Dakota Fanning is growing up to be a very odd looking young lady. Maybe she is just going through an awkward phase.

Jada needs to take that weave out immediately. It is not for her. It almost looks like it is trying to swallow her head.

Everyone else looks good.

I love when my people come out to support one another. It is just beautiful.

Everyone looks great but I just prefer to see Jada with short hair. She looks so much better that way.

I love Queen Latifah’s hair cut, but not really feeling the color. She is still the bomb.

Everyone else looks great too!

Nia long is ageless…. She is beautiful. Sanaa is beautiful too, but I don’t always feel her attire. In Tyler Perry’s movie - she always looked stunning.

20.

WTH????

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

@16 THATS IT!!!!

i have been trying to figure out for the longest what it was about her cut that just wasnt working for me and thats it THE COLOR it just too much with her skin tone and the cut and the style all of it is just too much

other than that I agree dakota is looking funny but i think thats just that weird phase some teens go thru

oh yeah I LUV jhud shoes!! I just wanna see the back of them

21.

WTH????

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

No LESBO but i just have to say that Nia Long has the most beautiful creamy looking chocolate skin ever. It just dont even look real its soooooooooooooooooooo flawless. I need to know her secret

@15 I definately agree.

Jada is the reason I cut my hair. She made short hair FIERCE.

Queen Latifah make up is not right.

Sanna, Eva & Nia are timeless.

Jill Marie Jones look is … hmm well its not …

All the men are hot.

Dakota Fanning is going through and akward puberty but she will blossom.

J-HUD is just so Gansta. Luv her but why is she marrying Star Jones ex Husband. lol

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

Dakota…that dress is too mature for her…I usually don’t care for make-up,but in this case it is a MUST…

Jennifer Hudson looks nice, yes. But she has GOT to do something about that cottage cheese on her arms. If she is going to continue wearing sleeveless dresses, then the cottage cheese has got to go!!!!!

Everybody looks GREAT, WOW, this is one of the few times I have ever said that about a celeb event. The only thing I feel that Cover Girl is NOT quite working for the Queen, and that J-Hud needs to take posing classes. Everyting else - all good.

Tristan Wilds looks like he’s loving life right now! As he should be!

Alicia is in NY, promoting the film.

She appeared on “The Today Show” and “Regis and Kelly” yesterday.
Today, she’ll be on “106 & Park” and the “Conan O Brien” show.
Tomorrow, I think that she’ll be on “The Early Show”.

Then, starting this Friday, she’ll be starting the last leg of her tour—which will go on until this December.

So, the chick has been very busy, but I love her dedication and passion for this film.

I read in an interview that she basically begged the studio and the director for her part in the movie. She said that they didn’t think that she was right for the part, at first, but she stayed persistent and they ended up giving her the part without her even auditioning.

Even so, the critics have said that Alicia does a great job in the film; so it’s a good thing that the filmmakers took a chance on her.

I for one, cannot WAIT to see this movie! Its one of my favorite books, and I think the cast is incredible, and will bring this book to life, and do it some justice.

Everyone looks good! But I could do without the dark lipstick on Queen and Eva…but they’re still workin it. Tristan is tooo cute. Glad to see him working consistently in hollyweird. lol Oh and Will is super sexy as always!

Can’t wait to see it. Everyone is looking good. While she isn’t the main character I think this may be a break out role for Alicia, I have heard good reviews for her.

Where’s Sophie Okonedo? She’s the most beautiful and the most talented out of the women!!!!

Jada’s wig does not have that ‘natural’ looks. She needs to “try again.”
Everyone else looks great. I might HAVE to check the movie out.
J. Hud. is in it!!!

63.

BlackBeauty

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

Jada’s wig does not have that natural looks…She needs to come again. I still hope the movie is a successful.

64.

Let me just say this.... (I don't care if ya get mad)

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

Jada looks awesome as usual! Will well he’s Will he just always does the damn thing!

Saana is stunning as usual.. love that Marilyn Monroe thingy she has goin on classic beauty

JHud looks pretty, Queen looks good although I’m onmt he fence about her lip color.

Jill Marie looks her usual… always looks good

Eva is gorgeous but that dress in all it’s simplicity is boring and maybe it’s because there are no curves she is just str8…. and I don’t like the way that chocolate lip color photographed… I dunno I’m not feeling this look on Eva.. anywho

Tristan looks good ! Nate Parker looks good!

I can’t wait to see the movie just because of the cast…

erocka

Tuesday, October 7, 2008 /

for those wondering were Alicia is/was she is in NY promoting the movie. She did Regis and Kelly and TODAY SHOW yesterday, and she’ll be on 106 and park tonight. AS well as others show the rest of the week. Cause she goes back on tour in Europe for the rest of October.

anywho cant wait til OCTOBER 17th Secret Life Of Bees hits Theatre.
shouts out to Gina Prince-Bythewood, for finally bringing this story to the big screen. After so many others attempts failed. Nothing Happens before its time! CONGRATS TO THE EVERY WHO WAS APART OF THE FILM!!!!
