I have been a Toni fan from day one, and love her, so it’s great to see her still making a living.

I hope she comes out with something soon.

WOW!! That’s great especially since they said that only three people before her have a star. I’m glad she is getting some recognition. Her last album, LIBRA, was off the chain and I don’t think it did very well in sales.

I lived in Vegas for a year and I never even knew they had Walk of Fame. Anyway, good for Toni. She’s talented and deserves it even though the Flamingo is old and needs to be remodeled at least she’s the headliner.

Good for Toni. It would be nice to see her ditch those ashy wigs and go back to short, dark hair.
Damn– 1 in 150 kids born w/ autism? Is it something in the water??????

THAT’S WHAT’S UP. I GUESS SHE WOULD GET A STAR ON LAS VEGAS WALK OF FAME WIT ALL THEM SHOWS SHE DOES OUT THERE. WHEN SHE GONNA GET HER HOLLYWOOD STAR? ISN’T LONG OVERDUE? HMMM….ON SECOND THOUGHT MAYBE NOT. I DUNNO, I CONSIDER HER WORTHY. I THINK.

No it’s not too late for Toni to recieve a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, because later on this year Mariah Carey will be receiving her star on the Walk Of Fame, and u think she would’ve been had her star.

Good for Toni!! She has always been a great talent and I hope she makes a comeback soon! It would be a good addition to the recent female R&B artist comebacks (Mariah Carey…Mary J. Blige…)!!!

i am happy toni is gettin some accolades after her turbulant career, but i have to admit that she doesnt have it like she use too. she did a horrible performance at the all star game halftime show. it was boring and she was mumble every word she sang. the performance was uneventful. maybe she should just give it up and go back to acting. sorry toni.

________________

Acting in what? Toni acts? I missed that part. Do tell. The only thing I’ve ever seen her act in was an episode of Roc when it was on back in the day. Was she on soaps or something?

Anyway, good for her. I like Toni and I really want her to put out some new music. Plus, I am tired of seeing her coochie coo. And I agree. She needs to go back to the short do. It suits her pretty features best.

Congratulations to her! I highly respect the fact that she knows she’s talented and she went out there and got a Vegas show. She didn’t let the music industry and their “flavor of the month” world stop her from doing what she enjoys…entertaining.

Congrats Toni!!! You have completely taken over Las Vegas….EVERYONE says that your show is the can’t miss how out in Vegas…and the proof was in the pudding with Las Vegas giving you the NBA Halftime Show…

Wednesday, February 21, 2007 /

Thanks Tiana. For the NBA game Toni wanted to sing a slower song, but they told her to sing those faster numbers. Toni did a good job, but we all know her voice shines when she stands still and just SANGS and she does just that in Vegas, the Gospel Version of You Mean The World To Me is amazing and she also plays the piano and sings “This Will Be” by Natalie Cole its really a great show, so much love to Toni, she deserves it!

Having a child with autism myself I don’t see how she has the time or ENERGY to be doing so much lately. I don’t have money or a nanny though. Got to get on that. Glad for her. People, educate yourselves about autism because it will be coming to your world soon thru you, family, friend, or co-worker. 1 in 150 births are of autistic children.

Music is just not the same! Most of the stuff has been trash, and the good CD’s (Amerie’s last one) sits on the shelf. (Of course with the exception of Mary, her shit always moves units).

I did not know Toni has a heart condition? Then her son with autism, I read on of these blogs about how she found out and then they had an audio of her telling her story and crying! It made me cry to hear her telling it, I wish I could find that link and attach it!

She has been through alot, and I hope that she is stronger and wiser from it.

A STAR FOR WHAT???? HER NBA ALL-STAR GAME PERFORMANCE WAS WACK… SHE CAN’T EVEN SING.. ALL SHE DOES IS TALK HER SONGS IN HER DEEP LOW VOICE.WTF IS THAT???

@60

Your comment made no sense. Toni has one of the most unique voices of all times, in fact, no one else sounds like her in a world full of people who can sing, but sound alike. She has stage presence and her vocals are off the chain! so obvious you are a miserable human being who’s life is in the toilet, thats why you’re hating on a extremely successful entertainer. I mean if you’re going to hate, at least be honest, we don’t know you, you can point blank say, i just dont like her. You should try it, you’d feel better. And concreteloopers would respect you more. But your post was just dumb, and it wreaked “im ugly and i hate my life.” I dont know what you can do about your looks, but i hope you get a life soon.
