    I am so happy for the Apollo, but why isn’t it on tv anymore? And the Two Honorees, Ms. Patti and Mr. Quincy, y’all have blazed the trails for many stars of today

    I just have one bad comment: Fantasia, please stop buying these dresses from the Junior section of Sears and come with some better fashio! You let Devyn ass from the Real World Brooklyn show u up and her boobs are ten times bigger!
    ***** But on a side note, I know you tore that stage up for Ms. Pattie like you did at the BET Honors Patti Labelle**********

  27. Kill4KC

  28. Q.T. Pie

    #13 where do you see Eartha Kitt?

  29. Renae

    Fantasia baby, please don’t get any more tattoos. All that mess on your arm, ladies don’t roll like that.

    Can’t say anthing bad about anyone there, they paved the way for a lot of people.

  30. Q.T. Pie

    Fantasia starting to look like Lil Wayne with all them ugly ass tats. YUK!!!

  31. Deann

    Yea whats up with the cancellation of the Apollo??.. Ms. Ruby Dee still looks fantabulous to be so mature in age..she is aging so gracefully. Camille Cosby’s stance reminds me of Paul Bunion…lmao!! Phyllica still looks flawless. So does mama Patti and the ledgendary Quincy Jones. Someone please tell Fantasia to step up her fashion game and stop destroying her body with those God awful tattooes!..Ugh. Looks like something someone did in their kitchen..

    :) )

    JAMIE FOXX NEEDS 2 SIT DOWN. IM SO SICK OF SEEING HIM.

    WHY WAS MARIAH CAREY THERE? SHE KNO SHE CAN’T SANG NO MORE.

  39. Nothing But Love

    LMAO @ Prince that man is just too much for words..lol

    Mariah looks beautiful..

  40. Tiff.Will. [CL's "BeyStan"]

    I hope Mariah realizes that she can’t sing anymore. It is a shame because the girl was RECIDULOUSLY HOT back in the day. I used to adore the broad and now I can’t even listen to one of her recent songs from start to finish. I feel bad for her.

    UGH….Prince….UGH….I mean, GAG!

  41. Tiff.Will. [CL's "BeyStan"]

    *Rediculously

  42. sunshine

    with a crowd like that, all that was missing were the obamas!

    what happened to nick though? mariah made him stay home!?

  43. Jay

    I just saw Fantasia live and man her body is great she look so good, the camera do
    not do her justic. In person the tats don’t look bad. I don’t like tat myself to each his own Rhinna got on her hand and arm Mary J, Bey on her finger. but they are lighter than Fantasia. Fantasia is a beautiful young lady inside and out. And her dress do fit.
    I so sick of you people talking about Ghetto what is ghetto, if Fantasia was light skinned you would have nothing to say. She would be as big as some of these fake
    singer they have today have the look but not the voice. The girl is a real r&b singer the rest are pop singer and getting credit for r&b the one who is light shinned and shake their azz. But you know it was honor to have her there, that tell u the Apollo make legend.

  47. Pess

    @Tiff.Will. [CL's "BeyStan"]

    Mariah cannot sing??? Give me a break! Her vocals might not be as great as in the past, but this woman can still hit some notes! By the way, FOR SURE she writes her own music not like another singer you may know… SMH.

  48. Shanel

    Lol, when Prince was giving the award he said Patti is like a mother, a sister, his cook. And stylist. Thought it was funny. I wonder who is stylist is..?

  49. Shanel

    #19 Prince made 51 June 7

  50. Ara

    I was looking at the post and I had just said Patti should have been there and then I saw her picture, there’s my Patti, the one and only, just love , love , love me some Patti Labelle.

  51. Ara

    …… and Prince, hey what can I say, the name speaks for its self, he’s just as cool and cute as ever.

  52. FanOfMusic

    To those who say Mariah cant sing. U are IDIOTS!!!! Sure she may not sing the way she used to waaaaaay back in the early 90′s but Mariah will forever be one of the best that EVER did it and is still goin strong. Her new single drops next tuesday by the way “Obsessed”

    I love how people have hated on Mariah HEAVY since she 1st came out and 20years later mama is still givin it to yall. Keep hatin, her paper is so long and she keeps breakin music records. When yo faves gone do it?!?!

  53. Mellisa

    I love mariah carey

  54. Qtee64

    #54 – Thank you for having common sense. I can’t wait to hear Mariah’s new single “Obsessed” next Tuesday. I am a big fan of hers and I definitely love Patti. I hope this program will be shown on television.

  55. Ms. AKA

    Fantasia lives 3 minutes from my front door in Charlotte. I absolutely love me Tasia’s perfomances…

  56. Diamond

    I love Fantasia!!!!!!!!!!! Go mama do your thing!!! The game NEEDS you. real singing, raw talent! #1 Fan. kudos

  57. kcool

    PRINCE PRINCE PRINCE THE BIGGEST STAR THERE…………..http://www.myspace.com/emale_kv

  58. you and i

    @45 JAY

    I understand what you saying but its not because Fantasia is dark skinned. First of all I think Keyshia Cole’s tattoos are ghetto as well. Now Rihanna, her tats are subtle and they are small and usually hidden. The only ones you can plainly see is the one on her hand and sometimes the one on her shoulder. I never even seen Beyonce tattoo so idk what you talking about. 2nd of all its the way Fantasia carries herself. Sometimes she can look a little hoodratish but so can Keyshia Cole. It don’t matter if they light skinned. Keyshia however is starting to look a little classier. Fantasia still not there yet she was so classy on American Idol she was basically like a Cinderella story but she completely went left after the show.
