I WAS THINKIN
We've been hearing about J-Hud and her family for a few days now, and although it's tragic and real sad, this whole thing raised an eyebrow...or McCain's thumb...I mean this all could have been prevented--that is if William Balfour is the killer. Knowing of his history, why would Julia Hudson marry a man fresh out of jail and have him around her child? This might be mean of me to say, sorry for being superficial, but...dude...you married an ex con...why would you be with some1 like that when you have a child. I kno...peoplechange..they find God or Allah or whatever...but I would be a little more cautious, you could never be too sure, you know? I can see if it's just you...but you have a kid that needs extra protection, because if something were to happen to that child...your life is over... I mean how irresponsible can you be? His mother, Michele Balfour told reporters, "I didn't raise no murderer. He was not a child abductor.They have the wrong person." I would believe her but *newsflash* he is being held for violating his parole on a 1999 conviction for attempted murder and vehicular hijacking, and he served 7 years in prison. I know if I ever had children and for some reason I was single and looking for a new boo, I would be looking through a fine tooth comb...*sigh* I'm spent....What do ya'll think?

ANYTIME ANYONE DIES IT HURTS THE SAME
It's a shame what happened to Jennifer Hudson's mother brother and nephew over the weekend and our prayers and thoughts go out to her and her family but during this incident it made me question our state of mind regarding celebrities. Is it not a tragedy anytime any ones mother or family member dies or gets killed? Do the families of people that are not related to celebrities hurt any less? I am not trying to take anything away from Jennifer Hudson's family at all but in the grand scheme of things isn't my family just as important in my eyes as hers is in her eyes? Does she value her family more than, let's say Lisa Sanders?? But because she is a celebrity I feel like we make it seem worse or our hearts go out a lil bit more b/c she is who she is. The bottom line is somebody died and we should give those same condolences to Lisa Sanders family as we do to our black celebrities.

HALLOWEEN... FACT OR FICTION
Halloween is just around the corner and many are looking for a fly costumre or where the hot spot will be to partake in a night of fun and pretend. But what about those not so pretend moments and encounters with ghosts and spirits? A lot of people don't believe in ghosts and say that experiences that people have with spirits are "in the mind"...So what do you think? Are ghosts real or fake? And have you ever had a not so fun run in?

HOMECOMING
I know a lot of us went back to visit former schools or alma maters for homecoming during the last few weeks to kick it or relive a college weekend and the "college good life" but in doing so did you feel out of place?? PF3 had the pleasure of visiting an Illinois college campus this weekend and it was great, distant, boring, fun, and interesting all at the same time. But there were moments when we felt "old" lol. So with that said, when yall go back to visit schools after you are a few years older, do yall go thru that "what am I doing here" thought process??

IN REAL LIFE...
I know that every lady out there is anxiously awaiting the newest show to come to vh1 "Real Chance at Love". In case you cannot tell, I am being VERY sarcastic right now. The whole Stallionaire situation is WACK ARNOLD'S in the words of Mark Byrd.
Don't you wish you could have a Stallionaire of your own?

RAYNA REIGNS...
So, I know you've heard…Gabrielle Union and D.Wade are OFFICIAL! The ink on the divorce papers isn't even dry yet and, technically, D. Wade is still married. This brings me to the question: How soon is too soon? Yeah, we don't know the specs of what happened in this particular situation, but imagine if it were you. If you were married and your partner wanted a divorce, then 5 min later they were all over town with someone who had more money, was better looking, and just everything you couldn't be….how would you feel? How much time would you need to mend your broken heart?

