Last night we attended the red carpet premiere for Tyler Perry's new movie "The Family That Preys". Sanaa Lathan, Taraji Henson and Alfre Woodard all looked lovely on the red carpet.  Rockmond Dunbar  portrays Sanaa Lathan's husband in the film and said that he just directed his first movie in Atlanta which is now in post production. The entire cast said that they were excited to be working with Tyler Perry.

Taraji said she didn't hesitate when she received the phone call to be in his film. 

The movie centers on two matriarchs played by Alfre Woodard and Kathy Bates who must overcome struggles to raise their families. 

Sanaa Lathan told us that she enjoyed playing the bad girl who has an adulterous affair and she is voicing an animated character on the FOX Family Guy spinoff series. Taraji Henson told us about her upcoming movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" starring Brad Pitt. Taraji says that she plays Brad Pitt's mother and wishes that the casting was different so she could have some Oedipal love scenes with Brad. Shame on you Taraji... We're telling Brad Pitt's baby mama Angelina Jolie.  The Family That Preys opens on September 12th. Stay tuned to Binside TV for our coverage of the red carpet.

Actress PENELOPE CRUZ shocked the cast and crew of Italian movie DON'T MOVE after making herself look "very ugly" for the film.

 
The Spanish beauty's co-stars avoided contact with her after she put on thick make-up and a set of false teeth to play an unattractive, destitute woman in the 2004 drama.

 
She says, "In the Italian movie I had to be very ugly. I didn't shave my legs for two months.

 
"People on the set were embarrassed to look at me. I was walking around Rome with bad hair and a moustache. I looked scary."

Egads and little catfishies!

I left the lake on Saturday. I figured I'd get back and get ready for the work week ahead. I'm going on third shift starting at 1:30am tomorrow morning. I don't really know how to sleep, ectetera.

So Saturday night I went out, telling myself that this will be the LAST time I can go out for a long time. I took the 9:30pm bus into NYC and headed up to a fave jazz club. I stayed until four am and met up with Lance and we hung out for a few hours having breakfast and then he came back to the flat to hang out with me.

I thought he might make a good roommate.

I was a little enebriated.

So it was Sunday morning and he was on the cell with his girlfriend and he says he'll cook dinner. And I decide to have a change of heart and  have Denise and Bob over one last time. Bob left for Fla. this morning and I figured they could meet Lance and tell me if they thought he'd make a good roommate.

So they came down.

And Lance made some beef ribs and veggies and it was all good.

Then Bob says he's having trouble breathing. Denise and Bob and Lance all go to Bob's car to drive up to his house to get his inhaler or some such thing.

Then a few minutes later Lance says that they need to use MY car because Bob's won't start. So I go down and over and Bob is having kind of an episode..it might have been drama, who knows? So I get into his car and have no trouble turning the engine over. Bob couldn't drive and I don't think Lance remembered how to drive a stick shift.

And so Bob decides that he'll stay there with Lance whilst Denise and I motor up to Bob's house and get his inhaler and some medicine thingy. Then we motor back. Bob is still standing on the sidewalk with Lance holding him -exactly where we left them.

I tell Bob that I'll just take him home. I get him in the car with Denise and Bob. We drive up to Bob's house. But we're stuck up there. I don't have any cash, nor does Lance. Denise wants to leave and says she'll pay for the taxi to take us all back. She and I have just about had it with Bob and his episodes.

So she calls a taxi and we motor on down and drop her at her flat and then on to my flat.

Lance goes into the parlor and is watching some video. I go to bed.

At 4:30am I hear the buzzer for the door. I think it must be Lance, that he locked himself outside while going out for  a smoke. I buzz the door. Bob comes up the stairs huffing and puffing.

He says that he has a cab running outside and that he doesn't have any cash.

I ask him what's this all about.

He says that he had 300. in his wallet and somebody cleaned him out.

I asked him who?

He said that he knew that it was Lance.

Okay, now I'm dumbfounded. Did Lance steal the cash from Robert?

So I send Bob into the living room and he wakes Lance up and confronts him about the money. He says that he needs that money to get to the airport at 5:30am and that he doesn't know what to do.

Lance emphatically denies taking Bob's money. He explains to Bob about how he was having serious health issues and how we had to take him back to his house and how were we going to get home? Why didn't he offer to pay for a taxi to take us back, him with all his millions.

Bob says he would've if we had asked. Fat chance.

So then Bob says he wants to see Lance's wallet. Lance puts up a bit of a fight saying he can't believe what is going on here. So he says he has to use the loo, and hands me his wallet as he goes in. I give it to Bob. There are a few dollars in there, but no 300. Lance is very insulted by all of this.

Bob leaves.

We all go back to bed for a few hours. I wake up around 10am and decide that Lance must go. So I wake him up and tell him I need some alone time and would he get it together. We decide he'll leave around 12pm. So I make coffee and we hang out and he has a bowl of Fruit Loops and I tell him that I don't think I want a roommate for awhile. And he sounds a bit upset. But I tell him that I think that with the new job I just need to be alone for awhile, given the hours and everything. Eventually it sinks in. And he seems okay with it, but says I have to stop changing my mind all the time, and he gives me a little of his victim spiel. And I tell  him that we've all been down that road...nobody has it easy all of the time.

And so this morning I walk him to the bus to take him home. And we stay for awhile and talk about cars while waiting for the bus which is late. Then I tell him that I can go out on weekends but that during the week I really have to focus on the job.

He shakes my hand, gets on the bus, and at that, he's gone.

I go home and clean up the mess, dishes and the like from the party. I remove all evidence.

Big question? Who stole the cash? Was it Denise? Was it Lance? Or did Bob just misplace it given his mental capacity with seizures and all?

And do I need this drama in my life? I want quiet now.

So I'll try to get back into bed around 4pm and sleep for a good many hours before treking into the city for the job. I'm here now to get info on how to get to the office.

Bob and the ambulances and the like are what caused me to go out and blow off some steam. Saw Charles, he looked miserable.

And so ends this January.

Have a great day world, and thanks for reading!
