According to People Magazine, Robin Thicke and Paula Patton have mutually decided to separate. They released a statement saying:

"We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time"

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton met in high school. He was 14. They married in 2005 and in 2010 they welcomed a son named Julian Fuego.

It's not clear why the couple have separated. Although I'm sure many will speculate that Robin has cheated or something along those lines but I'm not going there. I really don't think it has anything to do with infidelity. Robin and Paula's careers are moving in different directions. Robin is becoming one of R&B's most prominent voices and Paula's career in film is getting better and better with each movie she stars in. Hopefully this won't turn into a messy Hollywood scandal or drama. When the public demands more and more of your time it puts a strain on personal relationships.


I wish Paula Patton and Robin Thicke the best. I really do hope they remain friends and co-parent properly for the sake of their son. It's a rarity these days when people are able to commit to just working with each other and being there for their children. Maybe after some time goes by they will get back together. One can only hope.

There are many feminist movements I can get behind when it encourages a woman to fight for equal rights, but this is WAY OVER THE TOP! I will NEVER EVER EVER join this movement because its disgusting, unsanitary and just flat out STUPID!

There is a trend amongst feminist bloggers and activists that is called free bleeding. Free Bleeding is supposed to be a movement to free women of the bonds of man. The definition of this idiotic movement is as follows:

Free Bleeding: in which a woman who is menstruating chooses to use feminine products no longer, in exchange for allowing her blood to flow “freely” out of her body, staining her clothing and running down her thighs to wherever it may end up.

The idea behind this movement has 2 parts. Check it out via the Modern Women Digest:

"One, is that a woman’s time of the month should not be considered something unclean and unnatural, something to be hidden and cleaned up hastily before it has the chance to offend anyone who may become privy to the fact that said woman’s body is evacuating her loins of unused baby blood. The second, being that tampons, pads, and other feminine hygiene products are “man” made inventions, intended to inadvertently rape a woman during her period, thus furthering her victim status as a woman living in a world run by men. These two reasons combined, have produced the idea that women need to make a stand against the practice of wearing products which collect, absorb, and discard the menstrual flow. That by letting it run freely, is the way nature intended us to deal with our monthly."

LOL this story had me cracking up when I first heard it. This made my freaking day! Here's how the satirical story went:

Justin Bieber was at a Starbucks in LA. He went to the counter and ordered a Caramel Apple Machiatto. But the barista refused to serve him. He was refused because he didn't have on a shirt and his pants were sagging showing his underwear. His attire violated company policy and was refused service unless he dressed appropriately. Justin went ballistic. Berating the barista and threatening to have him beaten up by his bodyguard. Blake Griffin over heard the altercation and stepped in on the barista's behalf. Blake and Justin had a few words going back and forth, Blake was pushed and Blake responded by slapping Justin to the floor. According to a witness Blake Griffin slapped the shit out of Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber ended up stumbling out of the Starbucks appearing to be crying. Police were called but Justin Bieber was gone before the Police arrived.

So Sad, How HILARIOUSLY Sad! LOL

Blake Griffin and Justin Bieber have denied the rumors and it is an internet hoax. Just like the satirical story of Michael Jordan being robbed in Chicago at a signing or the stories about Sinbad and Jackie Chan being dead. Same thing.

Shirley Temple was and is America's Sweetheart. She was a child actress of the 1930s. She is arguably one of the most famous child actors in the world. Her movies are timeless.

As a child I watched Shirley Temple films. They came on TV often on the weekends about 1:00 in the afternoon. I used to sit in front of the TV and just become mesmerized by her presence and superior dance skills. 10 minutes into the movie I would be trying to mimic her dance steps and sing all the songs. She was truly infectious.


Shirley Temple was born in 1928. She became an actress at age 3, but her popularity took off at age 10. She was a household name after her first film War Babies in 1932. After this film her career took off. Shirley Temple was making an unprecedented $50,000 a film! During this time it was unheard of and absolutely a tell tell of her high demand. From 1935 to 1938, 20th Century Fox and Shirley Temple dominated. Her movies were some of the top movies in the country. For four years straight Shirley Temple was a box office gold mine. Everything from Curly Top to the Littlest Rebel peaked at #1 in the box office. During Great Depression Shirley Temple's movies created hope in a time where people saw no end to the suffering.



Shirley Temple's fame was so popular little girls were wearing her signature curls for decades. From the 1930s to the 1970s Shirley Temple was the "It Girl". Her name sold countless merchandise items: dresses, shoes, hats, dolls, etc. But her acting career slowed down tremendously after 1939. She ended up terminating her contract with 20th Century Fox in 1940. She continued to act but eventually retired at the age of 22. She got married to Charles Black, changed her last name to Temple Black and started a new career as a foreign diplomat. She served in the U.S. delegation to the United Nations from 1969 to 1974. She was the U.S. Ambassador to Ghana from 74 to 78 and she served as the U.S. Ambassador to Czechoslovakia from 89 to 92.















In 1958 she made a small comeback on her own tv show called Shirley Temple's Storybook. It lasted for 3 years. It was even nominated for an Emmy the category of Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Children's Programming. She has received other awards as well. Early on her in career she received the Academy Juvenile Award for her work in Curly Top and Heidi. She also was honored at the Kennedy Center Honors and received the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. She printed her hands and feet at the Grauman's Chinese Theatre and she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1960 for all her work.



Former President George H.W. Bush (who appointed her to the Czechoslovakia post) responded to the passing of the American Icon:

"Barbara and I mourn the loss of an American icon." "She captured the affections of millions around the world by her endearing performances on the silver screen as a young girl, but I also admired Shirley for her selfless service to our country later in her life,"
"In both roles, she truly lifted people up and earned not only a place in our hearts but also our enduring respect.
"We send our condolences to Shirley's family and countless fans around the world."

Temple Black's family members released a statement saying:

"Salute her for a life of remarkable achievements as an actor, as a diplomat, and most importantly as our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and adored wife of fifty-five years of the late and much missed Charles Alden Black."

Rest in Peace Mrs. Shirley Temple Black. You've brought smiles to many young girls faces over the years. Thank you for your commitment, dedication, and sacrifice. You will be missed!

Kendrick Johnson was the young boy who was found dead at his school rolled up in a gym mat last year. The young man died last year and was ruled a freak accident by Detectives. They claimed they young man got stuck upside down in the mat reaching for a gym shoe. The family of Kendrick don't believe in the accident theory and they had his body exhumed for a second autopsy last year. They believe he was murdered and want to ensure that his murderer is captured.

After the young mans body was exhumed the private pathologist that the family had hired found that boys internal organs had all been removed and replaced with newspaper! The funeral home handling his body replaced his organs with newspaper unbeknownst to the family. When they found out they were outraged (as they should have been). No one knows what happened to Johnson's organs. According to the medical examiner Bill Watson the internal organs were too badly decomposed to preserve so they were deposed of immediately after the autopsy. The medical examiner concluded that Kendrick Johnson died from positional asphyxia. Positional Asphyxia is when the body is stuck in a position preventing breathing. The private pathologist findings were very different. He found that Johnson had died form a blow to the back of the neck determining his death non-accidental.

Attorneys for the family are accusing Harrington Funeral Home of fraud, negligence and intentional mishandling of a corpse. They filed suit on Jan. 31 in Lowndes County State Court. They are seeking compensation and punitive damages. The U.S. attorney for middle Georgia, Michael Moore has opened an investigation with the help of the FBI and currently their findings have not be made public. One can only assume they are still investigating.
