Pharrell said he's the 'New Black' ... and then ...

Pharrell Williams (Twitter) It seems super producer-writer-singer and ' Happy ' man Pharrell Williams has angered some folks ( again ).  This time controversy centers around comments about race during a recent interview with Oprah on OWN. While ( again ) addressing the criticism from those who say he did not include an African American on his GIRL album cover ( he did by the way ), Pharrell defined himself as The New Black; quoting here, the portion of his statement that went viral:     "The New Black doesn't blame other races for our issues. The New Black dreams and realizes that it's not pigmentation: it's a mentality and it's either going to work for you or it's going to work against you.    And you've got to pick the side you'r e going to be on."

Teenage Fashionista Turning Heads!

Zeydana (Instagram) I was perusing the Internet recently when I stumbled across a young J-lo look-a-like  rocking an uber-chic men's inspired suit and killer fedora. The headline read , "Are You Feeling Zendaya’s Menswear-Inspired Suit?"   My answer was a resounding, 'YES!! But, who's Zendaya ??"  Well, I quickly found out!   Actress/singer Zendaya Coleman (HelloBeautiful.com) Several Google searches later, I discovered the the pretty multi-racial, teen-aged actress-singer-dancer Zendaya Coleman-- simply known as Zeydana --first hit the scene at age 13 in the Disney comedy 'Shake It Up'.    Well, whoo knew?   I no longer have 'Disney TV-aged chil'ren at home, but if I did, surely I'd have been in the known about ... Zeydana!   SURELY! " It seems, over the past year or so she has been turning heads in a big way with  her impeccable style sense.  Now, at age the 17-year old 'triple threat' has fas...

GOOD-BYE TO A GRAND LADY

Wikimedia Commons Dr. Dorothy Height, who as longtime president of the National Council of Negro Women was the leading female voice of the 1960s civil rights movement, has died. She was 98. A Howard University Hospital spokesman said she died early Tuesday morning. As a teenager, Height marched in New York's Times Square shouting, ``Stop the lynching.'' In the 1950s and 1960s, she was the leading woman helping the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and other leading activists orchestrate the civil rights movement. The late activist C. DeLores Tucker once called Height an icon to all African-American women. Dr. Dorothy Irene Height_(March 24, 1912 - April 20, 2010) Produced and voiced by Kim Lampkins
