Procter & Gamble has teamed up with My Black Is Beautiful in partnership with Black Girls Rock! and The United Negro College Fund, to empower millions of teen girls through an initiative entitled, Imagine A Future. The Imagine A Future initiate will provide scholarships, leadership camps, online interactive tools, plus a documentary series of the same name, Imagine A Future, featuring young teens that are changing the face of beauty through leadership.
During the BET Awards 2013 and The BET Live Experience, select media outlets, including MrsGrapevine.com, were invited to an Exclusive VIP Screening of the documetary. The documentary follows teen Janet Goldsboro as she travels to South Africa to explore the historical and modern context of self-esteem and black beauty. Imagine A Future also explores a broad range of beauty through personal interviews with celebrities like Gabourey Sidibe, Tatyana Ali, Melissa Harris-Perry, and Gabrielle Douglass to name a few.
We caught up with Tatyana Ali on the red carpet, plus a few other celebs, like Lisa Leslie, Producer Beverly Bond of Black Girls Rock!, and actress Brely Evans from Sparkle. Find out what they reveal to us, and check out more of our pics…
Tatyana Ali accidentally reveals to us that she will be starring in a Christmas film produced by BET with Loretta Divine, A Very Larry Christmas. Followed by an “Oops”! Apparently Tatyana Ali isn’t suppose to reveal that information just yet. She also says she considering getting back into music.
