Pastor Dave Alleyne of the Flaming Word Ministry of Chaguanas has come to the defence of his 14-year-old daughter whose raunchy dance with international superstar Akon of Senegal can be seen worldwide on YouTube.
Alleyne yesterday described the racy dance video of his 14-year-old daughter and Akon as “atrocious” but said that Deena was taken advantage of when she attended a concert at which Akon, a hip hop and R&B artiste was featured.
“She likes dancing and won a competition,” Alleyne said, adding that she became a victim in a situation where she had no control.
The Atlanta Film Festival’s Opening Night Film and After Party for VH1’s “Last Days of Left Eye” took place last night. Guests included Monica, Big Boi, 112, Free, Ceelo, Tamyra Gray, India Arie, and Ron Devoe. Sue me, but I never knew that Ron was married to the singer from Blaque.
“Last Days of Left Eye” chronicles her spiritual retreat to Honduras, leading all the way up to her eventual death. I’ve heard about this documentary before, as it has been previously shown at past independent film festivals.
Reginald “Cool” Coolidge is a struggling actor, fed up with taking stereotypical African-American roles and waiting for his big break in a legitimate production. While working his day job, his ex-fiancée - and one true love - reappears after three years of silence. Discovering that it’s only 36 hours until her wedding to a local lawyer, Cool embarks on last-ditch attempts to win her back. In the process, he takes on the biggest “role” of his life, while also learning the secret to mastering his craft.
