Radar 3/8: The Pop Culture Periscope

Radar 3/8Radar 3/8: The Pop Culture PeriscopeWe don’t know about you, but we’re still feeling a bit high after last night’s Academy Awards. What an exciting night! We couldn’t be happier for Mo’Nique, Geoffrey Fletcher, Anthony Mackie and Roger Ross Williams, yet no matter whose names were printed inside those envelopes, we consider all of our nominees to be winners. That said, we also bow our hats to Gabourey Sidibe, Lee Daniels, Morgan Freeman and Broderick Johnson. Award Season 2010 has been quite a whirlwind for us here at Essence.com and honestly, we’re all feeling a bit misty as the red carpets, luncheons, dinners and photo shoots are coming to a close.
