BLACK STAR POWER AT THE SAG AWARDS
Monday, January 29, 2007
Talk about raking in the awards - Jennifer Hudson & Eddie Murphy both snagged SAG Awards last night in Los Angeles. They better keep that trophy case ready, I think those Oscars are going to be next.
Other black stars that walked away with trophies were: Forest Whitaker (Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role; The Last King of Scotland) and Chandra Wilson (Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series; Grey’s Anatomy)
A big shout out to my girl America Ferrera for snagging another award for Ugly Betty.
Chandra Wilson | America Ferrera | Will & Jada

Congratulations to all of the winners. Jennifer Hudson and Eddie Murphy are keeping Dreamsgirls alive. I’m especially proud of Forest. He’s such an experienced actor and is finally getting recognized for it.
Anika Noni Rose looks beautiful. I’m glad she’s out there reminding us that she was in the movie.
It’s nice to see Joy Bryant all dressed up. She looks very nice.
I’m not a fan of Nick, but he is looking like a cutie here.
Everyone else looks fantastic.

Congratulations to the winners. Jhud is doing her thing…I went to wikepidea the other day and looked at the list of awards she has won already, for her first attempt at acting. Very impressive.
Eddie is doing his thing too, it’s about time. The same goes for Forest, all brillinat actors.
Tracy is looking beautiful there.
I like the last picture…black successful brothers supporting each other…very nice.

I agree with you #3,more power and love to Forest Whitaker! It IS about time he gets recognized for the astounding actor that he is.He has come a long way, and with the way things look, ain’t no stopping him now.
Much love to America Ferrera, I loved her acceptance speech at the Globes. Am still to watch Ugly Betty, will only start airing here this month.

Vanessa looks simple and elegant…I like her.
Djimon deserves something too. I was watching Beauty Shop (DVD) again over the weekend and was impressed all over again at his character because he normally plays in those serious movies and this was much lighter for him.
Hm…JHud grils look scrumptious

Loved Chandra’s speech! And might I add that Will Smith looked so damn handsome with that beard.
Love it that Eddie and Forrest are finally being recognized for what they do. I have been a big fan of Eddie’s since I was a kid, staying up late and watching him on SNL and begging my Mom to let me watch Delerious, but she said no because it was too much cussing, then she finally gave in and let me watch the part about the “ice- cream”.
The last picture looks nice- black is so beautiful

I rarely get to say this but…damn, everyone looks fantastic. It’s wonderful to see folks all dressed up and looking wonderful.
I love Ugly Betty!! I’m so glad that she (America) won. It’s too bad that the cast didn’t win for ‘Best Ensemble’ even though my other favorite show, The Office, won!!

JHud looks gorgeous!! So does Anika. Jennifer better get ready for Oscar night. The only way she won’t be taking that one home is if the academy just starts hating for no reason.
Will and Jada are a gorgeous couple.
I think I shed a few tears at Chandra Wilson’s speech. It was so beautiful.
Yeaaaaaaah America Ferrera!!! That’s my bish!!!
Am I the only one who cringes every time Forest makes an acceptance speech? I’m happy he won but damn, they should play the music as soon as he gets up to the podium.

^^ Still haven’t seen the film Dreamgirls, but even though some say Anika’s getting looked over, that woman ALWAYS carries herself in a GRACIOUS manner. Has anyone noticed that?
Hopefully she’ll be around and getting good roles for some time.

Nice Picture of the “4 Brothers” -
Jennifer and Chandra’s speeches were so humble and sincere.
I was hoping for an award for Will Smith, but Forest Whitaker is tough competition.
Good Luck to them all @ the oscars.

I’m glad Forest Whitaker is finally being recognized, especially since not too many people saw King of Scotland.
Nick Cannon looks like a little kid, running around the red carpet taking pics with anybody famous he can! Eddie Murphy still looks, uh……..a little GAY!!

Who brought up SWSNBN? Why can’t we be proud of our black and latino (reference to America F.) people. Hate is not necessary, only negativity will hinder us. And just because she wasn’t there dosen’t means she doesn’t care.
P.S., congrats to Chandra, too!

