  Beyonce Wrote An Inspiring Poem About Blue Ivy, And Yes, You’re Going To Feel Feelings... 'I am a vessel,' she muses in 'Bey the Light.' While the rest of us were merely existing on this earth at sluggish, pollution-spewing speeds,  Beyoncé found time in between her concert tour, V.M.A. award acceptance feat, and residency as the planet’s goddess in chief to create more art. Specifically, she posed for  this month’s issue  of  CR Fashion Book , the high-fashion magazine put out by  Carine Roitfeld , former editor in chief of  Vogue  Paris and present-day  collaborator of  North West . In the photo spread, by photographer Pierre Debusschere, Beyoncé poses with a custom-designed Chanel surfboard. She squeezes blood-red juice from a pomegranate while covered neck-to-toe in Prada.

“B lack-ish,” a sweet, likable sitcom premiering on ABC next month, doesn’t take very long to declare a thesis statement: “Sometimes I worry that, in order to make it, black folks have dropped a little bit of their culture and the rest of the world has picked it up.” This is part of an opening voice-over by Anthony Anderson, playing a wealthy suburban dad. Produced by Comedy Central’s Larry Wilmore, “ Black-ish ” has been given a plum time slot after “Modern Family,” and it registers as a slightly more provocative version of that show. There’s a stubborn dad, an exasperated wife, a self-involved teenage girl. There are also jokes about O.J. Simpson, the L.A. riots, and a “negro inflation tax.”  The elder son wants a bar mitzvah, and younger one doesn’t realize that Barack Obama is the first black president. If the “Modern Family” subtext is, w hen it comes to family, we’re all the same , then “Blackish” is responding,  Well, not exactly . Despite some appealing performances
