So, what do you guys think of Lawrence Fishburne's daughter, Montana, wanting to be a porn star?

According to this article on TheGrio.com, the 19-year-old said, "I've watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape."

So far this young lady has gotten a lot of publicity and I don't think the tape has even come out yet. Do you think her stint as a porn star will give her the fame she wants and will launch a successful career?


One person who's had a successful career is Wyclef Jean. The singer, songwriter and super-producer had a wonderful ride as a member of the Fugees and went on to produce solid hits for a number of other artists including Whitney Houston and Shakira. Now he wants to be president of his native Haiti. What do you think of his chances? Do you think he has the skills, political acumen or knowledge to uplift Haiti, still in disrepair and turmoil from the earthquake?

I know Wyclef wants to help his country and the millions that continue to suffer each day. However, desire is one thing. Knowledge and skillset is something else. But I guess if he can surround himself with the right folks, he can pull it off.

Think about it. Lots of celebrities (athletes and entertainers) have gone on to second careers: Former NBA star Kevin Johnson is the mayor of Sacramento. Arnold Schwarzenegger is the governor of California. Sonny Bono was a mayor and then became a congressman. And lest we forget, Ronald Reagan was the 40th president of the United States.

So why not Wyclef?

Before I leave, I have to mention the newest Housewives franchise: The Real Housewives of D.C. Did anyone catch it? What did you think?
