B Girl the movie
Spoke with the Director of the movie B Girl today Elizabeth Dell very awesome lady. She and her sister took a passion for dance and a story idea all the way now this small film is going to give Hollywood's Step Up 3D a run for its money! Beatfreakz the girls from America's Best dance Crews Competition are starring in the film it sounds like it will be a great movie to see. What I like about smaller filmmakers is that they appreciate the public at large and understand tha even with a ton of publicity money it dosnt guarantee a success unless the public is feeling you! The numbers game about throwing all your dollars into publicity doesnt work people have to be entertained and word of mouth can kill a film quicker than an uzi! I contacted Step Up 3D and onl 2 members of the cast would deign to be interviewed that's sad considering none of them are big stars yet and they already have big heads. I do want to shout out to B Girl peppa the real B girl who does some serious dancing in step Up 3d she is down to earth and rocks on stage a serious talented quadrule threat, dancer,actress,martial artist,stuntwoman,WOW!

HERstory
The Miss Black USA Pageant and Scholarship Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit corporation in the state of Maryland, recognized under the 501(c)3 code of the Internal Revenue Service. The Miss Black USA Pageant and Scholarship Foundation, Inc., was founded in 1986 by Karen Arrington.
On June 6, 1987, the J.W. Marriott hotel ballroom in Washington, D.C. was transformed into an elegant showplace. It was standing room only, and the atmosphere was electric. A celebrity panel of judges representing the sports, entertainment, media and fashion industry had the best seats in the house. At 8:00pm the lights faded and the curtains were raised. Next, twenty-one stunning, smart and talented African American women from across the nation represented the dreams of our ancestors. From the Harlem Renaissance to the New Renaissance we have moved beyond the cotton club, savoy and into an arena that gives us the freedom to conquer all.
The delegates took to the runway. They made no secret of their ambition to succeed. They were academic divas with high aspirations, advocating change in their communities. They were following in the footsteps of African American she'roes, and paving the way for those who would follow. They modeled one-piece swimsuits in bold and shimmering palettes. Next, the delegates showcased their talents. Inspired by the works of some of the greatest and renowned African American literary writers and artists, delegates belted out tunes to the likes of Billy Holiday, performed ballet, tap and modern dance, and read dramatic recitations from the works of Maya Angelou, Nikki Giovanni, Zora Neale Hurston and others.
The mood softened for the eveningwear competition. Delegates graced the runway with layers of chiffon flowing gowns, panels of lace, and strapless dresses that were made for the red carpet.
The high voltage show was one to not be forgotten and culminated in the crowning of the first and only "Miss Black USA," Tamiko Gibson, Miss Black Maryland a 21-year-old professional model. The stunning University of Maryland Broadcasting Journalism major made history when she won the coveted title of "Miss Black USA 1987" and paved the way for others to follow:
Twenty-two years later, the tradition continues ...
