She looks pretty!
YEA I LOVE ME SUM CHELLE TOO, I HOPE SHE DO REAL GOOD IN THIS PLAY, CUZ PEOPLE PROBALY ALREADY 2 CRITICIZE HER!!!!!!!!!, O YEA AND SHE LOOK REAL GOOD IN THAT 2ND PIC…
Michelle better go ‘head. Though people may not know, Michelle has been doing her thing on the low. Little shit though here, and there. Unlike Kelly, she’s proving there is life outside of Beyonce’s ass!!
Go Michelle! I didn’t know that she is playing Shug. I nust be really late but anyways, she still is doing her thing. Good to see that there is still life after DC3.
Michelle looks like she put on some MUCH needed weight. She looks good. I can see her playing the Shug Avery role.
*singing* Siiiiiiistah…..LOL
thank god she put some meat on those bones! she was starting to look cracked out
Good for her she is not afraid to do her own thing thats what I admire about her & she looks cute on the cover.
I’d love to see the play! But I think I want to see the one in NYC with Tasia.
I want to see that play so bad. Hopefully I’ll get a chance before the year is over. Michelle looks so pretty on the cover.
Good for Chelle doin big things!

She reminds me of Vivica on the cover.
she looks absolutely stunning….that pic of her hugging herself..that picture is simply gorgeous…and yes it looks like shes gained weight!!she is looking mighty fine!get em chelle!!!
HAHA yer on the magazine cover, dats the dress she wore at L.A Reids 50th B’day..hmm wonder why she wearing it in this shoot….but im sure its not her decision what she wears in shoots..but omg she looks fab!!
Im real happy for Michelle. I am also happy she is doing something.
i love her. have anyone seen kelly’s myspace i wonder if it is hers or beyonce’s she needs to get new management like right now. her career will go down that toilet if she doesn’t. y is she not doing more promotions
She looks nice, good to see her doing her own thing.
OK MICHELLE!! IM REALLY HAPPY 4 HER AND SHE IS LOOKIN REALLY GOOD. I AGREE BOUT HER PUTTIN ON THAT WEIGHT AGAIN…..MUCH BETTER!
I absolutely love Michelle. She is a great talent and has still managed to stay humble. Being a spiritual person can keep you grounded.
Michelle truly looks like old school black glamour. BEAUTIFUL. Its funn how people always focus on Kelly/B******’s looks but overlook the fact that Ms.Michelle is beautiful in a very classical way. Do ur thang Miche!!!!
she looks good as shit. I’d fuck the hell out of her.
Go head Michelle, good for her!!!
I saw her perform two nights ago. She really did her thing. At first I didn’t think her personality would be able to pull off the Shug Avery character – we all know she’s a little raunchy – but she REALLY put it down. And she doesn’t sing Sista… *pout*..
This chick CANNOT sing.
HEY EVERYBODY ON CONCRETELOOP THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHELLE BUT, I WANT TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT ON MAY 15 DO NOT PURCHASE GAS. PLEASE WE ARE TRYING TO GET AS MANY PEOPLE INVOLVED AS POSSIBLE, WE NEED LET THE GAS COMPANIES KNOW THAT WE WON’T TOLERATE THE HIGH ASS GAS PRICES.
THANKS A LOT MY CL FAMILY!!!!
#14 I was going to say the same thing about the dress.
I like Michelle. She does look nice and about the weight thing. Everybody can’t gain weight like that……unless you take some pills – lol
I know I did! – lol
I had no idea she was playing Shug. I hope she does good, but either way I’m glad she’s spreading her wings. YAY Michelle!
Gosh where the heck have I been? I had no idea that Michelle is playing Shug Avery…Is this the same “Color Purple” that Fantashia’s in? Maybe I should just get the mag lol.
P.S. Got my Avitar yay!
yea chelle lookin real good, she doin her thang after d.c., “make dat money, dont let da money make u”—play’s club
Ummmm….The Title of this Mag says it ALL…
I love Michelle Williams and am so proud of her! She looks stunning in these pics! Get it girl!!!
I cannot wait to see this and I hear she has an R&B album coming out in Fall. So this is all a great look for her and im glad she’s doing her thing!
Is there some kind of soundtrack cuz I would Love to her her sing Shugs songs! I absolutely love this girl. She’s a STAR!
SHE LOOKS FABULOUS I LOVE MICHELLE ANYWAY…
Michelle is the shit. People sleep on her because she wasn’t the star of DC and her voice is so unique but she is nothing but TALENT! She will be successful because she is a good person who works hard and didn’t forget where she came from. TEAM MICHELLE!!!
GO Michelle, and ASENTHA Michelle can definitely sing and sounds alot better than Kelly live anyday. You might want to purchase the Destiny Fulfilled Concert DVD. Chelle looks stunning on the cover too.
She looks great. I hope she did her thang on stage.
Ok, why did I think she was going to play Celie. I am so late. U SHO IZ UGLY! LOL
She looks good!
Michelle looks fabulous and I know she’ll kill it on stage. I’ve had the pleasure of hearing her live … she sounds amazing. Best of luck to her!
Michelle, my belle, you look beautiful!
It’s about time she looks decent–Keep it up Michelle
kudos, girl – kudos
proud of her…rep chi-town michelle….
She looks nice! The best I’ve seen her! Go, Michelle!!!!!!!
good for her she looks nice
I must say Michelle have been looking better since the DC broke up. This makes you wonder if Matthew and Tina pursposely tone her and Kelly down to make Beyonce stand out more in the group. Good look Michelle.
^^i agree. i believe those tanning rumors (that they made michelle and farrah tan longer so they would be darker than bey) b/c when she first got into DC she was bey’s complexion then she started getting darker and her skin looked bad. her skin’s looking better now and she looks good. she probably still tans, just not as much. happy for her
“Violet Femme?” That’s such an awkward pun.
She looks good, but damn how old is she? She looks 45, but I know she’s only like 25 or 26 right?
wow she looks stunning y didnt she do her hair and makeup like this when she was in DC? itz like she wanted to look ruff anyway do ur thing girl.
She looks great.
