PETA Protester Confronts Pharrell Williams During Film Premiere

Image
A protester from the organization, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), disrupted a speech being given by Pharrell Williams at a Biopic Premiere in Toronto.  She rushed the stage with a white sign in her hand that read:  Pharrell: Stop Supporting Killing Animals for Fashion.  Pharrell was in Toronto to support his LEGO biopic entitled, Piece by Piece.   The protester directed a number of statements towards Pharrell and the audience concerning his role as men's creative director at Louis Vuitton.   "Your Louis Vuitton collection … Pharrell’s collection is made from their blood,” the protester shouted to the audience. “Pharrell stop torturing animals! Ostriches are being hung upside down, electrocuted with their necks slit.”   PETA is petitioning Louis Vuitton to stop abusing animals and using their bodily materials for the purpose of fashion creation.  During the protest, Pharrell made a pause during his speech and outrightly agreed with the protester.  "Ok.

Jazmine Sullivan Goes Vegan and Drops a Few Dress Sizes

Powerhouse sanger, Jazmine Sullivan, or as I like to call her “J Sully” has gone VEGAN!!!!!! Welcome to the world of vegan, J Sully!!!!! On the set of her new music video for “Lost One,” Jazmine revealed that her mother is battling inflammatory breast cancer and she desired to support her mother by going vegan with her. Going vegan obviously changed Jazmine’s life in a major way because she’s lost 50 lbs.






“My goal was to support my mother through her battle with cancer by going vegan with her, and in turn it helped me as well. And I feel really good,” she said.





It’s not a surprise that Jazmine’s mother, pamela, has decided to turn to a vegan plant based diet. I’ve known a couple of individuals who either died from cancer or who are battling cancer and there is a commonality among them. They were or are avid meat eaters. Individuals battling cancer may opt to take an alternative approach and focus on creating major lifestyle changes. This lifestyle change may entail complete removal of meat and dairy from their diet. Apparently, this is the action that Jazmine Sullivan’s mother has taken.

Nene Leakes husband, Greg, of RHOA was very open about his cancer battle and audience viewers saw when he opted for an alternative health approach after he had been undergoing chemotherapy for some time. On the show, viewers saw Greg grow weary of chemotherapy. Greg ultimately chose to abide by a holistic health approach and as a result, his stage 3 colon cancer is now in remission.
Too often, black women are not praised when they decide to adopt alternative lifestyles to get healthier, to lose weight or to stay fit. Jazmine Sullivan looks every bit of amazing, yet she received criticism from other black women who thought that she became too thin. She has denounced any desire to be “skinny.”
“Last week some people dragged me saying I look sickly. I’m honestly a size 12. 180 lbs. There’s nothing skinny about me but my neck….I ain’t skinny and that was never my goal.”






Jazmine should know that she does not have to explain herself to these random naysayers. The vegan and vegetarian way is the best way! the most conscious way.


Not only has J Sully decided to get healthier, she is taking a profoundly selfless step in helping to support her mother as she battles with cancer. Jazmine Sullivan is an example that a few of these critiquing women could stand to follow.

Leave the Sea Turtles Alone: Nine Die from Consuming Marine Turtle Meat

Image
Nine individuals passed away from consumption of endangered marine turtles in Pemba Island, Zanzibar last month.  A total of eight children and one adult died due to chelonitoxism or food poisoning from the contaminated turtle meat.  Death from chelonitoxication is thought to be a rare happening and is mostly associated with consuming marine turtles such as Green sea turtle, Hawksbill turtle, Olive Ridley and Leatherback turtles.    Consumption of sea turtles is considered a delicacy in remote places and African countries such as Tanzania and Madagascar, French Polynesia and Indo-Pacific regions.  The sea meat is usually consumed at celebratory gatherings.  The individuals who cook and consume marine turtles are unable to decipher if the meat is toxic because the marine turtles appear healthy and do not display any symptoms.  The chelonitoxins cannot be destroyed through heat or cooking.  The chelonitoxism that occurs in marine turtles are due to environmental factors which may include

Octavia Spencer plays Mother Earth in Apple Commercial. Keeping Apple in Check!

Image
Apple premiered their yearly Apple Event introducing the new Apple Series 9 Apple Watch and the iPhone 15 standard, plus and pro models.  During the event, a commercial was premiered featuring Octavia Spencer, Tim Cook (CEO of Apple), Lisa Jackson (VP of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives.  This funny commercial saw Octavia present herself as “Mother Nature,” a stern yet comical corporate responsibility officer.  Before Octavia entered the scene, all the officers and workers at the meeting were shuffling around looking nervous and anxious while drinks shook on the table.   We even saw Tim Cook rehearsing the lines that he would repeat to Mother Nature when she entered.   After Mother Nature arrives, Tim Cook, asks her “how was the weather getting in?” Mother Nature then says, “the weather was however I wanted it to be!”   Mother nature reminds Mr. Cook of his promise in 2020—which is to bring Apple’s carbon footprint to zero by 2030. As the commercial ensued, the viewer learns
