All these women look beautiful. BUt what happened to Angela Basset, Queen LAtifah, Loretta Devine, Regina King and other folks that would be absolutely beautiful to grace the red carpet?

Beyonce figures on enough lists, she is not the only African American Female in the lime light. Did you not notice the focus of the list was mainly actresses? Let them honor some other women sometimes.

I think Quincy Jones couldn’t get enough of Kerry Washington so he had to be in the pics.

Kerry Washington is pretty but her mouth looks weird. Did she have plastic surgery that went wrong or what? If these pictures are supposed to be showing all sides of black beauty why is every woman so light? Eva and Meagan, who possibly had skin lightening treatments, are the darkest people in the line up. Kim Coles is the only sizeable person on there so they ALMOST got the “Beauty in all shade and sizes” moniker…

It saddens me to hear you talk like this. You want to know why? This is exactly what people want us to do. To play this game that they have created. Halle is Black and White. No getting around it. It is up to her to decide what she is and what she wants to call herself. Who are you to judge and say she isn’t this she isn’t that? What would make her more white for your standards? Seriously, would you want someone to call you out? Don’t worry about what White people consider Black and White. That’s what some of them want. Work on supporting our fellow brothers and sisters.

For Bklynbadbwoy: To say Halle Berry doesn’t belong on this list is ASININE!!! She is black…in every sense of the word. When you look at her you see a beautiful black woman (despite her mother being white). If you feel she is “lifes leftovers”, what do you think of President Obama??? As a black man you should never want to stoop to “white america’s” low tolerance/acceptance of minorities. Let’s not make ignorant comments. Moving Along====>>> This is a great variety of beautiful, black, and successful women. Why wasn’t Gabrielle Union on here and why was Quincy Jones on here??? SMH!!!

“Essence Celebrates Hollywood’s Black Women”

halle berry is half black. shes not black enough to be down with essence in my opinion. :-D amazing how the black community accept everything with a drop of black in em, while white people don’t accept anything that doesn’t have 100% white in em. where so willing to take lifes left overs.

Vivica Fox looked like Grace Jones in her picture, she looked kind of rough in the face. Everybody else was great though. They had 3 out of 5 of my favorite celebrity women: Meagan Good, Taraji P. Henson, and Kerry Washington, they are GORGEOUS
