Nyketa Gaffney — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 19:05:12 +0000

Rihanna is one of those young artists who is not afraid to take risks and expose her vulnerability. The girl is a “say it like it is” kind of chick, which makes her humorous and relatable. Add the fact that her accent/island girl attitude is captivating, she’s undeniably adorable-the media loves her!

Though, no one adores her more than her fans (Rihanna Navy). For their satisfaction, she released a TwitVid of behind the scenes footage of the making of We Found Love. it is her latest single off her upcoming album Talk That Talk.

Call It The Get Back Body!

Nyketa Gaffney — Sat, 14 May 2011 22:04:53 +0000

There is no denying that American Idol winner Jordin Sparks is looking great these days! Not that she wasn’t adorable before, it’s just it seems she has went from cute to uber sexy in a blink of an eye (a 30 lb weight loss). Jordan recently spoke with Ryan Seacrest about the infamous bikini pic that suggested she was a new woman. Well, she told Ryan that about 6 months ago she was going though a break up and decided to that she wanted to go into the new year with a new start, as well as being healthy. She said “Instead of talking about being active, I made it a priority.” She also told Ryan that if you would have asked her a year ago if she’d be posting bikini pics she would have emphatically said no! Now, she has found the confidence. Along with flaunting her new fabulous body, she is promoting her new single I Am Woman from her up coming album. Are you a Jordin Sparks fan? What do you think about her transformation? Leave us your comments below!

Nyketa Gaffney — Tue, 10 May 2011 13:06:56 +0000

The Braxton Family Values is now a hit reality TV show! The sisters delve into a lot of personal issues and expose their relationships on the show. It is very intriguing and relatable with their audience because the sisters hold no bars, and the show comes across as very honest. It also doesn’t hurt that they are all very funny characters! Especially Tamar with her “dot coms”. On a recent sneak peak Towanda reveals her rental home is under foreclosure, and she has one day to move out. Talk about drama!

Movie News: Jumping The Broom

Nyketa Gaffney — Sun, 08 May 2011 20:28:00 +0000

According to my sources the cast of Jumping the Broom can certainly jump for joy! The film is officially the third most popular movie in the nation, and has raked in $16 million! Not bad at all, considering the movie budget was $6.6 million. Experts credit the effective promotions and marketing with faith based audiences, the tie-ins with TLC‘s wedding programs, as well as the recent Royal Wedding for the success. This is a testament to independent black films; we look forward in excitement to increasing investment in such. The cast of Jumping the Broom include Angela Bassett, Lorette DeVine, Paula Patton, Meagan Good, and Mike Epps to name a few. The movie is a hit! Have you seen Jumping the Broom?
