Sparkle “E” was on the scene… for NBA AllStar ⭐️Weekend 2018 🔥🔥🏀🔥🔥

All Star Weekend…was DEFINITELY *ALL THAT‼️*

It had all the pageantry… and perks it needed to be FIRST CLASS… ALL THE WAY!!!

It was dazzling…..

“Hoops” there it is….. Sporty… and oh so FABULOUS!!!!

It had flair… It was exciting… and fun!!!

with an air of mystery in some places…

I tell ya… the sponsors went ALL out creating events that were quite impressive!!! Here are some Highlights…

Some of the major sponsors included American Express…Kia……

Tissot…Verizon….Under Armour… Foot locker… Marriott… Gatorade… Rakuten… Ruffles….SAP…Kumho Tires… Kaiser Permanente

Jack Daniels… Nike…

Mountain Dew…Spalding…State Farm… Taco Bell…

There were tons of interactive things at parties… and hosted events…

I participated in an “Escape Room” challenge in the Kia All Star Loft…

I was assigned to the “Arena Room”

My team… had 10 minutes to solve NBA related puzzles…

( It was something else too… 🧐 but WE did it!!! )

We solved everything… and took home some pretty nice prizes & rewards…

And speaking of getting rewards… there were LOTS of fantastic give-always and SWAG!!! I got sooo much cool stuff‼️👍🏽

And the best photos…

I like this one… It’s pretty creative… According to the art presentation… Ballers played so hard… the wooden court floor exploded 💥and created this artsy backdrop!

Let’s see… I got cups, beverage containers, trading cards, refrigerator magnets, phone accessories, hats, foam fingers, light up sabers, T-shirts… and gift-bags…with a lot of other unique keepers…

Rewinding back to T-shirts… I thought it was SUPER COOL… to be able to choose your own style… design and color shirt… and have it made while you wait…(((FOR FREE!!!)))

Some of the choices included photos of popular ballers ⛹️ ⛹🏽 faces… or likeness…

There were T-shirt captions: “Team Steph” or “Team LeBron” ….and ahhhh…”Old G of the night” -LOL!- 😆 Yeah! You know I had to get it!

since the AllStar Event was held in California… You could also get A Palm Tree 🌴 Logo…

When it came to festivities…. Los Angeles definitely lived up to high standards!

There was no shortage of celebrities…. VIP’s and other star ⭐️ athletes…

So great to see Louuuu!!!!!

Lou Williams… that is… star player from the LA Clippers!!!

FYI… he’s-from around where I grew up in Georgia… He attended Gwinnett HighSchool… in Snellville GA… 😃

It was also great to see Rick Fox!!!🤗

Rick Fox… is a former 3 time champion… who played with the LA Lakers!!!

He is now starring in the role of “Darius Nash…” on the popular series.. “Greenleaf” 🌱🍃 on the OWN network…

Oooo-ooh!!! Those three championships Rick Fox played in…included some of my ALL TIME DREAM Lakers team Players…of ALL TIME!!! 💜💛💜💛💜💛

Rick Fox…Derek Fisher…Kobe Bryant… Robert Horry…Lamar Odom… Shaq…

Whoa!!!!! Speak of “Shaq…” he just made a mighty grand entrance!

“Shaq” is a very popular sportscaster… with the TNT Roadshow…

The Broadcast team did several Live Reports during the NBA AllStar game…. and special shows leading up to the event.

The NBA studio team includes Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O’Neal

When he arrived on set… just outside the Staples Center… Shaq greeted the crowd with his famous catch phrase:

“Cannn Youuu DIG IT‼️

Fa sho…. Shaq!!!! 🤨

Shaq-a-docious!!! 😜😁😆

***** I can DIG IT!!!! ✊🏽****

Let’s get more into the ***MAIN EVENT***

The format for the 67th All-star game changed this year…. Yep! No more East -vs-West…

It was TEAM LeBron…-vs- TEAM Steph..

The powers that be… decided it was time to switch it up… and make things even more competitive.

