Issa Didn’t Cheat on Lawrence in Real Life, and Angela Valdes Didn’t Snitch on Ghost. So Stop Sending the Actors Hate Mail
I hate Tariq St. Patrick and want him to die already. After four seasons of watching him behave like an ungrateful, bitchy, ho-ass child (minors can get cursed at after they hit puberty), any Power scene featuring him now physically angers me. Not even Assistant U.S. Attorney Angela Valdes has had that impact on me,…

Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood Is Back. Keyshia Cole Seems Happier, Hazel-E Acts Thirsty and Teairra Mari Looks Tipsy
What I love most about Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood is what I hated most about living in Los Angeles: the people. I’m not talking about L.A. natives, who are, more often than not, fine-fine-fine-fine-fine-fine, whew. I’m referring to the transients—specifically, those people who move to L.A. with dreams of being the next big rapper…

Donald Trump Jr. Is as Old as Patti LaBelle’s 1st Solo Album; He Ain’t a ‘Boy,’ Beloved
In October 1977, Patti LaBelle released her self-titled debut album. Two months later, on New Year’s Eve, Donald Trump Jr. was born. LaBelle’s eponymous debut was released to critical acclaim; the spawn of that Sith Lord sitting in the White House, hollering at cable news all the time—eh, not so much. The two creations do…

Who Can Stay and Go on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta
We have reached the end of another season of Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, and therefore it is time to evaluate everyone’s usefulness. Some cast members gave their all and were a delight, while others gave their all and I couldn’t give a decimal of a damn about them on this show. Feel free to…

Didn’t We Almost Have It All, Joseline Hernandez?
Five years ago, a woman dressed like Sensational Queen Sherri from the pro-wrestling world was introduced to me as Joseline Hernandez, the self-professed Puerto Rican Princess and then-sidepiece of the legendary producer Stevie J. Joseline had dreams of becoming a rap star, and while she was one of the biggest messes I had ever seen…

I Love Starz’s Power, but I Hate All of These Characters
Very few shows can entice me to spend more money on what already feels like an oppressive cable bill. However, when the press connect does not come through, I will circle back to Showtime in order to get my Homeland fix. But honestly (truly), no show really makes me hit “order” as fast as Starz’s…

It’s Not the Blacks, Tinashe, It’s You
When your name is “Tinashe,” black folks don’t need Scooby Doo or a member of the Mystery Machine to guess that race. Yet the singer-songwriter-dancer is arguing that the lot of us don’t completely embrace her, a mixed-race woman, even though she considers herself to be a black woman. It was one of the more…

James Comey Is My New Favorite Real Housewife
Hell hath no fury like a self-righteous messy bitch who lives for the drama of being scorned. In what has rightly been sold as the most anticipated congressional hearing in modern political history, former FBI Director James Comey appeared before the Senate Intelligence Committee to publicly contradict various claims by President Donald Trump Sweet Potato…

Videos of Racists Being Racist Go Viral, and Then What?
Roses are red, violets are blue, America is full of racists, what else is new? That was my initial feeling when recently greeted by two videos floating around Al Gore’s Internet featuring two separate instances of overt racism. The other was curiosity over how that loudmouthed woman in Walmart or that wheelchair-bound man who reminded…

Sean Hannity Is a Lying, Sick Sack of Stupid
Of all the reasons to loathe that noxious loudmouth Sean Hannity, my top choice is that the Fox News host consistently has the nerve to serve his lavish amount of stupidity with sides of hubris and sanctimony. Shortly before going on vacation, Hannity did an interview with the Huffington Post and pretended that his peddling…
