By ESSENCE Editors and Staff ·

We never know when one of our fave celebs will casually stroll right by our desks, and hopefully it’s not right when a staffer is taking a huge bite of their tuna sandwich for lunch. Seriously though, celebrity office visits here always feel like a family member is stopping by. We’d like to take a moment and thank all the wonderful and talented people who take time out of their busy schedules to come see, chat, and take a million pictures with us. Here’s to another wonderful year at Black Girl Magic headquarters!
