Rev. Al Sharpton’s Daughters Dominique and Ashley Sharpton Debut New FOX SOUL Show ‘The Sharpton Sisters’

Hello World,

It’s not easy being a PK (Preacher’s/Pastor’s Kid). And it must be even harder when your parent is also famous! That’s why I had to stop scrolling when I recently saw this post on Rev. Al Sharpton’s Facebook page…

The first episode aired last week and is below…

According to Bossip.com, “The Sharpton Sisters, ” a half-hour talk show, will air every Wednesday at 9:00PM (ET) / 6:00PM (PT) exclusively on FOX SOUL. The Sharpton sisters interview Rev. Al on the first episode, but in future episodes children of other celebrities will be featured such as Etienne and Ivy Maurice, children of Sheryl Lee Ralph; Ilyasah Shabazz, daughter of Malcolm X; Riley Burruss, daughter of Kandi Burruss and more…

FOX SOUL is a new LIVE and interactive streaming network dedicated to the African American viewer. The programs aim to celebrate Black culture and deal with real topics that impact the everyday lives of the Black community through frank and insightful dialogue with local and national influencers.

I hope they have success with their new show, particularly as I’m a PK  and I love the shows on FOX SOUL!

Georgia Pastor Shot By Atheist Cousin After Discussing Heaven & Hell at Family Funeral, Chooses to Forgive Him…

Hello World,

It’s just not smart to fuss at a family funeral. Emotions are all over the place and folk are on edge.  Pastor Jimmy McGauley, 46, learned that the hard way at a family funeral…See an excerpt of the recent WSB-TV story below…

A Georgia pastor spoke out about being shot by his cousin after a funeral his family arranged took place several weeks ago in Jacksonville.

According to an arrest report our sister station, Action News Jax, obtained from JSO, it states that a religious conversation was being held between McGauley and his cousin, Keshawn Nesmith, regarding “heaven and hell.” Read the rest HERE…

However, Pastor McGauley has chosen to forgive his cousin…A funeral is an opportune time to discuss heaven and hell, but as soon as I felt a little heat, I would have shut the conversation down…I aine tryin’ to be shot although spreading the gospel can be dangerous…

What would you do?

Basie Skanks from OWN’s ‘Greenleaf’ aka Jason Dirden & Disney’s Princess Tiana aka Anika Noni Rose Just Got MARRIED!

Hello World,

Y’all already know I love love! Who knew that Jason Dirden (one of our faves Basie Skanks from OWN’s Greenleaf) and Anika Noni Rose (Disney’s Princess Tiana) were even dating  and now they have a whole wedding spread in BRIDES magazine! Apparently, they got married back in October AND Deborah Joy Winans (Charity Greenleaf from OWN’s Greenleaf) was one of the bridesmaids! Additionally, Anika Noni Rose is 50 years old so her story is yet another story that proves you’re never too old to fall in love and get married! Check out all of the glorious wedding pics and read about their love story below…

If there’s one thing actress and vocalist Anika Noni Rose knows well, it’s the importance of timing. Whether it’s hitting her marks on stage, holding tempo in a song, perfectly delivering a line in her latest show Let the Right One In, or falling in love, timing matters. Anika first met fellow actor Jason Dirden in 2014 when both were cast in the Broadway production of A Raisin in the Sun. “We were friends for a couple of years, actually,” Anika says, but the timing just wasn’t right. “We both went off and did our own things and were disconnected for a while and then swung back.” A few years later, they had the timing down pat. “It was the right moment for both of us to be open and available for the possibility of what we have now,” Jason explains.

May their union be blessed…
