The colloquial names for breasts have been quite colorful— “fun bags,” “knockers,” “racks,” “hooters,” and “boobs.” Carrie’s mother referred to them as “dirtypillows” in Stephen King’s novel, Carrie. While the ass-phenom has exploded, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there has not been a precipitous drop in women receiving breast augmentation. Instead, the trend for smaller breasts to achieve a more natural appearance is in demand, while it still may be causing mysterious illnesses.

The documentary Explant makes a compelling case against the procedure and sheds light on “Breast Implant Illness” (BII) or lymphatic system strain related to long-term implants. Two celebrity women have the same slow-moving, “not quite there” appearance, and no one’s talking about it.

Former talk show host Wendy Williams has proudly discussed her breast implants, even expressing regret over going “so big,” but said she wasn’t taking any steps towards reduction. But the former radio host stated that she would remove them without hesitation if she received breast cancer news. Currently, Williams is battling health concerns that mirror those examined in  Michelle Visage’s film Explant—chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and autoimmune disorders (none of these symptoms have been linked to breast implants by medical professionals). Explaining her symptoms, Williams says she has been diagnosed with Graves’ disease and lymphedema, but has not addressed any complications from breast implants. But Williams isn’t alone in this breast conspiracy. Another famous woman’s similar cognitive characteristics have been tabloid fodder.

Singer Mariah Carey has never admitted to breast augmentation, but the photos of a Vision-of-Love Mariah vs. We-Belong-Together Mariah look drastically different (I love them both). Talk of alcoholism and drug abuse has been swirling around the singer for years (Williams has been honest with her struggles with substance abuse), but just like Williams, Carey’s signs mimic those in Explant. It’s possible that Carey’s “symptoms” could be linked to lifestyle choices or other health issues, but it is clear to many that her movement has deteriorated over the years.

What’s unsettling is that both of these women’s identities appear wrapped up in bloated silicone. Both are gifted, attractive, iconic women, but neither seems willing to explore whether their vanity may be making them sick.

This is just a Lawton Lane News conspiracy theory, but I think I’m on to something. What say you?

“Slave Contracts” have been an urban legend for decades. The general idea is that black entertainers are told that once they sign their contracts, enhancing or advancing black communities economically, socially, or politically in any way is not an option. Is there any truth to this?

After 20 years, Oprah Winfrey closes the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy School for Girls.

Winfrey opened the school in Africa in 2007, with many critics asking why Africa and not America. The former daytime talk show host often stated that American children “seemed to demand consumer goods instead of showing a passion to learn.”

On this website, the prevailing belief is that “slave contracts” exist and prohibit black entertainers from paying it forward, and perhaps Winfrey wasn’t allowed to build a school for poor black children in America. There are no Jay-Z state-of-the-art elementary schools in Brooklyn, no Beyonce’ School for Performing Arts in her home state of Texas or where she resides in New York or California for black youth, no Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Babyface, Sammy Davis Jr. academies anywhere in urban areas, which makes the “slave” myth attractive to skeptics.

One thing we can be certain of is that Black people have worked extremely hard to keep those “slave contracts” intact. Black entertainers have a long history of bailing out nearly every corner of the industry when it needed saving: Black exploitation films extricated the film industry from its almost irreparable financial woes; Eddie Murphy almost single-handedly rescued Saturday Night Live from its failing ratings; Dr. Dre, with his 1992 hit album, The Chronic, saved Interscope Records when it was on the verge of “closing its doors;” Venus and Serena Williams breathed new life into a sport that was predominantly played by whites; Tiger Woods dazzled the sport of golf, once thought of as a game only played and wathced by old, white, retired men.

So, was Winfrey capitulating when she established her school in Africa instead of America? We may never know.

As always, I say to America,

You better get mad till you get f@ckin’ glad! I’m out!

The late pop sensation, Whitney Houston, was not only a great beauty but also bore a suspiciously strong resemblance to her “cousin,” singer Dionne Warwick, more than her “mother,” Cissy Houston.

While the documentary recounting Warwick’s career is no longer in circulation, it stated that the singer disappeared from the spotlight for exactly 9 months.

Lawton Lane News engages in speculation, suggesting that if Houston were not the daughter of Cissy Houston, then Warwick and the late producer, Burt Bacharach, could hypothetically be her biological parents. This claim is conjectural and lacks substantiated evidence.

Bacharach had always expressed a deep fondness for Warwick, professing his admiration and respect for his protege.
