FINALLY, SOMETHING NEWS WORTHY!!!!! IM FROM COMPTON CALIFORNIA AND PROUD THE SISTA’S ARE REPPIN’ US ALL! WAY TO GO! WHITE AMERICA SHOULD HAVE THEIR “SUPERSTARS” TAKE A LOOK…..LINDSEY, BRITNEY, AMY WINO-HOUSE, ETC…..WE ARE DOING THE DAMN THANG YALL!

Glad to Aretha still doing her thing!

Go venus!!!!!

Go head Black people. I love Venus and Serena. Very positive sisters. You gotta love them.

Wow everyone looks good great to see black people out supporting each other nice!!! Congrats to Venus and Serena!!

OOhh i luv serenas hair

i watched it last night it was awesome. phylicia rashad looks beautiful

LOL Richard Williams reminds me of my paw-paw with those shorts on

EEeewww!!!! I’m no fan of Star Jones, but she can do so much better than that low-life Al. He looks so gay to me and I just couldn’t be with a man that looks fruity. I think she was jujst desparate to have a man by her side she settled for him and the love just grew

Phylicia Rashad is gorgeous! Aging only made her look better! Love Sarena’s face in that last picture! Black is BEAUTIFUL!

Yes I love it!!!!!

I meant Glad to see Aretha still doing her thing

Go Venus and Serena, those are my girls right there, they make us proud. Aretha Franklin needs our prayers and our help from Star Jones to lose weight. Star Jones lost weight and got herself a fine man Al he looks good. Aretha please lose weight before you have a heart attack. Love your voice, but you look a mess.

The fact that Phylicia Rashad was there is enough for me lol.I love her

Glad everyone came out to support the Williams sisters. Black people represent.
Common looks gorgeous as usual

I used to think Phylicia Rashad aka Mrs Cosby was so fine. She has aged gracefully. I’ll put her to bed, bed, bed

Richard Williams is crazier than a fish with titties. Venus and Serena buy that man some pants, PLEASE! He probably thinking Tina Turner ain’t got shit on my legs.

Just good to see blacks coming together for a good cause

BLACK STAR UNITY & POWER

Wow. Nice. All these legends in one place is the business (Aretha, Roberta, Zina, Debi, Jackie, Gladys …). Phylicia Rashad is georgeous. Loves her.
I’ll never get tired of seeing Common. Even Starr looks nice here. Sorry I can’t say the same for Al. He looks like a retarded reporter. I know that’s not politically correct. So sue me.

What has happened to Zina Garrison? Is she expecting? No, Serena’s hair does not look good….look VERY CLOSELY at the front…oh girl, needs to get a relaxer!

@17 CRAZIER THAN A FISH WITH TITTIES! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU FROM? I’VE NEVER SEEN OR HEARD OF THAT!!!LOL

WOw Debi ( or should I call her Dr. Thomas) looks the same. I remember watching her when I was in elementary school during the 1988 Olympics, it was 88 right? Finally, a post that doesn’t involve blind items, rumors, hoes, bad weaves or skanks.

Where Aretha Franklin is concerned the first step, is her family and friends need to do an intervention. Admit your problem is food. Once Aretha admits she has a problem form a circle around her and throw away all of her food, then her son has to make her run track or walk. I’m thinking Aretha is like the fat chick on Norbit, thinks she is fine and skinny people are evil and not fine, wake up Aretha you look a hot mess, please do an intervention.

I got it from R. Kelly’s trapped in the closet. After he said that I just cut it off. That’s all I needed to hear.

Y’all b**ches are too fast… (still embarrassed, but it’s all good)

Phylicia Rashad looks really good, though

Most of these folks look good.

Wow! @ Aretha’s…ummm…wig/weave.

Damn Common….could you please be my baby daddy! You are so fine!!!!!!

Wow that was a celebrity event.

I am too weak @ # 17, J. Lewis’ avatar.
I was wondering who that was in the picture with Gladys.

Glad the girls one good luck to them and I agree #11 Phylicia Rashad looks beautiful and Janet is lookin good too

OH MY GOD!

