AROUND THE WORLD WEDNESDAYS: TEMNE TRIBE


Sierra Leone, a beautiful country situated on the West Coast of Africa. With sixteen different ethnic groups, this country is truly beautiful in itself, despite what the media shows. This focus will be on the Temne Ethnic group of Sierra Leone. 
Browsing the web for research purposes, I saw how gorgeous the people there are. I'm talking about the clearest, most bright skin that I have ever saw in a group of people. I was also amazed at how similar the hairstyles are to the kind in the U.S and other industrialized places. Like, I didn't even know they had wigs and things of that sort in a tribe. Take notes of how small their braids are, wow. I guess braiding is universal, even in places like this. Beautiful. Take note that the "swag" is similar to ours here in North America, lol. 

What I found out is that one of my favorite news anchors, Iesha Sesay, from CNN is part of the Temne Tribe

Enjoy the pictures. I love seeing the beauty in other cultures.

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY: FLY TATTED SKY

Do you watch Black Ink NY? If so, did you notice how Sky's confidence level went to over "a hunnit" after she got the plastic surgery she has been dyin gto get. I mean she always had an outgoing personality, but now "it's all the way up." Congrats to Sky and that new body. What I love is that she didn't go too overboard like most people with injections/implants. Before : After:

BOW WOW CHALLENGE: FUNNIEST MEMES

Once again, rapper/actor Shad Moss (Bow Wow/ Lil Bow wow) was caught "insta-lying" again, which created a challenge called "#BowWowChallenge" by social media. It all started with Bow Wow posting a picture about him catching a flight to NYC. The picture he posted was of a private jet and a fancy car outside of it, pretty much indicating that he was about to hop on it. It all went down hill when a fan of his happened to be following Bow Wow's post on IG and saw he posted he was on a private jet (though he didn't state it directly). Once the coach passenger noticed Bow Wow was lying, he took a picture and uploaded to social media, which then prompted a mass influx of people searching the internet to find where Bow Wow had stolen the picture from. Ultimately, they found it and started calling Bow Wow out on his lies. Even rapper, 50 Cent took part in the challenge. LOL

GEORGE AND AMAL CLOONEY WELCOME TWINS INTO THE WORLD

George Clooney (56), and wife, Amal Clooney (39) are happy to welcome twins, Ella and Alexander Clooney. How cute is that. Being that this is Amal's first time as a mother, she has a boy and a girl at the same time. I can only imagine how cute the babies are. George and Amal have been married since 2014.
