Kris Jenner Slammed by Cosby Mom

Kris Jenner, momager of the Kardashian/Jenner clan and chief pimp of L.A., has been slammed by the most iconic TV mother of all time- Phylicia Rashad. Rashad, who played Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show, has reportedly made remarks criticizing Jenner and her influence on the entertainment industry. According to the latest issue of the National Enquirer, Phylicia believes that “Kris represents everything shallow and vulgar about Hollywood.”

Well, we all knew that, but it seems so much more powerful coming from Mrs. Huxtable.

On Cosby, Rashad played the ideal modern woman–a powerful attorney, firm disciplinarian to 5 children, and loving wife to her doctor husband (Bill Cosby). You would have never caught Sondra getting a dui, Theo dabbling in drugs, or Denise with a sex tape, all run-of-the-mill Kardashian antics.

This is one TV mom smackdown we are eager to see.

Beyonce Stuns at HBO Documentary Premiere

Last night, Beyonce rocked a  show-stopping Elie Saab gown to the premiere of her her HBO documentary, Life Is But a Dream in New York.

Guests in attendance included hubby Jay-Z, sister Solange, mother Tina, along with her friends The-Dream, Angela Bassett, Luke James, Chris Rock, Russell Simmons, Victor Cruz, and Oprah Winfrey.

Speaking of Oprah, Beyonce sat down with Winfrey for an interview just before the premiere, revealing that the the title of the documentary came from daughter Blue Ivy’s favorite nursery rhyme.  Oprah’s interview will air later this month on OWN.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
