When I get married, it will be to none less than a His Imperial Highness.
Though "Her Serene Highness" IS pretty hot.

I got my essence yesterday and enjoyed the article on Ms. Cole. I was sad about the article with Kim: it took you 10 YEARS to see he was PLAYING you?!
GREAT article about Barack Obama too.
And I did think Hype Hair when I saw the cover... lol....

Hey, hey leave Jet alone!
I have a subscription to it and you know what??
In spite of its flaws, it still the only magazine that provides both 'vanity press' and stories we would never hear in the mainstream media about Black folks.
And, they have NEVER been sued for libel to my knowledge and we all know they have printed some scandalous stuff about people - like Ronald Isley and Teddy Pendergrass.

Does anyone remember a short-lived magazine called 'Honey'. It seemed its target age group was 18-25. I used to buy it, but I think it is no longer published.

I could've swore that I just saw that mag on my BF table not more than 3 weeks ago. I think it was an updated publication  You might want to see if they have a website or something. I think they are still around.
ETA: Yep, I believe their website is www.honeymag.com

Black Royalty: Mary Countess von Habsburg of Austria
From another blog:
Quote:
Black Royalty: Mary Countess von Habsburg of Austria
Countess Mary is married to Ferdinand Leopold Joseph Count von Habsburg of Austria. The royal family of von Habsburg are descendants of William the Conquerer.
Mary was born in Wau, Sudan under the name Mary Nyanut Ring Machar. Countess Mary and Count Ferdinand are 38 years old and both are born under the astrology sign, Cancer.
Countess Mary married Count Ferdinand on August 28, 1999 in Nairobi, Kenya. The couple have 3 children together: Countess Luisa Aluel (born August 3, 2000), Count László Rum (born May 25,2002) and Countess Gisela Aluk (born October 22, 2004).
All three of the couple's children were birthed in Nairobi. As of yet, I haven't located pictures of the children.
Yes, Countess Mary is considered an equal in her marriage, even though she's a commoner and African. A couple members of the Royal Family had a problem with that, but Head of the Habsburg Royal Family, Dr. Otto von Habsburg has declared all Habsburg marriages are "equal."
Thank goodness Countess Mary has married into a family that is lead by an open-minded individual.
The Habsburg's are known for their interracial/intercultural marriages and I'll tell you about the other sistas in this family shortly.
Once again, as I stated in my post about Princess Angela of Liechtenstein, there should be more coverage of these imperial black women. I can understand why Anglo magazines don't show love, but what are the black publications excuse?
