Dang...Usher V Looks Like He's Smoking Cigs With Pops!! lol

Usher V...got those smoker lips like his daddy! lol
They've been sharin' Newports in da' club! :)
Is it possible for spermatazoa to carry nicotine into the womb and sit it on a baby's lips?!
I'm just askin'
I wonder why they didn't photoshop Lil V's lips??

Anyhoooo, baby Raymond is a cutie pie with those deep penetratin' see clear down to the bone marrow of your sould kinda eyes, and I'm lovin' that newspaper boy hat he's rockin'

Look for the Urshers to the 2nd power on a newsstand near you...August Edition.


I gotta go find another story, cuz I can't stop looking at that baby's lips...smh

Also, I still think Usher was mad cuz magazines weren't trying to pay him $$ katrillions of dollars, like other A-list celebs, to get pics of lil Nicotine, and that's why he called all of the other celebs parents who did get to laugh all the way to the bank -sell-outs.

Keepin' it real, I wonder how much can I get for my hankty rascals?
Ursher can call me a sell-out, cuz I'll correct him and tell him to call me "SOLD OUT" after the check clears!
Ya heard?!

The Photo That's Launching Black Conspiracy Theories All Over America...smh

I love the content of Bossip.com

To me it is a great black entertainment blog just as Concrete Loop, and Young, Black and Fabulous...as a matter of fact, I utilize their content often.
Today, I remembered why I stopped posting at Bossip and other black entertainment blogs...sigh...drama.
Drama that only my people can stir up. lol

When I first viewed this image at
Urban Scanz
my thought was hmmm, ok that's cool. I like the "opposite" element that's going on here:
black/white
male/female
masculine/feminine
aggression of athletics/softness of modeling
(not including drug use, bulimia, anorexia, backstabbing etc lol)
you get the picture.
As a matter of fact...to me the cover was boring-
that's why I didn't include it at Bria's Own Words along with the other covers featuring black celebrities
[p1.vogue.jpg]

Don't get me wrong...it looks like Lebron and Gisele had fun doing this photo shoot, but nothing stopped and made me go..."wow that's a nice cover, I want to feature it at Brias Own Words..." nor did it make me want to call Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton!

Well chile let me tell you...all hell has broken loose at Bossip...there are so many theories flying around in the comment section, you'd have enough material to write a dissertation for a doctorate's degree.
It became so ridiculous, I got a headache and decided to post this pic and see if any of you
see Lebron as
  • King Kong
  • A Slave
  • hoodwinked/bamboozled
it goes on and on.
And for those (myself) who don't see the racist intent of the photo, they (me) too have been hoodwinked.

sigh


So I'm asking you all...when you view the image above (please note the title of the issue), remember the issue is about the bodies of athletes and super models. Vogue has chosen the athlete and super model who is at the top of the game, What comes to mind?
Is this a subtle racist cover?
Please clue me in.

Golf World::DOLLARS trumps Truth-Everytime!

drumbeat to my sis Rosemarie of Miscellaneous Matters for this news.

I'm going to rustle some feathers, but ask me do I care? (Do I care??) NO.
Dave Seanor, editor of Golfweek, was dismissed for putting a noose on the cover of its Jan 19th issue. The noose had no racial intent and was used as an analogy in reference to Kelly Tilghnan's tacky remark, regarding Tiger Woods, and the Golf Channel's handling of the blurb.



Let me put it like this:
If Tiger forgave that child, what's the big friggin' deal? I do not have it in me to GET BLOODY MAD at every offensive and racially (intended or not) statement or action. Because if I did, I'd be picketing, boycotting,striking and having sit-ins against my own race, ok?

The cover is purple in background, and Seanor makes reference to the Noose and how it is 'slipped' (Tilghman's statement).
He simply flipped the script on Tilghman, and the Golf Channel in light of Tilghman's error.

Unfortunately in the corporate world when there's a backlash (or controversy), the first head to roll is the one in a dispensable leadership position (see Detroit Lions).

