Bernie Mac’s TV family attended his emotional memorial service in Chicago on Saturday. L to R: Dee Dee Davis, Camille Winbush, Jeremy Suarez and Kellita Smith. I’m not feeling the shorts set/ashy knees combo on Camille. I think she could have done better for Bernie.

Bernie Mac’s TV wife Kellita Smith (The Bernie Mac Show) brushes some dust off the lapel of her TV son, Jeremy Suarez, while TV daughters Dee Dee Davis, left, and Camille Winbush, right, look on.

Mo’Nique arrives at her Evening with Mo’Nique show at Seldom Blues in Detroit on Friday. Have you ever noticed when a big girl loses weight she also loses that quality that made her so attractive? I have rarely ever seen an unattractive big girl. It’s a pleasure being around big women who are confident and happy with themselves. It’s those chicks who obsess about losing weight so they can look like a “supermodel” that are a pain in the butt.

Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and her longtime girlfriend, actress Portia de Rossi tied the knot on the grounds of their lavish estate in Beverly Hills yesterday. These grainy pics look like they were shot from a mile away through a Superzoom telephoto lens. But even from a distance you can see the glow on their faces. Congrats to the happy couple!

LOL! Everytime I see Benny “Sweetness” Medina, I think about this video.
Oh, and may I say Gayle King is GORGEOUS for 50! No wonder Oprah gave her a million dollars to keep her on lock…. ![]()

PICTURE PERFECT
Mary J Blige strikes a pose while vacationing in St. Tropez with friends on Saturday. It’s hard to believe this Diva is 37 with a bod like that!

Mary assumes the role of paparazzi to take her own picture with hubby and friends.

Playwright/director Tyler Perry and former talk show host Star Jones also attended LA Reid’s soiree in the Hamptons last weekend.

Last week, rumors were swirling in London that British chanteuse Amy Winehouse had gained 5 lbs. I’m happy to report that the rumors are true! If she keeps this up she will end up looking better than her wax figure at Madame Tussauds in no time.

Must u find the negative in every little thing? And do u research before u type ur captions. Those kids were his TV nieces and nephew (he is gorgeous now!!) Monique & Mary look good and healthy, which I cant find any fault in
And why did u congratulate the lesbians and u never congratulate the heteros (ie Jay & Bey)? Honestly, they may be over in 6 months just like every other Hollywood couple
1. Can you believe Jeremy Suarez is 18? I can’t. I got a funny feeling Bernie would care less about Camille’s capris or knees. Kellita is a brick house. I want to be like her when I grow down.
2. Did I read it correctly? Are you being critical of an obese person trying to get healthy? The thing I was wondering about was why her eyebrows are lighter than her hair. That’s what’s making her look kinda strange.
3. Congrats to Ellen and her boo!
4. I always felt Mary had one of the best bods in the game.
5. Star looked very youthful.
6. Sandra, I commend you on finding the best pics of Amy possible from that performance. The other ones I saw had me praying for her once again.
sandra, was that “supermodel”remark aimed a ciara?
Camille knees are NOT ashy I saw pics on another site and I think it was the light from the sun. I believe Monique had her stomach stapled or the lap-band surgery which isnt bad, I had friends who have had the quick procedure.
Have you ever noticed when a big girl loses weight she also loses that quality that made her so attractive?
***********************************************************
Not hating on the big girls but Monique was never attractive, there’s noting attractive about being over weight..I don’t think most women like her are neccasarily happy to be fat it’s more of “I’m fat and I’m just going to be fat and accept it” kind of attitide..I’ve always had issues with Monique and her ignorant veiws in regards to weight, especially when she starts tearing down skinny women and saying shyt like “you know black women were raised on chicken, patatoes, and cornbread” and we were but that’s also the same type of food that’s killing African Americans every year..But I am happy to see that she has lost weight and hope that she will continue to do so.
************************************************************
Rip Bernie!! The family looks damn good.
***********************************************************
Ellen and Portia, no offense as I watched the Olympics and football games looking at all of those men with their sculptured bodies, muscular abs, backs and thighs with all kinds of nasty thoughts going through my head, I just can’t get down like that with a woman but whatever makes them happy.
**********************************************************
Mary J body is smoking hot!!!, Still don’t like her husband, it’s just something sneaky about him.
monique is STIll gorgeous IMo.
congrats to ellen and portia.
mary is fly. love the new and happy mary . she deserves to be happy .
How come some men have to be down-low? Damn, Tyler Perry is looking more suspect then ever, and I like him!!
Monique is NOT funny to me, I just never saw her as attractive because she is so LOUD! I cant see pass that because her LOUD talking bust my ear-drums and my eye-sight!!
being overweight may not be good , but neither is walking around looking like a crackhead which is what society wants the whole world to look like and not everyone is fortunate enough to be a size 2.
THANK YOU .. @ MizzD & stefany … Mo’Nique is Confident .. attractive? maybe to someone .. she CAN invest in a leg waxing .. that ish is RI-DAM-DICULOS ! .. lookin like she got buckwheat in a leg lock.
Marriage is between a Man and a Woman .
Bernie’s TV Fam looks Great.
wow that was some morning hate. lol i think they all looked good except amy crack head.
bernie mack tv fam looked good, especially for going to a funeral. they were dressed well and well groomed, you cant ask for anything more. funeral are about paying respect to the deceased, not making fashion statements.
mo is only like 5 ft tall, she needed to loose the weigh because she forty and you know health problems will follow with age.
i think star looked good, shoot shes like 46 and wasnt a stunner to begin with, tyler at least was dressed decent, no saggin pants or do rags. mary wont see 37 unless its 370, i remember staying home and seeing her on phil donahue and you gonna tell me she was what 18 ? yea right….
you know people who have huge wedding divorce yr later, i can name not one person who is together after having a huge wedding. if u really in love and wont to make it work, all u need is god justice of the peace and cook out in yo mamas back yard.
Oh Yeah .. I forgot .. Mary J is a TRUE Diva … Work IT !

