Count Down to Valentine's Day: 21 days
Not that Valentine's Day is extremely important, it's kind of overrated. But who doesn't want a gift on Love day. Guy or Gal, there is never a time where you don't want to feel special and appreciated. Whether you treat yourself or love to be treated by others, Valentine's Day is the perfect day. To all of my pessimist of love out there, loving you is what matters. This day is really another day for retailers to cash in.

Brandy Involved in Fatal Car Accident
Nightmare Accident on the 405
On December 30, 2006 singer Brandy was involved in a car accident in Los Angeles, CA. Brandy struck a 2005 Toyota. The Toyota then hit a 1989 Toyota. The 2005 Toyota then slid sideways and hit the center divider. As the 2005 Toyota came to a halt, it was struck by a 1988 Acura. The driver of the 2005 Toyota, Awatef Aboudihaj, was taken to Holy Cross Hospital in critical condition and she died the next day. Aboudihaj, a 38-year-old married mother of one, was a Los Angeles resident. It is also reported that at the scene of the accident, Brandy hysterically repeated that the accident was all her fault.
In a statement to TMZ from Brandy's publicist, Courtney Barnes, the singer confirmed her involvement in a fatal crash: "Brandy was involved in a car accident December 30, 2006 in Los Angeles where there was a fatality. She wishes to publicly express her condolences to the family of the deceased. Brandy asks that you respect the privacy of everyone involved at this time."
Brandy was not arrested, injured, nor was there any alcohol or drugs involved. full story
With this going on and her baby brother Ray J doing the most with Whitney, I know Brandy is extremely stressed out. My heart goes out to her.

Rumor Mill: Monica might be getting dropped from J Records
Monica, who hit the scene in 1995, started off her career like a rocket - with each of her first two albums going triple platinum. But since then, her career seems to have petered out. Her third album struggled to make gold, and her latest album has sold barely 200,000 copies.
Monica's unlikely to be surprised by J Records' decision. Last month, in a last ditch effort to salvage her career, the Atlanta singer implored her fans to sign a petition supporting her latest album. Unfortunately for Monica, the petition garnered fewer than 1,000 signatures.

Dreamgirls leads nominations for Oscars but gets snubbed
Congrats to the Dreamgirls crew. The hit film version of the musical Dreamgirls received a major snub in the 79th annual Academy Awards nominations, failing to get nods for either Best Picture or Best Director for Bill Condon. On the plus side, the film did receive a total of eight nominations -- the most of any film.
Dreamgirls' nominees include Eddie Murphy for Best Supporting Actor for his role as James "Thunder" Early, Jennifer Hudson for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Effie White, and Sharen Davis for Best Costume Design
Congrats to Jennifer Hudson for her Oscar nomination. How dynamic is it for a first time actress to get an Oscar nod for her very first role. Outstanding!

Will ABC let go of Isaiah Washington?
That's the question that is looming in all of TV land's minds. Today in the New York Times, an executive has apparently stated that "Mr. Washington’s behavior could be considered grounds for dismissal under Disney’s corporate anti-discrimination policy." ABC has not made any hasty decisions on the firing of Isaiah, but there are many upset executives who feel that something has to be done. He has fired his publicist and rehired another for damage control. As of Monday morning more than 17,000 people have signed a petition to replace him.
All respects to Isaiah, but he should know how to play this publicity game. Now he has to play like he has a homophobic problem and attend unwanted GLAD meetings. When in actuality he just said something he shouldn't have. Last year was the year of using unacceptable racial slurs, and Isaiah has continued with the trend for this year. I deeply feel his regret for his actions. Who knows what really happened behind the scenes? Who really knows why he said it? But I feel there is more to the story, and the media is using this opportunity to prove how to really make or break a career. Think about how you felt when you heard about Micheal Richards antics? Is it comparable to Richards?
And another question, did T.R. Knight have to get all emotional and uneasy on the Ellen Show? If he felt that damn insulted, why didn't he speak up for himself when it happened. Was it necessary for him to open up healing wounds when Isaiah already apologized?
Let me know what you think! Click for the link to the article in the New York Times

SPORTS: NFL History, Two African American coaches Face off at Super Bowl XLI
The Indianapolis Colts set history by winning the AFC conference and finally making it to the Super Bowl along with Lovie Smith, the head coach of the Bears. Congratulations to the Colts and the Bears.
The Colts are my all time favorite NFL team. I am so excited for Payton Manning and Tony Dungy. It's been a long road traveled with Dungy and the Colts, many upsets along with a family tragedy. Maybe he can finally take his team to the top and win a Super Bowl.
Along with Tony Dungy, Lovie Smith will go down in history as one of the first African American NFL coaches to play in the Super Bowl. Good Luck to both teams. Super Bowl XLI will be one of the most anticipated Super Bowl games in history. Stay tuned, the game will be in Miami on Feb. 4
