Review: The Family That Preys and Characters In Tyler Perry Movies

I went to see the movie this Friday and was pleasantly surprised.  I am always one to support black artists, Tyler Perry included.  Heck, I even watch House of Payne on TBS.  I expected to see Tyler in his drag Madea outfit and throwing out random jokeish coonery.   But this movie wasn’t dedicated to Madea, you [...]

Vibe Covers: Ciara v. Toni Braxton

Here is my random Saturday thought. For all you youngin’s Ciara was NOT the first woman to pose nude on the cover of Vibe.
