Jada Pinkett-Smith recently graced Atlanta media with her presence at her ‘Magic Mike XXL’ press conference at the St. Regis Hotel in Atlanta, G.A.
‘Magic Mike XXL’ reunites Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez and Gabriel Iglesias, who were all stars of the 2012 worldwide hit ‘Magic Mike.’ Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, “Magic Mike XXL” finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blow-out performance.
Pinkett-Smith took a moment to discuss her role as Rome, it originally being written for Jamie Foxx, her view of adult entertainment, her blessed sex life, embracing the term MILF, and much more!
Jada shared that she loved that she had all of the freedom to create her character Rome. She even had influence with Rome’s wardrobe as she wanted it to command a balance between a sense of power all while still being accessible to the masculine, but being able to relate to the women. She expressed that the set was one huge party as sexual energy brings joy, and happens to be a gateway to the soul and to creativity. She went on to explain that basking in that energy was so much fun as it was joyous beautiful communication.
Pinkett-Smith shared that the role of Rome was originally written for a guy, and it was written with Jamie Foxx in mind. When it came down to it there were scheduling conflicts, and Tatum called Jada and expressed that he always envisioned a woman as the emcee. She explained that she was impressed with Tatum’s desired to bring a sense of responsibility to the world of adult entertainment.
Jada also expressed that she had some reservations with taking the role because of her work with human trafficking. She realized in her human trafficking advocacy that this industry is going to exist, so she rather bring responsibility to it than shut it down or act like it doesn’t exist. She wanted Rome to be an example that a woman can operate from a place of respect and integrity even in a sexually charged environment. Jada also embraced being considered a MILF at age 45. She explained that it’s nice to see that an older woman can still be viewed as attractive. In fact she went on to say that she believes as older women they get more attractive. She elaborated saying that when you are younger you are worried about image and the outside, and when you grow older it’s your wisdom that makes you attractive. I love the idea that people can still see an older woman as attractive.
Jada wasn’t shy about discussing her sex life. She explained that she had a blessed life, and this came with a twist. Her blessed sex life came as a result of her grandmother’s teaching of sex education. She also touched on Michael Strahan’s role in the film.
“I told him, you’ve got everybody else fooled thinking football was your only career. When this movie comes out there’s some tapes somewhere (that’s going to come out), this is not your first rodeo.”
The film is in theaters today! Make sure you check it out and let us know your thoughts!

After reports surfaced that Rich Homie Quan ditched the BET Awards after being demoted from performing at the ceremony to the red carpet, he has decided to set the record straight. During a sit down with San Francisco KMEL radio Shay Diddy, the “Feel Some Type of Way” rapper said he never had a screaming match with any BET executives.
“We did not have a big ol’ argument,” said the 25-year-old. “Yesterday, I was here doing interviews and stuff like that. The time they say everything could’ve transpired, I was in the air on a plane, had my documents. I had my lawyers to reach out. I have no bad blood towards BET.”

Kanye’s kicks are all the craze – The Yeezy 750 Boost. This much I know…even though I’m not out here buying them. Young Thug dropped a weird little gem in a recent interview with Rolling Out Magazine. He told the publication that Kanye copped him some Yeezys on EBAY….yeah Ebay! I guess he doesn’t have a stash or something lying around? Maybe he just…wanted to impress the young androgynous rapper.
The Game is very active on his Instagram account and loves documenting every aspect of his life. Whether it’s his fatherhood experiences or his getting released from jail, it is all laid out on his IG. Now, the “Celebration” rapper has to pay for one post that his former nanny, Karen Monroe, claims sent her into a deep depression. A judge has ordered that Game pay his former nanny $200,000 after he did not respond to a lawsuit filed by Monroe accusing him on libel on Instagram, ABC reports.
In 2013 post, the Compton rep ranted about firing Monroe for “being caught lying, stealing, screaming at my kids, mistreating others kids & doing very inappropriate and unbecoming things of a baby sitter.” He claimed that she had had sexual intercourse in his daughter’s bedroom and that he had found a used condom as proof an that she also smoked and drank while babysitting his children. Game also mentioned that Monroe allegedly had a past of inappropriately touching children.

Monroe filed the lawsuit in July 2013 accusing Game of defamation and intentional infliction of emotional stress. Monroe’s lawyer. Manu Ellioe, said that millions of Game’s followers saw the post and she lost her job as the nanny for Nas and Kelis’ son because of his allegations. She said she also received death threats and had to be treated for going into a great depression because of it.

“ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! & Beware of this woman Karen Monroe!!!!!! Her Instagram is @karyn27 & I have blocked her from all three of my IG accounts!!! She was my children’s sitter up until last year & FIRED for being caught lying, stealing, screaming at my kids, mistreating others kids & doing very inappropriate and unbecoming things of a baby sitter… she was fired by me for those things & after she was BUSTED having sex with her then boyfriend and leaving a used condom & the wrapper in my daughter’s room!!! She currently baby sits for a few celebrities, most notable Kelis (@sausageandboots) & @nasnyc’s son “Knight” whom she constantly disrespects behind her back to others including my children’s mothers trying to win her graces but she is not allowed to be with or around my children!!! She also neglects their child Knight & leaves him unattended to make runs to Starbucks etc… When the parents are not around. She drinks heavily & smokes around the children & sometimes drops them off to be baby sat at others without the parent’s consent. After hearing some of the things said about Kelis & how she s referred to is not repeatable here due to its unjust nature!!!… I’ve asked by children several times & luckily none of them were abused by this callous individual… She will read this I’m sure so I would like to say… YOU ARE NEVER ALLOWED ANYWHERE AROUND MY CHILDREN AS LONG AS YOU BREATHE & IF YOU ARE CAUGHT ANYWHERE AROUND THEM IT WILL BE THE WORST DAY OF YOUR F#CKING LIFE!!! PS VERY CONCERNED FATHER!!! #REPOST AND SPREAD THE WORD PEOPLE… DO NOT LET ANY OTHER CHILDREN BECOME HER VICTIM!!!” – See more at: http://hiphopwired.com/2015/06/30/the-game-loses-200k-libel-lawsuit-against-former-nanny/#sthash.Y4nGguhp.dpuf
