Lisa Vidal’s character on “Being Mary Jane,” has had to sacrifice a lot when it came to her family because of her demanding career. Kara Lynch (Lisa Vidal) was an executive producer on a talk show in Atlanta before moving to New York and away from her family to become a producer on the highest rated morning show in the country, “Good Day USA.” She, like many women, was the breadwinner of her household.

Michael Ealy’s character on “Being Mary Jane,” is intense and carries a stern demeanor to say the least, but Lisa Vidal assures us that that couldn’t be further from the truth when it comes to her costar in real life. “Michael Ealy is the prankster of all pranksters,” Vidal tells TheWrap. On the Bet series, Kara Lynch (Vidal) and Justin Talbot (Ealy) aren’t the best of friends — in fact, they former kind of hates the latter, but that obviously didn’t stop Ealy from messing with Vidal off screen.

Bet’s “Being Mary Jane” has a lot of dynamic characters that are sometimes a reflection of either ourselves or people we know. So, we’ve ranked them based on how much we like ourselves … or the people we know. Petty. Petty. Petty. And just when you start to feel a little sorry for her or start thinking she’s not so bad … she just unleashes more pettiness. Paul Patterson Probably our favorite person on the show. Every episode of “Being Mary Jane” is filled with so much chaotic drama that pops becomes the voice of reason and compassion that we all need.

Gabrielle Union is all for standing up for what she believes in, especially when it comes to equal rights for women and minorities.
Et's Courtney Tezeno caught up with the 44-year-old actress at the Los Angeles premiere of Last Christmas on Thursday, and chatted about why equal pay is so important in the entertainment industry. "My mortgage alone," Union quipped. "You know, I put in the same hours as most men -- if not more -- and I deserve to get paid the same."
She added, "Equal pay. Equal work. That's how it should be. Yeah, and if you stand up for nothing, you'll fall for anything."
