I knew y'all would be on this today!
My take on the show...
DL & Steve were pretty good, although I though DL looked better with the twists. I just CANNOT get with the cornrows! (although the line about having to go to the salon instead of the big girl named Peaches doing it on the front porch was funny!! But why do it [ebonics on purpose--don't want the grammar police to get me!] haveta always be a big girl?!?!?!?)
Serena's dress was just awful!! I wonder if she made it. I think she and Venus are supposed to be in fashion school or something.
I actually liked Camille Cosby's dress, but thought her hair looked like she had just rolled out of bed!
Star Jones is a diva, but I'm sorry that dress was not flattering. If she had had cleavage I woulda thought it was Aretha Franklin!
Lauryn Hill, who was simply beautiful with locs, looked like a 12 year old boy. I was trying to understand the lyrics of the song too, although I love the acoustic sound.
Samuel L. was too cute jammin to OutKast. His wife is a strong woman (and my Spelman Sister--had to throw that in!
)
Why Does Steve Harvey insist on wearing suits in ice cream sherbet colors?!?! Was that mint green???
The honorees were certainly inspirational! And over all, I thought the show was great! This may be a minor thing, but on most award shows they have the honoree go back stage after they get their award. On Essence they walked back to their seat. What's up with that??
