Have you ever read something where you just KNOW the writer talks with their hands, does the sound effects, and would bust out a little dance if it suited the story? That's Erica. She's a colorful storyteller whose sense of humor and fearless honesty make a big impact. Her rants might go for the emotional jugular, hit your funny bone, or shock you and your mama out of your fajas. Usually it's all three. Often chronicling her life in Florida, her stories are full of characters like "Bikini Rifle Lady", "Mariachi Neighbor," and "Barbara The NextDoor Evangelist." There's almost always a message in the madness, and that's what people connect with most. Also her deep and undying love for Tevin Campbell. You can find more of her work at www.EricaFazio.com

The New York Times has been the talk of the town lately - mostly because of the anonymous Op-Eds. The publication just got itself some more attention, but it's probably not the kind that they like. The organizations Emmy's coverage was marred by a caption that somehow confused Angela Bassett with Omarosa.

We're not entirely sure who wrote the initial caption or why that person thought Omarosa would be presenting awards at the Emmy's, but that's really neither here nor there. We know the NYT ran it, and we know the internet DRAGGED them for it. People of all ages, races, and political backgrounds came together in agreement on one thing:


Angela Bassett's name shall not be taken in vain!








With as many beautiful, powerful, and emotionally diverse characters as Bassett has played - you'd better believe there were Ms. Bassett GIFs aplenty.









Yeah we could fill an entire article with just Angela Bassett GIFs, but you get our point. The publication printed an apology and explained that they used the captions provided by their image source. The source has since updated their caption, and so has the NYT.


But not before Angela, herself, found out about it and responded to let her fans know she had it under control - with a GIF, no less!


Her fans - as expected - loved it.

Audra McDonald Speaks Out After Autograph-Seeking Fan Followed Her Home—And People Are Horrified

Broadway legend and recent star of Gypsy Audra McDonald unfortunately finished the show's run on a sour note, as she informed fans on her Instagram.

The Tony-winning actor and singer, 55, started by explaining that the "stage door" practice, where Broadway actors exit through a side door of the theater to greet fans and sign autographs, is common but not expected or required. Some actors love to do it, others would rather not, and she stressed that there are countless reasons an actor might choose not to on any given night.

There's this weird pressure in the world to know what you're going to do with your life when you're between 18 and 20, work hard to get it, and then be satisfied with that for the rest of your life. But for many people, they're not in a position to attain their dream life when they're 20 years out.

That said, it's never too late to get a fresh start, even when you're around the middle of your life.
