 Hey y'all, how are y'all doing? We're back for another chit chat video. I hope you're a piece of your chocolate Capricorn. Damn, it's lucky. Give me, come on over here with an attitude. Oh y'all, hold on. I had a bagel, I was craving bagels in my vlog. I sit up here and had it left over one. I can't do it, y'all. I don't eat, first of all, that's the first time I had a bagel in a long time and cream cheese, I normally don't do all that. So, girl, let's just get right into this and talk about your digestive issues. So, y'all know how we do this. I talk about what's going on in my personal life. I talk about when I'm watching on YouTube and what I'm watching on TV. So, all right, you guys, what we're gonna be doing is, this was cute, but I told y'all this lasted, honestly, excuse me, it still lasted, this is three days after this. The second day, it still had a little curl and I got like two or three compliments and I was like, girl, thank you. But now, you know what I'm gonna do? No, I'm not gonna do it again. So, what we're gonna do is retwist my hair. I ended that quick, didn't I? We're going to retwist my hair because your mother-in-law wants me to see her in long view, my mother. And so, I'm going to be using Oyawn's Honeydew Leave-In, Crya Botanicals Mango Twist and Hoding Cream and then we have Echo Styler Gel. Now, this stuff, I think she sent this to me. Did she send this to me? No, she sent me something else that was big and it was, it's like $30. I love this product though, I absolutely like Crya Botanicals. I love this product, I love it, love it, love it. So, we're gonna be setting my hair in twist, girl. I got a bunch of bobby pins in here. I wasn't aware of. My hair is, a mess, mess, mess. Let's go ahead, let me go get my phone mirror. Okay, ooh, y'all. Y'all can see that my hair is actually a dark brown. You see that? You see that color? You see it? Y'all have to clean off this mirror. All right, so yeah, I know I like a deep part. Look at that, deep part. Okay, let me take off this watch. I got this cute new Apple Band and I always get my Apple Band from, actually I got this one through Amazon. Isn't that cute? That's cute, y'all see my nails? I got some new spring nails on and those you don't know, I primarily wear press on nails but what I do is I like to, I keep the extra nails when I put my nails on and then I mix them. I mix them. I got some compliments on the nails I was wearing before and they were some that I created myself, a really cute blue set. So, y'all, let's just section off this wig. Section this wig off. Girl, I have a lot of hair. Man, it's all messed up. I had to tell your brother long, he needs to leave me alone. Y'all, y'all, I'm just gonna say this, I'm gonna say this. Yo, yo, my husband loves him, some Vivian. He loves him, so I don't know how to say it what about me and Crass. Pb, y'all up on me. All up on me. All up on me. Like I gotta make sure the birth control is on like every, cause I can't be 50 with a newborn or I'll be like 45 with a toddler. Nah, so, uh-uh, I'm not told him just now. I said, I need for you not to mess with me for a while. Like, give me two days. Like, I know there's a little team like give me two days, leave me alone. Like, I'm glad, I'm glad he about that. He about to get a job, y'all, I'm couple more days, like. But girl, yeah. All right, y'all, personally, like besides your brother-in-law, always messing with me. Everything's going well. We're settling in here in Dallas. And I'm feeling a little bad for my baby because I'm a type of mom that I typically have things going on so that my child can have adequate time with other children. And I just, you know, we've been busy in doing stuff and our priorities have been to make sure they were settling in, locate our adopters, start our appointments with our adopters and yeah. And so that was the priority, of course, with JB School and all that. If you watched my blog, you know that JB has been diagnosed with ADHD, formerly diagnosed. I'm not just saying, oh, I think my child has attention on issues. We went through the process when he was in public school and then we went to a pediatrician who really has to do it. And so it's a process, you know. And with JB, his attention issues come up mostly in school. And so I've been working with him and talking to his teacher and there are certain things that I do as a parent just to make sure that he stays on track with even everyday things at home. And so yeah, there were just some things that my husband and I were concerned about with JB, just, you know, with the attention and there are a couple of things that he's not staying on track. JB is still not eating any meat, which with him, it's a texture thing. He still rarely eats new food, y'all. All that food I be cooking, he refuses to eat. I know every, all of my friends who have older kids, they're like, you're gonna be eating. You're gonna be eating your words once he hits puberty because then he's gonna be eating everything. Okay, all right. So anyway, y'all, enough of that. Everything else is going good, going well. So this is what I'm doing with this hair, y'all. I need to do them a little bit bigger. This