The Obama’s first dance at the Inaugural Ball Black people could not have been more proud than the day we all witnessed America swore in it’s first African American President. What makes this moment so cute is watching Barack and Michelle connect while dancing to Beyonce’s rendition of Etta Jame’s song, “At Last.” First of all, how good looking is my wife?” Obama asked the crowd when first introduced by Denzel Washington. 2.Barack tearing up while talking about Michelle during his farewell speech The inaugural ball was just one of many times Barack publically praised Michelle. During the end of his term, the 44th president of the United States made sure Americans understood that behind every great man is a strong woman.   3. Their iconic fist bump Did we mention they even have their own unspoken language? Before each major event, the couple shares a “you got this moment” signified through a simple fist bump.

Joe Giudice: Yup, He’s Off to Italy!

Joe Giudice is on his way to Italy. But the reality star is still holding out hope that it’s just a vacation. Scroll down to see what we mean… Judges have granted Giudice‘s request to be released from ICE custody and move to Italy, which is the country where he was born and where he may be forced to relocate on a permanent basis. But Giudice will continue to appeal his deportation order for as long as possible. “He will be OK,” said Jerard Gonzalez, one of Joe’s immigration attorneys. “I just don’t like having families taken apart like this.” Giudice had previously been denied his original request to be released to the New Jersey home he shares with wife Teresa Giudice and their four daughters:  Gia, 18, Gabriella, 15, Milania, 14, and Audriana, 10. As most Real Housewives of New Jersey fans are likely aware, Joe was sentenced to 41 months in jail for his role in a bankruptcy scheme. Joe and his estranged wife admitted in 2016 to lying to the government about their income and their assets, defrauding the government in the process. A federal judge decreed awhile back that Joe, who never became a United States citizen, must be deported back to Italy because he’s an immigrant who committed a serious crime. After being released from prison, Giudice was taken into custody by immigration officials and was only just now set free — but only if he lives in Italy while his appeals case is heard. The next court date regarding Joe’s appeal is in November. Teresa, for her part, has not yet commented on Joe having to move to Italy while his legal argument goes through the system. She has said on numerous occasions that she will leave her husband regardless of the outcome ; she seems so very over this relationship. Last week, when asked how the family has come together and supported each other, she told E! News: “We just do. I mean, we’ve come a long way and I’m happy I have four beautiful daughters. “They’re strong and I’m happy to have them. I’m their rock, they’re my rock and I’m glad we have each other.” Teresa also wrote a letter to the judge several months ago, pleading to have Joe remain in America. “I cannot bear the thought of my daughters losing their father, I am fearful that it will break them and that I alone will not be able to fix them,” the 47-year-old wrote. She added at the time: “Judge Ellington, this is my greatest fear and it keeps me up at night. The fear that if I lose my husband, I will also lose my children, as they will never ever be the same.” Sounds heartfelt. But, as you can see below, it also looks like Bravo is pretty darn excited to milk this scandal for all it’s worth: View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Everything We Know About Season 10

Tyler Cameron & Gigi Hadid: It’s Over!

Can we get some follow-up episodes to Hannah Brown’s season of The Bachelorette? Because the drama with this cast is never-ending, and frankly, it’s a hell of a lot more interesting than anything else that’s coming down the TV pike this fall. One of the most interesting post-season storylines has involved the unexpected romance between Tyler Cameron and Gigi Hadid . After being rejected by Hannah in favor of Jed Wyatt (biggest f–k up in Bachelorette history?) Tyler began dating Gigi , and the two of them seemed to be getting serious. But after just two months of dating, sources have confirmed to E! News that Cameron and Hadid have called it quits. Neither party has spoken about the split publicly, but Tyler hinted at a split during a recent interview. “That’s my friend,” Tyler told E! when asked about Gigi. “We hung out a few times. She’s doing her thing now in Paris and killin’ it so…” Needless to say, Tyler is downplaying the situation considerably when he says that he and Gigi “hung out a few times.” Cameron and Hadid vacationed together and were spotted on numerous dates in the NYC area during their time together. Just last week, Tyler attended the funeral of Gigi’s grandmother . It’s unclear how serious these two were, but this was definitely more than just a fling. In fact, Tyler says he was offered a chance to be the next Bachelor , and it’s widely believed that he passed up the opportunity because of his relationship with Gigi. Instead, the gig went to Peter Weber, who’s basically the only one of Hannah’s frontrunners who didn’t go on to date a celebrity. Currently, it looks likew the relationship between Mike Johnson and Demi Lovato is heating up, and Johnson gushed about his A-list boo in a recent interview. “We’ve gone on more than one date. I like her tattoos. We both have a lot of tattoos and she kisses really well,” Mike said. “I’m getting to know her for her.” Hannah may not have been lucky in love herself. But she’s certainly proven to be a good luck charm for the dudes who competed for her roses!

