Gabourey Sidibe’s Mom Impresses On ‘America’s Got Talent’

Move over Susan Boyle! Actress Gabourey Sidibe isn’t the only talented member of her family. Her mother, Alice Tan Ridley, who has spent the past 20 years singing in the NYC subway system, brought the house down with her rousing rendition of the classic “At Last”. How embarrassing that a 58-year-old woman showed up Beyonce again?

    I am unable to view the video but good for her. I love how you can’t resist to mention Bey a day on this blog. We know of the undying LOVE you have for her. How does the show work? Does she get a prize or something?

    It would be a judgment out of “spite.” The ugly people being discussed should feel pleased they are even mentioned because they should know to remain bland and stick to the background. So as not to offend and insult the rest of us. This wouldn’t happen if they knew their role. **Alice Tan Ridley**
