A revolutionary week...Have a PLuSH Martin Luther King {Jr} day & Celebrate Obama's Inauguration day...as time grows near!

I believe that it's very significant for the following 2 days to be side by side, hand in hand, day by day. Martin Luther King Jr carried on the dream and has been one of the people to bring about the most significant change, of our time, until now...

...when it becomes the job of another man, Barack Obama and his marches...(we all must march on with him)


Last minute sketch, for Michelle Obama & the kids, by Rachel Roy
I like the asymmetrical ivory gown (it would look demure against Michelle's caramel complexion) The children's dresses, shoes, hairstyle, gloves....Love Them! I think this is a winner!!! Can't wait to watch the Inauguration Ball tomorrow at 10pm

Barack Obama and, his right hand, Michelle have a lot to dance about...they have literally raised the roof and/or glass ceiling off of the bureaucratic walls of the nation.

Barack Obama's letter to his daughters
Dear Malia (bottom right) and Sasha,



I know that you’ve both had a lot of fun these last two years on the campaign trail, going to picnics and parades and state fairs, eating all sorts of junk food your mother and I probably shouldn’t have let you have. But I also know that it hasn’t always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you both are about that new puppy, it doesn’t make up for all the time we’ve been apart.


I know how much I’ve missed these past two years, and today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our family on this journey.When I was a young man, I thought life was all about me—about how I’d make my way in the world, become successful, and get the things I want. But then the two of you came into my world with all your curiosity and mischief and those smiles that never fail to fill my heart and light up my day. And suddenly, all my big plans for myself didn’t seem so important anymore. I soon found that the greatest joy in my life was the joy I saw in yours. And I realized that my own life wouldn’t count for much unless I was able to ensure that you had every opportunity for happiness and fulfillment in yours.




In the end, girls, that’s why I ran for President: because of what I want for you and for every child in this nation.I want all our children to go to schools worthy of their potential—schools that challenge them, inspire them, and instill in them a sense of wonder about the world around them. I want them to have the chance to go to college—even if their parents aren’t rich. And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own kids and retire with dignity.




I want us to push the boundaries of discovery so that you’ll live to see new technologies and inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer. And I want us to push our own human boundaries to reach beyond the divides of race and region, gender and religion that keep us from seeing the best in each other. Sometimes we have to send our young men and women into war and other dangerous situations to protect our country—but when we do, I want to make sure that it is only for a very good reason, that we try our best to settle our differences with others peacefully, and that we do everything possible to keep our servicemen and women safe.


And I want every child to understand that the blessings these brave Americans fight for are not free—that with the great privilege of being a citizen of this nation comes great responsibility. That was the lesson your grandmother tried to teach me when I was your age, reading me the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence and telling me about the men and women who marched for equality because they believed those words, put to paper two centuries ago, should mean something. She helped me understand that America is great not because it is perfect but because it can always be made better—and that the unfinished work of perfecting our union falls to each of us. It’s a charge we pass on to our children, coming closer with each new generation to what we know America should be.


I hope both of you will take up that work, righting the wrongs that you see and working to give others the chances you’ve had. Not just because you have an obligation to give something back to this country that has given our family so much—although you do have that obligation -- but because you have an obligation to yourself. Because it is only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you will realize your true potential. These are the things I want for you—to grow up in a world with no limits on your dreams and no achievements beyond your reach, and to grow into compassionate, committed women who will help build that world.





And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream and grow and thrive that you girls have. That’s why I’ve taken our family on this great adventure. I am so proud of both of you. I love you more than you can ever know. And I am grateful every day for your patience, poise, grace and humor as we prepare to start our new life together in the White House.



Love, Dad.
Barack Obama

~PLuSH Empress is a Pop Culture Junkie~ Run It...

