Talk show Diva Oprah Winfrey, left, and First Lady Michelle Obama — 2 of the most powerful women in the world (the 3rd being Desiree Rogers, aka the hand that rocks the cradle) — attended Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World Gala at the Lincoln Center yesterday.

Lmao @ Oprah and Barbara Walters giving each other air kisses!

Time’s most influential women, comedian Whoopi Goldberg, left, Oprah and financial advisor Suze Orman.

rapper M.I.A. introduced herself to Auntie Oprah at the Gala honoring Time’s 100 most influential people last night. I don’t get it. How is M.I.A. influential?

Celebrity stylist (ha ha haaaa) June Ambrose attended the “If You Give A Mom A Martini…” Book Launch at the Plaza hotel in NYC on Monday. June is known around the industry as a WWA — Woman With Attitude.

This has to be every woman’s worst nightmare — seeing industry bicycle Gabrielle Union posing in a photo with their men. The guy, by the way, is Deleon Tequila Founder and CEO Brent Hocking. They bumped into each other last night at the Deleon Tequila launch party at Chateau Marmont’s Bar Marmont in Hollywood.

i would have loved to just be in the room with michelle and oprah .
i love MIA .
nice pics…lol@industry bicycle…
I’m sorry…
The First Lady has proven a theory of mines that I have had for YEARS regarding hairdressers…
Sometimes…you can be with one TOO LONG!!! Because ever since she moved to D.C. and got a new hairdresser to replace ole boy who has been doing her do for almost 30 years….
Her hair has been ON POINT!!! Those edges are straight…its has WONDERFUL SHINE…it’s PERFECT!!!
And TOTALLY agree with you Auntie about M.I.A. (not gonna EVEN get into Ms. Thing’s messed up politics)
I mean, if I was Ms. “O”, I would have been…
“WHO?!?!?!”
Great pics, auntie.
Lord knows I can’t stand her husband, but First Lady Michelle always leaves me in awe. She is beautiful, smart and she is really someone to look up to!
1. Oprah looks nice.
2. Barbara Walters receding hairline really isn’t a myth, is it?
3.Whoopee looks alright and I luvz me some Suze Orman! Her books are excellent!
4. As for the rest of the people in these pics…….ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I am also curious to know how M.I.A is influential.
Don’t recall ever seeing O with her pulled back into a ponytail. Me no likey. Can we get the cute ringlets back please?
That’s all I have for now…
“The hand that rocks the cradle” will be the same hand to give the slap down.
Well I guess this Oprah and Michelle “photo op” will kill the “Michelle doesn’t like Oprah” rumors
Why is MIA there… she is so damn lucky. What a wonderful opportunity to be around so many powerful women. I’m high off the thought alone.
That June woman looks like a dyke.
I never had a problem with Michelle’s hair before moving to DC. It was flawless when she spoke at the DNC and that was BEFORE moving to DC just an ex.
Oprah needs to do something with her head that fuzzy ponytail is not cute. Love Ms O though! I know yall printed yall free KFC coupon..lol
I like June but she looks a mess in that pic clothes to big ugly coat.
Both O & M use phyto hair care products!!!!! My sister is a hair-stylist and model for the phyto brand…
Hey Mizz!
I use to use Phyto products before I went natural.
I do not like Oprahs hair straight and parted down the middle. Makes her look OLD IMO. When they add a lil bit of curl to it at the end that helps but still not my fav look on her.
I’m hearing voices…it’s Ms. Sophia y’all…
“I loves me some Oprah…God knows I do…but I’d kill them edges dead with a hot comb before I let ‘em beat me!”
And Barbara Wa Wa looks like she could use a hard press around her minimal edges with some Dixie Peach too.
Junes too ugly to have an attitude. She looks like Rasputia Lattimore in the face. Gabrielle Union is looking more and more devious. IF it’s true or not, her whorish reputation is going to cost her work, mark my words.
Believe it or not MIA is a political activist, and quite influential, SR.
*ahem* I noticed that Michelle has been wearing some tacky weave part cap. I don’t know what that is about, but it wasn’t looking right last night.
I like MIA but I don’t get why she’s there either unless she came with someone….
Michelle O get’s an A+ for her look! Love the hair! For once it doesn’t look like stiff reporter hair….
Is Gabby prg? I heard that rumor a few wks back and she does look full maybe its just water weight
Good morning everrrybody!!! :)= Daisy
lol@kayciesol
I’m looking at this June stylist lady…I SWORE she was DMX’s wife. Google her and see…she has that same hard look and all. I had to do a double take.
“seeing industry bicycle Gabrielle Union posing in a photo ”
Rollin…. Rollin…. LMAO
Thx Sandra,
After waiting an hour to log in(PC issues)…Im glad I came here first today, I thought it was gonna be a long day!
