Pauletta looks great. Denzel’s son is cute. Denzel is fine, as usual.
Henry looks good as usual. I remember when that DL rumor was going around when he & Eva were dating…but he’s still fine, tho.
Everyone looks great…idk though Tisha always had a weird shaped body to me. I see you Chris!
Hand clap! Everyone but red head is flawless.
The beautiful people, the beautiful people. Love Denzel and his family.
Wow, Nicole looks nice and healthy.
pauletta is a performer? I didn’t know that. Was she in the industry before?
Yeah, Denzel’s son is very handsome. Got those good genes! But I’m guessing he’s still a teenager??? (Lord, keep my mind from naughty thoughts)
Looking good ya’ll. Nothing better then seeing successful black folks! Pauletta really brings the saying “black don’t crack” to life. Absolutely lovely!!!

@ Lolita
Pauletta had a bigger career than Denzel when they first met. She was an accomplished actress and singer. But I guess she saw something in him that turned out to be true! Put her career on hold to build his and raise his family. I admire her so much for that, especially with all the rumors (some true that I myself have witnessed, sadly) about his extra-curricular activities. I know that she is a devout Christian and would never, ever divorce him so….
But yes, she actually has a gorgeous voice.
wow. can’t say nobody look bad. in fact everybody look good! and like the same designer made their gowns save for nicole richie who i LOVE seeing on black blogs-love her post Harlow
Pauletta is BEAUTYFUL. I remember a picture of hers on CL where Readers ripped her apart for Not being their idea of beautyful enough to date Denzel.I think she is fly.
Funny how Ben Vereen is Usher’s “God” daddy yet they look so much alike…
LOL @ #20 (NiceSomewhat) – I feel the same way about Taraji…something is always up with homegirls eyes. Love the dress though, usually her choices are boderline.
All of the ladies look fantastic; although Mel. B. should tone down the cleavage area -her waist too small for all that.
Black people lookin fab. i love it. i just love it.
Nicole Ritchie is Sexy!
beautiful people…and how old is denzel’s son cuz i need to know if my thoughts right now are legal
this is the best I have ever seen pauletta look! i would like to hear her performance looks like sista girl was really feeling it!
everyone else looked fab too!

SHM.
@32 Where did you get that info?
Paul and Denzel looks stunning!!!! I love her hair!
Taraji’s dress is fabolous! Glad she doesn’t look soo ghetto!
The Is one of the best dresses i’ve seen Pauletta in! She looks awesome in magenta!
Good job everyone, for the most part!
Outfits/ Looks that didn’t really flatter:
Tisha: good, but i’m VERY sure that another dress and do’ would have flattered her body type a lot more. she still shines though
Mel B: stunning dress, but the “girls” REALLY don’t have to always be in the spotlight. what about your face mel? Ur beautiful. Let THAT be your focal point, not your boobs. So, less boobage, more leaving up to the imagination please? We all know ur figure is great after having kids (and even b4 it looked good too) but u and Mariah need to understand that covering a little more could actually be sexier than showing more..
Best dress HANDS DOWN goes to:
Taraji! This is the best dress and look i’ve seen her in! AWESOME WOMAN! and Quite talented. Sweeet!
**i wonder what it’s like to date henry simmons.
The Washington’s are a good looking family! I see Pauletta has starting singing again every now and then…. good for her…The kids are grown now do you!
Taraji’s dress is beautiful… Nicole Ritchie looks good motherhood becomes her she’s come a long way…
Chris did you decide in the car to go to this event? lol..
Ben V looks good, nice to see him out and about!
All the ladies look lovely.
Kudos to the entire selection of pics! All the attendees are looking exceptionally nice!
I have to agree that Taraji’s dress is the BEST of the pics! Very timeless and classy gown. Pauletta is definitely looking classy with the up do! Yea, she was already doing her thing when she met Denzel. I believe the couple complete each other.
Nicole Ritchie is looking so well put together!
Tisha’s hairdo actually does take away from the roundness of her head. I really like this look!
Giselle looks good in colors that POP, but this ensemble is not as polished as I’ve seen her attening other swarrays!
Mel B definitely is about to POP, POP, POP out of this gown. Less is more BOO!
Denzel’s wife is regal.
Everybody looks great, Taraji looks especially great and I want Mel B’s body!
Nicole Ritchie looks like a normal person! Stick with this look! Although you don’t read our blogs…you loathe being black, of course…
denzel and paula both look great!
I must say that everyone at this events looks beautiful. I love Taraji. She is one of the most underrated actresses in Hollywood. I hope that she gets the right role that puts the world on notice.
I appreciate Denzel Washington and his family. I know that its hard to maintain a family in this day and age and it must be even harder being a celebrity. Much respect to them for hanging in there. I aspire to be on that level one day if not surpass it.
I LOVE DENZEL IN PAULETTA ALWAYS KEEPING BLACK LOVE REAL. THEY ARE RIGHT UP THERE WITH THE OBAMAS. YOU CAN’T HELP BUT LOVE BOTH FAMILIES. BLACK PEOPLE TAKE NOTES THEY ARE THE AMERICAN DREAM. FAMILY FIRST. TRUST COMMITMENT. LOVE THATS WHY GOD TRULY BLESSED THEM. THEY HAVE WORKED VERY HARD FOR THE FAMILY AND IT SHOWS. UNLIKE SOME OF THE OTHERS WHO HAVE RAN THE OTHER WAY THE FIRST CHANCE THEY GOT. PEOPLE PLEASE GET OUT IN REGISTER THEN VOTE. OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone’s comments are so positive….so I’ll save my comment on how Paulette looks like a ________________ and how mel B looks a damn _____________.
Anywho, love seeing BLACK ppl celebrating

Oh mi oh my, is that Nicole Ritchie looking all classy and womanlike??!!!!!
Pauletta better work! She looks fabulous!
Just a word of appreciation for all those who lent their celebrity to this event. Diabetes is epidemic, and though it’s a significant health challenge by itself, its complications are many and contribute to much higher health risks. For example, the sixth complication of diabetes is gum disease, which interacts with elevated blood sugar in ways that worsen both conditions. Fortunately, routine dental therapy can lower blood sugar and even reverse gum damage. We write about this extensively at http://dentistryfordiabetics.com/blog.
