Broadcaster, TV & Podcast Host and Founder of the @themainstreamuk @remel_london is on a mission... and we love it! ☺️💜

In a special commentary for the Voice, she shares how her recent stint in Hollywood supported one of her core values - celebrating Black women..

She says:

"Over the last two years I have been covering the USA’s largest annual celebration of Black music, culture, and community in New Orleans at Essence Festival.

I was shocked to find that I was the only British Press covering the event for its 30th Anniversary in 2024, so I’ve made it my mission to document what I believe to be one of the best events in the world: Celebrating Black Women"

"What a lot of people don’t realise is that most press opportunities are unpaid and as my platform, ‘The Mainstream’ is an Independent publication, I self funded this trip"

"I wanted to spread some joy and uplift not only the viewers but the interviewees who would be on the red carpet, especially in light of the BAFTA Awards N-Word controversy."

"This event was for us, so I wanted them to know that the Black Brits have their back"

Happy @bafta TV Awards day to all nominees and TV lovers! 🏆
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the @appletv BAFTA Brunch! It was so wonderful seeing so many of our favourite Apple TV stars and lots of creators being celebrated, ahead of the awards ceremony this evening, in the most beautiful setting on the roof at @sohohouse in the sunshine!

London truly is soooo delicious in the sunshine! ☀️
Thank you to the Apple TV team for having me 🫶🏾
