In the meantime, here is a review from Los Angeles based entertainment producer Chrys Yvette  who saw the show 

Your show brought tears to my eyes, especially the ending. It was a perfect depiction of the Love childhood friends can share to help their families understand the impact rejection has on every aspect of their lives. Thank you for saying so beautifully what one of my dearest friends in the world could not say to us before he left this earth. LOVE conquers All.

OK NOW TO THE BITZ THIS WEEK


R.I.P. BITZ 


A Muslim funeral for Muhammad Ali on Thursday drew thousands of admirers to the boxer's hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, where mourners prayed over the body which lay in a casket covered with a black and gold cloth.  .

An estimated reported 16,000 people, representing many races and creeds, attended the jenazah, or "funeral" in Arabic, where he was repeatedly feted as "the people's champion."

Ali died on Friday of septic shock in an Arizona hospital. He was 74.



Ali and his family planned his funeral for 10 years, making sure it would honor his Muslim faith.

U.S. President Barack Obama also praised Ali on Thursday in a Facebook live broadcast from the White House, showing off a copy of the book, "GOAT: A Tribute to Muhammad Ali," and a signed pair of boxing gloves gifted to him by Ali.

"It's very rare where a figure captures the imagination of the entire world," Obama said. "He was one of a kind and in my book he'll always be the greatest."

Ali is due to be buried on Friday, after a funeral procession going to various spots in Ali's childhood (his childhood home, his schools, his first boxing training center) and before one final goodbye when thousands more will gather for an interfaith service.

Luminaries including former U.S. President Bill Clinton, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and comedian Billy Crystal will attend Friday's event, at the KFC Yum Center.

The late civil rights leader Malcolm X's daughter Attallah Shabazz, who's father led Ali to Muslim faith, is scheduled to read a poem at the memorial. Actor Will Smith and boxer Lennox Lewis are scheduled to be pall bearers. 

TV-ONe will air his funeral without commercials at 2PM ET/1PM CT 
Job well done, champ.

 As expected, the game catapulted ABC to first place for the night in overall audience (16.5 million) and across each of the key adult demographics. 
The Warriors lead the Cavs 2-1 in the series heading to Game 4 on Friday.
Game 4 of the 2016 NBA Finals is tonight at Quicken Loans Arena as the Cavaliers try to tie the series at 2-2 against the Golden State Warriors.

This past weekend, newly crowned Miss USA and Washington D.C native  Deshauna Barber became an overnight sensation due in large part to a single answer she delivered during the competition.

When asked during the pageant whether integrating women into combat roles “put political correctness over our military’s ability to perform,” the 26-year-old Army reservist said, “We are just as tough as men. As a commander of my unit, I’m powerful, I am dedicated and it is important that we recognize that gender does not limit us in the United States.” The comment drew rapturous applause, boosted her to victory and won her fans across the country. With her unconventional background and non-traditional looks, Barber inspired response from women of color, particularly darker-hued African-Americans, that surprised even her.

Barber says that she is glad that she has been able to inspire other women of color, some of whom have informed her they plan to get into the pageant business themselves now because of her, and she hopes that her success will lift the spirits of all women who feel marginalized.

Congrats to Miss Barber and we hope that her platform can inspire many women of color to fulfill their dreams unlike these idiots who have commented  negatively on social media about her looks (SEE WHYZ  BELOW) 





Bobby Brown sat down with ABC’s Robin Roberts for an exclusive discussion on “20/20.” The emotionally charged chat marked his first in-depth interview since the death of his daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown last year. 
During the episode, the “Every Little Step” singer gave fans a glimpse into his tumultuous, drug-fueled relationship with Whitney Houston, the days leading up to Bobbi Kristina’s death and more. He made confessions that shocked viewers and Roberts alike. Brown, 47, recounted tales of cocaine binges, domestic abuse and his and Houston’s shortcomings as parents.
Below are the eight most shocking revelations Bobby Brown made during his “20/20” interview:
Bobby Bought a Georgia Mansion He Believes Was Haunted — And Had Sex With a Ghost:
While the emotional interview was largely meant to discuss Brown’s marriage, drug abuse and his daughter’s unexpected passing, he was able to touch on other subjects as well. During the discussion, the performer opened up to Roberts about a mansion he purchased in Georgia some time ago. He claimed the pricey pad was haunted, telling “20/20” viewers he learned that the hard way.
This interview was definitely haunting to say the least. We wonder what Roberts was thinking while he was talking about having coitus with a goblin. We would have said "So you busted one with a ghost or did you call ghostbusters." LOL


Well, not everyone is happy with the Bobby Brown interview, especially his former mother in law, Cissy Houston.  Houston issued a statement to People on Wednesday, the day after Brown's interview with Robin Roberts aired on ABC, saying the special appeared to fixate on her daughter instead of his life.
