Just one thing , Please "Don't Waste Your Pretty"


The movie everyone was raving about last night on twitter was something beautiful of the Black Experience within love, friendships and family.


Don't Waste Your Pretty, a TV One Original Movie based on the book Don't Waste Your Pretty: The Go‑to Guide for Making Smarter Decisions in Life & Love by award-winning author and media personality Demetria L. Lucas, the film details the facets of life, love and overall happiness we seek out for ones self.


This movie depicted these Black Experiences in such a dynamic way, we tend to forget that though we all go through our trials and tribulations in life, love, family and every aspect of life, but its the beautiful experience of being black while going through those roads to our happiness. The support of family, the support of friends, the caring nature of our people allows for the experience to be that much more mendable and that was the beautiful thing about this TV One Original Movie.

After years of extreme career focus, Mykah (Hilson) finally stops making excuses and starts looking for love.

The recent divorcée Jeanné (Wynans) has put the idea of love on ice but has to decide if the burning flame from Mykah’s twin brother Michael (Williams) is warm enough to melt her heart again. Fun-loving, married couple Amma (Singleton) and Aisha (Burke) are #couplegoals of the group but struggle to strike a balance as they embark on their parenthood journey.
