Looks like the Murphy-Lawrence family just got a little bigger! According to The Humor Mill, Eric Murphy (Eddie's son) and Jasmine Lawrence (Martin's daughter) — who got engaged in November 2024 — have now tied the knot! Sources say they went for a Justice of the Peace ceremony surrounded by close family and friends. No word yet on a big Hollywood wedding, but hey, Martin was already grumbling about footing that bill — so maybe this was the perfect solution. Congrats to the newlyweds!

The Peabodys honor storytelling that matters — and I'm proud to say I'm a past recipient myself for my doc Mississippi Summer. And as we wrap up Women's History Month, Lifetime's Single Black Female franchise is back with its grand finale! The March 22nd premiere reunited fan favorites Raven Goodwin, Amber Riley, and K. Michelle for one last showdown — with Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams joining as Detective Ebony Williams and Kennedy Chanel as Joy, Simone's daughter.

You may know Roy Wood Jr. from his long stint on The Daily Show, his new CNN comedy show Have I Got News For You, or from his new standup special Lonely Flowers, which you can watch on Hulu. He also got a lot of attention hosting the White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2023, and I got to know him a bit this past December when he was honored by the Alabama Humanities Alliance. Roy lives in New York now, where he often appears on late night talk shows, but he built his career in the South. He studied broadcast journalism at Florida A&M in Tallahassee and worked as morning news reporter in Birmingham, but his true passion was going out on the road for weekend gigs at comedy clubs around the region. Sid talks to Roy about why his mom is the funniest person in his family, his brief obsession with the Popeyes chicken sandwich, and how his Southernness informs his comedy.
