The "Original" Dreamgirls

The talented BrownSista has put together a photoalbum of the original Dreamgirls, "The Supremes'. Most of the younger readers don't know that the concept for the movie "Dreamgirls" was based off the hit girl group of the 60's.

At one time The Supremes were actually the biggest selling group in the world, even beating out the almighty Beatles.What made this especially impressive is that this all happened in a relatively short period of time, 1964-1969.During this period, the group recorded 12 American #1 singles and their 1966 album The Supremes A’ Go-Go became the first album by a female group to peak at #1 on the US album chart.Without a doubt they paved the way for every female singing group to come after them and for that we salute the Original Dreamgirls: Diana Ross, Mary Wison & Florence Ballard.

Isaiah Washington Goes To Re-hab?

Isaiah Washington entered a rehab facility today for "psychological assesment". As you may remember it was said ( and I only say this because Isaiah never had a chance to say his side of the story) that he had gotten into a verbal argument with one of his castmembers from "Greys Anatomy". The cast member accusesd Isaiah of calling him "Fag" which in turn made the actor feel like he had to come out. Although there was no proof to this Isaiah was blasted on many tv shows and magazines saying he was homophobic and anti-gay, a petition was even started to get him fired from "Greys Anatomy" . A few weeks ago at the the "Golden Globes" Isaiah made it known AGAIN that he "did not call his castmember a Fag".. once again bringing up old wounds.

So with all this being said, why does HE have to go to rehab? Did KKKramer go to rehab when he spouted out the "N" word numerous times? Can someone say "double-standards" and to think racism still doesn't exist today.

Brandy Involved In Fatal Car Crash

NYDailyNews reported that singer Brandy Norwood was involved in a four-car freeway crash last month that left a 38 year-old woman dead.

"The 27-year-old actress-singer was driving a 2007 Land Rover on the 405 Freeway on Dec. 30, whe she failed to slow down and struck the back of a 2005 Honda at about 65 mph, according to a California Highway Patrol report."

The driver of the Honda (Aboudihaj) then hit another vehicle and slid sideways before it struck a center driver. Aboudihaj's car was THEN hit by an oncoming driver. Aboudihaj was taken to a hospital where she died of blunt-force injuries.

Brandy was not injured, and she wasn't under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the crash, said her publicist Courtney Barnes.

Sad sad sad.

And Another One...

Terry McMillians ex-husband , Jonathan Plummer has signed a book deal with Simon and Schuster to release a tell-all book of the notoriously famous author and their marriage.

"A black woman scorned is the worst kind of scorn -- and I've felt it from Terry,'' Plummer said. "That's why I'm doing this (book) -- to help (black men who have come out of the closet) and to give my spin on things.'

'Plummer denies McMillan's claim that he married her for her money or to get citizenship, insisting he truly loved her when he left Jamaica at age 20 to live with her."I know she was hurt, but I was hurt, too ... and trying to be honest about my sexuality,'' he said.
