The queen of pop and R&B confirms she is pregnant. This time she is expecting twins.
On her official Instagram page, Beyonce announced that she is proud to be carrying two new additions to her family.
"We have been blessed two times," said Beyonce.
Beyonce known also as Queen Bey is married to RocNation media mogul and rapper Jay-Z.
They have a daughter named Blue Ivy.
The world reacts to the news of pop music's biggest star with joy and the trolls of course dog on her for being a vehement supporter of Hillary Clinton and Black Lives Matter.
First time ever, a Black women will appear on a coin.
The U.S. Mint rolls out a new coin. The new $1.00 coin for the first time will feature a Black woman.
The mint will celebrate 225 years by minting this county with Lady Liberty depicted as a Black woman. The 24k gold coin will be the first of a series of coins that will also carry depictions of Asian-American, Hispanic-American, and Indian-American women, says the U.S. Mint.
The last gold coin was Sacagawea, the Native American woman who helped Meriwether Lewis and William Clark through the rugged United States. The last dollar coin was Susan B. Anthony, an American activist who fought for voting rights for women.
Then of course, our past presidents were on the dollar coins as well. The current living presidents and soon to be fuhrer won't be added on coins until death.
Gwen Ifill, the host of PBS Newshour and Washington Week passed away.
We've lost a legend.
Gwen Ifill, the host of PBS NewsHour had passed away today of cancer. She was 61 years old. A remarkable woman of color who covered Washington, DC like no other. She was at the forefront of a journalism vanguard as a Black woman in a field dominated by white men.
She co-hosted NewsHour with Judy Woodruff and broke ground by being an all-female anchor team on a network nightly news.
Gwen was the daughter of Caribbean immigrants. She wanted to cover the news since the younger ages. She was a native of New York City. She grew up in Jamaica, Queens. She was the fifth of six children.
She was the host of Washington Week and worked both positions. She had an opportunity to gain national recognition as a debate moderator.
She hosted two vice presidential debates. She hosted the 2004 debate between then Vice President Dick Cheney and then senator John Edwards. She also had an opportunity to host the 2008 debate between then senator Joe Biden and then Alaskan governor Sarah Palin.
Back in 2007, bigot talker Don Imus was caught up in scandal where he called the Rutgers women's basketball team a bunch of "nappy headed hos". He called Gwen Ifill the "cleaning lady".
She handled this with such class.
She had covered the White House and Congress and was praised from both sides of the political aisle.
She took a month long leave from PBS without disclosing her medical condition. I am guessing she had terminal uterine cancer.
President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence came out with condolences today.
Beyonce made a surprise appearance at the Country Music Awards to perform a duet with The Dixie Chicks, Wednesday.
The queen of pop and the country music trio started off their set by giving a shout out to Texas. They all grew up in Texas. They collaborated for a remix to Daddy Lessons. The album comes from Lemonade, the visual album.
The audience were on their feet when Queen Bey performed.
Many country music stations refuse to play the song because they don't believe it's a country music song.
The song went viral. Now it's streaming its way to Billboard's top spot in not only mainstream but country.
Many in the audience didn't expect Beyonce to appear at the awards. Brad Paisley confirmed Queen Bey's appearance in the second hour of the show.
Media shakeup. AT&T is purchasing Time Warner, Inc.
Media titians AT&T and Time Warner may merge if the deal goes according to plan. The $85.4 billion on the table could lead to one of the biggest media mergers ever.

Today would mark the 15 years since the world lost a R&B singer Aaliyah.
On August 25, 2001, the hip-hop community lost an iconic R&B singer. Aaliyah Dana Haughton was killed in a fatal plane crash. After finishing a music video shoot her single "Rock The Boat", the singer, her publicist, two members of Blackground Records, and her body man passed away in a ill-fated flight leaving the Bahamas.
Aaliyah's death came unexpected. She released her self-titled album that year and was promoting her movie Romeo Must Die. She was heading back to Los Angeles for a role for the horror Queen of the Damned.
Aaliyah released her first album at the age of 16. Age Ain't Nothing But A Number was produced by R. Kelly, the controversial R&B singer who had an alleged relationship with her at the age of 15.
R. Kelly produced her album and helped her gain mainstream success. R. Kelly had married Aaliyah for a brief moment but it was annulled after allegations of the singer's history.
