“I want to know if my hair is just like yours,” he told Mr. Obama, so quietly that the president asked him to speak again.
Jacob did, and Mr. Obama replied, “Why don’t you touch it and see for yourself?” He lowered his head, level with Jacob, who hesitated.
“Touch it, dude!” Mr. Obama said.
As Jacob patted the presidential crown, … [White House photographer Pete] Souza snapped.
“So, what do you think?” Mr. Obama asked.
“Yes, it does feel the same,” Jacob said.

I’ve been gone for a minute but I couldn’t let this one go without a small rant…
What the hell!!!! Was this planned???? This must be a PR stunt!!!!! I have so much to say but I don’t know where to start. There are so many people to be blamed! Just so I don’t go on a loooonnnnngggg rant about this…I’m only going to make two simple statements:
1) No one should wear a skin-tight cat suit. Not Fantasia. Not Chaka Kahn. Not Nicki Minaj. I don’t care how many sequins and studs you glue onto it, it always looks hooker-ish (I know this from first-hand experience).
2) Fantasia and Chaka Kahn do not have any true friends. Even if their stylists dropped the ball, you’re telling me no one from their entourage could pull them aside to say, “No, I will not let you go out in public dressed like this!”
SMH…I can’t with these people! Just ridiculous!
M.I.A. & THE BIRD - Maybe the media has desensitized me… but I don’t think this is a big deal. I have seen children acting wayyyyy more disrespectful to their parents in public than M.I.A.’s middle finger. If there was a big issue why didn’t they censor it (wasn’t it a superbowl incident that started the 5 sec delay anyways). They need to stop being so sensitive over these Superbowl shows… soon great performers aren’t going to do the halftime show in fear of all the scrutiny.
The music industry grew morals overnight - Let’s all applaud BET for standing up for what’s right! But really, where have they been??? What about all the other videos with questionable lyrics and images. Did they see Nicki’s Super Bass and Dance(A$$) videos? I’m confused…not to mention why they feel the need to censor the female artist while males have been doing this for years.
That’s one small step for men’s underwear, one giant leap for women’s imagination!

I heard they compare her to Nicki Minaj…are they crazy??? That’s like comparing a real Louis Vuitton to one of those cheap fakes that everyone has. Congratulations AZEALIA BANKS on your deal with Universal Music!
Wait…this is America right??? The land of the free, right??? Oh…just checking. I agree that piracy is out of control but let’s find a healthy and creative solution rather than a quick and lazy solution. Once upon a time the entertainment and technology industries used to work together - how quickly things can change.
