Host Your Very Own #WithThisRing Watch Party!!

With This RingI am so happy to be supporting my colleague, New York Times best-selling author Denene Millner, editor of MyBrownBaby.com and her friends Angela Burt-Murray, former editor of ESSENCE magazine and founder of CocoaFab.com, and Mitzi Miller, EBONY magazine editor-in-chief. Together these ladies wrote a novel, “The Vow” that has been turned into an original Lifetime movie!  “With This Ring” will air on January 24th!!  The movie will star Jill Scott, Regina Hall and Eve!

Here is the basic premise of the film:

After attending the wedding of a friend on New Year’s Eve three friends (Trista (Regina Hall), a career-driven talent agent, Viviane (Jill Scott), a successful gossip columnist, and Amaya (Eve Jeffers Cooper), a struggling actress) decide to make a pact to get married by either finding new loves or re kindling an old love by the end of the year.  Each of their current relationships or lack there of comes with it’s own brand of drama that we will all get to watch them work through.

Along with the airing of “With This Ring” viewers are encouraged to host their very own #WithThisRing Watch Parties!  This will not be hard because the ladies have put together EVERY thing that you might need to host one including:  Suggested cocktails, desserts and even a music playlist!!  All you have to do is gather your friends and prepare to watch.  Lifetime has been placing more focus on African American films lately and I am glad to see some of my favorite stars getting together to bring this movie to us.  It’s a movie about friendship, sisterhood and relationships… in other words right up my alley!

Here is a great scene from the movie featuring Jill Scott