Kenya Moore: Marc Daly CHEATED on Me Left and Right!!

Even though Kenya Moore is returning for Season 12 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta , her love life isn’t doing nearly as well as her reality career. Indeed, in September we learned that she regained her peach but lost her love, as she announced that she’s divorcing Marc Daly. Now, we finally know why. Dude wanted her to give up her whole life for him, then went and cheated on her left and right. On Thursday, Us Weekly reported that Marc Daly was cheating on Kenya, and this wasn’t just a single mistress or a one-time thing. “Marc has had multiple affairs on Kenya,” the insider reveals. “She walked away from her career for him,” the source observes. “And,” the insider notes. “He had no problem with that.” The source then accuses: “and no problem disrespecting her.” Just weeks ago, on September 19, Kenya announced that her marriage is over already. “It is with profound sadness that I regret to inform my fans that I am divorcing my husband, Marc Daly,” Kenya began. Her statement went out of its way to be vague. “Due to recent and ongoing circumstances,” she explained. “I can no longer continue in the marriage.” That could be anything and everything, and she knew it. “My sole concern and focus is and will always be my daughter, Brooklyn,” Kenya correctly added. Once you create a person, you owe them everything. The best of your attention, your patience, your love, and your time. She goes on to refer to Brooklyn as “my miracle baby.” Notably, Kenya gave birth to Brooklyn past the age at which doctors generally recommend a pregnancy. Kenya affirmed: “She was made in love and true commitment.” Clearly, that last line was a reference to Marc’s cheating, possibly intended to point fans in that direction without saying anything directly. Finally, Kenya concluded: “I ask for our privacy to be respected moving forward.” Not to be all that’s what they all say , but generally, most statements aboud divorce, separation, breaking up, or a family death end with that line. Up to a point, it’s a very reasonable request, but they know that fans will be curious. And, of course, reality stars and other celebrities know that their cultural relevance is largely contingent upon fans keeping up with their lives. It’s obviously hugely disappointing to hear that Marc is allegedly a no good cheater. One, that’s hugely unfair to Kenya, a human being with feelings. It’s also unfair to Brooklyn, though she doesn’t know that yet. But as you may recall, Marc was aggressively camera-shy, to the point where they had a secret wedding that almost got Kenya fired on the spot. His reason for avoiding The Real Housewives of Atlanta was that he felt that the show portrays black men in a negative light. In particular, he resented how black men seemed to be shown to be worse partners in comparison to white men. He was absolutely right to say that. People have written entire dissertations on reality shows and this one in particular. Reality television rewards bad bheavior in its stars, but has a particularly negative effect upon public perceptions of black stars. Eventually, Marc did agree to appear on the show. But he can’t blame Bravo’s cameras for his infidelity, now can he? Unfortunately, someone can be right about an important issue and still be a garbage person in their private life.

Colombian Castaways Held On To Cocaine Bales After Shipwreck

Source: SOPA Images / Getty Three smugglers are thanking both the heavens and the infamous coca plant after a harrowing experience. The trio hung on to their product, bales of cocaine, for dear life while waiting for help. Raw Story is reporting that the trio were on route to transport 1.2 tons of cocaine from Tumaco, Colombia . While in the middle of the Pacific sea they were met with very rough waters; so rough that their ship was capsized by a wave. The men did not have a safety raft forcing them to keep afloat while holding onto their bales of the illegal substance. Seven hours later the Colombian coast guard found them about 30 nautical miles from shore. Captain Jorge Maldonado of Colombia’s Task Force Against Drug Trafficking described the scene. “The coastguard arrived and these three people were floating on a material that by its characteristics resembled drugs ” he revealed. While the unidentified males were still in good health they were formally arrested once they arrived on the mainland. The Task Force say that they are still looking for a fourth man who was a part of their crew but has yet to be located. Photo: Getty
