Oprah OUT Rosie O'Donnell IN

Rosie O'Donnell will be moving into Harpo Studios this fall after Oprah's final farewell to her legendary show. This is good news for Chicago as yet another celebrity ambassador will be taking over day-time television.

O'Donnell released a taped message to Harpo staff saying "Thank you, Oprah. And thank all you people there. Some of you are going to be sticking around to make a kick-ass show for the Oprah Winfrey Network."

There is also good news for Oprah's current Harpo staff who will go on to work on Rosie's show. O'Donnell told O Magazine that her new show will be less celebrity driven and will focus on one topic for an hour including everyday topics and issues such as relationships, health and weight.

Having her own show is nothing new to O'Donnell. Lets go back 15 years ago to the Rosie O'Donnell show where she graced six consecutive daytime Emmys for her show, which lasted from 1996 to 2002. O'Donnell also had a short lived stint on the view, which lasted only a year.

There's no doubt that O'Donnell has won Oprah over not only with the privilege to work on her world-wide famous stage, but she has won Oprah's trust and respect. Let's keep the cameras rolling as Rosie moves in this fall.

Face of Courage


Charla Nash’s story is so overwhelming to hear! This woman has endured so much within less than a year. In February Charla was brutally attacked by a chimpanzee that her neighbor boarded as a pet. After a plea of help from her neighbor to catch the escaped house mate, Charla arrived to the home. However, before Nash knew it Travis, the chimpanzee, viciously attacked her. The attack left her face completely mauled and with a new way of life. Watching this story on Oprah was compelling and inspirational. Although, many may rudely protest but there is a new face of courage and that is one of Charla Nash.

Movie Review: Precious (Based on the Novel 'PUSH' by Sapphire)


Oprah, Tyler Perry, Mo'Nique, Mariah Carey, Paula Patton
This movie has been stamped with the seal of approval from all the of powerful urban movers and shakers. Since the moment Oprah raved about it on her show earlier in the year, many movie goers waited with anticipation for Precious to hit theatres. The creators had many intrigued with the appeal of providing a movie that portrayed African-Americans in pivotal roles, since The Color Purple or Beloved. The movie Precious has stepped up and done a fantastic job at doing just that!

PRECIOUS is based on the novel ‘PUSH’ by Sapphire and is described by Lionsgate as "vibrant, honest and resoundingly hopeful film about the human capacity to grow and overcome."

Set in Harlem in 1987, it is the story of Claireece “Precious” Jones (Gabourey Sidibe), a sixteen-year-old African-American girl born into a life no one would want.

Viewing the movie after reading the intense novel, it was confirmed that reading the book first would be more of an emotional experience in order to truly grasp the plight of the main character. Although supporting actress, Mo'Nique, was phenomenal in carrying the plight of the main characters struggles, a sense of connection with some of the characters became quite hard. However, if it was the creator, Lee Daniels, and author, Sapphire, intent to make you feel compelled to appreciate your life, love, and faith then this movie deserves an award.
