  1. Surprise

    Gabby and Tracy’s dress is a NO- LaLa looks very nice and classy- Mary Mary looks nice accept I’m not feeling the long hair on the side of the one in the red dress. Malinda cute- Estelle nice dress.

  2. 1*STEP*AHEAD

    ESTELLE ALWAYS LOOKS LIKE AN OLD LADY IN HER PICS.

    I don’t like Malinda’s dress. Looks ill fitting at the bust area and Gabby’s dress seems old, like a sophisticated mom, ugh. She shoulda shortened it a bit.

    I need Mikki Taylor to get a new hairdo. Her hairline is escaping like a runaway slave.

  5. ☆☆☆5STARCHICK☆☆

    Gabby’s skin is always flawless. I’m gonna have to get me some of those Neutrogena products she endorses.

    Gabby, your face sure is thick…… Hope DWade has just been feeding you well.

  7. GLORIA

    Is my eyes playing tricks on me or did Lynn Whitfield have work done?? I loved Melinda Williams in the Soul Food series. I have season one on DVD and I’m still upset about them not releasing the other seasons. I need to complete my collection!

  8. Candi_Renee

    Wow, Estelle looks pleasant! Pretty even, good for her. I love to see black women turn from copper to gold! Gabrielle’s face and skin is so radiant. She looks like a doll.

  12. touchofhoney

    Lyn, Lyn, Lyn… WHY????!!!!! she was such a beautiful black woman, now she is just ugh!!! her face looks like a jacked up porcelin doll!!

  13. LEO

    Lynn Whitfield was one of the most beautful black women to EVER grace the game.

    Now, she’s…

  14. MsNunyaBidnezz

    Boy these women (most of em) have the best shoes!!!

    Side Note: Is e/thing okay with Diane Carroll and Lynn Whitfield??? I hope that’s a case of too much make-up. If not, bummer.

  15. MsNunyaBidnezz

    Is Melinda Williams pregnant?

  16. MsNunyaBidnezz

    Okay… maybe Diane Carroll is aight, but Ms. Whitfield…..SMMFH@ her…. You would have aged beautifully naturally! Maybe even a LITTLE botox…. but that face lift… got her lookin like and old VivicaFoxBobCat. :( (This is really sad..smh irreversible phuck up.)

  17. Bloodclot Rhaaatttiidd

    Something about Gabrielle Union rubbs me the wrong way…Like she is too cocky or something…She needs to remember her ass is HATIAN…NUFF SAID..

  18. afrobella82(MJ stan 4 life)

    Everyone is gorgeous! As for Lynn, I think it’s just her makeup that’s making her look a little different.

  19. Honest Critic

    I love to see our black women come together and honor each other.

  20. Programs within Programs,Trying To Get Out Of The Twilight Zone.....Oh The Hypocrisy!!! Give This Earth A Break,Please Stop Polluting!!!

    I thought everyone dressed appropriate and looked classy. Gabby is beautiful and seems to be very down to earth. # 18 what are you talking about? I think you mean she’s haitian, and what is wrong with her being a haitian beauty?

    Correct me if I’m wrong, is Essence the same magazine that sold their company to a non black person and they just hired a caucasian editor? Which mag was that?

  21. gregory

    I think Gabrielle Union is preggers! NO DOUBT. exclusive… She is giving full preg face. Remember you heard it here first…

  22. Tnga

    Some look like shit, some look nice. I won’t say who, we all know lol.

  23. Denim

    Something about Gabrielle Union rubbs me the wrong way…Like she is too cocky or something…She needs to remember her ass is HATIAN…NUFF SAID..

    ………………………….
    Wow, is that a threat against cocky Hatians ? Don’t they have the right like everybody else?

    Wasn’t gonna comment but this ignunt stuff here just rubbed me the wrong way.

  24. Bloodclot Rhaaatttiiidddd
