Lauryn Hill at NY Fashion Week

Ms Lauryn Hill made an appearance at NY Fashion Week today, attending the Carolina Herrera show. And if she decides to come, she is automatically the MVIP.

Are you over the Roberta Flack and D’Angelo tribute led by Ms Lauryn Hill at the Grammys yet? I’m not. There was so much wonderful intention in that performance, with all those artists, and not only was Lauryn one of them, but she was also the conductor. If you’ve ever seen her live in concert, it’s a familiar role for her, she is constantly giving direction and I’m not sure she’s credited enough for how skilled she is in musical arrangement. There’s a direct connection from Nina Simone to Ms Lauryn Hill.

Those of us who are fans are well aware of that Ms Lauryn Hill operates on her own time – and that applies to social media too. She doesn’t jump on a post right after something happens, she often lets the experience sit before she shares. I also appreciate that she’s known for a long caption, not always, but our Queen has things to say!

Here’s what she had to say about the tribute at the Grammys.

What else happened today…

I did not watch Scrubs during its original run. I am most familiar with Zach Braff in Garden State. Do I need to apologise for this? A conversation for another time, because right now it’s about the new Scrubs. Dustin Rowles is a huge fan of the show and he shares his thoughts on Scrubs 2.0. (Pajiba)

As usual, there is some f-ckery happening with the judging in figure skating at the Olympics. I am Canadian and most of us of a certain will never forget the mess of Salt Lake City with Salé and Pelletier. That was in the pairs competition, this week the controversy is in ice dance, which is never not dramatic anyway. The Fug Girls are here to break it all down…plus the outfits. (Go Fug Yourself)

A new season of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver premieres this weekend. Alan Siegel interviewed John about how the show has changed and what keeps him and his team going. I hope it keeps going, I love this show. (The Ringer)

I miss Ego Nwodim so much on Saturday Night Live. She’s hosting the Spirit Awards this weekend, streaming live on YouTube. And to promote the event she was on Jimmy Kimmel Live! basically outing herself that she hasn’t seen that many movies, LOL. (Celebitchy)

This Margaret Qualley text message is sending me. And yes, Tommy Lee Jones needs to perform it. (Vulture)
