| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| All Hail The Jamie & David Show!!! |
| Thursday, January 26, 2006 |
I've been trying to post this all day, but I kept being distracted by business that demanded my immediate attention. But this day (or tomorrow) will not pass without me giving major props to the most excellent Jamie Foxx NBC special, Unpredictable, that aired last night.
What made this show even more exciting was that it was written and co-produced by The People's Playwright, author extraordinaire, Hollywood's newest kickass film director, the tall, handsome and choclotastic (all respect due his gorgeous and talented wife, Lyn), super-smooth...
The sexy, Oscar-nabbing, Billboard chart-topping Jamie Foxx (whose cd, Unpredictable, as of today, has once again unseated Mary J. Blige's The Breakthrough and returned to the top position) and NAACP Image Award-winning David E. Talbert together? How totally cool was that!!!
A stellar array of celebrated musicians came through to perform in duets, alone, and in collaborative performances, including Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder, Angie Stone, Common, Snoop, and Game.
Interwoven between these fabulous performances were touching, bittersweet, and seriocomic theater-style skits depicting a young Jamie and his grandmother as she chastised and encouraged him through the life lessons that would ultimately lead him to his success today. Quite an impressive production. In the words of my favorite song from Jamie's Unpredictable cd, it was a one-night Extravaganza.
The special will air again tomorrow night at 8pm EST/7pm CST (8pm Pacific). Be sure to watch it, or set your TiVos if you plan on being out. Heck, set your TiVos anyway. This show is so swole, it pops at the seams. You'll want to watch it again and again.
To my dear friend David...
...Well done!!! Hollywood better brace itself for the likes of you!!!

After the mass mailing I recieved demanding that I view it or the same dark forces that supposedly ruined Dave Chappelle would destroy my career ( as if my career could be further jeopardized by someone other than my own self destructive two baby mamma having ass!!) I bent to all the pressure and watched the fabulous musical entertainment minus white faces that is normally required on any all black ensemble... a trick networks used not to offend middle america.I could just imagine Micheal Bolton setting by his phone thinking ... " Oh shit a black musical special , let me reach out to Kenny G and Micheal McDonald and tell them we are going to work on a song justin case Jamie bends and has to use a token." But J Foxx didnt and showed the world you can have old school jams new school artist and even Snoop D O double G in the mix and no one gets assaulted or arrested. Well I mean at least not at the show I can only imagine what the after party was like ... can you say ORGY I bet you can, and from all Ive been reading Stevie Wonderman would have been on the top of the list as most likely to freakceed . I mean he is old blind and still making babies. I've always said it dont take a man with sight to find a hole ... Stevie is a testament to my theory Kudos to J and Mr. Talbert on a job well done!!!!!

LOL!!! Have you no shame, making us picture our icons in such sordid situations? I don't want to picture Stevie poking for holes. When I think of Stevie, he's always at the keyboard. Clothed. And that's how I want him to stay. (Kinda like John Legend. I don't think I've ever seen him from behind a piano. Does he have legs?)

i like my icons to be sordid as a matter of fac t if a mufucka aint indecent he can be an icon of mine. Clinton, Martha Stewart, and Jessie Jackson major iconic figures did dirty deeds one gets a blow job in the white house the next scams on stocks and the other is a married reverend with a wife and a babies mama. My new heroes are those twins from american idol ... they can sing good enough to impress Simon and forge good enough steal a brand new dodge magnum.
