The Obamas Official Portrait Unveiling for The National Portrait Gallery
The Obamas Official Portrait Unveiling was a black history month moment that none are soon to forget. Masses of onlookers turned out to see the stunning creations of artists, Amy Sherald and Kehinde Wiley. Both artists were personally hand-picked by Barack and Michelle Obama in order to capture their likeness. The resulting paintings were unveiled during a ceremony held at the Smithsonian.
Obamas Official Portrait Unveiling for The National Portrait Gallery
The Obamas both shared touching expressions in regards to not only their works of art; but also, the historic legacy behind them. Here is a snippet of what they said:
“As a young girl, even in my wildest dreams, I never could have imagined this moment. Nobody in my family has ever had a portrait. There are no portraits of the Robinsons or the Shields from the South Side of Chicago.
This is all a little bit overwhelming, especially when I thing about all of the young people who will visit the National Portrait Gallery and see this. Including so many young girls and young girls of color who don’t often see their images displayed in beautiful and iconic ways.
I am so proud to help make that kind of history. But the fact is that none of this would be possible without the extraordinary artist; and woman behind this portrait, Amy Sherald. Thanks you Amy. It was a joy to work with you and get to know you.”
-Former First Lady Michelle Obama
“Amy, I want to thank you for so spectacularly capturing the grace; and intelligence, and charm; and hotness, of the woman that I love.”
-Former President Barack Obama
Obamas Official Portrait – The Artists Speak Out
Nevertheless, what about the artists themselves? Both had the honor and privilege of getting to know the Former President and First Lady in order to get inspired when painting their masterpieces. Regarding being able to work on such pieces for The Obamas the artists revealed:
“The ability to be the first African – American painter to paint the first African-American president of the United States is absolutely overwhelming.”
-Kehinde Wiley
“Big thank you to Flotus stylist Meredith Koop for helping with the styling and sourcing of this gorgeous dress for the portrait! It was an honor to work with you!!!!”
Amy Sherald
Wish to see both of these stunning and lovely portraits in person? They are only a trip away, so make plans to travel to Washington, D.C. Barack as well as Michelle’s will hang at the Smithsonian Institute; inside The National Portrait Gallery. Viewing of portraits to the public will begin on Tuesday, February 20th 2018.

She may already have a new film coming to a theater near you, however, that is not slowing Zendaya Coleman down one bit! The actress/singer is beginning work on a brand new project entitled, A White Lie, that will tell the tale of the first black woman to graduate from a top private college. Furthermore, A White Lie, will not just star the budding superstar, but Zendaya is also set to produce the flick as well. Ugh… Girl crush goals unlocked!
Zendaya To Star and Produce A White Lie- 1st Black Woman to Graduate From Vassar
The premise of A White Lie is the story of a young woman by the name of Anita Hemmings, who was able to beat the odds and attain the goal of higher learning. The catch? Hemmings came from a line of slaves and wished to attend Vassar during the 1890s. The only way for Anita to achieve this feat during this particular time period was if she could pass as a white woman.
Does she succeed? Sorry loves no spoilers here because the story is just too good. You will just have to see the film! Okay… honestly, if you don’t want to know yet, stop reading after the next paragraph. If you are a free movie spirit press on!
This upcoming movie on Anita Hemmings is based on the book, The Gilded Years, by Karin Tanabe. Zendaya is producing A White Lie along with actress Reese Witherspoon and company, Hello Sunshine. The script will be written by writer, Monica Beletsky.
A White Lie – Reese With the Deets
Witherspoon recently took to social media to talk about the new film. She says,
“Every day with these women is even more inspiring than the last! Can’t wait to share our new project, A White Lie, with you very soon. Zendaya will produce and star as the first African-American woman to graduate from Vassar. Monica Beletsky will write the script and Hello Sunshine will produce. What a team and what a story.”
As you wait for this captivating true story to come to life you can still catch Miss Daya on the big screen. She stars opposite Zac Efron as trapeze artist, Anne Wheeler, in the “The Greatest Showman.”