With this NEW approach… captains LeBron

James and Stephen Curry had a chance to choose their own rosters…

And you know what… it turned out to be pretty cool… well.. let’s keep it real… it was A GREAT SUCCESS!!!

Personally… I think both LeBron & Steph are AWESOME!!! I couldn’t think of two better people to lead these squads…

They’ve got mad basketball skills… they are both respectable family men… and well liked human beings in general… sports aside…

They’re also VERY GENEROUS!!!!

The All star ⭐️ game ended with them securing A LOT of money… for deserving charities/programs serving young people! 🗣 Yay!!!! Steph & LeBron!!! #YouRock ‼️

Can I get a round of applause for these guys⁉️👏🏼👏🏽👏👏🏽👏🏿👏🏽👏🏽👏🏻👏🏽👏🏽👏🏻

Both sides were going at it hard… wanting to WIN… but in the final moments…Team LeBron had a comeback…and Team LeBron beat Team Steph by three points! 148-145

I’m like…. Hold Up… 🖐🏽 Wait a Minute…. 🛑

Let me get a quick pix with the trophy’s!!! 🤩

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cool!!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Congratulations Team LeBron!!!!

All hail King James!!! 👑

LeBron James was named MVP… after his team won the 2018 NBA AllStar game…Sunday, February 18th… at Staples Center…in downtown LA..

This is his third career… All Star MVP VICTORY!!!!

As the excitement started to wind down… I walked out into the cool night air..

and looked up to see the Blimp hovering over LA…

It was going back and forth over Staples Center… and LA Live…I guess trying to capture the last bit of action… from one of the BEST NBA AllStar games in the record books!!!

Sparkle- “ E” on the scene.. of “Proud Mary” opening weekend at the box office!!!

..🎶…And we’re rolling…. Rolling… Roll-ing down the River!!!! 🎵🎶

“Proud Mary,” focuses on a hard core assasin… wiith a soft spot… for a child who needs her…

Mary Goodwin, (Taraji P. Henson), is a bad ass chick… working for an organized crime family in Boston.

She is the key hit woman for one drug cartel, while this creepy dude “Uncle” is a drug dealer for a rival one…

Their paths often cross… during mean street conflicts… and territorial issues…

After a professional hit… Mary leaves a young boy…Danny (Jahi Di’Allo Winston), unharmed….

Danny is a young runner for “Uncle.” A year after the hit… Mary re-discovers the boy…in an unfortunate situation… and rescues him…

Her life spirals out of control… when she responds to something connected to the child in a flash of anger….

Mannnnnn….when Mary sees RED… 😡 WATCH OUT ‼️‼️‼️

This Sista is a baaaaaadddd…….. !@&$%## 🤬

(((( Shut yo’ 👄 mouth!!!))) 🤐

Uh-huh that’s right… hardcore assasin action to make you think about a modern day “Shaft” meets Coffee meets Jackie Brown… meets Cleopatra Jones….meets “Cookie” turnt up several notches…. yeah!!!!

👉🏽 that’s it…that’s it!!!! 👈🏽

I think we all like that special flavor…Taraji brings to her roles…

If you like her as Cookie… and you followed all her big time action in “person of interest” ——> like I did…. You… will L❤️VE this film!!!!

As for me… I love this film for a lot of reasons: #1. It takes me back to matinee saturdays of my childhood… when we would either go to see movies from this genre… or catch them on 📺 TV…. If we were lucky… some “super station” like TBS… or one of the networks would show us an evening presentation of an ACTION movie like this… with an ALL STAR BLACK CAST….

I saw in one review… where someone called “Proud Mary” a blaxploitation Film…. Nah. I disagree….

