  12. Me

    I’m always wondering what the hell is up with Derek Lukes hair!? It looks like it’s painted on.

  13. FallBackHaters

    Everyone else looks nice.

  14. missKJK_09

  15. Is the Korta, Ok I will be watching it. I agree that she should have won PR.

    Joy looks good, its about time…

    T. I is so sexy….

    Is Lorianne dating Michael Bivens? I know they both work for puffy…

  16. EnameL

    yo KERI is baDDDDD!!! Get em girL…

  17. Glam Examiner

    Ok Joy….can we please keep this look up…sigh!!!! You do know that you can enhance your beauty with makeup WITHOUT appearing to have any on…that my skin is dry, I dont care what you think and I’m anti-hollywood look is not a good look even on regular folk!

    PPL makeup brings your face and overall look alive and fabulous you just have to know what your doing or hire someone that does….it is as simple as that!

  18. syn'ceRe

    LOVE FABOLOUS!!!!!!

    KERI LOOKS FUNNY LOOKIN ON THAT PIC WITH HER RETRO FIT LOL

    DAWN DONT TAKE GOOD PICS @ ALL!!

  19. MJ

    See what just a little make up does for joy?!! get it girl!

  20. browneyz_philly

    Joy Yes! She does resemble Alicia Keys in these photos.
    The producers probably said oh hell naw Joy. No “natural today!” lol
    The little make-up she has on looks great and it really enhances her beauty. I mean wow. A little goes a long way child. Please keep the look. Still natural.
    And yes Derek Lucas’ hair does look painted on. Looks like a helmet.
    Madea goes to jail was all laugh but I had higher expectations, just like I seem to do for most of his films. Still support Tyler Perry and his work! Keep uplifting the black community.

  21. what i say goes

    Boo. This show is going to be wack. I mean just look at the host’s… Smh

  22. boombox

    lol i thought i was the only one who thought that about joy. she definitely looks a lot better here

  23. Nutybudy

    Keri Hilson is HOT !!
    Bobby V gotta cool SWAG!

  24. justtheway

    Lorianne’s legs look horrible for a dancer. I’m really disappointed in her. She need to go to a longer length on her dresses.
    Everyone else, well I have to see the show.

  25. Lamar James

    It was a great show. Make sure u check me out in the show rockin the Akoo clothing line. T.I. had the best performance to me.

  26. browneyz_philly

    *Derek Luke*

  27. Kiss Me Thru Phone, I'll See You Later On...

    I thought i was the only that thought that about Joy

    *She has natural beauty, but when she wears ”Make Up” it enhances her features.

    * Her skin is glowing,she looks nice, her style looks well put together aswell

    * ”Keep It Up Joy, It Suit You Very Well”

    Her and T.I look cute though. mmmmmmm T.I Baby!!!

    xo

  28. luvvieboo

  40. bill

  41. Jaesassy

    I cant wait to see the show.

  42. ZO

    Hey T.I!

    untwistedbeats.blogspot.com

  43. Don't Argue With Me It's Just An Opinion

    T.I. can do no wrong in my eyes… I just love that man.

    Keri Hilson is undeniably beautiful but I HATE her music and even more I HATE that fit she’s wearing.

    Joy and Derek seem like two good personalities to have hosting this event. Love both of them!

    Is it me or has Korto worn that orange getup before??

  44. Smokey

    Did Busta Perform?

    Who are the new hot designers?

  45. cali panamami (mas que nada)

    i was rooting for korto on project runway! good to see her do her thang!!!

    can’t wait to see it!

  46. @44 – Too bad you’re not a judge.

  47. OrangeStar616

    Keri’s outfit is ugly, I’m sorry too busy and just dizzy looking, hate it……
    and Joy looks pretty!

  48. I WAS THERE! The shoe was GREAT! T.I. KILLED IT!

  49. Addy Bardust

    why does Joy wear unflattering dresses……she does this soo often

  50. TTT

    Am sure it’s been said b4 but it bears repeating. Why does Joy always wear those big tent dresses?

  51. BAM BANG

    T.I. smilling in the pic with Joy. He look miserable when he take a pic wit Tiny.
    Say Im lying HAhAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAHAHHAHAHA

    Toccarra will get the business!!!!!

  52. SweetThang729

    I love me some Derek Luke and Tocarra

    Laurieann’s body is on point

    Keri needs some revamping

    nice to see Joy not looking like a modern bum

    And T.I. always brings the sexy.

  53. MAI03

  54. keshia

  55. COVERGIRL

    I AM SOOOOO GLAD JOY DECIDED TO PUT ON SOME MAKE-UP..SHR IS NOT A “NATURAL BEAUTY” AS SOME OF YOU GIVE HER CREDIT FOR BUT SHE DOSE MAKE UP BEAUTIFULLY.. ;)

  56. light skin cookie

    Joy Bryant looks amazing .

    Everyone else looks ghetto :/

  57. LEX 45

    Can someone please inform Bobby V that if it has to do with fashion he needs to leave it alone. I don’t know why any event coordinator would think that Bobby V has any business being near any event that deals with fashion. I mean just looking at that picture of this Napoleonic man and I can count over 7 major fashion violations that should get him 10 to 15 years alone. I mean he is more than fashion challenged. Joy does have great style and she went to Yale so she is also smart. Fabo is another person that tends to dress poorly often opting to wear too many poor fashion trends at once. LOL