Aaliyah teamed up with Virginia producer Timbaland and began a great working relationship.
One in a Million became a classic. With Timbaland and Missy Elliott on the album, they produced six singles and gave Aaliyah a four quadruple platinum album.
It also helped her gain success a model, actress and cultural icon.
Her death came unexpected. I mean a few weeks later we would have the worst tragedy to ever happen in our country.
Although I haven't watched the 2016 Olympics in Rio De Janeiro, I want to give big ups to the two young woman who became a part of American history. Two young African American women achieved a goal that others strived for.

It's been a great four years on The Daily Show but the time is now for Jessica Williams to move forward. She announced on social media that she will leave The Daily Show and focus on her comedy podcast 2 Dope Queens.
Jessica is the youngest contributor to The Daily Show. Her announcement was reported by EW.
“I feel so many emotions,” Williams tells EW in an exclusive interview, which you can read in full below. “I feel like I’m growing up and graduating.”
Daily Show host Trevor Noah was similarly bittersweet about the news. “The sadness I have for Jessica leaving is only eclipsed by the joy I have for her starting her new show,” he said in an email. “If her podcast is anything to go by, it’s going to be an exciting show!”
Like a lot of Daily Show talent, Williams was a relative unknown when she joined the show in January 2012. Her debut quickly changed that: At 22, she was not only the youngest correspondent to work on the series but also the first black woman to hold the position. Now 26, she’ll be the first correspondent to step down since Noah took the reins from Jon Stewart nearly a year ago.
The folks over at Comedy Central bid farewell to Jessica.
On Thursday, Trevor Noah and the crew will give Jessica a special tribute to her work on The Daily Show.
Throughout her time at The Daily Show, Jessica laid some impressive and informative satire towards the issues facing Black America.
She boldly took on the issues such as the treatment of unarmed suspects by police, the Fox News Channel, interracial dating and how to deal with professional women in the workplace.
When Jon Stewart retired from The Daily Show, there was speculation that Jessica was going to be the next host. In the movie Hot Tub Time Machine, they had Jessica hosting The Daily Show.
One of the best moments is when Jessica, Wyatt Cynac and Larry Wilmore tore into Softball Hannity, Tucker Carlson and Matt Drudge for deliberately race-baiting in the 2012 U.S. presidential election.
World News Today wishes Jessica Williams well on her journey.
Rihanna releases the eighth album ANTI on the Roc Nation and her Westbury Road label. This would be her first album since she left the Def Jam/Motown label early 2014.
Rihanna spent a couple of years preparing the fans for a masterpiece.
The record was made available for free digital download on January 28 through Tidal; it was released to online music stores for paid purchase on January 29 and is scheduled to be released to physical retailers on February 5.

"Work" was released as the lead single from the record on January 27, 2016. The album will be promoted with the upcoming Anti World Tour, scheduled to begin in February 2016.
This album already was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
The album has only Drake and Top Dawg Entertainment artist SZA.
Rihanna also decided to promote the album on tour. In February, she will have Travis $cott, Big Sean, and Oscar nominated singer The Weeknd join her.
The news broke that R&B legend Natalie Cole passed away,
The entertainment industry lost a legend. Natalie Cole, the daughter of Nat "King" Cole passed away yesterday. Her family confirmed this news today. She helped her dad score a hit. The song "Unforgetable" was a smash hit from the singer.
She passed away at the age of 65 at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles.
Her family said that she was battling health issues. During the 1980s and 1990s, Natalie struggled with heroin and crack addiction. She went into rehab after almost losing her young son Robert.
"Natalie fought a fierce, courageous battle, dying how she lived....with dignity, strength, and honor. Our beloved mother, sister will be greatly missed and remain UNFORGETTABLE in our hearts forever." This was coming from her son Robert Yancy and her sisters Timolin and Casey Cole.
Cole had battled drugs and hepatitits that forced her to undergo a transplant of her kidneys.
Natalie lost her sister Carol who they named "Cookie" when she received a transplant. The brother Nat Kelly died in 1995.
Natalie was inspired by the music of her father. She got into the family business at age 11. She was 15 when her dad died of lung cancer.
