  1. I used to L-O-V-E me some D-Nice!!!

    I like Taraji, but she alway’s seem to look uncomfortable….

    Ke-Ke Shepard…a career waving her hand over heads…wow…must be nice! What was her job title?

    Overall, everyone looks nice.

  2. blackgyrl

    I love Kyla Pratt and Jennifer Freeman .
    Vanessa Williams is really sweet, I met her before in Times Sq. NYC randomly walking a friend….

    ***Why is KiKi shepard still invited places… she isn’t famous.. She’s the Appolo’s concierge …..

  5. Everybody looks great but Will. I.HAM!!

  6. HR DIVA

    That Hosea dude got a widow’s peak worse than Tito Jackson…what’s good???

    Lisa Raye is a natural beauty indeed…but i’m convinced she only shops at White Sales.

    Kiki?? Is that you?? Gentrification in Harlem put her out of work, but I’m glad she is looking and doing well.

    Love, love LOVE Melinda and D-Nice!!! Black love at it’s finest!

  7. ******* PrettyinPrada*******

    *my mistake #5 Apollo’s

  8. Harry James

    Damn, Vanessa! You can “Rocka Bye Me , Baby” lol

  9. I hope Miss Ruby Dee gets the Oscar.

  10. Everyone looks nice..and I’m shocked to say..including star jones!

  11. Miami Mami

    SHERYL LEE RALPH not a good look at all…
    uhmmmm and did everyone see her on the Flavor of Love 3 earlier this week, nothing she says will get through to those ghetto hood rats… Waste of a show appearence !!!

    SALLI RICHARDSON & DONDRE WHITFIELD ARE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BLACK COUPLE….

  12. GreatestLoveOfAll

    Everyone looks great.

    Hold up……is THAT REALLY Vanessa Williams??!! I swear she looks a lot different from that, unless there’s another Vanessa Williams I’ve never heard about, yet.

    Wow, I haven’t seen Sheryl Lee Ralph for a minute. Where’s she been? I think that she is a brilliant actress.

  13. Brothers45.com - Distinguished Black Men Pictures Gallery

    Black Hollywood at it’s best… Loving the pictures…

  14. Harry James

    I’m thinking that’s the Sexy Vanessa Williams from New Jack City who had fun “cappin” MFs

  15. asin-a-man

    i watched america gangster twice and the 2nd time i paided attn: to rubydee’s part AND I SEE why she is nonminated for the oscar she nailed that scene. if you had of been denzel,would you of gonna ahead to kill that police officer? but the way rubydee spoke and broke it down to him he ended up going to church. she is my inside fav for it. no one has of what i have seen, the passion in turning a killer 360 degrees cause dezel was on his way to kill. great job mrs ruby

  16. FLYGRYL

    Everybody looks good. HR DIVA im trying to get into the HR field any advice??

  17. politicallyincorrect

    With the exception of Ruby Dee, why is Black Enterprise throwing an Oscar party for a bunch of people that can’t get decent roles. Some folks will show up for any photo op

  18. Lisa

    What is little Ms. Pratt up to? She is a good little actress! What’s the deal with Dondre and Sallie, I think they are slept on as far as talent is concerned. Malinda and D Nice loves them!

    I’m also very excited for Ruby Dee, although I liked her in the movie, she should’ve gotten the honor of Oscar for other performances. She is a living legend, I know Ozzie is proud.

  19. bre

    aww kyla still look so young.Can’t wait to see her in a movie soon. She’s a good actress. And I love everybody else’s look too.

  20. Tam

    Isn’t Tia engaged, why is she NEVER with her fiance?

  21. Tam

    There are two Vanessa Williams’….Vanessa Williams (the singer) was in the Sould MOVIE and the other Vaness Williams was in the Soulfood SERIES!!!

  22. Tal

    Kyla and Jeniffer are looking sooooo shweet.

  23. The King of Meats

    24. Tam said: “…There are two Vanessa Williams’….Vanessa Williams (the singer) was in the Sould MOVIE and the other Vaness Williams was in the Soulfood SERIES!!!”

    ============================================================

    Actually, there are about 2500 Vanessa Williams’, if you count the ones in Harlem, Baton Rouge and South Central!

  24. Sharonda

    Damn Kiki!I haven’t seen her since.

    Jennifer and Kyla going to prom???

    Salli and Dondre are cute.

    Good look for everybody.

  25. Randomonium in Brooklyn

    SHERYL LEE RALPH!!!- No MA’AM!!!!

  26. Tam

    Well, duh, I’m talking about the Famous actresses. (it was a response to #13.

