Abs Beauty and Brains is coming to town A.B.B. Brian White Laz Alonso Robi Reed
Brian White, Actor, Producer, Philanthropist is coming to Chicagolands Missions and Marketplace annual conference March 29-April 1, 2016 at Living Word Christian Center, 7600 West Roosevelt Road, Forest Park, Illinois. Brian has more than 27 movies under his belt. Brian is comedic, fervent, serious in supporting roles and lead. An absolute joy to watch perform fully clothed or not.
Brian is famous for baring all and committing to succeeding at achieving his dreams. Just take a look at his long career in the entertainment industry. Prior to arts and entertainment Brian was in sports which was cut short by injury. Next, Brian gravitated to modeling and acting building up a dance company for youth. To help pay the bills Brian got in to the stock game obtaining his license to manage client assets. Brian is giving his fans and want to be performers an opportunity to hear him speak and ask questions about how to maneuver your way to success in Hollywood. Brian website show him doing a jumping pose in the nude. There are movies where actors are asked to strip down to skin. So, the obvious question is how to stand on your principles to stay clothed in a rapid stride to success. Since this is presented by a school that teaches success based on business knowledge and knowledge from the Holy Bible.
Laz Alonso started off doing commercials while maintaining his job in finance. Ask Laz about paying the bills while pursuing a career in arts and entertainment. Laz has over 50 movies credits including the television series the Mysteries of Laura as Billy Soto. The photos above are from Laz’s Facebook pages. One thing I noticed is Laz’s regime for eating bad. Laz just jumps back on the exercise wagon with a smoothie that looks more like oatmeal in a jar. Hey if drinking the Almond Milk shake is the prerequisite to a stunning healthy bod that yields dividends then all should sign up. Hey 50 cent and Pepsi Laz has a 400 million dollar wonder shake to sell. Laz and all his wisdom will be at the Missions and Ministry conference at Living Word Christian Center March 29 – April 1, 2016.

War Room Movie Review
ACAW Media solicited an opinion from a movie goer after she had seen the movie War Room and this is what she had to say:
“The movie “War Room” opened in theaters today and it is a “Devine” intervention. I laughed. I cried. It jumps immediately into the action of the lives of a married couple. There’s something for the faithful, unfaithful, men, women young and old. The movie addresses real life issues. It had to have been based on someone’s life (mine perhaps). It transitions well and remains entertaining throughout the movie. War Room was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend it. Believers and non-believers are in for a treat.
-Karen W.”
Now we know the faith movies with good characters is possible. If people can not see themselves in the movie you know its a flop regardless of numbers. But so far War Room is a movie people can relate.
No second chances in life take two film group 30 seconds of funny
For once I did not mind the endless ads Google displays on its search engine. It was an ad for Snorg Tees which lead me to a film group called No second chances in life take two. The idea behind No second chances is to become successful within 90 days by doing short films in length of 30 seconds to 3 minutes. Yeap, 30 seconds. If the Superbowl ads can do it then why not a bunch actors looking to actually make a living at acting. Check the funny videos for yourself.

So, the entertainment industry and science fiction fans are all abuzz with a black man playing the character, Johnny Storm. It should be known that Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch aka Jim Hammond was an android that surrounds himself with fire and controls flames. The Human Torch was created by Phineas Horton, also a character first introduced in the Timely Comics, October 1939, by writer Carl Burgos. The fictional character Phineas created The Human Torch in his lab. When Marvel Comics took over Timely Comics, they kept the name the Human Torch and created another character called Johnny Storm the Human Torch which debuted November 1961 as a member of the Fantastic Four.
Storm was created from a cosmic occurrence on a spacecraft. 
What’s interesting is the original Human Torch dealt with ridicule because he was different from others. He eventually won over the people and became a hero. So, it looks like life may be imitating art. What difference does it make if a black man plays an android, its fantasy. The beauty of fantasy is imagination, change and acceptance. Do we need a Professor Phineas to give the final okay to cast a black man named Michael B. Jordan as The Human Torch, Johnny Storm and remind everyone Michael is a good actor and color does not matter? Michael B. Jordan has 27 movies under his name and counting.
#The Single Moms Club the Movie by Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry’s The Single Mom’s Club, the movie hits theaters March 14, 2014. The trailers for the movies are moving and gives you an a light into the heads, emotions of the single mothers and their children. Some women choose to be single mothers, some are forced to be and others are as a result of divorce, death of spouse or mate leaving the home. Either way you slice it being a single mother is rough.
The kids act out because they do not know how to express themselves and often times the single mom is too busy working to put food on the table that they do not have the time to listen to the kids. Support groups are great ways for single mothers to get the emotional stability that is lacking. So, instead of blowing up at your kids you can vent with those who can truly empathize with you.
Tyler Perry was raised by a single mother who has since past. So, I guess we can say The Single Mom’s Club movie is a salute to Tyler’s Mom as well as to the many single mothers in the world. You can Like the page, The Single Mom’s Club Movie to get up dates and chat.
