Ok... so my new guilty pleasure is... Gossip Girl. I would say, 'no homo'... but... a grown azz man watching a show called 'Gossip Girl', kinda is... lol But its interesting and well written. It's like a Mean Girls TV show. I watch it... so what? I still have hair on my balls, so fukk ya'll! (lol)
Anyway, one of my favorite characters and actresses on the show is Leighton Meester. She is kinda the dark-haired bitch on the show. But that is not why I dig her. I dig her because she is so beautiful to me. She has such a pretty smile, and I am a sucker for dimples. She kinda has that Gabrielle Union glowing smile thing going... but... white.
So I am surfing random blogs today and I came across one that made me REALLY dig Miss Meester. (What kinda name is that by the way? It sounds like I am saying Ms. Mr. with a mexican accent... like it should be followed by... 'on a steeeeeeeek'... lol)
And while Miss Meester is playing a rich brat from Central Park West, in real life, she was BORN IN JAIL!!! No. Really. Well, her mom was allowed to live in a half-way house with her til she was 3 months old. But she was still technically a jailbird. And Leighton was raised by relatives while her mom served time in a Federal Prison for drug charges.
Now, I am not celebrating her parent's delinquency (her dad did time too...) I am just saying that I love the story of the come-up. I love when people can surmount their situation and accomplish something major against the odds. And I LOVE that this story is about a white person, and illustrates that black folks aren't the only ones with messed up backgrounds. This could be ANYONE's story. This could be anyone's success.
So any of you readers out there whose mamma was(is) a crackhead or daddy was (is) in jail... BE ENCOURAGED! You can be anything you want to be. Just go out there and DO IT!
good 4 her...
