Sister Corette Scott King
 

Did anyone hear that she is having a make-over on Oprah today - - - don't ask me how this came up during the NAACP banquet this past weekend but it was the talk.

Yeah...I am not going to miss that one!

whoa....i've got to see this.

I saw the commercial for the show this morning. What could they possibly do to her? She's beautiful ;)

Coretta looks good to me but she could update her look. After all, she has had the same look since Bro. King's funeral. I think she should put on a short skirt and let me help her spend some of that money - lol:D

LOL @ Look Quote. She is a beautiful woman so we shall see what Oprah can do!

I got the chance to meet her when she came to BC for our lecture series.....but I just heard about this at lunch. I won't miss this!:)

I'm taping the show
 

I agree she is a beautiful woman but she does need to update her look.

I saw it this morning ( I was late for work because of it) and although I was skeptical because could she get any prettier, they did it! Her hair was trimmed so she could shake it and it would still fall back into place. She did not look anywhere near her seventy six years. And the tuxedo pants suit was very nice also.

Do you think she will go out with a brother? I have no problem dating older women.

I'm sorry...not moms, but
 

What about Dexter? I hope he is going to be on there. :D

Re: I'm sorry...not moms, but
 

Now that would be REAL nice to see :D :D

That MAAAAAAAN is FIONE!! He took the best of his mother and father.


He is such distinguished eYE CANDY!!:cool:

OKAY...I am sitting here watching the show. This has GOT to be the best makeover show I have ever seen!!

Everyone looks 150% better! Mrs. King looks absolutely beautiful, I love her hair, like Oprah said, "I didn't know it could move!" :p

I want to CRY!!!! This show was so touching and encouraging!! Can I be only HALF as gorgeous as IMAN and Mrs. King when I am their age?

Mrs. King, before and after:
 

wow! I think the lighting on the second picture could be better, but she looks great! Her face even looks thinner. Did they say anything about her losing weight? I'm just glad they gave her some new foundation. I love Miss Co'retta to death, but her foundation had these awful red undertones that did not complement her complexion.

Thank you for posting the pictures Steetrap!

She looks like Marilyn McKoo(?) - - - Am I the only one old enough to know Marilyn McKoo.

Can anyone get me an autographed picture of her that says to my baby - the professor.

I hope to see her at nationals - lol

I remember Marilyn McCoo Davis back in the days, with the Fifth Dimension. That was the kind of pop music my parents listened to.
:)

what are you trying to say:p

I'm 38. My gauzy memories of growing up as a middle-class kid in the late '60s include the Fifth Dimension, LOL.
:p

Re: Mrs. King, before and after:
 

Coretta looks fabulous!!! I have to agree with Professor, she does kinda look like Marilyn McCoo!;) Just beautiful!

Marilyn does favor her. Coretta looked great!

Oprah needs to get a hold of Jesse Jackson's wife. Jackie has had THAT look for years.

I agree, Jackie would be a prime candidate.

Here's a link to the article in today's AJC. There are more pictures as well.

OMG yes!!!!

I haven't watched my tape yet. I'll look at it tonight.

How about men that need an updated look? I say Oprah needs to grab Earl Graves. I don't think he will EVA let those side burns go.

Jesse needs one too.

Al Sharpton

oooooooooooo SWEET JESUS!!! Get some clippers. He needs to be a NAPPY HEAD for sure. IF Al ever cuts the perm and gets rid of the doobie, so will I.




**praying: LAwd please let AL WAIT!!** :o :p :cool:

We are live at the Sharpton Corpporate offices, where Al will undergo a massive make over per the request of ERRYBOTTY!
Right here, is his dressing room, complete with Soft & Beautiful perms, hot curlers, straightning combs, flat irons, Pank Lotion, Lotta Body for Perms and TONS of holding sprays and GEL.


Stylist: So, Al, what look are we creating for you today???

Al Sharpton sitting there looking like a black version of Boss Hogg from the Dukes of Hazzard.

Al: Yes, and a bucket of chicken.....right, lemme repeat the order to you, potata salitt, mustudd greens, yeah the small one, peach cobbla, uh huhn..........right, and a side order of whitings.

Al: Oh, man im sorry, what were you saying about a look

Stylist: it's ok Al, just wanted to know what style were you looking for??

Al: Man just give me a press and curl......paste them sides down with some gel and be done......if you want you can throw a couple of pin curls in the front that aughtta make it look betta. Then Ofra can leave me alone.

Gyrl7, you are a straight up mess!!! LLLLLOOOLLLLLLL!!!!:D :D :D

Ofra - LMBO!!!!!!

I saw the show yesterday & I was blown away! Coretta Scott King looked phenomenal! Oprah always does the best make-overs! I think I'm gonna start lookin a mess so "someone" can write in to Oprah about me!

you have no dayum sense
 

LMBAO @ salitt and the side order of whitings.

If we're gonna do male makeovers, don't forget Bisho Magic Juan. If we're gonna have to sit through all these "pimp" videos everyone makes sure he makes a cameo in, at least get him something green and gold that looks nice. And please get rid of those damn gold costume jewelry covered chalices he drinks out of.

What about Don King? Somebody needs to get ahold of that head.

And, in honor of the playoffs, Spurs #50 David Robinson, he has had that half a box since Jesus was in Pampers.

CCCCCCCCCCCCTFU

Classy Lady you ain't neva lied!

I'm so sick of seeing that do!

Coretta Scott King Slideshow of Makeover
 

Quick view: http://html.wsbtv.com/sh/slideshow/_...h20544s11.html

Aah, David Robinson is retiring. If we have to have a makeover, why not give Tim Duncan a personality?:p

Re: Mrs. King, before and after:
 

I saw a snipet of the show and the new look makes her face look much softer. I like the new look.

I saw the caveman and woman, and they really needed a make over.

as i sit here watching Fame. . .
