I hope this movie does really well. Like “Waiting to Exhale” type box office numbers.

I was saying the same thing Tianna, I know I heard something on the Radio about the two of them, but eeww that’s just nasty! Does’nt she keep up with the news?

They all look wonderful….I love the darker hair on Bey!!! I cant wait to see this movie…its going to do great things for all of their careers!!! Good luck to all of them…especially BEYONCE!!!!

jay looks cute…

Everyone looks FAB-U-LOUS But Anika is glowing! I dunno how I feel about Fatima’s hair but it’s good to see her out & about…I’m guessing she choreo’d the Dreams moves in the movie.

I wish all three girls success. go head y’all and eddie cracks me up with that smirk

Wow, everyone looks great, but Anika Noni Rose looks so pretty. I really like her dress.

model Selita Ebanks IS GORGEOUS

The dreamgirls look good. they poliushed up very nicely, very classy. I can’t wait for this movie.

Selita has nice legs, I wouldn’t mind that brushing up against mine, and more…..

Yes it’s coming, it’s coming! Lenny Kravitz looking good as hell. Tyler Perry is gaining weight. Queen Latifah looks likes she’s putting on weight everyday. That is all.

Damn Mista looks skinny and sick. I hope he’s okay.

Finally!!! Beyon let’s somebody be in the middle besides her. THANK YOU JESUS!!!

Everybody looks good, even Eddie for a change.

Very Nice.
I hope the Movie does well

LOL @ #26. You got issues. LOL

Everyone looks great. Jamie is looking particularly fly! Good to see Fatima out and about. She was pretty high-profile until Aaliyah’s death, and then it’s like her and Hype Williams both went into seclusion for a while. They are too talented to be hiding. I’m glad they are rejoining us!

AND CHECK OUT MAMA TINA!!! I ain’t mad at her!!! She is showing these younguns she still got it. LOL She looks great for age.

#30
You are so right, Anika looks gorgeous!!!

Latifah is wearing the hell outta that coat!

Between Jen and Bey, there are about 10 cold ass horses running around some Koreans woman’s weave farm, freezing their asses off.

Did anyone notice Jay z suite color matches the color of Beyonce’s dress.Jennifer need to wear a Nancy Gan under that Dress Anyways black star power.

Jennifer is going to be a star no matter how much Beyonce try to rain on her parade.

Terrence has a very beautiful little lady on his hands

For Beyonce’s mama to be a stylist ,she sure do need to change her own-it looks like she have the same thing on everytime I see her

Jamie looks great, Queen rockin the hell out of that fur, Fatima needs an award because she is THE TRUTH, who is Keith Robinson?

The ladies look beautiful but Beyonce and Jennifer’s dresses need to go, they have this certain curtain-like look going on with them..LOL…Im just saying

GO JENNIFER!!!

Everyone looks very nice in these pics…

OMG Beyonce look JUST like her mama…thats exactly what Bee will look like in 20 years.

Duh…Anika in the middle to keep them two from going at each other. With all the tension surrounding Jennifer’s Oscar performance and Bee’s mediocre performance, I wouldn’t be surprised if there have already been a few tiffs.

No one ever seems to mention Anika Rose in the film. She is so cute and I love her dress more then Beyonce’s! Her look is cute and elegant at the same time.

BEYONCE IS KILLIN THEM GIRLS IN THEM PICS AND NOT 2 B MEAN SHE MAKE DEM OTHER GIRLS LOOK LIKE SHYT! BEE IS MY GIRL, I LOVE HER THEM HOES CANT EVEN COMPETE! AND ANIKA IS NOT CUTE J HUD IS CUTE THOUGH AND I JUST LOVE HOW BEE AND JAY IS MATCHING AND DAT 4TH DREAM GIRL IS REALLY PRETTY 2! NOW DATS WHO SHOULD OF BEEN IN DA GROUP.

