Thoughtful gift. Kind of Ms. Streisand.
Now this is how you so it. I was a little peeved with the college funds. She won’t have immediate access. And it plays into black respectablity and classism. Assets is a more thoughtful approach. I wonder about Rashard’s daughter; her father died on her birthday. Found out the news if his death in her Birthday dress
Is little Gianna Floyd’s middle name really Pink? If so, that’s very cute and funny.
I like to imagine that Streisand has a walk-in closet filled floor to ceiling with stock certificates that she can pick out at any time.
I think she does, maybe as part of the shopping mall in her basement đ
“Yes, let’s go to the stock market!” Strolls down the hall…
I canât believe you didnât link to Laineyâs piece on Sasha Exeter and Jessica Mulroney!
I feel like that might be because we’ll get a full post about it tomorrow? Maybe hopefully?
Ahh yes!! That makes sense. I hope thatâs the case because I really want to get into it in the comments. Itâs SO good
Fingers crossed! It WAS pretty great, so I’m really hoping we do!
Don’t Floyd’s other kids matter? I have not heard of anyone helping them out or even acknowledging them. I know I would be hurt.
Everything aside (hard to do it, but…) I really want to read some honest piece of journalism, how a great father G, Floyd was to all his children. How he supported the children while he was alive. I hope its not a bad thing to ask how a man treats their children?
I don’t consider it my business. I guess I am more focused on the horrible, senseless way the man died.
His son, who I believe is in his early 20âs, did an interview stating he saw the video and didnât know who he as until his mom told him. He and his mom moved away from Houston when he was little and didnât see his dad again. It wasnât clear if that was his mom or dads choice though.
He has I think four kids. Also, if Floyd was not supporting any of his other kids (and we don’t know that) maybe it would be nice if they got some support now. I think one of them is 18 years old now. Maybe college for that one?
Whether or not Floyd was part of their lives, his kids are now, under most States’ laws, his closest relatives, his next-of-kin. But it seems as though other relatives of Floyd’s are pushing to the fore, certainly for attention and possibly for money that should go to all of Floyd’s kids and not just Gianna.
This is a kind and grand gesture. Every bit of kindness helps.
This is a very nice gift from Barbra Streisand; it is something Gianna likes but also gives her a nice starting asset. I understand the feeling behind the college funds but can also see how they could be preceived as classism. I am choosing to see all of these gestures as people trying to help and make life just a little easier for this little girl. Although I am sad there is a need for such funds, I would love to see a general fund for children who have lost a parent due to police and/or racial violence.
Aww, that was really sweet of her.
Re : Gaga Still Wearing Mask
In LA, masks are, in fact, mandatory across the entire county when youâre outside of your home. So not a surprise that Gaga and her beau are wearing them.
Actually, I do remember that SJ Parker was dating Downey Jr. back in the day. She was in a series called A Year In The Life with Richard Kiley. Her character was married to the character played by David Oliver, who was my high school friend’s brother. She told me about them dating because at the time my friend was on friendly terms with her. I told her to tell SJP how much Downey, Jr. at the time reminded me of the silent film actor Buddy Rogers (from Wings).
But that was then. David Oliver died in the early 90’s, some time after the show had been canceled.
This is such a nice gift. My grandparents bought me a tiny bit of Disney stock when I was born. I think my check is like $6 a year or something, but I love Disney and it makes me happy to see that letter come through the mail!
