Recently single Halsey, who’s drug addict boyfriend G-Easy, went on to hang with Demi Lovato, possibly almost killing her while she tried to come across as cool and with it when doing the opiates, you to keep up with the trash like Halsey he was used to….is on a mission… That mission is to draw as much attention to herself as possible, whether through slutty content that got her noticed by the DJs who hired her to do vocals on their tracks that gave her a career…or pushing the black agenda, because her dad is black, despite her being white as fuck, because understanding the black plight as a white black person pretending to be white until it is beneficial to pretend you are black is something she really grasps…. I figure if you’re out there being clickbait, do it this way…it’s more interesting for us perverted porned up people to buy into and get behind…it’s better than her taking her political agenda, or race agenda, or whining about how she liked drugs and is creating a movie on being a 2015 club kid… Full garbage.

Workout, get rest, drink water, and eat well is the code. Even though we all know Black don’t crack, there are still ways to go the extra mile and maintain your melanin’s power.

And those are just a few Black Stars who have prefer a plant-based and dairy free diet.

Source: The Game during an appearance on VH1’s ‘The Amber Rose Show’ Amber gets to the bottom of The Game’s sexy social media posts and talks to him about hooking up with fans. F Yesterday (July 23) Amber Rose launched her new escapex app and to bolster its success the founder of the Slut Walk has announced that her fans won’t just get a social media platform to build on, but they’ll also get some financial backing. Designed to empower women who want to better themselves and their lives, escapex will also have a feature that involves Amber Rose coming out of pocket to help fund some of its users tuition costs, pay some others rent, and fund some business endeavors. Yeah, you read that right. Amber Rose’s going to be investing in people. According to Page Six , Rose feels that her Rosebud community deserves to be seen and heard and she’s doing what she can to help them do just that. “I wanted it to be very personal so it’s going to be full of content you can’t find on any of my other platforms,” Rose said in a news release. “I also know how amazing my fans are, so this gives me the opportunity to show them I see and hear them. I want to give back and build a tight-knit community in which they can all feel empowered to be themselves with the support of other members of the amazing Amber Rose community.” And as for getting funded personally by Rose, “Amber will be funding these projects on her own as she wants to support the individuals who have been supporting her along the way,” the rep told us. You can hate on a lot of things about Amber Rose’s lifestyle, but you really can’t hate on that.
Source: Allen Berezovsky / Getty The completion of any relationship leaves behind an uncomfortable gaping space that echoes against its own empty caverns until it’s filled again. Our significant others become our routine–our days, our hours, our lunches, our mornings, and one day, after many bad days, that partner becomes a habit we must force ourselves to break. The familiarity of this painful cycle was perfectly captured in the season 2 finale of HBO’s hit show ‘Insecure.’ We were willing companions on the Issa & Lawrence relationship ride and then, abruptly, the gears of the rollercoaster track stopped mid-way uphill. Apologies and fantasy sequences wrapped up their fictional romance with a bow, yet somehow, we want more from their union. Show creator Issa Rae’s decision to not bring Lawrence along for season 3 is a profound and necessary character development choice. Issa literally set her past on fire (RIP to that apartment) and is actively making moves to incorporate Daniel (Y’Lan Noel) into her permanent ho-tation. Despite the audience’s devout worship of #LawrenceHive, where would his character fit into Issa’s refreshed life plot? And lest us not forget, Issa is the focal point of this show. No matter how wrapped up we get in the storylines of Molly, Dro, etc, they are all orbiting planets in the Issa universe. I respect the creative decision to keep the focus on Issa as a woman versus her ancillary (and rotating) male counterparts. Lawrence was not a co-star in this story, and we ultimately have to respect Issa’s fictional ex fading into the background just like our own exes would (or should!) “We want to stay as true to life as possible. They had a great conversation at the end of season two and it was just about like, hey, she’s moving on Daniel, sometimes we have those conversations,” Rae told Vulture . “You never see the exes again. And it’s okay! You gotta explore life without Lawrence.” Source: Paul Zimmerman / Getty And maybe we would all benefit from going no contact with ‘our personal Lawrence.’ Characters existing beyond their expiration date tend to be toxic on and off screen. Research shows that frequent contact wth an ex is associated with decreased satisfaction with your current partner over time. Studies even correlate people who stay in contact with their exes with psychopathic personality disorders such as narcissism. Psychology aside, two things literally cannot occupy the same space at the same time, that includes the past and present. Even though most exes do the ‘make up to break up’ dance for years, maybe there is a lesson to be gleaned from Issa’s decisiveness.