She took a road to R&B and smooth jazz. She released her album, "Unforgettable.... With Love" which she dedicated to her dad. She took advantage of some of Nat's lost singles and made them into hits.
Besides "Unforgettable" she also hat "That Sunday That Summer", "Too Young" and "Mona Lisa".
She won six Grammys and sold over 14 million units from that album.
Natalie also took advantage of her acting skills. She appeared as a guest star in Shondra Rhines's Grey's Anatomy. Natalie was a resident of Los Angeles.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Natalie Cole.
The queen rules over tennis. Serena Williams was the Sportsperson of the Year.
The angry concern trolls of the conservative bandwidth are pissed that Sports Illustrated gave its honorary award to tennis icon Serena Williams. They would have rather gave it to the Triple Crown derby horse American Pharaoh.
The Sports Illustrated magazine "Sportsperson of the Year" goes to humans.
But the angry conservative concern trolls believe it's political correctness at its finest.
At least Serena got recognition for her accomplishments. She was close to having an All-Time Grand Slam title but lost in the finals of the U.S. Open.
Let's start with the graceful Serena saying thanks to the folks over at S.I. for giving her the title.
This year was spectacular for me. For SportsIllustrated to recognize my hard work, my dedication,… https://t.co/wsGPJZY7cn
Viola Davis became the first African American woman to win an Emmy for being an Outstanding Lead Actress.
I don't often watch award shows. I find them annoying. I don't like watching them for one reason: Kim Kardashian. She is the reason why I can't stand reality television and celebrity award shows.
The awards shows are given to talent. There's no question for that. But it's unfortunate that her impact on the media has truly "dumb down" celebrity gossip. I mean seriously, I am not into this stuff because the hearsay.
The only thing that drives my attention to awards shows is "first".
Like a historical moment in television or movie history.
Andy Samberg hosted the Emmy Awards last night. The star of Brooklyn Nine-9 hosted the awards show on Fox. Well one actress broke the long standing history of concerns. She became the first actress of color to win an Emmy award for an outstanding lead.
Viola Davis won that award. The star of stage, movies and television became the first African American woman to win the award. She is the breakout character in ABC's How To Get Away With Murder.
Uzo Aduba plays Crazy Eyes on Orange Is The New Black.
Her win broke 70 years of shun actresses of color.
Beginning with a quote from Harriet Tubman, she said, “In my mind, I see a line. And over that line I see green fields and lovely flowers and beautiful white women with their arms stretched out to me over that line, but I can’t seem to get there no-how. I can’t seem to get over that line.”
Then she started looking to the present. “Let me tell you something: The only thing that separates women of color form anyone else is opportunity. You cannot win an Emmy for roles that are simply not there.” So she thanked all of the people who have “redefined what it means to be beautiful, to be sexy, to be a leading woman, to be black.” She then rounded things out by calling out fellow actresses, including Taraji P. Henson (Empire), Kerry Washington (Scandal), Halle Berry (Extent), and more to say “thank you for taking us over that line.”
Viola is known as Annalise Keating, a prosecutor and law professor who plots a sinister scheme with the aid of her naive students. The class How To Get Away with Murder is literally a monster on Thursday nights.
The Shondra Rhimes and Peter Nowalk series returns for season two and it's going to be better.
Viola also got flack from soap actress Nancy Lee Grahn. Grahn took a shot at her win. She hit up social media with complaint that Viola was being racist. Grahn also caught some flack from supporters.
Regina King is an actress who played roles in 227, Boyz In The Hood, Friday, American Crime and The Boondocks.
Grahn apologized on social media and personally called Viola.
Tracy Morgan also made an appearance at the Emmy's. His return came after he survived last year's fatal accident in which his friend Jimmy Mac was killed by a reckless truck driver.
Morgan was a presenter and still managed to keep the crowd rolling with his punchlines.
Morgan was thankful for the well-wishers and promised a return to television and movies soon.
Mad props to Regina King (The Boondocks and American Crime) for winning an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress Limited in Movies and Television and Uzo Aduba (Orange Is The New Black) for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy/Drama.
This will be a memorable moment of Viola, Tracy, Regina and Uzo.

When you hear Better Than You Left Me, you think who is the singer of this beautiful country song?
