Syleena is so underrated...talented, a true singer...your authenticity comes thru...bless you!

[@jackiebanksandEviepoo]

Syleena brings such logic and discipline and love to the show and to her own life. Happy Birthday Queen

[@toniolamar5860]

I just love the support and love Syleena received for her bday! She’s definitely a legend and deserves her flowers now! 🥰

Y'all forgot about Michael Ealy. He's been quiet for awhile but he's certainly has a significant body of work as a light skinned black man in Hollywood.

[@darealgem1]

Even he kinda boxed himself into a corner, being only cast as the lover boy, either the struggling dude or the broke guy or maybe the cheating husband or the one being dumped. And now recently a stalker in same lover boy movies. He really needs to branch out. He's stuck in his fine eyes cute face cast and as he ages, the beauty is beginning to fade. We need to get into mainstream, just saying🤷🏾‍♀️

[@divalova34]

You're right, I thought of him too.

[@s8450631]

Michael Ealy is a non factor. 👎🏾

[@flashsanders1331]

He's my number one pick to portray Jesus, wolly hair, bronze skin and blueish 👀 eyes, ain't everyone happy.

[@ShyXoxo1920]

Even Hill Harper but he’s not in that much I don’t think.

[@constancew2790]

Syleena: “I’m not following the blind. We not going to do that”. That part!!!!! Happy Born Day Queen🎂🎂🎂

[@dianemarie4399]

I love Syleena she's such a wonderful person, I've met her in person and she's super friendly. Today was a great show! Love Claudia too, she's so real and down to earth.

Whatever you do, keep Syleena happy! She adds such charisma and intellect to this show! Happy birthday!

Syleena is a standard. Glad she’s finally receiving her flowers.

Chilee I cried from that beginning tribute the ladies to Syleena, that was so sweet and the love was so transparent. Syleena is my favorite on the show for her intelligence & common sense. I hope she has a blessed bday!

Syleena deserves it such a regal spirit in the industry! Love her! And she’s gorgeous, and so classy! I love her! She’s down to earth but has that cussing spirit! I love it! It’s nice to see that stereotype that Black women be so quickly dismissed! Everyone one of these women on this panel have been supportive of each other publicly and I love it! I’m so proud of it all! Stay lovely Queens!

[@patbone8046]

Happy, Happy Earth Strong Syleena Johnson!! You're the REAL Queen (no shade to the others love you all) I always look forward to your opinion on all topics you ladies discuss, you are always right on point, I love how you think before opening your mouth, and when you do it's always worth listen to what you have to say! Your a gorgeous classy woman, a great mother & a loving wife....since I don't know you personally, I came to the last 2 conclusion by listening to your co-host & your friends who spoke so highly of you!! Sis, I pray you have an amazing, phenomenal B-day full of mad fun filled with God's grace, Favor & Blessings!!!! Happy B-day Syleena💐🎂🍷🍹🎉🎊🎇🎆🎁🍸

Happy Birthday Syleena!! Hope your day was fab-u-lous like u my dear! Now Ms Vanessa E. Williams is still so gorgeous and I just realized both she and Vivica A Fox were in SOUL FOOD - the movie for Vivica and I believe Vanessa played her role in the tv version on Showtime .

[@adrobinson777]

@MArie Livingston - you’re spot on! God Bless you Syleena HBD!

[@joshuaafrifa8134]

Yes it was such a missed opportunity. I really wanted to know Vivica‘s opinion on Vanessa‘s role as Maxine Chadway

The queens look gorgeous in red. Vivica rocking that top knot. Lisa Raye’s hat is fire. Claudia is glowing with that shiny flowy hair and birthday girl Syleena with those curls just outstanding. The tributes the ladies paid to you goes for us viewers also.

[@valerieproctor7366]

I don't agree with Tyrese. Terence Howard is an amazing actor who deserves every role he got. And Tyrese as a darkskin guy, you didn't do so bad either. Your career has always been big! But at the same time your no Terrance Howard as far as acting is concern. He's a brilliant actor!

[@flashsanders1331]

Terrance Howard is. Golden Globe, Oscar nominated, received multiple award winning actor. What is Tyrese talking about⁉️🤷🏾‍♀️

[@awhite6317]

I love Syleena Johnson! I’ve loved her music from day 1 and I love seeing her personality on the tv shows she has done. She’s a real one.

[@khandibaugh23]

Thanks SO much for the Tyrese comments. They are two completely different actors. Also, there are way more brown and dark skinned successful actors and actresses in Hollywood than light skinned. Do a Black Hollywood complexion flowchart of the most well known. I’m glad somebody finally said it. So tired of the black community perpetuating colorism!

[@traceytracey3756]

Tyrese is just a crybaby.

Syleena is giving me Kelly LeBrock from Weird Science vibes. Love it. She's always gorgeous though. Inside & out..

I'm all for the invoice for the no shows. People are so inconsiderate when it comes to weddings. I'm amazed that they actually RSVP'd, but to do so and not show up and not say they'renot coming??? Yep, charge them.

Terrence is the better actor between the two,I think it's interesting how Blk men only speak out about /confirm colorism, when it affects them ,yet have no idea what the hell Blk women are talking about,when we state these exact claims..very tone deaf pun intended