Life in the FAB Lane is on it's second season...all hail Kimora Lee, Ming Lee & Aoki Lee Simmons
Both Angela & Vanessa Simmons have moved out & moved on from Rev Run's House. They are on their own living the California Life. Catch up with them on their new show Daddy's Girls on MTV...those Louboutins Angie's wearing are Clutch!
Cast photo below (from left to right) includes: friend...Alycia (what is she wearing?...this ain't Girlicious!...ruined it for everybody), Vanessa Simmons, cousin Jessica and Angela Simmons
From G's...
[Mr. Fonzworth we need to be in touch I have a couple people I want to sign up, their willing...come to Canada!]

To Gent's.

From G's to Gent's is a new reality series hosted and produced by the industries finest Fonzworth Bentley (Puffy's former assisstant), photographed in the brown pinstripe suit above.
He opens his club to 10+ contestants who claim they are G's, aka gangsters, with the dreams of changing their attitudes and perspectives before they lose all control.
The Gent's must read the Daily Gent News and complete a new task that teaches them the in's and out's of important lessons such as ettiqutte, while trying not to rip each other's heads off. In the end, the person who is chosen to be the first representative of the Bentley Gentlemens Club wins a large sum of cash $! Provided they use it to turn their lives around and become proper business men. Salute to a debonair Fonzworth Bentley who keeps these men in check.
This show is truely REVOLUTIONARY! Jah says so.

Let me introduce you to the winner: Creepa, a previous self-professed "goon" -- someone who is hired to terrorize; a roughneck, or as they would say in QB, a thoroughbred. (mind you, goons often have intense heart...love their people...ride or die for the movement...their a sort of panther if you will)


On his journey, Creepa was generally the big brother of the house...no one wanted to mess with him, he spoke the truth and protected turf. There were many barriers Creepa had to overcome for himself though; he went through many sorts of rebirths...a mighty long baptism. He ditched the mouth full of gold, the shades, aka hater blockers, and even switched up his hair style all on his own. A man's first helicopter ride (on the way to lunch with Fonzworth. I know how that must feel...BIG GRIN :-)

Everyone meet Thaddeus, formerly known as Creepa! The first member of the Bentley Gentlemen's club; he cleans up well. I must say when he first came on the show...I knew he would win. The best man: has heart, diligence, dedication, humble, shows authority, recognizes the good in life and in others. A true Gentle man. {watch season 1 at http://www.mtv.ca/ }
Keep up with the stars of "the City." Whitney Port (center...formerly on the Hills), Olivia Palermo (left...socialite) and Erin (right) as they focus their dedication on careers and social lives in New York City. {visit http://www.mtv.ca/ }
Loving their shoe game...the fashion in this show is BOD (BTS with in house designers)

Next up is Gorilla Unit, onto bigger and better projects. 50 cent presents The Money & The Power, is a reality series that is currently airing its first season on Much.
50 cent, or as the business world reffers to him as, Curtis Jackson has come up with a show based on providing a hard-working someone with an opportunity for his investment in their business venture. The competitors are split into two teams: Team Money & Team Power. Which do you think wins more challenges? That should be simple...team power of course! It's down to 4 competitors: Mehgan, in yellow to the left, Cornbreadd, far right, Larry in yellow to the right and Ryan, third from left. Stay tuned.

A new TV era with JD
The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency:
Yes, you all know her from ANTM as the self professed "world's first supermodel." Janice Doreen Dickinson has moved her agnecy of models down to Miami. Watch her whoop them into shape and struggle to agree with her business partner. Overall, on the entertainment factor...I get my laugh in!

Janice hasn't changed a bit...still needs to grasp the center of attention...well, why not?

Yep, that's right...I do Keep Up With the Kardashians.

And you thought the Ritchie & Hiltons were bad...
Try dealing with socialite Kim Kard's family! The Kardashian's meet the Jenner's...wowsers! This party of eight are the most rambunctious familial group since the Brady Bunch. Poor Bruce and Rob surrounded by that much profanity; actually never mind, Bruce and Kris need to try and do a better job with the parenting practices. {can't lie my favourite episode is when momma Kris takes the girls to the shooting range}
