The American Idol performance was my favorite moment. The Essence Festival as well.

LMFAO.

Ooh. I'll be seeing the January 5th show.

On first listen? Pretty much all of them.

It's playing tomorrow too, at two in the afternoon. *TiVo*

I've been listening to the album a lot lately. Still moves my soul.

She probably could but I doubt it will happen.

Ohhh is she going to pull us onstage? I'll feed a hobo with a quickness.

There's no other news? No other dates announced? Nada?

Ohhh I forgot she was doing a song for the soundtrack. Lemme listen.

Well that's what counts. LMFAO YES. Lawd and the part where someone asked Janet about putting Rihanna on the front of the magazine?! "We could put Rihanna on the fro--" "Uh no, that won't work." Subliminal shade LMAO. I was the only one laughing.

And I completely understand that. As Blatin said, that's what matters, not critics or sales figures. But the heart of the play/book was lost, with some other very important messages as well. All I'm saying is that it could have been better and I expected the best considering the movie's derivative.

Where are those from?

I doubt that. I don't know, this should have been for "colored girls" what Angels In America is for the gay community (though it touched on much more), popular or not. Tyler really fucked this up, I'm sorry to say. He wanted his own Precious and ended up with a negrafied telenovela. I feel you beux.

Has you seent it yet?

Yesss. "FIDDY KAY FO' A VERZ, NO ALBURM OWT?!" It's a hell of a lot better than her talking about her head game and how tight her pussy is and such.

At the end of the day, that's very true, but I guarantee you very few of the people who have seen the movie have seen the play or read the book. Maybe I'm over-analytical, but when I watch a movie, the material and the performances have to be strong enough to make me believe in the story and/or character. It's blatantly obvious to me if one or the other is lacking.

Ditto, Jamaican accent, grunting, growling and all. "'CUZ DAT WUDDA MUDDAFUCKIN' MONSTA DEW!"

Not in that context, at least not anyone I know. You could tell he purposefully put it in there, especially when paired with the close-up on her face and her being decked out in diamonds, makeup, and silk sitting alone at a restaurant. It made me cringe. I'm very, very disappointed because I had read the book and expected so much out of this, I'm not overreacting. Critics too are attacking Tyler (and not the actresses) because he dropped the ball. He had a brilliant work of art and a slew of talented actresses to work with and he still couldn't get out of his soap opera mentality. It's not you. Ooh naw gerl...

Come to think of it, Pink Friday should be leaking any day now.

True. He need not ever write again. Whew Lawd.

How?! I could tell by the direction alone. Then the writing, you could clearly separate what was Ntozake's and what was his. And dear God, the scene where Janet was on the phone at dinner made me sick to my stomach. "Baby I know we had a fight last night..." Really, bitch? Who says that? I agree about Janet's acting, but I blame Tyler. All of the actresses struggled to a certain degree, some more than others, because of the material they were given. You can't do but so well if your character has no sense of individuality and has lines that vague. Dead horse, Janet needs to get away from Tyler. If she can find a movie that gives her a more unique character and doesn't focus on a million other characters at the same time, I think she'd surprise us all. Evidence is in her first crying scene, when she was going on about her specific pains in reference to Kimberly, I honestly believed it.

I love love love the way she's been looking in London, the hair and the outfits. If the album comes out in January/February, we should be getting a single very soon, no?

I swear I hated Nicki at first but after Monster and Roman's Revenge I've fallen madly in love with her. She can spit. "Well bitch if you ain't shittin' then get off the pot!"

LMFAO. I guess I wasn't the only one trying to peak at his ass silhouette in the shower scene. Speaking of, Khalil Kain's nude scene... nasty.
