I had no idea Shari and Christopher (Play) were married and had a child together...
Shari was beautiful back then and is still beautiful now, she's aged like wine.
I learned that several months ago while watching that Blackstreet video, "Before I Let You Go," in which she starred... a few commenters mentioned that. Play gets mad props for wifing her.
I was shocked when I found that out a few years a go.
O snap!! That's what's up!!
Ricardo Cadet : Bro, I Actually Think He Aged Better Than Kid... Play Has A Full Hairline & If He Were To Use JUST FOR MEN, He Could Pass For Someone In Their 30’s...
She's aged more like milk.
I’m glad to hear that the filming wrapped up before coronavirus lockdown.
The whole cast was beautiful!!
I met Shari on a plane to California about 5 years ago. She was sitting at the window & I was on the aisle sea5. We started talking as we were about to land. She looked familiar to me but, she had to prompt me till I guessed who she was. Very nice lady!
She's always been GORGEOUS!!😍
Indeed.

So are you
@@kevino1489 Thank u!😊❤
She is KILLIN that short cut! 🔥🔥🔥
Ms. Dani facts 😍
@blackbull5150 ❤
Gorgeous lady 😍
It looks nice on her.
Very few can rock that short cut!!!... Maybe 1 day i'll post the one of me & my favorite model with it!!
The sister who played Patrice was even more forgotten
@MissBttrsctch yes, Sister Soujah, i always thought the sister was cuter. But please don't start any light v dark skin bs. I say this because of the heavy emphasis on the "MORE BEAUTIFUL" part. They were both fine. Chill...
Who?
It's the light skin vs. dark skin thing. Patrice was basically a stereotype, while the lighter sister was the one worthy of love and smart and all that. It's my only problem with that movie.
@@drbarnes9831 Y'all be sounding really dumb saying "who" when she was mentioned/seen in the video AND you have google. Stop being lame.
Nahh Lisa was cuter....has none to do with color
She's still very beautiful 🤗
Russonda Holley I couldn’t agree more 🙂
hahahah gtfoh she aged like a grey prune
Indeed😻🥰🤩
Facts 💯
Russonda Holley Happens. Happens. Bye
Coming to America is one of Eddie Murphy's best movies. Enough said.
it is one of the best comedies ever
@CURTIS HAWKINS Ok.
One of the best but not thee best. Harlem night is a straight classic
@@stebbiej That movie never interested me.
FACTS!
I love her , she’s iconic.
Shari is such a beauty! I always love seeing her in that veil and wedding dress...breathtaking! I admire the strength it took to overcome her hardships.
I love coming to American it’s one of my favourite movies
bass reemer I’ve never seen Harlem Nights before but I’ll check it out thanks for telling me about it and I’ll definitely be watching coming to America again at this time for sure
Me too lol
"Its a d*mn shame, what they did to that dog"!.... 😭
Our restaurant was on fire in New Orleans one day. We were all standing outside when this pretty lady walked up and asked us what was going on. One of my coworkers bust out, it's the Queen of Zamunda! I said, Shari Headly? She said, no one ever knows my name. She talked with us for at least 30 minutes. She took pictures with several people. She looks the exact same! Very memorable night.
I also met here and yes she was extremely personable and absolutely physically beautiful in person.
Sandi Richard lol
I also met her and her son at a kids amusement park in Los Angeles in 2000.
love her dimples :)
Taking pics with a celeb while “our” restaurant was on fire. Ok...
My childhood crush. I can't wait to see this sequel. It wouldn't be the same without the original Lisa. No one can pull off that character. 😍
I am happy for Shari. I hope she gets a lot of movie rolls. She deserves it. You never hear anything negative about her.
And she hasn't lost her looks in all those years!
My sister went to Bayside HS in Queens with her, and she was so excited that someone she went to school with was in a movie.
Yeah my aunt was in her class and they was good friends until she got that part in coming to America
She had no talent and was stuck up AF
I went to bayside high in the early 80's so it's good to hear about others to went to the school(bayside commodores.
So did i. She was a stuck BITCH!
HER EYES ARE SO INCREDIBLY SWEET AND ADORABLE!!!
MAY GOD BLESS AND KEEP SHARI HEADLEY THROUGHOUT THE ETERNITIES!!
One of my favorite childhood movies, my twin Lisa Mcdowell 💖👑
Coming to America is my all time favourite movie.
Craig Browne , it is a super classic comedy caper.
Craig Browne mine too
Craig Browne Goodness. Hi. Yes. No
steven hosea ???
It was cool but how dafuc did they not pay the star?!?!?!?!
She’s going to be in Coming to America 2 Eddie will make sure she gets a nice paycheck
Michelle Preston will
Michelle Preston nope... women act like they don’t need men,so she can get her own nice paycheck. Not his responsibility 😂
@@mr.logicandfactsunapologet4926 Does she act like she doesn't need men? Did I miss something or that a generalization? Get dumped recently Jerry? Don't worry, you'll find the right woman, if you're into women.
the fact she only made 45k in a 288 million making movie is just criminal! she was one of the leading roles.....
Jerry Anderson *Amen.*
In my eyes, she will always be the 'Queen of Queens!'
This woman, Angela Bassett, Halle Berry, Stacey Dash, LisaRaye McCoy, Gabrielle Union Wade etc are the pure definition of black dont crack❤💪💯
@Ichigo Uzumaki TF that has to do with their outter beauty?
@pink girl No her parents are from Trinidad.
Stacey Dash says she's not black lol.
Everything y’all said has nothing to do with this brothers point lol...they still all fine, y’all lame lol
@@terrellhill4870 THANK YOU FAM! Thats all I was saying smh
She is one of the nicest people you ever wanna meet..she's still beautiful, she's my mom's next door neighbor..
....thanks for chronicling the importance of my cousin Lisa McDowell and the rest of my Family!
Lol
$45,000 is shameful and a disgrace. She should of at least made six figures. She barely made more than all the extras in the movie. She had a major role in the film. The movie made over 250 million dollars. Come on Eddie do better.
Umm thats Hollywood. Plenty mega actors have taken far less for big roles either as favors or to get bigger roles in the future
Ask Lunell about Eddie. Ask Dave, ask Chris, Ask Martin, shit ask Wesley! He's ALWAYS taken care of his people if he can. People didn't know how C2A would be recieved back then, so even as big as Eddie was, it was an ALL black cast (basically). He's not responsible for the deal her agent made! Nobody knew it would be a box office smash! Btw, he got shit for that in fkn Boomerang!!!! No whites in it. Because , you know, theres NEVER been all WHITE films.....?
But, yeah, he's not known for shittin on his own, so chill wit that
@@dwayneturner9395 You cant tell me that Eddie wasn't watching his bottom line. This was Eddie's baby. He made all the casting decisions, and salaries. I just can't swallow the fact that he didn't know what she was making, nevertheless the deal she made with her agent. The less he paid out the more he got at the end of the day.
I'm sure she got a much better pay check that she's satisfied with for the sequel. So I'm really happy for her.
gdguyton516 gotta think 45,000 was alot of money in 1988
You forgot she played as Steve Harveys wife in the movie Johnsons Family Vacation with Cedric the Entertainer Vannesa Williams Lil Bow Wow and Solange Knowles
Dojah Bantu Nysut Netrket I’m shol like how did they forget that??
@@khaliahlaura probably because she had no lines in that movie
I remember seeing her and Vanessa Calloway on The Steve Harvey show together. They both were wearing their costumes from Coming To America. They also played Steve Harvey's wives in Johnson Family Vacation and Love Don't Cost A Thing.
@Charlene Warren yeah she did the dance but I think it was fucked up she didn't have no dialog
That's right!! I almost forgot about that. She is really good in Comedies.
She played that role in Coming to America!
So many people from back in the day were screwed over financially. It’s no way she should have only received 45,000 dollars for that role in residual income smh!
I am surprised...
Seems that way, we all thought if the movie/sitcom/show was doing well, the actors were as well, but we've learned over the years that everything that glitters ain't gold, plenty of actors and actresses were screwed over & the films made MILLIONS!!!😟
@john. How do you know what she was trying to do to get work? Where can we find info on what she did and didn’t do?
Yeah, that's pretty messed up.
I'm with u I think they done her wrong as fuck. They would have to come off a lot if 💰 ahead of time 4 disrespecting me.
The narrator sound bored and sleepy.
You must be new here
Manifest Health&Wealth Actually Yes. Problem?
Hi. I agree that he could increase his energy level while sounding professional. I appreciate that he's not super hyped; however, he could still put more energy in his voice or use an upper register (I know he's not singing people). He's speaking in a low voice and I'm confident that he could speak in a higher tone and he would sound less interested.
They need a Brother like me to do narrating but comedy hype be fronting on me and I stay reviewing their shows on my Instagram
🤣🤣 That's actually spot on.
What a beauty! I always wondered what happened to her.
KevonnieElaine you are a beauty 2. 😉
I cannot wait to see the sequel of Coming to America! What a classic movie that will live on for years to come. I love every actor and actress in the movie. Lisa was such a class act!❤️
I would see her on The Haves& Have Nots and then one day I'm like shhhhit that the girl from coming to America
The DA that Katherine Cryer shot.
Oh shit im a die hare #HAHN fan and forgot all about her playing jennifer Salisan lol now i feel unworthy lol
Are you talking about that prosecutor lady?
@@genghiskahn1989 yep
@@gloriousjohnson1807 Katherine didn't care either after she had shot her. Katherine's crazy.
