Hey Gorgeous! DO I LOOK FAMILIAR? Of course I do! Maybe you know me from being a BET J host, or as the face of blackplanet's fun talk-variety show clips, or you've seen me as a correspondent on BET, HBO, NBC, or read about my work as "the goddess passionista" in Paper Magazine, Self Magazine, Essence Magazine, Cosmopolitan Magazine, RollingOut Urbanstyle Weekly, Esquire, Time Out NY, Upscale Magazine, Uptown Magazine, Nerve, Good Housekeeping, Today's Black Woman, Carib News, the Amsterdam News, The Village Voice, Black Enterprise Magazine or The Observer. Or maybe you know me from VH1's romantic comedy reality series Tough Love.
I am also the author of the novel Dare and host of hit talk-variety show Planet Abiola for blackplanet, the largest African American community in the webiverse. My writings on the foibles of love, sex and dating are also in current bestselling anthologies Dirty Words: A Literary Encycopedia of Sex and Behind the Bedroom Door. Now I've added reality star to my resume as one of the co-stars of VH1 reality show Tough Love Boot Camp; produced by Drew Barrymore, starring Steve Ward.