I must say, everyone looked classy and sophisticated! Vanessa certainly redeemed herself on this one!
Tracey and Eddie are starting to grow on me. I LOVE Chandra on Grey’s Anatomy! She keeps me in stitches with her wise cracks!
That’s a nice photo of all the MEN togetha!
JHUD has amazed a lot of people! She can write and buy her own ticket now! YOU GO GIRL!

Young people, do not listen to the naysayers amongst our people. There are so many of us who have the victims mentality. They will tell you nothings changed, the proverbial “white man” is out to get us. That we’ve made no progress.
I beg to differ. I watch on tv in the 60s, our people being bit by dogs, bludgeoned with nightsticks and water hoses, hung on trees and jailed. All for the right to eat where they wanted, to walk in the front door, to vote.
While racism still exists, and we victimize our own(drugs, degenerate lyrics, and gangs)there has been a tremendous amount of progress made.
These awards are part of it. We have two black head coaches going to the Superbowl. We have many, many black pros, from lawyers to managers, to teachers, etc.,
Look forward young people. Serena Williams won the other day, but said something that disturbed me: She mentioned that some people talk about her as if she couldn’t come back, and that she was too big and out of shape. Why even dignify those people with acknowledgement, fuck ‘em.

@CARMEL Kid first of all you don’t have no place callin anyone a dumb ass are you in high school or what. Everyone know’s yeah Beyonce was in the movie but she didn’t get the starring role so sure she was invited but she wouldn’t HAVE to attend …. Ok now you put on your thinking cap she is an artist first and then an actress second and when they prepare for tours more than likely they won’t make all the appearences they are invited too.
63.

h town chic you dumb. you make excuses for beyonce absence, but yet and still she done made everyone other appearance. she didn’t come cause she jealous bitch and she cant take all the love jennifer is getting. you make excuses for her but you say everyone kill you for speculating why she was not there and you speculating too. you say she did not come cause maybe a tour. she did not come cause she has a jealous heart and she cant take it. when people say go away to beyonce they dont mean for stuff she suppose to be at. if you dont know that you real stupid.

xquizit_1 beyonce did not come cause she jealous ass bitch. yep i’m in high school and even i know beyonce is a jealous hearted cold calculating fake bitch. if she was nominated she would have came even if she was preparing for tour. so she should have come to support her castmembers but she cant cause she jealous bitch and she cant take all the attention jennifer is getting. she prolly know jennifer will win all these awards even oscar and then in about a year with her voice she bound to have grammys as well, and she will be ahead of beyonce cause beyonce aint getting a oscar cause she not oscar material. my thinking cap is on.

I saw Last King of Scotland over the weekend—Forest Whitaker better get that Oscar. He can play an African better than an African can play an African!!!! I left that theater saying “Cot Dayum.” Whitaker has inspired me–I just signed for an acting class to pursue as a hobby.
I love America Ferrara, another beautiful woman of color! I’m so glad she was included in the post. Kudos to CL!

Congrats. They are all doing it big this year. I wish them the best at the Oscars. Most of all J-Hud deserves it. She’s humble, and has this whole thing about her that she knows that it’s the grace of God that put her where she is and she doesn’t take it for granted. That’s what I like to see about people. Big upz to her and everyone.

i refuse to argue with the morones on this site. i may be young, but i speak better logic than the dumb ass people who wrote me a comment based off my opinion. too bad we in america and yet and still cant have an opinion on gossip webpage. i dont care what others think of me or my opinion cause nobody but my parents take care of me so who cares. beyonce is a jealous bitch and she was not at award show cause she can’t take the attention not being on her. i mean how many more times can she conjure up some attention with them crazy poses. she just jealous of jennifer and that that. dont hate cause you are not as insightful as me. old people take ginko bilboa and kiss my teenage ass.

Damn I missed it! I knew that it was coming on, but I got so busy, I forgot to watch it. Do u think they’ll broadcast it again like they did the Golden Globes? Anyhow everyone looked really nice. I cant wait for Jennifer to come out with her album. She’s working with Clive Davis and in my opinion I think she is on Whitneys level. Its been a long time since we have had a strong ass voice like whitney’s and I think Jennifer is bringing it back. Congratulation to all the winners. Just wish Will would have gotten something,
