UN Foundation

#Philanthropy ~ My work with the United Nations Foundation Girl UP Campaign has been some of the most rewarding work I have done. Advocating for girls and young women around the globe is my passion and it is the reason I started my nonprofit - the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for GIRLS. When you empower a girl, she WILL change the world! 👧🏾

Oscars

Flashback to #Oscars 2008. 💚 This picture is from one of the four years that I hosted the Academy’s Official Oscar Pre-Show. Dad was my date. He was so excited to be there! I have covered 16 Academy Awards throughout my career when I was host at Access Hollywood. I remember standing on that red carpet, for the first time (years before this picture was taken) and kept thinking…I’m a little black girl from the northwest side of Detroit, Michigan - thousands of miles away from the bright lights of Hollywood. What it took to get me there - at a time when I was one of only a few faces of color on the red carpet - was a dream, hard work, supportive parents and blessings from my Almighty Lord above. As I look at this picture that brings back so many memories, I’m wishing all of my friends reporting from the red carpet and all the nominees “Good Luck!” and a wonderful time at the big show! 🏆

MACRO

Loved this beautiful photo set-up at the MACRO Pre-Oscar party. (If not for the good lighting, it sure gave my feet a rest during the night! 💃🏾)

WRATH

Coming up! WRATH! It’s the third movie in our 7 Deadly Sins series on Lifetime! Set your DVR’s for Saturday, April 16th at 8p/7c. Check out the trailer below! 👇🏾

Leading Women Defined

Hosting the Leading Women Defined Summit founded by my friend Debra Lee. It’s an amazing group of business women coming together to inspire, network and encourage each other.

The Supreme Mary Wilson

On this, the great Mary Wilson’s Birthday, I found this #tb picture from the day she was a guest on my talk show, in my hometown Detroit. Mary was, of course, already a legend however, I remember her being one of the nicest, most gracious people I had the pleasure of interviewing. We talked about her early days at Motown and singing in the Supremes. What joy she brought! A Heavenly Birthday, Mary! We salute you! 💖

Black History Month Award

A big “Thank You!” to 10-year-old Brianna for presenting me with the ‘Black History Month’ Award for Outstanding Achievements in our community and the world, given by McCoy Memorial Baptist Church.
