Ms. Encore Couture

I want to congratulate my friend Lakesha Heath for winning Ms. Encore Couture. I'm such a proud friend. She deserves it, too. I met Ke Ke when I was 22 and we have had a great friendship ever since. We meet at church, but since then we have moved onto other churches and have seen each other sporadically. When we do see each other, its like we never missed a beat.

Now, this pageant was for full-figure women, and about time! Most women aren't even a size 2. Even Marilyn Monroe, who many men drool over, wore a size 16. She was featured in the Herald in Rock Hill, SC and I saw some of the comments. They weren't very nice. I think for some people, if you don't have anything nice to say, just don't say anything at all. I'm sure there is a flaw or something you don't like about yourself that people can talk about.

I just want to say, I think Lakesha is a very beautiful woman inside and out. She is a great friend, sister, encourager, truthful, loyal, and has a big & good heart. She is an extrovert and probably wouldn't care about the negativity people say about her, because she is on cloud nine. Mama, keep doing your thing. You are definitely going places and people are always going to hate. If you have hundreds of haters, than baby you are doing something right! Love you always!
