Congrates,but the gown is not making sence to ♍ε̲̣ just saying.
she should have ditched the tights!
RE: she should have ditched the tights!
NO SHE COULDNT. THE TIGHTS ARE NOT FOR FASHION DECORATION — ITS QUITE COLD HERE IN THE WESTERN WORLD THIS TIME OF YEAR. ANNOYINGLY COLD…YOU JUST HAVE TO TAKE PRECAUTION…ESPECIALLY AS ONE NOT USED TO THE WEATHER.
You’re damn right jackie!! they don’t understand how hideous the cold can be down here. Thats the best she could wear, it would have been more hideous had she worn black tights either. We blacks unlike the whites do not have a brown coloured tights to close up to match our skin colour….If a lighter skinned person wore the tights, ppl wouldn’t have even noticed she wore tights. O! well it’s not her fault there aint tights made to match her skin colour. so babe, you rock! And anybody criticizing the tights is ignorant
in North Carolina?
she just ruined the dress with those dreadful tights, wtf was she thinking, i hate when pple who are supposed to know better make such silly mistakes, sans the tights dt dress would have been gorgeous………Mcheww
Puke-inducing tights! Just yucky!
It is not tights..it is sheer white stockings and I think it look good.
go girl
Congrats Susan. Those tights spoit what would have been an otherwise perfect outfit.
susan honey you are a great actress, but i got one word for you………whity alien.
Congratulations Susan! But why is the event abroad and not here in Nigeria? I f its supposed to be a nollywood event why host where majority of those in the industry cannot attend? Just wondering.
Y did she use thight? Congrats
A big Congratulations Susan,and for the dress its perfectly in order.U rock my dear.
Her stockings dont look that bad, her legs are long lean and slim. I acyually think she pulled it off. It would have looked weird on bare skin.
congrats gurl
aww, she looks so happy. Congrats 2 her. she should have gone bare legged sha, but i must say, she looks good and radiant (just needs a change in hair-stylist/hair extension buyer-fixer choice). I really enjoyed her acting in that film, so i’m glad she got good recognition for her work.
Beautiful dress, but why spoil it with the shiny pantyhose? If you need to cover scars on those beautiful legs a nude ptyhs would have done just fine.
The dress was not shabby at all but i didnt like the tights.
first of black people shud neva be caught dead with tights like that…and it is a big fashion NO to wear tights with open toe shoes…that look wudda been so hot without those tights because that is a very nice dress
Lets focus on the award and leave d dress pleeeeaaaasssseeeee..ahahah…its too much criticism already *hiss*
congrats and nice outfit!!!
I think she looks lovely and shows of her great body
Congrats. I wounder why people enjoy nudity. You deserve what you got.
those tights though
She messed up that gorgeous Jovani dress with her horrible tight!!! Gahh Lee! A black tights could have been easier on the eyes, or NO tights at all! The shoes, on point, Can never go wrong in a Jovani dress, but Gahh lee, those tights! Come on sister!!!
It’s like the order of the night were Jovani dresses.. the lady beside her in the first picture is also wearing a Jovani.
conggrats susan.u desrve it…wonder why u haven’t gotten one all dis while os u re such a good actress….hmmmm,but those pantsss..No no no.luv ur dress
Raleigh, is in the South, its not that cold there, she messed up her Sherri Hill illusion dress in those tights!!!
When will people ever focus on progress? You guys leave the panty hose,mores o they were nude ones,if you have a problem bring your own fashion to the book! Haters! You go gurl,you rock that dress ..you have always rocked the red carpet,@ truth writing rubbish only you know it’s a jovanni dress lol just to knw it’s an insider…where’s yours? Lol thankGod Bella makes us see our beautiful stars always becos if it’s for people like you we will never come here… Go girl they can’t stop your shine,happy you won the award
Pls u do no wear giovani with underwear, its completely sheer save for the embellishments so if u will fail d “pencil test”, don’t bother. Black women should never ever wear sheer/nude tights, talk less of WHITE GLOSSY tights. Was she tryin to look golden being that she was up for an award? Ended up looking like an ice cream cone, white sequins
+ gold shoes???
Big lol @jackie’s comment, making reference to “the western world” clearly shows dat u have not been thru even MM2. If u’ve been to the western world u would knw its not so cold now, neither will sheer tights protect u from d weather. Besides, Susan travels pretty often enough to brave d weather for a few mins on d red carpet
@haters, do u come to BN for progress reports? And how does progress correlate with seeing celebs on BN?
I don’t know where it is abroad you live, but hey! its almost end of Autumn and its a cold weather ight now, and not everyone can brave the cold by wearing a mini dress such as that! stop been mean speaking. It must not be winter before you can acknowledge that it is cold. If she does not live abroad, it does not matter how often she visits…….she may never get used to Autumn cold, because not even all the people who live here are used to it even the whites themselves!!!!
Seriously??? all y’all notice are her tights?? SMH!! i suggest that if y’all wanna critize then do it concstructively since everyone is now a fashion critic. God help us all.
Congrats Susan, Jah has blessed your hustle!
she is/looks beautiful, tights or no tights! congrats hun. x
the tights were on point the only thing in d “how do i look” stuff is just the dull colour of shoe she wore, a brighter colour would have been better.keep it up!!!
LUV U BOO
LUV U LUV U
If only eyes could kill or words people say could kill people would have been long gone…but at least there are a few good ones and may God bless you all for that ,good or bad Susan the sky is your limit… Pls holla at us wen you get back to naija Jare,make dem leave you rest ooo…
Well not a fan of Susan Peters but I think she did a good job in bursting out…although I hated the movie cuz it was way below my expectations but SP pulled of her role quite well! So congratulations =]
an award most deserved. really loved her in bursting out.
I love everytin about u dear from your dress sense to ur smile.keep it up.
Yes she looks Fab
