In Remembrance

Today marks the seventh anniversary of the death of singer and actress Aaliyah, one of my favorite entertainers I still remember when I first caught on to her music with "One in a Million." She went on to star in a few films and make hit records with producers Timbaland and Missy E., she also had great dance moves in her videos, often with choreography by Fatima Robinson.

I know that the sky was the limit for the talented singer/actress who was taken from us too soon and inspired so many. Aaliyah was in the words of Martin Payne "Classy without showing all the assy," something many singers today can learn from.

So, Miss Info has a few excerpts from Faith Evans' soon to be released book Keep the Faith...peep excerpts here (courtesy of theybf.com). There Faith writes about her first meeting with Tupac and what Biggie did when he found out that she allegedly slept with him...I don't know like Rick James said "Cocaine is a hell of a drug." Anything is possible...

So have you ever heard a song and soon it's on instant replay in your mind? Well, that's what Solange's single "I Decided" is for me. The song is catchy and definitley different from anything out there right now. Better still, for Solange it's different than her debut album which came out five years ago.

Beyonce's younger sister has also stepped up her fab game choosing to wear cute minis and bold colors

Her latest single is SandCastle and the Sol-Angel and the Hadley Street Dreams is set to drop Tuesday, Aug. 26.

Hi Guys, I know it's been a while but I will begin to post more regularly I promise!! It's been an interesting few weeks.

So, let's start off the new and improved blog with a late review...Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, I know, it's about a bunch of kids in their early 20s and while some of the scenarios were blown a little out of proportion, the core storyline about the friendship of four lifelong friends was awesome.

Also in theaters Tropic Thunder...I haven't had the pleasure of catching this film but reviews from friends have been really great.

Have a happy Monday!

So Sad

It has been confirmed that comedian Bernie Mac passed away early Saturday morning due to complications from pneumonia. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter. Hollywood has truly lost a star.
