On Oscars Sunday, Guess Where We’ll Be? (Hint: In Wakanda—and on Facebook)!
Remember last February, when we were basking in the billion-dollars worth of black excellence that accompanied Black Panther? This February may not currently feel as excellent, but we’re looking forward to reflecting on happier times when the Black Panther cast and crew hit the red carpet this Sunday (and hopefully, scoop us some well-deserved awards).…

The SAG Awards Tale: The Handmaid's Tale's Amanda Brugel Talks #MeToo and Gets Gorgeous for the SAGs
If, like me, you’ve devotedly watched The Handmaid’s Tale (or sometimes hate-watched, because simulated rapes, hangings, misogyny and slave allegories are so fun!) you’re no doubt familiar with actress Amanda Brugel, who plays the Waterford’s Martha, Rita.

Acting Up: The Screen Actors Guild Celebrates 25 Years in High Style
Yara Shahidi wasn’t even born when the first Screen Actors Guild Awards ceremony took place 25 years ago.

With the second major awards show in as many weeks, it’s safe to say awards season is officially in full swing.

PSA of the Day: Stop Asking Women If They’re Pregnant (Because Sometimes, It’s Just a Food Baby)
You know what’s really dope? When you’re out here, living your best new-monied life, getting your step-and-repeat and twirl on in a Michael Kors gown (that you could easily pay for, but were instead loaned) on a Golden Globes afterparty red carpet where you’re nobody’s plus-one.

High-Low in Hollywood: Lupita Nyong'o Wore a $45 Shoe to the Golden Globes
Loved Lupita Nyong’o’s Wakanda-worthy look at this year’s Golden Globes?
