Blondie’s Spotlight

Reds
contributed by Kimberly Gilkes R&B Singer/ Songwriter/Model/Dancer Songbyrd Chellz On a sunny day in April I had the pleasure of sitting with singer Songbyrd Chellz. This lady is full of energy and talent! She has her own unique style when it comes to singing and clothing. Despite the fact that guys could not stop looking and even interrupting the interview I was able to dig into her mind so that readers can become well acquainted with her. She believes in following her dreams saying “It’s not a lot of people who can say I’ve lived out my dreams, and I will be one of those select few!” Blondie’s Lipstick Who or what has influenced you as an artist? Songbyrd Chellz I’m influenced by plenty of people, not just famous people;…

Blondie’s Spotlight

Reds
contributed by  Ms. Vanie Atlanta’s own sexy model, designer, and hair stylist Corine Black sits with Ms. Vanie for an exclusive interview. She tells about her occurrence with Roscoe Dash and celebrity hair stylist Naomi Russell, and gives advice to young women wanting to branch into the entertainment industry. Vanie Okay Corine tell me how you got into the whole modeling thing? And what inspired you to model? Corine I started modeling originally when I was like eight for an agency; I did back to school wear a couple of times. It was pretty cool, I wasn’t too enthused about it, but my mother was a model so she kind of pushed me to get out there and do it. Vanie Okay so your mother was a model. So what…

His Perfection

Pinks
contributed by Nique She is the epitome of what perfection would be if it existed…. I dream about the curves of her body and the arch of her back And wonder if I will ever be good enough to deserve to be in her presence I have memorized the smoothness of her forehead to the slope of her nose Every freckle on her face and the shape of her lips I can detail the elongation of her neck and I fantasize about the taste of her collarbone…. ….It’s the sweetest thing… My fingertips tingle from the memory of what her breasts feel like in my hands and the smooth expanse of her stomach and I am lost Lost in her…. My entire being is drawn to the space in-between her…

Repentance Is Not Just For Sinners

Pinks
contributed by Kaydee by David Wilkerson [May 19, 1931 - April 27, 2011] The longer I walk with Jesus, the more I am convinced that repentance is not just for sinners, but also for believers. It is not simply a one-time thing, but something God's people are called to do until Jesus returns. Every Christian who maintains a repentant attitude brings upon his life God's special attention. Indeed, repentance opens up something to us that nothing else can. If we walk before the Lord with a repentant heart, we will be inundated with incredible blessings! A repentant heart is soft, tender and pliable, is and easily molded by the Holy Spirit. It responds to and acts upon godly reproof. The number-one characteristic of a repentant heart is a readiness to…

Skin Care: Cheap vs Expensive

Neutrals
contributed by Emmie Rose I recently wrote a piece on whether more expensive perfumes were actually better value than cheaper ones, and now I’m going to do the same but with skincare creams! I personally have a mixture of both expensive and cheap, so I want to see if I actually need both or whether I can save some money and hopefully help you out too! WAG Coleen Rooney and American beauty Christina Aguilera are among just a few stars that have brought out body butters in the same scent as their best-selling perfumes (surprise surprise). I own both and while they're purse pleasing and smell superb, they don't actually do anything! Despite claiming to even out my skin tone, banish my blemishes and restore my skin from dryness, they…

Blondie’s Spotlight

Reds
interviewed by Kaydee The Giving & GrOwing Youth and Community Outreach Organization is an upcoming powerful force within the community. It gave me great pleasure to interview two young adults who strive to impact the community and youth in such an influential way. It’s rare today that you find young individuals who want to simply do more for the community just because. The organization includes volunteers who are high school dropouts, those who have been to jail, and college graduates. The organization goes to the Downtown Atlanta area to give to the homeless, taking donations, and changing lives. Name: Rey Rosado (Age 22) and Melva Lett (Age 23) Representing: Lithonia, GA Blondie’s Lipstick: What does Giving N Growing exactly mean pertaining to your organization?  Rey Rosado: We just want to…

Mixed Emotions

Pinks
contributed by Nique Our time is perfect together Everything is “we”, “our”, future plans, meshed goals And then reality steps in and I can’t help but to question if you’re really mine We’re always in our own world Never forgetting our boundaries but sometimes getting lost in ourselves And I’m happy…. More happy than I can ever remember being I’m content and I’m at peace And then “it” happens again and I feel alone in a world that felt so full only seconds ago We talk about love We talk about life We talk about downfalls and triumphs And then I let my mind slip into a space where we can truly co-exist as equals Where we are partners beyond partnership And companions one breath away from being one person…

No One Likes A Bragger

Pinks
contributed by Sammie Jo We all know that person. The person who stumbles upon some magnificent fortune that the rest of us haven’t been able to attain and then proceeds to let everyone else know how lucky he or she is. This “fortune” doesn’t have to come in the form of cold, hard cash. It can be anything from a new car, to a new house, to a new job, to an engagement. I mean, sure, we all get excited when something wonderful happens to us. If you don’t, you’re weird! I was incredibly happy when I got my first big-girl job and I posted an update about it on Facebook and I called everyone who cares about me and I let them know. Done. But then there are those people who…

Listening To the Lyrics

Pinks
contributed by Kaydee   Lately I’ve been having the feeling that every gospel song I hear is speaking directly to me! The lyrics just seem so real and deep to me. The repetition of the words and of course the music draws me in and closer to God. I’m starting to see the meaning so much clearer. Praise and worship are a huge part of life and I feel like I should incorporate them a lot more into my life.   “Now will your heart and soul say yes?”  -Shekinah Glory   One song in particular is “Yes”, which is sung by Shekinah Glory. I remember the first time I heard this song at a church [Joy of Faith Christian Ministries, Pastor Dr. Samuel N. Smith] and I just remember…
