Chris Brown and Meagan Good Join Cast of Steve Harvey's Film "THINK LIKE A MAN" <!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->
Los Angeles, CA (July 14, 2011) – Production for THINK LIKE A MAN has begun in Los Angeles, CA. The highly-anticipated comedy is an adaptation of comedian and nationally-syndicated radio host Steve Harvey’s New York Times best-selling book, Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man.
In the film, four interconnected and diverse friends have their love lives shaken up after the women they are pursuing buy Steve Harvey’s book and start taking his advice to heart. When the band of brothers find out that they have been betrayed by one of their own, they conspire to use the book’s teachings to turn the tables.
The film stars Chris Brown (Takers, This Christmas), Michael Ealy (Takers, For Colored Girls), Jerry Ferrara (Entourage), Meagan Good (Jumping The Broom, Stomp The Yard), Regina Hall (Scary Movie, Law Abiding Citizen), Kevin Hart (Death At A Funeral, Not Easily Broken), Taraji P. Henson (Hustle & Flow, Karate Kid), Terrance J (BET’s 106 & Park, Stomp The Yard: Homecoming), Romany Malco (40 Year Old Virgin, No Ordinary Family), Gary Owen (Little Man, Daddy Day Care) and Gabrielle Union (Cadillac Records, Bad Boys II) featuring Lala Vazquez (Two Can Play That Game) and Arielle Kebbel (Vampire Diaries, The Uninvited).
Tim Story (Fantastic Four, Barbershop) will direct. Will Packer (Stomp The Yard, Obsessed, Takers) will produce via his Rainforest Films banner. “Steve Harvey has established himself as one of the funniest and most insightful voices in America. That coupled with an incredible cast makes this an exciting venture,” says Packer.
The screenplay was written by Keith Merryman & David A. Newman. Steve Harvey, Rushion McDonald and Rob Hardy will executive produce. THINK LIKE A MAN is scheduled for release on April 6, 2012.

<table border="0" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="6" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td style="border: 1px inset currentColor;" class="alt2">S2S Publisher Jamie Foster Brown talks to Nivea about her baby daddies, her children and her career in the August 2011 issue. Get an excerpt below.
*****
Jamie: Are you going to do a reality show?
Nivea: Honestly, I’ve been approached but I wasn’t interested because, like I’ve been saying, I’m a very private person. And on some real, it ain’t even about the kids and all that; it’s about that I don’t think people are ready for my kind of real. (laughs) I’m not trying to “be” a certain way; I’m just passionate about whatever I’m talking about and what I’m doing, and people tend to use that against you. And I’m not ready for that type of backlash ‘cause I’d wanna fight everybody. Like, “What’d you say?!”
Jamie: (laughs)
Nivea: (laughs) You can’t do that. So I am considering the ones who are interested in following my comeback. My musical journey? Let’s do it! But in my house and around my children, I’m not comfortable with that type of exposure at all.
Jamie: Is it hard dating in the music world? Do you have a significant other now?
Nivea: I’m dating, yea. But he’s not in the music industry, thank you Lord! (laughs)
Jamie: This is pretty serious then?
Nivea: It’s been a minute, and we are really good friends and that’s the most important thing. But it ain’t no marriage and all this and that. This is my friend for life, and that’s the most important thing.
Get more from Nivea in the August 2011 issue of Sister 2 Sister.

[Mary J. Blige's] still prepping for her role as Nina Simone in the legendary singer’s forthcoming biopic.
“I have a lot of YouTube of her and I just watch her, study her, read about her, talk to different people about her,” she said.
While talk about Mary J. playing the jazz legend has been circulating for years (and was once rumored to be on the backburner), it’s good to hear it is still in the works.“I have a lot of YouTube of her and I just watch her, study her, read about her, talk to different people about her,” she said.