❌❌❌ Slow.your.roll……..❌❌❌

Why would you even categorize it like that… in 2018… when we’ve had TONS of other mob movies… and crime dramas… and action thrillers with bad ass characters.. shiesty… and shady ones too…(((just like this…))) and no one labeled those with a negative by-line…

💁🏽‍♀️ So PLEASE… .LETS.NOT.GO.THERE!!!!! 🙅🏽‍♀️🙅🏽‍♀️🙅🏽‍♀️🙅🏽‍♀️

#2. Taraji is one of the few leading ladies… of color to headline a FILM in Hollywood ⭐️🎬🎞🎥⭐️ and this is MAJOR folks!!! ((( She’s really good in this role peeps: rugged…raw… and so real!!! “A super-sista.. assasin… with a heart ❤️ of gold”)))

✨✨ But wait…. there’s MORE!!!✨

Taraji is also credited as EXECUTIVE PRODUCER of this film…. and THAT is a major feat… for an African American woman… to achieve in Hollywood ….

Watch this… She does this…all the while she’s starring in ANOTHER leading role… for the HIT Fox television series… “EMPIRE!!!” 💥💥💥💥💥Boom!

You guys: What was that⁉️

Evette: Glad you asked…..

That was me dropping the mic… 🎤💥

Picking the mic back up…. 🎤

Now… I read some where… where SOME-BODY said the plot… and story line was quote “ sloppy”…

Humph….. putting my heads on hips…

You know…what…

There are real life things happening just like this… in the inner cities all over the world FOR REAL…. If you rip articles from the news papers… LIFE is hardcore… It’s GRITTY…. it’s tough… hardcore events occurring on the streets are not perfectly choreographed… or planned… or perfectly scripted out…

This story line takes a path of its own… as one thing… leads to another… and attempts to FIX the mess… just keeps.getting.worse…

This is ENTERTAINMENT folks… A work of FICTION that has been created to suck you in… and keep your attention to the very end…. An ending that will surprise you….😮 something we wouldn’t expect….after everything that happened….

This SONY and SCREEN GEMS project stars:

Taraji P. Henson as Mary Goodwin. Billy Brown as (Tom),… hey y’all… this is the fine detective dude… that Annalise would have those hot steamy encounters with… on ABC’s…”How to get away with murder…” 😅

In my southern gossip lady voice: “Oh Lawd!!! Mister… and Shug Avery done got back together!!!” 🙌🏽 ( Lolz!!!!!)

Slaps knee… 😆 and continues: All dez years after “The Color Purple!!” 🤣… but this time … “ They’s married now!!!” 🤣😅😂😆

Just a fun fflashback to the famous line… Oprah’s character Sophia said… after she married Harpo…( “We’d married now!!!) which by the way… has been a spirited expression… that all my close friends have said… after they walked down the isle in REAL LIFE… he…hee… just one of the cute lil’ things that adds to wonderful memories…

Anywho… One more thought to share: The SLANG language I use..in writing… is just a creative way to add some spice to my blogs… peeps..

so chill… 😜 savor… the flavor…and enjoy the humor of it all…

💁🏽‍♀️ Now where was I…🙋🏽‍♀️ Oh! “Mister” in the Color Purple” you know…was played by the Great actor…Danny Glover… who is now..(Benny) …. head of a powerful Boston drug family in “Proud Mary”…

Benny’s beautiful wife… (Mina), is the divine actress…Margaret Avery… oooh… ☝🏽one more credit…y’all…

Margaret Avery also plays the role of Mary Jane’s mom.. on the hit series…”Mary Jane” on BET…🙂

Last but not least…Introducing Jahi Di’Allo Winston… who does a fantastic job as the young Boy (Danny)….

I predict we’ll see a lot more of his cute face in Productions to come! 👍🏽 …

rounding out the sensational cast are MaNeal McDonough as (Walter)… Xander Berkeley as (Uncle.) and Rade Serbedzija as Luka.

“Proud Mary” is directed by Babak Nahafi…. from a script by Steven Antin, John Stuart Newman and Christian Swegal. The project was produced by. Andrea Ajemian. and co-producer. Tai Duncan.

********** Newsflash!!!!! 📸 *********

I can definitely see a couple of doors🚪 🚪 🚪 that could open-up into an intriguing PART TWO… for “PROUD MARY”

production / writing ✍🏽 Crew…. I have got some GREAT ideas for YOU!!!

