I can’t help but cry when Valerie started to sing. And then that shot of Nick crying in Sydney Poitier’s arms just has me ugly crying. Surely both Valerie and Nick had to know that Nick was ill. It gets to me every time. It’s sad that there does not seem to be an effort to keep that energy alive and productive, but I am glad that God led Oprah to do that.

I watched this for the zillionth time in 2023 and I still cry at the beauty of this Legends Ball. They all received their flowers while they were alive to smell them and enjoy them. Every time I rewatch this, I get chills and cry because so many of the Legends featured are no longer with us. God bless you Oprah for following Gods instructions on how to properly thank these women for their contributions. I will cherish this Legends Ball dvd now and forever! In loving memory of the beautiful Legends who left us!

[@terrancejovan4825]

I think that because Pattie does indeed know the lord.. She lost all 3 of her sister very close together(2 of them within 6 months of each other if I'm not mistaken) as well as her mother and father. Not to mention Luther Vandross who was her bestfriend in the world. If that doesn't make you sit down and find the lord.. I don't know what will.. In Pattie's words ; "I've been looking for Jesus a long time.. And I'm not tired yet.."

Patti killed it, but I was most moved by Valerie Simpson's part. I loved what she sung..."For the change, from this day, we won't walk the same. We gone walk taller. We gone think higher. We gone be better." I just loved that so much. It moved me immensely, and plus, Ms. Simpson has an incredibly fine and powerful voice. No one mentions her here and I think she very much so deserves to be.

My wife is passed and an resting in the arms of my beloved God. But she shared with me the emotional and spiritual richness she felt when she watched Oprah's Legend's Ball. I am just now watching the clips on youtube and tears are flowing uncontrolably down my face. Chills are all over me every single place. I'm moved from within myself to just set here and watch this defining moment in history. There is no way one can really put into words the awesome and profound feeling and gratefulness one feels after seeing something so profound as this. The legend's she honored are legend's in deed. The extremly rich and fruitful heritage of women she honored was just breath taking. And I can only imagine how it couldn't have seemed reality for the yungunnn's.

[@fwoodswoods8873]

I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. It's never easy to lose someone that we love. I couldn't have said it better. Everything that you said, I thought. And though I didn't weep, I sure felt like it. [ But the evening is young] I got touched and moved on all of it. At the risk of sounding like I've got little else to do, I sat though all of them. All of them! Tina turner- 70, the works and I loved them all. This has been a great day!
