I recently found out that someone I know reads one of the same blogs I read. And it was a pleasant surprise. So I decided to share the details of my Google Reader with my most favoritest four readers. You might find something that strikes your fancy.

• Crunk & Disorderly
• Sports Biz with Darren Rovell
• The Sports Economist
• The Sports Law Blog
• The Black Snob
• AverageBro
• Grey’s Anatomy News
• Ugly Betty News
• exciting.cc
• I Like Her Style
• lookbook
• Fashion @ I’m Not Obsessed
• The Fashion Bomb
• Fa$hMaven
• The Look 4 Less
• Stuff Fly People Like
• Kanye’s blog
• Ryan Leslie
• girl uninterrupted (blog of author Lola Douglas/Lara Zeises)

I was too lazy to link all of these.  Hopefully, you’ll find something interesting!

I came across an article via Crunk & Disorderly (oh, how I love that site) that related to my post about the Ciara video featuring Justin Timberlake. While my post only danced over some of the issues I have with the video (mainly that JT does nothing but stand there while Ciara is performing trick after trick after trick*, seemingly for his approval/attention), the article on Soul Bounce goes into depth on the JT + Black women tip.

Do I agree with everything she says? No. Did the article make me stop and think? Yes. And that’s why I’m sharing it with you, dear readers. That, and the fact that it touches on one of my greatest personal fears (which people have seen fit to mock, hence why I’m not sharing it, no matter how much I appreciate the four of you).

* No, I’m not recanting my desire to learn those tricks. That would be a ginormous lie.

With celebrities constantly taking matters into their own hands via their own blogs and Twitters (John Mayer is by far my favorite celebrity Twitter-er), it seems that reporters don’t even bother asking them anything anymore. They just hop on over to the celeb’s page and write up a story. Amazing. I want a job like that one.  Seriously.
