    She looks very beautiful and elegant. One of the classiest women ever, she’s never had to reveal her body to sell music.

  8. KenKenN DC April 20, 2010

    Lauryn Hill where are youuuuuuuuuu! No artist in the last decade has come close to the quality music that was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill *sighs*

  9. YouPutTheLimeInTheCoconut April 20, 2010

    She looks so different without the dreads! Very classy and mature though, I like it.

    God, is she ever going to release another album again? When I look at Lauryn (who is the epitome of REAL hip hop, male OR female driven), and then I look at these wack s*** ass ho b****** like Trina and Nicki Minaj, it breaks my heart.

  10. LovinMyBreezy April 20, 2010

    O-M-G! She looks gorgeous! Lauryn please come back and make another classic album. Please save music…PLEASE!

  11. Renae April 20, 2010

    Lauryn Hill looks like she’s lost weight. Wish she would come out of this craziness she’s been in for what seems like years. Its sad how a man can come into some females lives and bring them all the way down while he works around better than ever.

  12. Renae April 20, 2010

    I mean walks around better than ever

  13. ADE April 20, 2010

    she looks great from the waist up! I need her to hurry up and make another album! PLEASE LAURYN!!! thanks 😀

  14. MADONNA April 20, 2010

    Let’s have a FUGEES Reunion!!!! (aka, the original Black Eyed Peas)…

  15. QUE April 20, 2010

    She looks so thin. I miss her music.

  16. DizzyGuy1985 April 20, 2010

    Killing me softly Lauren…please come back! To hell with that Fergie Ferg!

  17. I SHALL SAY THIS ONLY ONCE April 20, 2010

    yeah she looks great, please come back and show these fools running around screaming like an alleycat (wearing weaves like europeas with fake nails done by koreans)

  21. X,Y,”and Z” April 20, 2010

    True ROYALTY; a True Talent! …She’s “DONE with Hollywood”, she’ll lend-her-name ONLY to worthwhile causes, which this OBVIOUSLY is!

    GOD BLESS YOU, Lauren Hill!

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT!

  22. Aunt Jackie April 20, 2010

    ^^ Tell your queen we can smell the bacon grease dripping off her fat ass from a mile away. Have you seen her lately, the b**** needs to take notes from J Hud and hit up JC – as in Jenny Craig. And while you’re at it, look into a Special ED class for yourself, you retarded c***.

    Lauryn’s outfit is making her look real old and grannyish here, I don’t like it. But her face looks nice as usual and I’m feeling the new hair. It’s just the outfit that isn’t doing it for me.

  26. CHERIE April 20, 2010

    @BEYDABESS (DA REAL ONE)

    IT’S GOOD TO SEE A TRUE BEYONCE STAN DOING WHAT THEY DO BEST: ACTING BAT S*** CRAZY & IGNORANT, SOUNDING DOWNRIGHT ILLITERATE

    BRAVO 🙂 *SIPS TEA*

    good to see her out and about

  29. JESS April 20, 2010

    Lauryn Hill is more than likely done with the music industry & I don’t blame her. There’s a dark side to the biz that chews artists up & spits them out, especially the black ones (Whitney, MJ, D’angelo, etc.) Lauryn was on top with Miseducation & then the rumors started (Lauryn Hill hates white people, is crazy, etc.) MJ was on top in the 80s & bought the Beatles catalog. Then the rumors started (he’s a weirdo, freak, gay, etc.) D’angelo went mainstream with the Voodoo album and started losing his damn mind too. The industry is poison. I’m glad Lauryn got the hell out before things got worse. I really do miss her music but motherhood was more important to her. Props to her for choosing the simple life.

  30. G.U.S April 20, 2010

    She is a grandmother????? Horrible deception

  31. nikarta April 20, 2010

    Please come back and save us from them lot…you know who you are…lol!!

  32. Stoney-Brie April 20, 2010

    hhahaahah LMAO @ beydabess

  33. Its Me Again April 20, 2010

    She’s beautiful, and I respect her as an artists immensely. I wish she would come back and bless the current excuse for a music industry in much the same way Sade did.

    On a side note, I’m slightly disappointed she isn’t rocking natural hair/dreads anymore. I liked that vibe about her.

  34. Its Me Again April 20, 2010

    as an artist*

  35. Ghetto Fab April 20, 2010

    She looks georgous! She was always a classic black beauty. She never dumbed down or “whitened” up like all these other black celebs walking around with ridiculous hair weaves like europeans and fake nails done by koreans lol.

    If she decides to come back in the game yall favorite singers/rappers better watch out. She can very easily wipe up the floor with any artist out. And that goes for the singers and the rappers. Male or Female. This woman’s talent is unbelievable. She only ever put out ONE ALBUM and we are still talking about this woman. She is a legend and whether she comes back with another album or not will not change the fact that she was one of the most talented singers/lyricists of all time!

  36. Ghetto Fab April 20, 2010

    @ ITS ME AGAIN

    There is a reason why she doesn’t rock that hairstyle before. Which also ties into the reason why she has been away for so long. She’s been hurt alot and went through alot with her personal life. I’m sure you can read about it online. I’m just glad she’s back out and about and smiling. She looks happy.

  37. Last Boy on Earth April 20, 2010

    @jess
    why black people always have to act like the victims all the time? do you really think the industry only treats bad black people? just look at Kurt Cobain, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and many more

  38. JN April 20, 2010

    She’s beautiful.

  40. PLAIN AND SIMPLE April 20, 2010

    I lov u Laurln u were the best. Much as I want u to come back and show the people that u still got it going on, but the music industry is poison. One person I will always remember is Left Eye of TLC whatever they expected from her she could not take it anymore. She started drinking and what ever else. Then she burn her boyfriend’s house down out of jealousy. So if u r away from the industry stay away keep your soul

  41. Dilla April 20, 2010

    Lauryn looks beautiful!

  42. noah April 20, 2010

  43. Ben April 20, 2010

    Well, what a surprise…………

  44. ~TeAM WeeZY~ April 20, 2010

    She looks absolutely AMAZING! She looks like she’s doing extremely well without the foolishness that is the “music industry” She epitomizes quality music like no other artist past or present (aside from a few artists back in the day)

    I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS LADY!!!

    CCCOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEE BBBBBAAACCCCCCCKKKKKKK PPPPLLLLLEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! I BEG OF YOU!!!!!!!!

  45. Fritzma April 20, 2010

  46. KD April 21, 2010

    lol @ BEYDABESS(DA REAL ONE), I live for your comments.

    You should seriously consider starting your own blog, assuming you do not have one.

  47. Diane April 21, 2010

    Lauryn Hill is a beautiful black woman. Her outfit is lovely. Come on back Lauryn, we miss you.

  48. rachel matovu April 24, 2010

    I love lauryn hill. I am hoping and praying she returns to the music/hip hop game….the music industry is not the same without the one and only lauryn hill.

    I am from Vancouver BC, and I will travel to the states if I hear she is performing….that is how loyal I am.
