Hey Lovers,
As you know I’ve been obsessed with all things beauty lately. The other day my good girlfriend Esta Fiesta over at livingfiesta.com tagged me asking if I would join her on a challenge. I couldn’t see the details immediately but my first thought was “Challenge? Sure, Brooklyn don’t budge.” Then I got the details; sigh. The challenge is a lipstick challenge. Continue reading
Hello Lovers,
My birthday was earlier this month. I knew I wanted to get everything I had been eyeing from Sephora. In an attempt to behave like an adult I decided to refrain from all unnecessary makeup purchases until my birthday. Above is a picture of me rocking The Color of the Year, Radiant Orchid. Below is a video of all the things I got.

Hey Lovers,
Monday night my social life impacted my social media life so I was unable to watch Love & Hip Hop live with you. Then my router died; it’s all too much, I know.
Let me begin by letting you know that this episode really drained me. Honestly, if it was not for all my beautiful readers I am not sure that I would’ve been able to endure the entire episode.
I don’t know how many times I have to say this, but I really need Shay the hoodrat bandit to go. Every week her attitude and weave get worse and I’m not here for it.
I am sure we still agree that Baby Bop and the Redbone need to go too. I don’t understand how Baby Bop claims to be over Redbone when about 5 episodes ago we saw her try to fight some random girl and later gave him 25 racks for his wannabe Jimmy Jazz dream. I don’t understand why Redbone was wearing Lil Wayne’s outfit with George Jefferson’s jacket. I don’t understand why Baby Bop’s boyfriend was wearing a hooded vest. I don’t understand what club would hire both of them for the same night. The only thing I understand is why that club was so empty.
As far as Scrappy going to jail, is anyone surprised? I am glad Ms. Mona showed the scene with his daughter. Maybe some of the dudes who are watching VH1 and not reporting to their probation officers are paying attention to how that kind of nonsense impacts children. While I am glad we saw that scene did it not break your heart when Emani said something about her friend who went to see his father in jail? As much as I am tempted to go on rant about Black America as a result of that scene; I won’t. By the way, am I the only one NOT surprised that Mama Dee has been to jail?
I had a comment about Mimi & Michelle’s meeting but their meeting was so boring I forgot.
Do you see it for Joseline & Stevie J in a “normal” relationship? I know a pig is pork but I don’t know what Stevie J is. I’ve said before that Joseline needs to give lessons because she went from strip club jump off to demanding a proposal. It actually amazes me. A couple weeks ago, Media Takeout “reported” that Joseline & Stevie J tied the night in Puerto Rico. If that is in fact true, I know we will all be tuned in because I’m sure the Molly the Maid shade will be at epic levels.
I’m glad we didn’t see or hear from Ariane and Karline. Do we agree, they’re not missed?
Benzino and Kirk really tap danced on my last good nerve with their fake country weekend. First of all, I didn’t know Bobby Valentino liked women so his appearance surprised me. Is he still in the music business? If not, he needs to call Tiarra Marie to see how she got the “unemployed friend” role on the NY cast. The sight of that pile of Walmart looking panties on the card table almost made me physically sick. Am I the only one who got the sense that Mary Jane was on Molly? She had to be on something if she wanted to menage with Kirk’s tired ass. I had to pause my DVR to figure out who was wearing a furry snapback in Georgia. I shouldn’t have been surprised that it was Bambi but I was. Bambi lost what little shimmer she did have by putting her lips on Benzino. That whole house was an orgy of mediocrity and poor ideas.
This episode makes me look forward to the season finale because I really do not know how much more I can endure.

