PBS has announced a broadcast date for a documentary about ballerina Misty Copeland!

According to Newsweek, A Ballerina's Tale, will air on the network as part of  PBS' Independent Lens series. The documentary is set to air on February 8 on the network at 10 p.m. ET.

Of course, we know that Misty made history back in June 2015 by becoming the first African-American woman to be named a principal dancer with American Ballet Theatre! The new film “intimately documents [Misty's] historic rise while shining a light on the absence of women of color at major ballet companies,” according to PBS. The documentary also looks at the beauty standards in ballet and how it impacts not only the health of ballerinas but the mindset of young ballet fans.

The documentary follows Misty after her debut as the title character in Alexei Ratmansky’s version of Firebird in 2012, as she deals with several fractures, surgery and then recovery. The ballerina didn't come back to the stage until 2013.

I'll definitely be watching! Check out a preview of the documentary below!

Nicki Minaj is set to release a new documentary to give her Barbz and other viewers a real look at
her life again, and we have a trailer!

The documentary, My Time Again, set to air on MTV in a few weeks, gives us a behind the scenes look at who Nicki is and what she deals with in her superstardom. In the short clip, we see Nicki's performance at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards (and the disastrous rehearsal where one of her dancers was bit by a snake), as well as her preparation for her most recent album, The Pinkprint.

The documentary will air January 18th at 10 p.m. ET on MTV. Check out the trailer below!

I think I'm going to check this out. I'm always interested to see the person behind the artist, and I think that Nicki has a lot more to her than what's at the surface a lot of times.

Are you going to check out My Time Again?

Beyoncé recently revealed that fans will be able to catch an intimate look behind her life in an upcoming HBO documentary, and has dropped the teaser for the film!

The feature-length film, debuting Feb. 16, 2013, will show Beyoncé at her performances, in the studio, at home, and even gives an up-close shot of Beyoncé's baby bump when she was pregnant with daughter Blue Ivy! “HBO has a history of pushing every boundary with class and authenticity,” said she said of the film. “Some of my favorite shows are on HBO, so I am excited that my film will be part of its bold programming. This film was so personal to me, it had to have the right home.”

See the teaser below!


As a proud member of the BeyHive, of course, I'm beyond excited! Since she was with Destiny's Child, Beyoncé has notoriously been a very private artist. It was a smart move to keep private matters private, but fans always want to know as much as they can about their favorite artists! For her to be coming out with this movie is MAJOR. This film is definitely one to watch for in the entertainment biz!
