 She says that her dress will be purple and black! I soo wish I was going to be in the building! Goo Jen I know you will do great!
Word has it that Day26 has left Bad Boy..Last month or so Diddy announced that he was signing with Interscope, and that his artist would remain on Bad Boy. This may be good for them sad to say. They are now on Atlantic Records but are still good with Bad Boy. They Say:
Without Diddy’s backing, Day 26 is setting out to prove that they are more than just television stars. “We really want to get people focused on the artistry, on the music,” Taylor explained. “I think a lot of people lost it with the entertainment of the show. So now, we really want to show people what we’re all about, that we do our thing whether its on stage, in the studio, writing and producing — we do it all.”
The movie is based on a novel Push by Sapphire and executive-produced by Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry, who came on board after its screening at Sundance. My heart jumped, I got teary eyed, and wanted to jump through the screen all at once while watching this move. Monique, who is usually funny, was brutal and down right mean in this film. I was very surprised at Mariah Carey acting. She has come a long way from Glitter. Gabby(Precious) was wonderful. The movie just made me think about all the children who go through the abuse Precious went through. The rape, illiteracy, verbal and physical abuse. My heart goes out to those children. We have got to do better people. A lot of people say the movie was had a lot of stereo-types but I think it was good to have African-American characters. Go support this movie people! Taraji P. Henson was in uproar on twitter about how Precious was released. There was no way it could have broken any records with how it was released. Movie Reviews:
Entertainment Weekly In her first dramatic role, the comedian Mo'Nique acts with such force that she burns a hole in the screen. Her Mary is raging and defeated, a woman who treats Precious as a slave - and I don't use the word lightly, since part of the film's power is its perception that these two are living out patterns of cruelty that go back for generations. Their agony has roots. What's terrifying about the abuse here is how casually it's accepted as a fact of life, by both perpetrator and victim.
The Wall Street Journal
Precious is genuinely and irresistibly inspirational. If the filmmaking weren't so skillful and the acting weren't so consistently brilliant, you might mistake this production for a raw slice of life from a Third World country where movies can still be instruments of moral instruction and social change. If Ms. Sidibe weren't playing the title role, it's hard to imagine what Precious would be. She doesn't play it, she invades and conquers it with concentrated energy and blithe humor.
The Chicago Sun-Times Sidibe is heartbreaking as Precious, that poor girl. Three other actresses [Mo'Nique, Paula Patton, and Mariah Carey] perform so powerfully in the film that academy voters will be hard-pressed to choose among them... This casting looks almost cynical on paper, as if reflecting old Hollywood days when stars were slipped into "character roles" with a wink. But Lee Daniels, the director, didn't cast them for their names, and actually doesn't use any of their star qualities. He requires them to act. Somehow he was able to see beneath the surface and trust that they had within the emotional resources to play these women, and he was right... The film is a tribute to Sidibe's ability to engage our empathy. Her work is still another demonstration of the mystery of some actors, who evoke feelings in ways beyond words and techniques. She so completely creates the Precious character that you rather wonder if she's very much like her.
I have always believed Amber Rose is baddd, but badd wit her shades on(idk yall) but I saw this pic and had to post it! Amber looks gorgeous and with no shades on!