  27. bored_at_work

    I see you Taraj looking like Ruby Dee done spit you out! You can’t tell me she doesn’t resemble Mrs.Dee

  28. LaLaLaLa

    EVERYONE looks great! I love black beauty. We are phenomenal beings!
    I see that Tia Mowry (flawless as usual) never turns down an invitation. Good to see her though. I just wonder where her sister and her fiance’ are. I haven’t seen her fiance’ since they announced their engagement. Right??

  29. MAI03

    Is it just me or does Hosea Chancez looks like Micheal from Good Times in that pic?

    Thats a real nice pic of Malinda & D Nice. Awww.

    Everyone looks great..love Vanessa’s dress!

  30. Everyone looks nice, Im feelin Tia’s outfit, she’s been killin it lately!

  31. TALKIN SHIT

    I love Tia Mowry, that chick STAY fly.

    Why does Kyla Pratt still look like she’s 16 years old? I mean I know she’s only 21 but she doesn’t look it. I guess that will benefit her in the long run.

    D Nice and Malinda look so good together. Malinda, that’s my girl, people always say I look like her especially since I have short hair.

    LMAO @ 33 HE SHO DO LOOK LAK MICHAEL!!

  32. OMGGGG..LMAOOO @ there are 2500 Vanessa Williams in Harlem, Baton Rouge and South Central!!!!

    and LOL @ dude lookin like Micheal from Good Times!!! He kinda do and I didnt even click on the pic, lol

  33. Then when I clicked on his pic..he looks like Tito Jackson dressed for the ’87 Jacksons Victory Tour

  34. Quiche-A

    Why is Kyla and Jennifer posing like that? I wish these people would kill these goofy poses when at a supposed elegant event. And I ain’t bumpin bellies with no other chick at NO time!

    Star, Spanx is your friend. Check it out.

    Sheryl Lee Ralph, you are all kinds of wrong for that get up!

    Tia…love the look!

  37. GreatestLoveOfAll

    Is it just me or does Kiki Shepherd look ever-so slightly like Sheryl Underwood–I mean MINUS those big ass gums, the blue eye shadow and the weight? :lol: :lol:

  38. SUPERstarshine

    Kyla and Jennifer look like two high school girls posing like that.

    Vanessa and Malinda Williams are beautiful. Loved them on Soul Food!

    I like Taraji’s (aka Yvette) coat.

    Oh, can’t forget about Tia. Her style is simple yet elegant… I like that. Can’t wait for new episodes of The Game to come on!!!

    ____________

    Yes, and he looks like he has on Micheal’s clothes from the show too. Why is his outfit so tight? And why does he have on a belt with pants with no belt loops — esp. a belt that added a hole — look at that last hole sitting over there by itself. I recognize those “mama added a hole with a screwdriver and hammer” anywhere.

  46. hellarandom00

    star jones looks terrible (as always) other than that, EVERYONE LOOKS FABULOUS!!

  47. angelat704

    @ #38 i cant stop laughing at the bumping bellies comment, those were my exact thoughts, im in tears from laghing so hard

  48. lette

    Wow havent seen Jennifer and Kyla in a minute but cute pic

    Everybody looks relativley nice but I dont what Sheryl was thinking with that oufit

  49. UM...I GUESS

    kyla pratt still looks like a lil girl and her and jennifer freeman are EXTREMELY random.

  50. Everybody is looking nice………..But, that keisha from New Jack City is beautiful.
    rock-a-bye baby.

  51. savvy

    Sheryl… there simply aint no damn good reason for that outfit, notta one

    Starrah…even with SPANX boo, sometimes you just need a the next size up so erebody wont see all the shrinkwrappage going on underneath your garment boo

    Everyone else looks very nice. Go Black People!!!

  52. BiB

    Cheryl Lee Ralph???? Moma what is wrong? The beautiful Cheryl Lee Ralph…who did that to her. That ain’t right.

  53. Ms. AKA

    I am just wondering why is Lisa Raye still popular. She has only done one movie, The Players Club, -she was a stripper. Then, The Two Of Us-she played the ex wife. Then she married a Prime Minister in the Turks And Caicos. I have heard that their marriage is on the rocks because he cheats and she is always away in California…Still pretty though . I was wondering if anyone else have heard this too?

  54. J DILLA (REST IN BEATS)

    Tia Mowry looks really cute. She flies under the radar alot of times because she basic, chic, and still classy.

    I wonder why her sister won’t come out?

    Vanessa Williams also looks very nice

    Haha Kiki does look like Sister Patterson
