The Urban Woman Radio: Waiting to Exhale (So Excited for the Whitney Movie)

Welcome to The Urban Woman Radio. We are definitely waiting to exhale as we anticipate tomorrow's Whitney Houston Movie on Lifetime.  Are you going to be watching ? At first I was not going to watch it. I felt Angela Bassette was being disrespectful to the memory of Whitney Houston especially since her family did not want the movie to happen. 

After seeing the previews, I think it is going to be a hit like the TLC movie. They certainly did a good job of casting. We will see and you know we do a special recap tomorrow night after the movie.

Speaking of movies, Selma did not receive as many Oscar nominations as it should. David Oyelowo should have been nominated for Best Actor. However, as I said in my previous show, he is not Denzel nor is he Jamie Foxx or Cuba Gooding Jr. This is in no way meant to be disrespectful. He is not the typical Hollywood definition of cool.  He is more of a Sidney Poitier. Speaking of which he could certainly portray him should they make a movie about his life. 

I also wanted to mention that we will also be doing restaurant reviews. Today's review is of the restaurant Erawan on Bell Blvd in Bayside. I went there the other day for take out. The waitress asked me, "Would you like to pay first ?" i should have said no. But really ? I did not see anyone else given that "option" 

Did you all see Dance Moms on Tuesday night ? Holly is in rare form. Showin' out as they say. Big shout outs to Holly. I did not know she is a native New Yorker. She is from the Bronx. Nia deserves so much more than the back row and ethnic roles. She is very talented. I hope Debbie Allen takes her under her wing one day. We all miss Chloe, Paige and Brooke. The show is not the same. Everyone is blaming Abby. I blame the Producers. They cause the drama in order to keep the show on the air. The girls are paying the price...Stay Tuned.
