The Shade Room

The Shade Room

The Shade Room, often referred to as TSR, is a media outlet established by Angelica Nwandu in March 2014. This Instagram-centric platform provides updates on celebrity gossip frequently, particularly focusing on the African American community. The New York Times has described it as the "TMZ of the internet." Here, "shade" is a slang term that signifies gossip. Based in Los Angeles, Nwandu leads a team of 11 individuals who contribute to The Shade Room. While it has similarities to MediaTakeOut, The Shade Room distinguishes itself by primarily sharing its news through Instagram.
