Amy Needs to Stay In London...and In Rehab...YES YES YES..

I'm digging this Amy v2.0!!



This girl looked great on the Grammy's!
She danced, smiled and knew ALL OF THE LYRICS to her songs, and she can SANG!
I'm so happy for her success!
I pray she keeps it up.

when she's sober, she has a way of singin' out the side of her mouth, lip whatever...and her 'blues brothers' looking brothas aka her back up singers are hilarious with their "Temptations" choreography, lol

...uh oh
she just found out she won for Rehab!!
she's so shocked, oh goodness she's so shocked!!
I love seeing her sober!
The crowd is chanting, "AMY, AMY AMY"
She thanked her mom and dad (her mom was on stage with her)
she thanked "Ray-Ray and Joe..." (this girl knows she's ghetto, lol)
...this is for Blake (husband), Blake incarcerated...
and for London...cuz Captain Town ain't burnin' down!"
I am typing so fast, lol
Congrats, Amy!
(at 08:32 into the video*below*, Amy's announced as the winner-observe her facial expression and the action happening around her! Priceless, lol)

LOOK AT 'EM NOW!

Recently, I presented Serena with Y.B.R's first annual Spirit of Perseverance
Award. For those who are not aware of what the Spirit of Perseverance award:


... presented to those who knew they looked a hot mess, and attempted to "fix it." This included morphing into something that only a cat would drag in, only a mother could love, or a blind person could justify. Because of their strong independent nature, our Spirit of Perseverance Award recipients refused the help of a stylist, and blew THOUSANDS of dollars buying several (unflattering) hairstyles, accessories, outfits, shoes, lotion w/out lanolin or shea butter. Not one to give up easily these recipients knew they were almost to their promised land and therefore continued to persevere, adapt, do it and stick-to-it, until heaven shined upon them and they were FINALLY were able to go out in public and not be talked about in tabloids, blogs, friends, family, co-stars, sponsors, fellow-athletes, children, Simon Cowell, etc. This award is given when consistency exists. Because everyone can have a "good day."

The "powers that be" at Y.B.R. (me) have decided to present this award on a need to basis and not yearly.
Having said that..I believe Serena was sooo honored by the award bestowed upon her, that she jumped on her sidekick and told Venus.
Venus, not one to be outdone by babysis, stepped up her game-and it is on point.
Well..I received an "anonymous" text from someone who advised me to keep my eye on Venus.
Intrigued, I did just that.

At the conclusion of my observation of Venus, it was apparent this chile was just as deserving of the Spirit of Perseverance Award.


***
So, with no further ado, for the first time in Y.B.R's 2-month history
The Spirit of Perseverance Award is being given to two people simultaneously-and their sisters!!


CONGRATULATIONS, VENUS &SERENA-YOU'VE COME A LONG WAY, BABIES!!

Somebody tell Golden Brooks, i'm still hopeful that she'll be a recipient soon and very soon!

*It's M.M. Monday!* Ending Monday, on a high note- no pun intended!

Jesus has taken the wheel-and I hope He NEVER gives it back!

Mama Whitney was a surprise guest at the Swarovski Fashion Rocks London... ( on Oct 18th).

She made her first visit to London in 10 years to sing a farewell song to Valentino. Prince V says he’s not making anymore Ready to Wear clothing.
Mama is looking fabulous too.

I have to give props where props is due.

first and foresmost-I must give it to my heavenly Father.

I KNOW He covered, dunked, submerged, held Whitney, under the blood of his Son, Christ Jesus!

It is a miracle that chile, is alive-and everyone knows it!!

It was touch and go for years, and i thought she was going to be in the same position as Britney S. No kids, hot mess (ok she was a hot mess), but she didn't lose her daughter! And it looks like Bobbi Kristina isn't being fast anymore, on myspace. Now B.K. is looking nice, and not too grown.

God is good!

Keep up the good work, Whitney, we know you have a testimony!
