A LESSON FOR THE CRYING
A lot of black women are in an uproar over black, famous rich men dating women who are not black. From splashy magazine covers (Essence) to popular reality shows ('Kendra'), biracial dating seems to be more than just a trend. There's a new book called 'Don't Bring Home a White Boy' hitting shelves soon, where attorney and writer Yolanda Young urges black women to take some tips from Kim and Khloe Kardashian and date outside of their race. As many know, the two half-Armenian TV personalities have nailed down two successful and wealthy black athletes: New Orleans Saints Superbowl winner Reggie Bush and Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom, respectively. Young says that instead of hating, people should look at how the Kardashian sisters have "advanced the careers of their boyfriends." She suggests that black women should focus their attention on "those who appreciate it," whether black or otherwise. Interesting... [Huffington Post]

FILLING UP ON MILK
Jennifer Hudson recently shot a Got Milk? ad. The Oscar and Grammy winner's new ad reads: "Center stage, silver screen, joyful new mom. How do I keep this show on the road? Milk. Its wholesome goodness helps make my family strong at every stage. Talk about a powerful performance." The Chicago native is psyched that her new ad hits magazines during Black History Month. "I feel like if I'm going to lead somebody in the right direction it might be in the right direction of health with milk, right?," she said. Maybe she should get her fiance David Otunga to have some milk, too. He's bulked up for his WWF debut. It's sure to help him with a long future in wrestling. [StyleList.com]

WHOA T.O.
One of the sexiest men in the NFL seems to be crying out for more attention. Buffalo Bills wide receiver Terrell Owens already stripped down to his birthday suit to launch his VH1 reality show last year. Now, he seems to be getting all gussied up for the fashion scene.
On Feb. 17, the Alabama born stud hit the runway during New York's Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Looking like a cross between Eddie Murphy as James Brown (on vintage 'Saturday Night Live') and Ben Stiller as 'Zoolander' – the world's first white male supermodel, Owens strutted his stuff at the A*Muse Fashion Show at Amnesia NYC.

ON THE COMEBACK TRAIL
Chris Brown is on the right track, according to his Richmond, Va., judge. The pop star reported back to court to discuss how much community service he's completed so far.
Right now, the 'Crawl' singer has done 32 of the mandated 180 days of work, as well as attended a majority of his domestic violence classes. Judge Schnegg said, "Looks like you're doing really, really, well," before approving Brown's plans to travel abroad. Go Chris. [YBF]

WILD CHILD
He's been to hell and back. And 'Diff'rent Stokes' star Gary Coleman seems to still be dancing with the devil. In one of the wildest viral videos that ever circulated on the web, the pint-sized former child star took no tea for the fever when he appeared on the TV show, 'The Insider,' last week.
Watch what happens when Coleman talks for the first time about his now infamous mug shot. He discusses his recent time in jail and answers the question of what led him there. The panel asks "WHAT HAPPENED GARY??" And boy oh boy did he have some choice words for them.

There is nothing wrong with interracial relationship or marriage as long as it is genuine. In the times that we live in now mixed relationships shouldn't be an issue. I don't see anything wrong with the Kardashian Sisters. They might be considered sluts by most, but there are girls like them everywhere you go.... even Black Women too. If these brother choose to date or marry them, then great, it's nobody's business. Black Women should cool down and stop getting bitter over Black men dating White women, because Black Women aren't saints either.

I read somewhere that Blacks feel mixed marriages weaken the African-American solidarity. Come on ! can this be one of the reasons why black women are the way they are when it comes to black men dating white women? What solidarity? Look at the way blacks are treating blacks, so is it a wonder why some brothers and sisters too venture out of the box?

Well...what can i learn from the Kardashian sister about loving Black Men. Not a God Damn thing. In fact I was at the supermarket this morning and as I waited on line, I enjoyed a 2 articles from 2 major magazines (Star and US Weekly) how the Kardashians are brokenhearted and suffering. Kim feels Reggie is cheating on her (And he is) and the one that looks like China is already in marriage counseling (Didn't they just tie the knot?) When you have to force a man to give you a ring that seems pretty desperate to me. And, when you marry a man before you meet his children...that's even worse. The Kardashians are all about themselves. They are media Darlings/Whores and when you lay down with dogs...you know the saying....You come up with Kardashians.
P.S. The woman that wrote the book has not done her research and definitely will NOT be paid from me. Deuces.

THESE GOLD DIGGERS CAN'T TEACH ME A DAMN THING ABOUT BLACK MEN. THE FACT THAT I HAVE BEEN MARRIED TO A WONDERFUL BLACK MAN FOR 28 YEARS MINUS ALL OF THE DRAMA THAT THEY CARRY WITH THEM, SPEAKS VOLUMES. THIS FACT MORE THAN ANYTHING LETS ME KNOW THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN TEACH ME, NOR IS THERE ANYTHING THAT I CARE TO LEARN FROM THEM... THEY NEED TO GET OVER THEMSELVES. IF THOSE 2 MEN WANT THOSE KIND OF WOMEN IN THEIR LIVES, IT'S THEIR PEROGATIVE AND FURTHER MORE... WHO CARES!

First of all, no WM in hollywood is even looking to hook up with Kim or Khloe or it would have already happened. Reggie and Lamar would not even be on their radar. So our brothers will automatically pick up the left-overs because they think that once they are on the bandwagon with a white woman, they have now won the lottery or their ticket to hollywood. Like, Janet said, there is one out there for everyone. Color is not the problem. It's just that WM don't know how to approach BW because we're not that attracted to them.

I wouldn't be aiming for a Reggie Bush nor a Lamar Odom. Just because a man has money does not make him desirable. Second, the Kardashians are famous for being famous and nothing else. Theonly one in t e household with any claim to real fame is Bruce Jenner. Third, I don't believe everything I see, hear or read. There are plenty of black men that want to be with and prefer black women. We just need to learn how to be more sociable and make the effort to actually socialize.
