GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINEES ANNOUNCEMENT

The nominations for the 74th Golden Globe Awards were announced this morning.  The awards will be presented on Sunday, January 8 at the Beverly Hills Hotel live on NBC.

It seems the chronic color issue that crops up every award show season is a non-issue on the Golden Globes List, one of its most diverse showings to date.

  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.
