Like Leona Lewis, Janet Jackson is a musician first and foremost. Unlike Lewis, Jackson has shown an active interest in acting, and has a number of television and film roles to her name. You'd have thought that would mean that she was open to the idea of kissing people while in character, but apparently not. She did eventually agree to kiss Tupac Shakur while filming 'Poetic Justice,' but it took a lot of persuasion.
Although Shakur and Jackson sizzled on screen together, it sounds like Shakur found her hard to work with. She's heard rumors that Shakur was something of a 'player,' and so tried to insist that he was tested for AIDS before kissing her - which suggests Jackson's understanding of how the illness is transmitted could use some work! A deeply offended Shakur refused. Jackson eventually kissed him anyway. We doubt they spoke much afterward.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
