Gayle Gayle Gayle my dear child…Somethan looks off about her…I can’t put my finger on it yet…I’ll think on it then get back to yall n tell you what I think…
Other than that everyone looks good….
Congrats Denzel
He looks so handsome .He is my favor ♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥. Yes, he is single now. I saw his profile on dating site —”W e a l t h y l o v I n g . c o m —-” last week. It is said he is in relationship with a young beautiful woman on that site now.
janet looks nice. Congrats black folks… Y the spam dating sites.
Janet looks great
NICE PHOTOS.
JANET NEED 2 APOLOGIZE 2 MY GURL KHIA THO. DATS AN APOLOGY DUE 2 YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow… I should’ve been there too. All those Legends under one roof would have been mind blowing.
#13 I doubt Janet is even giving your girl Khia one thought. Khia should be happy that she even was on a Janet Jackson single. Its been two years and Khia still on that?? She should focus on making a name for her self, and not depend on legends like Janet to boost her career. Im just saying….
Janet looks cute. Denzel is such an icon, if not for that man, who knows where black hollywood would be?
AWWWW….CONGRATS!!
he is trulyy deserving.
is it me…or did Janet wear that outfit at 106 and park?
J.J. ain’t pregant yet.
lol
j.j. ain’t pregant yet.
is gayle king a lesbien.
I hard her and oprah are messing around.l
loL.
I AM SO IN LOVE WITH BLACK PEOPLE, I LOVE TO SEE THE US AT OUR BEST, CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT OBAMA DOES FOR THE COUNTRY. PEACE OUT BLACK PEOPLE
JANET ALWAYS LOOKS AMAZING…DENZEL = BEST ACTOR!!!
He is a great actor. Love him very much. Lots of my online friends on blackcentury.com love him too. You can share your ideas with them if you want. It is a servious interracial dating service.
For peets sake will someone please get Valerie a weave or a wig. Sister Patterson….Hottie from Flavor Of Love…Beyonce…Brandy…ANYBODY! And bring Nick along so he can get that tired ass S-curl wacked off. I swear everytime I see one of those I wanna plant bombs and set up snipers at every Asian hair shop and Walgreens for STILL carrying that radioactive goop. THERE IS NO EXCUSE!!!!
Wanda…try a dress for once. It’ll soften up your concrete exterior.
India….Looks very nice. A lil greasy, but nice.
Even though I’m grown, that belt Smokey’s wife has on gave me the chills. If I got spanked with that I’d be walking lopsided and sitting down sideways, lol.
Gayle, to have one of the richest BFF’s in the universe you sure as hell look frumpy all day everyday. I mean damn, she could buy you a stylist for Christmas but you still insist on dressing yourself. Why? Ditch the Velma hair and hide those drumsticks on your shoulders and you just might catch a man to keep you preoccupied AND keep you out of Oprah’s pockets
Oh Ms Merkerson….SMDH…I won’t be harsh but Ruby Dee just steamrolled all over your Kohl’s Department Store look and she’s probably 20+ years older than you. I know it was the red carpet at the Apollo and not the Oscars but geesh, you’d think you’d take it up a notch to mingle with some of black hollywood’s elite and have your picture taken.
Congrats to Denzel. I still find it odd that his wife looks like she could be his sister, but oh well….
Congrats, they deserve it!

Janet looks a little bit hefty but its probably the outfit. Denzel is so beautiful…LOL. I had a dream about him once. My sister met him and got to shake his hand (!!!) his wife is so lucky.
Denzel is one of the greatest African American actors of this time. However, I don’t feel compelled to see every single movie he’s in. Guess that’s just me. BTW, I thought there were rumors he and Pauletta were getting a divorce. Oh well! Glad they are still togetha! Black Love!
Ashford and Simpson – As a kid, I always though Ashford was GAY! LOL!
Ruby Dee – She’s timeless!
India – She looks nice here! Go on girl!
Wanda, Wanda, Wanda – We all know you’re lesbian, you used to be subtle with it and now you are ALL UP OUT of the closet in this pic!
S. Epatha – Um, honey, where exactly did your driver tell you yall were going? Underdressed for the occasion honey! Need a DO OVA! Love ya work tho!
Janet – CONTROL! Lookin good!
Ok Denzel is cute.
But I envy Pauletta Washingtons TEETH.
That lady got some white azz teeth and a beautiful smile….WOW!
I need her dentist number on speed dial ASAP!!
Denzel is a phenomonal actor. he def deserves recognition. Many more awards shud be in store for him. & him and his wife look good together. She makes him look even better.
& #26…ms. Merkerson does look lyk she got her outfit from Kohl’s…JCPenny…Sears…..one of them stores.
-but she is a good actress. i gotta give her that.
and i think Wanda Sykes looks nice. shes not that ‘girly glam’ type of person. and i lyk how she sticks with her own style. every1 has different tastes in style and this is hers. she made is a little feminine with the leopard corset. i think that was a nice compliment to her pant suit. shes smiling in the pic 2…i dont think that looks “concrete.”
…o & sum of the other stuff u said was funny.
I’m his fan. I heard that he is dating a white woman on interracial loves . c o m Many black and white singles who are seeking for ideal match seriously there..
Denzel is a masterpiece created by god. Baby that man is FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear the older he gets the better he looks.
God has truly blessed him. Denzel’s talent is effortless. He has to be one of the greatest actors of all time!
I have the utmost respect and admiration for him. I love Denzel !!!!!!
Ashford has gotten too many face lifts . He looks like the Jackson’s .
Denzel is my man. Good to see all these people get recognition for their contributions to us.
Janet is gorgeous as usual.
S. Epatha Merkerson is my girl. I love everything she plays in.
I love that Ashford and Simpson have been together so long. My mother loves them. I guess they still SOLID, SOLID AS A ROCK. lol…they are too cute.
Thank you Denzel for dressing up this time; for a second there you had me worried.
Somebody tell Janet’s watermellon ass that she can’t snap into ‘little penny’ mode when shit aint going her way. I hate her serious ‘i’m a grown woman with real issues’
face. Bitch ain’t had no worries since she gave thay baby away 22 years ago.
*does not feel like sugar-coating a hot-damn thang today*
hmmm.
DENZEL IS SEXY AS HELL..GOOD LAWD THAT MAN IS FINE…MISSISSIPPI MASALA (1991)….REMEMBER HIM IN THAT FLICK..TOO HOT…

LOVE ,PAULETTE AND DENZEL-they are just beautiful!
RUDY DEE,love her. She are *Lena Horne are the the epitome or class and grace and talent. We NEED to celebrate them. Like the Marylin Monroe(s) and Audrey Hepburn(s).No disrespect to them,but I would love to go to a store and be able to purchase a T-shirt with the image on it! I see Marylin and Audrey images ALL THE TIME. *Other than the T-shirt I had made,I have NOT been able to have a T-shirt or any other item with their image on it! {DON’T FORGET (ICONS) COME IN ALL RACES}.
Look at that smile on Janet, the most beautiful smile I swear!
Denzel is deserving of this award. I can’t wait to watch the telecast of the show.
