PICS: Atlanta Screening of Tyler Perry’s ‘For Colored Girls’

The Atlanta screening of Tyler Perry’s new movie, ‘For Colored Girls’ took place last night at Atlantic Station.

By the way, did you guys hear political comedian Jon Stewart refer to black people as ‘colored’ during his political rally in Washington DC last week? Expect to hear a lot more of that once this movie hits theaters.

Among the local celebs attending the Atlanta premiere were singer Neyo and his expectant fiancée Monyetta Shaw; singer/songwriter Donnell Jones, ATL socialite Lisa Wu Hartwell, hairstylist Derek J, actresses Jasmine Guy and Terri Vaughn; MLK’s daughter Pastor Bernice King, comedian Rodney Perry, executive producer Roger Bobb

Celebrity bloggers Tami Reed, ATLien and AttorneyMom.

Music producer Devyne Stephens, writer Isoul Harris (below, left) and actress Denise Boutee, among others.

Speaking of singer Neyo and his fiancée Monyetta Shaw: Ne-Yo is throwing her a private baby shower next week. I hear the Glitterati will be invited to the shower, which takes place on the same weekend that the Soul Train Awards will be in town.

Here’s celebrity blogger Tami Reed‘s review of ‘For Colored Girls’:

Janet Jackson plays Joanna, a stoned faced workaholic that has no compassion for others. She’s married to a very handsome guy but she got more than she bargained for with him. Major side eye!

Loretta Devine plays Juanita. She gave the film a breath of fresh air and was funny. She dates Frank and he’s a mess, that keeps coming in and out of her life. It’s hard for her to let him go.

Thandie Newton plays Tangie who got on my last nerves. She uses her body and beauty to lure men and then uses them and disposes of them like garbage. She’s very mean spirited and cares about only her and her needs.

Phylicia Rashad plays Gilda the nosey neighbor and manager of the apartment building where some of the other ladies live. She’s a loving and caring neighbor but can be a bit intrusive at times.

Anika Noni Rose plays Yasmine a beautiful dancer with big dreams. My heart went out to her. She had no idea that the world could be so cruel. She’s the girl that just wants to be a princess and find her prince. Her dreams are shattered for sure after her date from hell! He got what was coming to him!

Whoopi Goldberg plays Alice a very delusional character who’s a religious nut. She’s a hoarder with mental issues as well. She has two daughters that she loves but treats differently.

Hello All. My mother, God rest her soul, preferred the word ‘colored’ rather than Negro, black, and certainly not African-American, a term I never use. It’s certainly better than ni@@er or nigga! She said that ‘colored’ encompassed all people of color except white folks. Made sense to me. Peace.

I have no interest in seeing this movie. Attorneymom doing big thangs

Neyo ain’t gay. He got a baby on the way. Ain’t that all that you need to prove that you’re a real man these days?
ySoSerious

@ PSP

An “arrangement” can quickly turn into a “situation” if everybody ain’t on the same page, as it were.

As for cutting a fool on Twitter anything can happen on that devil’s playground at anytime.

http://charactercorner.blogspot.com attorneymom

Shout out to ATLien0 for inviting me as her guest.

ATLien had us sitting in the vicinity of former Mayor Shirley Franklin, cast of Meet the Browns and House of Payne, Lisa Hartwell and sons, Jasmin Guy, Tyler Perry’s business partners (the white folks with money and power), Terry Vaughn, my Soror News Anchor Jacquette Williams and V-103 Rashan Ali .

ATLien is such a nice and beautiful person. I had a really nice time.

Hopefully, I get to hang out with Sandra one day.

skee wee AM !!!!!

seriously how was the movie????
http://charactercorner.blogspot.com attorneymom

Soror @Lexdiamonz The movie was good but it was poetically painful. But the Sorors were in the house: Soror Jacquette Williams and Soror Rashan Ali.

Someone described the movie as a cross between Beloved and The Color Purple. If you are depressed, I would not go see the movie. If you are mentally stable, then you should go see the movie.

Monyetta Shaw looks beautiful pregnant.
