I actually thought the same thing, and Obama has a tendency to make decisions with the “long run” in mind, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he and his team factored this in with their reasoning.

I don’t even know what his version of “culture” is but this comes to mind as a possibility:

I’m going to miss him :-(

She totally claims that - LA Reid shaped her initial image, and it worked FWIW. It’s a pretty common tactic - use the “urban” route until you’re popular enough to cross over and get that “pop” money.

The other thing that always pissed me off about the reaction to that sex tape is that wasn’t it basically revenge porn? She was with him for 4 years or something, they recorded it for their own personal use, and he was pissed she left him so he released it. Instead of crawling into a hole and dying, she (and her mom)…

Super random and not related, but remember when P!nk was black? Seriously, we all thought she was this light-skinned mixed girl with pipes, lol - those were the days. #CulturalAppropriationFTW

I am HERE for Stephanie Tanner!

Omg, the fact that people are taking her proclamation of earnings and transferring the debt amount into their joint seriously is insane - all of the research and fact checking is not necessary. She was obviously fucking with everyone and being petty. I found it hilarious.

“This is part of the hysteria of the people who oppose my Trump endorsement,” Christie said.

She has an Oscar, FWIW..... she was fantastic in Dreamgirls.....

I watched it. All of it. At first I was like, this is horrible but something about it kept me watch and next thing I know I’m on episode 9 like “well, I’ve come this far.” and just finished it. It was bad. But so bad it was good. I enjoyed it. I can’t tell you why, but I did. And I am really hoping for a gay character…

That would have been AMAZING.

I came to say the same thing. God forbid she was a scientist too - maybe even a scientist from NY who knows the city well? An engineer for the MTA? So many ways that could have gone. *heavy sigh* I love Leslie though, and a job is a job so I can’t be too mad at her. I’ll see it when it hits Netflix.

Jennifer Hudson or Mary J. Blige would have been great too, IMO

Here is a short synopsis of what happened as well (it’s not the best put together, but it gives some good images and sound for reference). An appropriation museum would be AMAZING.

She has to be some rich family’s daughter, right?

Do you know what we call Trump’s NY real estate holding? “Rounding Error”.

OMG

Dear fellow black people: I know it’s easier said than done, but WE NEED TO TELL OUR OWN STORIES.

Hahahaha, very true. And what makes that even funnier is that I just wrote a pretty lengthy response about why if I had to choose now, I’d choose Hillary. *kanye shrug*
