Teyana Taylor is standing tall in the spotlight, defending her Golden Globe–winning performance in One Battle After Another. Critics say her character Perfidia is overly sexualized, but Taylor insists the role is strategic—a survival tool rather than exploitation. She pointed out that Perfidia handles a gun before anything else and only leans into sexuality when it furthers her revolutionary mission—especially as she grapples with postpartum depression and society’s expectations of Black women. Taylor hopes audiences see her not as a caricature, but as a complex badass whose sexuality is weaponized, not fetishized.  

The DLHS crew sparked serious discussion during the Question of the Day, over whether you could date someone with terrible hygiene. From “roaches in the carpet” to oily hands, the consensus was clear—cleanliness matters more than chemistry—people won't compromise basic hygiene even for a perfect partner. Hygiene wasn’t just surface‑level; a dirty space often signals deeper issues, and it becomes a non‑starter.  

R&B legend Jeffrey Osborne brought smooth vibes to the show, sharing his journey from drummer to lead singer with LTD, and ultimately to solo success. He explained how his voice, not songwriting, made him stand out, and how he grew by pushing for solo recognition even while in the band. Fans got a look at the musical roots behind chart‑topping classics like “On the Wings of Love.” Meanwhile, Outside the studio, Osborne is hitting the road—he kicked off his January tour in Greenbelt, MD, and has more shows lined up through spring.
