Head of Oprah's OWN Network gets FIRED!!!!

Seems like Donald isn't the only one firing people these days. Lady O just released Christina Norman of her duties as the Head of OWN. Norman, former president of MTV, joined OWN in January of 2009.

Oprah released an email to the OWN staff today that said:

"Ms. Nroman's hard work, passion and leadership were instrumental in getting OWN on the air,"..."Given all that we have to do, the OWN Board felt it was necessary that we have a different kind of leadership in place for the next phase of OWN's growth."

Its been said for months that the networks ratings have been slipping. Apparently Ms. Norman is the second person to have held the role. I guess bringing Sherri Salata over was out of the question. Hope Lady O gets the right person for the job. Hey I'm available :-)

Mariah Carey releases names of her twins

Mariah Carey no longer has to refer to her twins as "dem babies", she and husbby Nick Cannon released names for the twins today. Monroe Cannon for their little girl after Marilyn Monroe and Moroccan Scott Cannon for their little boy. Scott is Nick Cannon's middle name and also his grandmother's maiden name.

Nice names for "dem babies". Now can we get a photo please!!! I guess we'll have to wait until they get their million dollar check to grace the cover of People.

MET Gala Snippets

I'm pulled a Rickey Lake, I took a looooong break but now I'm coming back. Its a lot going on in celeb world so naturally I have a lot to say. So sue me *shrug*.

Let's get down to business. All the who's who of celebrityville came out last night for Anna Wintour's Gala at the MET honoring Alexander McQueen. Now I know this is supposed to be a "costume" party-but some people went above and beyond.

Exhibit A: Andre Leon Talley....I can't--not now, not ever with this outfit. Grown ass man in somebody's overgrown choir robe!!! Anna get ya boy please!


W-T-F!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!As I look at this all I picture "Oh when the saints go marching in"...He thought he was marching up to the pearly gates...SMH...

Serena Williams...*sigh* You really tried it with this Touch by an Angel look. Who's fairy godmother were you trying be?!?! Lookin like Glenda the black witch from Wizard of Oz. You're doing too much. The Royal wedding was last week-enough with the hat.

Eva honey my grandmother wants her drapes back!

Fergie you're giving me Bride of Star Trek. And by the look on your face, even you can't believe you walked out like this. This would've actually been a good look minus the life-size shoulder pads.

This was not Chanel Iman's best look. Boring and a tad bit on the older side for someone so young. She definitely needed something more youthful looking. Off to sip high-tea w/ the queen perhaps?

Zoe, girl I love you but this just wasn't it. *yawns* at this outfit. From the side this looked like a frock. Wonder if she's prego? Doubt it but just sayin

Rosario Dawson- the only thing I really liked about this dress was the back. And the hair ....the messy ponytail look isn't working AT ALL!

I see nobody decided to pull Cassie to the side and go over the dresscode for a Gala. Cassie girl I know you're still young but anytime you see the word Gala on an invite leave your club attire at home. You're way underdressed for this event.

Kerry looked radiant. Lovin the fresh spring look.

Baaaag Laddyyyy (in my Erykah Badu voice)...Remember Cicely Tyson's character in "Eve's Bayou"??? Well Naomi damn sure nailed it last night! Naomi you scare me in this outfit.

This dress was EVERYTHING on Rih-Rih. The hair would've looked better swept up or long curls vs the long braid. She should've switched hairstylist with Ciara because hers wasn't working for me either.

Ciara was by far had one of my fav looks of the night minus the hair and the cuff. Neither worked with this gown. Makeup is flawless!

Solange was my choice for BEST dressed of the night. I loved everything about this look. The hair, the makeup, the dress!!! She slays hands down!

Happy couples A. Keys & Swiss Beatz and Melo & Lala. Still looking like they're in that honeymoon phase....loves them!

And for this very reason is why I chose Solange over Lady Bey for Best Dressed. I can only imagine how tight this Lil Mermaid gown must've been. Dress was stunning but she lost brownie points by not being able to walk in it. It was like watching Oprah in her Christian Louboutins. Just sit, don't move and look purty.

STUNNING

Okay Let's Talk...

WHEW! It's been a minute since I updated. OK, so I came across this picture of Rihanna and you know it's fine that her fashion sense is definitely out of the box, but let's talk about this hat.

Is someone's grandmom missing the hat below?!! Ugh..some things from the 80's need to STAY IN THE 80'S! What's your opinion??

THE BOONDOCKS OFFICIAL RETURN DATE!!!

It's official, the Boondocks creator Aaron McGruder posted on twitter today that the Boondocks Season 3 premiere will be May 2nd!!!I never liked cartoons growing up but after the Boondocks I have a much greater appreciation for animation.

NICK WHO???

LOL I LUV Rihanna's facial expression at the end! This was right during the Pepsi Superbowl time.

Victoria Rowell from Young & The Restless to join Real Housewives of Atlanta????

Rumors are flying about the possibility of Victoria Rowell (Dru from Young and the Restless) may be joining the Atlanta Housewives cast. This could be like watching a train wreck right before your eyes. Or it may do what it did for Kandi and resurrect her career. I mean seriously~who remembered that Kandi was a member of Escape before Housewives??? I sure didn't. If your a fan of Y&R like myself you'd rather see her back on the show where she belongs and not on a reality show that shows her true colors. It will be good to see Victoria back on tv but I'm not sure how I feel about this. Again this is just a rumor so who knows. There has been heavy talk on Y&R lately about the character Dru so maybe she's headed back over there. I hope they're not planning to recast Dru's character the way they did Malcom as Eddie Winslow...Eddie Winslow though??? Seriously???? I don't even know that man's real name. *sigh*
