Finding OWN: Madea Meets Sophia

Sophia (Oprah Winfrey) & Madea (Tyler Perry)

They Finally Meet...

Earlier today Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey have released a teaser video for an upcoming two night spectacular May 28th and 29th titled 'Madea Meets Sofia'. For as long as I can remember Madea (played by the ICONIC Tyler Perry) has been mimicking 'The Color Purple' most memorable character Sophia (Oprah Winfrey), quoting some of Sophia famous lines from the 1985 film. 

 In the promotional video Madea drives down a dusty road where she see's Sophia walking up the road to a house, where Madea stops Sophia and asks where can she find OWN (Oprah Winfrey's cable network channel). Sophia then precedes to quote her famous lines but changing them up a bit poking fun at the fluctuating ratings OWN has been known for...

I don't want to give you too much, you'll just have to watch the hilarious video that will have you in tears.

Fix My Life w/ Iyanla Vanzant: Evelyn Lozada


Last night on Oprah Winfey's cable network OWN, successful prolific Author and Life Coach Iyanla Vanzant sat down with one of reality tv's most talked about celebrities Evelyn Lozada whom recently has been in news due to her domestic violence situation with newlywed husband former football player Chad Ochocinco. 

Aside from having a domestic dispute with Chad, Evelyn has appeared on three seasons of VH1's hit reality series Basketball Wives which showcases the lives, luxury and problems basketball wives/girlfriends face while being sworn in the lifestyle. Evelyn Lozada's character on the show is known for being the bully; throwing glasses of alcohol/water into people's faces, calling women the B-word and most embarrassing running over tables fighting another cast mate. Since then the girl from the Bronx, New York is simply crying out for guidance and help. 

Iyanla was on the journey in helping Evelyn recover from her internal fears and stray away anger she has built inside of her. Iyanla will also get down to what really happened just weeks after Evelyn's marriage to Chad where he allegedly head butted her facing Evelyn's decision to file for divorce after 41 days of the two's nuptials. 

Take a look at some clips from the show:

OWN!



It is 2011 and Oprah Winfrey has already taken over the year. Is anyone as proud and shocked that Oprah Winfrey has her own cable network? Like I am beyond amazed right now. This is something big to me =) I'm so proud of Oprah and all her endeavorers that she has really became an inspiration to my life and role model. It takes a lot to have your own network. WOW! Oprah has really set the bar high for people trying to get like her. Ever since Oprah premiered her cable network January 1st, I honestly can't turn. Oprah has so many shows she's produced and coming out with for her network that I will be tuned in everyday every hour even if it's repeats. I'm very proud of Oprah, someone with that drive deserves all the success that may come her way. Oprah Winfrey is a working machine, this is how I want to be in life. Oprah really practices the saying "You Only Live Once, You Want To Go Out With A Bang!". Congrats Ms. Winfrey!!! Keep On Amazing Me With Your Unexpected Endeavors. =)