Well, there's a young Black woman named Mickey Guyton, and her star is rising.
Mickey Guyton (born Candace Mycale Guyton) started her signing career in the church. In her younger days, she wanted to be a gospel singer. But something got her attention. The sounds of country drew her in.
Mickey grew up listening to a variety of artists, including Dolly Parton, LeAnn Rimes, Whitney Houston and gospel innovators BeBe and CeCe Winans. “Those were huge influences,” she says, recalling a particularly pivotal moment. “I was at a Texas Rangers baseball game and LeAnn Rimes was singing the National Anthem. This was right when she came out with ‘Blue’. I was completely mesmerized.”
She would embrace country music and found her heart.
Mickey got a deal with Capitol Records Nashville. It got her the exposure.
She got an opportunity to perform at the White House in 2011 with James Taylor, Dierks Bentley, Kris Kristofferson, The Band Perry, Darius Rucker and Lyle Lovett.
Mickey has been the opening act for Eric Church, Keith Urban, Blake Shelton and many others.
What was remarkable about her is that lovely voice. Her voice hypnotizes me. I got an opportunity to listen to her hit single. I am very impressed with her song. I am a fan.
She is one of the very few Black country music singers. Matter of fact, she is one of the few women of color to embrace a musical genre that usually targets White people.
Gayle King of CBS This Morning had an opportunity to interview her.
World News Today wishes Mickey well on her journey.
U.S. Women's Soccer Team makes far less than their male counterparts.
Random musings...
The U.S. Women's Soccer Team celebrates their amazing victory against Japan in the FIFA Women's World Cup. The team won the week. They are automatically household names.
Sunday's game was watched on Fox by over 25 million viewers.
The team will celebrate in New York today. There will be a hero's celebration in New York after they petitioned for the city for a tinker take parade. Bill de Blasio was willing and even happy to do so.
They already gotten endorsements from national brands.
Carli Lloyd is the hero of the year.
They have inspired women to get involved in sports.
They gotten a call from President Barack Obama.
But did you know that for all their efforts, they only make $2 million and they have to split it equally.
That means that they could walk home with up to $6,000 up to $30,000 respectively.
This is pathetic.
There are calls for lawmakers to pressure FIFA to advocate more reasonable payment to the players.
Misty Copeland is the first African American woman to lead the ABT.
An amazing woman became a part of history. World News Today wishes Misty Copeland well on her journey.
She became the first African American woman to be promoted to principal dancer in American Ballet Theatre's 75-year history after being named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Time the prior month.
The AP reports that Copeland, 32, fought tears as she spoke about her promotion, which she said was a lifetime dream - but such a difficult one to attain that she never really thought it would happen.
"This is it," she said. "This has been my dream since I was 13, to be a principal dancer and reach these heights."
"But it hasn't been overnight," she added at a hastily arranged news conference - a rarity for a ballet promotion. "It's been 14 years of extremely hard work ... I'm just so extremely honored to be an African-American and to be in this position."
And, Copeland said, she hoped her ascension to the very top ranks of ballet would inspire other young dancers of color - "all the little girls" - to stick with their own dreams.
"So many young dancers of color stop dancing at an early age because they just don't think there will be a career path for them," she said. "I hope that will change." She spoke of her own doubts when she joined the ABT corps at age 19 and saw no one "who looked like me."
"I had moments of doubting myself and wanting to quit, because I didn't know if there would be a future for an African-American woman" at that level," she said. "At the same time, it made me so hungry to push through."
The company announced the promotion six days after Copeland made her New York debut as Odette/Odile in "Swan Lake," one of the most important roles in a ballerina's repertoire. The emotional performance ended with Copeland being feted onstage by trailblazing black ballerinas of earlier generations, and with a sea of fans cheering and taking cellphone videos.
Copeland has become increasingly famous over the past several years, achieving a pop culture status exceedingly rare for a ballet dancer.
"We haven't had a ballet dancer who has broken through to popular culture like this since Mikhail Baryshnikov," said Wendy Perron, an author and the former editor of Dance Magazine. "And she's going to bring more attention from that world to ballet."
In the past year, Copeland has appeared on the cover of Time magazine as one of the most influential figures of 2015, and written both a children's book, "Firebird," and a best-selling memoir, "Life in Motion: An Unlikely Ballerina," which has been optioned for a movie. She also was the subject of a documentary at this year's Tribeca Film Festival.
