buzzz worthy. . .



Celine brought everyone to tears in her tribute to Paris, Justin got rained on, Trainor and Puth needed to get a room and Pentatonix  harmonized the Star Wars theme, but the most memorable moment of the American Music Awards came when the host, J Lo opened the show at the Microsoft with a musical tribute to the songs of the year.  J Lo should be crowned president of the over 40 club because she slayed the stage and could clearly dance a ring around her younger peers. Her performance got a  standing ovation to the at Sunday night event. The former Fly Girl stopped in the middle of singing and said, "This is about the music," then broke into the dance routine.  The opening was easily the top performance of the night.  In fact the entire ensemble of dancers were so "on point" that one of the ladies literally dance out of her clothes, exposing her buttocks.  However, she quickly recovered for the major wardrobe malfunction, never missing a beat.  The show was extraordinarily entertaining overall.

  By Mona Austin One of the most eligible bacherlors in Christianity has tied the knot - Marvin Winans remarries After being single for almost 30 years, legendary gospel singer and Bishop Marvin L. Winans, Sr. has wed his long time girlfriend Deneen R. Carter. Carter is a 57-year-old physical therapist and minister at Perfecting Church in Detroit, founded by Winans. Little is known about the bride publicly. The gospel legend introduced the now Mrs. Winans as his fiance to the congregants of Perfecting in October of 2021. The couple had been in a relationship for 15 years. Pastor Winans was previously married to fellow gospel singer Vicki Winans (with whom he has two sons) for 16 years before they divorced in 1995.

If we are judging by floral count, this could be one of th...

The lesser known scandalous life of Frederick Douglass

buzzz worthy. . . By Mona Austin Much of what the average American knows about Frederick Douglass lies in the pages of "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave."  His memory has lived on through the annals of history as a heroic abolitionist. A recent article revered Douglass  as "A king among men."  Note to The Atlantic writer who wrote those words in the article  Memo to the White House on the Contributions of Frederick Douglass  --  applying t hat very Biblical reference to Douglass is an overstatement.  The article was a response  to President Donald Trump saying at a White House "Listening Session " on Black History Month that   Douglass is  “an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, I notice.”  The Atlantic article was intended to show Mr.Trump and others who may be ignorant of his significance that Douglass was not on the sidelines of Bl...
