“I Was One Of Those People Who Knew I Would Be A Mother Later In Life”: Meagan Good’s Ready To Have Kids

Continued here:

Source: Gregg DeGuire / Getty Via Madamenoire : In an exclusive sneak peek of an upcoming episode of  STEVE , as in Steve Harvey’s talk show,   Meagan Good  opens up about her desire to be a mother. The 37-year-old visited the show with her  Intruder  co-star Michael Ealy , and at one point in the conversation, Ealy’s son is brought up. This becomes a segue into talking about whether or not she and husband  DeVon Franklin  plan to have children. “Now Meagan, you just sitting here listening to this conversation about these kids and everything…” Harvey says in the clip, putting Good on the spot without formally asking the question. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news.  ( Terms and conditions ). After laughing, Good decides to answer. “I’ma say this, and it’s funny because I usually don’t talk about it because I was one of those people who knew I would be a mother later in life,” she said. “And we talk about it a lot. Like, [Michael Ealy] basically tried to convince me to start like last year. But now I think I’m in a place now where I’m actually ready.” As the crowd applauds, she and Harvey have a moment, somewhat emotional and centered in faith, where he tells her that she would be a great parent. “Do you have any idea how fabulous of a mother you would be?” he asks. “I receive that,” she says in response. “Thank you.” Sign Up For Our Newsletter!

I receive that,” she says. “I receive that.” Good and Franklin have been married since 2012, and neither came into the relationship with children. This isn’t the first time that Good has been put on the spot, publicly, about her plans for motherhood. Early last year the topic was brought up by Loni Love on  The Real . “You know, I’m a take my time,” Good said when Love told her she and Franklin would have some “pretty” kids. “I had two monkeys a few years ago, and now I have two hairless cats so I’m kind of like a never-neverland person. So I’m going to wait.” “In the right time,” she added. “I’m going to take my time, but in the right time we’ll have them. We definitely want them though.” SEE ALSO:  Trailer: Dennis Quaid Is Meagan Good and Michael Ealy’s Worst Nightmare In ‘The Intruder’ [VIDEO] I’ve already spoken in the past about how I don’t like that people ask married folks, whether privately or publicly, when they’re going to have children. You never know what people are going through behind the scenes. Also, they can’t often just decide they’re ready to be parents and it automatically happens. Some things are out of our overall control. However, if she and her husband are thinking about starting to make an effort to expand their family, I wish them the best of luck. As she said in the past, in the right time, everything will work out, and that time is not dictated by the world. Check out a clip of her chat with Harvey, which airs on Friday on NBC.

Scary Christmas! Jordan Peele Finally Reveales The Trailer For His Latest Horror Film ‘Us’ [VIDEO]

Source: Courtesy Universal Pictures / Courtesy Universal Pictures The Trailer For ‘US’ Is Terrifying After sending shockwaves across contemporary culture and setting a new standard for provocative, socially-conscious horror films with his directorial debut, Get Out, Academy Award®-winning visionary Jordan Peele returns with another original nightmare that he has written, directed and produced. Set in present day along the iconic Northern California coastline, Us, from Monkeypaw Productions, stars Oscar® winner Lupita Nyong’o as Adelaide Wilson, a woman returning to her beachside childhood home with her husband, Gabe (Black Panther’s Winston Duke ), and their two children (Shahadi Wright Joseph, Evan Alex) for an idyllic summer getaway. Haunted by an unexplainable and unresolved trauma from her past and compounded by a string of eerie coincidences, Adelaide feels her paranoia elevate to high-alert as she grows increasingly certain that something bad is going to befall her family. After spending a tense beach day with their friends, the Tylers (Emmy winner Elisabeth Moss, Tim Heidecker, Cali Sheldon, Noelle Sheldon), Adelaide and her family return to their vacation home. When darkness falls, the Wilsons discover the silhouette of four figures holding hands as they stand in the driveway. Us pits an endearing American family against a terrifying and uncanny opponent: doppelgängers of themselves. Writer and director Peele produces for his Monkeypaw Productions alongside Sean McKittrick, Jason Blum, and Monkeypaw’s Ian Cooper. Us will be released by Universal Pictures on Friday, March 15, 2019. Are you excited to see this? Or scared out of your mind?

