NAACP Image Awards
 

I know it just started 15 minutes ago, but I figured I'd start the topic b4 I forgot as I did with the Soul Train Awards http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/redface.gif

I think I'll borrow from my favorite morning DJ in Atlanta (and a member a Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.) in asking for: the GOOD, the BAD, the UGLY, the WAS THAT REALLY NECESSARY and the I ALMOST DIED LAUGHING WHEN...

the GOOD: everyone looked WONDERFUL...the gowns, oh my goodness...everything was very well done and classy.

the BAD: Shemar Moore. I'm sorry y'all, I'm sick of seeing Mr. "I know I'm finer than you think I am"

the UGLY: Arsenio's hair

the WAS THAT REALLY NECESSARY: Gerald Levert humping the air during Sindey Poiter's tribute

the I AMLOST DIED LAUGHING WHEN: J. Anthony Brown, Cedric the Entertainer & Rickey Smiley AND Chris Tucker & Bill Clinton

HANDS OFF, EYES OFF, MY MAN!!!! I don't want to lay the smack down on your candy @$$, ROFLMAO!!

THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS ALL AROUND. The speeches were beautiful (some bought tears to my eyes), the dresses were CLASSY and SEXY all in one http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

Arsenio's hair made me go http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif !!! so did Babyface's.

SO a STANDING O for my people tonight working our IMAGE to the highest power.

THE GOOD: The dresses, Ced's suit, the speeches, THE ROCK (KIML22 I am WATCHING YOU http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif), Sanaa Lathan (although she took my other man, http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif looks like he is happy), Ialso liked how Steve Harvey's wife presented him the award

THE BAD: Arsenio's hair

Was THAT really necessary: JAY LENO, although his jokes were funny

I FELL OUT LAUGHING WHEN: Chris Tucker interviewed Bill CLinton and Bill said he enjoyed EVERY DAY/MOMENT of being President, Sister Odell's singing, J. Anthony and his arthritic butterfly, Chris Tucker questioning MY MAN's ABILITY to read http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif

I have to agree with you on those points although I'm not totally over Mr. Shemar Moore. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/cool.gif And about Gerald Levert, the brotha was feeling the song too much

Dang...I thought I was the only one tired of that boy.

The sister on Soul Food.....the Attorney???

What the world?????????

She went cold Toni Braxton on us>>>>>>

that was not necessary at all..

Chris Tucker is just so dam funny even when he is serious.....

I dropped tears for Steve "Que Psi Phi" Harvey.......I could not hold it!

Kelli: how you gonna shout out your Kappa DJ and not acknowledge the Bruhs in your post (Steve Harvey and Ricky Smiley)? The Kappa Klave is coming soon enough and you can get your fix on, lol.

I love to see a class event. People accept their awards speaking English and conjugating verbs properly, unaccompanied by Ray-Ray and Pookie an' nem, while wearing the latest gangsta chic Roc-a-Wear.

Did anyone notice the number of sistas with white dates?

I didn't know my ex got over our break-up til I saw her with Omar. It wouldn't have worked out anyway, she's not a Delta.

I think I heard Chris Tucker make this remark on more than one occasion..."Image". So maybe, Suzanne de Passe (producer) wanted this award show taken to another "level."

I was impressed! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

This is probably the closest we will get to an academy award show (black tie affair)

She needs to become the Soul Train Award's producer...lol

Were the awards for music omitted this year or not televised? I thought I remember the show acknowledging music (categories), too.

Yeah, the sistas did have their white dates...I guess they have to get theirs too... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Whatever floats your boat!

Other than Sydney Poitier, Cuba Gooding, and Taye Diggs, who else was down with tha swirl? Was Shemar there with his she-man? lol.

Chris Tucker was big on the Image thing. He and the Rock were funny. Suzanne DePasse used to produce the Soul Train Awards, but that is back when Luther and Patty were the hosts. I still remember how pissed they were when LL got up there an acted a fool.

http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif I'm glad to know you're checking my every move like that. And I'm even more glad to know that the acknowledgement police are on the case. I really wish some of the Bruhs would get over finding fault every time a Soror mentions a frat that's not Omega. Pretty much everyone knows that Steve and Ricky are Bruhs, and if they didn't, you just told them. Regardless of all that, it was IRRELEVANT to what I was saying. I'm sure neither of them are losing sleep because I didn't shout them out. Maybe if there were more Bruhs who acted like they have home training, maybe I wouldn't prefer Kappas...but that's another thread for a different day.

