FANS are flocking on Christmas Day to see QUENTIN TARANTINO's DJANGO Unchained starring JAMIE FOXX, CHRISTOPH WALTZ, LEONARDO DiCAPRIO, KERRY WASHINGTON, and SAMUEL JACKSON produced by REGINALD HUDLIN covered by ESPN's Kingi Knox

DJANGO Unchained is a western film that is directed by QUENTIN TARANTINO and produced by REGINALD HUDLIN. The film stars JAMIE FOXX, CHRISTOPH WALTZ, LEONARDO DiCAPRIO, KERRY WASHINGTON, and SAMUEL JACKSON.

The film is set in the deep south, where the film follows Django (FOXX), a freed slave who treks across America with Dr. King Schultz (WALTZ) a bounty hunter.

I had a chance to meet and talk with Samuel Jackson at the New Orleans HORNET's game.  We discussed his upcoming movie and he expressed that he was impressed with my media history of working on Speedy's Comedy Comedy corner for Jamie Foxx FOXXHOLE.  Samuel was in New Orleans working on the movie titled "Meeting Evil", also starring Luke Wilson.  Samuel was very down to earth as he passed through the floor and some Hornets fans got a chance to speak to him in person as they were excited by his responsive greeting.  I told Samuel that he is VERY HANDSOME in person as he rocked a casual look at the game.

Reginald Hudlin is my FACEBOOK Friend. And that is something to brag about? lol.  No, it is not something to brag about.  I was surprised by our Facebook friendship.  I sent him a birthday greeting (not expecting a response).  Reginald responded "thanks Kingi!".  Wow, I was taken back.  I took the opportunity to let him know that Boomerang and House Party starring Kid N' Play, Full Force, Tisha Campbell, Robin Harris, and Martin are part of my favorite movies collection.  Reginald is a very attractive man that surprised me with his kindness and humility.

Jamie has been making his rounds promoting Django Unchained.  I was able to watch Jamie Foxx on the show Ellen DeGeneres talk show as he shared with his FANS that he rode his own horse in Django Unchained.  Jamie interview was very funny as he shared his growth...from not being a confident horse rider to the experienced horse rider you will see in Django Unchained.  Jamie interview was very animated as he made horse noises telling a very funny story about overcoming his fears riding his horse in Django Unchained.

US Fans came together to...
 VOTE and re-elect President BARACK OBAMA!!!  

The morning after the election was beautiful with a nice sunrise in California.  What was more beautiful was to be greeted by the SPIRIT of CALIFORNIA representing different faces and different cultures.  Luis Martinez, who is a Latino, asked, "Did Obama win?  I feel asleep last night".  Will Jones who is a Caucasian man immediately answered. "YES...yes...Yes!".  Immediately, there were screams on the streets.  Throughout the streets of Los Angeles, I watched the smiles and hearing the voice of happiness to be a huge part of a historical moment to re-elect President Barack Obama.

Team OBAMA congratulations on your hard work and ALL voters congratulations on making your voice count.  Now, lets all MOVE FORWARD for a BETTER AMERICA!

JENIFER LEWIS is getting GREAT FAN buzz with her 1 woman shows on Broadway! Read below from Jenifer to her fans covered by Kingi Knox

JENIFER LEWIS who is beautiful, talented, personable, fashionable, down-to-earth...I met Jenifer Lewis at the premiere of BET's The GAME. I gave no introductions (because it wasn't important). I said, "Jenifer what's up? When are we going to see you have your own show? I have been waiting for you to have your own show!  She replied, "Girl, I am working on it.  I gave her my card and walked away."

Everything I have seen Jenifer in has had me in pain from gut buster laughter. I am laughing now reminiscing on her scenes in Tyler Perry's Madea's Family Reunion, Juwanna Man, Poetic Justice, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, What's Love Got to Do With It, A Different World, The Brothers, just to name a few. She is always leaving me wanting more.  I guess when I saw her I took my personal frustration out on her.  

Well, I am happy to share to Jenifer (one N) Lewis fans that I received the most beautiful surprise in me email inbox.  

Jenifer Lewis emailed me information on her latest project.  I am so excited to share with Jenifer Lewis fans her recent success on Broadway and her sincere appreciation to her fans.  She is doing her thang with her 1 woman shows on Broadway!  Geaux Jenifer Lewis!

From JENIFER LEWIS to her GREATEST Fans!!!

From Don't Tell Mama in 1982 to Club 54Below in 2012, I want to thank all of you for your support over the years leading up to the success with the shows recently in NYC and LA.

This show was the culmination of years of blood, sweat, tears and black not crackin'.  I came away from the weekend with just one word on my lips - TRIUMPHANT! Of course, with great humility.  

Here's the review from the New York Times, http://tinyurl.com/d2gxcsa, which put the icing on the cake.
