Oprah's "Until we meet again" finale

Well folks, it finally happened. After 25 seasons, Oprah gracefully called it a wrap on her show. I must admit, I was never a faithful watcher, however, this season had some pretty good episodes! Maybe it was because of all the hype about this being her last show that made me want to tune it because I wanted to see what tricks she had up her sleeve for surprised audience members, but it seemed that all her audience members this season were invited guest so forget trying to buy tickets lol!  Whatever the reason, I can honestly say that I rather enjoyed her last season.  Probably the best part was of the finale was the three day event. I’ve watched her three last episodes two times each (Us Chicagoians have the privilege to see her show in the am and pm…BOW!) and was so overcome by this ending! First Mayor Daley now Oprah?! Too much to handle in three weeks L Anyhoozer, I found it pretty cool that my former mentor was at the United Ccenter when Oprah was getting honored by the plethora of celebs who showed her love. (In my Italian Mob voice) Hey, how’s about a good word huh? LOL.
                After Oprah’s gentle, “Until we meet again,” spill, I just about lost it. What do we have left of local television? Exactly what does this mean? Is anybody eligible to take over? I can answer these questions in 4 parts. First, let’s narrow it down to the top 3 women in position right now (listed by who had a show out first); Ellen DeGeneres, Monique and Wendy Williams (I really wish I could include Tyra, but no. She wants to be all fancy and end her show with false hopes that she building buildings regarding ‘T-zone’ amongst the 1,000 other things she got under her belt #lottalyinlazy).
               1st; Ellen, can she be the next Oprah? Answer: (In my Australian voice) Eh, sorry. She’s not diverse enough. Yeah she hands out prizes once every year and yeah she interviews Top celebrities, but we don’t dance around the crowd and crack jokes 24/7 with middle aged men and women, you ‘re 53, let’s uh, let’s start actin like it huh?! 2nd candidate; Monique. Can she be the next Oprah? Answer: Maybe. While I do adore Monique’s passion for people and that is something that her and Oprah both share, she may be on the verge of being an over supportive host. She never seems to have a counterargument with a guest she’s invited to her show because she loves them so darn much. It’s almost 1-dimensional. 3rd runner up; Wendy Williams. Can she be the next Oprah? Answer: DEFINITELY NOT! Now, I don’t mean to be blunt by emphasizing the ‘Definitely not’ portion, but honestly, it’ll be an insult to even compare the two.  Sooooooo, actually, I’m not even going to go into detail about why she won’t, I’ll let you all decide on why she won’t be the next Oprah, k?!
               4th supporting reason to wrap up this ‘Who will take over Oprah’s slot’ question and answering is; WHAT THE HELL DO I KNOW?! LOL, maybe the world doesn’t need another Oprah. Maybe we’ve ran that time span. Maybe we now need to welcome more middle aged men and women loosening up and laughing a little more. Maybe we do need embrace more hugs instead of getting ridiculed for our past and present experiences/choices. Maybe we even need to invite the less serious route while styling the world up while throwing some gosspip in the mix, I don’t know! I do know that I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I wasn't worried about the future of television now. Who’s gonna set the new talk show standard?

Sister Sister is back!!!!!

Yes people, yes!!!!!! Tia and Tamera Mowrey will be returning to television...together! However, the rules have changed. Now, Tia and Tamera, both married women, will appear in a reality show together on the STYLE network in late August. Tamera recently wed FOX news' Adam Housley in Napa Valley this past Sunday. The couple is now vacationing in Athens. Tia Mowrey wed husband/actor Corey Hardict in 2008 in Santa Barbara, Calif and is now expecting their first child together. It's looking like a good year for the twins and with the set up of the new reality show, fans are also hoping for a successful series!

Lil Kim and Keyshia Cole Beef

Soooooo, it's true peeps...twitter is the OFFICIAL new age fist fight. Lil Kim is playing a Somaya Reece and calling out yet another music heavy hitter in the hopes that it will get her back in the spotlight...new victim? Keyshia Cole. According to Keyshia Cole's twitter, her and former rap icon Lil Kim are not friends. Despite recording on a couple of songs together, Keyshia implies that that was that. Obviously hurt by the responces, Kim then began to call out Keyshia's loyalty by tweeting, "“[You] got that right. We are not friends. The same way U take friendship seriously [I] take loyalty serious.” >< oooo! Honestly, any New Yorker who mentions anything about somebody not being 'loyal,' we got a serious problem on out hands Houston. Kim didn't stop there, she went so far as to practically call Keyshia a user, "The whole world has seen me extend my hand to u over and over again,” said Kim. She continued with, “Only someone who's trying to build a sincere relationship does shows 4 free & supports. [You] did not pay me a dime 4 none of that." lol. So understanding that she couldn't argue too much of Kim's antics, Keyshia responded with, "all I'm saying is don't have everyone thinking I was disloyal as a "friends" cause we were never that and u know it. No disrespect." lol yeahhhh, so take it how you want world, this is just another silly case of the twitter beef, until next time  #can'twealljustgetalong
