Celebrating PURIM! We remember Esther,a courageous woman who saved a whole nation.

@Emmmavic The dunce of a boy that slapped and pushed a girl like he did humbled Judge Judy? The same who doesn't know his tenses? He and the mom were duly humiliated

Judge Judy gets humbled

@wingheart What's she yapping about? Most of us grew up with J5,TJ,and the mega star MJ before she was even ruminated

@jsugarfootm You are a world treasure

“Human Nature”. Never released rehearsal audio from my private collection of tapes. #michaeljackson

@LiberianGirl779 Diana was too old and too tall for Dorothy

"The funniest thing that happened was when we were doing a scene on the roof top. Diana was supposed to faint and I had to pick her up. But she was too heavy. I kept puffing away until I finally made it." 😂😂😂😂😂

@_______Collins So insightful that his centering African men only, like their loneliness is a default.

He’s actually making a lot of sense… but the way he’s mixing American accent with Pidgin is kiłłing me 😭😂

@TiffanyFong Jealous you're not as good looking?

who the fuck are these people

@NormalIslandNws Clearly this is sarcasm

Huge concern in New York that Zohran Mamdani is spending $122 million on schools and hiring 1,000 school teachers when that money could be buying bombs for Israel

@Adordev_ @TaraBull Who's "we"?

@TaraBull Hollywood branding is a masterclass in distraction. Look at his hand, that looks 80. While the media focuses on the beret, the reality is in the details. Why do we celebrate disconnection from reality? We need more authenticity in this industry.

John Travolta, 72, looks unrecognizable at Cannes The 72-year-old showed up in a cream beret, round glasses, sharp beard & black suit for his directorial debut premiere

QED

@isbilliejean Both could have gone without foundation. Donna had gorgeous skin and MJ,'s zits disappeared in his late teens

odeio essas maquiagens de antigamente pq sempre erravam o tom em pele escura e ficava esse trem esbranquiçado

@synaestatic By "we learned" he meant them YT media circulated fabricated tabloid junks about MJ. Have you ever noticed that Blacks don't do that

gosto mto de como o entrevistador fica visivelmente nervoso quando o marlon se inclina pra frente e manda ele repetir o que falou do mj

@iH8Meccavellii Oh you think your ox blood 🐂 hair is?

This what jack harlow think he giving but not

@CCPISASSH0E People should leave John Travolta alone! Never ends well, see how it affected Michael Jackson. Not everyone is Cher or Madonna or the Kardashians who could stomach criticisms

Ok, maybe I’m a weirdo, but I don’t understand all the hating on John Travolta today. He’s 72 years old! He looks better than most of the people who are trashing him tbh

@aakashgupta Janet and Randy never experienced scrappy Joe,but an older less menacing. They were too young back then

Janet Jackson exists. That's the entire answer most people miss. Same parents. Same Gary, Indiana household. Same Joe Jackson childhood. She's the only artist in Billboard Hot 100 history to land 7 top-5 singles from one album (Rhythm Nation 1814). She holds the female record for consecutive top-10 entries at 18. Five Grammys. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, 2019. A pop monster on her own terms. The talent ceiling argument dies on her career alone. What separated Michael was the team he assembled the second he could. In 1980, right after Off the Wall, Michael hired John Branca. Branca's first major move was firing Joe Jackson from his son's business affairs, by fax. Joe had been running the business side of all six Jackson brothers since the Motown years. Michael then stacked the rest of the operation. Quincy Jones to produce. Rod Temperton to write ("Rock With You," "Thriller," "Off the Wall"). Frank DiLeo to manage. Every one of them a peak operator in their lane. Off the Wall (1979): 20 million sold. Thriller (1982): 70+ million, still the best-selling album in history. Bad (1987): 35 million. ATV Music Publishing purchased in 1985 for $47.5M. Sony bought the estate's 50% stake in 2016 for $750M. Janet ran the same play in a different city. She walked into Flyte Tyme Studios in Minneapolis in 1985 and handed her career to Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Control hit 14 million worldwide. Rhythm Nation 12 million. Janet., another 14 million. Jermaine actually proved the thesis once. He linked up with Stevie Wonder for "Let's Get Serious" in 1980. The song went #1 R&B for 6 weeks and beat Michael's "Rock With You" as the soul hit of the year. He just never built the full stack. Stayed at Motown, married Berry Gordy's daughter, ran on family-favor production. The other brothers stayed inside the family business under Joe's management. They had real Epic-era hits ("Shake Your Body," "Can You Feel It"). They never broke out at Michael's scale. Two Jackson siblings reached immortality. Both did the same thing. They fired the dad and hired the best team money could rent.

@Rimmesfk This woman has not improved herself in any way since. Not her style, not in cooking, not in speeches,absolutely nothing. She hasn't learned anything at all

Royal sycophants: wow Kate spoke to them in Italian, she speaks fluent Italian cos she did a year in Florence is there anything this woman can’t do bla bla? Real life video: Kate: I can’t speak Italian. Can you teach me something, what’s the Italian word for tree 🤦🏾‍♀️

@Maryfields32861 @Ducnghia16 Aretha peaked as a slim singer, she only gained weight later in life in the late 80s

Too bad people focused on her size. They missed her incredible voice. She was so amazing

@Ducnghia16 That's not true at all! Size and looks weren't a thing in those days for singers

@SussexHenryVIII @sotan_07its I thought I was being shallow not focusing

@sotan_07its And the invasion of plastic surgery on literally everybody. Don’t @ me for this and I actually liked the movie but I found Ryan Gosling’s work pretty distracting during Project Hail Mary. Like this supposedly anxious science teacher has had work done on his face. No

We watched Alien when they put it back into theaters a few years ago and I was taken aback by how normal the crew looks and how much it helps with overall immersion.

@george22443 @olesoul57_2 There weren't "ghetto" till the 90s in African American community. We dressed like we were going to church

@olesoul57_2 La Toya is a stereotypical 'ghetto' name yet La Toya Jackson was one of the most highfalutin, saditty Blk woman in pop culture. Interesting dichotomy

🤔Somebody said: Latoya Jackson gotta be the first Latoya. Katherine and Joe might’ve made that up. I don’t know a Latoya older than her.
