Quinta Brunson made a name for herself with the help of Buzzfeed's video team. She's created some of the most memorable clips from the media giant, and now she's creating her own series.
Broke is a YouTube red original series that originated in short sketches for Buzzfeed. The 11 episode series follows the lives of three Black millennials who are navigating lives without funds but still manage to maintain deep bonds.
YouTube Red costs $9.99 a month and allows access to all of its programming. Watch the trailer below.
When you've spent much of your life with chemically straightened hair, the process of getting re-introduced to your natural hair texture has its ups and downs.
Though you'll love your hair, you might miss, for fleeting moments, the ease of managing your 'do post-relaxer. This latest Buzzfeed video featuring Quinta Brunson perfectly captures that moment in a new video.
In it, she's contemplating what to do with her hair once she takes her braids out. (Sound familiar?) As she's wandering through a beauty supply store, a box of perm named Shanice calls out to her. The exchange is hilarious.
Buzzfeed employs a number of our favorite Black internet personalities. That's why we were so disappointed in their new video "27 Questions Black People Have for Black People." The video features a series of Buzzfeeders regurgitating Black stereotypes and posing them as questions.
Quinta B. stars in the latest edition of Broke that takes on the despair that student loans bring. For many, student loans are just a fact of life. We try to handle them the best we can.
Everyone knows Black moms don't play when it comes to discipline, dating, and spending but they do it out of love. The BuzzFeed team put together a hilarious video of the things Black moms say.
Daysha Edewi takes on the all too common "you don't know you're beautiful" trope in a new video from BuzzFeed, holding up lyrics from One Direction, John Legend, Ne Yo and more in which these male artists reassure women of their beauty.
In a Buzzed “In Real Life” (IRL) video, Daysha Edewi shares things she wishes she could tell her mother. Edewi begins by talking about how her mother believes that she is a pretty girl but also shames her by making harmful comments. “Nothing hurts me more, than to hear that my thighs have gotten fatter, or that being a sexual person makes me a bad daughter,” she said.
Black women have long known the struggle of finding "nude" clothing and accessories that actually match our skin tones. We have never understood why colors that would be more accurately titled "pale beige" or "cream" should be accepted as the default skin color for everyone. Well, leave it to BuzzFeed to hilariously show what it's like to be a Black woman wearing "neutral" (read: neutral for fair-skinned people) clothing and makeup.
Despite our generally disdain for Olitz, 'Scandal's' Olivia Pope is still one of the hottest characters on television. But we all couldn't off the beloved fixer's antics in real life.
When you're Black in corporate America, or any job for that matter, getting through the day can be a struggle. Buzzfeed perfectly captures the microaggressions Black folks experience in the workplace everyday. It's hilarious and painfully accurate.
Despite concerns, I think it's clear that the The Real Housewives and other reality TV stars are not real depictions of Black women. They are acting out in ways they know will create compelling stories.
Despite the increasing prevalence of interracial relationships, cultural ignorance persists. Buzzfeed created a video to parody some of the more ridiculous things white men say to black women when they're trying to holla at.
