Coachella 2024 officially approved. The festival attracted in-person audiences across 7 stages (and tens of hundreds more across multiple YouTube Livestream channels), crammed with energetic performances and surprise appearances from top hip-hop, R&B and soul acts.

Both weekends featured collaborating artists with shocking performances, similar to Big Sean, who joined his partner Jhene Aiko on stage to perform a few of their TWENTY88 hits almost 8 years after the discharge of their collaborative project.

Headliners Tyler The Creator and Doja Cat were joined on stage by surprise guests for the ultimate sets. Tyler the Creator’s performance on Saturday featured Donald Glover, A$AP Rocky and Charlie Wilson, who joined the rapper/singer at the piano for an acapella performance of “911/Mr. Lonely” (sampling Gap Band’s “Outstanding”) and “EARFQUAKE” to raucous cheers and chants from the audience.

On each weekends, rising singer-songwriter YG Marley was joined on stage by his mother, none aside from the legendary Miss Lauryn Hill. She brought along one other third of The Fugees, Wyclef Jean, and fellow rap legend Busta Rhymes for performances of such classics as “Killing Me Softly,” “Fu-Gee-La” and “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See.” ” On the second weekend, YG’s brother Skip Marley joined him on stage to perform his hit “Slow Down” and the Bob Marley classic.

Later that night, Justine Skye joined Lil Yachty to perform “Running out of Time,” and 50 Cent joined DJ Snake on stage for a surprise performance of his hits.

Perhaps the largest shocker was that through the first weekend, Will Smith joined J. Balvin on stage, donning a Men in Black suit for a performance of “Men in Black” accompanied by aliens.

ICEM: Tracee Ellis Ross's Blunt Ponytail and more

Warm or cool? Dark or blonde? The celebrities have been divided over the past week, which caused their argument for a lot of beautiful appearances to see what sticks. From the tonal division into eye shadows to a tie between blunt cutlets and hair extension, the most effective moments existed in indecision.

While Jorja Smith and Alva Claire decided to, respectively, on a denim and stone cold eye shadow, red lip of Ayo Edibir, blushing and brown bob suited her warm disposition. Very long ARI Lennox water waves mean long blond hair (combined with small pink makeup).

On the opposite hand, Tracee Ellis Ross and the star Essence March/April Tyra Banks was consistent: blunt and raw cuts are an unexpected trend this season. But Rihanna, noticed at Fenty Beauty, meeting in Paris, preferred to stay classic. Her powdered under the eyes combined with a standard lip: a dark insole and a brand new one Gloss bomb lip oil In “Rose Amber”.

Mara Brock Akil wants to make a movie “Girls” – only needs financing

Published

on

By

Until now, the cultural trace of the story of Mara Brock Akil is undeniable. Her latest series, “Forever”, had all of us in our feelings last weekend (including this creator). But for fans of her earlier work “Girlfriends”, “Love Is” and “The Game” there’s also also also one query that never disappears: Will we ever receive the precise sending for ladies “girls”?

Apparently Akil wants it as much as we do.

In a recent seat in “Sherri” Akil said she was trying to revive the movie “Girls”

“I want to tell this story … I want to write an epic film (” Girls “); I tried to tell this story, “Akil admitted before I revealed that its biggest road blockade on this project was financing.

“So I have a good idea for us now,” she added. “Where is your phone? Do you know someone who has $ 50 million on your phone? Do we have five people who have $ 10 million? Do we have 10 million (people) who have five?”

Considering what variety of viewers Akil loves the work, social media users were shocked, hearing that the creator of “girls” is trying to get financing their projects.

“From the CV Mara Brock Akil should not be begging you to invest in her stories. This is crazy,” commented one user About the actual fact.

“If sex and city got two spinoff films, we can finish girls, someone will open their wallet” Another user wrote on Twitter.

While Shepherd was joking about “handing over the album” to finance the film, she also emphasized how difficult it’s to get projects in Hollywood, even throughout the case of essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably probably probably probably probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably probably probably probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably essentially probably probably probably probably essentially probably probably essentially probably essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably probably essentially probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially essentially probably essentially essentially probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably probably essentially probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably essentially probably probably probably essentially probably probably probably probably probably probably essentially essentially essentially probably probably essentially probably the most respected names in the game. The premiere of “Girlfriends” in 2000 and ran for eight seasons, giving us 172 episodes with the participation of Tracee Ellis Ross, Golden Brooks, Jill Marie Jones, Persia White and Reggie Hayes. The program suddenly stopped in 2008 through the writers’ strike, leaving too many unanswered fans about Joan, Toni, Maya, Lynn and William.

Still, Akil didn’t lose hope. And she didn’t lose gratitude for the fans base, which stays to be going to history.

“I really want to thank the audience because you didn’t let go and (I),” Akil added.