RAYNA REIGNS...
Jazmine Sullivan's "Fearless" has been on repeat in my IPOD for the past week. I must admit, when first heard her single "Need You Bad", I was thinking "who is the fake ass Lauryn Hill? No this newcomer did not come and straight swagger-jack my shero! (pre-clown makeup phase. Just pray for her…)". Anyway, I added 8 new albums to my IPOD before I hit the gym and was going to give them a listen while getting my Kanye workout plan on, but could not get off of Jazmine Sullivan!
Before Jazmine, I listened to the new J. Hud and I give her label a big thumbs down. Jennifer Hudson is an amazing talent and her label should've hooked her up with some songwriters and producers who could do more for her. I'm not sure who all contributed to the album, but watered down, unoriginal songs (except for "Spotlight") did not do anything for that powerful voice. Maybe I was expecting too much from her, but her potential is limitless!
Anyway, back to Jazmine. Just about every song is hot and the emotion in her voice is intense. The only song that she could've kept was the one about being abused. Yes, it is her true story, but it just seems forced and I kept thinking about Eve's hit she had back in the day. Long story short, you NEED to listen to her album. Period! If you've heard it, please let me know I'm not alone on this!
Neyo was alright for a third album. I was hoping he had more up-tempo tracks; ballads are just easy for him. Of course, lyrically, I gotta give him a hand clap. Honestly, he is the best songwriter out right now (maybe he should've done the whole J. Hud album because "Spotlight" is my song!). Robin Thicke's "Something New" was just that, a different type of sound than the Thicke that we're used to. And it works! The new Mint Condition is another disappointment. There are a few tracks that stayed true to their style and the songs that they were adventurous on just did not do it for me. Stick with what works! I still have Eric Benet and Raphael Saadiq (which I hear is excellent) to listen to so more on those later. So what ya'll think?

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Now I know what the immediate response to this question is going to be so I ask you to look deeper than that first answer that pops into your head when responding to this topic.
If your significant other cheats, do you automatically end it and call it quits??? I'm always interested to see what people say when asked this b/c you never truly know what you will do until you are in the situation and people forget how strong feelings are. So with that being said, do you instantly call it quits if someone cheats??
Comments please

WHAT A BIGGEDY BITCH!!! LMAO!!!
Rapper Maino (”Hi Hater”) confirms he indeed slapped the ish out of Young Berg (who I have technically banned from YBF but this ish was too funny to pass up) at a club this weekend. Basically Berg The Idiot walked up to Maino at a club the other night, said “I heard you’ve been talking reckless about me”, and actually repeated himself when Maino asked “What?” So in true NY style, Maino hauled off and slapped Berg Ike and Tina style for disrespecting him. Maino’s take?
“He didn’t come to me asking a question, he was like stepping to me. If you got a question for me, ask me in a way that we can talk about it. Don’t approach me like it’s a problem,” Maino continued. “I did a little bit of God’s work, I tried to discipline him.” “I’m a man before anything so if I’m at a club and somebody approach me in a disrespectful manner, what are you supposed to do? I don’t know how to handle it any other kind of way. I feel like I just gave him something light,” Maino added. “When you think about what could have happened…I’m around 20 people in my area and he came up to me asking me was I talking about him recklessly. I had no idea what he was talking about. I felt like I did him a favor. I tried to sober him up because something was wrong with him.”

SINCE THE VIDEO DIDN'T WORK...
In the video the kid Sergeant Willie Pete was talking about how girls tend to like a guy that's a thug, or has some street cred if u will (however u want to describe, but you know what I'm talking about) and they will go for this guy the clean cut guy. His rant was amusing nonetheless but he brought up some valid points in his rant that we can easily talk about here. So ladies, we ask you, do you always want the "bad boy"?? What is so appealing about him when you know 9 times out of 10 it's gon be more drama associated with him and more bad times than good?? I'm sure I'm not the only one that has gotten burned and walked away thinking "this nigga ain't got shit goin for himself and she wants him" (it was a blow to my Bannekar but I recovered lol) but holla at me... Why is it that women often go for the guy thats "bad to the bone"

Basically she said she likes thugs and she don't want a "soft" guy. So the issue is, do all black women want a thug?? Check out Sergeant Wille Pete's break down of her responses in the magazine. I don't agree with everything he said, but he did make some valid points...