Beyonce Headlining Coachella 2018- And Why You Won’t Get a Ticket
Ouch! After reading that headline you may be in need of a little ointment due to that burn. However, we are also sure that you can appreciate the honesty. Yes, it’s true about Beyonce Headlining Coachella 2018, but getting a ticket will be rougher than The Hunger Games. May the odds be forever in your favor!
Beyonce Headlining Coachella 2018 – And Why You Won’t Get a Ticket
There are two glaring reasons why getting to see Beyonce Headlining Coachella 2018 will be next to impossible. For one, it is a high profile show that everyone and their mama are going to want to attend. That means celebs, their friends, industry, posers, world’s biggest hive as well as music enthusiasts that you will have to compete against. Moreover, Beyonce fans are still trying to scratch that musical itch after Bey had to cancel her headliner performance at this year’s Coachella.
Bey’s absence for 2017’s Coachella music festival was very valid. Her and Jay are extending their family thus making their cutie daughter, Blue Ivy, a big sis to twin siblings. Although, Beyonce had showed great gusto performing while preggers at the Grammys. It was ultimately decided that she would cancel her Coachella performance for her and her babies’ health.
Nevertheless, the cancellation did not mean an end to the whole Beyonce and Coachella situation. For awhile, rumors swirled around that Bey was told she could perform in 2018 if she wanted. Well, it looks like there was some truth to all that tea because Beyonce is performing and tickets are going on sale baby!
Beyonce Headlining Coachella 2018
You see…that’s the other problem. Pre-sale tickets go on sale today at 11 a.m. Pacific time. So if you’re reading this… it’s too late (LOL sorry we couldn’t resist). Yet, really though if money is tight, payday is next week or you didn’t have enough time to beg the parentals to give you the gift that truly matters. Then you may not be getting into the biggest BeyHive party in the desert.
Nevertheless, you didn’t think we going to be all doom and gloom right? The Coachella advance sale means its payment plan time! If you purchase tickets now you can slowly pay for your Coachella experience over the course of the year.
The official festival payment plan consists of 7 total payments. You pay an initial payment and over the course of six months you pay off the final six. So basically you have from June (this month) till December to get things squared with Coachella. Make sense?
However, if you do choose to go the payment plan route be sure to make each payment on time. If you fail to do so your order will be cancelled and you will be charged a $50 fee. Yikes.
The payment plan is only offered during presale. So if you want in we suggest you act fast. Happy planning Beyonce and music fest lovers!

Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes
You know that feeling you get when you post some heat on the Gram and those notifications are sprinkling in from your followers like they’re Salt Bae? Well, Beyonce is getting love on that level and then some. The Grammy award winning singer and style icon will now add yet another accomplishment to her stellar career. One that has never ever happen before in the history of Instagram. Don’t ever underestimate the BeyHive ladies and gents. The fans, friends and family have spoken… Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes!
Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes
While the rest of us mere mortals pop our collars over 100 likes, Bey over here getting literally 100,000 times that! The frenzy all began when Beyonce quietly announced to the world that not only was she preg but she was also expecting twins. She did so by taking to SM and posting a delicate photograph of herself caressing her bump.
The result was Bey-pandemonium! The news spread faster than a speeding bullet. In seconds every social platform was consumed with the Beyonce announcement. Nevertheless, are we really that surprised? Uh, of course not! They call her queen for a very good reason.
The Bey Pic That Started It All
Moreover, that very day Bey released the pregnancy photo it collected over 6 million likes beating out Selena Gomez’s Coca Cola pic which had held the record for most likes. Gomez currently still holds the number one slot for most followers on the Gram. Therefore, it’s safe to say both ladies are killing the social game.
Beyonce Pregnancy Instagram Photo Hits 10 Million Likes -Go Girl!
Nevertheless, 10 million likes is nothing to shrug off. Plenty of brands and celebs would love to command that type of engagement. In this era of tech everything has changed. For instance, the music industry has had to revamp and rethink how to count or view record sales. It’s not about just pure sales anymore, now streams are just as important.
Moreover, with social media now we base stardom on who achieves and garnishes the most numbers. It’s not about having the complete package just the right aesthetic or following. So then, it’s nice to see someone from the ‘old school’ and pre-Insta era that is still being a boss.
We also got a kick out of all the sisterhood shown this past week. Many celebrities reposted Bey’s pic or left a sweet congratulatory comment. Fellow fashion icon, Rihanna, wished Beyonce and her big bro Jay Z the best with their growing family. Which shows there’s no beef and if there is, it can always be worked through. Let’s continue to support each other, congratulate each other and just be plain happy for one another.
Its a beautiful thing and doesn’t cost a penny. Major congrats again to Bey and Jay. Also, to her hive for demonstrating some more of that black girl magic and racking up ten million likes! Do not see anyone breaking that record any time soon.

What is in the water?! First, Pharrell Williams TKO’d us this week with the announcement that him and his gorgeous wife gave birth to triplets. It was such a surprise and proof that there are still celebrities out there that are good at keeping secrets and their private life…well, private. Nevertheless, congratulations to you Pharrell as well as the wild success of your film Hidden Figures. However, it looks like a fellow musician is about to join the baby train. Music icon Beyonce Reveals She’s Having Twins!
Beyonce Reveals She’s Having Twins!
We can’t stop throwing confetti! We are so happy for Bey and Jay as well as their soon-to-be arrivals. Furthermore, it is always joyous in general to hear about the news of a baby. However, the excitement is doubled because Bey is having not one but two! How did Beyonce break the big news?
The queen let her fans be the first the know by taking to the Gram. She posted a beautiful photo of herself gently holding her cute growing belly. She added this caption,
“We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two and we thank you for your well wishes.” -The Carters
How wonderful! Moreover, it looks like cutie pie Blue Ivy is going to have a couple new playmates in the near future. We’ve been racking our brains on what the baby names shall be, but guess we will have to wait and see.
