Did you know?

I felt that the below article needed to be read by all parents! "Two chemicals considered harmful to babies remain in Johnson & Johnson's baby shampoo sold in the U.S. and some other countries, even though the company already makes versions without them, according to an international coalition of health and environmental groups. Now the coalition is urging consumers to boycott Johnson & Johnson baby products until the company agrees to remove the chemicals from its baby products sold around the world, including in China and the U.K. The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics has unsuccessfully been urging the world's largest health care company for 2 1/2 years to remove the trace amounts of potentially cancer-causing chemicals — dioxane and a substance called quaternium-15 that releases formaldehyde — from Johnson's Baby Shampoo, one of its signature products."

Shoe Addiction!!!!

Police caught a gang of 6 cocaine smugglers this week.  The gang would turn cocaine into copies of Manolo Blahnik's. basically they used a process that turned the cocaine into a paste and molded the cocaine into the high end heels. Then paint the molds to look like different styles of the famous Manolo's. Then they would get people called mulls to transport the shoes to other countries where the copies would be processed to powder cocaine and distributed.   I thought I was creative with my shoes but this takes being creative to a whole new level.  The shoes/cocaine were worth $630,000. 

Something to thing about!

Fall is in the Air

Now that Fall has come, I've put low lights in my hair.  I advise everyone to start to make the move to the cooler months ahead.  Leting your hair grow is another way of moving into the winter months.  I think the best way to do this is to see your hairstylist more often to give you a new style for your growing hair.  That way you won't go crazy trying to handle the new length and this helps keep you from cutting it.  I've also taken out my sweaters and put up my sandles.  I love the change in season because I feel like I got a lot of new clothes when I pull out my winter wardrobe.  Another tip I do is only buy three new items for the new season and I try to get rid of three.  I do this because I need to save space.  If you don't need to save space I believe it's still a good idea so that you stay current.  I hope these tips help you move into winter.

May the Force be with you!

Bieber gets some Beaver!!!

Mariah Yeater 20 years old, claims that she gave Justin Bieber 17 years old, his first Beaver.  And, Mariah had a little Bieber named Tristyn 4 months old.  At 17 Justin Bieber is in the center of a maternity suit.  Justin Bieber needed to be watching more "Leave it to Beaver" than making songs about Babies his latest release called amazingly "Baby".  "As the World Turns" for Justin.  I wonder what Selena Gomez 19 his girlfriend thinks of all of this?.  Justin's mother Pattie Mallette was just 18 when she had Justin and raised him as a single mom, "The Apple doesn't fall far from the Tree".  If this is true Justin Bieber only lasted 30 second in the beaver his fans are going to be disappointed.  If Mariah is lying what lies ahead for her?  If it's the truth The Bieber is less than a 3 minute man......LOL

The New Black!

What do Mary J. Blige, Whitney Houston, Fantasy and Jennifer Hudson have in common besides being black female singers?  They all have new movies coming to the movies soon.  Mary J. Blige is going to be Nina Simone.  I've been reading alot about this and some people don't think she is the right choice.  Think again Mary J. Blige has been breaking walls down since we first heard her music.  Whitney Houston has been gone from the big screen for sometime.  She better have a controlled environment, so that she doesn't go Bobby Brown on us.  Fantasy will be playing Mahalia Jackson.  I worked with her on the Color Purple on Broadway and she's got the chops as long as they don't ask her to do 8 shows a week for 8 months....LOL....Jennifer Hudson is going to be Winnie Mandela, do I hear OSCAR buzzzz?? I will keep you posted.....Black is Back!!!!!!

April Fools

April 1st. should have been Kim Kardashian's wedding day and all she would have had to say was, sike (April fools)!!! Really, she clearly does not take marriage seriously, 72 days is all she could do on her second marriage. After all the money spent and freebies. It's clear that there is something going wrong in this family and our society keeps rewarding this bad behavior. Please stop, this for the sake of the young people watching this. Barbara Walters needs to interview Kim's mother so that we can get a better insight on what's going on in this family. Because as it stands now the Kardashian's seem like a bunch of spoiled brats. I believe if parents had to pay for the mistakes there children made parents would do a better job. Make them Pay or make them give back everything that was given to them for that wedding. Kim Kardashian needs to be taught a lesson.

"Let Them Eat Cake"

Now, why is it when Kim Kardashian gets freebie's and money, for her wedding it's O.K? I remember not so long ago WHEN Star Jones did that for her wedding and she was dogged in the press. There seems to be a double standard in Hollywood or is it just me. Star was dogged for being cheap and ostentatious. Kim got $10,000.00 worth of invitations free received $50,000.00 to host her bachelorette party at Tao and a cake estimated at $6,000.00 from Hansen's Cakes. These are just a few of the perks this reality star received not to mention the 1.5 million plus from people magazine for the pictures of her wedding and engagement ring. Kim Kardashhian is only a reality star that had a sex tape who's mother married an athlete. Star Jones is a Lawyer turned talk show host, brains and talent. It really troubles me to think that Star's skin was not light enough and she was not thin enough for Hollywood or the media. Star flaunted her "fabulosity" around and Hollywood could not take her. I'm getting very tired of the American press and society wanting black people to be so humble and subservient. Kim with her 2.5 million 65 carat Diamond Lorraine Schwartz headpiece, her $2 million Schwartz engagement ring, 20.5 carat diamond on her right hand, her 28 carat earring worth $5 million. If this isn't ostentatious I don't know what is! And, now the press wants to talk about Obama going to Martha's Vineyard for his vacation, with the economy in the state that it's in. It really feels like this country has come a long way and has even further to go. Kim could have gotten the entire country out of debt with what she did or did not spend on her wedding. It just reminds me of Marie Antoinette and "Let them Eat Cake". Hollywood and the press needs to wake up! The American people are smarter than that.
