JANET MOCK MAKES HISTORY AND DIRECTORIAL DEBUT

While FX’s Pose has already made history with the largest cast of transgender actors ever put on television, one episode in particular made history for a different reason. “Love Is the Message,” the show’s sixth episode, which aired Sunday night, was directed by Janet Mock -- making her the first trans woman of color to ever write and direct an episode of television.

Mock shared her gratitude across social media on Sunday night, tweeting out a photo of herself from the first evening on set of her directorial debut. “That smile hides my nerves about being the first trans woman of color to write & direct TV,” she wrote. “We are deserving of opportunity & more than capable.”

About AID Atlanta

AID Atlanta has been providing HIV/AIDS-related services, care, and education since its inception in 1982.  The agency was established in response to the devastating impact that HIV/AIDS was having on gay men in Atlanta.  In the face of fear and bigotry, founding members volunteered their time to provide support and education.  The organization quickly expanded to engage Black and Latino populations and meet the evolving needs of our diverse community in response to the epidemic.  Today, AID Atlanta offers a broad range of services and has grown to be the most comprehensive AIDS service organization in the Southeast.  AID Atlanta currently offers HIV/AIDS prevention and care services, including (but not limited to) Primary Care, HIV/STD Screening, PrEP, Community HIV Prevention Programs, Linkage Services, Case Management, and a state-wide Information Hotline.  The mission of AID Atlanta is to reduce new HIV infections and improve the quality of life of its members and the community by breaking barriers and building community.

John Legend doesn't speak for Kanye West—and he doesn't pretend to, either.

But considering their close friendship, a Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen viewer called into the show Thursday night to ask he how he feels about the rapper's polarizing tweets.

"Yeah, well, you know...When I see some of it, I just shake my head," John admitted. "A lot of people that love Kanye, that love his music, they're like, 'I don't agree with a lot of the things he says.' And, you know, he loves it. He says what he's gonna say, and it's on him. It's weird, because I get asked about it all the time...I can't be accountable for what he's gonna say. Truly!"

Wendy Williams isn't ready to return to her purple chair just yet.

The Wendy Williams Show viewers hoping to see the talk-show host on the small screen are going to have to wait a little longer.

E! News has learned the show will air repeat episodes the week of January 21 and will produce brand-new episodes with a variety of hosts starting the week of January 28.

"As Wendy Williams Hunter previously shared, she fractured her shoulder and has been on the mend. Over the past few days, Wendy has experienced complications regarding her Graves' Disease that will require treatment," The Hunter Family said in a statement on Instagram. "Wendy will be under the strict supervision of her physicians, and as part of her care, there will be significant time spent in the hospital."

The statement continued, "Despite her strong desire to return, she is taking a necessary, extended break from her show to focus on her personal and physical well-being."

During this week's shows, panelists including Don Lemon, Carson Kressley, Heather McDonald, Bevy Smith, Ashleigh Banfield, Ali Wentworth and Mario Cantone have discussed "Hot Topics" in live episodes.

Debmar-Mercury, the media company that produces the show, expressed their full support for Wendy as she recovers.

It's not an easy time for Toni Braxton.

First, she and Birdman signaled just after New Year's that they had called off their engagement and split. On Friday, it was reported that Braxton owes nearly half a million dollars in back taxes. Court records obtained by E! News show that last month, the Internal Revenue Service filed a lien against her, for more than $340,200 in back taxes for 2017, and that the State of California Franchise Tax Board also filed a tax lien against her for over $116,100. The total is more than $456,400.

Braxton has not commented.

In 2017, she completed her The Hits Tour and continued starring on the WE tv reality show Braxton Family Values.

The Blast, which first reported the debt news, also said that both the IRS and the State of California had also filed back tax liens against the singer last year for more than $780,800, citing court records. 

Braxton filed for bankruptcy in 1998 and 2010, according to court records obtained by E! News. That latter year, she reported $1.6 million in assets and $18.3 million in debts, the Wall Street Journal reported in 2011. The newspaper said Braxton later won an order discharging her from certain debts in her 2010 bankruptcy case.

Lifetime's Surviving R. Kelly explores extremely horrific sexual misconduct allegations against R. Kelly. Many were left mortified by the stories told about R. Kelly. However, he also seemed to inspire a lot of sexual abuse survivors to reach out for help.

I can still remember my childhood best friend, Tonya. We were inseparable! I looked forward to seeing her at school, even though we also chatted on the telephone in the mornings before and in the evenings after school.

Do you remember your childhood best friend?

Friendships are invaluable and should be cherished. Consider yourself very fortunate if you

have at least one best friend. We usually treat our friends with love, kindness and respect but becoming your own best friend is sometimes more difficult. When you are your own best friend you will have standards in your relationships and will teach others how to treat you by the way you treat yourself.

A few steps to becoming your own best friend:

? Enjoy being alone sometimes? – Just as you love to hang out with your best friend,

learn how to enjoy being in your own company from time to time. Take yourself out for

dinner, go see a movie. Don’t wait on someone to come along for you to take your

dream trip; go solo! By cultivating this treasured friendship, you stop needing others to be your companion.

? Like yourself? – True self-love means getting rid of those negative thoughts about

yourself. You would never speak to your best friend in the harsh manner you sometimes speak to yourself. Rather than just focus on your flaws and mistakes, celebrate your strengths as well. When you like yourself, you’ll be happier, and others will enjoy being around you.

? Express love for yourself ?– Do acts of kindness for yourself every day. Be intentional about it. You should put your love into action by eating foods that are good for you, getting plenty of exercise and rest. Take a splurge and see your favorite singer in concert. If you know how to show love to yourself, you will know how to show love others.

Being your own best friend means you’re no longer stuck in unhealthy relationships because you’re afraid of being alone and others will be attracted to you because your positive attitude and your joy.

So...love you!
