On the Friday, November 13th Wendy will open her studio doors to recording artist Chris Brown. Brown joins Wendy for a chat and to exclusively premiere his new video “Crawl” from his forthcoming album “Graffiti.” Wendy said she wouldn’t be doing any “swoop downs” on him but, just chatting.
Normally I don’t post this stuff but, sometimes P. Diddy or his government name Sean Combs has some valid points. Enjoy what Diddy or “Ciroc Obama” had to say about McLame’s err… McCain’s, VP pick Sarah Palin *crickets* I am so not impressed with her resumé (really McCain, was this the only Republican that would still deal with you). Did he walk into a local Kmart in Alaska while on the campaign trail and think that the lady checking him out asking paper or plastic would be a good choice for his second in command.
I have neglected this site for far to long and I am tired of it. It started back in Nov. when I got a promotion and I had mad work to do to promote the Afro-American Newspapers coverage of Obama and Clintons’ race for the DNC nomination and we had the only journalist representing African-American Newspapers on the campaign bus with Obama during the primaries (Hillary’s camp didn’t reach out) so that took long hours, press releases, marketing, etc. for them and honestly I just could lift another finger to type when I came home. Next came the job opportunity to work with Black America’s most influential voice in radio to work on the redesign and re-launch of his website but, they had a problem with me having my own site. So because I wanted the job I took down my post and got the gig. The problem was that I missed blogging and chatting with readers about things that interest us. I realized what was important to me and have decided to re-energize my site. I will be posting the stories that have been taken down along with new ones and really would like feedback on what you want from a good website that speaks to our unique voices. Post your comments or send me a holla at liz[at]savvysocialite.com.

P.S. Thanks mom for putting it in perspective and giving me a friendly reminder of why I started this site. Thanks Dee Dee for reminding me to keep it up that random morning (3am) we chatted (I love Google chat) what you have done with Clutch continues to inspire me.
First, Jill and now Janet is getting into the lingerie game. Might as well, she’s already seen what happens when you don’t wear proper undergarments (i.e. Nipplegate). Janet Jackson’s Pleasure Principle Lingerie will offer fourteen designs, and range in bust sizes from 32A to 44G (thank goodness, I hope they fit well too) with affordable prices nothing over $40. I am still looking for a link to the website but, there seems to be none (come on people you can’t launch anything with out the web!!!) I will update the post as soon as I find the link.
Wow I guess you don’t really know when you get called home. I need to start getting it together, after this drink.He apparently died while on the treadmill. I hope people don’t use this excuse as to why they can’t excersise. I can hear my father now.
I was a little caught of gaurd this morning when I got the text that Bernie Mac had died. I was in the middle of breakfast and had to inform everyone at the table of this news. I brought up the fact that he died from the same disease that my aunt suffers from Sarcodosis, and the fact that African-Americans get more than any other race. We also shared our fave Bernie Mac moment. I love his character in the Player’s Club, Ocean’s 11, and Life.
Really EBONY?? I see you stepping up your cover game, kudos to your creative director and editors and snaps for LJR for bringing the swag back to EBONY. Anyway it looks as if my favorite first lady (positive thoughts only) is on the cover of the September issue of EBONY (I love me some Michelle she’s so graceful). This is sure to be a collectors issue for African American households right next to that dusty cover of Dr. King at your grandma’s house. Go get it!
So the Emmy winning former super-model who I think is a great role model for women of color is finally embolized in wax. Madame Toussard’s did a fabulous job on this statue, even the lacefront looks like Tyra’s own. She’s soooo fabulous.
Ladies have you ever had a day when you feel like not looking fab, I strongly suggest fighting that erge because you never know who you will meet and you always want to be prepared. For example the other today I was in my office minding my biz when an associate came to my door and told me that there was a hottie in the office. So I am walking around the corner to see if my work homie heard but, she was no where to be found as I left her office there he stood. My heart stop and mouth dropped open and I couldn’t believe how fine he was in person (the movies do him no justice). I started to say something but, caught myself (I don’t do groupie moves) and walked back to my desk before he noticed me gawking. Just as I was just digging into my yogurt, and granola during a conference call. I hear a male voice asking to be introduced to me, yep it was him (he peeped me in my office) and all I could think of was thank God I look fab today, then I looked down; I was still wearing my silver Pumas with my dress. Yep, I looked like a bama but, at least my hair and make-up looked great.
