Whether or not, you do or you don’t watch the news, I’m pretty sure you heard Obama is for same-sex marriage. I’m also sure that if you’re a Christian, your pastor had some words to say about it Sunday.
Jay-Z is just one of many celebrities that are supporting Obama and his choice to publicly announce being for same sex-marriage. Recently in an interview with CNN, Jay-Z gave his thoughts on if this announcement will cost Obama votes, and his thoughts on same-sex marriage.
On same-sex marriage: “I’ve always thought it as something that was still holding the country back. What people do in their own homes is their business and you can choose to love whoever you love. That’s their business. [It] is no different than discriminating against blacks. It’s discrimination plain and simple.”
Every time I hear more and more about what happened that rainy day last month between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, I get just a little more upset. Especially when you have ignorant people like Zimmerman’s friends coming to his defense saying dumb stuff like “all Trayvon had to do was respond” when in reality all Zimmerman had to do was follow the orders of the 911 dispatcher and leave Trayvon alone.
To get an even more detailed description of what happened that night, watch the video above to hear what Trayvon’s girlfriend had to say who was on the phone with him while all of this was going down.
I remember when I was on my way to a birthday party and I made a pit stop into 7 Eleven, while in there I seen a tabloid with a photo of a reenactment of what supposedly happened the night Whitney Houston died. The photo showed that Whitney was face down on the floor. However according to Whitney Houston’s sister Pat she was in the tube. When Oprah asked Pat how she got in there, Pat said she doesn’t know how Whitney got in the tube, but she does know they had to get her out.
I’m not going to write too much about Oprah’s interview which aired tonight because I’m currently watching it since I live on the West Coast.
In the first part of the interview Oprah talks with Bobbi Kristina, and Bobbi admits she can still hear her mother’s voice at times. Check out a clip below:
In cased you missed the live performance, or just simply live on the West Coast; Mary J. Blige performed her song ‘Why’ moments ago on the American Idol stage.
