Gracing the stage with Hill were Beyonce, Jay-Z, a heavily pregnant Alicia Keys, Swizz Beats, John Legend, and Chris Rock!

  18. Chulo August 29, 2010

    Im like crying

  19. Chulo August 29, 2010

    This is a Lauren Posting, Beyonce haterz go to bed

  20. Danni August 29, 2010

    I love Lauryn but I cant be the only one who thought she looked a bit crazy lol

  21. TheBaddestBitch August 29, 2010

    They don’t hate Beyoncé, they think she’s whack. It’s different.

    Anyway, it was a beautiful moment to see Lauryn with such legends (except one) lol

  22. TheBaddestBitch August 29, 2010

    And @ Danni : she’s crazy but she’s a genius so we forgive her lol

  23. TEE August 29, 2010

    I love Beyonce to death, but what does she have on? Anyway, people will continue to hate on Beyonce for no reason, that is nothing new, she didn’t get pregnant by a married man, and she wasn’t on drugs, she is a very positive person, but she will be hated on. Is it because she is super rich and was named second most powerful on Forbes list? Quit hating on this girl and try being successful like her. GOD.

  24. Diane August 29, 2010

    Is Beyonce from New York?

  25. KNUCK August 29, 2010

    now u know beyonce is from Houston, Texas..

  26. Blasian August 29, 2010

    Aww that’s so Nice!

    To the HATERS Beyonce is Bigger and has made a more impact than any artist that HIT the Stage you can act dumb all you want but we ALL know the TRUTH

  27. Damo August 29, 2010

    Lauren Hill looked and sounded a but schizophrenic despite all the icons comming in stage (including Beyonce)

  28. Chimier August 29, 2010

    LOL how intimidating it must have been to be in the presence of someone who has far more talent than they did. Lauryn slays! Come back, L-Boogie!

  29. KO August 29, 2010

    Beyonce hate has gone to the next level

  30. Kyle August 29, 2010

    I love how you left Mary J. Blige out of the description. haha. Anyway, AWESOME MOMENT! Mary, Queen Bee, Lauryn, and Alicia on the same stage? Sweetness.

  31. BENJAMIN August 29, 2010

    Doesn’t really matter, they didn’t sing, so it didn’t help the performance. I know I may be the wack one on this post, but I’m going to bed on Miss Hill, I’ve given up with her. Tired of getting my hopes up.

  32. Dawon August 29, 2010

    LMAO@ THE BEYONCE HATERS!!!! LOL YA’LL PROBABLY RIHANNA FANS, LAURYN WOULD NEVER EVEN MENTION RIYODEL!!!! LOL

    BEY, ALICIA, MARY J AND LAURYN ALL ON ONE STAGE!!! THE QUEENS OF MUSIC!!!

  33. anonymous August 29, 2010

  34. LuvMeDJ August 29, 2010

    She was gettin on my nerves with that “Com’on Com”on” Mess…and YES she did look heavily sedated…she jus doesn’t seem the same to me…very weirdo-ish

  35. Nicki Minaj Who? August 29, 2010

    OMG Lauryn Hill Called Beyonce A Legend……….lol………..Haters Stay Mad

  36. Damo August 29, 2010

    Lauryn Hill was a mess, come on come on !! and most of the other artists did’nt want to come out on stage.
    Anyway Lauryn Hill needs to come with some new s*** and polish her performances and not run around stage like demented kangeroo.

    Come on ! Come on !! Come oon come on

  37. Jazybelle August 29, 2010

    I just dont know about this ,I looooooove Lboogie but I need a lil bit more.
    Bee and Alica Looked Cute but I cant stand This Cocky Negro Jay-z

  38. TEE August 29, 2010

    @BLASIAN: You speak nothing but the truth. They constantly hating on Beyonce for no reason. This girl is very successful, can rip a stage, tour reviews are always excellent, talented, etc, and like one 60 minutes host said and I quote ” unlike other one named popstars she doesn’t need tabloid hype to be successful”. Whether you people want to accept it this girl is an amazing performer, that’s why legends are always praising her.

    I don’t like what she had on though, but it’s Beyonce, and if she likes it that’s her business.

  39. truthis August 29, 2010

    Love Lauryn Hill…..Please go in the studio and make another masterpiece!!!!!

  40. LD23 August 29, 2010

    What an incredible momment in music history! Can u imagine all the collabos that we have missed out on because L. Boogie hasnt been around?!! AARRRGGG!!! But its also very uplifting to see sucessful black friends hanging out. All the people she brought onstage are true friends in the industry and its great to see all that power united…even with all those “critics” “fans” “bloggers” and “stans” trying to tear it down. True life haters

  41. DION-ISH August 29, 2010

    @DAWON

    WHY do you BEE STANS seem to always mention Rihanna in some way possible?!? Damn your like obsessed with her or some s***!

    ——–

    On to the topic of the post, She seemed genially happy they were there, That was really nice….

  42. quanberg August 29, 2010

    So i like me some Beyonce and have seen her in concert but why did her name to be first (SHADY), hmmmmmm. the title could have simply stated Lauryn Hill brought on stage a host of other Artist !!! and why did her name have to be first !!!! blahhhh

  43. GangsterA August 29, 2010

  44. Celeb Psych August 29, 2010

  49. OH SHUT UP August 29, 2010

    @TEE
    @BLASIAN

    Beyonce stans just make haters HATE her even more. Stop defending this woman like she pays you. Once a song-stealing, thieving, wig-wearing fraud, always a song-stealing, thieving, wig-wearing fraud. Your beloved Bey hopped onto that cracked out Lady Gaga train & for what??? She wanted the extra publicity, that’s a tabloid move if we’ve ever seen it.

    Anyways, Lauryn may be crazy but she can outsing and rap most of those “icons” under the table

    @DAMO

    icons on the stage?? what icons?? icons in your head perhaps.

  50. TEE August 29, 2010

    Keep doing you Beyonce. Haters will continue to hate.

  53. Misty August 29, 2010

    Sam, how you gon forget Mary J Blige? She came out first!
    OMG And I loveee me some Queen Bey buttt….NO!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!
    That skirt is tooooo snug for her recruited shape. And the hat??? Beyyyyy pleasee get a stylist and x Tina! In Lauryn’s word…”Wheres Jay? Where’s Jay” indeed!
    I mean even Alicia embraced her newfound curve and wore something that was loose and worked for her. Bey always gotta squeeze herself into something
    And like a true king, Jay had to come out last after his crew lol! Made his entrance
    yassssss L Boogie!!!! Looked fun Im glad she’s back. Hope the vocals are all there and it wont be a Whitney thing when faced televised or live…Welcome Back!!!

  54. mmm August 29, 2010

    Oh look, John Legend and Chris Rock. Two of the biggest MJ haters in the industry (eye roll)

  55. SARAH August 29, 2010

    IF BEYONCE LOOKED ROUGH THEN I NEED TO SEE WHAT YALL LOOK LIKE!!!

  56. SARAH August 29, 2010

    WHAT I DON’T GET IS ALL BEYONCE DID IS WALK OUT AND WAVE JUST LIKE THE REST OF THEM AND YET SHE’S GETTING ALL OF THIS. LIKE SERIOUSLY WHAT DID SHE DO WRONG?

    IM CONVINCED THAT THE HATERS MOMS DIDNT HUG THEM ENOUGH AS A CHILD.

  57. WHY?? August 29, 2010

    @legends who??
    True all of them were not legends but Jay-Z and Lauryn Hill are considered hip-hop legends and Mary J. Blige is definitely a legend. Please don’t do it. Beyonce will be soon. I mean she bores me but she will soon be honored for her amazing career. She’s like the Diana Ross of this time.

  58. rob August 29, 2010

    beysus looked low key and cayute

  59. Cameron August 29, 2010

    Bey. looked so shy…..*little dance, blew kisses & Got the hell off stage*…lol…love ALL of them

  60. stan August 29, 2010

    Lauryn Hill haven’t preformed this consistently in years. Ms Hill felt the love and respect from all those artist she brought on stage with her. She feeling the love, and support and making a slow draw back to the game. I’m glad people like Jay-z, Beyonce, Alica Keys, and Mary love her, Whitney houston, Missy E the list goes on… I think she forgot “who” she is… And I can’t wait for her to come back. The industry really needs you Ms Hll!!! come back !

  61. BeyonceFan :) August 29, 2010

    Its soo funny how this post is suppose to about Ms.Hill but everyone is trying to down beyonce i dont understand why? she is one of the black ppl in the world thats is doing something really positive opening doors for girls like me that really sad why cant yall just be happy for the woman ! & she is only 28 she will have baby’s whenever the fuqk she wants stay the hell out of her business !

  62. jamie August 29, 2010

    Welcome back Ms. Hill. I see Alicia was eye-ballin’ that keyboard. I’m glad she didn’t climb up on it.LOL!!!!!!!

  63. jonbery August 29, 2010

    It is never a good look to share a stage with joe camel or that boot-licking c*** Chris Rock!…ewwww

  64. Quiana August 29, 2010

    I am happy that they gave her some love because it wasn’t always that people in the industry gave her love or help here and these are the same people that called her crazy because she wouldn’t bow down to the industry. I can’t help to wonder what was the real reason to show up for some people that don’t know her like that mmmm. I do hope for another album for ms Lauren, but the industry would have to know that she’s not going to bow down to them.

  65. Phoenyxx August 29, 2010

    Lauryn Hill is the truth.
    Point blank.
    Period.
    End of story.

  66. Andrew August 29, 2010

    Mary J Who?…Alicia Who?….It’s BEYONCE baby 🙂

  67. mmm August 29, 2010

    @WHY??

    Mary J. Blige is very talented and accomplished but NOT a legend IMO. Sorry

  68. mmm August 29, 2010

    @JONBERRY

    Yes, Chris Rock is a c***. A funny c***, but a c*** nevertheless. As for Jay Z, he is too overexposed just like his wife.

  69. Blasian August 29, 2010

    OH SHUT UP

    MS.HILL WAS SUED FOR STEALING SONGWRITING CREDITS

    Superstar Lauryn Hill recently settled a lawsuit over credit on her smash album, The Miseducation Hill, for an undisclosed amount, according to a for Sony Music Entertainment.

    Four musicians, Vada Nobles, Rasheem Pugh, Tejumold and Johari Newton, claimed Hill promised to credit them for their work, but reneged and listed herself as the solo producer.

    They were given credit for drum programming and a small amount of lyrical, instrumental and production work.

    Hill’s representatives had portrayed the lawsuit as an attempt to cash in on her enormous success.

Her performance was Genius! Yes she changed some of the melodies in the music but artist do that s*** all the time!!!!!

    Beyonce Gets Sued Over Stolen Underwear Design
    2.17.2010

    It’s tough being Beyonce…

    Beyonce is tangling going to court over underwear. Underwear manufacturer Triumph is accusing Sony of copyright infringement, stating that “Beyoncé was wearing copyright infringing underwear in her music video “Video Phone”.” The design in question is from Bulgarian designer Iskren Lozanov, but Sony says that Picaso inspired the design of the underwear and that any similarities are coincidence. A judge has stated that Sony copied the design, but they will likely appeal the decision.
    ________________
    Beyonce Accused of Stealing Designs for House of Dereon
    Icelandic brand E-Label has accused Beyoncé’s House of Dereon of stealing one of their designs:

    The item in question? A pair of studded leggings that the brand says look way too similar to their Heavy Metal Leggings:

    E-label owner Heba Hallgrimsdottir said, “This is naturally huge and I am still half in shock. I didn’t [recognize] straight away that this was her own label: I just thought she was wearing our leggings. It is practically just copy/paste…I have only just heard about this and no decision has yet been taken. We need to inspect her brand’s trousers closer because, according to law, it is not copied if a certain number of things have been changed from the original design.”

    @BLASIAN

    YOU’RE RIGHT!!!

    Beyonce Doesn’t Steal Her Lousy Songs – Official
    by Stuart Heritage on October 3, 2006

    Sometimes we think that Beyonce is the most talented woman in history, what with all her songs that sound the same and that dance she does that looks like she’s running away from a monster through a room littered with mousetraps.

    And sometimes we think that Beyonce is so flaming talented that we secretly wonder if all her ideas are her own. And we’re not the only ones – Beyonce was taken to court recently by a female songwriter who claimed that Beyonce had stolen the lyrics to the song Baby Boy from one of her old songs. However, a judge has thrown the case out on its ear, comprehensively proving that the one idea Beyonce has ever had is all her own.

    Maybe we’re being a bit too harsh on Beyonce – she’s had way more than one original thought in her life. For example, the idea to get thin by only eating syrup? That was all Beyonce. The idea to name her new album after the instrument that Frenchmen use to wash their genitalia and a*** with? All Beyonce too. The idea to boo Beyonce furiously every time her name was mentioned at the MOBO awards? OK, that one wasn’t Beyonce’s idea, but you get the idea.

    So when songwriter Jennifer Armour sued Beyonce last year, claiming that Beyonce had stolen the lyrics of Got A Little Bit Of Love For You for her quite good but not as good as Crazy In Love hit Baby Boy, the judge only had one option – to chuck the case out of court, as MSNBC reports:

    Armour said her former manager submitted demo recordings of her song to various studios including Columbia Records and Atlantic Recording Corporations, record labels for Knowles and Sean Paul, who is featured in the song. However, the court did a side-by-side comparison of the two songs to look for substantial similarity – a key component of copyright infringement – and found they were “substantially dissimilar.”

    Luckily, after the court proved that Baby Boy was all hers, Beyonce was at hand with one of her legendarily witty and charismatic statements:

    “It’s unfortunate that lawsuits such as this one occur, but I am grateful and relieved to have this behind me and I am eager to move on.”