I don’t think being a size two is fortunate. In the real world a size 4 is ultra thin and you don’t even see a hint of curves until size 6. In my opinion a perfect size is 8. It’s still small, but you can see SOME curves. My butt disappears under size 10 and I ain’t feeling that. So to hell with Hollywood. I want a sexy womanly body, not one of a teenaged boy.

I doubt every couple that has a big wedding gets divorced, but I’m with you. If I ever do get married my plan is for it to be in my small family church in NJ and the reception will be in my deceased grandfather’s back yard and the food will be prepared by friends and family. I just prefer family over flash and I wouldn’t dream of going into debt for a wedding.

I believe this. I got married by the Justice Of The Peace in 1997. The same summer after I got married I attended 4 weddings (beautiful weddings with water falls and endless bridesmaids and groomsmen). My husband and I are the only couple married. Most of the marriages lasted longer only becaue of the hold up of the divorce. (all of the marriages did not last 18 months).
-Everyone looked nice at the funeral sandra. Thos kids grow up so fast…..seems like it just yesterday……
-So happy for Ellen. congrats to them.
-mary looks great.
-As for monique, glad to see her looking good. You know she has those twins, and its right for her to get healthy, not only for herself, but for them. I think she looks great.
And i’d take being a size 8,10,12,14 over being a size 2 or 4 anyday. I can’t stand to look at these ultra skinny chicks, who look like on windy day, the breeze would just blow them away. If thats what u r naturally, then fine. I’m just saying……i don’t find anything hot about it.
I wish to God we could retire Sandra’s use of the word HAWT. It is K I L L I N G me!!!!
MJB looks good! I don’t think I’ve ever seen that much of Mary’s skin before.
Ellen and Portia look so happy! Congrats. Cute lesbian couples are so much more accepted than the bus driving bull dagger looking lesbian couples. Yeaaaa Ellen!
And Mo is looking great! I can’t wait until she gets to the stage where she isn’t gasping for breath as she talks. Go MO!!
@ Bird and Anna… I’m going out of the country to get married (when that happens) and if you want to attend you’ll need a passport and YOUR OWN money to attend …
I’d rather have a nice Home to come back to .. than a big wedding and a huge diamond … get me the “rock” on out 5 yr anniversary ..i’m over 40 and a realist…

Mo is a TALL woman - at least 5 ft. 8. And that is a conservative estimate. I saw her at a book signing in Houston and she was a large woman all around.

