I am the exact opposite, the older I get the more mellow my taste has become. I LOVE Miss Anita Baker. If the venue was small enough, I’d have been singing “Body & Soul” right with her :-)

Lol! I’m 34 and I was just a little young to be really super into New Edition, but my cousins that are between 41 and 45 LIVE for them. I don’t really like concerts that much (crowds make me a bit uncomfortable) but I would kick my best friend down the stairs to see Prince live.

I was simply responding to your question, why would I need a hug? These shows are booked months in advance, it’s not like they just booked it two weeks ago, so no I don’t wonder about the timing. He still has other children and a wife to support, the man has to make his money. I figure he didn’t think his daughter…

As far as I know, especially with New Edition reuniting off and on over the years, he has been performing all along. Not huge venues or anything, but if memory serves he was performing with New Edition the night Whitney died. Old school shows get a decent turn out.

I’m not sure if I would necessarily pay to see Bobby (although we share the same b-day so I have a little love for him), I would absolutely pay to see Tweet and would probably get my life during ‘Every Little Step’ and Juvenile doing ‘Back That Ass Up’ :-)

A lot of black people, particularly that grew up in the 80s and 90s, absolutely do. My slightly older cousins go to these type of shows all the time.

I was telling a friend earlier that it’s a strange feeling to be impressed with someone’s professional accomplishments while absolutely despising them as a person. He is truly horrible.

I am just petty enough to really, really enjoy this.

They were actually both born at the same hospital (Akron City) a few years apart. I live in Youngstown and the local news here has been eating it up.

Or live here. Greetings from Youngstown. I am also not even the slightest bit surprised.

Card carrying far left liberal and I think the behavior LD outlines is disturbing and Jia twisting herself in knots to excuse it is beyond disappointing, but not surprising in the least. Her flippant answer though? Pissed me off enough to go find some blogs where the author doesn't have such an obvious disdain for…

It just dawned on me that after I read the halloween stories article I have bookmarked, I'm done with this site. I'm not trying to make a big announcement but I may as well give my time, clicks and ad revenue to writers who don't blatantly hold their readers in contempt. The way Jezebel has handled this, that…

That's exactly what I was thinking! I was like "man, the only things Kevin D. Williamson and I will ever agree on is Lena Dunham is fucked the fuck up and today is in fact Monday."

Luvvie is everything! I don't have any other blogs off the top of my head to recommend but if you're into youtube videos Bondy Blue and 4itsrox are fabulous as well as The Socialite Life. Those ladies keep it all the way real.

A retraction? Because they quoted her book directly? I hope she gets laughed out of court and I also hope that blog doesn't back down one bit. I've never liked her but now I find her absolutely repulsive.

I'm with you. I'll sing to the rafters that if she was a man a much larger stink would be being made.

She's suing them? Wow, I can't with this asshole.

I'm as left wing as they come and I am disturbed a) by the things she herself admitted to doing, b) her flippant attitude about it and c) the fact that jezebel and gawker are acting like this is some right wing conspiracy when they are simply quoting her own words. Let, I don't know, Zach Braff or somebody write a…

Jezebel and gawker are both blowing my mind. They mention that a right wing blogger called her out, but neglect to mention other little tidbits from her memoir such as admitting to bribing her sister for kisses on the lips, her favorite tv shows as long as grace would "lay on" her and masturbating with her sister in…

Well the first I heard of it was from a liberal blogger, Awesomely Luvvie. And she was as disturbed as I am by it. I came here to see what Jez was going to have to say about their little darling, but it seems like they're just going to gloss over it so they can keep fangirling all over Lena's mediorce ass.