!!!!!!! Ooooo-ooooh!!!!!!!! Y’all need to 🤙🏽 call me! 📞 I’ve got 3 different great storylines drafted in my head!!!!

👉🏽If…. ….you guys haven’t started on a part two…. yet! 😉

Peace ✌🏽 out everybody…. round up your crew… and go out and BUY TICKETS to support this film!!!

Taraji has used her voice… and influence to support important issues in Hollywood… ( and for women! )

She’s been HONORED by Women in Film… for her achievements in television & film… as well as her commitment and dedication to the entertainment industry.

Taraji is also an HBCU grad… of HOWARD UNIVERSITY….(( HU.))) who made it BIG!!!! #Yay!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

As a graduate of CAU… (Clark-Atlanta)..in the AUC… ( Atlanta University Center….) I Say: Let’s demonstrate our power at the movie box office!!!

HBCU grads… 👩🏽‍🎓👨🏽‍🎓and students now enrolled in these prestigious institutions… plan a fun night at the movies… and support this project! Spread the word… with positive vibes!!!

I bought a souvenir ticket…and was pleased to walk into a packed theater @RegalMovies in downtown LA… #ProudMaryAtRegal

My Challenge is also issued to Sororites, Fraternities, Guy groups, girl squads…. roll dolls… golden girls… and guys… senior groups… couples getting together for “date night” 💋…and every other group of folks out there…who have prayed for diversity in film making!

Folks who will appreciate a great escape from real 🌎 world problems… to the world of excitement… and fictional action on the BIG SCREEN!!!

Here’s to MORE outstanding movies 🎥 being made… 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽…and giving DESERVING ACTORS a chance to ✨✨SHINE ON!!!✨✨

CHEERS ‼️🎉🎉🎉

“An Evening with… Regina⭐️King…” Hollywood Confidential 


Hollywood ⭐️ can be a tough place to navigate… but for REGINA KING…it’s been smooth sailing since her childhood… 👧🏽 —> Everybody remembers spunky lil’ “BRENDA” Jenkins on the NBC sitcom 227 (1985–90) 
Now there were a few difficult years …after 227 ended. Suddenly…Regina says work was hard to get.. because most casting people could only see her as that  💕sweet lil’ teenager👧🏽 🎀💕from the show… 

-but- ☝🏽Regina changed her destiny ….taking on more challenging roles. characters that were tougher… outspoken.. streetwise… and sometimes hardcore….

Ooohhhh yeahhhh…. #SheDidThat!!!

She went HARD in “Boys in the Hood” “Poetic Justice” and “Higher Learning” 

She jumped easily between dramatic roles <——> and comedic performances in films including “Friday” “A Thin Line Between Love and Hate”—-> “How Stella got her groove back” 

YasSssss!!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽  Regina was on her way to BIG SUCCESS with a supporting role in the feature film “Jerry Maguire.” 

Working with Cuba Gooding she says was great! Regina says they “clicked” in the audition… and had great chemistry on screen.

—-but wait… there’s MORE…. 👉🏽👉🏽 More movies 🎥!!!!

“Enemy of the state” “Miss Congeniality” “Mighty Joe Young” “Down to Earth” “Daddy Day Care” “Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde”  “A Cinderella Story” “Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous…” and the Oscar nominated film “Ray” followed by “This Christmas” 🎄 

Other hit TV shows…involved acclaimed work as the voice of Huey and Riley Freeman for the animated series “The Boondocks” 

and then came “Southland..” where she played the role of  Detective Lydia Adams on TNT… followed by parts in “The Big Bang Theory” “Shameless” and the FX thriller “The Strain.”

Making wise career choices… with a more diverse selection of roles in film and television… gave Regina a chance to prove herself as a GREAT ACTOR… with serious skills!

Her star ⭐️ continued to ✨RISE✨ … as she won MULTIPLE awards for her performances.

