NIA LONG COVERS ESSENCE
Sunday, January 7, 2007
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.

glad to see her finally back on the scene. She is truly one of the more talented black actresses that we have.
I see where she also has a part on one of those television legal shows.
Nia Long, Gabrielle Union, Vivica Fox, Wendy Raquel Robinson, Angela Basset and Malinda Williams are the only versile talented black actresses out there. Comedy, drama, action…these girls can handle it.

To #84, dont forget Halle Berry and Kelita Smith, Taji Henderson, Queen Latifa, Eve and so many others. Black actors have it going on, we do have talent and we are kicking down the doors.

I love Nia. She is one of our best!!!
But IMHO, She needs to pick more diverse roles so that white hollywood can see her TRUE talent, instead of type casting her in these all black cast movies. Her potential is MUCH MORE than the roles she pics
I can’t wait to get this issue. WHAT is this issue that everyone is talkin’ about? I know it’s not the incident when her baby daddy got TOSSED UP by fine ass Regie Bush for oversteppin’ his boundaries? Cuz if so……that is OLD NEWS out her in LA!!!
But it’s still funny as hell lol

#64….HOW_IN_DA_HELL are you going to say that you are tired of these chicks that look pretty but can’t act (i.e Beyonce and Halle)? You have that argument about Beyonce, but Halle is an academy award winning actress. They don’t just give academy awards away at the door ya know. If that was the case, then everyone would have one. To put their name’s in the same sentince is just disrespectful to Halle. Hell, my three year old neice could ACT better than Beyonce.
#69…Nia long has been replaced by Meagan Good huh? In what world? The same way Tyrese said Meagan is the new HALLE BERRY! LOL! Would ya’ll quit saying that FOOLISH sh*t about that girl. Cause all ya’ll are doing is getting HER clownt in the process.

If you people believe that Nia is dating Yao Ming then let me add that the mystery man in the scuffle at the mall was O.J.

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.
Well - it’s now posted on mediatakeout -

She looks beautiful in these pics! I’m glad she’s looking good again b/c I was about to cancel her out with Vivica Fox for looking too old and ashy way to soon!

She’s beautiful and she real too. She’s not like these other suck up actresses that think they the shit but they really not. Half of these actresses dnt even look worth nothing without make up but u can look at her and tell she has natural beauty and she carries herself as a woman, not a slut.
