Today, the tour manager said nobody gave Chrisean a microphone. He said the microphone was sitting on side of the stage and Chrisean picked it up and just walked on while Tamar was singing. I can't watch this video without laughing now. This BEATS lil mama and Jay Z.
UPDATE: A representative for Will Smith says the actor is considering taking legal action following an allegation made during an interview with gossip personality Tasha K that he and Duane Martin had s*x.
I hate that we pretend that we don't know that if someone grew up in a family that was on a fixed income, food was rationed. You couldn't eat whenever you wanted to or have seconds. And more expensive food was reserved for adults. These conversations are disingenuous.
HBCUs just got into gymnastics LAST year and already the National College Gymnastics Champion is from an HBCU team (Fisk). But wait, there's more. Another HBCU gymnast came in 2nd place (Talladega).
Morgan Price of

With a score of 39.225, she becomes the first USAG Collegiate National Champion from an HBCU!

The manager escalated this situation and needs more training or firing. If she Would have hurt herself when he threw her down, he could’ve opened that company up to a massive lawsuit.
Being a child lawyer is interesting. You drive 2 hrs to talk to a 4 year old client about her adoption case. Got your legal pad to ask the hard hitting question. Next thing you know she pushes it aside and asks "can you paint my nails?" Now sitting on the floor painting her nails
For the first time in history, there are two black world all-around champions in gymnastics (Rebeca Andrade of Brazil and Simone Biles of USA) they will face off this weekend. We aren’t talking about this enough.

In 2019 I started my own boys gymnastics team. We went to our first competition, the Georgia boys gymnastics season opener in 2020 and came in last. Last week we went to that same competition and won first place 🥇

This happened to Eartha Kitt in South Africa at a theme park. They told her the theme park was only for Whites and Europeans. She told them she was American so they said she could stay. If I know the story correctly, she left anyway because of how they treated her.
@el_budget
1) I run a low cost all black boys gymnastics club in ATL. One of my boys is the current state champion 💪🏾
2) My challenges are cost & parents not understanding gymnastics
3) Scholarships help my boys train. Would you like to sponsor a boy? Any amount helps🙏🏾

Daiane dos Santos said “The 1st Brazilian to win a medal at the worlds was a black woman. The 1st Brazilian to win a gold medal at the Olympics was a black woman. This is important because they said we could not be in these places.” Rebeca Andrade, Brazil’s first world champion.
When I was in law school, a classmate tried to do this same thing to me. She was dismissed from school and contacted me saying she was in town for a conference and needed a place to stay. She was in my apt for two weeks and never left for a conference.
In season 2 of Scandal, Fitz said his family were social climbers & the only reason he married Mellie was bc she came from old money. But in season 4 when Mellie & Fitz were divorcing, she said she should get more in the settlement because Fitz came from money and she didn't.
In 2019 I started the first ever all black boys gymnastics team. We used someone else’s gym on weekends & had very little equipment. We have grown so much in 3 years. Would you please help us to continued to grow by donating to our spring floor fundraiser

Likely because she doesn't have many close friends due to being married for a while and having three kids, so she really doesn't have anyone to talk to about this. Also, she's grieving the death of her daughter and the end of her marriage and the emotions are overwhelming her.

Naw it was more than just flowers. He didn’t hold her hand. He didn’t give her all his ours when he had the chance. He didn’t take her to every party cause all she wanted to do was dance. This woman wanted a lot.
It's interesting that Taraji mentioned her last raise came in Proud Mary which came out in 2018. Proud Mary was a good movie & should have been Taraji's big move into action movies, but the marketing was all wrong, starting with this trailer with no plot.
10 years ago, Simone Biles became the first black world all around champion in gymnastics. Today, three black women swept the world championship podium winning gold, silver, and bronze. Simone Biles again, Rebeca Andrade, and Shilese Jones. Give them their things.
Y’all ever seen green debutantes before? I Just found out about the Zulu Social and Pleasure club in New Orleans. They have a cotillion but the girls don’t dress in white, but in a different theme each year. I love when we take Ameripean traditions and blacken them up.
@SidMich_
You can tell she’s a humble person. She hurried up and got out of the way to not steal the moment from the woman getting engaged, whole time she was the woman getting engaged.
Russia’s National Gymnastics coach wants rules changed after Simone Biles wins the World Championships for the 6th time. She said Simone “had no great performance, only difficulty.”
