Beyonce Flaws and All

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah...I like Bey, so what. I really like this song, and I think this video is adorable.

The Wait is Over

“Mashed Potatoes, Gravy, Cranberry Sauce” he said this signature phrase when he first came out and the crowed cheered loudly. Lol

Little Richard seemed very down to earth, which is so refreshing in this day of egomaniacs that seem to be allergic to their fans. He played “Old Time Rocking Roll” and he had some fans come onto the stage to dance. As the ladies walked off the stage he gave both handshakes and hugs. He also stopped what he was doing to have “Walter” bring over one of the ladies album cover for him to autograph. He acted up during the show of course…he let us know that he’s Indian, from the Mohican tribe…he’s the last one. Of course the audience groaned, and he then did his signature “Shut Up”. At one point he threatened to go “Bobby Knight” on a roadie from Indiana because his piano was not quite right. He ended up ditching the piano to play a keyboard. He did not do my favorite “You Keep a Knockin” and “Long Tall Sally”. But I did get to hear “Tutti Frutti”, “Good Golly Miss Molly” and “Lucille”. He also performed Ray Charles “I Got a Woman”.

I wish I would have had a pic of his drummer. The drummer was fairly young, well in relation to the rest of the band, and he would gt crunk. I'm telling you, he has more twirk in his hips than Beyonce. Wow! It was quite a site.

He was a proud papa when he introduced his son to the crowd...his son was the only band memeber wearing a sparkling suit. Lil Richard informed the crowd that he and Prince get their shoes made by the same designer in LA. Why am I not surprised. LOL.

I really enjoyed myself, and it was worth enduring the pain of “Black Joe Lewis” to witness a living legend do his thing!

And that hair is player. LOL!

Kid Capri is a Punk Azz Biatch!

I just got back from a party hosted by a couple of friends. Now, I have been excited about this party because it is a reunion for black University of TX alumni within my age range. It never fails, I always connect with old friends when Eddie and Norm host an event. So, I walked out the door looking oh so fresh and so clean, ready to shake a tail feather.

Well…

Kid Capri was the DJ that was hired for this event. Now, usually Cut Creator is the man, but I guess they wanted to go with a different vibe. All I can say, is when we got there he was playing an old school melody that was not at all live. Then he went into his dirty south medley, and kept getting on the mic saying…”Were in the south, I know you can make some noise”… Yeah, but only one problem kid…this is the ATX not the ATL, so why should we get crunk about Young Joc and Jeezy *sigh*. Well, he kept trying to play that stupid “I know you see it" song, and the music kept cutting off. As I walked by the booth, I waved by hand across my through signaling shut that ish off…he saw me, and got on the mic and asked me not to do that…well at this time, the music was still not playing. I then told him, that we did not want to hear Young Joc, and he tried to clown me but putting his spotlight on me. His actual words were “Oh, so you want the spotlight, I’m going to put the spotlight on you”. So I stuck a pose. He then goes on to say something about not testing him with the mic in his hand…I told him I don’t give a damn about him and his mic in his hand. He then asked me if I wanted the mic, and you know I said, “Hand it over”. Now, I also tried to tell him that I know both Eddie and Norm, and I am sure they would not appreciate him disrespecting me in this manner. See while he called himself clowning me his little cronies were laughing, and of course, the more they laughed the more he kept on. He told me to come around to the side of the DJ booth and he would give me the mic, and I better make it good. Once I walked to the side of the booth, his peeps tried to block me like I was trying to get at him. BOO-HISS! I told them that his punk ass invited me to walk around to the side of the booth. He then walks up to me, leans over and says, “I’m the one DJ’ing the party….blah, blah, blah”. See the problem with this is, although you’re the DJ the crowd dictates whether the party is rocking or not…and at this point, you were failing at your job Kid. As he talked he spat in my face…not purposely, but he’s a sprayer, YUCK! So, once he said what he had to say he walks off, but note…he never hands me the mic…because I was about to set it off in that piece (lol, actually I was only going to give a shout out to Eddie, Norm, and the rest of my UT family). The security guard actually comes over to escort me out, and I let him know that I was going to talk to Eddie. Once I threw out Eddie’s name, the guard changed the way he handled me. Yeah I name dropped…so what! I talked to Eddie and let him know that I have NEVER been so disrespected (well at least not by a grown man). He was actually trying to clown me in front of a packed house, to try to make himself look like what? A man? Wow…he’s all of 55 acting 15. So not impressed. Yeah I know I jumped fly first, but damn, if he was all that, he would not have cared what poor little ole me had to say in the first place. Even my boy from the BX said the music was not good. Kid Capri is a Buster! And I will NEVER attend an event with his name associated with it again. Bring Back Cut Creator!

On another note...

I did meet Maurice Green, so it was not all bad.

Caught with his pants down...

Now, I was forwarded this email by a friend of mine who happened to be on "the list". I don't know how I would have reacted if I was in the "Mrs" shoes...but I don't think I would have done this...

