Cultured in Media

Tiny's daughter, rapper TI's stepdaughter, Zonnique Pullins was arrested at the airport for carrying a gun. According to a family member, Zonnique had changed bags and forgot that she was actually carrying the concealed weapon in the bag. I doubt they believed she would do any harm to any passengers on a plane, but in today's world, you never know.  The gun was legal and she had every right to carry it on her but not at an airport. People were so quick to judge her stating that she should not have been with a gun in the first place. The gun is licensed and she is sort of a celebrity. After the recent shooting of singer, Christina Grimmie, last week, it is the worst scenario for someone to have to be in. Zonnique doesn't always have security with her and as a young girl, I don't see anything wrong with it. It was to be used for protection only.  She was released shortly after she was arrested and charged with the weapon.

After last week's tragedy in Orlando, Florida with the shooting at a gay club, can you believe there is still hate against the LGBT community in Florida? I mean it is one thing to disagree with a lifestyle someone lives but to actually hate someone because of something that has nothing to do with you, AND bring God into your theatrics is disgusting. Just my personal opinion. Westboro Baptist Church says they will protest the funerals of the victims shot during the attack at Pulse Nightclub. They said the shooter "was sent from God." Sick. That's a life you are talking about. The police are aware the church will protest at the funerals and really can't do anything about it due to the Freedom of Speech act. Just when you think this world cannot get any worse than what it already is, life just shows you that there is no end to how deep it can really get. Even if you look at their website, it is filled with pure hate. The website name alone hints that (godhatesf...

Cute, seems easy enough to do, and very beautiful results, yup sign me up. I love anything that is effortless to do. For this style, all you need is wrapping lotion, some perm rollers, and some time.

Love & Hip Hop's, Yandy Smith-Harris, is known for being a boss and about her money. But I also would like to acknowledge the fact that she is a natural hair chick that I have a hair crush on for the moment. She says protective style is what keeps her hair in top shape. By protective style, she is talking about keeping her hair hidden by wearing weaves (extensions), braids, and wigs. I must say, they have kept her natural hair looking healthy and long. View next post for this twist out.

I know a lot of women who breastfed their children and I personally have no issue with it. My question is...do you think women should breastfeed in public or pump prior to going out into the world? Breastfeeding is the most natural action in the world for a woman, next to getting her "you know what." But is doing it in spaces where everyone can see this act of nature a little to much for some to stomach? I most likely will breastfeed but I honestly cannot see myself doing it in public. Not for any reason in particular, just my preference. If you feel comfortable breastfeeding in the middle of the grocery store, then by all means, pop it out. I prefer to pump first before leaving out of my home so I do not have to worry about the pervs that are out there. What inspired this post was an Instagram post I saw. How do you feel about the below images?

What is worse than being on vacation and suddenly, one of your children is grabbed by an alligator and pulled underneath the water? Nothing for the parents of two-year-old, Lane Graves. I can not imagine the pain and grief they are enduring during this time and will be enduring probably forever. The incident happened at a Disney Resort in Florida. Now officials are investigating the safety at the infamous Disney World Beaches. Therefore as of Tuesday night, all nine of the resorts beaches have been closed. According to CNN, The boy's family was at a movie night outdoors at the Grand Floridian resort when around 9 p.m. the boy waded into about a foot of water in a lagoon, authorities have said. Witnesses, including the boy's horrified parents, tried to save him. His father jumped in and tried to pry the gator's mouth open. His mother jumped in, too. But it was too late. The child was dragged underwater in the Seven Seas Lagoon, witnesses told authorities. The lagoon ...

Just like Kim to make the night end in talk about her showing off something on her, rather it be her butt, her boobs, her waist, or in this case, a slip of the nip. Goodnight Kim K.

Lauren Keyana  " Keke "  Palmer's new look. Yay or nah? This young lady is definitely making a statement with her recent antics, that statement being "I'm not a kid anymore." Social media has been very vocal about KeKe's over-sexualized self but now they are saying she looks "crack-headish." All because of her wearing no make-up and rocking a protective style.  Do you agree she looks "sickly" or just like a regular girl? Personally, I think it's the hairstyle because normally when she goes make-upless, she looks perfectly fine but in this case, =/ Just in case you want that old Keke back, here are a few shots.

It's very unfortunate that this tragedy had to happen for people to see that #gaylivesmatter. Just a few years ago, people were banning gay marriages, then a few weeks ago, the big debate over the use of public bathrooms being used by both genders, and we can't forge the disgust a lot had for Bruce Jenner, now all of a sudden, a tragedy occurs and everyone is on a band wagon once again. No offense to any one in particular, but this whole epidemic is beginning to be too much. My heart goes out to the victims of the shooting as well as their family. No one deserves to be gunned down in the manner they were for simply enjoying a night out. I love analyzing individuals based off of behavior. So I put together a quick facts checklist to understand why this happened? There is no valid reasoning behind the attack that left 49 dead and over 50 injured during the Orlando Nightclub Shooting that happened on Saturday night. But it had to be "something" behind the madness to ac...

America's favorite hated family, The Kardashian's, seems to always to be in the spotlight. Normally it is Kim, Khloe or Kylie making the news with their shenanigans but this time the outrage is for Kourtney Kardashian, the oldest of the clan. I know a lot of people hate this family but I love them. I love the Kardashian's and have been watching their show since it started. Some people look for anything to complain about, and usually I will go out to say "oh stop hating" but this time, it does seem as if they have a reason too this time. As much as I have love for Kourtney, she does seem to be a little bit too thin. Maybe that is the way she wants to be, and yes it is her own boy so she can choose what she wants it to look like but to me, and almost everyone else, she has gotten waaaay to slim. I have to give credit, she is a mother of three and her body bounces back after babies like a boomerang. She always had a slim body but maybe she went too far. Kourtne...

Here are a few benefits to water. These are the reasons why I am trying to up my intake. Healthy life.

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:
