I love Melba Moore and she looks great. Katt Williams is a class act for paying for her star on the Hollywood walk of fame.

[@zzizahacallar]

Yep he does so many generous acts.

[@valeriestancil813]

Kay Williams has helped sooooo many people,I don’t care what nobody say, Katt cares about people

[@Leonard-ub8rw]

Katt Williams you one of kind, cheers

[@jackiedavis4298]

ABSOLUTELY 💯

Hi edagdwg God bless this special loving woman a forever loving fan Linda j.peace

[@roseroyce15]

I really appreciate Sherri for always honoring our black legends... And not allowing them to fade into the background. It's up to US to honor our own.

[@terence4427]

Perhaps the most underrated singer in music history. A pure legend.

[@michelleelmore3974]

The song Falling with her holding that note lawd ! Love it still beautiful song

[@marvellespiller63]

Melba Moore holding that note😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

[@slimdude2011]

That was just a sample! She could've held that note longer. I know because I have some of her albums, when she held her notes a long time. It's a special gift that God has given to her.

[@deborahwalton7109]

Melba should be somewhere selling out shows.

[@evonza4858]

She's almost 80 😘she needs to relax and get paid making appearances🥰💜💙💛❤️💚

She did a guest appearance on a cruise I was on 4 years ago. She was fantastic.

Melba is an icon. Happy they recognized her with a star. Well deserved and long overdue.

[@adrianarnold1239]

Thank God for Katt Williams. She really deserved that star. Thank you! Thank you so much. Katt Williams❤❤❤

[@jearl3054]

Katt has done so much for so many people - and now Melba Moore. Yet, all some want to emphasize is the negatives in his life. Congratulations Ms Moore and may Mr Williams be continuously blessed.

[@montraedavis2201]

👏👏👏

[@KevinETaylor]

BOOOOOOOM: SHE STILL GOT IT AND CAN WEAR IT OUT! That note AND the joy behind it.

[@charmainethomas984]

Oh my goodness thank you Sherri for giving Melba her flowers. Love Melba Moore and use to watch that show with Clifton Davis. It was great

[@jearl3054]

This lady like Wendy Williams married an awful man. My friend knew Ms Moore's assistant, who informed us of his adultery and dishonesty before he was exposed and ended up in jail. He really hurt Melba. Well he ended up in jail and Ms Moore has bounced back. What a blessing to her and continued success Mr Katt Williams.

[@JanetM05]

Who does not love Melba Moore✌🏽♥️😇

[@peggywilkins1358]

Thank you Katt Williams for what you did for Melba Moore🎉🎉❤🙏

[@peachesandcream3415]

This lady is an icon and a living legend! Wow! I grew up on her music! Thanks sherri

[@pousseandco]

I don't know why I'm so emotional seeing Melba right now. She really is an ICON in R&B! I saw her waaayyyyy back in the day in New Orleans at the Essence Fest. I was staying in the same hotel as her and I just stared at her because it was so unexpected to run into her at breakfast.

[@jackiedavis4298]

FACTS 😉

[@jearl3054]

I was such a fan of hers and Clifton Davis. They had a variety show "The Melba Moore-Clifton Davis Show" - it was wonderful. I was so disappointed it didn't last much longer. I wish her more success in moving on with her life.

[@JustPerusing]

Yes. I remember trying to hold that note in her song "Falling" and failing every single time. LOL

[@oholm09]

​@JustPerusing it's no 1 r&b hit

[@jacquelineperry8515]

Katt raised the right way to respect his elder.katt is a man that cares more than just about Katt the man has a good heart and heart of gold

[@simplyjeweltv]

Love Melba and thanks for having her on here🎉

[@anthonycharles8388]

Sherri I thank you for honoring and spotlighting her and so many others.

[@fti1228]

Loved her so much in Fighting Temptations 😂❤

[@TheeRoyalVirgo]

When she called that girl a tramp 😭

[@theronedawson3236]

I am blessed to know that Ms Melba Moore is still alive and well. What a voice.

[@argerinejordan4703]

Love Melba Moore 😍😍😍 I love that song, "Falling" and she can hold that note!

[@cynthialewis6895]

Yessssssss

[@winterdame307]

Sherri, thank you for recognizing our Black queens and their amazing accomplishments! I know that they are so grateful. As a blsck woman, I am more than elated to see Black women come together in true sisterhood. This is long overdue. That past crabs-in-a-bucket mentality, jealousy, resentment that have surfaced in the past, should be left in the past! Bless you Melba and Sherri! ❤

[@staciadasinga]

So Happy for Her. She’s trooped through some really challenging times! ❤️❤️👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@Katherine24246]

Such a strong beautiful voice. Very talented legendary lady. I still love listening to her duet with Freddie Jackson, "Just a Little Bit More."

[@RBS_]

...Melba ALMOST became the first Woman to replace HERSELF on the R&B charts; she hit #1 R&B Dec. 1986 w/ "Just A Little Bit..." (w/ Freddie), then Janet Jackson's "Control" hit #1 (1 week), then "Candy", by Cameo (2 weeks, Jan., 1987), then, Melba's "Falling"! ..she got 1 week, to be replaced by....Freddie Jackson, w/ "Have You Ever Loved Somebody"!

[@montraedavis2201]

I love it when the Icons get their 💐She looks and sounds amazing!! Thank you for having her on👏👏

[@jessicacalloway5783]

I counted a 19 second note. She still got it!! Love Melba❤

[@19kameleon82]

Nothing. Just a casual 20 second note. I live 🙌🏿

[@sandystewart2234]

I love her personality she seems so down to earth

[@Vincent50]

I love Melba Moore and grew up listening to her since the 70s. Yes Melba still got it!

[@dqmitchell3004]

Sherri, it does my heart good to see how very giving and dedicated to providing a platform for artist, humanitarians, and regular people to showcase their gifts. You do it with such grace, genuine appreciation and joy. You are going to be continuously blessed!

[@virginiapruitt1059]

Oh my goodness! Yes, she was on tv on everything back in the day. She was and still a beautiful lady. ❤

[@brendamckenzie5826]

I am 67 years old now my six grade history teacher took me to broad way and met Ms Melba Moore in person back stage she deserves her flowers such a angel love her

[@tanyawhite4864]

Not sure why I started to cry on Ms. Melba Moore's introduction package but I DID ❤❤

[@JohnDoe-us4tm]

Saw Melba Moore in Wilmington, Delaware about 50 years ago. I didn't actually see her on stage but she had gone outside to the store from the "Grand Opera House!" Blessings. Still , it was exciting to see her in person.

[@deewoo2776]

I have had the privilege and pleasure to see (and meet) her performance at the Catalina Jazz Club in Hollywood some years back and I have to say she is the real deal. After she performed she had a meet and greet with the fans. I had brought about 15 of her CD albums and a Sharpie pen (always have one ready) and asked her to autograph all of my CDs. She was surprised that I brought all of those CDs. She was very kind, gracious and conversational. I can attest and say that Melba Moore can hold a vocal note for 31 seconds. She is a national treasure to alot of us old schoolers. Her current album "Imagine" is a great album. Love me some Melba! Thank you Sherri for having Melba Moore on your show. Please invite more of our BLACK LIVING LEGENDS on your show that we know and love. It will help your ratings for sure and it will ma kg e us viewers very happy. You and i are the same age, we're both Taurus's and both of us lived in "The Jungle" at one time in our lives" . 😀

[@slimdude2011]

Melba Moore can hold a note longer than 31 seconds. On her recordings: Lean on Me and Together Forever, she held those notes longer than 31 seconds.

[@deewoo2776]

I just played both songs Lean On Me and Together Forever from their original albums and just to let you know the long note on Lean On Me is for 20 seconds and the long note on Together Forever is for 24 seconds. If you are referring to a live performance version than that's a different story. If that's the case I know nothing about that. I do know the album versions very well. Type in the search field on KZbin "Melba Moore Sustained A 31 Second Note" and you will see what I am talking about.

[@DOLPHINLADYFOXandPUP]

good on you Kat! thank you for doing this for her, god bless you

Melba Moore was such a part of my 70's upbringing! Back when Black was: Beautiful; Classy; Sassy; Respectful; Courageous; Courteous...and soooo much more. "WE ARE FAMILY". 🙏🏽💪🏾☝🏾🫵🏾 (and...we MEANT it!!) ❤ Thank You Sister Melba--for making US sooo very proud! ❤ And: thank you, Katt Williams; for helping us to remember the things that we should NEVER allow ourselves to forget.

Love how Sherri, Tamron Hall, Whoopi G. showcase these legendary black performers on their shows that are mostly not acknowledged on other talk shows. Melba is a true legend! I remember first hearing her on the Purlie soundtrack we checked out from the library back in early 70s. Loved her and Clifton Davis' show. First supercouple in my young eyes...lol.
