“Laurence Fishburne: daughter Aspired To Be”

The ReadyWriter

A Porn Star!

The actor’s 19-year-old daughter Montana, is starring in a hard-core porn film.

And according to TMZ  Montana said: “I’ve watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape.”

I think it’s a sad day in the history of anything decent, when a young African-American girl want to model her life after Kloe, Kim or Kootie Kardasian.

And I think it’s an even sadder day, when your parent or parents, couldn’t encourage and/or influence you to want to do better!!!

There are so many successful black woman (who have used their brains) to choose as a role model.

Success should be defined by the integrity of one’s accomplishments, not by the lowering of one’s principles and values.

Jahna Sebastian: “Swizz Beatz 3rd Baby Mama”

The ReadyWriter

Pictured here with their daughter, had a brief affair with Beatz back in 2007. Jahna said, “Swizz failed to inform her then, that he was a married man”.

Jahna cut off all ties with Swizz but six weeks later Jahna was pregnant.

An independent mother and producer herself, Ms. Jahna took to her twitter page to air out some dirt.

“I give thanks for being a producer myself so I don’t have to fuck for tracks as if I was just a singer”.

Jahna then followed up on her blog to rant about what goes on in the industry, then closed her post by saying this:

 “Hearing about some of today’s successful artists, who for their career sleep with producers jumping from one to another, break up marriages even when kids are involved and take everything for themselves with no sense of morality, building their image by speculating on sacred things, then get Grammys and worldwide promotion, I think to myself that somehow they get away with it too easy, but what is happening within their soul?”

Is it me or is she actually referring to Alicia Keys?

“I Love Vanessa Bell Calloway”

The ReadyWriter

Vanessa Bell Calloway is back on TV and giving Jada Pinkett Smith‘s character on the TNT drama series ‘HawthoRNe‘ a run for her money.

While she’s done numerous film and TV roles, many fans will remember the Cleveland native from her roles in films such as ‘Coming to America‘ as Eddie Murphy‘s bride-to-be, ‘What’s Love Got to Do with It‘ with Angela Bassett and ‘Biker Boyz‘ with Laurence Fishburne.

I was so into “HawthoRNe” last season but just can’t seem to get into the new season, and catching a glimpse of Vanessa’s attitude toward Jada, sends a reminder to me to try and catch this series.

Vanessa Bell Calloway is glad to be back on TV and said; “It’s a fun show”. “I like the writing”. “I like the cast”. “Working with Jada has been really fun”. “You’ve got an African-American female who’s the head of the cast”. “We don’t have that on TV”. “I’m trying to think is there any other show where there’s a black female lead?” “I don’t think so”.

Bell Calloway continued:  “Being an African-American woman when you get the opportunities you have to be grateful and you have to make the most of it and just believe that others will come around. I believe in what I do. I believe in myself. I know what I’m doing. I know that I’m good. I know that I’m good to work with”.

Do you watch ‘HawthoRNe’?

Hawthorne airs every Tuesday night on TNT…Check your local listings for air time.

“Foxy Brown’s Lawyers Dumps Her As A Client”

The ReadyWriter

Right before the raunchy rapper was due in court this morning, her lawyers dropped her as a client.

Bruce Barron Associates withdrew Foxy as a client and withdrew their services without giving a reason.

This coming, a week after Brown was arrested for allegedly escalating a profanity laced feud with her neighbor, Arlene Raymond outside of her Brooklyn home.

Apparently the rapper performed a sidewalk showdown, calling Raymond a “dirty bitch” all before bending over to expose her “buttocks” suggesting to Raymond to, “Kiss my ass!”

Raymond filed a criminal complaint, charging Brown in violation of the restraining order she has against her.

Raymond told the cops that, Foxy spewed all kinds of vulgarity against her yelling “You dirty bitch! Bitch!” “What are you looking at?” “What the f–k you looking at, bitch?” The nasty rapper then mooned her.

Brown was released from custody last week after posting $5,000 cash bail and $5,000 bond.

WOW!! And now she’ll need a lawyer.

“Suicide Rate Increased Since Recession”

The ReadyWriter

There has been many economic and emotional ramifications due to this recession. Stock prices may be dropping but the suicide rate is sadly on the rise.

The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline increased by 36 percent since 2008, and another 15% by 2009.

Data compiled by the Wall Street Journal show increases in several states. Across 19 states, the average increase was 2.3 percent.

If you believe someone is suffering from depression and in danger of committing or attempting suicide, you can take the following steps (recommended by the Mayo Clinic)

To start, talk to the person and ask them questions. You can get a gauge of how this person is feeling, and sometimes an ear to listen is the best first step to recovery.

  • Don’t leave the person alone.
  • Call 911 or your local emergency services provider right away. Or, if you think you can do so safely, take the person to the nearest hospital emergency room yourself.
  • Try to find out if he or she is under the influence of alcohol or drugs or may have taken an overdose.
  • Tell a family member or friend right away what’s going on.

    • If you’re passionate about this cause, you can volunteer with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and be trained to answer crisis calls.

    Anyone feeling suicidal should call their line immediately: 1-800-273-8255

    There are several organizations dedicated to suicide prevention including SAVE and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