is too small. So I'm gonna be doing the twist just a little bit bigger. So, girl, let's just get right into what I'm watching on YouTube. Not really watching a lot of YouTubers, you guys. I normally don't. I'm just being honest. I use YouTube for information. So like, if there's something that I want to watch or if there's a scene from a movie that I want to rewatch, if there's something I want to learn, which is by the way, those of you who don't know, YouTube is one of the top sources for learning information or learning something. Just to let y'all know. Anyway, so, we're gonna talk about this first. I tried to see. I did not watch the Oscars last night. I didn't even know what's going on, y'all. But of course, I found out while I was still up about the altercation with Will Smith going up on the stage and hitting Chris Rock. Like, y'all, I seriously got secondhand embarrassment. Watching that. At first, I thought it was, you know, like a lot of people, I didn't know if it was real. I'm like, this can't be real. And then when he was basically, when I saw people's faces in the audience, especially Lupita that was behind him, who looked absolutely beautiful. When I saw their reaction in the audience, I'm like, oh my God, that this is real. This isn't fake. Chow, look, this is all I have to say about this. First of all, it was inappropriate for Chris to make that comment. Like, Will was laughing at him and then something changed. And there were some people, I saw some comments where people were saying that he didn't like Jada's reaction. I understand that he also made a joke about them in 2016. Again, I think that they were both wrong. Is this a not? What the hell that is? Y'all see that? You, yeah, I probably don't see it. That's a not. I need to be careful. It was just, it's again, secondhand embarrassment. I think that Will Smith, we all know some, we don't know what's going on in their marriage. But clearly, in my opinion, they have a toxic marriage, Will and Jada. I think that, you know, we had Jada's how much he had an entanglement with August, which was or is her son's friend. And then you had Will Smith come up just a few months ago saying there's been no infidelity in the marriage. Like, what are you talking about? So either there's been no infidelity or you guys haven't opened their marriage or an agreement to where you know what's going on. So to you, it's not cheating because you are aware of it. Will is struggling with some things on different levels. That just escalated things for him. That was it for him. So that was displaced anger. So now, what is the theme that we're talking about now? Even me. We're not talking about, I don't even know what he wanted the Oscar for. The only thing we're gonna be hearing about for the next two or three days instead of acknowledging that he won an Oscar for the first time, mind you. Now we're talking about him going upstairs, going up on stage. So another thing that I saw on YouTube because I wanted to look it up, Senator Cory Booker hyping up Judge Brown, who is currently being nominated for Supreme Court. And you guys, I saw a small clip of it on Instagram because I've followed, I forgot to see it in, has her name Angie? Fair-skinned girl that sometimes wears the braids. You know what I'm talking about? She shared it on her Instagram and I could tell it was edited and chopped up, but it was so great to hear that. And so I wanted to see the entire, his entire speech. Again, this is from Representative or Senator, excuse me, Cory Booker. So I went on Instagram and I spent a good 30, 40 minutes watching his speech. Not only did I did that, but I also went back and looked at her interactions with the other people who were basically, it was mostly, it was like two Republicans I saw. No, one of them is here in Texas. Drilling her, again, this is Judge Jackson. And so it's just, in long story short, Cory basically said there is nothing that anybody could do or say to kill my joy. This is a joyous moment for us as Americans and as black people. So there's something important that people need to recognize. When you are one or few in a space of primarily, excuse me, white people, oftentimes your expertise, your knowledge is often judged or misjudged or sometimes they want to know, how did you get here? And so Cory was basically trying to say you deserve this. You are worthy of this. We come from a people, an ancestry or lineage of people who love this country when the country does not love you. And that's something monumental you guys. And so I started tearing up child. I had JB watch it and JB was shocked. I said she would be the first black woman in this position and JB looked at me just to see him. You have to understand, he's only nine. So if she hears something like this and he knows how long we've been on this earth and he's like thinking, how is that possible? I can tell in his eyes, he doesn't understand. Like, how is that possible that she would be the first one? So yeah, that was just amazing to see him lift her up in that spot and just, it was a beautiful thing. And I felt hell, I felt like it was me and it made me feel proud for her. Cause I really, to be quite