Dear Friends:Is it just me or is it like totally the latest trend in fashion for white teenaged girls to create disturbingly racist youtube videos that instantly go viral? I guess tiny dogs; Prada thongs; spray on tans; and Jersey Shore are finally winding down and, "I Hate _____ (insert vile racial slur for Asians/African Americans/Hispanics here)" videos are all the rage?

Dear Friends:Well, it is all over the entertainment news. So I would be remiss if I didn't add my two cents. Be that as it may... I am disappointed to report that Rihanna has reconciled  with Chris Brown, professionally and personally (the latter is not official but who are we kidding?). Granted, the songs they've cut together are horrible (I hate 'Cake' anyway...but the remix is just all kinds

Dear Friends:There's just something about a post apocalyptic zombie take over that brings out the femme fatale in a gal (especially if she is 5'10 and gorgeous. Halter tops and eye make up never go out of style, even when it's the end of the world). For the record yours truly loves Zombie movies.

Dear Friends:This Saturday Night Live parody of Beyonce and Jay Z was hilarious. The reason being is because Maya Rudolph's impersonation of the Queen Bey was so spot on, right down to the voice (lol). Beyonce fan that I am this one was wonderful. Don't even get me started on Jay Z (perfect)! (lol) The only thing that peeved me is how SNL does not have enough African American talent to portray

Dear Friends:Of Whitney Houston's three major motion picture roles (The Bodyguard and The Preacher's Wife being two of those) Waiting To Exhale is my favorite, by far. Whitney, much like: Diana Ross, Janet Jackson, and Beyonce, is one of the few singers that translated magnificently to film. Truth be told Whitney was born to be on the big screen and it was never more apparent than in this movie.

Janet Mock and Clay Cane Dear Friends:I lifted this piece from "Maybe It's Just Me" (my favorite blog ever) featuring African American LGBT writers Janet Mock and Clay Cane.

Dear Friends:I found this video over on CNN.com. The subject of the video surrounds the never ending color complex that still haunts the African American community. I felt like this would be a good topic to discuss seeing as it is, after all, black history month.I loved this video because, for once, it was great to hear the opinion of a light skinned black woman and how the color complex effects

Dear Friends:I've said it 100 times and I'll say it again...I love Bill Maher. He has no fear of stepping on the toes of religious zealotry. I love his irreverent humor and stance on organized religion! (lol)In this video he posthumously unbaptizes Mitt Romney's Atheist grandfather. This is so hilarious!Cheers!Prince Toddy English.

Dear Friends:Apparently, marriages between Gay Chinese Men and heterosexual Women has reached critical mass in Bejing. The problem has gotten so out of control that an organization had to be started (please note my sarcasm. I love being facetious)...Read further!

Dear Friends:This year I am actually going to watch the super bowl (lol). Why? Madonna is performing of course! You know what? Say what you want about this bitch but she has put out some of the greatest most memorable pop songs of all time and I love her for it! Yeah I said it Madonna haters (lol). My hope and prayer is that she does a medley of "Open your heart," "Papa Don't Preach," "Vogue,"

Dear Friends:Words cannot express how much I adore and admire this woman, Tina Turner. Occasionally I love to sit down and watch her interviews (and performances) not only to marvel at her innate otherworldly skill as an entertainer but to also revel in her humanity. My copy of "I, Tina" is a mangled, highlighted, and dog eared mess primarily because I've read it, cover to cover, at least 100

Dear Friends:My husband Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is starring in a new fantasy/adventure flick entitled "Journey 2". Granted, I've never seen the first one but just because this hunk of masculine pulchritude is the star I've decided to catch a 3D matinee upon release! (lol) He is soooo FINE! Anyway, enjoy the trailer...especially the "Pec Pop of love!" Seriously, this looks like it could be a lot

Dear Friends:Apparently, Tony Cornelius spoke to his father, Don Cornelius, mere moments before the tragic event. Don was in a very bad way, according to Tony Cornelius. During the interview he did not seem too surprised.Anyway, this is a sad situation. I miss Don.Regards...Prince Toddy English.

Correction: Oh, for the record (error on my behalf) Ms. Debbie Goddard is the director of African Americans for Humanism! Dear Friends:The gauntlet has been lain. Prominent secular humanist activist Alix Jules has started a billboard ad campaign directly targeting African Americans. Read more about it...