 Regina’s role in “Southland” scored two Critics’ Choice Award nominations for “Best Supporting Actress” in a Drama Series in 2012 and 2013.  From 2015 to 2017, she starred in the ABC series “American Crime,” –> earning  TWO WINS for Emmy Awards…and a total of three nominations for “Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series” She has had won SAG AWARDS, and NAACP Honors..

-Regina was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award! 

–Wow!- This sista has been doing it… and doing it RIGHT!!!! 👍🏽

From 2015 to 2017, she played Erika Murphy on the critically acclaimed HBO drama, “The Leftovers,”for which she has received a Critics’ Choice Television Award nomination.

The MULTIPLE award winning actress 🏆shared wonderful stories with the audience… she answered detailed questions about her film 🎞🎥and television📺 career…. from Steve Jones… creator of #HollywoodConfidential

Steve asked Regina lots of intriguing questions….helping the audience learn more about her hopes… and dreams..

One of Regina’s dreams… was to use the knowledge she’s gained… from more than 30 years in show business... to guide other actors… in the process.

*********    and so…..  **********

King took ACTION!!!! 👉🏽 and took her career up to the next level … stepping behind the camera…. and on her mark ✖️in the role of “DIRECTOR!!!”

“An evening with Regina King” was sponsored by Hollywood Confidential.. and held on Thursday, October 5, 2017… at the Saban Theatre… in Beverly Hills, CA 

******** News Flash!!!! 📸 ******* 

Regina announced at the event…that she and her sister just closed an entertainment deal for a NEW project.  

She says she’s THRILLED to be in a position to give more opportunities to talented women in the industry.  

Regina also announced that she’s working on her first  MOVIE 🎥 in 9 years!!! 

After all… she says she’s been extremely busy in TELEVISION… and Yasssss!!!! TV 📺 has been very, VERY **GOOD** to her! 🤗 

Listening to her personal stories… and advice was truly inspiring! I looked around at people in the audience.. and noticed several faces just **glowing!** 

What a beautiful group of people I thought…💭

 Many were naturally attractive… but quite a few looked even more ~sensational ~ after getting STAR ⭐️ treatment… with complimentary PAMPERING Services… sponsored by WALGREENS. 

👉🏽Now **that’s *** what I’m talking about!!! 😄
It was a night 🌃 filled with LOTS of surprises 😄for attendees!

Casting Director Kim Hardin…and a corporate executive from Walgreens talked about the ~fabulous~ onsite set-up….of exciting product demonstrations.


*** WALGREENS ***  sponsored a ✨Pop-Up  BEAUTY Shop✨at the event! 

My eyes 👀 lit up when I walked in the room…. and saw all those beauty Services!!!

Lots of lucky🍀 ladies… took advantage of massages…makeup… 💄💋 eyelash and lipstick bars, manicures.. 💅🏽 
There were also coupons passed out…along with keepsakes for EVERYONE to take home! 

#SWAG BAGS 💼 make you GLAD!!! #Yay!!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

 Legendary casting director Kim Hardin..who discovered Taraji, J-LO, Tyrese, Halle Berry and several other popular stars…took the stage again… after the discussion with Regina King… to share tips…that every every actor needs to know… to book leading roles! 

Hardin encouraged actors to “put in the work” and keep acting skills tight…taking classes focusing on scene study…improv… and character development…. 

She said performers should go to auditions ~prepared~ with key knowledge about the characters they’re reading for in session…. 

She believes it’s important for actors to breakdown interpretations of how they believe a character ~thinks~ and ~feels…~ 

Hardin motivated actors to do their BEST in auditions. Make wise choices… & be confident. 

She says actors should NEVER stress out about what they could have done… or should have done… Just Let it go! When you’re done…with the audition.. be done!

Asking your representative to get notes from casting directors about your performance later is fine she says… Ultimately… these details help actors do better…the next time they audition…. or even book a role.

Hardin believes actors should always keep pictures up to date… with a variety of different looks! She wants to KNOW exactly who you are…. when you walk in the room with that headshot!
