Sitting on the Couch With Michelle Obama

Everyone knows that I have a SUPERCRUSH on First Lady, Michelle Obama.  I love everything about her: her eyebrows, her hair, her eyes, her arms, her intellect, her passion, her poise . . . I really do mean everything!  Mrs. Obama graces the cover of Glamour Magazine looking beautiful.  Here is a snippet from her interview with Katie Couric.

Mike Tyson on Oprah

Did you all see the interview?

Wow! I saw Mike in a whole different light. He is extremely emotional, rather he has a lot of past hurts. And I think that's why he has that hard shell.

He loves and lives for his children. When they showed pictures of his children I saw another man. He was sooo happy! OMG -- it was too cute. To describe Mike as cute is just so weird to me but that's how I felt after the interview.

Traces of My Tresses

There has been a lot of talk about Black Hair these days. I'm not sure if it was all planned. I wonder did Tyra know about Chris Rock's Good Hair? Anywho, I think whether coincidence or not, these talks on Black Hair has been beneficial.

I wear my hair in locks, but I have had relaxers, weaves, braids, afros, mohawks, bonded hair on caps, sew ins, gel back ponytails, my hair colored -- plain and simple I have done it all. And I must admit that I truly love black hair because it is so versatile. We, black women are hella creative with our hair-- anything they can do we can do better.

Sway Magazine recently had an article entitled Crowing Glory where they interviewed 4 women about their hair. One woman had an TWA (teeny weeny afro), another has locks, another has an afro, and one wears her hair in long weaves. These women tell their hair story and speak about the politics of hair.
