  1. Mrs.Mckinzie

    They look great.

  2. Mrs.Mckinzie

    Except New York.

  3. cutie

    Leona Lewis and New York both look like they are in full costume for the Lion King. They both look like lions.

    Ashanti still got the same funny walk.

    Mary’s body is the bomb man!

    Alicia is always so pretty.

    Jaslene is doing her thing!

    Toni has too much real talent to not here much from her. I think she fell off when she decided to let her very real talent of singing with such a beautiful voice that sold millions, be drowned out by her trying to be overly sexy as a sex symbol. Her music lost content and everything. I hope she makes a strong comeback. She better get some advice from Mariah Carey. Mayne even get Mariah or Neyo to write some songs for her.

    I used to wonder what all the hype is about, but after Training Day, I think Denzel is FINE!!!

  4. cutie

    That’s “maybe” let Mariah or Neyo write for Toni.

  5. nixtasy

    seeing ashanti alone lately….were’s nelly? what’s up woth that?

  6. Work it Ashanti………..”it’s murda !!!” :-)

    Alicia is looking low-keyed :-)

    Denzel, look like he’s in role mode :-)

    Leona Lewis, don’t know don’t care………..Next :-(

    Jaslene, look like she’s saying ” Yo tengo una hambre canina.” :-(

    Toni Braxton is m’ m’ good :-)

  7. pms

    Ashanti without Nelly means Ashanti’s got work to do. They are not glued to each other
    Shanti looks wonderful. She can pull off that Cher look naturally. Her new single is murda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. Tizzy-T Whistlequeen

    1. Whaaaat?!? Look at Mary straight killin’ ‘em in the 3rd pic! She needs a fire extinguisher because that wardrobe is smokinnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

    2. Love Adam!

  9. MS. Rochelle

    Somebody give Mary a Grammy, Oscar, Golden Globe and whatever other award there is b/c she is killing it!! The picture with the black leather catsuit–HOT like fire from a dragon’s mouth. I am loving Alicia’s shoes, go ‘head child.

    I love Denzel, but are those swish swish nylon jogging pants? When is this New York chick going to realize that her 5 minutes of fame are up? Someone please send her the memo that the “Muppets in New York” movie will not be made into a sequel so she doesn’t have to try to stay in the limelight so she can grab an audition.

    A can of Campbell’s soup… $1.49.
    A pair of Toni Braxton concert tickets…. $80.00
    A picture of Toni Braxton posing and wearing a Campbell’s soup label printed dress like it’s haute couture….priceless

  10. tiffanylove

  11. dj iamoso

    Ashanti looks happy, Alicia keys is still looks fly Denzel looks old, i like fab’s style, New york need to sit her ass down, Jazlene looks better but stiill need to eat, Toni and Mary need to start getting old !

  12. Tiger

  13. Look at my wife Toni, looking beautioful as always.

    Alicia looks smokin’ too.

  14. V-Licious

    Leona Lewis looks boring as HELL… Yawn

  15. MrGEORGE

    Did anyone else notice that Jaslene’s “friends” are Dionne and Whitney from the season of Top Model that Jaslene won?

    Top Model love! haha

  16. isn’t the girl on the end (in the pic with jaslene and friends) whitney from ANTM?

  17. merlin112

    can somebody please tell me why this chick new york is famous?

  18. Gem

    Angel, I can’t believe you missed that those other two are girls from her season… The one in the blue is the one who made it to the final 3 or 4…her mom was paralyzed by her boyfriend…
    The one in the tan blouse is the fuller figured one from that season who won the diamond bracelet posing in the lasers…

  19. Gem

    #16 lol you beat me to it!

  20. happyface

    the two gals from atm look like sisters-whitney and the other gal
    jaslene is realyy pretty but she should eat some damn food and shed look so much better

    lol @3 and the lion king
    toni braxton looks a damn mess

    did anyone see Mary J blige on the tyra show saying that she wished she had Indian hair? i was sooo disappointed after that! i thought she had learned to love herself but i guess not.

  21. WhatIThinkIs

    Ya’ll, I’m only 23, but I like them older. And Denzel is looking FINE to me. I don’t know. Maybe my computer is a little blurry. Those swish swish pants can go though.

    As for Toni and Mary, I know both of them are about to hit 40 soon and I pray that I lok half as good as they do when I get to that age. And with Toni having heart disease and a new baby to take care of, I can see why shes put her talent off for a while. But she still looks divine.

