QUEEN LATIFAH: I’M NO OPRAH

Queen Latifah, or Ms. Dana Owens, has a new attitude with a new wardrobe to match.  The 41 year old singer and actress not only continues to celebrate her recent clothing line, she also discusses plans to launch her new talk show in the January 2012 issue of ESSENCE Magazine.

In the issue, Latifah openly speaks to the discrimination of manufacturers against curvaceous women and her decision to make a difference. “A lot of manufacturers don’t respect the curvaceous woman. They don’t respect our dollar or our shape.” Luckily the Home Shopping Network provided a positive partnership where Latifah could creatively express her ideas regarding the market for plus size women, not to mention the line is doing extremely well with the shopping channel.

TYLER PERRY DOMINATES HOLLYWOOD WITH 4 MOVIES AND A TV NETWORK IN 2012!

Wow!

Tyler Perry hustled 7 seasons of House Of Payne out of TBS. That’s amazing, especially in a current climate where networks are dropping shows like fake a$$’ on the dance floor after 1 season (some times less).

Big up to Mr Perry, even though I don’t at all care for the show. Obviously a lot of folks do though, seeing that it has lasted for so long. But wait, that’s not all. Even though it hasn’t been formally announced yet, and despite the fact that Perry already has 3 films scheduled for release in 2012, he said he plans to release a new Madea film in 2012 as well!  He’s not yet sure what this Madea tale will involve however. So make that 4 Tyler Perry films to be released in 2012 – 3 he stars in (Good DeedsI, Alex Cross, and whatever the Madea movie will be); 1 he’s directing right now (The Marriage Counselor).

[WATCH] OPRAH’S LIFECLASS TEACHES HOW TO HANDLE CONFRONTATION!

“You said that people will be able to take what you tell them, but what if you know that they will fall apart if you do?” This was the question a member of the audience posed to Oprah and her longtime friend, relationship expert Iyanla Vanzant, last Friday evening after the live weekly edition of Oprah’s Lifeclass on OWN TV.

Long after Friday’s show ended, the conversation kept going and the cameras kept rolling, capturing the exclusive footage above. Oprah and Iyanla shared their insight into how to have the difficult conversations we all need to have in life, with confidence and without regret. Later, Oprah and Iyanla tackled the equally difficult question of how to honor your own emotions when you feel pressure to be the morale booster.

SORRY MO’NIQUE, YOU SHOULD’VE ATTENDED THE OSCARS!

Okay, I didn’t even notice that Mo’nique wasn’t at the Oscars.  Truthfully, I forgot she was an Oscar winner after watching multiple episodes of her BET talk show. But as I was reading my friend Necole Bitchie’s site, I was hoping for a real excuse to why she didn’t appear, and the reason…(drum roll)

Because she had to tape her BET show! Really? Really? The Oscars vs. BET?? And all the Black folks complaining about there was no ‘color’ [as if it's required] at this year’s award show.  SMH!

Necole reported:

“Seeing as how comedienne, TV host, and actress Mo’Nique received the award for Best Supporting Actress at last year’s Oscars, many are wondering why she was missing in action from the Awards ceremony this year. Normally, the winner from the Best Actress category will come back the following year to present an award but it wasn’t the case last night.
