Then we did Coachella for two weekends along with everything in between that’s life. Then I was filming Antebellum in May for two months. Then I went on tour for two months right after that. Then I left Japan and came to L.A. to film Homecoming for two months. Looking back on it, I kind of want to slap myself for not allowing myself to have a small break in between.”

 Alicia Keys shared the advice she’d give people who struggle to say no in an interview with Times Live. The star who recently released her memoir More Myself shared that it took her years to learn to say no and now that she’s sharing that advice with her fans.
 


When asked what advice she would give to people who always feel the need to impress by saying yes she said in part; “Man I would say just cut it out. Right now. Just stop.”
She continued; “There’s no way that you can make everyone happy and, honestly, it’s so tiring to have to keep up with what somebody else wants from you. I would share that I understand how that feels; I’ve been there so I get it. I know that it usually comes from the best of places, wanting to make people happy, from hoping that great things will come your way, from a dream that you might have and that you want to achieve. It all might come from a good place, but just stop because it’s impossible.”

Gabrielle Union-Wade is breaking her silence for the first time since she was relieved of her judge role on “America’s Got Talent” in November 2019.
In an interview with Variety, she spoke out about negative moments she experienced while on the set of the popular competition show. These incidents included allegations of both a toxic work environment that included racist jokes and excessive focus on female judges’ appearances, including race-related comments.




Gabrielle Union-Wade said she initially signed up for AGT because it would give her “the experience of being a part of a show that hails itself as the biggest stage in the world,” one that is “super-diverse” and prides itself as “giving people the opportunity to shine where they otherwise probably wouldn’t.”




She alleged her time was marred by executive producer and head judge Simon Cowell‘s on-set smoking, guest judge Jay Leno making a racist joke, a blatantly racist act by a white contestant who imitated a black performer, and a lack of inclusiveness by those asking for preferred gender pronouns and the hair and makeup department being ill-equipped to deal with the talent of color.




Speaking on her experience making a complaint about Cowell whom she called “the most powerful person” on the set smoking, Union claimed she was made to feel like her becoming sick as a result of the smoke was her fault.