FBI Confirms Gillum Is Not Corrupt And That DeSantis Lied

View original post here:

T he cloud of corruption finally lifted from Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum with the release on Wednesday of an FBI report on its probe of city officials. It confirmed Gillum’s denial of wrongdoing and showed that his Republican rival for Florida governor Ron DeSantis exploited the investigation to win the election. See Also: Andrew Gillum Lost Florida Election Because Of Racism, Democrats Say Gillum’s name was not listed among those indicted by federal authorities in an investigation into whether businessmen were able to influence Tallahassee development projects, Politico reported. DeSantis led a racist campaign that poured millions of dollars into painting Gillum, who was running to become the state’s first African-American governor, as corrupt—even though Gillum had always said he was not a target of the probe. Republicans spent at least $7 million on TV ads to connect Gillum to the investigation. It paid off, with DeSantis winning a narrow victory. “If the FBI had something on Gillum, they would have brought it by now or it would be in this indictment. They got nothing on Gillum. He got screwed,” said Steven R. Andrews , a Republican strategist who is also a criminal defense attorney representing one of the defendants in the case. NewsOne talked with @AndrewGillum about his campaign, as he races toward the finish line in the #FloridaPrimary for governor…. https://t.co/e2D9Xg3KE8 @peoplefor pic.twitter.com/aKGq5PwpWf — NewsOne (@newsone) August 28, 2018 Gillum’s connection to the investigation was reportedly centered on his relationship with local businessman and lobbyist Adam Corey , a college friend who was previously Gillum’s campaign treasurer. Corey had reportedly set up meetings between undercover FBI agents, posing as land developers, and Tallahassee officials—including Gillum. The FBI investigation was just one of the tools in DeSantis’ arsenal that included racist attacks. DeSantis has a long history of associating with white nationalists. Less than 24 hours after winning the GOP nomination in August, DeSantis blew a racist dog whistle when he warned Florida voters not to “monkey this up” by voting for Gillum. Soon after, white supremacists answered the whistle by sending out racist robocalls. Another series of robocalls attacking Gillum went out during their first debate. Gillum decidedly out-dueled DeSantis in the first debate through his mastery of the issues. But the Trump-backed candidate often used allegations of corruption to score points against Gillum. Now that the FBI investigation is in the rearview mirror, Gillum can focus on his political future. There were reports that he met recently with former President Barack Obama .

Gillum Claps Back At Trump With HBCU Pride

View post:

F lorida’s Democratic nominee for governor Andrew Gillum returned fire at President Donald Trump  one day after the divider in chief insulted Gillum’s HBCU (historically Black colleges and universities) education in a tweet on Monday. See Also: Trump Takes A Swipe At Andrew Gillum’s HBCU Education The Tallahassee mayor tweeted Tuesday morning that he’s a proud graduate of  Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University (FAMU). Gillum could make history as Florida’s first African-American governor. He’s in a tight race against Ron DeSantis , a candidate with a long history of being outspokenly racist against Black people. The comments from Trump, who has readily endorsed DeSantis, came against the backdrop of several polls indicating that Gillum holds a slim lead over DeSantis days after two debates in which Gillum outperformed his rival. In his response, Gillum recommended that Trump learn a few things about FAMU’s long history of providing stellar education to African-Americans. p.s. Mr. @realDonaldTrump , I am a graduate of THE Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University (FAMU) — an HBCU founded on October 3, 1887. Google it. https://t.co/I8uOokptJA — Andrew Gillum (@AndrewGillum) October 30, 2018 Trump has no interest in uniting the nation at a time when the country is reeling from domestic terror attacks from white supremacists. The president suggested in his tweet that Gillum’s education at FAMU was somehow inferior to DeSantis’ Ivy League education. He also called Gillum “a thief” and incompetent as a mayor. Gillum tweeted this response to Trump doubling down in a Fox News interview, “I heard @realDonaldTrump ran home to @FoxNews to lie about me. But as my grandmother told me — never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty, but the pig likes it. So ignore him and vote, Florida!” When pressed on Monday by reporters about what exactly the president meant by calling Gillum a thief, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders declined to elaborate, according to Politico . Trump’s remarks may very well backfire by galvanizing young African-Americans who, like Gillum, are proud HBCU graduates.