BTW, if you're so into the ACKNOWLEGEMENT, why haven't you wished me a Happy Anniversary yet??

I agree, this was our BLACK tie affair. I was impressed that people kept their speeches simple. I found most of the speeches to bring tears to my eyes, especially Steve's, Mo'nique's, and Terri Vaughn's.

I liked Nicole Ari Parker's dress. It was nothing like Toni Braxton's Hanky/curtain/slip.

I don't know if anyone caught this but when they were singing AMEN and were spotlighting Sidney Poitier, but there was a sista behind him at the awards wearing DENIM CAPRIS, I was sitting there looking like http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/mad.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif

Shalom Everyone~

The Good: Bill Clinton admitting that he is African American...see, that's something I've been hollering out for 8 years... "Bill is Black, Bill is Black...look at Chelsea, her hair is nappier then mine, her nose is wider then mine, her lips are fuller then mine and the gurl got more back then me!" Don't think ol' boy was joking when he made the joke/comment...I'm telling you WILLIE (Bill) IS BLACK! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Shalom~

Hey Doggystyle82, I thought I was the only one who thought that...lol. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

12dn94dst: He's my favorite DJ too!!! If I could only get the station in the office (LOL).


Okay, here's my GB&U:

Good: The tribute to Steve Harvey. Rickey was too funny.

Bad: Arsenio's hair. He looks like a girl.

Ugly: Babyface's hair! Ughh!

I ALMOST DIED LAUGHING WHEN... Chris Tucker was joking w/Bro. Bill about Harlem.

[This message has been edited by Mz. Sports Luva (edited March 12, 2001).]

Aww Sis, why you gotta pull a Michael Jackson on me and get all sensitive. I was just joking with ya. I would be glad to shout you out on your anniversary. Now that I have been cyber-spanked with a rolled-up newspaper and properly paper-trained, I will post my anniversary congrats to you.

My personal favorite moments: I was moved by Sidney Poitier's speech - so dignified, elegant, and eloquent. Ah yes...and the banter between The Rock and Chris Tucker. (I just wish The Rock had done his eyebrow-thing, but he didn't oblige... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif)

~Temme proverb, Sierre Leone~

the GOOD: I just love to see my people dressed up and acting dignified. The grammys and other music awards leave a lot to be desired.

the BAD: My ex has been swearing for the last year that Mr. Moore is gay. I didn't think that that was the case, but I think yawl might be right. He is a little tooooo happy all the dang time.

the UGLY: Arsenio's hair, Baby Face's hair.

Was that NECESSARY: Gerald Levert humping like he aint had none. I am not a fan of Gerald at all. I am going to get flack for this one but so what. I cringe each time I hear someone talk about Bill Clinton being black or being the first Black President. He was a good president, and I would vote for him again if he was able to run, but I don't have the affection for him that most black folks seem to have. Was it necessary to give him that award? I am no longer a member of the NAACP, so my voice really doesn't count. I am just sick of black folks acting like he is one of us, when he is not. We are on his d%^& more than Monica ever was. Ok, I am getting off of my pedestal.

the I AMLOST DIED LAUGHING WHEN: Ced was funny, and so was J Anthony Brown.

MN

http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif Gotta love that! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Oh...By the way, I don't know if anyone on this thread is in law enforcement, but if so, can you please find the person who continues to steal the buttons, snaps, and/or zippers off of all of Shemar Moore's shirts and arrest them!? I mean D@mmit, man...we get it! You think you have a great chest! Thaaaank you...NEEEEXT! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif For the love of God, put something all the way on at least once! I'll give you a dollar.... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
<<soror6 snoring from how bored she is from his chest>>

ROFLMAO!! Let's call the fashion police. HEY BOBBY EARL, this is the LIGHTSKINNED BROTHER'S POSTER CHILD http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

I think that his chest, to him, is his claim to fame.

Man, Arsenio's hair must have looked really bad based on all of these comments. I saw him a couple of weeks ago with some twists, locs, or whatever it was and I must say it was NOT cute at all.