WHAT A WONDERFUL REPRESENTATION OF BLACK STAR POWER!

ARETHA FRANKLIN LOOKS ESPECIALLY NICE-

EVERYONE ELSE DOES ALSO!

CONGRATS TO THE WILLIAM SISTERS-THEY ARE SO TALENTED

J. Lewis, I am at work, you gonna get me into trouble. The girl behind me just turned around to ask what I was laughing at.

Say it loud I’m black and I’m proud. Love it

@33, Blame it on Akon

Good for everybody and LOL @ J Lewis

Debbie Thomas, Zina Garrison, Phylicia Rashad, I am in heaven, Richard Williams look like Cousin’ Pete from Poetic Justice, I’m sure Janet had a flash back when she seen his ass.

Janet is starting to look like LaToya. creepy

AL LOOKS A MESS IN DAT PIC, SERENA AND VENUS’S BODIES ARE BANGIN! CLAIR IS GETTIN OLD! SO MUCH GRACE THOUGH. JANET LOOKS CONFUSED, LOVE HER BRACELETS, AND COMMON IS FINE, I LOVE HIS SWAG, AND I REMEMBER SEEING ROBERTA FLACK IN CONCERT WHEN I WAS LITTLE AT A CONCERT SHE DID FOR THE SOILDERS AND SHE VALLED ME UP ON STAGE, SHE WAS SO SWEET AND NICE………

*CRACKIN THE HELL UP*

BLACKS SUPPORTING BLACKS…JUST AS IT SHOULD BE!!!

Where was Oprah?

Phylicia Rashad is absolutely radiant! She’s just the epitome of elegance and class. Always has been, too.

LOL@ #37 - NO CHICAGO! YOUR DYCK’S THE MUTHAF^&**IN PROBLEM!

Yeah J. Lewis you gotta cut it out, got me chokin on my water. I was like, did he just crop Mr. Williams’ kneecaps and turn it into his avatar? Silly!

Look at Claire Huxtable!!! Main she doesn’t age. Everybody looks good even Al and Star!

everyone does look great! Aretha did lost some weight so it’s good she’s doing it the right way instead of trying to yank it out of her body with a vacuum. It’s hard to lose weight when you’re older, too, so I good luck to her. This is a great event to see!

^lose

AAAAHHHHW HELLL NAW, I JUST CAUGHT THAT NEW AVATAR ON # 35

*IN TEARS LITERALLY*

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO J. motherf%cking Lewis. CUT IT OUT

@17 that is too funny. Fish titties. I’ll be laughing at that the rest of the day and using it from here on. Mr. Williams need cocoa butter, baby oil, vaseline, bacon grease and vicks vapor rub on them ashy knees.

I’m telling ya, if you don’t come correct out the house…you going in my avatar.

But Richard Williams does deserve Fashion Icon of the Year!!

Star Jones looks betta n betta every time I see her ……………..

Congrats to the William’s sisters. Star has finally worked it out…I don’t know if her head needed to shrink or she started wearing her hair in more flattering way, but lately she has been looking very good. Good for her!

Gorgeous Black people. Gayle King’s daughter is a Q.T
Janet please come up with something new. The baggy pants look is tired, perhaps she wore them to smuggle JD into the ceremony.
Serena and Venus have stepped up their style. Good stuff ladies.
Star anything that covers up that dreadful cleavage is a great choice. No one wants to see those deflated water baloons.
Common…mmmmmhmmm good.
Roberta Flack needs some flack for that bad facelift.
Got to love Mr. Williams he is to tennis fashion as Bjork was to the Oscars.

Message to Aretha: G-A-S-T-R-I-C B-Y-P-A-S-S

A lot of vets in the house!

May I say that the Williams sisters look absolutely lovely, BUT

The wig-wearing divas- all of them with the poodles and skunk on their heads (Janet, you too) are embarrassing to see.

Damn brown put some lotion on them knees!
Aretha, sweetie please at dinner eat three plates instead of four,
take baby steps.

