Sandra, thanks for including that clip from Tavis Smiley’s show on your site. I hadn’t seen that. Unlike 99% of your readers, I agree with everything that they said. And, maybe I missed it last night, but, in the […]

This is an excellent comment because it is short but sweet, and it speaks to why black people should not vote for a candidate based on his race or emotions.
ELove says:
Do I want OBAMA to win? YES
IS my life going to change once he’s elected? HELL NO
IS he the perfect candidate? NO ONE IS
Will HE […]

I’m laughing at Bennett College president Dr. Julianne Malveaux being “heartbroken” that Barack Obama didn’t mention Martin Luther King or poverty in his DNC speech last night. Doesn’t she know that Barack isn’t running for president as a black man?

Republican presidential hopeful John McCain announced his choice for VP this morning. I was just as surprised as you were to learn he picked a woman. I was even more surprised to learn that Sarah Palin is against abortion and everything else we hold sacred.
But with her on the ticket, McCain will probably […]

We heard rumors that Rihanna - who is only 20 - and the geek Chris Brown might be engaged, but we just know that Rihanna is not that stupid to ruin her life for that boy (Yes, we see the rock but we’re ignoring it).
According to online reports, RiRi and CB have been spotting shopping […]

I couldn’t put this one under Celeb Style, because, well, you can see for yourself that Rihanna’s fashion sense took the day off. But she still has that swagger. Is that a Kanye West teddy bear on the back of her jacket?

Celebs were out & about in full force last night in Atlanta. Fantasia (who’s no longer Dro’s boo) and pals Tiny and Kandi Burrus partied at The Velvet Room. While Keyshia Cole showed off her new look at Club ESSO.
But while her friends partied the night away, where was songstress Monica? I […]

If you missed Barack Obama’s Democratic Party acceptance speech last night, click here.
This video is a semi-biography that serves as a campaign vehicle for Obama. Note that there are very few images of black people in this video. Has Obama ever been to the hood? Because I don’t see that reflected in […]

After being stricken with a deadly heart infection, Toni Braxton’s will to live was too strong. She has regained her health and come back in a big way! Toni previously canceled her Las Vegas show at the Flamingo due to the grueling nightly schedule.
But entertainment is in her blood. TMZ.com caught up […]

Don’t get it twisted: if Obama wins the election MICHELLE will be your new president. We definitely know who wears the pants in that household.

I have just received word from a confidential source at Hot 107.9 that the A-Team Morning show was abruptly let go today.
Word is comedian Rickey Smiley has been installed as the new Morning show host at Hot 107.9. That is sad news, but the new Arbitron Portable People Meter (PPM) has every radio programmer […]

Loyal SR reader Elizabeth was referring to this post. She went on to say, “(I know this is total silliness.for real)..But I’m just saying.haha.”
I think they could pass for Obama as a child if they make a movie based on his life. :

Solange speaks on “that ridiculous news clip” yesterday. I don’t know about y’all but I accept her apology. Solange also slams FOX News and TMZ.com for their — [she stopped just short of saying racist] - agendas.