Dear Friends:I happened upon this wonderful teaser for the independent film, "Middle of Nowhere". The trailer is quite ambiguous but you get a sense of what the movie is about. Anyway, it was well received at Sundance; and It is the sophomore effort of Ava DuVernay (director of I Will Follow, another must see). Anyway, this is a definite must see.

Dear Friends:While I am no huge fan of Dan Savage I support what he is doing with his new MTV series "It Gets Better". Check out this clip about a young lesbian letting her mother know that she had to accept her for who she is. I found this very emotional because me and my mom had these same conversations. The road to acceptance is hard but it is one worth traveling. With Love...Prince Toddy

Dear Friends:Don Cornelius' death has left me feeling some type of way. Whilst growing up it was taken on general principle that Don Cornelius would live forever, or die at age 397 (of natural causes of course). So learning that the arbiter of cool had committed suicide at the age of 75 was jarring. Whenever I hear about a celebrity that I've revered dying tragically I always take a moment (or

Dear Friends:It is February and you know what that means, right? It's African American History Month! I wanted to take this time out to: pause, ponder, and reflect upon the month because I feel compelled, as a young man of the African American persuasion, to always pay homage to my (our) history. Granted, I always revere my ancestors and stay abreast of the goings on in the black community;

Dear Friends:I've seen this little picture and quotation circulating around Facebook and simply had to post it here.  This is how I am choosing to lead my life every single day from now on.  I want to be in the habit of always believing that something wonderful is just around the bend. Because, when you think about it, inevitably, despite the circumstance, there always is something great on the

Dear Friends:Two months ago I wrote a lengthy post about my decision to halt my move to Northern California. In addition I detailed every single reason why it was prudent for me to stay in my home state. However, I am writing to tell you today that--as per my initial plans--I will be moving away to The Bay Area nevertheless. My previous message was inspired by my own fears and inadequacies

Dear Friends:The hometown girl is about to get her due in The Rocket City (Houston)! Apparently, two of her biggest supporters (aside from yours truly), Steve White and Marcus Mitchell, are diligently working towards having a Beyonce monument erected in our fair city. If all goes according to plan they are hoping to raise enough money to have this all done by September 4th (Bey's B-Day) 2012!

Dear Friends:I just discovered the new series "Downtown Los Angeles (aka DTLA)" over on Maybe It's Just Me and loved it. The show stars one of my favorite celebrities, Daryl Stephens, in an ensemble cast about a group of gay friends making it in Los Angeles, California. Before I watched the trailer I wanted to hate it. However, looking at the nuances and complexities of the characters I'm really

I think celibacy is just as normal as sex; however, I'd rather be having some sex with someone else besides myself on occasion.How do you feel about

If you don't know this woman for anything else you will know her for her timeless rendering of "At Last." Admittedly, I had my own issues with Ms. Etta after she came for Beyonce (for covering 'At Last' for the Obamas) but I attribute that outburst to her dementia and illness (Ms. James

Dear Friends:Regular blogging will resume...Tomorrow!I've been MIA due to the holiday season being exhausting and daunting. Once, it got to be SO much that I was thinking, "Will I ever have time to blog again?! Maybe I need to shut it down?" (lol). Thankfully, that little spell was short lived. Be that as it may...Nessa girl I got TEA about everything!First of all political season is back in full

Dear Friends:Recently, blogger friend Wonder Man wrote a great piece on Bilerico.com entitled, "Top 10 Lies The black Church Tells About Homosexuality." Great article. So good in fact that I wanted to piggyback on it, due to having been raised in the church (and suddenly being inspired by that message). My variation on the same theme will not be solely relegated to the black church, however.

