Actress Nia Long is on the cover of February 2007′s issue of Essence. Long finally steps out and speaks on the relationship drama in her life – remember that rumor we posted about last summer, involving her and two men fighting at a mall?
on if the scuffle that took place last summer is true:
Yes. But I want to get this straight: It wasn’t my fault. i didn’t start it; I didn’t throw any punches. It was one man’s ego against another man’s pride. It was all about them.
Read the rest of the article here. She looks amazing in this issue.
it’s always beautiful to see beautiful people progress and grow… this cover does her justice. that incident does not.. but it’s all the past right?
2nd! Nia looks fantabulous.
Now that’s a Ride or Die Chick!! She hasn’t aged a bit since Boyz in the Hood [thank the Lawd she got those eyebrows taken care of]!
Nia Long looks great but when is she gonna be in another movie?She is a good actress.I will probably pick up this issue of Essence.

SHE L00KS BEAUTIFUL
I LOVE Nia Long and wish she could et more work instead of the silly movies she does. I mean they’re funny, but she has great acting chops. She’s doing some work on Boston Legal thpugh, so I’m happy for her. She’s always been gorgeous and seems prettier now than she ever was. You go girl!
Nia long is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood.
Nia is a gorgeous woman, but somehow this cover pic doesn’t showcase her looks right.
SEXY AS ALL HELL!
NIA’S COVER LOOKS SIMPLE & FRESH
She’s definately 1 of the consistantly fab ladies in HollyHood.
and as far as the fighting shit goes; you can take the girl out the hood… yall know the rest
She just looks fantastic! Wow, Nia. See negroes were causing drama and she got all the bad press huh?
Nia Long is a Beautiful Woman!!! I wish her the best!!!
Damn she is gorgeous.
If Yao is dating her, man he is very lucky.
CLASSIC BEAUTY!
I LUV THE SIMPLICITY OF HER BEAUTY
NOT UBER GLAMMED UP LIKE SUM PPL WE KNOW
She looks great!
i agree with 26.
testing 123
Ok Im back up and running?!?!! I think Nia is timeless. We all agree she gets better w/age. She seems like a down ass chick who is super classy. She’s doing her thing right now and I think 07 is gonna be big for her. As a side note: for those of you who dont know, she’s breaking into directing and co-directed Ashanti’s “Baby” video along with Yolanda Adams’ “This too shall Pass”. You go girl
Oops one more thing…maybe Im a little behind but can someone tell me WHO in the world is Yao Ming (this person she is allegedly dating)?
She’s absolutely gorgeous.
32, hes a basketball player.
and WOW if she is dating him LOL
Some of you guys avatars are so pretty. go head girls. and i like nias hair better short. sorry but everybody doesnt look right with weaves imo
Gorgeous! this girl is what beauty is about…natural radiance, no visible plastic surgery, great skin, chocolate skin….just gorgeous.
NIA is FAB!!! But she still didn’t answer wether or not that other “MAN” that was fighting was Reggie Bush. That’s what I need to know. Cause that boy got it goin’ on!
And Nia dating YAO? Where did that come from. I hope that ain’t true cause that’s just UGLY! LOL!
Ya’ll need to STOP spreading rumors, cause I REFUSE to even believe that. LOL!!
She is so beautiful..I hope she starts getting more serious roles instead of crappy films like are were there yet and its oooo sooo anticipated sequel….also Im so freaking tired of that “no homo” crap when a person makes a complement about another of the same sex! You say no homo but apparently you are lol Bill is the worst
pretty pictures.
is it just me or does she look alot like Free from 106 and Park?
Thanks Tianna :>) I actually did a search on him after I posted that (I prolly shoulda did that BEFORE I posted my comment) and when I saw a pic of him I KNEW the person who said she’s dating him was J-O-K-I-N-G B-I-G T-I-M-E LMAO
Kudos to Nia still looking refreshed as a Sunday morning……If she is dating Yao or whoever I’m sure she knows what she’s doing. Thats my girl!!!!
I THINK THAT NIA DOES LOOK BETTER WITH SHORT HAIR BECAUSE SHE HAS A PRETTY FACE BUT SHE LOOKS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL WITH LONG HAIR
Lmao @ Tianna, Wow forreal…anyway, she looks beautiful!
awww i hope she comes out with something soon b4 summer hits. i need something 2 watch in iraq jeez.
but she looks beautiful like always… no homo
I would love to see her in more films. She can set off the screen, and she did her thing in the Kanye video. Who did she tell him she was?! “I’m Nia F#@$%ing Long!” LOL with her bird legs.
Something about Nia Long just makes me happy! She seems like she’d be a cool friend. I think it’s time she got her “big part”. It makes me sad to see such a talented actress get looked over while other big-named pop stars who are more “readers” than actors get nominated for Golden Globes. I hope 2007 is good to Nia.
Oh, and that whole fight incident just makes me like her more. It’s good to know that she still has a ‘lil street in her.
I love nina, she is soooooooooooooo beautiful, I’ve been in love with her since love jones. nina hit me up (415) 889-3251 I’m single at the moment
LOL!! Nia is not dating no DAMN YAO MING!….she go up to that mans knee cap! I wouldn’t even want to begin to visualize what that would look like! None the less, Nia is a BAD chick.
*Naturally Beautiful….CHECK.
*Cool Personality….CHECK.
*Keeping it REAL, with a BEAT DOWN every now and then…CHECK!
Get EM’ GIRL!!
LONG OR SHORT SHE DOES HAIR VERY WELL. SHE IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL SISTER. SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED BLACK ACTRESSES. SHE SHOULD DO VERY WELL IN 07. HOPE THEY DON’T SLEEP ON HER. SHE IS VERY SMART, BEAUTIFUL JUST PLAIN OLD GOOD FOR THE EYES. I’LL PICK UP ESSCENCE FOR SURE. DON’T CHANGE FOR ANYONE NIA KEEP BEING TRUE TO YOU AND YOUR GOD. BLESSINGS WILL KEEP COMING.
She looks nice, but oh lord@the article.
I was kidding about Yao Ming being the athlete Nia is dating. He’s a 7’4 Japanese bball player for the Houston Rockets that speaks little to no english and Nia aint desperate. God, you guys are so gullible and thirsty for gossip.
gorgeous…
#37 I see you can’t read. She said the other guy wasn’t not famous and that she only met Reggie Bush once at a party.
She’s beautiful.
That’s a nice article too…she sounds very smart and know what she wants…there’s nothing more sexier in a woman.
Nia Long is one of my favorite Black actresses, not only for the roles she chooses to play, but for the way she carries herself off-screen as well… I also admire Sanaa and Angela… now on to the real meat of my comment:
Y’all, this issue of Essence had 6 Valentine’s day proposals in it, one to one of my classmates from college. Her name is Dierdre and his is Kerry (i think). If you have time at all today or before the deadline, please vote for them to win a honeymoon in South Africa. U can do so by visiting the website. Thanks in advance for those who do so.
She is flawless, I have always admired her beauty.
It seems like she keeps getting better with time…besides that one incident you never hear her name mentioned for something crazy. That is amazing considering the fact she has been in the industry for years now.
Beautiful Woman-
Very Talented actress.
She look amazing!!!
nia’s my girl….she’s my sister by my other mother…(lol)
Nia looks great. I want those sandals she has on in the last pic. They are fiyah.
