David Banner Says That Black Women Shouldn't Perm Their Hair!
Rap artist David Banner says black women that perm their hair have no pride.But,David Banner doesn't have one black woman with natural hair in this video.All of these women have perms.Black women go through all of that trouble because most black men don't go for women with natural,kinky hair.Let's use David Banner as an example.He's talking to all of the women "looking good in the club".They all just happen to be black women with perms & weaves!Where are the women with natural hair?Even Mediatakeout wants to know.Here's more:
"Here’s his quote, as reported by the Times And Democrat
In a question-and-answer session, Banner challenged black women in attendance to explain why they perm and straighten their hair. In response came the defense that “hair perming” is equated with being able to get a decent job as a professional and not being viewed as a threat by bosses who are usually of a different race.
“This is what I mean when I say black people don’t love themselves,” Banner said. “Perming your hair is a clear example of ‘black-on-black crime’ and media control. Black-on-black crime is not just a black person committing a violent act against another black person.
This is an age old argument, usually made by men – who have NEVER dated a woman with natural hair. We know there’s SOME merit to what he’s saying, but we ain’t trying to hear this argument from this dude.
David … until we see natural haired chicks EXCLUSIVELY in your videos … you really need to close your trap. …"(END OF EXCERPT)Read the entire post here.
Practice what you preach,man!
The Woman With The Bulletproof Weave Sure Got More Than Her Money's Worth!
I almost forgot about this unusual story.Ladies,whenever your man tells you he doesn't want you to wear a fake ass weave tell him Briana Bond's story.She's the woman underneath that mountain of hair that stopped a bullet.Briana says that she's been wearing weaves for years.Ms. Bonds is just glad that it saved her life.Not to mention that her investment more than paid off.She might have been injured or killed if it weren't for her weave! Knowing that a hair weave could save more than your looks may convince your man to shut the hell up about fake hair.Some dudes really nag there women about not wearing their natural hair.At least,that's been my experience.
Big Brother's Jade Goody Is Now Known For Her Love Instead Of Her Hate!
I don't watch "Big Brother",but even I became aware of the questionable remarks that Jade Goody made on that reality show.She showed her true colors & they weren't pretty!She insulted fellow contestant Shilpa Shetty & was accused of being a racist.Now,Jade Goody has redeemed herself to many in the public eye.She is making news for a whole different reason now.I was so sorry to hear that she is dying from cancer.But,I was glad to hear that she got a chance to fulfill her last wish.Here's more on that from the Telegraph:
"As with every other stage in Goody's life since she found fame on Big Brother seven years ago, the ceremony took place amid a media circus.
A television crew was on hand to capture the moment Goody, 27, exchanged vows with fiancĂ© Jack Tweed, while a celebrity magazine paid £750,000 for the exclusive picture rights.
Goody organised the wedding in just seven days after learning she has weeks to live. She was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August and chemotherapy treatment failed to halt the spread of the disease.
"It was a very heart-rending, happy ceremony. There were lots of tears and lots of smiles. She looked absolutely beautiful," said her publicist, Max Clifford, adding that the wedding had lifted her spirits: "She's absolutely thrilled. She's like a little one who has just woken up on Christmas Day."
Guests at the venue, Down Hall in Hertfordshire, dined on lobster tagliatelle and were serenaded by pop group Sugababes.
The bride wore a £3,500 gown donated by Harrods boss Mohamed Fayed. The 21-year-old groom wore an electronic tag, a condition of his early release from prison where he served a sentence for assault. The couple were able to spend their wedding night together after Jack Straw, the Justice Secretary, relaxed Tweed's curfew.
Despite her failing health, Goody was determined to walk down the aisle and a pocket was sewn into the lining of her dress to conceal an intravenous morphine supply. Nurses from the Royal Marsden Hospital were in attendance.
She was given away by her grandfather, John Craddock, who said it was both the happiest and saddest day of his life.
Goody has struck media deals in order to provide for her sons Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, after her death. Proceeds from the wedding will go into a trust fund and she wishes them to be privately educated, giving them the opportunities she was denied. Goody endured a miserable childhood on a council estate in Bermondsey, south London, brought up by a heroin-addicted lesbian mother.
The decision to turn her illness into a public spectacle has left some feeling uneasy. However, she received words of support yesterday from Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, Archbishop of Westminster, who urged people to pray for her."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
And I will pray for Jade Goody & the rest of her family.
