I’m so happy to see a majority of the people looking GREAT.

A few notes though:
Patti is the BUSINESS! That lady is so classy & fierce. I see her getting her Madonna & Britney on with J. Hud.

Mrs. Nona, should be renamed Mrs. NO-NO. That outfit is NOT HOT. Have some class for the event.

Letoya looks amazing! as does Lisa Raye.

Raven always looks great (400 mil aint nothing to bat an eye at) chick is RYCH

Fantasia looked great the hair colored was not trashy…. I like

J Hud looked like a black Marilyn Monroe I am feeling the outfit

Nona well lets just say Patti is probably glad she aint a labelle

Big Daddy Kane that cat has a huge face…. he is so corny, boy I could tell you guys stories.. like when he tried to talk to me at the club with his braids dusty or the small apartment he has in Durham NC that he invites the ladies to and how he answers the door in a bath robe…… or the time he offered to have someone pick me up from my college campus in Raleigh because he didn’t drive, or the time he was at the grocery store looking a hot mess oh man the stories I could tell tisk tisk tisk \…

Questioneverything

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Everyone looks absolutely FAB!!!!! Before anyone says anything about the diva Nona –She has ALWAYS dressed like that–she’s an individual and always will be//

As for Monique, she does NOT shave her legs.
Do any of ya”ll remember when she was hosting the View and she said the ignant statement of “Black Women don’t shave their legs” to Barbara Walters! yeash ignant!

Candace

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Everyone looks lovely for the most part. But um the damn SNATCH BACK Vivica is sporting is the BIZNESS WTH?????????

35.

Candace

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Oh yeah Raven do something with those horrendous eyebrows

36.

Sade

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Loooovee Patti. I was just listening to her last night. Living legend.

I agree with whom ever said Monique needs to shave her legs. Hairy legs are not attractive and I knooowwww her husband is begging to tell her something. He probably doesnt want to hurt her feeling but dammit he needs to tell the truth! However, Im glad she has been working out and getting healthy. That I will not complain about.

Raven, looks mannish. I hate to say that because I love her but she looks mannish. I think its her eyebrows. She also needs to lose weight. She’s getting way to big. Nobody said you need to be size zero to be healthy. Raven looked good during her first season of That’s So Raven. She can still be that size, the girl is 22. Gimme a break.

Everbody else looks great except for a few people ( Nona, Vivica and Big Daddy Kane).

37.

Candace

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

I meant the snatch back is not the bizness

Everyone looks great. Love Patti’s do’. Mario looks great, thats my boo,lol. Don’t know her name but 1/3 of Labelle needs to stop it with that outfit.

I remember lmaybe four months ago watching Access Hollywood and M’onique was talking about what made her marriage strong. She has said that she and her husband have an open relationship, meaning that they have sex with other people. I was hoping she was joking, but she was dead serious. Did anyone else see or hear this too?

43.

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Everyone looks nice…but why does Chrisette always look like she don’t know how to damn smile…the look on her face always looks dumb as heel…that annoys the hell outta me…obviously! lol

44.

Tabby

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

NONA!!!!!!! She looks great for her age, always has. That’s my girl.

Tisha looks great. I never thought she did, but this picture, she looks hot.

Sheila E looks great.

This is the best I’ve ever seen Fanny. Good look. There’s a first time for everything.

Mariooooo he is a cutie.

Shamar Moore, this is the first time his shirt is buttoned up and he doesn’t look like a himbo.

When your heavy, you can not wear too much or too little. That’s too much gown on Michelle it makes her look bigger.

I didn’t appreciate the sexy of Big Daddy Kane back in the day. That’s because I didn’t like dark men. But now that I’m older, I see he was and still sexy as hell. He looks like Clifton (Pinky) Powell.

45.

Real Talk

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

LeToya looks GREAT, so pretty and classy! I can’t wait until her Album comes out at the top of 2009, and the single before this year is out. I want to hear what she sang, she’s improved vocally (saw her in the play “Rumors”) so I want to see her do more live shows.

Why is Jennifer and Patti kissing? That is NOT how we do it in the black community, Jenn should have turned her head so Patti (whom I love) would have gotten her cheek!

46.

……………..?

Tabby

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

I was thinking the same thing Realtalk. I guess everyone wants to get press. I can’t no longer say what isn’t done in the black communities anymore. If Madonna and Britney can do it, Lil Wayne and Baby;why can’t Patti and Jennifer do it?? (shruggin) lol.

A lot of you are trippin…. Nona looks amazing… Many of you do not know Labelle as a group. Nona has always been out there She is a space child universal mother. I am very excited that Labelle is back together. The first single Roll Out Feat Wyclef is hot. Their album Back to Now will be another classic under their belts. These were three women as a group that has accomplished so much.

Fantasia looks nice. Duane is my baby! I think Monique’s husband is cute sans glasses. Mario’s sexy self! Don’t even front: ya’ll know Big Daddy Kane was sexy as hell back in ‘88, lol! Sheila E. looks good. I’ve always wondered why Tom Joyner’s wife won’t work him out??? Kym looks great! Love Flex, always been sexy. Y didn’t they keep him as Darnell on Girlfriends?? Nona is in great shape!

55.

Ladyssolady

Monday, September 15, 2008 /

Everyone going on Nona’s style, she been dressing like that since they were renamed LaBelle. Silver spacesuits and all, inspired by her. She just continued on with it. She does her.

Mario is so damn fly and FINE!! He can get it all day and night. But in other news, Letoya is fina as hell and fly. Fantasia looks really nice (minus the color thing), raven looks horrible (just cant quite put my finger on it tho), Duane martin is a fantasy of mines, Vanessa and Kobe are so hot together (I dont know which one I want…first lol), Vivica looks pretty, Holly is gorgeous (ageless), Sheila is pretty, and Shanice and Flex are a great couple (I want that suit Flex has on).

I have always loved Nona’s style!! And she has a voice just as powerful as Patti!

Her, Patti, and LaBelle’s were one of the first female groups 2 go out the box with their look! Can’t wait 2 hear new material from them.

The tribute to Ms, Labelle was an awesome show. Everyone carried her songs in a speical way, she couldn’t have had a better group of singers. My hats off to each of you for supporting education. UNCF keep up the good work. I’m also a graduated of a HBC.

I thought Fantasia was going to break out in one of the Labelle’s moves and Pattie would have just right in there for a real show stopper!!!!!!

Agape Love
