    I love the picture of her holding her memoir. That is so beautiful. I wrote a memoir too. Angie congratulations to you! The voice of New York City! You deserve it.

    Good luck ANGEL! Hola...Hi all ... I have a few issues with Ms.Martinez... She is too soft when it come to the so called rich "stars."Wendy tell it like it is imho .hence, i just really love wendy better... JMHO she is the best. WENDY WILLIAMS=keep it real when she is speaking, and is blowin' up for years on FOX big time." Now, i m goin to say this, ANGIE love u sometimes pero POR FAVOR chica, do not embarrass us wit ur um talk show, u r not a good rapper, bombed on LADIES NIGHT, lil kim saved the entire song. i love wendy who worked so hard to get where she is, and i want to say Angie"Stop givin' so called "stars"a pass, wendy does not do that.She tell it like it es, she do not back down, i.e., 50 cent now has to crack on her, tryin' 2 prove self, when she spoke surely-truth on how he IS with Shaniqua/his handsome young son.So if you're going to do it angie, u r not goin to be successful brown-nosing "stars" and not tellin 'it like it is." I doubt you will be also as big successful as wendy because "she has mastered her lane,and has done what many are not blk women hispanic brown...." By keepin'it real,and not brown-nose up celebs u know what.. Adios."

    Dope! “You can’t be afraid to be whack. Because that’s part of the process. If you never give yourself the permission to be whack at something, then you’re not learning anything... you can’t be great outta the box.” Big facts, and it’s crazy how that’s not said enough. Thank you.
