First Lady MICHELLE OBAMA

Vice President JOE BIDEN
gave a GREAT speech at the DNC that Americans need a FAIR shot for a better life.  I love his compassion fo SAVING the automobile industry, which will SAVE jobs and SAVE our economy.  Jill Biden gave a GREAT speech and she looked GREAT also.  Vice President Biden support for President Barack rocks as he expressed to the world about our President's courage to protect us!

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 Timeshttp://tinyurl.com/d2gxcsa, which put the icing on the cake.