honest, I didn't know anything about what was going on. Yeah, I tried not to dwell in some of the political stuff cause sometimes I don't understand everything. I'm gonna be the first one to say that I don't understand all the ins and outs, but this right here was really important. So I'll say, okay. Wait a second, again, I'm watching all the crime. Watch the girl. I have a thing for y'all. Now the only thing that I am so, I know y'all are tired of it too. I am so sick and tired of hearing these stories of children being abducted, children being, I don't wanna say the word, I don't wanna get flagged. When I tell you there was another man, and I think this was in Louisiana where he killed the girlfriend and he tossed a two-year-old over the bridge, screaming and crying. I just don't get, I just don't get this behavior that is running rampant with, and it's not even just young, he was all ages that are doing this. But that's what I look at sometimes is the true crime stuff. And I just feel sick to my stomach with some of the stuff that's happening with these, defenseless children. And that's what gets me in these stories where they can't defend themselves. So what else am I watching? What else, what else, what else? We talked about Jada and Will, our guy talked about Cory Booker. What I'm watching, girl, I am watching a lot of stuff, okay? So let's start up with Snowfall. I'm disclaimer, I am gonna be giving spoilers. You don't wanna hear it, don't watch it baby. So I am watching Snowfall, girl Franklin. So look, look, look, hold on y'all. Is Mel never coming back? Is that it? Because I know that Franklin showed her that he was using that dang on cane as a prop in last season. And he really doesn't eat the cane. So I'm on episode, what episode am I on? I think I'm on episode three. And Franklin, let me just say, the actor that plays Franklin, I see him going places, you guys. He is a great, great, great actor. And so the mother, Franklin's mama, basically told Franklin's girlfriend who was pregnant that, I'ma let you know right now, but because let me back up because they got, there was a big shot, shootout in the previous episode, right? Some people got shot up, the white FBI guy, I forgot his name, he got shot up too. And so Franklin's mother was like, look, you okay now, but you best believe there's gonna always be somebody coming after y'all. And so the girlfriend who's also a lawyer was like, okay. So Franklin already told her to go home, right? Childman, Franklin got home, that place was cleared up. She had left, left him a note and of course he blew up. And so Franklin, he ends up going to the doctor's appointment and she's like, I think we need to spend some time up for her, basically. And he's like, well, I can hire her, I talked to her, what is her name, Ari. And I can have Avi, sorry, I can talk to Avi, I can have some people watch you. She's just like, no, no, no. I need to be away. And I honestly think that's a smart move on her part, but Avi said something to Franklin that made Franklin stop and think. So the one scene, I had to play it back. And I think it kind of unsettled Franklin. Avi told Franklin when he first met him, he said, wow, this guy can do anything. He can be a teacher. You know, I'm just making up stuff, y'all. I don't remember the exact words he used. But he's basically telling Franklin, Avi is an older man, so he's been there. He's been in the business for a while. So he's like, wow, this kid can do anything. He could be an author, he could be a lawyer, he could be a rabbi, he could be a drug dealer. And so he goes on to tell Franklin, he's like, you know what, I'm always going through and there's always a war. You know, I'm always, you know, it's always a war after a war. But with you, the war is inside of you. And so Franklin's like, he had to think about that for a minute. Well, that's what else. Next up, there's something about Pam. Child Renee Zulu, Renee Zulu Ringer. Y'all know I can't pronounce anything. She is playing the hell out of this role as Pamela Hupp. There's something about Pam, again, spoiler. So this is based on a true crime. And there are a couple of people, you guys, who are not happy about this series. The family apparently is not happy about the series and how they're making light of the murder. Dark humor and they don't like that, which I couldn't understand because their mother was killed. And that's absolutely horrible. But let me give you the background a little bit because I actually had saw this case. Again, because I'm into the true crime stuff. I actually have followed this case before they even made the movie. So I was excited that, oh my God, it's gonna be a movie with Renee scrunched her face. Yes, I'm here for it. So Pamela Hupp was friends with a woman named Betsy. Betsy ends up murder. Her husband calls 911, I believe the 911 call is available on YouTube, maybe wrong. But the husband calls 911 and initially says my wife has committed suicide. And the 911 dispatcher is like, well, was she sad or depressed? And she was battling cancer. And I believe this was her second battle with cancer, unfortunately. And so long story short, he was tried and convicted