Spike Lee Responds To Clint.....


Spike Lee has finally released a statement in response to the racist statements that actor Clint Eastwood made about Lee failing to include a single black soldier in his 2006 films Flags Of Our Fathers and Letters From Iwo Jima. The actor said that Spike should "Shut his face"! Spike responded with this:

"First of all, the man is not my father and we’re not on a plantation. The thing about it though, I didn’t personally attack him. And a comment like “a guy like that should shut his face” - come on Clint, come on. He sounds like an angry old man right there. Even though he’s trying to have a Dirty Harry flashback,’ he said. ‘I’m going to take the Obama high road and end it right here.”

Leave it to Spike to take the high road! Gotta love it! Cause there were so many other roads he could have opted to take! Hell I know I would have!

Something Positive for a Change.. Hill Harper has a New Book!


Actor Hill Harper has a new book out Titled "Letters to a Young Sister" which is a sequel to his first book "Letters to a Young Brother" which came out in 2007. The book is a positive outlook to young ladies futures and defying their own destiny, something much needed in the world today! This would be a great book for yourself, your daughter, or any young woman in your life! Check out the synopsis below and support:

Letters to a Young Sister brings Hill Harper's new vision for facing tough issues and becoming the architect of your own life to young women, such as:

• Creating an authentic image that is as unique as your fingerprint

• Confronting racism and sexism

• Boys, sex, and responsibility

• Playing to win

• Avoiding credit card addiction

• Turning dreams into reality

Following a format similar to the one in his previous book, and featuring an eight-page color photo insert, Letters to a Young Sister unfolds as a collection of letters in which Harper delivers straight talk, interspersed with questions answered in the form of e-mails written by well-known, accomplished women. With the voice of an older sibling, Harper offers stirring encouragement in each chapter and captures the spirit he conveys at each of his public-speaking events, whose audiences have ranged from church groups to middle-school students to graduating classes at Harvard, Columbia, and Howard University.

Usher Opens Up for Once... It's About Time!


Usher did a recent interview with a UK mag and he touched on some real issues in his life including his relationship with his dad peep this:

About his father passing:

Alcohol and substance abuse led to [my father's] death. He had many problems and never addressed it. Unfortunately it went on too long and took his life ... My father became a failure to substance abuse and I didn't empathize with him, I didn't have sympathy because I thought it was a cop-out."

About his first encounter with his father who left him as a toddler:

"My mother unsurprisingly wasn't very fond of my father - she kept her distance and suggested I did as well. She never wanted me to meet my dad. But as a man I had to make my own decision. What if he died and I never got the chance to meet him?
I was happy that I did, happy that I got closure, happy that I forgave him for not being there and that I knew he really did love me.

About his son not meeting his Grandfather:

My son didn't meet his grandfather because I felt this vicious cycle of life was far too repetitive. I felt like my son helped to break a curse that has plagued my family, of fathers not being there for their sons.

Finally Usher talks about something other than his mediocre album which produced more bootleg numbers than sold! Pretty interesting why can't he give interviews like this in the US of A I'm offended lol!
