UPDATE: Interview & HQ performance added!

Love muffins and lambs rejoice! Today, as a part of Oprah’s live Friday concert series, Mariah Carey took to the stage to perform her new single “I Want To Know What Love Is” (which is now available on iTunes, along with pre-order for her album) and she nailed it! I can’t begin to tell you how ecstatic I am to see Mimi on stage singing for her life! She looked absolutely radiant & healthy in a skin tight catsuit with her throwback honey brown curls! Baby, when I tell you Mimi went for those notes, honey she went in! Watch for Oprah’s reaction around the 4:14 mark. Once again Mariah Carey proved that she is one of the greatest voices and artists of our time.

Part 2 of Oprah’s tell-all interview with Whitney Houston may have been better, and even more insightful than the first part. I admire Whitney’s strength and I’m so glad to see that she’s been delivered from whatever has been holding her back both spiritually and physically.

Check the rest of the interview and her performance of “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” after the jump! CONTINUE READING

Congratulations are in order for Ms. Whitney Houston! Whitney currently has the number one album in the country after selling 301k copies in the first week! This makes for the largest opening sales week of any female artist this year. That’s an amazing accomplishment and I’m glad to see Whitney back and doing her thing.

Don’t forget to catch what Oprah calls “the best interview I’ve ever done,” and an emotional performance of “I Didn’t Know My Own Strength” on the season premiere of Oprah. The two-part episode airs Monday, September 14th, followed by part two on September 15th at 4pm EST.

Oprah Winfrey delivered this sad but true message to Rihanna during her show on Friday: “If a man hits you once, he WILL hit you again.”

Love muffins, let’s pray that Rihanna listens. View my thoughts on this whole situation.

Love muffins for the last nine years Oprah has been the sole cover girl on O magazine. But not for the upcoming April issue — Oprah is sharing the cover for the first time with First Lady Michelle Obama.

In the issue, which hits newsstands March 17, Michelle reveals some details on her new life in the White House. Here are some highlights:

On her first weekend in the White House: Well, we still had family here, so it was almost like a wedding. A huge, very complicated wedding. The last visitors didn’t leave until Sunday. And then the first Monday was kind of weird. You know: Now we live here, and Barack is getting up and going to work, and it’s just us. This is our home now.

On who the White House really belongs to: When you go out and come back, especially at night, with all the white lights on — it’s just beautiful. We feel privileged, and we feel a responsibility to make it feel like the people’s house. We have the good fortune of being able to sleep here, but this house belongs to America.
