Vanessa Williams: The Greatest Comeback Story Ever! Just Cause They Knock You Down, Doesn’t Mean You Have To Stay DOWN. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Vanessa Williams is so beautiful and a jack of all trades! Some fun facts: The “family f*cked my husband” from Soul Food wasn’t in the script and was improvised. Also, Vanessa Williams was originally suppose to be Boomerang playing Jacqueline (Robin Givens) and Tisha Campbell’s role in Spike Lee’s School Daze.
That was some damn good improv! Loved her as Terry! ❤
Loved her in soul food. It's funny because I identify with her character 😂😂
The accuracy
Imagine the bitterness and envy of those who were excited to see her relinquish her crown and title, only to hear Vanessa singing on the radio and starring in movies. 😂 I've always liked Vanessa.
Ikr? People are gross.
Vanessa Williams is the Renaissance woman. Beautiful singer, actress, dancer, theater. She's also very intelligent. What can't she do? At 61, she has also aged like fine wine too.❤❤
She's very beautiful but also humble and play the bougie educated woman and villain very well. She was also NOT the villain in " Soul Food". I realized that when I got older. Her family used, demeaned and gaslit her when she worked VERY hard for her lifestyle.
I came across a video (I think from The Take YT channel) discussing the rich aunt/older sister troupe which includes Terry from Soul Food
Vanessa Lynn Williams is not ONLY one of my FAVORITE multi hyphenate artists. She is one of my HEROES after all of the backlash she endured just to rise like a PHOENIX! Proving she's more than a beauty queen, she can sing, dance AND act to this day. Give her new release Survivor on Spotify some love y'all! It's worth a listen! Legs is so UPLIFTING! ❤
I am super super super glad her character stayed all the way through on Ugly Betty.
Wilhelmina Slater is one of my top 10 favorite characters ever on television!!!!!
I liked her character Renee Perry on Desperate Houswives too.
She will always be Miss America
She’s very underrated as a vocalist I believe, she has a lot of great songs on her albums.
She is such a class act. This was such a pleasant watch ❤
Oh man, I've always been a huge fan of Vanessa ever since I was a kid! I'll never forget her winning that Miss America pageant and how happy my family and I were for her because she lived in our area. I still bump her first two albums on a regular basis.
I was RAISED by Vanessa's music. My parents went to the concert in 98 and I still have the T-shirt❤
Same here I loved vanessa williams as kid 😊
✨ I see where her children got all that talent and charm from. Some ppl in my generation don't know about Vanessa but my aunty living in the states (US) put me on years ago. It was interesting to hear about her come up, I had not known all this before.
Vanessa Williams is the most successful miss America winner in history. Before her it was Lee Meriwether. I loved her in eraser with Arnold Schwarzenegger💪🏿
Amazing story on Vanessa L. Williams
I clicked so fast when I saw you were covering Vanessa Williams. Iv loved her work ever since I was a teenager. Very beautiful and so talented, she definitely had the It factor back then😂 She has been through a lot but she has come out at the other end. I wish her well for the future🔥🔥🔥
What a star! Go Vanessa!!
Your voice gives me a lil Vanessa Williams sound! I couldn't place it until now lol. Love Comfort Zone, Dreamin, Work to do, Running Back to you, Save the Best for Last, Colors of the Wind... & love her daughter Jillians music too a*k*a Lionbabe❤
Love to see she's still doing what she loves!
What an amazing life story ❤❤❤❤❤
Great video about a great legend!
Vanessa Williams is very beautiful❤❤❤.
So beautiful. Pure and flawless
Genevieve, you have got to be the baddest sista TH-cam has ever seen! I would have to put you on the Mt. Rushmore of documentary creators. This is another outstanding biography with so many unknown details. I hope you keep doing this forever and ever and ever!!
Vanessa’s second daughter Jillian is professionally known as LIONBABE
Aka that girl 🙂↔️
@@Charnelle3 THAT!!!!!!!
Their new duet BOP is a whole VIBE! ❤
😮 I am a huge fan and had no idea! ❤❤❤
Yep. And she is perfect mixture of Vanessa and Ramon.
Vanessa Williams is beautiful! 💙
Vanessa Williams also appeared in Johnson Family Vacation with Cedric the Entertainer, Bow Wow, Solange and Steve Harvey and Light it Up with Usher, Fredro Starr, Robert Ri'Chard, Rosario Dawson, Forest Whitaker and Sara Gilbert
I just rewatched Johnson Family Vacation and couldn't stop laughing,very good film. Jason Mamoa is also in this movie. Have Light it Up on dvd,haven't watched it in years tho.
Always love her❤❤❤
The Right Stuff is still on my rotation of albums! I’ll Be The One, Security, If You Really Love Him, all bops!
Legend 💯 ❤️🔥
I don’t view VW as ever having been disgraced although they tried to. She was 19yo. She made a mistake. If we think back on the foolishness we did in our teen years we’d crumble in embarrassment. She’s a success story no matter which way you look at it.
Vanessa Williams has an incredible story of triumph!
