Letoya Luckett and Rob Hill Postpone Marraige


Bossip.com:
Even though the duo just announced their engagement back in April, LeToya Luckett and Rob Hill, Sr. have decided that now just isn’t the right time for them to move forward into a marriage.

Thankfully, it doesn’t appear that there’s any ill will between the two and no dirty dog antics that led to the split…but according to Rob, just an issue of timing. As he shared with The Fam Morning Show:
“We have a beautiful relationship. We’re not getting married at this point because we understand each other as friends, the right way. There are certain things she needs to do for herself, and there are certain things I need to do.”
Well, at least this couple knows what’s best for them. Hopefully they can come back together and make it work when and if the time is right…

Kelly Rowland Promoted Her Upcoming Make-Up Line For Chocolate Girls At Beautycon


ESSENCE.com:
Kelly Rowland is busier than ever and the singer and former Destiny’s Child member was at Beautycon Festival in LA over the weekend promoting her upcoming makeup line for chocolate girls. She looked summer fresh with a romantic lacy top and skirt and paired it with nude heel sandals. She looked perfect as was with her business partner, makeup artist Sheika Daley and had this to say about the new line, ““We’re coming out with a makeup line called Face. It started off with lashes, but it’s starting to grow bigger than that. We can’t wait to supply women out there with our line — with a Face.”

Kelly is one of the newest celebs branching out of her known talents that brought her fame to other areas due to high success. She’s a makeup diva and always shines on the red carpet with her hair, clothing and of course makeup.  Women, especially black women look up to Kelly and her lovely looks as traditionally, black girls are often overlooked in the area of beauty especially with makeup. Finding the right foundations, hues, and range of colors has been a long-standing problem. The buzz surrounding her upcoming line has been good and she was all smiles and full of confidence at Beautycon festival.

Solange Knowles Shares Why She Joined a Black Bank


TheRoot.com:
Solange Knowles isn’t just talking about it, she’s being about it when it comes to supporting black businesses. The singer recently shared her reasons why she decided to join a black-owned bank.

“While I realize this is a very personal decision and thing to share, I’m proud to say I made that step today,” Solange said on Instagram. “Time to literally put my money where my mouth is.”

Solange posted a link from a 2013 HBCU Money article that listed a number of black-owned banks in the U.S. Although she advised that she couldn’t vouch for the banks listed, it’s pretty safe to say that with $4.7 billion in assets, these banks aren’t mom-and-pop institutions.
