Labor Day Fab
Check out how the YBF folks are spending Labor Day…
Byron Allen, his wife Jennifer Lucas, and their newborn all hit the beach:


Look at daddy getting his maternal skills on. Daughter Chloe Ava Allen was born in Los Angeles on Aug. 22 at 2:15 p.m. She weighed 7 lbs., 14 oz., and was 20 inches long.

Richard T. Jones (”Girlfriends”, Why Did I Get Married?) was spotted with his wife of 12 years Nancy and their 3 kids Aubrey, Sydney, and Elijah Ware in Hawaii:


Cute.
Jill Marie Jones and Cuttino Mobley hosted the Labor Day Classic fundraising party to benefit the PhillyCat Foundation and United Friends of the Children in Santa Monica:

Is that Black nail polish on your toes Cuttino or do you just have a fungus?

Jill’s still looking fab.

And if Cuttino wasn’t so suspect….
More celeb pics when you read the rest…


You know you love it.
And at Jill and Cuttino’s fundraiser in Santa Monica:

MC Lyte was there.

Fun times.
The Randomness:
1. I hope all my Gulf Coast folks are safe from the beast that is Hurricane Gustav.
Happy Labor Day!

I did see her on a few commericals, but what about the movies! not feeling the outfit and that 80’s mom waist bag she is rocking, the metal chain around the bag just made it more tacky! best of luck to her!

On Sep 1, 2008 at 12:30 pm | Reply | QuoteI know many wonder why Cuttino has nail polish on his toes. I am pretty sure I know the answer to that. As most may not know athletes usually have bad feet due to the wear they put on them over the years. Sooo many athletes have commented on how ugly their toes are b/c of this. I know Cuttino is vain as he**! lol I can guarantee that he would rather walk around with nail polish on those toes than show his busted toes without!

On Sep 1, 2008 at 12:32 pm | Reply | QuoteOk, what in the …..??? Black toe nail polish??? He officially moves from the “suspect” category to the “confirmed pillow biter” catagory. That is sooooo sad. Steve Francis really turned him out. So sad. So sad.

Anyways, hope yall are being safe this Labor Day… especially my ppl on the Gulf Coast…

Thanks Natasha for countering the Byron Allen photos with photos showing a black man being dedicated to a black woman and their children ala Richard T. Jones. His stock just went up.
The way Cuttino is holding that drink definitely makes my gadar go off.
For a minute there I thought MC Lyte was Eva from ANTM.

LOL! Judge Greg Mathis chooses clear nail polish for his manicure. It looks pretty clean and fresh. I think this is more acceptable though than the toe painting ish. Imagine your man asking to borrow your fave colour if he ran out of his black.

Natasha you HAVE to post about John McCain’s VP pick’s daughter being FIVE MONTHS PREGNANT!!! Its on ALL the news sites. And her husband was arrested for a DWI a whil back. Talk about family values.
I knew his decision to put her on the ticket would turn out to be one of the BIGGEST blunders in political HISTORY!!! I can’t wait to see how the Republicans and Fox News try to spin this!!!

On Sep 1, 2008 at 4:01 pm | Reply | Quotethis is my issue with blk men and white women
okay… “so you love them” but why is it that when a blk man is carrying a blk baby he is holding it with all that love and affection??
I was just in NY the other day and i saw two interracial couples on a double date (blk men with White women) and the guys were holding them so tightly they could all barely walk across the street fast enuf to beat the light but when i see a blk man with a blk women i dont see all the PDA
whats with that…

LOL! It’s funny you should mention that. A black male friend of mine once said to me he feels more relaxed with white women than black women. In his teenage years he got teased a lot from black women because of his acne and they never really accepted him. I often wonder why they tend to grab on for dear life when with a white woman but I figure it boils down to who you love. Sometimes we don’t get the ideal person we have in our minds to date and end up finding someone really nice.

Richard Jones is/was Joan’s current fiancee who went off to Iraq. He was also in that movie “G” that always comes on cable. They don’t look alike to me…