  22. WHATEVA

    mary is killin it..her body looks amazing !!!!!!!

  23. Greatestloveofall

    I see all the beautful ladies here. Well….except for New York.

    Denzel looks good.

    Fabolous…EEEEEEW am i the only 1 who finds this dude just NASTY as hell??!! Crispy lookin mofo wit his corroded ass lips.

  24. Ain't neva scared to say it

    Ashanti looks pretty.what i luv about Denzel is t hat just because he’s paid as hell he ain’t over exposed in the media like other people .He just chillin’.

  25. SoGood

    Alicia Keys and Ashanti looks nice. Ashanti always have a groofy look on her face. lol

  26. SoGood

    Alicia Keys and Ashanti looks good. Ashanti always have a groofy look on her face. lol

  27. PRINCE

    Everyone looks great…

  28. OG_Sweetz

    Ashanti looks cute

    Mary is STILL looking good.

    That Jaslene chick looks like an anorexic version of Kim K on that pic.

  29. Caramel1908

    Ashanti looks adorable.

    Mary is FABULOUS!!!!!! Now that is how you can still look sexy and classy in a catsuit! Work it girl!

    Denzel is the epitome of grown man sexy.

    Jaslene and Leona Lewis really just looks like drag-queens to me.

    Alicia Keys is talented as hell and pretty, but something about her always bores me.

    New York should feel out of place. Do you see any other celebs wearing all that heavy Fashion Fair-like makeup with their bra exposed? If you are going to expand your 15, then please step up your game.

    Toni Braxton is such a beautiful, talented lady. I pray she overcomes the heart disease and the Autism problem with her youngest son.

  30. monique r.

    I think Fabo has on Seinfeld’s jacket

  31. trigga

    ashanti iz havin da time of her life

    jheeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz

    http://www.myspace.com/sneakz28
    go on it

  32. Who got love for New York? Say it- I DONT. She’s done. All that slobbing on all them guys and attempting to act like a “diva” has worn out. It’s just like put a picture of me up there- an unknown. People would be like- who is she, and move on to someone known with a point- Like my girl Mary, Toni, Jaslene and Alicia. These girls are doing it. Oh, I cant leave out the ageless Denzel. That man is GORGEOUS.

  33. deedee

    why is new york hanging with the stars all the time she is not famous she’s a want to be and tailer made is a fool for being with that nut case.go sit down some were with your crazy ass.

  34. Ladyssolady

    Why is Ashanti’s mouth always open!?!? And why is she always doing that damn dance where she has her hands at her side and does that little run…looks like she just got done doing it in these pics. Alicia’s outfit is fab, esp. the jacket and the shoes. I’m sorry, but I’m just not impressed with that Leona chick, but the host beside her from TRL can dress her ass off. I always love her outfits. Love that yellow on Mary and Adam Levine from M5 is sooo fine. Aww, Fab’s sooo cute, looking like my ex, so let me get off of here, lol.

  35. reesseyy-babiie

    BRIAN I thought I told you to STOP posting ANYTHING leona lewis!!!! She CANNOT SING I love all your other music picks but you got it wrong this time brotha. FACE IT. And please SPARE the cL reader’s ear. PLEASE BROTHA

  48. a.k.a. new yorker

    @cutie i agree about toni. she was a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice but her overly sexy attitude was a turn off. she was trying way too hard. sexiness should be natural and artists like sade have that on lock. she should take lessons from sade

    ashanti- goofy
    alicia- pretty
    leona- manish
    mary- love her
    jaslene- cute, but too skinny

  49. Sharonda

    Ashanti, Alicia,Leona,Mary and Toni look nice.I agree, Toni had always been sexy when she first came out.She didn’t even have to try to be sexy, now she tries and it’s not very appealing.But I can’t wait til her album comes out.

    I’m just wondering who lets New York come out looking like a street hooker.Fishnets stockings?

  50. JAYMAN

    ashanti look good yall, let the girl smile alot. that shows her pesonality unline some of these other chicks….! look at the video and see her walk >>>>>

    alicia has really transformed..she looks beautiful

  57. Have Not Thought of a New User Name

    Ahanti and Mary look good.

    I want New York to go away, she really looks like a drag queen.

    If Toni takes her music back to what she did during the 90′s she will be back!
