*hijack*
Dang, me too. And I had a big gap, so that made it even worse.

The good news is that I only had to wear my braces for a little over the year (waited until I was an adult,) because it was the overbite that caused the gap and other spaces between my teeth. Once my teeth were pushed back the spaces all closed. But I do wear permanent retainers.

I love this dress

Is that Deborah Cox in the Gold dress below Hamma?

Eric Benet looks like he's on that STUFF. :rolleyes:

I don't recognize the chick in the green dress. :confused:

I think thats Ananda Lewis in the green dress.

Has she been altered? :confused:

It looks like that model. The one who was a former Ms. USA. Her name escapes me at the moment.

Kenya Moore. But that's Ananda. She does look like she has had a nose and boob job.

I need confirmation on the "Ananda-ness." No way! I'd hate to think that straightening your hair can make you look like a totally different person but in this case, I am hoping that's why she looks so different.

Benet knows he wrong for the Halle turmoil so he is prolly smoked out.

Hamma looks absolutely crazy.

Is that Tina MArie and her daughter.

Finally, the Darden guy looks hell agood. That looks like him and Ananda baby!

yes, that is Teena Marie and her daughter, Aaliyah.

I'm not feeling that dress. She has a Fantasia look going on. It makes me want to turn her around and pull that one strap tighter, tie it, pin it, or whatever...you have to be like...I don't know - 16 years old to wear a dress like that...gravity is no joke.

And I love Deborah Cox. Great voice...but that strap is too loose.

2006 Nominations Are In!
 

Van Hunt was nominated! :eek: :D

Common...yessssssss! :D


So many nods for Luther's Tribute CD. I'm not really feeling it. I only want to hear the Lu. :o

I LOOOOOOOVE Van Hunt!

But I'm torn because he's nominated in the same catagory as Floetry, and those are my girls!

I guess I'll be happy if either wins!

I also love Van Hunt, Jubilance. I cannot believe he is nominated!!! :D

ttt

who ???
 

I might be way out the loop, but whose Van Hunt ???

It is such a shame that his CD was slept on by the masses. Maybe with this nomination, more people will pick it up.

Just on the strength of the comments in this thread, I'm going to have to give his cd another chance. :) I wasn't really feeling it but "Down Here In Hell" was. my. song!

why does kanye west have his taco meat out???:rolleyes:

i cant stand him

sly stone has left the building...STONED! :o :eek:

He left his own tribute! :o

My baby daddy Kanye just RIPPED IT UP!!!

ETA: I am ready for this tribute to the Big Easy. Let's see what this is going to be all about....

Kanya's performance was great. I just love him to death:D

Kanye's performance was fantastic! The best of the night!!!

Christina-----Best Performance All Night

I wish Kanye would let go of his college thing. We know you dropped out, stop trying to relieve that college experience in your performances.

Christina sounded great, but Donny's version is always the standard for me.

John Legend
 

Is the lady in that awful red and black fur outfit with the Shug Avery hat, John Legend's mother?

thats mommy !!!
 

yup :D she and he were both on Oprah today . . .

Re: John Legend
 

Yes, she is. She was on Oprah with him today with the Smoking for Jesus Baptist Church first lady's hat on.

Your baby daddy? HE IS MY BABY DADDY!!!!:D ;) :p

Kanye and Jamie were off the chain!!:D I loved Christina too.

I missed the first hour because of class, but I taped it. I'll have to see Stevie/A. Keys and Mary/U2.

Which stylist let Terri Hatcher out of the house?:confused:

LOL @ John Legend's mama's hat!:p

I loved the Jay-Z/Linkin Park/Paul McCartney set...and for those of you that didn't pick up the Jay-Z/Linkin Park 'Collision Course' CD/DVD.....that was hot, I loved the album. Don't sleep on it.

My official wrap up-
Mariah- She sounded a little tired on We Belong Together(although still very good) but Fly Like a Bird was simply AMAZING. Her gestures were a bit manic but I love her so I could care less. Vocally she is still incredible. I agee MG her voice is much better when singing in her natural voice. She won 3 Grammys(though not televised ) and I'm pleased ..considering her 15 year drought since her debut(amidst a zillion nominations). This is the first time in her career since her debut that she has had commercial and critic success. Great night for Mariah

Kelly Clarkson- was great LIVE and I'm glad she chose Because of You. The lyrics are great. She won 2 and I ain't mad she had a good year

Christina Aguilera- Good. No one should ever sing A Song For You. I've only heard 2 versions that I love Donny(of course) and Whitney did it live in DC. Donny gave it the emotion it needed, Christina didn't.

U2- I don't get it....why they won and why MJB

John Legend- Good. He was muffling his voice a bit but he was good and the lyrics are really good on that song

Kanye- Will someone please make him an honorary member of a Greek Org He's crying out for attention. His performance was good though I need Jaime to really release his inner Ray Charles it's getting annoying.

Sly Stone- THERE ARE NO WORDS.. but glad that you are alive

Madonna- looked really good and I love to see her perform

All in all a decent show.

Yes, Jubilance, Donny IS the standard. Christina did well, IMO.

The Tribute to NO was POO! :o I was thinking folks would have been second lining, etc. I guess my expectations are too high. :confused:


Fly Like A Bird was terrific. I LOVE that song!

Ciara... why? :confused:
Terri Hatcher...lawd!

Kanye and Jamie were good.

I agree with everything except for U2. I'm a HUGE U2 fan (since I was 6) and everything they come out with is GOLDEN!!!

LMBO on everything that you posted!

Sly Stone...
 

Boomshakalaka boomshakalaka.

See, that took me back. My sister had a bunch of Sly and the Family Stone albums in the late 1960s, so I sort of grew up on him, Jimi Hendrix, et al. I enjoyed that.

And I was dying at Kanye and Jamie Foxx in the marching band gear.

I fell asleep really early and didn't see much. I did, however, hear Mariah Carey's horrible performance.

Looks like Soror Alicia Keys has dropped about 20lbs. I was wondering when someone was going to put her on a diet. In the current BET commercial she looked a bit chunky.

Yup. Alicia did lose some weight. She looks beautiful.
I loved the Jamie and Kanye performance. The best I think! It was hilarious!
Mariah was having some kind of attack. Her performances suck but, "Fly like a bird" is a great song and that was good (choir and background vocals helped alot).
Kelly Clarkson put on a good show. Her voice was great! Love the CD!
But can someone tell me what Gwen Stefani was wearing? I know she is pregnant but man, that was UGLY! Especially for her to be voted best dressed for 2005!

I think they were, 2D.

Although I hate to admit that I was waiting for Rebirth to close out the show....:o

Y'all can have Kanye, gimme Common!!!!!!!!!!!

The same nucca that left the gate open and let the dogs out!!! :p :D :p :D :p

AND CAN SOMEONE TELL ME W.I.T.H. HAPPENED TO SLY STONE'S NECK?!?!?!?!

I thought your baby daddy was Luda! You're going to drop him for Common?;) :p

And why I was thinking the same thing about Sly! Hey, at least he showed up!

With Ciara's outfit, I thought I was back in the 80s with the short, tight dress and the big hair. She needed to give the horse its tail back.:p

Did anyone besides me noticed that Mariah's hair color didn't totally match? I could tell where her actual hair stopped.:o

I wonder if Randy Jackson confronted Kelly Clarkson after she didn't mention AI when she won.
