Or "Words and Music", I agree with you. You can see a difference in her performance in this film compared to the earlier ones. This movie was made after Lena's...
Sbwebmaster did you see the movie Safe In Hell with Nina Mae McKinney? She gave a pretty good performance with the few scenes she had. People don't know today...
Also in one of your post about Nina Mae being sterotypical in Pie Pie Blackbird seated with a rag on her head - as was the custom for black women in the films...
I have just uploaded a lot of photos. Note that each page in each folder only shows 16 thumbnail photos and to see many of the new ones you have to click to...
Savannah I TIVO-ed "Safe In Hell" but have not had a chance to watch it yet. I hope to be able to watch it this weekend. Just to clarify my comments on Nina...
Or "Miss Jackson" because folks sure think she's "nasty". I don't though. I LOVE her and was not at all offended by her performance at the Superbowl. I think...
i was wondering the same thing..... sbwebmaster <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> wrote: Or "Miss Jackson" because folks sure think she's "nasty". I don't though. I...
if they do make the movie does anyone know the story? What part of Lenas life are they showing? Will they deal with her bisexuality? If someone knoes pls write...
Read below, it appeared on a Janet board. It looks like a press release. HOLLYWOOD ABC scraps Lena Horne biopic because of Jackson incident; The network will...
I just went through the Hollywood issue of Vanity Fair and under the photo of Janet posing "as Lena Horne" it says: "With the spring release of her first new...
Hi there, I'm new to the Lena Horne group and am grateful to have found it. I've loved her soul and talent for many years now and sing her songs as exercise...
ABC's loss (if that suspicious-looking "press release" is genuine) will be a tremendous gain for one of its competitors. For better or worse, Janet's...
About one week ago, the advertising man who composed many jingles, including the Schaefer beer song that was written "to capture the market of drinkers who...
i agree with sbwebmaster....if abc pulls out on the project, some other network will get it happily..look what happened when cbs pulled out on the ronald...
Wow...It's interesting to me that the bulk of the comments and replies regarding the whole J.Jackson/J.Timberlake thing seem to revolve around whether or not...
I feel the same way as you and I couldnt say it as eloquently as you did. I think we need more "Women Power" here! Sometimes the guys just don't get it. we...
The fallout continues on Janet Jackson actions at the Super bowl... As for what will happen to the Lena movie, I think the main issue is if the film has been...
Well I don't think Janet can play Lena. All it would be is a push up for her, it won't give much recognition to Lena. Lena is too original to play. I rather...
I'm sure you did love it sbwebmaster but people who knows what good entertainment did, sure didn't like it. Entertainers just don't have it. sbwebmaster...
sbwebmaster- she played a lot of roles in movies which weren't stereotypical, she played more roles that Josephine Baker and Fredi Washington. Hallelujah, Safe...
That sounds vaguely like an insult, Savannah. I "LOVE" Janet Jackson the entertainer, I was not referring to her Superbowl halftime performance. The important...
sbwebmaster, i think i love you....you always have the right thing to say.. and i agree wholeheartedly........but, as you know, everyone will have an opionion,...
Well, more interesting reading here still underscoring my previous/last comment...What a sad state of affairs when the blaringly obvious and most important...
Wren, I respect your right to voice your opinion and I think you have done so quite well. What bothers me about what you have written is that apart from what ...
webmaster, webmaster....lol! you hit it on the head... after reading the previous response, i sat and wondered, when did janet break the law? and you brought...
Does anyone know if it would be safe to say that Lena recorded her last CD 3-4 years ago (Being Myself). If anyone has any info on this please share it. ...
WOW! All of you are really engaging in some lively discussion, keep it up! It's fun to read even if we don't all agree. Intelligent disagreement is healthy. I...
The CD "Being Myself" was released almost 6 years ago, in 1998. It was her third CD for the Blue Note label. From what I read in '98, there were plans to...
Hey, again... I, too, enjoy a good, intelligent conversation and am always interested in learning actual facts and exploring various attitudes and view points....
I wanted to add something. I'm wondering, Sbwebmaster, are you old enough to remember the Petula Clark – Harry Belafonte TV special that you referred to or...
