Looking back last week was fantastic with a few celebrity birthdays, TV show appearances and red carpet events. If only we can top it, and we will. This week keep an eye out for the legendary Anita Baker on the Mo’Nique Show, the opening of “Lottery Ticket” featuring Loretta Devine, Ice Cube and Bow Wow and Chrisette Michele in Central Park this weekend.