Everyone looks nice. But I thought that Beyonce always has to be in the middle of all her pictures also. LOL!

Why isnt the 3rd Dreamgirl getting any attention?!

Beyonce has A LOT OF WEAVE!!! I can barely see her face with all that hair surrounding it!

#46 You Are Crazy! My only comment is on Jamie’s hairline, it just looks un-natural! But I guess if women are wearing lacefront, he can wear paint-on.

For JHud to make it real big, she would have to lose some weight and get more sex appeal. Thats my opinion. I think she is gorgeous but if she lost a lil bit, not too much, she will have better chances. Besides that everyone looks real good.

That third dreamgirl that nobody ever talks about. Has she ever been in anything else?

@58

The 3rd dreamgirl, Anika Noni Rose, won a Tony a couple of years ago for Caroline, or Change. She’s also from my hometown of Bloomfield, CT. Holla!

In 2004, Rose was awarded the Theatre World Award, Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Featured Actress and the Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical, for Caroline, or Change.

EVERYONE LOOKS GREAT!! WTF IS UP WITH TRACEE EDMONDS FACE?? I HOPE ITS A PICTURE ISSUE WHY IS HER FACE ALL JUMBLED UP?? MAMA KNOWLES PLEASE

FATIMA IS THE DA BOMB AINT SHE???

What is the deal with all the comments about there being a “beef” between Jennifer and Beyonce? I’ve read nothing to that effect…but feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Or, is the deal that we as black people will perpetuate “other” people’s stereotypes about us, black women in particular, that we can’t get along and can’t really be sisters and can’t be there for each other?

I think all three of these women are beautiful and I wish each of them much success with the movie and in their career endeavors. Why can’t we ALL be happy that a major black film is getting so much hype and recognition and all stand together and support it and each other??

I just don’t get it, but maybe it’s just me.

School a sister, please!!!

Everyone looks great, and I can’t wait for the movie!!! I don’t see a reason why negativity was needed in this post, but oh well…

#58 She’s actually a Broadway actress/singer. She won a Tony for Best Feature Actress In A Musical for her role in a play called “Caroline, Or Change”.

They all look good -
Though the movie has deviated somewhat from the stage play, I understand it is a good movie.

Make sure you support it the first weekend - when it really counts. I think it premieres in most theatres on Christmas Day.

Damn Danny Glover looks ancient! Lethal Weapon is an older movie than I thought…

I think Anika looks drop dead gorgeous. The dress, the hair, the makeup. She is just stunning! Good luck to all of these ladies. She is really petit.
The men are all looking really wonderful too. That is just too much beauty in one place. LOL

Stars of “Dreamgirls” upstaged by newcomer Hudson !!!

By Mark Egan
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The movie adaptation of the famed Broadway musical “Dreamgirls” stars Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx, chart-topping singer Beyonce Knowles and long-time favorite Eddie Murphy.
But in true show business tradition, an overweight unknown more used to failure than success is stealing the show.
“It’s the biggest honor I could possibly get. I’m so grateful,” Jennifer Hudson says of the buzz that she may win an Oscar for her Cinderella turn in the role of Effie White.
“I’m so grateful. All I wanted was the part, and to hear this now? It’s very exciting,” the actress and singer told Reuters.
If Hudson is surprised by the talk of an Oscar, it’s because her resume was rather thin: She is a college drop-out with six months’ experience singing on a cruise ship who later reached a mere seventh place on the TV audition show American Idol.
Now her silver screen debut has already won her fans even before the movie opens in New York and Los Angeles on December 15 and nationwide on December 25. At media screenings, the press have greeted Hudson’s performance with whooping applause.
Her biggest ovation comes during her rendition of “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” — the emotional show stopper in the original 1981 Broadway show, which won six Tony Awards.
The New York Observer described her performance of that song as “five mellifluous, molto vibrato minutes that have suddenly catapulted Ms. Hudson … into the position of front-runner for the best supporting actress Oscar.”
Newsweek said that when moviegoers hear Hudson sing the song, she “is going to raise goose bumps across the land.”
The movie tells the story of a group of black female singers and is loosely based on the story of Diana Ross and The Supremes and the Motown record company. Hudson’s part is that of the hefty, difficult singer in the trio.