Venus and Serena look awfully skinny. Everyone else looks peachy except for Star’s husband. Boy, I didn’t notice how nerdy he looked.

You obviously are very young people who have no respect for those who have paved the way and worked hard in the industry in the midst of impossible odds.
Kudos go to you Ms. Franklin and you are looking good to me because you are still here and you deserve RESPECT!!!! Which these young folk seem not to have any awareness of what it is or what it means, I am glad they are not my children.
They probably talk a lot of trash to their parents if they are not orphans, I wonder what their Moms, Aunts look like ( I guess they all black women size 4 looking like Twiggy).

BLACK STAR POWER…..I LOVE IT

Janet please come up with something new. The baggy pants look is tired, perhaps she wore them to smuggle JD into the ceremony.

BWAHAHHAHHHAHHAHHAHHHAHHAHHHAHHHHHAHHHAHHHAA

We look great!!! Congrats to the WIlliams sisters. Everybody looks pretty decent. Ummmmm, has Aretha lost some weight?

I watched last night and Serena’s outfit was too cute!

Janet looked fab!

Felicia Rashad doesn’t age at all - she looks good!

Heck, errybody looked good!

Someone needs to help Aretha out , her hair is a mess. I love Roberta flack her and Donny made great hits together .

One more thing, the picture of Janet goes to show she hasn’t gained all the weight they claimed she had gained. My girl still looks good!

Okay, i know people are going to jump on me, but dammit, i have to ask this question. Why does Janet, at age what, 40, 41, body looks 200% better than beyonce’s body who’s said to be 25! They both claim to work out faithfully, people have accused them both of lipo, but i don’t care what you say, i believe Janet works for hers because while lipo can remove fat, you have to work to get definition like she has, that’s hard work and denying herself a bunch of fat and calories. But i just don’t get it. Beyonce claims to work out very hard, yet her stomach always seem just one step up beyond flab, her stomach be kind of sort of flat, but never really flat. Plus it looks jiggly looking, like’s she’s had a baby, and trying to bounce back, and i might add it appears she holds her stomach in when she’s in bathing suits, i could be wrong on this though, but it just looks like it. And i believe her, i believe she works out hard, so i really just dont it. Most women i know that work out religiously are very defined, not manly, but very feminine and just well toned.

But to Janet, get it ma. Bitch is always bangin.

Awww, look at the star power, i wonder how much money in that room if you added it all up.

Sidebar: I really don’t understand star jones school marm look.

Star Jones School Marm look is better than that look she had before, not the weight, no problem, but the whole Star Jones Wig thang you feel me. She has a more classy look to her, (Hubby look “How You Doin”) though.

ok guys , Aretha is our history!!! We all got some big folks at the house stop trippin…. Gladys Knight looks wonderful. As does the rest of our folks!!!!

#70- While Janet does look fabulous when she’s adhering to a strict diet and exercise program, her face always suffers the most.
She looks like Pennywise the clown in these pics. (Steven King’s “IT”)
Also, you CAN get that “ripped” definition in your stomach from the liposculpting procedure, though i think Janet just has a tendency to lose fat there the most.
Bey IMO, does have fabulous abs, and a TINY waist to hip ratio. I prefer her look over Janet’s.

No need to get heated. Let’s face the facts, obesity in the Black community is a problem. Ignoring that fact will not change it. It’s time we stop dancing around the issues and using the cop out of cultural differences as a way for us not to address the fact that too many of our people are gaining weight at an alarming rate. Having a great voice and being a legend does not change the fact that Ms. Franklin is slowly killing herself with the folk. No one is saying she isn’t the Queen of Soul and is not worthy of respect, but some of us are saying that she clearly is not attempting to get things under control. No one is asking her to be a size 4 but rather to get her weight into a healthy range so that she will still be here in the next 15 years. There are alot of Soul divas who are not as obese like Ms. Franklin (Glaydis Knight, Diana Ross, Patti Labelle who openly talks about her struggles to maintain good health). There is an elephant in the room and I’m sorry to say that it is Ms. Franklin.

Oh, and I think 32 (not 25) is more like it, lol!
