I love when they did this for Aretha. It also touches me that they did it for Dolly. 🥺

This morning, the Coldstream Guards at Buckingham Palace performed a tribute to Dolly Parton.

The last time I remember the guards at the palace honoring the memory of an American entertainer was when they paid tribute to Aretha Franklin after she passed away.

Well deserved!

@Ooonowhoisit @lailatill She was physically strong enough to win HOH, strategic enough to guarantee Chuk or Haley would be gone by who she picked to be on the block, AND had strong enough social game to align herself with a strong player to keep the nominations intact.

I hope fam of #Chuk sits him down about his disrespect of LaLa. He told on himself in more ways than one & I’ll avoid use of my crass hashtag for him. Even if LaLa were to get kicked off next week, the “delusional old lady” will forever have outplayed and outlasted him. #BB #BB28

I know good journalism isn't done for the kudos, but damn it, kudos to this good journalism from my colleagues @ByRobertoR and @Hicks_JustinM, edited by @aminamania here at @WFPLNews! Thank you.

LPM News uncovered that voters from more than 1,800 households may have cast incorrect ballots due to an error by the Jefferson County Clerk's office. In some instances, this affected where they voted and which representatives they were able to vote for. https://t.co/zSI70xXx3q

@MicheleValJean How could he not be proud of you? I just want you to know that I'm an AVID watcher, lover and supporter of Beyond The Gates. I'm a lifelong soap watcher and you are killing the game. I'm also a writer who appreciates your smart choices. Just wanted to say thank you!

@MissNicoletta @sadreturns @MoodyBlueliner There really isn’t a broadcasting school, per se. Many in TV and radio just develop a certain cadence in doing our jobs.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@sadreturns @MoodyBlueliner It is not sounding white. It’s sounding like the educated professionals that many of us are. Please don’t call that sounding white.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@simmons6654 That’s such a good point!

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@SoapDigest I was so shocked by this development. Both the actor and the character grew on me.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@NoneOfY29794282 @SoapDigest Just a guess, but maybe the show mentioned? Lol.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@therealrahdigga I love it. I’ll be your friend. Lol.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@donnahoke Congrats!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️💐💐💐💐🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@MommaBe48430654 @SoapDigest I thought the same thing. I guess major and original are interchangeable in this context. Lol.

@yannaarose_ @_Oluwanifemii That’s a beautiful way of looking at it.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@KingMadTaz @blueprinttttttt @chi_quiero Stop that nonsense. A lot of folks are raising kids in their communities without adoption papers. Don’t insult an entire race of people because of one person you disagree with.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@colmandomingo You single handedly have made this season of #SNL funny. Thank you! Can you just come back every week and make the fashion professor a regular character?

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@AJ_Route7 @_DundeePerfect_ @nickimoraa That is absolutely the law.

[Michelle Tyrene Johnson @DivaOfDiversity]

@tap3000 This is a soap and it’s escapism. They have no obligation to make every character and every plot reflect the reality of the Black experience. They already have one PSA plot going on - Anita’s cancer. And on GH, I bet Robin’s storyline was the only PSA plot going on at the time.
