I showed up in Adams Morgan for the CNN shoot around 7:30 last night. Donnell and I were a little early so we sat down and had a drink. The spot was Evolve Wine Bar on Columbia. It's a little romantic wine bar that has good food and a soulful atmosphere.
The shoot went exceptionally well. We talked about President Barack Obama's style. ...

That's right people don't adjust your screens, there's no technical difficulty. I'm not sure if it was my model making technique on MTV, fighting with that crazy English chick Becky on VH-1, the women I helped get dates on The Ricki Lake Show, The formerly obese man that I gave a fresh, new look to on TV One or my heart to ...

I had a fabulous time with my "foodie" friends last night. I have to admit, I haven't always been a fan of Bravo's Top Chef (only because I never took the time to check it out) but now that I have a friend that is a season five contestant, I've become instantly smitten with the show. My friend's name is Carla and she won ...

On a crazy note, I've been having phone issues for weeks but I haven't wanted to get a new phone. There "was" so much information that accumulated over time. The people, places, text messages, addresses, LA, NYC, Paris... Trust me, you wouldn't believe it if I showed you. Well, last night I was using the car charger in Donnell's truck and within ...

Do you ever see actors on talk shows that say that they never watch their own work? It always seemed like such a load of crap to me. I was watching The View last week and Mickey Rourke was on saying that maybe in 4-5 years he'll watch himself in his Golden Globe winning and Oscar nominated film "The Wrestler". I remember ...

I spent Saturday night at the annual event for area teens called Teens Count. It was held at D.A.R. Constitution Hall and the kids turned it out! The fashion, creativity and runway technique was in full effect! I was a judge at the event and my dear friend BJ Coleman from Kimora Lee Simmon's "Life in the Fab Lane" hosted the event. ...

These days Teens are pulled in a million different directions. They're faced with how to be cool, what to wear, the pressure of getting good grade and establishing their own identity. As an Uncle of a teenage niece (Anasia), I know the pressures that these kids face. I can also remember that not so long ago, I was dealing with the same issues as ...

There is a new energy in the air of DC. You all heard what a life changing experience I shared with millions of my fellow Americans over the past week and I have to say that I wasn't quite sure what we'd all feel like after all of the festivities were over and our new President settled into his role. Speaking from a ...

Today was a day that we should all remember forever. I was so moved and inspired to think bigger, do better and work harder based on President Obama's speech and the historic relevance of the situation all together. The images. The history. My goodness, we are all a part of it. Could our world really be changing? Is anythiing really possible? ...
