‘Jumping The Broom’ is a new film by director Salim Akil that celebrates the African tradition of jumping the broom to signify a marriage when it wasn’t always legal for blacks to marry in the 18th century.
‘Jumping The Broom’, produced by Tracey Edmonds and Bishop T.D. Jakes, is a romantic comedy that explores today’s difficulty in abstaining from sex until marriage.
Marion “Pooch” Hall of BET’s ‘The Game’ plays Ricky, the best friend of the groom, Jason (Laz Alonzo). And Romeo Miller (“Dancing With The Stars”) plays Sebastian, the cousin of the bride, Sabrina (Paula Patton).
Problems crop up for Jason and Sabrina when their two families from opposite ends of the tracks clash on Martha’s Vineyard during their dream weekend wedding.
“Help me Jesus, that boy is fine!,” says Shonda (Tasha Smith) after meeting Sebastian, who prefers “a more seasoned woman with a little more experience.”
Later, Jason, Ricky, Sebastian and Malcolm (DeRay Davis) get together for an impromptu bachelor party before the wedding. Ricky, Malcolm and Sebastian each take opposing views of what it really means to be a man in this clip from the movie.
‘Jumping The Broom’ is in theaters May 6th.

My Easter was very good. We actually spent part of it in Atlanta.

Pooch Pooch Pooch….
Saw the movie screening last night and the movie is cute! IMO the movie was about a lot more than just abstaining from sex until marriage. Romeo definitely got me wanting to be a cougar!! LOL! And Mike Epps is a FOOL!
Romeo’s Dad better warn him about those white girls he seem to like dating
( in real life )
He may be the one to give away everything ( to the whites) that his father worked very hard for.
If MasterP hands over his empire to his son, and his son goes and marries a white girl or better yet has a baby by one, they can kiss that empire goodbye!
Cause them jokers is gonna take everythang, the same way they took America.
To the White Readers:
Nothing personal on an individual basis, it’s just the reality of what your folks love to do
Pooch is the ONLY ONE I’d jump the broom with, period, end of story

Too bad he’s already jumped it
Can’t wait to see this movie.
hmm hmm hmm Romeo…I been crushing since “my baby” and I am still crushing hard!
@2012
glad to see you’re back *sarcasm*
Helloooooo
I wanna see this movie but Romeo isn’t making me want to jump the broom!
@Lakes
He calls her stanky boody sooo funny and cute
well add me to the minority I have no intentions of going to see this
I want to support this one, but it seems like the run of the mill lackluster black movies. I’ll wait for the DVD. It’s something about seeing Deray Davis in any movie, I know it’s going to have a generic or “slapstick” style comedy. I’m not a fan at all. The film has Mike Epss. Again, slapstick comedy type actor. I don’t laugh when I see epps or deray in a movie. I dread it actually. And then they got TD Jakes attached to it. WHY?
Remember when he produced that movie with Taraji and Morris? Me either. I just know they were in it. I didn’t see it or can tell you title of it.
I know it’s just a movie, but whatever.
as much as I wanted to support this film…..DEERAY DAVIS has convinced me not too
