Permanent Fiancées Carmelo Anthony and Former MTV VJ Lala have released statements declaring their solidarity. Yesterday a number of folks were reporting that Lala refused to pick Carmelo up from jail after his DUI arrest in Colorado and that the cops had to drop him off at home.
Well Lala says that’s just not true. She stands by her man:

*Disclaimer- Since I failed to do so the last time I will warn you that this is not targeted towards anyone particulary any men that I know or that are in my life. The men I know are wonderful and would never be gulity of such foolishness. 
According to the Urban League’s State of Black America Report, Black Women are facing both the best and worst times in our history. Condi’s historically high position in the current presidential administration, Michelle Obama being hailed as the new “Jackie Kennedy O.” and Oprah just being Oprah, just a few examples of modern black female achievement. Business owned by black women increased by 147% in the last ten years and sistas are working more than brothas nationwide. And yet we are suffering. Read the rest of this entry
I officially turn in my letter of resignation. You see, I had no idea that the job description would change so drastically. Maybe I never understood the job at all. In either case I’m done: take this job and shove it. On this day right now, I permanently declare that I am no longer attempting to be a “Ride or die” or a “Down A** “chick … Read the rest of this entry
This letter was featured on the Steve Harvey Morning show today. A friend of mine was so outraged that she asked me to post it to see what other people think about it. Is this the way men think about fidelity? Speak on it!!
DEAR STEVE,
WHATS UP MAN IM WRITING IN TODAY TO GET ANOTHER MALE PERSPECTIVE ON A SITUATION. I’VE BEEN MARRIED NOW FOR 11 YEARS AND I’VE CHEATED ON MY WIFE BEFORE WE GOT MARRIED, AND AFTER WE GOT MARRIED. WELL RECENTLY I’VE DECIDED TO STOP WITH ALL THE LIES AND CHEATING BECAUSE I’VE FATHERED 4 KIDS DURING MY MARRIAGE BY OTHER WOMEN, SO I DECIDED TO CONFESS MY SINS TO MY WIFE AND REPENT. WELL AFTER I DID SHE BROKE DOWN AND TOLD ME THAT SHE WANTED A DIVORCE, I DID THE USUAL BEGGING AND APOLOGIZING TO GET HER TO STAY, I EVEN PROMISED THAT WE CAN GO TO MARRIAGE COUNSELING TOGETHER. WELL I SLIPPED AGAIN BUT ONLY ONCE AND THAT WAS A WHILE AGO AND I HAVE BEEN FAITHFUL EVER SINCE, HOWEVER A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO MY WIFE OF 11 YEARS CAME TO ME AND TOLD ME THAT SHE’S PREGNANT, NOW THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT IF THE CHILD WAS MINE BUT I KNOW ITS NOT BECAUSE SHE REFUSED TO SLEEP WITH ME EVER SINCE I TOLD HER ABOUT THE CHEATING SO WHEN SHE CAME TO ME AND TOLD ME THAT SHE WAS PREGNANT BY ANOTHER MAN I CLICKED. I GOT SO ENRAGED THAT I THREW HER AND ALL OF HER CLOTHES OUT, I TOLD HER I WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF ANOTHER MANS CHILD AND SINCE SHE HAD THE NERVE TO NOT ONLY CHEAT ON ME BUT TO DO IT WITH NO PROTECTION THEN SHE NEEDS TO GO AND BE WITH HIM!!! NOW DON’T GET ME WRONG YES I DID DO THE EXACT SAME THING MORE THAN ONCE HOWEVER SHE DON’T EVEN KNOW ABOUT MY OUTSIDE KIDS THAT I FATHERED SO SHE CAN’T EVEN BRING THAT UP. BESIDES ITS DIFFERENT FOR A MAN TO CHEAT THAN A WOMAN, SHE WAS SUPPOSE TO BE MY WIFE AND BE MY WIFE AND BE FAITHFUL TO ME AND ME ONLY. I SUSPECTED HER OF CHEATING THOUGH BECAUSE WE WAS A COUPLE THAT HAD TO HAVE SEX AT LEAST 5 TIMES A WEEK AND AFTER I CONFESSED SHE DIDN’T WANT TO DO IT ANYMORE. ANYWAY STEVE MAN PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK I SHOULD DO BECAUSE AFTER I TOLD MY MOMMA WHAT HAPPENED SHE CURSED ME OUT AND TOLD ME THAT IM NO SON OF HERS, BUT I EXPECTED THAT REACTION FROM A WOMAN, SO STEVE MAN-TO-MAN WHAT DO YOU THINK? AM I WRONG? BESIDES BACK IN THE DAY MEN USE TO HAVE 10 AND 15 DIFFERENT WIFES AND I SAID I WAS SORRY!
Well what do you think? is there a double standard when it comes to fidelity? is it justified??

Happy Valentines Day folks!!! For many people, today is a special day, filled with Candlelit dinners, roses sent to the job and romantic nights. For me it means eating too much candy at your office V-day party and wishing that your Valentine wasn’t so far away ;-). But for a number of people, women in particular, Valentine’s Days are something to be hated. Hated because it’s another day in which single people are told that being single is a bad thing: told that if you’re alone then something is wrong with you. A Married co-worker of mine told me that V-day is SAD: Singles Awareness Day and it seems like there’s no other day in which people are more aware of their singleness.
So this week as I’ve been searching for articles and interesting tidbits for the Upcoming official launch of the Brown Sugar Pages (Feb 2 
I’ve notice ton of Valentines Day Articles. One thing that caught my eye was this article about finding your “Soul mate.” the article was right next to another piece about surviving “Valentines Day Alone.” Soul mates are a beautiful concept, the idea that you can connect with someone so deeply that your souls are matched. It’s an idea that many people, particularly women believe in whole-heartedly. I do too, just not in the traditional sense.
There was an episode of “Sex and the City” in which the women were sitting at a table of a swanky restaurant; bemoaning their apparent lack of relationships and pondering the idea that they may never find theirs. Then “Charlotte” says, “Maybe we could be each other’s soul mates. And men could be these great nice guys to have fun with.” That’s a new concept. Many of us search for a soul mate in romantic relationships, but by doing that we are liming ourselves and the people in our lives. Find your Soul Mate in Jesus and your relationship with God. Your soul mate could be the friends the laugh at jokes that no one get but you. Your soul mate could be the beautiful baby that came from your romantic relationship. All of those are platonic relationships but they can be greatly fulfilling. Fill up the space on the “soul mate train” with the people that love you and connect with you on a non-romantic plane, the people that choose to love you even though you’re broke and not sleeping with them. Spend your single Valentines Day’s showing love to all of them.
So yes today is SAD and singles should be aware. Be Aware of the blessings in your life, the strength that you have, the loving people in your life. Be aware of how fabulous you are and that there’s no point in settling for some dead rosés and dinner at the Red Lobster. Be aware of the fact that good things come to those who wait. It’s ok to wait for love and let you romantic relationships blossom into “great love.” And if you haven’t found your “great love” yet that’s ok, you’ll already have your soul mate.