Good morning all …
Yall said it on the pics.
Daisy Luda - twit pic w/ Gabby out a few weeks ago drinking saying she is not PREGO!
Can someone email me the coupon? I can’t install that coupon printer thing on my laptop @ home or here @ work … firewall gallore.
Thank you in advance.
I did not know who “MIA” was until an awards show when she wore the “sheer” out fit that Barbara is now wearing. LOl. Oprahs left breast looks like it wants to run away.
I love Suze Orman. Gabbie does look pregos.
I can’t forget our First Lady. Michelle looks nice. I am just not into the layerd beads/pearls.
Oprah’s hair is horrible , who dressed her last nite?
what in the h*ll is a phyto ?
MIA … speaks on an injustices overseas - I think she has a fashion line, and she produces, dj’s and sings. She is somewhat of a rebel … I remember some special on MTV that was discussing her. But that’s why she is influential, she uses music to share her experience as a Sri Lankan refugee.
Prolly that big fat funky Andre Leon Talley, Peachizz.
^^^^ROTFLMAO!^^^^
Well maybe its the angle or Gabby just has been eating good which happens to all of us at one point n time..lol
@Read
Rollin… Rollin… He’s a mess(always got a crap on.. Superman…….) SMH
***** Is anyone going to New Orleans for Essence 7-2/3-6 I have some hotel space Courtyard Marriott in Metarie* $89 a nite I see they want $189 now if anyone is interested I will turn reservation over to you, let me know….. u gotta have AAA or someone has to have it(I have two bookings avl)reason im letting the great rate good is because we decided to stay in the french quarter without a car..
I’m leaning HARD on getting Chrisette Michelle new cd (or download it from Amazon if its still 2.99) has anyone heard it? Is it good?
@ice, I didn’t know she had a new cd out,,,, What happen they didnn’t spend no ad $$ on her…
Yeahm the government shuns on influential musicians. Look at Marley, Pac, John Lennon. With the right message, music unites and moves people to get involved… what was that video that Nickelback did, a few years ago? You guys know about the COINTELPRO. They keep their eyes on people like that…
iscream … its great … you can check it out on imeem if you want to listen first
http://www.imeem.com/chrisettemichele/playlist/BLfdvsFn/chrisette-michele-epiphany-music-playlist/
Its good iscream, I posted the link to it on imeem, Sandra has to approve
@read at the tip of my tongue,only thing comes to mind is “rockstar” right now..
@iscream - Yep, Chrisette’s CD is still 2.99 for the MP3 download. Just checked Amazon.
@iscream: I approve Chrisette’s CD as well. Besides, you are only spending $2.99.
Thanks guys I’m going to get it today. I love the single she has out now.
@ Peachiz Sandra has it advertised on this site right now.
I think bc of the Rhianna fiasco def jam has let up on some of the promo money for other artist.
@iscream, Good point! And if that’s the case it’s ’bout dern time! We are missing a lot of good music due to simply not knowing it’s out there (poor promo).
@LICIA
Phyto is hair care product line its real good go to there website for more info..
I have seen promo for chrissy on different blogs plus she was on vh1 so they are spending money on her they just need to book her for the ellen show few others shows as well so she is good she has the tour which im going to too attend!!
@ mizzdallas
thanks . i will check out the website later.
Chrisette has been making rounds. She is not an A list star for the record co. to give her all the bells and whistles (esp. in this economy) of promotion but I knew her cd was coming out this week. I will make a copy of her cd from a co worker..lol Love her new single
@ Daisy most real singers aren’t A List.
Which is why Rhianna was getting so much promo.
A list in the sense you are worthy of such promo and $$ which Rihanna makes that list indeed she does.
Beyonce is NOT an A list singer IMO. She can sing but she is not on my A list. That would be Taisa, J Hud, Jill Patti, MC to name a few on my list.
Oprah should never wear her hair pulled back even with those Rocks falling all around her neck her face still says “YOU TOLE HARPO TO BEAT ME!!”
I was watching (well not really) but my tv was on one of those Bet stations and they had the Gospel comp on a la American Idol. Can’t remember the name of it (big shock) but the two girls that were left were OFF THE HOOK.
They had to sing Yes Jesus loves me… that girl that sung 2nd out of the three. Man she made me take the covers off my head and watch that show. I kept thinking to myself. Why if women with such beautiful voices are out there do we have to be reduced to the likes of these mediocore singers. Is it the consumers fault? Or the record company?
hey Auntie .. isn’t Suze one of your family members ?
