Sanaa and Nia are so gorgeous! It’s ridiculous! Gabrielle, Kerry, & Laila look so pretty! Where is Paula Patton’s baby bump? Oh yea, guys, Paula was in Hitch by the way…she was in it at the very beginning in the club scene, I think. But that was only like for 5 minutes of the movie, if that…

I hope tom cruise dont try and disturb anyone wit that scientologist mess.

I think this is a beautiful thing! I love when great people are recognized. In the up coming years Essence should have a black women in the regular world luncheon. No sarcasm I’m dead serious.

I saw this on globalgrind.com. I think it is great that Essence is honoring women in Hollywood. It is very difficult for women in Hollywood especially if you’re Black.

@mocha honey that’s jada’s hair. i don’t know about you but my hair looks shiny when it’s healthy or when i put a product in it.

Thank you # 48! Tom & Katie are obviously close to Will and Jada and just b/c they are not black does not mean they don’t have the right to be at a black event. It would be nice to see a lot more of this in Hollywood. Obviously they are supporting their friends and supporting blacks and what we do. I like Tom and Katie, people always speculate but we don’t know what’s really going on w/ them. They seem happy and in love. Good for them, they look cute, and her shoes compliment his shirt and tie.

Paula Patton was also in Hitch. The movie starred Will and Eva duh, but Paula made an appearance.

Him and Jada have known the actress before the film. Don’t read too much into things.

Everyone lookd good especially Mr. and Mrs.Smith.
agree with #3 The guy w/ Ruby Dee is looking good as I don’t know what

Oh Gosh, I LOVE the star power going on here. And I Absolutely LOOOVE Will and Jada!!

Gabrielle union looks beautiful

Eceryone is saying why is hse posing like that, she posed to show the back of her dress, and there are other pics of her showing the front, but nobody posted them

WOW this looks so beautiful everyone came out and looked great…i luv will and jada thats the ultimate couple ppl in hollywood should take notes

How do u guys know JADA aint wearing a weave??? LOL
She probably got on a good Weave

And its nothing wrong with these Black women wearing weaves, hell as much shit they do to their hair, all these women would be BALD lol

VISIT “LETTERS OF SEDUCTION” NOW, AND SUPPORT BLACK OWNED BLOGS

Now this is my type of party!

Everyone looks maaaah-va lous!

Love Will & Jada..although I’m not feelin Jada’s dress..polka dots yuck!!

Love love love Nia! Sanaa looks gorgeous!

Tracey Edmonds looks lovely!! Lovin her shoes!

Love Raquel’s tude! She always rocks just cuz of her ‘tude!

Kerri Washington love the outfit don’t like the new face…. something went wrong in the cheek and nose area!! Still love her though!

90% women of Hollywood wear weaves. Its convenient. Versatile and an improvement… And there is nothing wrong with being improved… Some of these chicks have broken edges and damaged hair. So, If they were really on camera you all would be dogging them out of how bad and unhealthy their hair may be…

And Yes Jada has a weave in her hair now. Its Yaki Human Hair, # 1 by Zuri…LOL … I really don’t know the maker of her weave….

i guess the only qualification to be invited was if you were a black female who has been in a movie. every black actress was there

Gorgeous Women! I likes a lot.

Oh yeah, gimme Tia, Sanaa, and Nia. Too hot!!

I can’t stop smiling. Everyone looks so good!

Sanaa is a perfect, just so pretty.

Jurnee, love her, i see her man questlove wasn’t there.

Nia , Tracee, Tracey Edmonds, Even Star and Vivica look so great!

And Will and Jada are royalty!

I’m not a big TomKat fan. But I have to give it to them they put their outfit together well.

Now “that’s hot”

Jada is gorgeous!!

everyone looks nice (even Tom n Kate…????)

Katie, Tatiana, and Sanaa are workin’ it!!!

Jada’s dress is the BUSINESS!!! WOW… very very very beautiful. Good pick girl! good pick!

Jurnee Smollett and Lynn Whitfield should have switch dresses. Lia Raye is cute, although she should have worn Louboutin pumps in pink or light gold satin, instead of those sandals. Jada was on point, even with the funny brown belt.

Will and Jada looks good it needs to have more couples like that.

OMG all of them look stunning!!!!!!!

Wow, not a single ounce of hate on this. Everybody’s looking damn good!

Something about Sanaa Lathan seems so forced, fake, phony

Nia Long is flawless, always… love her!

Please tell Gabby that over the back/ shoulder pose only works for Paris Hilton

Wendy Raquel Robinson is my bitch! LOVE HER! Tasha Mack bitches!

Jurnee Smollett, usually stunning, failed me this time

What damn prom is Lynn Whitfield going to?

I guess Tom, Katie, Will, and Jada really are BFF’s?

Tracey Edmonds aka THE ULTIMATE GOLDIGGER!

Tracee Ellis Ross looks like a clown in everyway!

Kerry Washington is so stunning, so chic

what role did Paula Patton play in HITCH

what role did Paula Patton Played in HITCH ? bc i don’t remenber her in that movie

Everyone’s outfit was nice but the shoes were the UGLIEST thing in this post! Loved Gabrielle’s makeup (even though we only got a side view).

Sanaa has just been having that glow lately!! every event she looks hot…she must be in love

everybody looking fab!! sistas are representing!!! except for Traci Ellis Ross

Why are black people so critical? We’re too hard on each other and it’s so wrong. If ever there was a time to lift and encourage one another…..it is now. All of us have different tastes in style and fashion, so let’s not be so harsh with our words. This was a lovely affair for black women in Hollywood. Let’s leave it at that and remember no one gets it right all the time. I love black people and how we do what we do. Let’s just stop hating!!!

Kerry Washington will never be cute to me. She has those fish lips or trout pout.

Jurnee isn’t cute to me either. Her jaw is extremely wide. She always looks like she has rocks in her mouth.

I love that Tom and Katie came out to support their friends.

T@380 AKAK New yorker: hat isnt Jada’s hair. She has weave or hair pieces in.

What has Salli Richardson been doing? I see her hawking RB cds for with her hsub Dondre Whitfield. IS she doing local theatre in Cali ?

I think this is a fantasic platform for women of color.
WILL & JADA GREAT JOB, keep up the good works……………

ps. have a blockbuster animation feature piece Holla…………
