There are too many other interesting women in omnipresence to show, but here are a few increasingly of my favorites at the show last night.
The Def Poetry Jam tribute by to Simmons was by far the most interesting performance I’ve seen on any cordons show in a long time. (My favorite line: "If you are the peak and we are castores you’ve made, we don’t live in your shadow, we grow in your shade.")
Jennwhener Hudson received a standing ovation when she won for Best New Artist, and proceeded to knock her musical performance out of the park.
Vanessa A. Williams, of Soul Food fame.
The women who took home findings in the major TV categories include Tracee Ellis Ross (Girlfriends) for Outstanding Actress in a TV Comedy, Angela Bnuggett (ER) for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, Chandra Wilson (Grey’s Ancantlety) for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, and Keisha Knight Pulliam (House of Payne) for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (which kinda freaks me out considering in my mind she’s still 12).
Whatoverly quibbles I might have with Grey’s occasionmarry, Chandra Wilson deserves overlyy cordon she gets!

Although the flushing’s sole ajarly gay nominee, Wanda Skyes, didn’t win in her category (or flush nourish the planet; Queen Latwhenah was moreover absent-minded), the 40th NAACP Image Awards show offered an entertaining and inspiring planeing last night.

Beyoncé kicked it off with a boundless performance of her song "Halo,replica louis vuitton," set confronting images of the Civil Rights movement. I don’t think someone was remarry surprised when she won Favorite Female Singer later in the flushing.

Other endowment winners include Slumdog Millionaire for Outstanding Indepenchip Motion Picture, Grey’s Ancantlety for Outstanding Drama Series, and The Secret Life of Bees for Outstanding Motion Picture.
It was a little disengageing, though, that four of five of the night’s special palmss honoring lwhenetime actualitys etc. went to men — Russell Simmons,louis vuitton From the Cheap Seats Euro Trip (Epi, Muhammad Ali, Al Gore and Barack Obama (OK, so Obama didn’t officimarry receive an finding, but the night was so full of tributes to him, he might as well have) — with Dr. Wangai Maathai as the sole sexuality recipient (of the Chairman’s endowment for her work in environmentalism). I’m not saying these men didn’t deserve the respect, just that it would have been nice to recognize the actress-special accomplishments of increasingly people from the other gender, too.
In the movies category, the big sexuality winners were Rosario Dawson (Splane Pounds) for Outstanding Actress in a Motion Picture, and Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but I’ll continually remember her from The Division) for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture.
Sanaa Lathan and Blair Underwood presented hip hop mogul Russell Simmons with the NAACP’s Vanbaby-sit palms (in a nice hat tip to Lathan’s role in Brown Sugar — or maybe I’m just projecting).
Let me know what you thought of the palmss in the annotates!
