Growing up, Steel Magnolias was one of my favorite movies. Who can forget Julia Roberts’ amazing portrayal of character Shelby Lynn? That brilliant performance catapulted her career right before our eyes.
That’s why I’m so excited to see how our talented BG actresses: Jill Scott, Alfre Woodard, Queen Latifah, Phylicia Rashad, and Adepero Oduye will remake and interpret the original 1989 big-screen film.
Premiering Sunday, Oct 7 on Lifetime, I’m sure the women will put their own spin on the Louisianna-set Southern tale of strong female bonds.

Are you looking forward to watching this made-for-TV reboot on Lifetime?
My neck of the woods has been all abuzz since the Barclays Center opened last week. I live just three blocks from the brand-new Brooklyn arena and have never felt so much energy in my Park Slope neighborhood.
Every night that hip-hop icon, Jay-Z has taken center-stage, the excitement from patrons and neighbors is palpable. While I’m not a fan of rap concerts I do kind of feel like I’m missing out on a memorable event taking place right in my own backyard!
Lucky for me and others who couldn’t make it to the sold-out 8-night concert, we can watch Jay-Z’s final show live in conjunction with the launch of his new Life+Times’ YouTube Channel tomorrow, Oct. 6!
The conclusion of his concert run will be live-streamed on the channel which has teamed up with IconicTV at 9:30 p.m EST. The new channel will continue to serve as a platform for the mogul’s many passions including music, art, and style.
Check out the trailer:
