Actor Omar Epps and his wife Keisha are a true success story. Their marriage has withstood the test of time (and groupies)
Rapper-turned-actress MC Lyte and Queen Latifah go way back. Lyte looks nice but she doesn’t need to lose another pound.
MORE pics after the break!
The caption under this picture reads “Shante Broadus and son.” Now I know Shante is the mother of Snoop Dogg’s 3 children. But which son is this?

Does composite photo = photoshop in sandra rose’s funworld? I can’t tell.
1. Darn you and that photoshop! Before I read the caption I was actually cheering the fact that La was being seen on the red carpet with her lady. I’m losing respect for her more and more with each day she stays in the closet.
2. LisaRaye, Kim and Kim, no comment man. I take that back. LisaRaye’s ensemble is really nice.
3. Ah! The camera caught Viv at just the right angle again. She looks human. Nice pic.
4. I love Keisha’s bare eyes in that pic. Are you referring to Sanaa as a groupie? She’s the only one that I know of who was able to fracture the relationship.
5. I know I am a thick girl, but Lyte is so short and small that I took a picture with her after getting her to autograph the book of poetry she wrote and upon seeing it IMMEDIATELY deleted it. She had me looking like a damn WWF Wrestler next to her miniature behind. I’m only 5’5, but I looked like a 6 footer standing next to her little azz. She’s hella small. On a totally unrelated note. I saw Eva the Diva at the same event and she is ridiculously thin, but much taller than I expected and even more beautiful in person.
6. I didn’t even know that was Shantay. She looks differant. I can’t remember big boy’s name, but he supposedly lives with Snoop and his family. I don’t know what his relationship is to them, but he looks like he could be related in some way.
7. Love love love Lalah Hathaway!
8. I like David Banner’s style. I don’t know if he is a rough neck, but he rarely looks like one.
9. Hev done dropped a few pounds. What is he doing with himself these days?
10. Tracy’s been dating his butt off since his wife left. I ain’t mad at em.
11. Judge Mathis knows he loves his pimp attire. I bet he has a few pieces from Steve Harvey’s line.
Sorry about the book, but you know I got a lot of time on my hands.
the big boy lives with snoop them he is on the show but he not her biological child i dont think its snoops either but they took him in could be a family members
imma need for keisha epps to lose that dayum lipstick. in fact imma need for a vast majority of sistas to just get rid of it. it is RARE that we can pull it off. i HAVE seen it…but it is rare. like a hard snow in late april.
and on the same wave…and i am gonna need for kim jones to lose the pank lipstick as well. just take it outcho makeup bags and lets pretend it never was there.
as for errybody else…ummm…yeah.
only person i am truly happy to see is my girl lana (lyte). still loving her.
oh and happy burff day to kang latifah.
Morning Fam
How do I update my profile on sandrarose? I am trying to load my gravatar but the name Daisy is already being used so I need to update my username. Please help!
daisy i have no IDEA. i had up a pic and made my name a link to my myspace page many moons ago. took them off and for the LIFE of me cannot figga out how to make it work again. i see folks posting instructions time and time again and even if i follow them to a “T” STILL cannot get it to work.
@Kwall I have it working under my yahoo acct on other sites but what messed me up with this one is Daisy was already being used so I had to add #s and of course I can’t change my username on here w/o Sandra.
Oh nevermind its WORKING!!!!! Look at my Maxy..lol
i don’t have anything to say about anybody….i think everyone looks decent. looks like she had a nice party.
Lisa Ray that purse looks a little easterish boo; cute dress though. LOL
all the female MCs are aging very well….no one looks much older than they were when they first hit the scene. Vivica looks nice, but somethings off??
I love these pics.
Let me start off with my Favorite judge Greg Mathis. He & his wife look to have a strong union. Love the fact she is an average beautiful black woman. (Mizz D did you ever hear when he cursed Wendy out, so funny)
I am a big Heavy D fan & it seems thru out the music industry he is well respected and is always spoken of as a nice man.
Tracy Morgan I’m so happy you gained some weight back. You look so much better.
Lalah Hathaway I still listen to your 1st Cd girl.
To the female rappers. I miss yall and there is no female out right now doing the damn thing. All that’s missing is Monie Luv.
Lil Kim, Lisa & Kim? Together? I wonder why.
WoW the Queen has lost soooo much weight and is looking great. Nice!
That boy isn’t Shante’s son. He is a family friend’s son who watches the kids while Snoop is on the road or when Shante’s is not around.
Lil Kim actually managed to make Kim Kardashian look tall…and Kimis only 5’2! But Sandra needs to post some Lil Kim throughout the years pics because I wanna know at what point did she become the same complexion as Lisa Raye. Biggie really messed with her head with his love for Bright whites huh.
I love that outfit Dana Elaine has on .. Big Ups to Jersey !
MC Lyte looks really good but I do agree with you Sandra no weight lossie for u Lyte.
Little Kim smh.
Yo Yo looks really cute too.
It looks like she had a great party really good guest list.
OH that’s what I was gonna say. The guy in the picture with Shante is referred to as an “adopted” son. But on The Fatherhood they’ve had his real mother on the show. So I think like shhh said he’s a family friend.
Mmm, mmm mmmmmmmmmmmm David Banner is so maphuckin sexy. I bet he will tear some cootie cat UP!!!!!(fanning myself.
Everyone looks nice except for Tracy Morgan, Judge Mathis’s wife with her too tight dress serving up way too much boobage, and of course Lil Kim will awkward the rest of ther life.
Shante looking a lil regular too. I’m sure someone has said who the big dude with her is. Her play son
