ROMANE BOUGIE: 2014 OSCARS REVIEW


So last evening brought with it The 86th Annual Academy Awards and it was quite the ball. With fashion queens and kings walking the most prestigious red carpet Romane Bougie caught a few eye popping moments as well as a few hits and misses. 

For this years show, I noticed a lot of black, a lot of champagne colors and sheer were some of the evening's top trends. While Ellen Degeneres doing hosting duties and capturing a selfie that has amassed over 2 million retweets, lets just say this years festivities was the best in recent years. And with reports that the show brought in top ratings in years, I think Ellen should be on the look out for a callback when the 87th staging of the show gets here in 2015. 

Ok, back to the fashion, with some of the fashion principals prevailing, some fell short. And if Lupita Nyong'o light blue Prada dress didn't make her the belle of the ball, I think her win for Best Supporting Actress did. The ladies weren't the only fashionable ones as the males were not to be outdone. Tuxedos! Tuxedos! Tuxedos!

SNOOP DOGG'S BOLD FRENCH MANICURE


Rap veteran Snoop Dogg has set the internet ablaze when he uploaded a picture of what looks like a french manicure on his instagram page. Of course Snoop's picture was met with much criticism as fans as well as the casual listener have started to question the gangsta rapper's sexuality. 

And Snoop clearly knew the backlash he would endure for the above picture, still made the bold move. 

So I ask, is this something we should get worked up over or are people overreacting?

NEW VIDEO: BEYONCE- 'PARTITION'


Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

With reports that Rihanna is heading back to the studio, Beyonce dug into her trusty bag of tricks to release her clever yet steamy music video 'Partition' pulled from the visual album 'Beyonce'. With the hype surrounding the album dying quicker of her chance at scoring a #1 record in this era, the star is making sure that 'Partition' does what 'Drunk In Love' never did. Perhaps an ode to Ms. Fenty.
