Oprah's Legends Ball
I'm surprised that there is not a thread about this. But over the weekend Oprah through a Ball to honor African American women who she feel has paved the way for her and others. It was a black and white ball and from the stuff I saw on the news it was some fine sista's there. It was a who's who of Black and White Hollywood. Damn Oprah, where was my invite! I heard it was no press there so I don't know if anyone can find pictures of the event.

I saw some pix. Yahoo made it impossible to post pictures, so I can't link it. I saw a picture of Soror Star, wearing a nice white dress, w/o BGA.

Oprah hails Legends
May 17, 2005
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. -- Oprah Winfrey rolled out the carpet for a lavish tribute to pioneering black women, then strolled it herself in a red Vera Wang ball gown. Guests including Usher, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were on hand for the Legends Ball on Saturday night.
The talk-show host joked with friends and praised the 25 honorees, including Coretta Scott King, Diana Ross, Maya Angelou and Cicely Tyson. ''These are women who, when I was growing up, made a difference for me,'' Winfrey told reporters. ''The first time I saw Diana Ross and the Supremes on 'The Ed Sullivan Show,' it changed my life.''

I agree... Janet Jackson is slowing getting bigger and bigger and Patti, Dionne or Ashanti wasn't looking to hot.

I think it was Oprah's Monday show that she showed the party. I happened to catch it because I wanted to see this woman that lost 360 pounds.

But I saw some other pics, and guess what...BGA is there...she didn't leave home without him. If I knew how to post the pic I would.

As I go back to the picture. Patti seems like she's been under the knife...AGAIN. She almost reminds me of the late Celia Cruz.

I believe they are airing the show on Tuesday. Oprah is looking like a DIVA in that RED dress. Also that pant suit was cute too but I don't know if she changed at the ball or if that was a picture from somewhere else.