^^^ i don’t think it matters how big the wedding is. it’s the people involved that are willing to make the marriage work that makes the difference. i have seen people go to the courthouse and they still have gotten divorced.
I guess the problem is, it’s usually the woman who wants a wedding and forgets it comes with a husband. Some just want a husband to say they have a husband or to say “I am married”. Honestly, marriage is another job. If you don’t work at it, you will be fired or want to fire. If one takes the time to get to know their spouse it does make the job much easier.

++++ my broher did the same my mother said he showed up with his girl they went to the justice of the peace with his daughter one day, that been 10 yrs ago.

it doesn’t matter how big the wedding is, it’s whether the people love each other enough to remain committed to working out their differences over a lifetime–most ppl are not
I love Ellen and Portia but civil commitment maybe, not marriage..maybe it would have looked better if Ellen had worn a dress too, what’s up with that when some lesbians want to dress like a man..she’s a pretty woman and has nice legs..oh well good luck E n P
speaking as a divorced person. all the big weddings and good intentions in the world will not keep a marriage together if you don’t reeeeeally want to be there and you’re not reeeeally committed to staying married..good luck to one and all

We’re –> <– except for the ring part. I want my rock. I want it so bad that I told my ex fiance that I didn’t care if he got it from the pawn shop or a crack head, but I want at least 2 carats. Still I don’t want to go into debt over that either. If a couple is still paying off the engagement ring well into the marraige then in truth the man didn’t buy it. I admit I have a diamond jones and it would look a little sad if my engagement ring was smaller than the diamond rings I have already purchased for myself.
@ Bird … We are ->.<- .. on the ring .. I too want my rock .. and It can be from the pawn shop .. lol @ the crack head .. lol .. I just don’t want to be paying for it well in to the marriage … lol
People who get married to fit in and feel apart of what’s expected are the ones I feel don’t last…
Am I the only person who doesn’t think Gail and O are lovers? I love their friendship. As big as O is its great she has a friend (pre fame) that she can count on. A million dollars is nothing to Oprah when compared to having a true friend.
@iscream, naw, you ain’t alone! I just think they’re best friends and ain’t nothin wrong with that! My bff can expect a check when I get rich, and I can expect the same from her. We hold each other down, and even though there is much evidence to the contrary these days, it is possible for two women to be real friends to each other. All women ain’t petty, man-hungry, catty or on the DL! =)
and I cosign with purepisces and iscream …
Ellen & Portia look wonderful!
And to throw my 2 cents in- Marriage is for two people who love each other. Period (and for folks who want to run the risk of getting 1/2 their sh*t took in a divorce settlement).
She could marry a monkey for all I care! If she likes it, I love it! Good Luck to them!
i dont think gail and o are lovers. im so surprised a the people who they they are you can be best friends and not sex each other up.
they have been friends since 21 and 22. the chicks i know who are best friends like that are close. o has 1.5 billion, 1 million to her is like 100 dollar bill. i think if my best friend had a billion he give me a million, i dont know if i give him a million i might invest a million for him. lol thru break up, divorces, children, job lay offs best friends step when family sometimes turn a deth ear or their backs.
MoNique looks like she has shed some pounds. THANK GOD!
Ellen and Portia looks so very perfect togetrher. That is so sweet!
I like Mo’Nique, but you can’t tell me that when she states that she loves being big that anyone belives it. No one wants to be too fat or too skinny. If you are too fat you are labled lazy. If you are too skinny you are a crackhead or anexoric. Mo’Nique does look nice
portia’s dress is gorgeous! and ellen is just doing her! she does not wear dresses — ever. i actually think her suit ensemble compliments portia’s dress quite nicely.
did you guys know that ellen is in her 50s? i think she looks really good for her age.