The parent company of Golfweek.com, Turnstile Publishing issued this statement:

"We apologize for creating this graphic cover that received extreme negative reaction from consumers, subscribers and advertisers across the country," ... "We were trying to convey the controversial issue with a strong and provocative graphic image. It is now obvious that the overall reaction to our cover deeply offended many people. For that, we are deeply apologetic.
"


In my opinion the cover is not offensive, it's shocking. It's time we stop sweeping uncomfortable subjects under the carpet. It's time address America's ugliness and stop firing the people who, in sincerity, are bringing to light (not making light) of America's ugly secret.

This is what I don't understand:
  • Tilghman who offended a race by her soooo not funny remark, said Tiger W should be taken to an alley and lynched, received a 2-week paid vacation.
  • Seanor, who offended Golf.com (and Tilghman, who's not powerful...or is she) by putting a noose on the cover of Golfweek and calling Tilghman and Golf Channel on carpet was FIRED.
  • In corporate America (I am employed in Corporate America), you are to carry out assigned tasks, and NOT make the 'good ole boys' nervous. Seanor should've taken this position eventhough HE WAS NOT WRONG- ...but shouldn't Tilghman have taken the same position? Also, consider the intent. My co-worker who's white, said out of all the things Kelly could've said...why would she refer to lynching-in reference to Tiger (who's black)? why not say they could take him to a remote island, or drop him off on a deserted hwy? Tilghman knows the right people, Seanor doesn't.
  • Why didn't he get a 2-wk vacation?
  • Why didn't Tilghman get fired?
  • Which action was more offensive?
  • The answer? Seanor's. In corporate America-faux pas, snafus, errors, controversy, going-against-the-grain, can translate into advertisers pulling their financial support from Golfweek and they can't have that.
  • Yes black people were offended, but there's not enough black people involved in the world of golf, that would cause Golf Week or Golf.com to take notice or care about Tilghman's stupid remark. Their financial contribution isn't enough to rock the Golf world's boat.
  • Sorry this happened to you, Seanor. I'm hoping the next venture you undertake is one that'll trust your judgment and stand by you during stormy times...maybe it's time to become an entrepreneur. :)
Dave Seanor is interviewed by Yahoo! Sports after his dismissal. His thoughts on his firing
Seanor, takes the high road even in the interview...good for him!

*It's M.M. Monday!* Ebony Magazine Wins PhotoShop Award!

Michael Looks Beautiful in an Inanimate, Frontlace-tastic Kind of Way
(Thanks Overanalyze It & dlisted.com)

It's hard being objective when looking at Mike.

Ok, I was understanding as to why he thinned his nose a little.

Then a little bit more.

Then a little more.

Then some more.

Then lighter skin.

And lighter.

And yet lighter skin.

Ok, when the chin took on a frankensteinesque square shape-I became alarmed.

Fast forward to today:

Tight jeans-high-heels-wearing,purse-toting-mask-wearing-beige-colored-skin-inhumanly-possible-perfect-frontlace-wig-white-babies-with-black-dna...

I mean come on Michael!!

You're becoming more and more ridiculous when I see you.

If a doctor does not confront M.J. and his OBVIOUS body dysmorphic disorder,

I'M GOING TO SUE ON M.J'S BEHALF.

It's time for an intervention!!

He's not even white-HE'S BEIGE!

Mike you CANNOT TELL ME, that's the look you were going for-

these doctors need to be sued, fined, and licenses revoked.

You Betta Recognize--you better be glad it's him & not me!
p.s. I don't know when this Ebony comes out, but I'm not purchasing it cuz i'd be too creeped out with Michael looking up at me from the cover-that's it I'm suing Ebony on BEHALF of M.J. I'm suing for false representation, coddling him in his false reality, and making him look even more mannequinesque.
I know Ebony, isn't Essence Magazine-but this, Michael looks pure-d-ridiculous.
That is not keeping it real Ebony Magazine!
