I love this quote SO much!❤️
Have you done Bobby Gentry? She’s so mysterious, beautiful, talented, and then just disappeared.
@@lorianne4936she’s on my list. Her story is so interesting. I will do one on her soon.
Great break down I didn't know anything about her
I did a stint as a policitcal p a p a r a z z I in NYC and shh was running for an office there. Shh processed a great amount of cherisma and Dem eyes were Beautiful like diamonds and they were naturaly captivating, when she looked at you shh would wood look you straight in the eyes, even at a distant... so mu c H that it had a grip on you and you would freeze for a moment.
My hubby & I met Lola Falana in person at an event where we live! She had given up her career & was speaking about her love for Jesus Christ during the event. I had a previous engagement that same day but was able to finish up & meet my hubby at the event where she was appearing. Anyway, I couldn't spot my man to see where he was seated as this was a well attended function, so I stayed at the door scanning the room for him. In the meantime, Lola was already on the stage speaking, & she honed in on me several times & would look off down to the right. She did that several times, & I realized that she knew who I was looking for. Sure enough, I followed her gaze to find my hubby seated at a table near the stage. She was drawing energy from us as we listened to her message, &following the program we went up on stage to meet her & get her autograph. She knew we loved the Lord & enjoyed speaking with us & signing her autograph for us. Very pleasant experience, & I can tell you she was embracing us with hugs, & she's was absolutely flawless in her beauty!
Very sweet
Thanks for sharing 👍
She has a beautiful spirit; she came to me in my dreams,😍😍
Wow...I don't know who she is and haven't watched this video as of yet, but now I'm going to go and learn more about her. I really want to know her testimony.
......you talk too much
@@patrickb1439 3 words too many from you
with a name like Lola Falana.. you HAD TO BE FINE. Mission accomplished with her
That's her real last name and just a shortening of her first name, Loletha.
Before there were Beyoncé! Lola Falana, was something to reckon with. She was an amazing performer. Great story… 😍
Yes indeed
I knew it! No surprise Beyonce’s name got thrown into this lolololol
@@annettebrown9489 yelp, I sure did! 😂 Did you want me to name someone else’s name? Hmm, how about Rihanna? 🤷♀️ She’s definitely not on that level.. I named Beyoncé bc she’s obviously a great performer. “Compliment” 🙄 Tbh, there’s not too many other entertainers that I can named that’s a great performer compared to Lola. Ijs Shalom honey.
yesss I definitely see her influence on Beyonce
I came here to comment the same. Not a super fan of B but the very same dance moves and style of B is all Lola! It's sad I remember the Lola song yet never ever heard of the person until now.
I was a teenager in the mid 70's. Lola was a big deal because there was time black people would run to the T.V. when a Black person was on screen (hard to believe nowadays) because Black people weren't on television... AT ALLL. So when somebody like Lola FINALLY hit the screen, She was a Black Beauty Bombshell!!! Lola brought joy to THOUSANDS of Black people who watched her through her talent and beauty. She's a true icon who doesn't get her proper historic respect.
Really? Bill Cosby was on I Soy in the ‘60’s. Ivan Dixon on Hogan’s Heroes. Nichelle Nichols on Star Trek. Eartha Kitt was on a number of shows including Batman as Catwoman. There were a lot of black people on TV in the 60’s even the 50’s when Nat King Cole had his own show. And you’re saying is they were rare on TV in the 70’s? Either you lived under a rock or you’re lying.
Yes they were. Flip Wilson had a show, so did The Jackson's and of course there were the black sitcoms of the 70's and Soul Train.
There were at least 4 black actors in the Lil Rascals. Diane Carroll played Julia in the late 60s. Do your research before you make a statement like this. you can do a rebuttal now.
@@reneeyoung3186The Lil Rascals was a racist show.
@@turquoisepurple7sky151 of course it was but there were black actors
Lola Falana was/is a pioneer of the TV & stage era! Waaay before Beyoncé & Rihanna, or Whitney & Halle, she “broke” barriers that many Nonwhite women had never dared. Looking at this retrospective, I’m reminded of her talent, her grace, & her tireless efforts to keep her audience riveted-really a high-wire, tightrope artist of skill & great poise under pressure. I’d assumed that MS was the main reason for her reclusion. But now I learn that she’s been busy & far from declining for many years. Never had an appreciation for how “quickly” she rose to stardom, it was really how young-a child performer when she began!! She was also very “quick” in apprehending the game, learning the ropes, & in making an exit that cannot be said to have held epic tragedy in its wake. MS is indeed serious. I’ve lost a very good friend to it. Ms. Falana’s remarkably active & varied recovery is a testament to no small amount of inner strength & to listening to her own body’s abilities. I salute her genius.
PS-Dinah Washington, whose fame was before your time, mentored & encouraged many young talents & peers. Her voice is one of jazz/music’s G.O.A.T. vocalists. “Dinah” is said with a long-i, like the Louis Armstrong hit song of that name.
I remember her in Italy in the 70 when I was a child. She's still loved today in Italy, powerful artist.
Love Lola Falana❤️She reminded me of Diana Ross and Diahann Carroll. I even had a Lola Falana Barbie doll in the seventies.
Yep she remind me of 70s Tina Turner too.
Yes I see the combination also
Wow! Wish I could have got doll. I had the Julia doll
Oh, yes, Lola was the best in her day.
@@kimmoore6445 Oh, my. I wanted a Julia doll. Hope you kept it.
She reminds me of Tamron Hall for some reason. She’s so beautiful and talented. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Flawless beauty also is Tamron.
Lola Falana was the business! She was talented and beautiful. They don't make them like that anymore.
Um? Lupita Nyongo Is the Resurgence
@@G.G.276no
@@G.G.276 not even CLOSE. 🤦🏾♀️
Lola was a jem, especially in the Black community.
She always had a big smile on her face that electrified the audience.
It's a shame the are not more entertainers of her caliber around today.
Entertainers are basically what Jesus said, hypocrites and actors 🎭
Gem
Thank you for the wonderful and postive compliments about my Aunt. . ❤
It is gem not jem...
I was about to say the same thing regarding burnout. ❤I lived on 4 hours of sleep or less for over 20 years with work, family, and side hustles and ended up developing lupus, fibromyalgia, and a handful of other illnesses. Like Lola, I had to leave that lifestyle and changed my diet to fruit, vegetables and alkaline water along with an exercise routine and more sleep. Happy to say I am in remission. Applause to Lola! Thank you for sharing her story!
Yep, I got me one of them tshirts too! Looks like we made it!!!!! 😂😘🕊️💪🏼
Wow love it
Lola Falana was a phenomenal women she could do everything and her beauty was out of this world.
I totally agree with you
Yes Ms. Falana was absolutely beautiful and a talent extraordinaire.
My dad used to love this woman. He would get a big smile on his face whenever she was on television.
My mama used to call me miss Lola Falana because of how long I take to get ready , and it was a compliment that she didn’t realize she was making 😂
She was in this movie, "a man called Adam", "Lady Cocoa", The Liberation of LB Jones", "The Klansman" She was really good. And she was one of the first to talk about nutrition linked to her healing.
Do you remember Brenda Sykes from that movie "Liberation of LB Jones" as well! She was another beautiful woman!
@milapopov1627 oh yes!!! Brenda Sykes is beautiful!!!
I remember her entertaining the troops in Vietnam and korea with Bob Hope in the 70s.
She was very gifted performer. I'm happy she's taking care of herself. God bless you Lola F!
I'm white,my Mom and Dad used to drive all the way from northern California to LA and Vegas to hear Lola sing and dance in her day ..they bought her records and played them ...they adored her so much ................and look 15:57 at her with Billy D Williams there {later known as Lando Calrissian haha} stunning .....thank you for including Lola in your videos so young people can understand show business and relationships
Will always remember Lola. She was everything in the 60’s and 70’s. Such an amazing talent.
I remember watching reruns of Sanford and Son and Fred Sanford (Redd Fox) kept going on and on about Lola Falana and how beautiful and amazing she was. I was wondering if she was a real life celebrity or just a character that they had made up for the show. That’s what made me look up her bio. She was such a talented woman. It’s a shame that there aren’t more positive representations of beautiful black women in the media now.
You are correct about today's entertainers. My kids would go with me. Today I would never take them. It's no telling what would happen between the performers on stage, or what the lyrics would contain. However, these days you must be financially sound to even think about buying tickets for any concert. It's a sad situation....
That’s the first thing i thought of sanford and son lol
And on The Jeffersons The Cosby show and a lot of other black shows they talked about Lola falana all the time I remember when Miss Jefferson dressed up like Lola falana for Halloween
R U Serious not to get off subject but Black women are THE MEDIA NOW JS
Fred talked about Lola Falana and Lena Horne he was going to join Elizabeth when she was on the show 😂
At last girl! Always wanted to learn more about Ms. Falana! This sista was a gorgeous talented woman! Triple threat!! That skin was so flawless! Amazing woman! I'm glad you did her story!!😘😘😘😘
A true inspiration. A true black beauty with intelligence, talent and class.
I remember seeing her on the covers of Jet magazine when I was a child. Always thought she was soooo gorgeous. And Dinah Washington's name is pronounced Die-nah. Thanks for this, as well as your other videos!! Continued success!!
I met her in Vegas years ago and knew who she was right away. Those pretty eyes have not changed! My mother and I spoke to her and she was so kind and friendly. Made my day, as a Lil black girl who looked up to her, it was wonderful to meet her.
I had to watch this because she’s from my hometown. You occasionally hear stories about her from older adults here. She was such a naturally beautiful woman. I think Quad from the show, Married to Medicine, looks like her to me. As a young girl I was a fan of hers. I’ve often wondered where’s she at now. She was a triple threat like you don’t see to often nowadays. I would love to see her out there now, but our society does not always cherish our older legends.
A common story...we hear quite often...
@ Kathryn L Flax, you know that’s the reason as to why I watched the video as well. She was born in my hometown of Camden. Some that are old enough used to talk about her when I was growing up as a young teen in early 80’s. 💗🙏🏾
Quad? Karryn, ur tribute was right on, UNTIL, u made that comparison. JUST SAYING!!
Quad???? Are you off your rocker? I know this is not the best thing I could say to you, but it's certainly not the worst with the comparison you just made with Lola to the vile woman Quad is who doesn't even look like herdamnself with all the work she's had done and the way she over-does herself!
Quad??? Sorry, Quad does not compare to the beautiful Lola Falana!!!
Wow ...I had briefly forgotten about her! Multilingual!! She was gorgeous with a beautiful voice💗
My uncle was crazy about Lola, my aunt was jealous because he was mesmerized just watching her dance
Wow please keep doing women from the 1970s the level of glamour in this decade is underrated and I need more
lola falana, joey heatherton. you couldn’t turn on the tv in the 70’s without seeing 1 of them singing and dancing.
Yes I tell people this often! Lola was friends with my grandmother and even spoke at a dedication for her but it was her message that Im sure alot of people know her to speak and that was her love of Jesus had saved her from Hollywood even after they took her money etc. She was a beautiful women even as a senior very youthful and energetic
FINALLY someone does a Lola Falana video! Thank you!
She kinda resembles Tammi Terrell to me!
A top talent. I remember watching Lola on the top variety shows when I was a child. She was full of energy, talent and a beautiful personality. Lola's beauty was inside and out.
This made me think about myself. I’m a workaholic working 3 jobs with a disease and I have nobody as well. I think I’m going to let one of them go. I’m getting exhausted now at the age of 39 approaching. I could be a sad case. No family no kids and barely any friends. I have church family but having a hard time connecting with too 😢
You still have time to have children.
In Jesus name, I think you will, find that special someone, just have that mustard seed of faith, and yes narrow down, your job duties, and take, more time for you, live a little, but always, be vigilant,date, and please don't let your total guard down,( I just hope you have kids, before your 50, lol) all in all,you stay, blessed,peace, love& prosperity.
💪👍✌️🐬🌈🌍♥️💸🙏

@@dollyfrazier5885 are u kidding me. She's at least 70 years of age.
I remember dancing at discotechs in the 1970's to her music...had no idea she was a famous dancer...blame my disconnect on my never watching TV. Her spiritual journey guided her away from a life where her sexuality was exploited, commodified and idolized...that takes real courage. Best wishes for her evangelical ministry to others. Her song love train comes to mind.
According to the video, she started dabbling into witchcraft, which opened the door to demonic manifestation in her life physically and every other area in her life. She renounced her involvement with witchcraft, repented to the Lord, and was healed. That's what happened.
Lola was a big part of our household in the 70’s my Mother enjoyed watching her performances on television
What a fascinating woman.
Lola’s story is my favorite breakdown you’ve done so far. I related to so much of it.
“I just want to be a lady.” Yasss!🙌🏻🥹
She is a beautiful woman of God and is in the best hands now!
I remember watching her on tv when I was younger! She was a site to see so dynamic! But it didn’t know she was Afro-Latina, spoke 3 languages and was from my state of NJ!
She truly has a beautiful story and a happy ending! Fame and riches are what many aspire to, but to find a desire for more heavenly pursuits in its place is a blessing!
Thank you for this.. as a little girl I would call myself Lola .. bedside my Mom and Grandmother, I thought she was the most beautiful woman ever.
I remember being present when Lola Falana gave her testimony at Christ Universal Temple where I used to be a member. May God continue to bless you Ms. Falana.
Lola was an icon and an amazing entertainer! She ruled Las Vegas back in the day. Going on no sleep, no food, and not proper vitamins is the cause of illness! Making $100 k a week was a reason for her to hustle. You have to choose to live with rest or you won't live at all!
I'm so glad that she has chosen to live! Good biography Karine!! 👏💐❤️
How am I only learning about this fabulous woman now? She's AMAZING...full steam ahead all the time. The kind of performer I aspire to be...without the burnout. I have been lucky enough to be a performer for 50 years ...and still going strong. Anyone caught up in the treadmill of making tons of money for someone else......don't let them push you beyond your limits. Health first.
Deep admiration , love and thanks due to Lola. Inspiring in everything she does. Thank you for taking care of the orphans.Respect.
Oh how I just loved watching her perform!
Lola, the Undisputed Queen of Las Vegas. My stepdad loved her and Muni paid tribute to her on the BET awards. I think it was the BET awards.
I always heard of and loved her name, "Lola Falana", throughout my life. I never new about her until today. In fact, I thought she was caucasian woman. I'm so glad to have learned about her life, here. Thanks.
She’s gorgeous! I was listening to a podcast on her the other day ❤️. She low key looks like the actress Theresa Randle ❤️.
Wow I remember her as a child my mom followed her career. She’s so beautiful. Thankful and happy she turned her life around and found peace and spiritual fulfillment
Lina Horn,Diana carrol, lola Falana. Some of Gods most beautiful creatures. Have you ever seen any humans anywhere this flawless.?
Her legs were starting to go out on her during that Motown Christmas Special. She couldn’t do the dance she was supposed to do bc she couldn’t get her legs to move once she came out on stage, so she just remained standing next to Redd Foxx. They were Santa and Mrs Clause, and his sleigh was a 50s classic car.
I Love Lola she was from my era "What ever Lola wants Lola Gets!
I never thought I will see a day when I will seek the help of a Sorceress in order to keep my marriage and family together.
@Casey Muller Well, I got the help I was seeking from a woman called Luana KaeBranigan she can be of help to you.
Take you all Coven selves onto anothet page you Demons
Try Jesus Christ instead. 🙏🏾
Turn to Jesus. He has the answers
A NUN!!! Wow, that's a shocking turn. One thing that always struck me about her name is that both names are Yoruba, Lola is most times the name of a girl, sometimes a boy. Omolola is the full name and Falana is most times a surname
There are a lot of Cubans that have Yoruba ancestry in their blood!
Please stop, not everyone can trace their ancestry to Yorba. DNA test are bologna.
I use to love watching the Lola Falana show on TV. She was FABULOUS!!💥
Fantastic content and presentation. I didn’t know she was such a big deal. I heard her name a lot growing up but didn’t realize her largesse. I’m so glad she’s happy. Thank you!
Thanks for reminding us of her. I recall as a young child in the 80s hearing her name a lot but never quite knew who she was or what she did. I just knew she was someone famous!!👏
She was a legend in Italy. So beautiful she is. It is a shame that she never reached the statue of Marilyn Monroe. However, we know why.
No, She ‘s better off. Living in Peace! If only Ms Monroe knew her personal worth She would of WALKED AWAY TOO!
@@G.G.276 I agree. You are correct. The entertainment industry takes its toll on people. A blessing in disguise.
Marilyn Monroe??? Monroe was a used up bimbo.
@@rubytuesday5567 Perhaps, but she is still very much venerated today. Yet, another movie about her life was made last year.
@@G.G.276 Exactly
Thanks for the video on Lola. I always refer to her and Irene Cara as the original "Afro-Latinas" in show business. I remember seeing her commercial , where she was the first woman to earna $1,0000,00.00 back in the day and watching her on various shows as a kid in the 70's. Talented lady and I hope she is doing well. I would love to see a movie based on her life.
I remember Lola on the Tonight Show a lot. Lola and Johnny Carson were funny together. :)
Lola Falana is one of the best entertainers I ever saw. She has that WOW factor. I had Bell's palsy which is paralysis on one side of the face.
I was always just curious and infastinatced by hearing her name growing up lola falana sounds so beautiful and unique, and when I figure out who she was I was like she was gorgeous like a black barbie . I actually named my daughter middle name Lolastar lol. to me she's like a modern day Josephine Baker
I agree! I named my "bird of paradise" plant Lola Falana for that reason... the sound of the name matched the beautiful, unique exotic look of the plant 💚
Months ago I asked for a possible profile of LOLA FALANA, and you expertly delivered. THX YOU.
She was full of ENERGY ✨
A stunningly, beautiful woman with various talents that I remember her during the late 60's-- 70's. Her acting, dancing, and, singing skills, showed her creativity. May she continue her work for God, and receive his blessings through her devotion and dedication.
I always loved Lola!! She was just everything to me, the epitome of an entertainer and was very inspirational. She never cheapened herself to be famous, she just had that "it" factor. She encouraged me to learn Italian and although I am not 100% fluent I know more now that I did before. As a 40+ person I played a different game and am very happy entertaining when I can. I was lucky to meet a lot of celebrities who looked out for me and guided me, so even though I don't have international fame, but I am well known in certain circles. I never did all of those things to be famous so what Lola said really resonated with me. I am happy and healthy and enjoy spreading love, and happiness. I enjoy my TH-cam channel "Lord Brian Alejandro" Lola taught me a lot! and teaching the Dunham technique to people around the world. Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for covering Ms.Lola she was everything in the 70s & 80s. She was beautiful and full of energy. I remember just being fascinated by her. I'm she's still around on her terms.
It's good to find out that she is doing well after just dropping out of the public eyes. I had thought it was because the passing of most of the people in entertainment who supported her.
The 1960’s and 1970’s was a time of entertainment - Broadway, Hollywood musicals, Las Vegas- and Lola was a part of it all. I did not know how close she was to Sammy Davis jr., but it makes sense. When I heard that Lola became a nun, I could understand. She decided to get off of the merry-go-round. Not everyone is able to walk away from that kind of fame. ❤
💜She’s incredibly stunning I’ve never heard of her thank you Karine for this droplet of lite and knowledge/break down of this multi-talented woman.🌸👸🏾🌸
I honor Lola Falana every woman's History Month. I'm Philiadelphian and I tell you her career burned in me the importance of being an incredible personality as a talented black woman and unafraid to do God's work and see it clearly! I have a slow growth curve and grateful for it! Thank you I bwill post your link and a small excerpt!
Hi! How do I connect with you?
I AM GLAD THAT YOU DID THIS KARINE ON LOLA FALANA, SHE IS SUCH AN AMAZING SHOW BUSINESS PERSON BACK IN THE DAY AND I AM GLAD SHE FOUND FAITH IN GOD!!😃
Thank you for this article! I remember watching her perform alongside Sammy Davis, Jr., and always thought they were a 'thing' back then. (However, I didn't know until now that she got her Jumpstart with Dinah (pronounced with a long 'i') until now! So thank you again for this!
Her story reminds me of Betty Page, the pinup girl who mysteriously disappeared and became a Christian & worked behind the scenes of the Billy Graham Crusade until the day she died in 2009. She changed her appearance so that only the grahams knew her true identity at her request of course. I think it was nice of them to keep their promise to her.
As in the BETTIE PAGE? Well, I'll be....
She always reminded me of a more talented version of Diana Ross when I was little (no shade to Diana I love her too). In some pictures her facial features reminds me of Tyra Banks and the singer Tamia, but she moves like Beyoncé. This younger generation of female entertainers really need to pay homage to woman like her for paving the way. Thanks for this video❤
EDIT: Just looked up her bday and she's a Virgo like Beyoncé
I was wondering!!!! I'm a Virgo too. anyway I always check famous people's sign. But I was glued to the video and comments section and hadn't been able to check yet, thx!
@@richnbeautyme2813 Me too! First I try to guess their sign the I check it 😄
You said All That Very Well.
Thank u for the wonderful things about my Aunt...❤
@@anisawood7187 ❤
Wow, shes’s the Lola they sing about? What a legend. Well done, this was an excellent piece. Thank you.
I use to always hear her name in 70s TV show and I would be like who are they talking about. I googled and TH-cam her oneday I was astounded. So beautiful and talented.