Vanessa Williams:had some classic albums and some movies……The comfort zone:still have that album to this day…..also she’s very kind to her fans and sometimes interacts with her fans on social media……
Thank you! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Man...that "The Comfort Zone" album cover did something to 6 year old me 😮😅
Perhaps the best thing about that second album was all the songs that DIDN'T get major radio airplay. I loved the entire album but these are special right here:
Goodbye, Better Off Now, Freedom Dance, Just For Tonight, One Reason, You Gotta Go, Stranger's Eyes, Still In Love and What Will I Tell My Heart💚💚💚💚
Running Back To You (1991)🎉 - HER BEST SONG🎉
She did an amazing job as Teri in the movie Soul Food
I still all of her music in my regular playlists. She’s so talented. I’m glad she didn’t let those assholes keep her down because we wouldn’t have that music, those movies and her ridiculously talented children in the industry. Dreamin is my favorite song of Vanessa’s.
Great piece on her. This is so respectful.
She was in the jackson movie too
VANESSA YOU ARE ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ON THE PLANET.. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very good video
I got a big big crush on Vanessa Williams. I actually met her at my job 1 time
Both the Vanessa Williams’s were associated with a “soul food” too lol
Yup a movie and a show
I like Vanessa Williams. I'm happy she overcame so much and God blessed her and she survived
I truly enjoyed this ,followed her career from crown to now.On watching this think Im going to pull out my greatest hits by her.I truly loved how she bounced back.Now the people apologed for taking her crown,oh please
She is beautiful
❤ Vanessa Williams. So beautiful and talented. I wish I could watch her on Devil Wears Prada
Never forget that moment when Vanessa Williams was on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air as sports journalist Danny Mitchell and she said I went and saved the best for last and Will was surprised.
She went on to become the best known and most famous former Miss America.. take that
You go gal!!!
0:03 Vanessa Williams.
0:03 yes.
Vanessa Williams also collaborated with Black Sheep on the song Work to Do off her sophomore album The Comfort Zone
Yep, Dres had dope bars
0:12 My Childhood Role model since '96.
Her Autobiography is GOODT!!
It is ??? I'm gonna buy it.
Her haters must feel siiiick 😂
Do Bone thugs n harmony please.
Great idea
I think its kinda ridiculous that her Miss America title was stripped over spicy photos she took years prior.
These days a contestant would win and start an OF account the next day. No one would even care. lol
nah even today tehy would likely strip the title for porn photos. my only hope is that she didn't get sexually exploited to gain fame. as in anything more than just those pics
Is it just me or does Vanessa Williams resemble Olivia Newton-John?👀 & reason why I'm saying this is because she looks EXACTLY like a black version of Olivia Newton-John + they BOTH have the same vocal range frfr💯
Haven’t received any suggestion from this page I just soo happened to check myself thankfully I did YOU TUBE ISN’T LOYAL.
I love the save the best for last
And I also love fighting back to you
She was my first girlfriend in my head. (I was 4)
I've always been infatuated with her since I saw the cover for The Comfort Zone.
Can you do Rick Fox next then?
She was married to him
I just looked up the pics and all I can say was. why in the world would she take those photos? I can understand if it was just artistic nudes but that was porn. bad judgment call. live and learn. she had a good comeback
In living color did good tribute parody of her 😅
😅 bruh, i had a crush on her as teen even though she was on her 50s when watching desperate housewives..
Vanessa Williams I just want put your name in the end of my rhyme Doowutchyalike , I’ll say that when things were going well for her won some local pageants and the biggest one the miss america pageant but somehow someone tried to knock her down and put her to shame forcing her to give up her crown , but with some help she rose to fame and success and she can tell all of her haters how you like me now.
ALRIGHT, LOOK. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THE 1996 BLOCKBUSTER FILM "ERASER" WITH ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER FOR WARNER BROS. WHICH MEANS THOSE ASSHOLES SHOULD'VE PUT MY FAVORITE MOVIE "ERASER" ON THE FUCKIN' MAP, BUT DAMN, MAN! 😡😠
They really didn’t know have a lot of makeup for African Americans. We looked so dry with flashbacks dominated.
My brain is still confused on how she came from parents that looked like that lol I don’t see the resemblance with her features at all
But that's a good thing that she doesn't look like her parents.
Soooo.... You're telling me she's available.... asking for a friend...
13:23 i perfer Vanessa L. Williams
one of the worst actresses I have seen. I cannot stand watching her movies. Especially in ugly Betty. I have to fast forward from seeing her. I rather watch Betty. She is a way better actress.
it was her fault!
Oh shut up
I absolutely love Vanessa’s work. She was an awesome phenomenal singer and actress.🩷❤️
I'm glad Vanessa continued on with her very versatile artistic career. I have loved listening to her sing anything, especially ballads, since '88.
That Miss America craziness just goes to show earth "success" is most often followed by clouds of grey because this world hates organic happiness and joy.
This consistent reality saddens me🫤
I love her music sine the 1990s.