In recent years she's also performed in a music video with Prince, and been featured in a hugely popular online ad for Under Armour sportswear that shows her leaping and spinning in a studio, while a narrator recounts some of the negative feedback she received as a youngster, when she was told she had the wrong body for ballet and had started too late - at 13.
The dancer also has appeared as a guest host on the Fox show "So You Think You Can Dance" and was a presenter at this year's Tony awards.
Many who attended Copeland's historic "Swan Lake" performance last week noted what a diverse audience Copeland had drawn to the Metropolitan Opera House, where ABT performs its spring season. The crowd was filled with young girls - black and white - in their party dresses.
"She singlehandedly made that a diverse audience," Perron said.
Damian Woetzel, former principal dancer for New York City Ballet and now the director of the Vail International Dance Festival, called Copeland's rise "groundbreaking."
"In the racially underrepresented world of ballet, Misty has already had an historic impact," Woetzel said in an email message. "Now, as a groundbreaking principal dancer, she will continue to inspire and make possible much-needed changes for our field and for the arts in America."
Misty becomes a legend.
Born in Kansas City, Copeland moved at age two to California, where, she noted at Tuesday's news conference, she first took ballet classes at the Boys & Girls Clubs of America - not, she said, a common path to becoming a ballerina for an elite company.
She writes in her memoir that her childhood was defined by "packing, scrambling, leaving - and often barely surviving." But she became known as a local dance prodigy, despite her late start, and joined ABT's junior company at age 18, then the full company at 19. She became a soloist at age 24.
Copeland is the first black ballerina and second black dancer overall to be a principal at ABT, after Desmond Richardson, who danced with the company in 1977-1978 and returned later as guest artist. At New York City Ballet, there has never been a black female principal, and only two black male principals. (One of them, Albert Evans, died last week at the age of 46.)
In 1990, Lauren Anderson became a principal dancer at Houston Ballet - the first black female principal in the country. Anderson, now retired, was onstage at last week's "Swan Lake" curtain calls to give Copeland a huge hug and lift her off her feet. Copeland paid tribute on Tuesday.
"It's not me up here," she said. "It's everyone who came before me and got me to this position."
Also named an ABT principal dancer on Tuesday was longtime soloist Stella Abrera. In addition, Maria Kochetkova, a principal with the San Francisco Ballet, and Alban Lendorf, a principal with Royal Danish Ballet, are joining as principals, it was announced.
The winner of Powerball comes forward. She shows her ticket to the junk food media. Notice that most lottery experts believe that "quick picks" are the way to winning. The winning numbers are located on line D.
The record Powerball jackpot winner steps forwards to claim her share. She is actually putting her face out there to explain her struggles and the miracle of being a single mom and now a jackpot winner.
Marie Holmes of North Carolina was one of the three winners who claims the $567 million jackpot.
The 26 year old mother of four came forth to explain why she wanted to go public.
She along with winners from Texas and the autonomous territory of Puerto Rico share this. With taxes each would walk away with an estimated $130 million.
She had an opportunity to talk to the junk food media about the day she purchased that winning ticket.
Life is good for Marie Holmes.
If you look slightly towards the ticket. The lottery commissions will tell ya that "machine pick" tickets are the ones that you could find the jackpots in. Of course, you're playing against 176 million others who are willing to shelve up to $300 to play a $2 unit of Powerball or $1 unit of Mega Millions.
The Shallotte woman vows to not let the winnings "change her". She said that she will devote some of her earnings to a local church and give her family a vacation.
The Daily Mail reports that Marie used to work at McDonald's and Walmart before quitting to take care of her children.
Her four children, Brayden, Charisma, Andrea and Ebony, are aged from nine months to seven years old. Brayden is believed to suffer from cerebral palsy.
Holmes sacrificed her education to care for her four children and took minimum wage jobs to provide for her family.
With little or no help from the fathers of her four young children, she has struggled financially for most of her adult life.
Holmes has also seen her own father repeatedly jailed and her favorite cousin shot and left paralyzed after a home invasion.
Family members describe Holmes as a loving mother who always put her children first.