Hudson credits her voice to her Baptist upbringing in Chicago, where she belted out songs in church from age 7.
“I used to sing in the church choir,” she said. “People would say it was unusual for such a small girl to have such a big voice. They would say, ‘She sounds like she’s grown.”‘
Casting director Jay Binder, known for his work on major Broadway productions, said he is proud of choosing Hudson.
“It’s not like we found her working at the telephone company, but it’s the best piece of casting this office has ever done,” he said in an interview.
The part was no slam dunk for Hudson. After her first audition, Binder told her he liked her but said while she could make it on Broadway, she would have to lose some weight and work on her image if she were to make it in Hollywood.
“She was not as glamorous as we needed her to be. She needed to develop her figure in a more pleasing way,” Binder said. “We then went on, over the next six months, to see every African-American woman of a certain age on both coasts.”
After a nationwide search, countless auditions and open-casting calls failed to turn up the perfect Effie White, Binder remembered Hudson and called her back.
“When she came back six months later she was absolutely gorgeous. She was not a girl but a woman,” he said. “Without a question, it was her part. Whatever she had done, she now had sex appeal and was more comfortable in herself.”
Now as Hudson promotes “Dreamgirls” and is preparing to record an album for legendary recording executive Clive Davis, who made stars of the likes of Whitney Houston and Alicia Keys, she’s finding all the attention a little hard to believe.
“I have to pinch myself,” she said. “Am I really doing interviews? Is this really happening? Even on the movie set, I was stopping and asking myself, ‘Am I dreaming?”‘

Thanks Bill,
That was great. I am so happy for her.
Wow, talk about being ready when the opportunity comes knocking. She got herself together after that first casting call.

Criticism can make all the difference sometimes. Good or bad.

You go JHud!

I think all of the ladies here look beautiful! I really am anticipating this movie and Jennifer Hudson’s performance. I’m so happy for her I don’t know what to do! Go get that Oscar, girl.

Nice pics! I bet Usher is kicking himself in the butt right now. He had a part and then backed out, the show went on without him. Oh and I think Jennifer Hudson’s dress would have been perfect had it been just below the knee, instead of a floor gown. jmo

OH WOW!!! I Love to see Beautiful Black People all dressed up … Everyone looks great! Can’t wait to see this movie.

Queen Latifah is posing like: F*&^ PETA! I have to say Eddie and Tracey are actually a handsome looking couple! Jennifer and Bey could have dressed a little bit better but hey… And Bey stated she doesn’t have beef with JHud and she wishes her much success in fact she realizes the movie Dreamgirls is intended to make Effie the stand out character. Where do ya’ll get the info that there was a beef? Ya’ll know Matthew Knowles is a cheerleader mom but that doesn’t mean she has the same attitude. Anyway, Jamie=Suave. Anika=cute. Mama Knowles- hated it!

wow…i almost didnt notice bey in the first pic
guess they put anika in the middle cuz of the buzz aint about her no more…anika looks great and the body is bangin….bey looks good..went for her typical big hair thing..jenn is pretty

Didn’t Jennifer Holiday upstage Loretta Devine and Sheryl Lee Ralph back in 1982? I mean, the play climaxed with Effie singing, “And I’m Telling You”!

Kobe never upstaged Shaq, because the roles were different! When it was time for the Diesel to bust a move…#8 got out of the way! No upstage…just different callings!

Beyonce knew when she took the part that this was no “Fighting Temptations” role where she went on stage at the end to help the Calvary Baptist Church chior win the the Gospel Explosion competition!

No upstage…different calling!
