Taraji Henson shines in Tyler Perry's 'I Can Do Bad All By Myself
2009-09-21 04:27:00 Tyler Perry's "I Can Do Bad All By Myself" movie poster A little bit over two years ago today, I wrote "TV Review: Tyler Perry critics complain about Madea and his plots," and at the time, I truly was entertained by Tyler Perry's character Madea. However, all good things must come to an end. I just left the movie theater, and I didn't even watch the end credits with the jokes from Madea and her brother, Joe. I heard people cracking up laughing listening to the jokes from Madea, but considering I'd already seen the play version of "I Can Do Bad All By Myself," I found the jokes to be a little lame. The plot is indeed...

Academy Award-nominees Viola Davis and Taraji P. Henson have both proven that when you know your worth, no one can take it from you. At the 81st annual Oscar ceremony, the two found themselves waiting to win the same award for best supporting actress. While the audience applauded for Penelope Cruz, they both shared in a symbolic moment that still remains dear. ?We looked right at each other, we connected,? says Henson, talking about when she blew Davis a kiss during the commercial break. ?We had to have that moment, just for each other, to let each other know, ?You know what? It?s still all good.??

TARAJI HENSON COVERS MONARCH MAGAZINE
2009-04-19 23:59:00 Taraji P. Hensen has been told that she has the eyes of Betty Davis, the spitfire personality of Debbie Allen and the stage presence of the inimitable Ms. Ruby Dee. So maybe that?s why this versatile starlet has no problem taking her roles from the hustling streets to the majestic throne. She is no doubt one of the most exciting breakthrough actresses of this generation.On Playing Different RolesUltimately, there is no role too tough for the free-spirited Hensen to play. From her role as a pimp?s pregnant girlfriend in ?Hustle and Flow? to the career oriented, high acheiving, sales professional in ?Not Easily Broken?, she has transitioned flawlessly between the characters. Her portrayal of ?Queenie? in ?The Curious Case of Benjamin Button? even had the moviegoers believing it was possible to love such an ugly, odd-looking baby. That carefully crafted portayal led to an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actress. ?I know several actresses who have been locked into a certain...

Here's Donatella Versace looking like she just popped out of the Mos Eisley cantina in the first Star Wars flick after a hard night of drinking with Han and Chewie. Donatella made an appearance at the Versace Men's Line launch party at Barney's New York. Woody Allen, his incest victim, socialite Tinsley Mortimer, Patti LaBelle, and Scissor Sisters front man Jake Shears were also up in that bitch. You know that coat on Patti is real. She probably pointed out which animals she wanted slaughtered. Donatella was recently appointed chairperson of Fashion Fringe.

The Henson Trust: An Important Estate Planning Tool for Families that inclu
2008-01-05 20:56:00 Ram, the author of The Canadian Capitalist blog, recently wrote on the new RDSP program (Registered Disability Savings Plan) being offered by the government. I left a comment on the discussion mentioning that Henson Trusts are also worth looking at if you or someone you know has a family member who qualifies for Disability Support from the Government. Ram proposed that I write up a post on it, and I am dutifully obliging! :)Here it is in a nutshell:To qualify for Disability Support from the Government in the form of either payments or access to certain benefits (e.g. dental benefits, eye glasses, guide dog allowance, etc.) requires that you fall below certain income and asset levels. If you have too much income or too many assets, your assistance is reduced or cut-off altogether.If someone closely related to the disabled person dies and leaves their estate to the disabled person, the inheritance may violate the eligibility to receive further support (since the assets/income may be t...

Brooke Henson - new details!
2007-11-04 04:39:00 There are major new details tonight in the unsolved disappearances of Brooke Henson, a mystery that has remained with no clues for eight years until now. The murder of Brooke Henson will be featured tonight on America’s Most Wanted and then on 48 Hours next Saturday. New information is suggesting that the woman who stole Brooke Henson’s identity may perhaps be involved in her disappearance. For eight years, detectives could not solve what happened to Brooke Henson. She went to get a pack of cigarettes early July 4th 1999 and was never seen again. But last year, Esther Reed reportedly stole Henson’s identity, getting college loans at Columbia University. “The matter of Esther Reed has been an interesting distraction. It’s brought a lot of media attention to the case and it’s given us help we may otherwise not have had. If ultimately Esther Reed’s distraction can bring resolution to this case, then it was a welcome distraction,” said In...