of murdering his wife and served, I believe, four years in jail before they found enough evidence to charge Pamela Hupp. Now, Pamela was like, why would I wanna kill her when I could just knock off my mom before more insurance money? She literally told the detectives this. The detectives did a horrible job on this case, because Pamela was the last person to see her alive. She was the person that was listed as the beneficiary. She was changed to the beneficiary. Betsy changed her and removed her husband because she thought he wasn't good with money, right? And the husband, what's his name, Russ, he had an alibi. He was with his friends. They were playing this role, playing like don't use them in debt drags and stuff. And he was like, they were doing that and there was like four or five witnesses that said that he was with us playing with you to eat shit. He didn't have time to murder his wife. Not only that, but he stopped and he got like some Orbeez and stuff. And so they had that receipt. But the prosecutors was like, okay, Russ, you got an alibi? Pamela was the last person to see her alive. And she's the beneficiary. Yeah, Russ was the last person to see her alive. And she's the beneficiary. Yeah, Russ did it. Yo, that poor man, that's just horrible. So he spent four years in jail. She was supposed to have set up a fund for her daughters because I believe they had a biological daughter and then Pamela had a daughter, excuse me, Betsy had a daughter with someone else previously or both of the kids from someone else, I'm not sure. But regardless, they had two children, Betsy and Russ. And so Pamela did not send those girls any money. Those girls didn't see a dime of that money, sadly. But this gets even worse. Pamela's mama was found dead on the ground. She said supposedly fell. And guess who was the beneficiary? Pamela was. She had like a crazy amount, like eight times the amount of ambient in her body. So supposedly, I look, I'm hypothetically, Pamela kind of gave her mother all this medicine and pushed her over to collect insurance money. So that would make a second death. Now we have a third person. Y'all, this woman is evil. I have, this case is crazy. What she got convicted of, child, what she's really in jail for is killing this man named Louis. And I don't know if she's been formally accused of killing Pamela. But she clearly, she did it, child. But she's like, so yeah, there's something about Pam. I do have that land tub on my watch list, but I'm not really a y'all. And that could be a weird space because LaKeith, let me tell you something. LaKeith who's on the show, and I find him so attractive, you guys. I know, I like the weird quiet type. It's my husband's weird and quiet, but I find LaKeith overall that weird, quiet, nerdy attractive. That was something that he did post a couple of, he had posts for a magazine and he posted on his Instagram, a picture of him wearing a very feminine-looking shirt, negligee, and some stockings and some pumps. Actually, I think it was like a suit top or something, but it was chest hair and shit. And then stockings and some pumps. And a couple of people were like, what are you doing, LaKeith? You're a black people. A couple of people were like, LaKeith, we got questions. And someone said, this ain't it, this ain't it, honey. This is my thing. Yeah, I'm not feeling that look at all. I don't like that. And hear me out. It's not like he came out of the work works like Prince. He's a good one. Prince came out here. He's like, yeah, I wear heels and I wear your girlfriend's mask here and I'll seal your girl. But and Prince was confident with it. Like, he came out here cool to collect and now he wants to wear, you know, he's like, okay, give me my pumps. I'm ready. So I'm like, I'm not. And so he ended up, another thing that didn't sit well with me, live in it. If that's what you want to do, live in it. He deleted the picture and everything. I'm like, what happened to your heels, LaKeith? So he removed the picture because of all the comments. What she has every right to do with his channel on Instagram, but I'm like, baby. You that you, anyway. So he only did this. These were photos he was sharing for a magazine cover he had did. We'll be talking about, child, we went way off, y'all know how I am. So I do have Atlanta on the bandwagon. I do have Good Morning Veronica, which is like a detective true crime type of show. I'm watching something called Bad Vegan, which is based on, it's almost like a documentary on Netflix. I'm watching that. And I am also watching Bridgerton. Yes, season two of Bridgerton is back. The Duke's fine ass isn't here, but baby, there is so much in the show that I'm not missing him as much. So in the end, again, disclaimer, we are going to be revealing some stuff. Spoiler alert. The end of season two, we found out who Lady Whistle Down is. And she is Penelope, AKA Penn. And did y'all know that the voice, the person doing the voice over is Julie Andrews, Mary Poppins. I love her, y'all. I love Mary Poppins. Anyway, it's Julie Andrews. And Julie Andrews, I have to look at her age. Mama is 86, good for her. So she does the voice over. And by the way, the