Favorite 90’s Couple: Black History Edition

An important question for Black History Month, one I’ve ruminated over for years. I’m not even joking, I screenshot this in 2022 and finally have my answer. It was between options C&D for me, because A&B did nothing but waste your time 1995. Don’t even get me started on Nia Long & Will Smith, just don’t.

While Sinclair and Overton were close, I’m going with Whitley and Dwayne, option C. Like, they’re just iconic, even Nikki Minaj references them. They balance each other out and prove true love will always survive the tumult, be it family, classism, or engagements to other people. Which 90’s couple is your favorite?

Happy Birthday Selena

When Scar let’s his brother Mufasa fall on his own volition, that was the first time I recognized sorrow and understood death. The first time I experienced the desire for vengeance was in your honor, most of my friends had that moment. “It’s over for Yolanda forever and the actress who plays her.” In your short time here you gave us signature fits, a new sound, quality work, a banging 90’s babe for inspiration and a love for you that made us want to behead that monster, anything for Selena’s. An icon. What’s your favorite Selena song? Via: John Dyer
