I haven't read through the replies (I will) and I know I'm a little late to this party but I'm a mom and I don't think that it's the toughest job in the world. I've said it before and I will again: There are a lot of things that I would consider tougher than being a mom when it comes to occupations including, going…

Seriously Columbus Short may want to call Isaiah Washington, Shonda Rhimes has no problem writing a character out for their poor decisions on or off the set!

I had to go back and watch the video because I forgot she was even at the table...her entire reaction is more "can we get to the hot topics" than "go head girl, get your man"...I am working on getting to that don't give a fuck Whoopi status.

And this is why Ebony and Essence still exist, so please for the next poster that questions the necessity of magazines that focus on black as beautiful just send them this link.

I thought that by now it wouldn't be a "thing'' but years into my career and I have been the first black female hired at the corporate level more times than I care to admit, including now. I agree on the pretending it isn't there because frankly, it can be exhausting. In the back of my mind it's like representing…

This only works in reverse. After getting two children through their teen years while still being capable of having children (mid thirties), I have realized that I am infinitely more inclined to do have a puppy than a baby recognizing that I have control over one of the situations more than the other (my dog has…

Since so many fans think that they are experiencing a connection with their favorite celebrity, I'm surprised that "social media manager" to the stars is not shrouded in mystique in an effort to create the air of approachability that many attempt to convey. It's a great job and I obvously can understand why one would…

This story elicits 0% surprise on my end. They are the next level of those who are inspired by "gritty, urban" environments and watched The Wire,

This. I mean, seriously, whatever happened to just skipping the topic. If you click on it when you know that it's something that you feel sensitive about isn't that a bit masochistic, why not just control your curiosity? There is way too much, please don't discuss this, report this, write that, because...my…

Joinging the club of parenthood immediately makes you the target of a lot of jokes like this. My daughter saw this and had momentary appreciation for my sense of style, so thanks for the article!

There is a part of me that often dreams of selling what I have, packing my few remaining bags and heading for Costa Rica to make my living teaching english or being an extremely remote based sales executive....that part of me doesn't have children under the age of "able to thrive with little connection to physicians,…

I'll tell you what, I have seen so many judgments against talent when there is a perceived change in a sport that it's beyond ridiculous. I just wish that one person who throws around the "so strong" "so athletic" but

"For good reason"..what is that?

It says she has two sons, so apparently, no worries?

No, no consent necessary...and certainly no consent necessary if someone chooses to react violently I guess.

I agree with the premise of the argument and find it ridiculous that with everything going on this was the battlefield that the Army wanted to die on, I guess it didn't require any investment of money or resource so why the hell not?

Debra, you are speaking out of both sides of your mouth.

I love how there are MANY pics of her demonstrating love for and involvement with her kids but you went for the one that demonstrated a stereotypical image to drum up the bias. I'm not saying that she was right for leaving the kids in the car but there are clearly other things that impact this situation and support…

Amazed that ordinary citizens are giving the "he was protecting his brothers speech" on this one. It's all well and good until you stop holding "law enforcment" accountable for what they do to others and your own child, sister, mother, family member becomes an unwitting target of an overzealous police officer.

Why cop to being "pretty iffy on tutus...". For fucks sake this woman, any woman or any person, that gets out and pushes their body to meet the physical demands (not to mention the preparation for one) should not be the point of snarky bullshit. Yes, I know that this would be a perfect world scenario but since I'm…
