Melanin Magic: Disney Partners for Tamron Hall Daytime Show!

ArianneUpdated on August 9, 2018August 9, 2018

Know your worth, then add tax. No one demonstrates or proves this saying more than former MSNBC correspondent, Tamron Hall. Tamron shocked the industry when she walked away from the network after her top-rated show was unexpectedly cut; in order to make way and open up a time slot for Megyn Kelly. Now Hall is getting the last laugh because major entertainment giant, Disney is inking a development deal for the creation of the Tamron Hall Daytime Show!

Melanin Magic: Disney Partners for Tamron Hall Daytime Show

Don’t call it a comeback. Hall left MSNBC with her head held high and with the belief that something better would eventually come her way. At first, she may have assumed it was in the form of additional monetary gain from MSNBC. The network had offered her a multiyear AND multimillion dollar deal to stay put. However, the sting and pinch of her show’s removal was all the motivation the talented Hall needed to move on.

Her move is definitely paying off now. Disney/ABC is giving fans want they want… more Tamron screen time! Their development deal with Hall will secure a brand new talk show during primetime day hours. Tamron is most excited over this development and took time to talk about as well as thank her supporters. She states,

“Thank you Team Tamron. For over a year, you kept supporting my efforts. This is our next chapter, one we’ll write together! I’m so thrilled to partner with Disney/ABC to create a daytime television show that’s unconventional, fun, intimate and sometimes even raw.

My new partners appreciate and respect the relationship I’ve built with my audience and know that if we create television worth watching, they’ll join us for the ride. I’m so grateful and excited for this next chapter. The landing makes the leap of faith so worth it!”

Amazing! We hope that this story of Hall’s triumph will inspire you to reach for new heights and milestones for yourself as well. Like Tamron you can do anything, all you have to do is believe and keep pushing forward.

Beautiful Black Women: Imaan Hammam Covers InStyle Magazine September 2018

Arianne August 8, 2018August 8, 2018

Have you ever felt like you didn’t quite fit in? Do you wish to authentically dance to the beat of your own drum? Well then, the InStyle Magazine September 2018 issue is so for you!

It features supermodel, Imaan Hammam, as it’s cover girl for the month. Shot in gorgeous Cuba, Imaan dazzles in the leopard print trend by donning an ensemble by fashion label, Moschino. However, you will not want to just marvel at Imaan’s stunning cover. Dig inside as she talks about life, career, her heritage and how she finally feels free.

Beautiful Black Women: Imaan Hammam Covers InStyle Magazine September 2018

Taking the modeling industry by storm is not easy. You have to have a certain essence, look, a … je ne sais quoi about yourself. Nevertheless, most models know that in order to “make it” they have to conform to a particular standard of beauty. Well, what if you don’t fit it?

InStyle’s September issue discusses just that. The mag released this statement in order to give a preview to their exclusive with Hammam:

“Throughout her seven years in fashion, model Imann Hammam has racked up a holy grail list of resume highlights. But nothing has shaped her career quite like the first time she let her now signature curls loose on the job.

‘Stylists would straighten my hair because they didn’t know how to work with my texture,’ the half Moroccan, half Egyptian beauty says of her early modeling days. ‘My hair was always damaged,’ she tells Allison Syrett on the cover of one of our special September subscriber issues.

Finally she had enough. ‘I was like, “You know what? I’m going to go natural for this test shoot.” And everyone was like, ‘Oh my god, Imaan, this is your look from now on… this is you!'”

Authenticity looks good on model, Imaan Hammam. After years of feeling insecure about being ‘the girl with the different hair and skin color,’ she’s never been more comfortable with herself.

And now she wants to show other girls that it’s okay not to fit in too; as she tells Allison Syrett in our September issue. ‘I’ve become a woman with a big platform. And I want to use it to help those facing the same struggles I had.’ To see more from her shoot in beautiful Cuba and read the full story on how the [she] came into her own [see] the link.”
