1 bilion people in the world don’t have access to clean drinking water. Yet we are made up of 63% H2O as people. I think true celebrity is about whose moving water flows in the world. It’s as simple as something like that.
Nicole Richie is one of the brightest stars that does all year round. She’s our girl. Click on pic to learn more about what we can do through initiatives like Global Water.
To make clean water flow in dry places where it needs to be the most, let’s do it. Thanks. Love you all.

Russell Simmons Wrote these Words for Alicia Keys Creative Projet Recently. Words worthy of Reflecting on again today:
Ladies and gentlemen, we gather here today, because we have “lost” an angel. An angel who has blessed us with the gospels of truth ever since we first heard the ivory keys and the metal chords strike notes of compassion and empowerment. An angel who carried her message to lands far and wide, but whose wings always touched the ground. We are gathered to pay our last respects to this gentle angel who has inspired us with her unwavering generosity and her valiant sacrifice. But, before I continue eulogizing this precious angel, I am here today to stop this funeral. To stop this angel’s wings from being clipped. Because angels don’t die.

Update: Egypt Daoud Dean is the name of Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz baby boy, reports E! Online via Keys’ rep.
Cute name. Daoud is arabic for David – as this couple send a message of peace to the world, about acceptance of difference between Jewish and Arab communities – with this baby’s unique name. Of course, Egypt is the largest Muslim populated nation in the world – so definitely a message being sent to the Muslim world, in this little messanger’s life.
And, for a good book that sums up, Keys’ and Beat’s son’s name. Click on this rose, to read a novel (“Courage to Love” by author Robert Ellis) that’s all about this exact same theme of Peace when a teenager and a soldier, one an American-Jew the other an Arab teenager, unexpectedly fall for eachother in love.
This novel is set in Israel and the Gaza Strip. There’s not one camel in it, but it’s definitely a profound Mid-East love story of tolerance being the starting point of genuine love.

UK Brits can do black too. Love it from Twilight Star, Robert Pattinson today, this week Pattinson has referred himself to a Beatle and now Jay-Z the king of hip hop. And Lady Gaga thinks that she’s a fame monster. He’s too much. Here’s what Pattinson says:
“When I was 14, I fronted a rap trio.”
On his trademark look: “I’ve never really had a specific look in mind. It is what it is. It’s so funny, a friend of mine from London came over and said, ‘Why is everyone going on about your hair all the time?’ Everyone has hair like that in London.”
Alecia Keys are Jay-Z gave a stunning performance at The American Music Awards, but it was the late Michael Jackson and Taylor Swiftwho were the two big winners for 2009.
Here’s the full list of AMA winners tonight. (more…)
Being a working mom who is one of the few A-List black, actresses in Hollywood, Halle Berry turned out her brand of charm and sexy perfection on the red carpet of the Keep A Child Alive 6th Annual Black Ball.
The organization helps 13 million orphans in Africa who have lost their parents to the AIDS virus. You can make a difference by going here to donate. Along with the beautiful Halle Berry, singer, Alecia Keys is also a patron of the org.
Thanks Halle Berry. Hollywood’s sexiest black A-List star, just keeps getting better with age. Amazing!
The Ten Top MTV VMA Awards moments of 2009 that stood out, were:
1. Michael Jackson’s footage of the King of Pop performing his greatest hits, was a level of performance, that perhaps only Beyonce is matching at this level, singing live and storytelling through constant, rigorous dance choreography. The posthumous footage of Jackson’s music videos and MJ live in concert, stole the show.
2 TIE A: Madonna’s speech for the King of Pop, showed class. The woman who has had the most successful tour ever in the history of music or a solo act this year and in a global recession; and who has amassed 40 #1 dance chart hits; the highest ever in the dance chart countdown by an artist… only Madonna could honor Jackson in a way that other American leaders couldn’t. She did. Wow! What a moment!
2. TIE B: Janet Jackson’s performance of her duet song with brother Michael, Scream was amazing. Janet is back.
4. Kanye West’s interruption of Taylor Swift’s speech, for Taylor’s first ever VMA award she’d won drew boos from the crowd. Of course this was staged (as was the Eminem and Bruno prank at the MTV Popcorn Awards earlier this year), but it seemed so real, even Pink tweeted about it before her performance. Kanye created a moment that stole the show.
Taylor Lautner of New Moon and Q’orianka Kilcher of Eclipse and The New World are on everyone’s minds in Hollywood entertainment today as the USA celebrates the 40th anniversary of humans landing on the moon.

Alicia Keys stars as Michelle Obama, supportive Military Mom caring for the country at home in The White House, love the pooch standing guard of Momma Obama in this representation! Fierce!
Alicia Keys is glamorous in Glamour Magazine’s 70th Anniversary edition, that iconizes images of American female empowerment. Here as Michelle Obama, Alicia looks the most socially responsible, she’s ever appeared as a pop star. The First Lady has made it very clear that her passions are being a Mom, educating the nation, and she is perhaps the most supportive woman of a front line man and military families, that we’ve seen in American politics in quite a while! Effectively, current world, political history has dictated that Michelle Obama must cast herself as ‘stay at home’ military mom. Alicia nails Michelle’s responsibilities at hand, as her children, adore her and emulate her on the steps of the White House. Children must never know that there’s major strife on our hands y’all?! PARENTS must be strong and maintain a sense of play.
And … Oh yes, No one, no one, no one… can get in the way of what Alecia Key’s is feeling for the Obama effort to prepare America for the ‘storms’ that lie ahead of this nation. Nice pose Alicia! Work it girl!