She said the Wayan brothers helped her out... that was a great thing and that’s why I love them to.
Same
Yaaaasss! can't wait for 'Coming To America II' thanks for the update!!!
Thanks for sharing Coming to America two can't wait to see it.
Can't wait for part 2! Still my all time favorite! Classic!
I dont believe part 2 will ever be made. Having said that, i LOVED the first one. I loved the scene where Eddie's walking down the singing " To be loved!"
Her and her dark skin sister was BAAADDDDD!
@Kevin Gonzales Shari Headley is appearing in it.
Maybe they were adopted by the McDowells.
HATE is a sign of ENVY yes she was!!
@Kevin GonzalesIt's possible to have siblings of a different skin tone.
@Kevin GonzalesYes it could be that they have a different parent. Its still possible for them to have the same parents too. I was best friends with two fraternal twins. One was light skin like Chris Brown, but the other was dark brown. Their parents were married. Even if mom stepped out that will still be rare to have different dad's.
It's great to see everyone together again thank you sir for the great reporting
My friend Dale had the biggest crush on her!! You couldn't tell him nothing.
WOW, I didn't expect any responses. Thanks YT fam! ❤
leeluv96 story of my life. Only that Semmi got my Lisa
Dale was a smart man with good taste.
Dam right!
Had? We Still do! Lol
@@marc2284 I haven't talked to him about her in years, I should bring up old stuff. LOL
She is still as beautiful as the day they start filming
I know that there's a GOD ahh SOMEWHERE ahh 😂
Stawwwp😂😂😂😂😂!

He helped Gilligan get off the island.....
Yes I loved her role in Coming To America! It's a blessing that through all she has been through she is back for Coming To America 2! ❤💜🙏
I just watched Coming To America the other day. Perfect timing! 🙂
She was Always one of my favorites
She's going to forever be my lady.
Waiting for part 2 can't wait!!!
She lives in my neighborhood. I see her all the time at the bagel shop and grocery store. She still looks the same!
U luckly
Cali Cooley what state ca or ga?
That is pretty cool!!
She is still Beautiful.
I remember my first time seeing her was in Johnny Gill's music video back in the 80z called "Half Crazy". Beautiful lady...
The first time I saw here, she captured my heart ♥️
Thanks for sharing that! Inspired
My friend saw her in Santa Monica a few years ago. He said he recognized her and she was very nice.
Side note. That shearling coat she wore on the train was DOPE. I've been looking for the male version of that for decades. 🤔
I loved that shearling coat too.
Great video man. We appreciate it.
She still beautiful and has a beautiful personality 🌹.
Loved her, she is gorgeous!!
*Leave Coming to America alone. Not everything need a remake. Let the classic remain classic, don't ruin it*
denz310 Thank you 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
It’s a sequel but a remake
@@animmigrantperspective3042 I know, but it still apply.
Yeah, I do not need an old Akeem
Right!!! Plus with most melanted movies they always want to wait way to long while everyone dramatically aged!! Shits played out.
Love the vids bro thank you !
Finally part 2. So happy she’s in it
She’s like fine wine. Gets better with age. 🤤
HarrisonModel I saw her on IMDB and she is still fine #beautifullady
She was finnnnnnneeeeeeee!
Still is
Reginald Tyler facts
Those lips are the best I've ever seen.
Kory Green On God, but I was weakened by that smile
She’s very beautiful...
Amazing Job! Very informative.
I JUST ... seen a video vlog of hers where she's in a Walmart hanging out with her friends and joking around having a great time. I can't wait to see the movie.
She needs her own TH-cam channel and patron. She could probably promote her own private label product for women really easily. I think people would buy her book as well. She would be a good Vlad tv interview candidate maybe. The financial failure could be spun into success if she started some sort of paid service for up and coming actresses. We had no clue Shari didn't caked up from Coming to America, I'd like to believe that we all would have supported if we knew. Shari was one of our early 90s crushes for sure :)
Great video very interesting, she's has determination and persistence! People like that are the reason why we love watching back stories they in itself would make a great movies🎬🎥📷📹 showcasing her highs and lows👍👍👍
Great cover story, of an good ole American Girl. Thanks for sharing
I am in total love with this woman that smile and her eyes melt my soul!!! 😍😍😍😍
GOD continue to bless this beautiful woman 😍😍🙏🏾🙏🏾
She is about to be GOOD, “Coming to America” 2 is gonna make a Billion when it comes out. It will be Eddie’s highest grossing film yet, might give the Avengers a challenge on opening weekend.
I agree. This is film is gonna break box office records. I predict it'll gross more than half a billion at the box office.
That's if this coronavirus bullshit doesn't last until this movie hits the theater. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞🙏🙏🙏
The Damn Diz I’m pretty sure the virus will be gone by December. I’ll be really shocked if it’s not gone by then
Jay Belafonte so why wasn’t she good from the 288 or how ever much millions? What’s going to change now?
