Brown Sista

A few weeks ago urban gossip queen Wendy Williams alluded that the actress who would be portraying her in the movie Queen Of Media, would be someone huge- whom we all knew. I spent but a brief moment wondering who it could be, but yesterday Wendy let the cat outta the bag when she told the world, live on her show, that actress Robin Givens would be bringing her larger than life persona to the big screen. I know many people may find the casting a bit off as Robin and Wendy look nothing alike. Neither did Tina Turner and Angela Bassett, but no one would argue that Angela played Tina to perfection. I believe Robin will do the same for Wendy. After all, Wendy’s look can easily achieved, it is her personality that Robin will really have to capture and I think the sista has the acting chops to pull it off.

As hard as it is to believe, a whole year after the trailer for this film first hit the internet, people are still talking about the garbage that is Diary Of A Tired Black Man. Now, I started not to give this movie any time and space on my site, but I see that I must just to talk about how much I hate it. For those of you who haven’t yet had the pleasure of seeing this modern day hate movie aimed at Black women, you can see clips of it on their official website. Word is it is also playing in selected theaters across the country. I happen to have had the opportunity to talk to the writer of this film, Tim Alexander, personally. We spoke several times by phone last year and he even invited me to some function he was attending aimed at dialoguing with Black women about the content of his movie. I passed on accompanying him to this pow wow with Black women because I knew what Tim was up to and I had no plans to help him.

It seems Garcelle Beauvais is following in the footsteps of another Black actress, Stacey Dash, and is taking it all off for the pages Playboy Magazine. According to Playboy’s Cyber Club, Garcelle has posed for the August issue of the men’s magazine which hits news stands at the beginning of July. Garcelle is probably best known for her role as Fancy on the Jamie Foxx Show. The sista however started her career off as a model and I believe she has been on the cover of Essence magazine more times than any other model. Garcelle ruled the pages of many Black fashion magazines before she set her sights on Hollywood in the late eighties.

In between preaching to you all this week I actually found time to update BrownSista.net and create galleries for Shar Jackson and Buffy the Body. Yes I said Buffy- lol. Also added were high quality photos of a beautiful Mary J. Blige photo shoot taken last year and a shoot I believe Kelis did in the U.K last year as well. Other galleries updated include Jamelia, Nia Long, Meagan Good and what would a week be like without pics of Beyonce. The sista performed in Marceille a few nights ago and well- she looked awful glittery and even more jiggly. Go check’em out for yourself.

Below are just a few of the sites I visit from time to time, as well as articles that I think are worthy of Black women’s attention. As I browsed the internet today and yesterday I could not help but notice the amount of anguish many sistas seem to be feeling simply because a stranger, Reggie Bush, had chosen to take up with a woman who was not of his ethnicity (Kim Kardashian). Black Female Interracial Marriage is a blog I visit quite often because I believe the owner truly has a love for her sistas and wants to see them happy, content and fulfilled. Sometimes that fulfillment may come from a man who looks like you- but sometimes it wont. Date A White Guy is another blog I visit on occasion, and again, I believe the owner posts a lot of information that Black women need to hear.

As the week comes to a close we have another batch of random images that didn’t make the cut during the week. We have Beyonce and Jay taking some downtime and vacationing in Monaco. We have Rihanna continuing to perform and promote her new album overseas. We also have Meagan Good hosting BET’s 106 & Park, as well as what I believe to be a new ANTM photo shoot from Tyra Banks. But to get things started we have Beyonce and Jay-Z to your upper left who were spotted in Monaco earlier today. Bey is obviously in need of rest as she is on a spectacular world tour throughout Asia and Europe that so far has seen her playing to over a million adoring fans and getting rave reviews in the process.

Actress Shar Jackson is coming to a television near you. I first heard nearly two years ago that Shar was due to host her own reality show and it appears that time has finally come. ABC announced the once teen star, and mother of two of Kevin Federline’s children, will be hosting their new reality series, The Ex Wives Club. The show will revolve around a group of women who have faced celebrity divorces and want to learn how to move on with their lives. Besides Shar, other notable ex-wives and girlfriends include Marla Maples, who was married to Donald Trump and Angie Everhart who was married to Ashlee Hamilton.

It has been a very hectic week you guys but I have finally found time to not only update the gallery but to also bring you some very exclusive images that you will not see anywhere else- at least until tomorrow- lol. As you all know it has been a very busy week in Hollywood for our celebrity sistas. Rihanna has been guest hosting TRL. Kelly Rowland had her album pushed back yet again, and word is Jermaine Dupri is trying to bring three- ok two, of the biggest names in music together- Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey- and some rapper name Nelly. But to get right into what this post is about, we will start things off with actress Meagan Good. The pic to your upper left is a few months old as I believe it was taken when she stopped by the CW11 Network to promote Stomp The Yard. Still, she looks absolutely gorgeous and remember, you saw these gems here first.