Hey Lovers,
Tuesday night gave us the premiere of Catfish MTV Season 2. We met Cassandra who thought she was in love with an aspiring rapper named Steve from Atlanta.
The first question I have for this season is, where were these people season 1? Did they not watch season and do their Google image search? I was sure that after Season 1 and Manti Teo, “catfish” the verb would be a thing of the past. Cassandra proved me wrong.
For those of you who did not watch, log off now because the rest of this may be a spoiler and I don’t want you to say I didn’t warn you.
At first, I was distracted by Cassandra’s awful wig but as she began to tell her story I realized Cassandra’s issues are bigger than a horrible synthetic wig. Any time you start an email with “I need you to help me meet my fiancee,” there is a problem to say the least.
I’m no geographer but last I checked Florida and Atlanta are not that far a part. You mean to tell me that in 2 years the fact you never met your online lover in person isn’t alarming?
Let’s fast forward to the big reveal. As you probably guessed, “Steve” wasn’t who he said he was. Not only was “Steve” not the person who Cassie thought he was, “Steve” was actually Cassie’s best friend, Gladys, and her cousin. According to Gladys she developed this fake guy for Cassie because Cassie turned into a big hot mess after her dad got murdered in Haiti. In order to fully perpetrate the fraud, Gladys enlisted her male cousin to have phone sex with Cassie, as Steve. Has Gladys never heard of an intervention? It really did look like Gladys wanted the best for her friend but I’m confused as to how luring her into a fake online relationship was a good idea. It does sound like Cassie made her vagina less friendly as a result of her relationship with “Steve” which is good. However she is no longer close Gladys; that said, I’m wondering if it’s worth it. You stopped your friend from being a buss down but now you’ve lost your friend.
Overall, this episode was crazy enough to make me want to see more so, I will be tuning in next week.

Hey Lovers,
As a result of our fun on Mondays, Thursdays and sometimes Sundays I’ve been offered the chance to help promote a Day Party next month in DC for Delta’s Centennial. If you live in DC or will be in area on July 13th please join me! Did I mention Laz Alonso will be there?

Dearest Ray-J,
I can’t say I’m a fan but then again, who can? From your most recent stunt it’s clear you need someone with sense to speak to you and I’m happy to do it!
The title of your upcoming single “I hit it first” with a pixelated picture of Kim Kardashian really baffles me. Why do you feel the need to diss a pregnant woman?
Have you heard of Kenya Moore? Google her and read about the “Kenya Moore Problem” here https://rantraverandom.com/2013/02/21/diane-dixons-kenya-moore-problem/. The fact you feel the need to make a song about your pregnant ex-girlfriend literally 10 years after the fact let’s me know you’re not having great ideas this year.
Let’s review a few things in case you don’t get my post. The video was made in 2003 and released in 2007. You’ve done several reality shows since that time. Kim K has done at least 99 seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians and its various spin offs as well as Dancing With the Stars. You were rumored to have messed with a singing show contestant as well as the late great Whitney Houston. Kim has dated Reggie Bush, her bodyguard and Miles Austin. Her second marriage started & ended and we know her status with Kanye West. Do you see where I’m going? You’ve both done plenty of living since your split.
I also have an issue with the actual title “I hit it first” sounds like something a rapper would say when he’s talking about how easily he smutted Erica Mena after buying her 3 glasses of Moscato. You and Kim K were in a relationship and as the video shows, in edition to hitting it first you also beat it raw and ate it first too. Don’t act tough now; we have receipts .
To end this I’m just going to give you a couple recommendations. You can thank me later.
If you have any questions feel free to DM me @RantRaveRandom.
That altercation was too much. After giving her “you helped me come up speech” Evelyn turned out Mr. Chow’s in front of all those White folks. She has to stop. She’s on TV; not Fordham Road. Out of all this, I think I’m Team Jen. I used to be Team Ev all the way because you always need a friend who cleans up nicely but can still whoop ass just in case a hoe gets out of line but she’s taken it overboard. There’s no need to turn out everywhere you go. I’m looking forward to next week because it’s sure to be filled with more things hoodrat.
Is there anything I forgot? Please let me know.

I don’t desire to be the next Perez Hilton because I don’t sit around that much. I don’t have any juicy gossip, go check Natasha @theybf.com for that. Also, I don’t desire to have a reality show. This is exactly what it says, MY rants, raves and random thoughts. Hope you enjoy!
