Beyonce on Tyra

On Wednesday, Nov. 26th, Beyonce visited the Tyra show. If you missed it, you missed one great hour of television! There were so many moments in the show that touched me.

One of my favorite moments was when Tyra introduced a girl that had been diagnosed with MS. When she was first diagnosed she couldn't even walk. She had to start all over. Beyonce made this young lady's dream come true when she walked out on stage to meet her. See the video, it was so touching:




My favorite Tyra moments were the Jay-Z-Boy Chair and the secret. As a belated wedding gift, Tyra gave Beyonce a card board Jay-Z-Boy Chair. As the two ladies were about to break for commercial they each stood on one side of the card board Jay-Z and Beyonce playfully told Tyra not to sit too close to her man, it was so funny.

The secret, is still a secret. Tyra told Beyonce she was going to tell her a secret that she has been keeping quiet, and she did just that. She left the audience and us at home, wondering what she was whispering in Beyonce's ear. She never told us! What I got from it, is that Tyra is not single. She's not married, but she is seeing someone.

A visit from Beyonce wouldn't be right without a great performance and Beyonce did her thang performing "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies." Beyonce dropped tears as she sang "If I Were a Boy." It was an awesome ending to a very good show. I was left feeling like Beyonce is just one of the girls and I had been hanging out with her and Tyra for an hour.

You have to look it up on YouTube, it was sooooo good.

Also, Tyra will be featured in Ebony Magazine's December 2008 issue.

    Hello there!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I think that Tyra and Beyonce are very gorgeous ladies but they sound VERY uneducated....I don't mean the way they speak but the content of their thoughts.

    I don't know if either one of them ever graduated from high school or reads a book.

    It was an entertaining show though...the part I saw on YouTube.

    Truthfully, when I'm watching the Tyra show, I'm not looking for highly educated thoughts. I'm looking for something entertaining to watch.

    I think the show was supposed to be layed back and fun. Also one of Tyra's known quotes is, "A smart model is a good model," and I remember her being referred to as business savvy. She did go to High School, but instead of going to college she signed with a modeling agency and went to Paris. She has spent her life following her dreams. She's gone from model, to actress, to having her own shows. She could have gone from model, to drug addicted, but she didn't.

    I have no idea if Beyonce graduated from High School. She's been working her butt off since she came onto the scene and I don't see where she would have had the time, but I don't know and I really don't care. She's living the American Dream.

    How many white actresses, singers, etc. never graduated high school?
    Sean Connery
    Cher
    Hilary Swank (got GED)
    Jessica Simpson
    Lindsey Lohan
    Paris Hilton (got GED)
    Avril Lavighn
    Johnny Depp

    There are more, black & white.

    I agree with blow the trumpet
    I love to watch Beyonce perform
    but her diction is horrid and when she was on Oprah she was forever stumped when asked what her favorite book is. She says growing up she attended private school but it must have been for a couple of days. geesh She is 27 and when she's interviewed it's like speaking with my 10 year old niece.
    I was a little embarrassed for her.
    Natalie Portman, Carrie Underwood, Jodie Foster, Brooke Shields, Renee Zellweger and Alicia Keys was valedictorian and attended Columbia University although she left to pursue music.

    Thanks for commenting Kim!

    You know what? I've never seen her on Oprah, or any other interview. The Tyra show was the first Beyonce interview that I've ever sat down and watched. (I just like the Tyra show, it's a fun show).

    I don't really know if Beyonce sounds uneducated or not. You couldn't tell that from Tyra's interview. The show was for entertainment and there were mostly questions about her relationship, her favorite stuff, etc. Nothing real serious.

    So, I'm not so sure about Beyonce. I may have to Google that Oprah interview.

    As far as Tyra is concerned, I can't agree with that. I respect her as a business woman and I don't think she's stupid.

A Blog About Blogging -Someone Please Notice Me!

I've been spending some time joining social networks for Bloggers and checking out other blogs. One thing I've noticed is that a lot of people have a theme for their blog. The other thing that they have, that my blog doesn't have, is a header. I've seen so many pretty header images and catchy Blog titles. I'm wondering, "Is my blog missing something?" I chose not to use a header because I think it will clash with all the colors on my page and make everything look too busy. I chose not to stick to one theme because I have a million things to say and they come in a variety of different topics. I haven't been getting a lot of comments. So, I'm not sure if it has to do with the layout of my blog, or something else like that. I read somewhere online that for every 100 people that view your blog only 10 will comment. I can say that the social networks have paid off. Most of the comments that I received came from people who are members of those networks.

Selecting New Eyeglasses (It's Never a Bad Idea to Consider the Price)

I accidentally threw away my glasses one night, (that's so me, I had put them in a plastic bag with some snacks). That was over a year ago and I just recently took on the challenge of selecting and purchasing new eyeglasses . This is a challenge to me, because I always have a difficult time selecting the best glasses for my face shape and skin tone. Honestly, I hate the way I look in any glasses and if I didn't need prescription glasses in order to operate a vehicle, I would go without them. (I do not recommend that anyone else do that, and I'm sure my optometrist would scold me). In order to prevent myself from getting another ticket, I had to take on the task of finding some glasses that I would feel comfortable and confident in. This time around I did some online research on how to pick out the perfect glasses . I watched some videos, read some articles, figured out my face shape, and then forgot almost everything as soon as I walked into the optical shop and saw

Bratz Big Kidz Music Stars

I tried my hardest to catch these dollies on sale this year. I planned to buy four. One for each of the girls. But they were selling out like crazy. My daughters just love Brat dolls. I don't know why. They have big heads, they break much easier than Barbie and they seriously overdue it on make-up. I was happy when MGA came up with the Bratz Kidz Dolls. These dolls don't where as much make-up. What I liked most about these Big Kidz, is that they are NOT dressed in slutty clothes. Although Yasmin's outfit still shows a little tummy, it is much more appropriate than others I have seen on this brand of doll. So anyway, as I searched the net for the new Bratz Big Kidz Music Stars, I could not find Sasha anywhere. I found the Bratz Big Kidz Snap-On Doll Sasha (who's skirt is way too short), but I could not find the Music Stars doll. I checked everywhere I could think of, (in the US) and found nothing. However, while searching the net I found that many stores in the UK ha

Thursday Thoughts

I guess there comes a time when every mother has to come face to face with their teenager and let them know who's boss. Mother/daughter relationships can be difficult during these years. This Thursday's Thought: "Mother Nature is providential. She gives us twelve years to develop a love for our children before turning them into teenagers." ~William Galvin The reason behind the thought: My daughter crossed a line last night. This line crossing showed blatant disrespect and has changed our relationship forever. My daughter turned 13 in March. It's only been a few months and one of my worst fears has already come true. The fear that she would one day forget how much I love her and how much I've been here for her through the years. I've never had a teenager before and this is all new to me, but one thing I am not going to do is play friends with her and allow her to disrespect me.
