"Man they don't make 'em like this anymore." -kanye west stronger

"I DON'T HAVE GREY IN MY BEARD IN REAL LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M ALL DOWN WITH BEINGS IN MY 30'S BUT DAAAAAAAAMN!!!! THIS IS SOME BENJAMIN BUTTON'S SHIT!"
Kanye got a little pissy on his blog about his 'gray beard' on the February issue of VIBE...but something tells me deep down he really loves it. I think he rants just because he can. Anywho, I'm loving the cover. Especially the color scheme of it. But honestly I can't tell you the last time I bought, better yet scanned through a VIBE magazine.
What do you think? Do you think they straight Benjamin Button-ed Kanye's photo? lol

"What a bad little girl I am. I GOT A PROBLEM!" -rihanna bad girl
"A college grad lands a job as a financial journalist in New York City to support where she nurtures her shopping addiction and falls for a wealthy entrepreneur. Based on the novel "Confessions of a Shopaholic" by Sophie Kinsella." -imdb.com
I have to see this one. It has that "The Devil Wears Prada" feel to me and I absolutely loved that movie. I mean who didn't? Anywho, the buzz is Rihanna and Chris Brown's new song for the soundtrack which is titled "Bad Girl." At first listen I was like omg what the hell?!! But it still had a catchy feel to it that made me wanna dance to it. And now, I kinda like it. Polow produced the track and here it is for your enjoyment. =)
Will you be seeing this movie? In theaters February 13th.

"You're beautiful baby" -ciara click

This line was released a couple of years ago and I've always eye'd the vibrant bright colors in Target, but I never bought them. I'm afraid of color and always go for a neutral look when I wear makeup...even when I go out. Shame I know, but one day I was like, "I want the brightest color on my eyes. A nice hot pink should do me right!" And that's what I did and I loved it! I loved it so much that I got them as Christmas gifts for my mother and best friend. I was expecting the color to not show up as it looks in the pot but it did. A nice crayola pink. It really does have 'High Intensity Pigments'. They are reasonably priced at about $6.00/$7.00 which is cheap compared to the bigger names out there. They also added the metallic shadow duos to the mix and they are just as beautiful with the added shimmer of just enough glitter. And a girl can never have too much glitter at hand.
Try these if you haven't and especially if you're looking for rich true color at a good price. www.lorealparisusa.com

R&B Singer Casted To Play Aaliyah In Film

"Canadian R&B crooner Keisha Chante has reportedly been chosen to play the late singer Aaliyah in an upcoming biopic. Other details surrounding the biopic were not revealed but it’s slated to open in theaters in 2009. During her career, Aaliyah sold 32 million albums worldwide and was nominated for five Grammys. She was also romantically linked to Dame Dash and R. Kelly." -sixshot.com
Aaliyah's debut album was one of the first cd's I ever got. I remember the day like it was yesterday when my dad took me to Loco's Record Store and let me pick out my cd. As soon as I got back home I was on the phone calling everyone and anyone who would listen because it had just been released that day! He also got me her last one that was released when I was in high school...it was kinda our thing. Those were the days.
Anywho, are you excited about this movie? Do you think they did I good job casting her as far as the similarities?

"You're a big girl now, no more daddy's little girl." -nas big girl
I haven't gotten to watch this yet but I'll give you a review soon. But I will say that I've heard nothing good yet so far so of course my interest in the 'bad' is making me anxious to do so. And...I like to give everyone a chance. Yes I'm happy for their business success with the sneaker line but other than that...the girls annoy me. I remember trying to watch Run's House back in the day and I couldn't get through it because their voices IRKED me. Plus I couldn't decipher what the hell they were saying or talking about. I think it's my reason for not watching it yet, it's something I have to prepare for.
Anywho, I posted the trailer even though the first episode already premiered. Maybe I should post the actual first episode....yeah shortly.
New Episodes: Mondays @ 10:30 PM.
UPDATE: Okay I watched it. Scripted? Yes. Were they annoying? Very much so. Was that the same condo that Lauren and Audrina were living in on The Hills? I believe so. Will I watch the next episode? Uh huh. Thanks to the hardcore Brooklyn native cousin Jessica. She brings a little sanity to the show so far. She's not nearly as annoying and airhead-ish as the other three.

Lauren London Reveals Her Sexuality

90210 returned tonight and it was better than I expected. Christina, portrayed by Lauren London, reveals to Dixon that she has a GIRLFRIEND. Yeah...she swings that-a-way and Silver is relieved that the only black girl in town who could possibly take her black man away from her is a lesbo. No no wait, she's bi-sexual. Mean while, Annie and Naomi's half brother turns out to be a fluke who's just playing the role to get paid. And recovering addict, Adrianna, finds out she's pregnant. Yes I'm a bit embarrassed to know THIS much about this bland show but it's so enjoying to watch 'bad' shows and movies if you know what I mean. 
Anywho, what do we think about Lauren London joining the cast and portraying the sexy flirty bi-sexual???

I give this one a C.....for Ciara. =)

"Nothing really matters, I don't really care..." -alicia keys teenage love affair
Love this song and video. It was fresh and vibrant.
I just recently got to watch the BET's Notarized Videos of 2008...I'm sure that's not the exact title but you know what I mean. Anyway, out of the 100 videos I came to the conclusion that this one was my fave. Back in the day I used to be a music video freak, but now not so much. Today they're either predictable or just too damn simple. So I can catch a premiere online once and never see that video again or just not view it at all. Hmph...very unfortunate for me because I wake up everyday to enjoy and discover music. BUT, this video I can honestly say I viewed more than twice...or more than five times. It's colorful which I love and it had the storyline. Good job Alicia well done! Wonderful lyrics for us girls out here because I can recall being that pressed* over a boy....sometimes I even act that way now. =)
*Pressed is being extremely into a person to the point that it becomes annoying. Well not so much for girls but we are quick to refer to a boy as being pressed when we know all the well that we enjoy every minute of the attention he gives. Example: OMG why does he keep calling me? He is SO pressed!