Dear Friends:I found this cute little video called "Cute Gay Couple" featuring Pastor Dante and his partner Carlos (who gives major FACE and COIF). The video basically features a day in the life of an average gay couple. So if you are looking for Noah's Arc, Queer As Folk, The DL Chronicles, and et al you will not find it here. What you will see are two lovely souls who love each other! *tear* *

Dear Friends:These are set photos from Director Ridley Scott's upcoming prequel (so they say) to the Alien franchise, Prometheus. For the record yours truly will be following any and ALL news concerning this motion picture epic. One, it is based on Alien(s), one of my FAVORITE science fiction franchises (ever). Two, Ridley Scott is the director! Three, the hunkalicious Idris Elba is in it!Anyway,

Dear Friends:This is my annual year end entertainment wrap up. Without further adieu I present to you my TOP 13 movies of the year. I loved every last one of them! Thor Totally better than I expected! This movie had everything that I could ever want, need, and desire in a Hollywood blockbuster. Moreover, it actually had a good script and a lot of cheeky humor. That and I loved the epic splendor

Baby New Year! Dear Friends:Every year around this time I love to reflect and expound upon what the previous 365 days have meant to me. Doing this always gives me perspective. While one should never dwell in the past you can never know where you are going if you don't recognize where you have been.With that said 2011 has been one of my BEST years in a few. Granted, Christmas and my birthday

Dear Friends:I will keep this brief (as much as I can anyway). I am so infuriated right now. Please, don't write me any replies telling me, "Oh you have to love and accept your family anyway" and all of that nonsense. I need to vent. True, I can love my family but from now on I WILL be doing it from afar. I am sick and tired of trying to be apart of something that does not fit. This was EASILY

Dear Friends:Remember the scathing article that ran in "Psychology Today" a few months ago, the one about how "hideous" black women supposedly are? Well, apparently, it is open season on black womanhood yet again. In a recent article from Dutch fashion magazine "Jackie" the columnist, in big bold type, referred to Rihanna as "The Ultimate NiggerBitch." That was not a typo folks. A professional

Dear Friends:Instead of "Oh My God" I say, "By The Furies" or "All praises be to the mighty Furies." Why? Well, these are some bad ass Bitches. Check out: Stompah, Lashina, Gilotina, and Mad Harriet as they take on Wonder Woman AND Big Barda (after completely dismantling Treasure). I love this movie primarily because it has Superman, Wonder Woman, and The Furies (except Bernadeth)! Cheers!Prince

Dear Friends:It seems as though the most enduring evil Bitch is making yet ANOTHER triumphant return! The Evil Queen is back in a major way these days and yours truly could not be happier. This bitch is my FAVORITE character in all of fairy tale world. Honestly, would Snow White, in any of her incarnations, be worth the time had it not been for The Evil Queen, seriously? A bitch endures for a

Dear Friends:Now here is a new film project that yours truly can most definitely get behind. The name of the movie is "God's Atheist." Basically, the story is about a guy, who happens to be an Atheist, who dies and goes to Heaven (and arrives as a new Angel). That synopsis had me at hello Dolly!Here is a brief over view from the film's writer, Mario Horne...God’s Atheist was written by Mario

Dear Friends:When I heard that the original 1980's classic, Fright Night, had been rebooted I wanted to start vomiting blood; however, I've been hearing nothing but good things about the re-imagining. So I am definitely going to give it a look see once it is released on DVD. I am glad that they are going back to Vampires as pure evil and not emotionally conflicted romantic Heroes. Check out the

Dear Friends:The following documentary excerpt is entitled, "25 To Life". The story is about a young man who was diagnosed HIV positive at just 18 months old. How did his family cope with the revelation? They did not. They just gave him his medication and never revealed the diagnosis to a soul. They collectively utilized cognitive dissonance. The famous ACT UP quotation "Silence = Death" rings

Dear Friends:This is a new trailer from the Sundance Film Festival entitled "Fishing Without Nets". Basically, the story is about the Pirates from Somali that were hijacking ocean liners two years ago. Mind you I just KNEW that this would be all the rage in Hollywood. However, I guess since none of them resembled Captain Jack Sparrow they were not movie worthy. Be that as it may this looks like

Dear Friends:This is the trailer for Disney's "John Carter" starring Taylor Kitsch (he of Saturday Night Lights fame. A great show that hardly anyone watched). This looks very good, albeit quite Avatarish (one of my favorite movies). Apparently, he is on Mars as the token human amongst the warring indigenous population. Granted, this could be really terrible but from what I've seen I'm jazzed.

The movie, in and of itself, was vastly entertaining; however, given that it was a hunkorama as well (too much delicious man candy.