Ladies/Everyone:

First off I would like to apologize on behalf of Larry/Jr. for being misleading. He gave you all the impression that he was single and available. In actuality he is not, and has not been for a good while (May 2006 - present). I know that he has had phone conversations with some of you, e-mailed some/all of you, given his number to all of you, visited with some of you, attempted to visited with some of you, told some of you that he loves you, he will be there for you, etc., etc., I'm sure you all know. I have recently found out about these activities and am very pissed. I know that you all weren't aware of this predator like behavior and I can't be mad at you, but I can do something about it, which is what I'm doing now. I'm not sure what provokes a man to be such a dog (in his case attempt to be) but I'm the dog catcher today. I've spoken with Larry/Jr to find out why would be (basically)soliciting, looking for the hook-up through chat rooms, and Ladies/Everyone ,his answer was that it was just something to do. This is what he thinks of you all , just something to do. He has lied, schemed, conned & not sure if he cheated (he hasn't admitted that yet) you all of your time, cell phone minutes & gas for those of you that met up w/him. But not today, not never. I'm putting this nigga in check. He is truly sorry for being deceitful to you and more so to me. I know your wondering why I'm doing this, and the reason being is it would be to easy to let him off the hook by breaking up w/ him. He has to learn a lesson, that if you piss on the carpet your gonna get your nosed rubbed in it. And hopefully by the end of all this his bitch-ass will know to never under estimate a woman, correction, a good woman, a strong woman. So ladies if you all have a hunch about your dudes follow it, look where it got me, e-mailing you all,& embarrassing the shit out of him. If he does e-mail you after you get this, e-mail back. I check it daily now. And if he gets a new e-mail address, someone please be a dear and let me know by just forwarding it back to e-mail address. Once again I do apologize for this shit. I'm not going to be made a fool of, and I won't let any woman be either by some fake-ass playa, w/ those wanna be suave lines he was trying to kick. Nope not gonna happen.
Take care & be careful.

The Mrs.

P.S. - you can run faster w/ your skirt up than your pants down. That's why men get busted, like he just did.


Now I must say this is pure comedy. And note, the email is addressed to Ladies/Everyone...could the "Mr" also be on the down low. *smh*. This would have to be my favorite line...

He has lied, schemed, conned & not sure if he cheated (he hasn't admitted that yet) you all of your time, cell phone minutes & gas for those of you that met up w/him.

Ok...sure...he's not cheating on you. He's only making connecting with and meeting up with other women, but hey, that's not cheating...right?

In her plan to embarass him, she's the one that has seemed to played the fool. Stay with him, show him, he can have his cake and eat it too! And if I was on the list, I would tell her nada...What for...she's not leaving him.

I don't think it could EVER get this bad.

Wrap it Up!

As I type this, I am wrapped up. Wrapped up in what you might ask? Good question. I have decided to give myself a homemade body wrap that has been used on the beauty pageant circuit for instant results. I slathered Noxzema on my midsection and thighs, and wrapped each area on plastic wrap. Body wraps are designed to improve the texture and appearance of the skin by removing excess fluids and toxins from the body. Now I do not know if this works or not…let me be the guinea pig before you folks try it at home. Or if you’re feeling a little adventurous try at your own risk. I will tell you this, it feels like I am wearing Ben Gay, Icy Hot, or something along those lines. Also, I have been told that you can do a Spa Wrap using warm coffee grinds and seaweed. You rub the coffee grinds onto the body, then wrap the areas with seaweed. Another solution that the adventurous might want to try. I know going to the Spa is so much more exhilarating, but when you don’t have the time or other resources, a d.i.y. is always good to know. Anyone else have any d.i.y spa treatments…I would live to hear them.

****Update****
I don't know about removing toxins and excess fluids, but my skin sure does feel silky smooth aftwerwards...so it's something I will most definitly keep as part of the beauty regimen.

Outkast-Player's Ball

“Hallelujah hallelujah yah know I do some things more different than I used ta…”

Ok, now I had to go find my favorite OutKast song. Player's Ball. I was a fan of the Southernplayalistic Andre and Big Boi. This is when Andre could get it...before Erykah but them roots on him lol. They look so young in this video.

Hey Ya - Acoustic

I just have one more and then I am done posting covers...well until another hot mess comes along. I don't think this one is too bad. Yeah Patrice I already know, you prefer the original lol… I just found this very interesting and thought I would share.

hayseed Dixie Roses Video

Ummm, they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. First "Crazy In Love" and now this. I promise I don't go seeking these things out. I did not think this song could get any worse…boy was I wrong. This is a hot mess! I think I watched with my mouth open for the first 30 secs after the song actually started. WOW! That's all I can say, Wow *smh*.

Switchfoot - Crazy In Love [Beyonce cover]

I find this video interesting, and thought I would share. You can say what you want about Beyonce, but this right here proves she's that biatch! I also came across the "Beyonce Wine" apparently she has inspired a dancehall tune. I kind of like this cover. What do y'all think?