guy that does to catch a predator, he does the voice over for, there's something about Pam. She's like, y'all know that, yeah. Anyway, so, Bridgeton. So now everyone wants to figure out who is, who she is. So of course, there has to be a storyline that who is going to be the new couple and they already give it to us. So the queen, honey, the queen came out. I am here for the fashions. The, whoever is responsible for the costume is doing a remarkable job. I love that the fashions aren't, because typically in this type of era, which is the 1800s, early 1800s, it can be very pale blue, white, ivory. But we get pops of red, burgundy with Lady Dunbarry. Was that how you pronounce her name, y'all? Is it Dunbarry or Danbury? Anyway, with the orange eyebrows. You get yellow with Pam. You notice that everyone has, every character, at least I've noticed that the characters tend to stay within their color scheme. Lady Dunbarry tends to stay in the warm colors like the wines, the burgannies. Kate Shema, a Sharma, excuse me, who was an Indian actress, who was absolutely breathtaking. I do appreciate that they hired or they casted a dark skin. Most of them said South Asian. Some of them were some color and typically, you know, we know that Indians can have the colorism thing too. It can get really bad with them. And a lot of that is based on their cast system. Even though I'm sorry, I'm going way off tangent. So Kate, her colors tends to be the blues. Penelope's mother has to be my best. She is dressing the hell, whoever's dressing her. All of her dresses are beautiful. Her color seems to be the greens, okay? So Daphne, she tends to be the whites, the pinks, you know, very girly. So with this season, they're trying to find the diamond. And the new diamond is Kate's younger sister, who she's been basically molding her. You two and their mother, Mary apparently had a falling out with the queen because I believe the mother, excuse me, whose name is Mary, just up in love. She up in love didn't tell anyone. And the queen was like, mm-mm, she let her know, I remember that shit. But, so anyway, lady Daphne was like, she's telling, she's letting the sisters know, since y'all up in my house, I'm gonna have you to have the best tutors. You're gonna have piano lessons. You're gonna play the harp, the cello, the flute, whatever. You know, you're gonna learn French, Portuguese. A sister, Kate was like, I've spent a great deal of time teaching my daughter. I mean, my sister, because it's almost like a daughter to her. She's like, I spent a great deal of time teaching my sister how to do all of this so that she can marry for, you know, get someone that's suitable. But there is an almost agenda to Kate's finding her sister or someone who is wealthy, which I'm not gonna give that away just in case y'all want to. But baby, Lady Dunbarry was like, I don't remember what scene it was. But, oh, this was the scene. Kate was basically like, Lady Dunbarry was questioning Kate. Like, you okay with not finding a husband? Okay, you just want to focus on your sister. You better take your ass down there and float around and twirl around. And Kate was like, you seem to be fine with it. Chow, Lady Dunbarry was like, excuse me, Hussey. Lady Dunbarry said, I have lived my life. Chow, I'm a widow. And you better hope that you can have a life like mine. At the rate you're going, you wish you, you ain't gonna have my type of life. And get your ass back downstairs. That's basically what she told her. And Kate showed up and was like, So, I believe the French, what is her name? The French dressmaker saw a pin down there, pretended to be an Irish lady. But she's like, I'm gonna keep this secret. You down here buying quills and ink and stuff. I ain't gonna tell nobody what you're doing. We all have our secrets, but you know, keep it classy. I feel so sorry for Pin. You know, y'all, my favorite character is actually, it would have to be Pin. I like her. I think she's absolutely adorable. So, yeah, that's what's going on. And, you know, the queen got her some zebras. Oh, oh, I forgot to say this. Clearly, Kate is in love with Tony Anthony Bridgerton, who basically, her sister was named the Diamond. And the Diamond is typically the most valued girl in the country or the city or whatever. And so the queen named the younger Sharma girl, the Diamond. And the brother, I think he has a thing, I think he's smitten with the younger sister, but he is in love with the older sister. So, is she be really interesting to see how this plays out, y'all? I think the younger sister is trying to hold it together for a child. I know one thing, that Duke was here. They are none of those men would have a chance. None of them would have a chance, baby. All right, y'all, that is it. I did my hell. What I'm going to do is, I need to really pay attention to these ends, make sure these ends are really, really put together. I see myself wearing a lot of twists smaller than this. And if I do do a twist out of some washing goes, which I don't want to do a lot of washing goes, because washing knows. So that is it, y'all, with my hair back like this. That is it, baby. All right, you guys, take care. Bye.
