Celebs Out & About: Notorious NYC Premiere (1/7)

Rapper Jamal Woolard, aka Gravy, played Biggie. I hear he did the best he could with his limited acting skills. Naturi Naughton played Lil Kim.

Singer Faith Evans attended with Biggie’s son, left, and her other kids.

Dr. Drew has all the pics from last night’s premiere of the Notorious B.I.G. biopic in NYC last night. I really don’t give this movie much hope at the box office based on the trailers that I’ve seen.

All the stars attended the premiere except for Lil Kim who objected to the film’s depiction of her.

Biggie’s mom Voletta Wallace did try to reach out to Lil Kim because she wasn’t aware that Kim endured such abuse at the hands of her son. She tells Essence magazine:

“I would love to speak to Lil’ Kim, because I need to ask more about this love relationship because I really didn’t like the way he treated her and I’m praying that that’s not it. Only she can answer those questions. She’s a sweet girl and I didn’t think she deserved to be treated the way he treated her, if that’s the case.”

The very beautiful Angela Bassett played Biggies mother Voletta Wallace

Derek Luke played Sean Combs as best as he could.

Sean Combs

No this isn’t a tranny. It’s actually Ciara (can you believe it?) :lolol:

The beautiful Mary J Blige attended

Rapper Lil Mama trying her best to bring back the afro puff (let it go girl). I don’t know if Lil Mama appears in the film. But if she does, I’m sure she did the best that she could.

Angel Lola Luv

Jay Z was there. Blame him for the ridiculous Urkle glasses style that’s all the rage in Hollywood right now

Charles

Angel lola looks gorgeous!! And So does mary J, dont think this movie will do well but yay =D OLD sandra is back

iscream

Love the Pic’s can’t wait to see this movie.

Mrs. Wallace needs to fall back and leave Kim alone. Don’t try and reach out to her now that you done went on radio (media) and made her out to be a jumpoff (which she was). Big is gone and all yall inc Kim is eating good off of his name. Leave her be.

By the way Faith’s book is good. I know I said it yesterday but it really is. Especially if you were apart of that era. They need to do a movie on Mary (the Queen of Hip Hop soul)

Who would play Mary?
Who would play K-Ci?
Daisy

I HEART D Luke!!!! His swagger is off the charts!!! Luv him yes I do. Only reason im going to see this movie is to see him.

Faith looks great. Her daughter is gonna be a problem for her in a few more yrs. Wonder if she can sing?

MJB looks nice love the boots.

Angela Bassett hair is on point and im loving her on ER!
Daisy

I forgot to add Angel is a very cute girl. Hope she doesn’t get used up and spit out before she knows what hit her.
Alana

YES, where was Taylor Dior and her mother? I know she would not have missed this photo opportunity.

ok, here we go…..

Naturi: I LOVE your dress.

Faith: What a beautiful family. Her daughter is almost as big as she is. By the way, how old is Faith’s daughter?

Angela: This woman is absolutely gorgeous to me. Cute dress

Derek/Sean: Both look very dapper in their suits.

Ciara: Just doesn’t look like herself. Is it me or is she starting to look like Olivia (former 1st lady of G-Unit)?

Mary: Love the outfit but the purse could’ve stayed at home

Lil Mama: Try again!!!

Angel: Thank you,thank you, thank you for looking a LOT more classy than you usually do. Now all we need for you to do is get rid of that tattoo on your neck. Mmmkay?

Jay Z: If those are perscription classes, please proceed to America’s Best for some contacts. Those glasses are ugly. Leave that fad for the Chris Browns and Teyannas. I’m done!
Shauny

First let me say that I am a HUGE Biggie fan. I LOVED this mans lyrical skills. RIP B.I.G

O.K, of course I am going to see the movie no matter how many negative reviews are given. Faith’s daughter is bigger than her now and cute. Lil Biggie is the perfect blend of his mommy and daddy, too handsome. Derek Luke looks yummy, and I love Mary’s jacket and boots. No comment on anyone else.
heartbreaker

@ iscream

You are sooooooo correct! Unless you were part of that era, you will NEVER understand how good this movie will be–even if all the actors sucked!! Badgirl ’95 for life!! lol
teecee

i think they all showed up look good. there was no body looking bad. jayz isnt a dress up kinda guy so u cant expect him to be. i might go to my momma n find my old school glasss. lol
heartbreaker

@ Alana

I was floored when I didn’t see her as the first post….

There is something obscene about Angel Lola Luv being in the same room as Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance. I’m still looking forward to this movie. Miss Voletta really didn’t know her son was a ho? It was no secret.
Charles

LIL mama looks a hot ass mess sstupid ghetto bitch
http://myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

Biggie Junior lucked out on the looks considering who his daddy is. But I think Faith might need to be a little more concerned about the fitness of her children as well as herself. If Lil Biggie is that size now, he gonna be huge by his 20’s.
Daisy

@Teece Not saying Jay had to dress up(it is a hip hop movie after all) but doesnt he say he started the button down trend which is dressier than what he had on at the prem? I have seen him in a suit or two as well. Just saying.
Daisy

@Bird I was thinking the same thing but didn’t want to go there..lol He needs to start backing away from the table ASAP.
kwallace577

i am sorry but ciara need to stop playing with her face. has she had WORK done to it? why?

you not right with the “best that they could” disclaimers sandra.

i thought faith had 4 chiren? maybe the other is too young too be out late? idk.
http://myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

Daisy,

If by swagger, you mean his walk then COSIGN ALL DAY. Derek Luke is trying to knock Denzel off his thrown with that sexy to the extreme tip of his. I don’t knock interracial marraiges, but he walk is so hood that I just can see him with a white woman. I hope she appreciates the sexiness of his hood swagger (walk).

