The Braxton sisters have served up drama and laughs since last November’s season 2 premiere of ‘Braxton Family Values‘. 

Yet, as the age old adage goes, all good things must come to an end. And an end the show draws to this Thursday.

Episode 19 of the show (the finale) series sees Trina confront her sisters for not supporting her, Toni break news to her the family, Tamar and Vince talk having kids, and more.

Savagely honest, in your face, and insanely funny, ‘The Boondocks’ rocked the Urban arena upon launching in 2005. And for three seasons served up laughs and critical reflection in earnest.

However, 2009 saw the hit series wrap with a bang – after its most stinging season yet (see: Tyler Perry).

And though that was purported to be its final curtain call, speculation has mounted in the years following about a Boondocks revival.

Indeed, cast-members and those affiliated with the Sony Pictures production have routinely teased a comeback. A comeback which is growing increasingly likely, as per the words actress Regina King recently.

80’s TV drama ‘21 Jump Street’ is given a comedy makeover for its big screen remake.

Starring Channing Tatun, Jonah Hill, and Hip-Hop legend Ice Cube, the film follows a pair of underachieving cops, who are sent back to a local high school to blend in and bring down a synthetic drug ring.

Continuing YouTube‘s viral trend of hilariously exploiting the most stereotypical aspects of race, homosexuality and celebrity culture comes a brand new video tiled, ‘Sh*t Beyonce Says’.

Not only is the video dead-on accurate in capturing the ‘Ring The Alarm’ singer’s charm and mannerisms but the actress playing the role nailed her lines perfectly. Specifically, “Jay, where are you? You with Kanye? Y’all in Paris?! …That shit cray.” Dead.

Keep in mind this video is all in good fun! Enjoy and sound-off below.

Maia Campbell, 35, is best known for her role as the mocha skinned beauty with the long dark hair on LL Cool J‘s ‘In The House’, playing “Tiffany”. Sadly after ‘In The House’ was cancelled Campbell found herself on hard times turning a little dibbling and dabbling into a full-blown cocaine addiction.

Now clean and sober, the actress/singer finally looks as if she’s ready to get back into the driver’s seat and take control. We here at ‘TGJ’ wish Miss Cambpell all the best in her future career endeavors!

We have to give it up to Khia.

Despite not having had a hit in over 10 years (and that one being her only one), the self proclaimed ‘Queen of Hood Media’ has somehow managed to keep her name out there. Thanks, largely, to her video blogs – the latest of which debuted today.

Fling open those curtains, because Ms. Khia is throwing shade left and right. Victims this go round include Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Cassie, Diddy, and a whole lot more!

Turning 40 often spells the end for many a talented actress (see: age bias). However, Gabrielle Union is proving that, as she nears the big 4-0, she will not be held down.

Reality TV is big business these days, just ask NeNe Leakes and Kim Kardashian.

The pair, who have carved out lucrative careers from their respective shows – Real Housewives of Atlanta and Keeping Up With The Kardashians – were snapped out dining in the A yesterday.

Leakes, who infamously declared “I’m very rich, b*tch”, must be keen to show that she’s “new money”, as Kardashian – for all her lack of  talent – remains one of Hollywood’s most talked-about entities.
