The U.S. Women’s Gymnastics team has just won its second gold medal EVER at the 2012 London Olympics!

Jordyn Wieber, Gaby Douglas, Alexandra Raisman, Kyla Ross and McKayla Maroney finished first with a score of 183.596. Russia came in second with 178.530, and Romania was third with 176.414. This is the first time the the gold medal has been brought home for women’s gymnastics since the “Magnificent Seven” back in 1996.

Call them the “Fab Five” or the Fierce Five” but these girls earned these medals together and deserve to enjoy every second of this moment!

This past weekend I attended the Pursuit of Dreams’ 2011 Minority Mentorship Symposium, founded by the lovely Coach Beverly Kearney on the campus of Texas University in Austin, Texas. The weekend featured distinguished individuals from the sports, entertainment, corporate, political and academic arenas from around the country. If you are not familiar with Bev, she is one of the most successful and decorated coaches across all of collegiate athletics, Beverly Kearney is in her 18th season as the women’s track and field and cross country head coach at The University of Texas. Not to mention she taught herself how to walk again after a paralyzing car accident back in 2002. Phenomenal Lady!!!

I was honored, along with several other women, receiving the Divine Diva award from Bev’s “Pursuit of Dreams” Foundation for our philanthropic efforts and distinguished careers.

The legendary Eddie Levert also stopped by to show his support.

MC Lyte, Bev, and LeToya Luckett were there and struck a pose with Cookie Johnson at her Neiman Marcus in-store for her chic jean clothing line.

Here I am speaking at a pep rally for 2000 kids…..

To close off the weekend, we all partied at Bev’s house where Tank and Letoya Luckett performed. Check it out…..

Last night I attended an intimate press dinner held at Pranna in NYC for the Braxton family whose new reality show, Braxton Family Values, premieres tonight on WEtv.

Toni Braxton, her remarkable sisters, Traci, Towanda, Trina, and Tamar and, of course, mom Evelyn were all in attendance.

The ladies answered questions regarding all of the love, drama and sisterhood that surrounds their show. The youngest sister, Tamar, is a character and had me hyper ventilating in laughter all night!!!!

Remember, Braxton Family Values premieres tonight at 9pm.  Make sure you check it out! I have a feeling it’s going to be a good one!! Shout’s to Shante Bacon and 135th Street Agency.

Toni also mentioned that she may be retiring from the music business……

More on that and the rest of the pictures from last night after the jump…

Toni appeared on BET’s 106 & Park yesterday while doing more promotion for the show.

43-year old Braxton revealed she is seriously contemplating on leaving behind the entertainment industry and  focusing on motherhood. She has been faced with A LOT of drama over the past two years…divorce, bankruptcy and record sales that were sub par.

Check out the full interview:

Having sold over forty million records worldwide she’s made quite an impact in the music industry for many years. One thing is for sure…if she does retire, she would surely be missed.
