La La Anthony is single and ready to mingle! The 39-year-old actress recently celebrated her new collection with PrettyLittleThing and during her launch party she opened up about finding love after filing for divorce from Carmelo Anthony. La La was married to the Los Angeles Lakers star for 11 years and during that time he allegedly had a baby outside of their marriage. Now that La La is officially single again *cues "Single Again" by Trina*, she is taking some time to focus on herself as well as her son Kiyan.


"I am just really about self-love and taking care of myself. Obviously, my son, Kiyan, is 14, in high school, he is my priority, but I'm really just about tapping into me and what do I like to do and what do I enjoy," La La shared with Entertainment Tonight.

But self-love isn't the only love she's working on. The former MTV VJ revealed that she would be open to finding a partner.

"Who doesn't wanna be in love?! I mean hey, I'm single! So we'll see, we'll see what happens," she said.

She even gave some details about the type of man she's looking for. "Somebody that I can have fun with," she said. "Somebody that I can laugh with, have a good time with. Just someone that is chill and easy because that's pretty much my personality."

But just because she's single and ready to mingle, doesn't necessarily mean that the New Yorker wants to get married again.

In October, the BMF actress opened up about divorcing Carmelo on The Angie Martinez Show and whether or not she can see wedding bells with someone else in the future.

"Marriage, I don't think I can do that ever again," she said. "I mean some, like, amazing person would have to come. I don't see that happening again. But I don't know what God has in store for me."

So far the single life has been looking good on La La, but we want whatever is best for our good sis!

I don’t know what it is about me when it comes to television (or web) series. Usually, I won’t watch them when they’re airing in “real time;” it’ll be a couple of years later, and then I’ll binge-watch and become a fan. Such was the case withChef Julian (the real ones know). And while watching it, someone who I found to be so pretty was the main character’s forever-on-again-off-again girlfriend Mo’. Real name? Javicia Leslie. If you’re not familiar with her, on one of the episodes, Julian jokes about her resembling Tatiana Ali — and he would be correct.

Anyway, it’s always cool to see people rise in their craft. A couple of years ago, Javicia made history as the first Black woman to play one of the characters of the DC Universe (Batwoman, to be exact). And why is she relevant to this particular article? It’s basically because, a couple of years before that, she had the lead in a cute film entitledAlways a Bridesmaid. On some levels, she even inspired the decision to write this piece.