Who would play Mary?
Who would play K-Ci?
*****************************************

I think Brandy could do Mary justice. She’s no slouch as an actress. I can’t think of an actor broke down enough to play K-Ci. T.I. has the bird chest but is too light and looks too clean. Maybe Lorenz is a good enough actor to pull off the crackishness.
http://myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

That is a Ciara impersonator!

They say Naturi stole the show! We will see…I’ma be the first mo fo in line. *if it plays here* This town is so suspect at times!

Derek Luke is looking delicious these days!

MARY J’S OUTFIT WOULD’VE BEEN PERFECT WITH DENIM AND NOT FREAKING BLACK! All that brown is matching perfect!

That jacket is the BIZZZZZZ!!
iscream

@ Bird good choices.

How about Marcus (Moesha lil Brother) to play KCi… yeah I know it would be weird with Bran & Marcus

I think Meagen Good would be a good Mary. She already got the I’m so hood part down pack.
Daisy

@DB I will fight you over D Luke..lol He has always been nice looking..lol Stop looking at my man like that..lol
Daisy

@Bird his wife is NOT white..lol She is latin and they are our cousins and I would date a Dominican or P Rican in a heartbeat.
KAT

derek luke is looking real tasty right there getting his grown man on. are those contacts that lil mess, uh, lil mama have on? i know her eyes are light, but i didn’t think that they were green. i also heard that naturi stole the movie. ciara and angel looks cute.

*************************

Ahhh, I didn’t know that. Yeah, as long as she ain’t from Spain then she probably can appreciate that swag.
Daisy

@Bird as you can see I know about my man..lol I would have gotten with him when he was broke as well..lol With his fine self.
http://myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

Daisy, please! Once I put this hand to hand combat on yo’ a$$, you’ll sit on down!

And then me and Derek will be touchin, squeezin, fundlin’ and rubbin all in yo face!
Shauny

I know he’s too old but whenever I think K Ci I think Tommy Davidson. The only other kinda skinny lanky person I could think of is Trey Songz but I don’t think they could make him ugly enough to be K Ci.

I think our girl Keyshia Cole would nail the Mary J role. She doesn’t have to study too much because she’s just like Mary (minus the drugs) when she came out.

I can almost see it…No More Drama…The life of Mary J Blige starring Keyshia Cole and Mary, Trey Songz or Tommy Davidson as K Ci and Donell Jones and JoJo.
brwnsugga4you

is that faith’s daughter in that pic with her…??? d*mn! she grew up.
Daisy

@DB LOL Don’t make me pull out a can of azz whoopin..lol I said it before and I will say it again I will FIGHT you for D Luke..lol I am still MAD at Oprah for not having him on the show when Denzel was on to promote Antwan Fisher the nerve of her..lol
Daisy

K Cole is trying to do her own movie with J Singleton. I feel since she did the reality show what else is there for her to tell us.
iscream

@ Shuny Tommy Davidson would be Perfect as K-ci, perfect. I thought of Key cole but she would have to take some acting lessons.

Mary has style for days. Always has.
ReadTheBlog

Angel looks a little KD Aubert-ish with that long hair. Puff is so big on himself, I am surprised he didn’t play himself, the arrogant bastard. Is Faith still married to Todd Russaw? Wonder what he’s up to, since they were busted for the cocaine and weed? Ciara – girl bye, Lil Mama – girl bye! Courtney Vance – holla at ya girl wit’cho fine self
iscream

Oh & I think Jay looks good with the mini afro.. The glasses are different but he still looking sexy as eva.

I just want those lips on my lips below my hips…
Kymystry

HELLO … ok .. back to work for me
Lala11_7

@ Auntie Sandra…

“Rapper Lil Mama trying her best to bring back the afro puff (let it go girl). I don’t know if Lil Mama appears in the film. But if she does, I’m sure she did the best that she could”
=======================

See…THAT RIGHT UP THERE…that’s why I LOVES ME SOME SANDRAROSE.COM!!!

TOO FUNNY!!!
shagbulli

Looks Like faith couldnt keep that weight off for long.
http://myspace.com/lorettadivine DivineBrown

Angel Lola Luv’s dress looks like it’s from Body Central.

It looks like that stretchy, spandex and lycra blend. That I love New York, Tiffany Pollard Dress material…
Kymystry

who’s OUR cousin’s ? ? i got cousin’s ? ?
SlimA

Sandra,

I love the way you said they all did the “best they could”. Bless your heart.
BayArea

Faith’s book is an excellent read.
Ilovepink1981

If the adorable baby made it to the red carpet then someone would have something negative to say about her being out late.. so Ill be happy if she didn’t attend this event
http://ultimate-assistants.com ursmyle4me

I am going to go see the movie. And then I want to see the tupac movie.

I have faith evans book. It was a good read. She was open about the things she went through, but now I would like to hear lil kim’s side of the story, because faith wasn’t there all the times he was with lil kim. I think that would be a great book.

Oh, if anybody wants to borrow the book, email me. I don’t see myself re-reading this anytime soon.
alexander

I wondered why they didn’t have Mary in this movie. Mary and Kim were tight back in the day. But Mary is the Biz…the Biz!
ELove

@bird
I AGREE about the disturbing vision of Ultimate-Booty-Fakeness-Angel Lola along very ACCOMPLISHED Actors LIKE A-Basset and Hubby

My Youngest Brother IS Better-Looking than Derek Luke…
We call him Sexxy-Chocolate (Real Talk)

@elove tell your brotha to holla at a sista..LOL Send a pic ASAP..lol