@@1Yogaboy thank you. their logic doesn't make a lick of sense. there is also absolutely zero guarantee the sequel will be half as successful as the original.
My childhood crush 😍😍😍...she STILL could get it, especially since I'm grown now. Still looks good
WOW!
Yassss my dude is back
Damn, it took me years to realize how beautiful she is.
Shari Headley:still looks amazing and fantastic..still got it and looking fly...
She is so beautiful, so underrated!!
This is a great eye opener to everyone that celebrities are people just the same with their ups and downs. Also there is a lot of wisdom to be taken in here contractually as an entertainer that you could read between the lines to make sure that you and your family are safe monetarily on and off screen. God Bless Everyone and Stay SAFE!
She’s was on tyler perry’s “The Haves and the haves not” for two seasons 😊
Beautiiful Jai Loved her in that role. Tyler should have never killed her off
Glad Tyler gave her a chance. She's a great actress. I'm glad she's still standing!
Black don't crack , still slayin!
Glad to hear she's going to be in the sequel.
These videos are dope!
Beautiful woman!!!! Murphy said he wrote the whole movie ( w/o dialogue) in 2 hours!
She was Hakeem's quuuueeeeeeen to beeeeeeeeee 🎵 😆
S Flow LOL
Free from infection!!!!
Greetings great prince, presenting Miss Imone Azzi. Lol
*One and only DESIIIIIIIIIIIRE 🎶*
I was just watching this movie! Thanks brother, I am happy glad to have subscribed. Stay safe yall, fearless and put God first!
Really enjoyed
It was the innocense when she was younger that attracted us.
And she still look really good!!
I'm a big fan of Lisa,saw the first coming to america and loved it,cant wait to see the second one
there's so much enthusiasm in your voice 😭
I hope she gets paid more this time
Right!
Hope she negotiates money on the back end too so she gets bigger residuals

Hey, who gon’ clean up all these flowers?!
Everybody was on Miami Vice🤣🤣. Great actors proving ground. The good old days!
Headley will always & forever be icon of Lisa Mc Dowell in this lifetime. She is & still a gorgeous woman that I admired growing up from a teenager to adult hood😍.
Play had a good woman and took advantage of just that shes a beautiful woman & mother may she continue be blessed I don't understand how you wouldn't want to take care of your "Child' 🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
How can you say she is/was a good woman?
It's always 2 sides. Play has changed, a lot anyways..
You getting one side.
Dime, straight up undeniable
Andrew Schwapp Goodness. Goodness. Goodness. Bye
steven hosea ?
Well I can’t wait to see part two
WHAT HAPPENED TO PATRICE McDOWELL???
ALLISON DEAN didn’t want to be in Coming to America 2... WHY?
I saw some other video about her, I think she just wants to leave that life behind.
Still looks good too and I think she wants to stay that way.
If you escape Hollyweird in one piece, consider yourself lucky and don't look back!
I would love to see her video!
@@ngeri06 Just do a search on TH-cam. If it does the normal amount of spying on us, it should actually save you the hassle and start recommending some videos anyway.
I found it, thanks.
@@ngeri06 Cool
Beautiful Lady has Not aged since 💕🥰🥰🥰
I don't know, COMING TO AMERICA is too great a movie for a sequel. I watched a lot of great actors try and revive characters that made them famous decades prior and that shit NEVER works...I'm keeping my hopes up.
word!! they should just leave it alone. too many quotables from that movie. No matter what they do with the sequel, sadly it will never be good enough, The bar has been set too high with the original movie
If they woulda came out with the sequel in the 90's or even the early 2k it woulda failed but in this decade is the perfect time to drop a sequel because of social media the evolution of technology they have so much material now especially with the years that went by they have alot in the story line plus all of the cast members is still alive so tbh they couldn't picked a more perfect time plus I heard the script was better than the original theres cast members that said that they wouldn't of signed on if the script was garbage but they were surprised on how much more funny the sequel is they read the script and was sold
Mick Jae lets just hope and pray 🙏🏽
@@mickjae6387 , my fingers are crossed...I been a fan of EDDIE since his days on SNL to his 1st movie 48hrs...I'm even a fan of sum of his more "not so popular movies"...I hope everything you say is right.
@@bigbabysld I was nervous as well but if u really think about it Eddie Murphy is very careful on what roles he chooses he knows this part of his career is cementing his final legacy he's had too many flops to mess up this I feel like he wouldn't of even done coming to America 2 if he felt like it wouldn't be as good remember he doesn't need the money hes doing it cus he's confident in this sequel
My favorite movie ( classic) she’s soo gorgeous 😍💛😍 still!!
I'm ready for Coming to America 2 probably the greatest comedy movie ever
Coming to America is golden. Never get tire of it
