All the glitz and glamour of the red carpet, parties, and concerts was on and poppin this week.
The 2005 Black Movie Awards were taped last Sunday at the Wilter Theater in LA.:
Zoe Saldana looked uberly fabulous.
Her bare makeup look, dress, shoes, hair...all fab.
My favorite actress from Young and the Restless was there looking gorgeous.
Victoria Rowell
She's been in this biz a long time and still looks fabulous.
Vivica sashayed her lil azz in there looking more plastic than ever.
Vivica Fox and Bobby Brown
Sigh. Now she doesn't look ugly, but all this tightness and plastic is just gettin ridiculous. "Remember when I used to love her....." I want the old V back.
Tracee Ellis Ross
I'm not feelin this dress or them shoes with the big ol country red bows.
Tangi Miller's been fab ever since Felicity.
Apparently the less is more makeup look is making a comeback. I'm a fan.
Actress Taraji P. Henson
For those of you who don't know her...she was in Baby Boy, Four Brothers, Hairshow, and Hustle and Flow and some tv shows. She also just completed a new movie called Something New that's out next year. She's definitely doing her own YBF thang.
Terrance Howard
Someone's lookin real GQ. I'm tryin not to stay mad at him for his ignorant comment on national tv about Katrina victims.
Awww...Robert Townsend and his daughter Skylar look like the ultimate Daddy/Daughter couple. Rob is lookin older...but still a fab actor/producer.
Regina King lookin slim and trim.
Nia Long is another one of my favorite actresses:
She is KILLIN em in this dress with her fab look. She has perfected the short hair coif to a damn science. I miss her. I need Ms. Nia to be in another movie soon.
Meagan Good is HOT!
Ms. Good can do no bad...wrong...whatever! The girl is fabulous! Check out those shoes.
Loretta Divine was looking...well...like Loretta.
Cutie pie Hill Harper made an appearance.
We are so not worthy. My girl Elise Neal looks hella hot at this awards show. Keep doin ya thang ma.
Don Cheadle
Loving the black suit and the tie. I love men that know how to dress.
Debbie Allen made an appearance. That's her husband Norman Nixon in the first pic.
Note to Debbie: You are not Indian nor do have an ounce of Indian or Bangladeshi in you...I'm sure. Therefore this sari outfit plus the traditional stone on the forehead is way overboard. I'm not feelin it.
Cicily Tyson
Bobby was lookin a mess as usual:
I just have a few quick questions. 1) What physical harm happened to his body/brain to deform his mouth like that? That question's been haunting me ever since I saw the VH-1 special on New Edition. 2) Did he have to say "I'm Whitney Houston's husband" in order to make that child ask for an autograph?
On the gossip tip: Bobby is saying that he doesn't think the Being Bobby Brown show will be renewed. He says they will have to offer him a tight amount of change in order ot do the show again. Whatever. He know he blew all that money on that s*it. Go head and do that show and get yo money B. Story
Blair Underwood
Good God that man is gorgeous. Him and LL must have a secret cuz they just get better and better every year. *Sigh*
I really need Neicy Nash to stop putting ridiculously sized bows/flowers in her hair. It's not cute.
Now usually Kimerly Elise looks great, but there's just something about this look that borderlines unfab.
Quite possibly it's that "white itchy bumbs will pop up soon" tight updo she has. Maybe not. Who knows.
Eriq LaSalle and his date
The 14th annual Ella Awards were on Tuesday night at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. They honored Elton John.
Natalie Cole looks...interesting.
Enough of all that.... Usher's Restart Benefit Concert for Hurricanes Katrina and Rita victims went down this past Sunday at Atlanta's Phillip's Arena:
AJ Calloway
Yes..that's AJ formerly of 106 and Park...with all them damn braids cut off...finally! I think he was playing MC.
Usher and Alicia performed their duet.
Chris Brown
I really hope he's not another one-hit wonder. Lord knows it's way too many of those.
Now what Emmanuel Lewis was doing there...I have no clue. But everytime I see him I just have to smirk to myself. I know...it's wrong. Sue me.
Juelz Santana performed.
The Queen-in-Training of Soul and the Godfather of Soul kicked it for a while at the Benefit. Ms. Keys looks fab by the way.
JD and Dem Franchise Boys wrecked shop on stage. And yeah...I do like em.
The Soul Survivor himself (Young Jeezy) performed.
And moving on to the party scene:
What in the fresh hell is Diddy doin? He is preserving his "sexy" a lil too much.
That's him and designer Zac Posen gettin too close for comfort. Damn...I mean I know Kimberly Porter ain't the cutest thing...but must this be necessary.
Michael P. Jordan of All My Children attended the New Big TV Guide Magazine Launch party at Home and Guest House in NY Tuesday.
Joy Bryant...who's in need of a perm since the end of her hair doesn't match the top...attended the Oxfa America Charity event last week.
And now for a new reason to love the Magic Johnson empire:
Magic Johnson has recently announced he will be handing the entire empire (franchises, movie theaters, businesses, all that) down to his son Andre Johnson (in the pics above) who just happens to be ultra-sexy. The takeover will happen in 5 years. Story
Bigga concluded their London trip a few days ago. Here they are checking out of their hotel and going on a last minute Louis Vuitton shopping spree. They reportedly spent 2000 pounds in just 5 minutes.
Their luggage
I'm glad to see B is looking more like her fabulous self.
AK went on TRL this week.
Yes...those jeans are a bit snug...but she can pull it off.
For all you Sean Paul lovers....here he is at a photoshoot:
The 2nd Annual Little Legs with a Big Heart Fun Run was last Sunday in LA:
Orlando Jones, Tyler Williams (of Everybody Hates Chris), Tracee Ellis Ross, and Debbie Allen
Tracee and the B-Dads
So as I watched Desperate Housewives these past few weeks...my new fave character has become Mechad Brooks.
He plays Alfre Woodard's son Matthew Applewhite and he is most definitely the sexiext thing on that show. By the way...does anyone else think Robin Givens would be perfect for Alfre Woodard's part and fit in with the DH cast?? Anywho...Mechad's from Austin, TX so me and my girls may have to make a road trip real soon. {Thanks Cortney} Story Reg. Req'd
Macy Gray, Keira Knightley, and Shondrella Avery at the Domino premiere afterparty
Macy Gray looked like she just finished smoking and this Shondrella chick looks a firey mess.
Eva and Tony went on a little snorkeling expedition this week:
Check out his head under her but cheek in that last pic on the right. Funny. They're super cute.
That's Jada on the set of her new movie. Can't wait to hear more about it. {From Pink is the New Blog}
The Randomness:

Ya'll stay fabulous!