"Marie is very grounded and she will know what to do with all that money," said her uncle William Bryant.
Be careful, the Have-Nots will come.
"I'm sure she will want to buy a new home for herself and her kids, but I can't see any extravagant purchases. She's a nice girl who loves her family and loves her church."
In 2012, state officials who run Powerball and Mega Millions changed ticket prices and lowered the odds of winning jackpots in hopes the moves would increase the number of huge prizes and draw more players.
The new rules worked, causing jackpots to repeatedly climb to record levels. More than half of the top 10 U.S. jackpots have been reached in the past couple of years.
Be careful what you play. You are responsible for whatever unit comes out! Be clear in explaining what type of unit you requesting.
Powerball and Mega Millions are tickets that can not be canceled. You are responsible for whatever unit comes out. Your state lottery commission and the licensed retailer are not responsible for lost, stolen, damaged or altered tickets.
You have to be at least 18 years old to play these games.
Best advice for all who win the lottery, is keep a cool head.
The first thing you do is write your name down on the back of the winning ticket. Say if you lose the jackpot ticket! If you have forgotten to sign the ticket and it gets lost, then it's your word against the winner's.
Second, make sure you cancel out your Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or any other social networking website your on. That's the next thing that happens when you're a winner.
Third, you cancel your phone numbers and limit your email intake. Obviously you'll be swamped with phone numbers and well wishers asking if you're willing to shelve out a little cash. Trial lawyers, charity groups, the junk food media and scammers will take advantage of you. Some charity groups will not often bother you, but there are some that pose as legitimate but in reality a scam.
Fourth, hire a qualified lottery attorney. Make sure you have a qualified attorney who specializes in handling large sums of money. Don't assume every attorney is well respected in handling your financial earnings.
Fifth, don't quit a job until you are sure you've won the lottery. Don't rush to judgment about being a lottery winner. Sometimes a person who wins the lottery never expects it to happen so don't sit around the house hoping the day will come you'll be the millionaire. Don't burn bridges with your job. You may end up back at it if you decide to go back into the workforce.
Sixth, pay off debts to college loans, house, billings, and credit cards. Don't let these issues ruin your credit score or chances at buying better things. Do not share earnings with people who owe you money.
Seventh, invest your money in a trust fund if you have children or family members you can trust if you should die. Make a will or entrust. Make sure you know that you have a family member or a trusted friend who will take care of the winnings once you pass away.
Eighth, have fun with your earnings. Don't blow it on things that obviously will attract negative attention. Yeah, this is a gateway to putting in other venues. Some may blow their money at casinos, horsetracks, fantasy football and online poker. Granted that you are given the right to do whatever you want with your earnings, but seriously are going to get a gold stature of your image? Are willing to have five chefs, a butler, housekeeper, nanny, and chauffeur on the payroll? You going to buy a $100,000 vehicle! You want to own an island! Do you want your "friends" who often borrow money from you to handle your earnings?
Ninth, be humble. Cause money will change a person when they're rich. Don't expect your live to be "normal" when you win the lottery. Cause it's not going to be normal. It could a great experience or the worst thing.
Lastly, The Have-Nots Will Always Try To Make You Feel Guilty About Winning. Ignore Them And Be Happy About Your Success.

At this age (25) if something happens politically that I don't agree with, I need to go to my room & like not come out for, like, 7 days.
— Jessica R. Williams (@msjwilly) February 16, 2015
The talk is that Jon Stewart is retiring from The Daily Show. That got the left all in a tight. They really need the Loserville bashing and Republican trashing. The clown car will be entertaining and without Stewart making them look even more nuttier than there usually are.
With Stephen Colbert taking to CBS, John Oliver to HBO, who's going to be the next host?
Rumor has it that Beyonce is going to release another album. Will Target ban it again?
Anyway, Mrs. Carter is the most reclusive entertainer out there. From her alleged pregnancy, to the divorce rumors, and not to mention the Solange Smack-A-Hov issue, Beyonce is relatively quiet on things.
Rumors are spreading around that the Queen of Pop is working a release date in November and it may force an ally to push her album back.
Nicki Minaj is the number one female rapper right now. The Pinkprint which is suppose to released in November but apparently its getting pushed back.
Could this Beyonce secret album be the most anticipated album of the year?