You got Hollywood in the right 'box', Karine.
Hollywood is very good at the 'you're dead to me' game.
Lola Falana was blessed with what talent scouts call 'it'. It's sad that she was appreciated more in Europe then she was here (U.S.).
I understand it.
There are so many United States musical artists that are accepted/compensated monetarily in Europe.
It is truly our loss.
I'm happy to hear she was very successful in Spain and Italy. I would have loved to have seen her with her own way of using her talent.
Kinda like when Eartha Kitt had her own TV show.
I recently heard that when Candi Staton dropped out of the 'spot light', she had used her talent for her faith and started singing gospel. So of course Hollywood considered that Candi was 'dead to them'.
This is what talent is..yalls " beyondme" does not even compare.. I love you, Lola
Why the comparison in the first place?
@@googleuser7454 Several other people in the comments have compared them. I don't see it because Bey's countenance is very dark and heavy, unlike Ms. Falana.
Manic depression (melancholia) runs in the Sherman side of my family. I was always considered talented in singing, am a natural (untrained) dancer and frenetic athlete, an early reader, an early learner of algebra, and had poor study techniques due to being kept in elementary school against my will and passing exams effortlessly. At the same time, I always considered myself ugly, have been a social pariah my entire life, am the world’s worst salesman, and am the Cassandra of American Politics.
Though I am constitutionally incapable of success, I can relate to Lola Falana’s story, especially to its melancholia aspect.
Thank you for sharing.
My God!
Now I see where "Coming to America" got their dancing theme. 👍.. Great video as always.
I always wondered what happened to Lola Falana . Good for her. I do remember her having MS. She was doing EVERYTHING movies, theater, Las Vegas, TV, modeling, recordings , EVERYTHING !!!! She’s fantastic ❤!!! As always thank you for this amazing video.
She was my idol in the 70’s. I would apply my makeup like her. I wanted to look like her. Was told several times that I was close 😂.
I saw the testimony of her spiritual transformation. Even that stuck with me 😢 I pray she’s doing well now.
The fact that she is from Camden NJ is so amazing 😭 IYKYK!
I remember seeing Lola Falana on "The Muppet Show" when I was a kid. I thought she was soooo beautiful and I loved saying her name. It's so catchy!
Lola Falana is one of my favorite entertainers of all time I love her! I was a little girl when she came on the scene and it’s amazing how much that she is forgotten. I can remember when she was the ish! But I am glad that she was healed from MS and that she decided to walk away from Hollywood safely. She’s probably in her 80’s now and I’m glad that she’s still alive. Because most of the entertainers who did it the way that she did it are gone now. I enjoyed the way that you chose to celebrate her and I appreciate all of the footage that you shared with us. This was incredible and it brought me so much joy to watch thanks again 👏🏾👏🏾
She is gorgeous. Amara La negra can play her in a movie.
Some one needs to do a movie about this woman . Love her
Lola was my celebrity crush when I was a kid. (It’s Dinah Washington. Not Deena. ) She talks about how hard Dinah was on her. But it helped her.
I've been waiting on this video for awhile and it was so worth the wait. Ms Lola was absolutely amazing, beautiful inside and outside.
Thanks beautiful 👑 for your hard work with putting out great content. Learning so much, thank you. 😊
Thanks so much for posting this video!, Always wondered what became of her. I'm glad she's healed and doing well. Bless her. 🙏🏽
Thank you for posting this. Miss Lola is a great person and executed a very wise transition which works for her. Some life lessons to be learned. Thanks for sharing the wisdom with love.
Thank you so much for this one Karine. 😍 I wanted to see one about Lola Folana. Always so much information in your videos and things I didn't know.
Karine, thank you so much for changing the music. Your voice is now the center.
I'm glad to know she's doing well. Thank you for doing a piece on Ms. Lola.
The classy Lola Falana was Fred Sanford's girlfriend in his head. 😁
Yep lol that is where I first heard her name.
@@thetruesoulofanaquarius9302 😂
I thought it was Lena Horne
😂
All this time I didn’t know she was this fine!
Thank you very much ! I was just a kid when she was performing, but I remember her WELL! Truly a STAR in every sense.
Karine you did an excellent job on another video!!!
Thanks for sharing I had no idea!
Never knew any of this about Lola. What an amazing, genuinely humble woman. God bless her.
I never knew why we didn't hear much of her anymore, now I know, I like her performances my grandmother and I use to watch her performances on different shows