    Beyonce can take ALL the credit for her throwaway music. LOL

  86. jonbery August 29, 2010

    @MMM

    I have never found Chris Rock in the least be funny and dido on that last point, although I like Bey. The fixed media has just used her and overexposed her to the point that ppl who actually like her are tired of hearing and seeing her!

  87. Nat August 29, 2010

    I feel as if Lauryn has already been contaminated by those people on stage. Gosh I love each of them individually but none, I mean none are on her level… maybe alicia, but not the others.. sorry Beyonce… Lauryn’s Album is timeless. I still play. Zion, Lost One, and I used to love him are my favorites.

  88. yassssssssss August 29, 2010

    What does that have to do with Lauryn bring her out on stage? Are you mental? None of the other artist & people that came on stage are thought provoking, so I guess that makes them even and ALL on the same level. Nor is R&B music is any more “thought provoking” than POP music. Further more Beyonce sings a variety of music and not “just POP”. Stop the hate for goodness sakes! Beyonce is on the SAME level if not above those people. Take ya ‘haterfolds’ off and you’ll be able to see.

None of the other artist & people that came on stage are “thought provoking”, so I guess that makes them even and ALL on the same level. Nor is R&B music is any more “thought provoking” than POP music. Further more Beyonce sings a variety of music and not “just POP”. Stop the hate for goodness sakes! Take ya ‘haterfolds’ off so you can see better.

    BLASIAN , sit down , Don’t try to get me with your numbers and statistics THAT DON’T WORK !! And i totally don’t care ! What i’m saying is that first of all she didn’t have a real hit here since her first album , her name is popular SHE’S popular , but there is NO place in the world that people are just praising her like she’s the Queen of something or she found a cure for cancer ! She is a AWESOME GREAT artist , cool. But CALM DOWN !!!! Who cares about you all saying that she’s the best of something…. GUESS WHO CARES …? YOU ! Not HER !!
    To me the only Queen is Mary, she has nothing to prove anymore , and she paved the way for so many => Ur girl for exemple.
    ciao

    @ legends who??:

    Um, Mary and Lauryn are MOST DEFINITELY living legends, and Jay has acquired crossover appeal as a rapper, & has been in this game for a decade and a half, so if he’s not a legend yet, he sure as hell will be one.

  100. True Blue August 30, 2010

    ^^ And you don’t have to be dead or old to be considered a legend.

  101. Drea1204 August 30, 2010

    YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Legendary indeed. ALL you stans, PLEASE just appreciate this moment for what it is. Save your pie charts & Wikipedia facts for another time? Thanks.

  102. raraskils August 30, 2010

    what…she got like everybody from the VIP box to come out….LOL
    good to see she’s back in the music game. =D

  103. mena August 30, 2010

    wow u guys are being nice cause i know everybody wants the old lauren back but shes gone an i dont think shes coming back. her performance was s***** an forcing those popular artist on stage was an epic fail that still does not excuse the fact that she sounded like pure s***. i wish lauren the best of luck!! if she is trying to make a come back i will support her if its good music! but pulling todays popular urban arstist on stage letting them take shine away from u is like really? lauren really? that doesnt impress me as a fan, an not to mentioned she reminded me of a hyper active crackhead not cool lauren not cool!! oh an you connot have one successful album an automaticly become an ledgend i dont think it works like that 🙂

  104. Sunshine August 30, 2010

    @Mena…I love Lauren but I have to agree with you.

  105. all about the music August 30, 2010

    Congratulations!

    For once no gossip! Just music news and a video of Lauryn singing.

    It was really hip/hip history on Saturday not just Lauryn but for all old school.

  106. NO August 31, 2010

    @TRUE BLUE

    Lauryn Hill is NOT a legend
    Neither is Mary J. >She was an overhyped mixture of Anita Baker & Aretha Franklin >TRUE legends

    Jay Z may be a legend but he’s one of the most OVERRATED hip hop artists if not THE most in history.

    @TAM
    Yes Beyonce may be above the others on stage in being more overexposed, overrated, commercially successful, and relevant to the mainstream but otherwise, she is NO WHERE NEAR above the others in talent.

  107. OBI TEXAS August 31, 2010

    simply amazing!

  108. KD August 31, 2010

    Wow, funny how she got all the ladies that have “hair made by Europeans and fake nails made by Koreans” how the world changes.

  109. Lynn Styles October 31, 2010

    I really love this girl, and when she get it together.. She is going to be hot again.. I just hope they don’t leave her twisting in the wind again.. I feel everyone who brought her in to this music world left her twisting in the wind.. So I am so glad everyone is trying to pull her back into the world of music.. I don’t know who reached out to the mother of 5.. But I do know this.. She still can flow… Nikkie needs to watch out…
