As I briefly mentioned before, I covered the red carpet at The 20th Anniversary ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards with a film crew! I had an opportunity to meet and interview Mary J. Blige who was honored with the “Voice of Music Award,” the super duper sexy Tank, Kandi Burruss, the beautiful Letoya Luckett, Gabriel “Wonder” Arillo, Erica Campbell of Mary Mary, Young Berg, my new best friend Drew Sidora and the splendiferous Keri Hilson. I can’t say enough about how much I love Letoya Luckett! This talented singer/songwriter won an ASCAP award for “Torn”. She radiates positivity and is so stunningly beautiful in person! I have met all the members of Destiny’s Child and promise you that Letoya possesses the most natural beauty by far!

“Hold me baby, drive me crazy, touch me, all night long”—this song is so 1991. Cathy Dennis was an English 90s sensation who released “Touch Me” as a single from her first album, Move To This. You know you know every word!

1. Roberto Cavalli Double Breasted Military Jacket. Quick to grab for fun summer nights & stylish enough to pull off dinner or a night on the town.

2. Etro Three Button Suit. Classic. Chic. Simplistic. Casual.

3. If you want to add trendiness to the wardrobe with a touch of funk, the latest D & G Leather Hi-tops are the way to go. Unique, different, alternative, diverse but not overwhelming or too far out there. Get a pair!

4. Paul Smith and his new cotton motorcyle (”biker”) jacket are realling serving it up. I love the feel of the tri-fitted zipper. And the shoulder placements are haute as well. Like or love?

Live Free or Die Hard is here to make it’s summer stand. Bruce Willis returns as John McClane to save the country one more time! Justin Long (famous for his MAC/PC commercials) will be making his biggest screen debut to date & is rumored to be the next “it” boy on the rise.

[Mac Vs. PC]

Michael Moore is at it again. He is now doing a thorough exploration and interrogation of the American healthcare system. Educate yourself and get another take on the American medical conglomerate that is closely related to big business and politics. Can’t wait!

There is no rehab for homophobia – that was just some crap being put out by the network. I went into an executive counseling program which many people in this industry know about and go to. They knew what the program was but chose to call it what they wanted to fit their agenda. And more importantly, I volunteered for it because I wanted to understand my fight with Patrick and how it got out of hand like that. I thought [ABC, who he claims didn't pay for the treatment] sending me meant they actually wanted me to succeed and come out on the other end.

The actor also says that his race was his downfall. During his fight with Dempsey, he says:

Someone heard the booming voice of a black man and got really scared and that was the beginning of the end for me. I apologized and showed my remorse for what I said and for the pain I caused anyone. If a black man can’t get forgiveness in this country, when so many other people like Robert Downey Jr. and the governor of California get second and third chances … I think that says a lot about race and this country where we stand. It didn’t help me on the set that I was a black man who wasn’t a mush-mouth Negro walking around with his head in his hands all the time. … I had a person in human resources tell me after this thing played out that ’some people’ were afraid of me around the studio. I asked her why, because I’m a 6′1″ black man with dark skin and who doesn’t go around saying ‘Yessah, massa sir’ and ‘No sir, massa’ to everyone?’

Whoa, whoa, whoa! First off, Robery Downey Jr. went to rehab for drugs–not for being an asshole. And secondly, nobody called you out because you were African-American and just because you are doesn’t mean that you can’t be prejudiced against other people. Comparing this situation to slavery is the lowest road you can take, Isiah. Shame, shame.

Pasha’s partner Jessie had a bit of a medical emergency, so he danced with Melanie Lapatin, the assistant to choreographer Tony Meredith. It definitely seemed awkward watching him dance with her, but he killed the cha cha!

Dominic and Sabra doing the rumba. It was gorgeous!

Who would ever expect Hok to move like this! He and Jamie were fantastically mezmerizing?

Jesus and Sara gave us a little taste of krumping last night. That song choice was a straight up flashback!

The Spice Girls arrived yesterday for a photo-call at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, Great Britain. New album here we come! Are you love muffins ready? I know you guys might not agree with me but I’m kinda excited to see if they can pull it off.

Remember this? “Say You’ll Be There” was so my jam back in the day!
