Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson - The Dreamgirls Of The NAACP Image Awards

wenn-beyonc.jpg

It was a particularly inspired night at the NAACP Image Awards on Thursday night.

In addition to receiving awards for best female artist and best new artist, respectively, Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson both gave stirring performances, with B singing Halo and JHud The Impossible Dream.

will.i.am and Seal also performed at the Halle Barry and Tyler Perry-hosted event, which honors achievements and performances of people of color in TV, film, music, and literature.

The Secret Life of Bees won for motion picture and Grey's Anatomy won for TV drama, along with one of the show's stars, Chandra Wilson, who picked up best actress in a drama series. Columbus Short of Cadillac Records won supporting actor in a motion picture and singer-actor Jamie Foxx for male artist.

Sean "Diddy" Combs picked up the TV movie actor trophy for A Raisin in the Sun, along with Hill Harper for CSI: NY, Tracee Ellis Ross for Girlfriends, Taraji P. Henson for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and Will Smith and Rosario Dawson for Seven Pounds.

Kenyan activist Wangari Maathai received the Chairman's Award, while boxing legend Ali won the President's Award, and hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons won the Vanguard Award for his achievements in charity.

But while there was additional excitement for President Obama, there was also additional sadness over the absence of Rihanna and Chris Brown, who had both received nominations in different categories.

      Beyonce likes the glory. She loves to act like she's queen bee, better than everyone else and loves to give advice to all the young ladies - role model etc, but she was never there for RIHANNA! becuase of jealousy over Jay-Z! Some role model! And she was never there for J-HUD either (jealousy again!)

      interesting, but certainly not on the level of the

      BALSAC AWARDS -

      given semi-bi-tri-annually by that noted philanthropist and all around swell guy HARRY BALSAC…

      The awards, commonly known as "The Harry" is distributed to those in the Perez Blog Commenters section for their keen and sometimes sanguine remarks on such topics as

      Perez likes it in the Pooper
      Perez humps boys
      Perez likes the "money shot" facial
      and of course - Perez and Brit Brit make me Lady GagGag

      Previous winners include

      Alice - you know Alice, she has STUNNING FUCKING HAIR
      LettyB - ’cause she WILL CHOKE A BITCH if she has too…
      Long Dong Connery - the name says it all…
      Major Dude - Alice's gimp and drug supplier to Amy Winemouth

      So, sit back and enjoy and taste the essence of "The Harry"

      I WANT TO HEAR WHAT BEYONCE HAS TO SAY ABOUT RIHANNA AND CHRIS BROWN….IS SHE JEALOUS HER HUSBAND IS GOING CRAZY PROTECTIVE OVER ANOTHER WOMAN



    14. 14

      If white people held an event for just white people, there would be so much fucking uproar. STOP seperating people & having fucking different awards shows. Join! Unity!

      YOU SUCK PEREZ! CALL PARIS!

      Was it Paris Hilton who placed the mysterious text message or cell call to Chris Brown on Saturday night?

      Sources say now that Paris met Brown on late Friday night in Hollywood at a party for hip hop producer Timbaland. Paris with sister Nicky Hilton. Brown accompanied girlfriend Rihanna, who performed at the party with the guest of honor.

      Photographers at nightclub Boulevard 3 captured Paris chatting with Brown at least twice. In one photo, Paris is seen holding a cell phone or Blackberry (they were the co-sponsor). If she was getting his digits at that moment, it would explain a lot.

      The other picture shows Paris with her right arm around Brown’s neck, and the two are terribly cozy. Hilton comes with a tantalizing set of emotional baggage and a reputation for being frisky. In the picture, Brown looks mesmerized with Paris.

      Re: JayeBoy – GOOD ONE!



    38. 38

      What's sad is that Rihanna had her face so busted up she couldn't even be seen in public. She might have damaged her larynx by being choked until she passed out, so maybe she can't use her voice right now. Make no mistake. She is resting and trying to heal physically, because that guy was out to destroy her. No. Joke. It is sad. But maybe it is a wake up call. He could have killed her. That is exactly where this was headed. He is out of control, and his family probably gets money from him, so of course they aren't going to say a word. Who would expect his sister to speak against him anyway. He went to Vegas afterwards,…he's got an O.J. mentality.

      Re: JiLLianKyLeRe: LettyB – …Well I am so far from racist…and if you can honestly justify the Planet of the Apes of the comment you are too. And to Letty B…I will gladly use my "ebonics"…but for your information I am a freshman in college and I have a 3.5! And if our ebonics is so bad…why do you guys continue to talk like us and copy our style of dress…?



    51. 51

      I think it's racist to have an all black award show. If white people did that and there was an all white award show, you black people would be up in riot.



    52. 52

      Re: ShenaBabes – I agree with you 100%



    53. 53

      Hey can someone tell me why Beyonce seems to shed tears in all her performances now? What's that about???



    54. 54

      Wow it's a race war in here today ! Have any of you actually watched the NAACP awards ever??? If you watched them then you would know they actually give awards to many "ethnicities". Al Gore was honored for all his environmental work this year !!!

      I'm with ShenaBabes and Shaker Maker on this one. I'm the least prejudiced person I know but I do agree if there was an all-white anything, all hell would break loose. No one should be upset by that comment. It's just the truth…and if you don't believe it, you're delusional…



    56. 56

      Copy pasting… no surpise there… lol
      What I really wanna know is what B has to say about this whole Chris - Rihanna situation… she hates Riri so I bet she must be glad!
