Lalah Hathaway Is Up For Grammy

The talent and love for Jazz and Rhythm & Blues was already present in the house that Lalah Hathaway was born in to courtesy of her dad Donny Hathaway – the famous versatile vocalist who performed with the Soul and Rhythm & Blues genre – and her mommy Eulaulah Hathaway; the talented and trained classical vocalist. So with a strong musical and vocals foundation set for her by her parents, it would be only a matter of time before Lalah Hathaway would shine and radiate her gifted voice and musical abilities in front of the world.

Born on the 16th of December in the year 1968, Lalah Hathaway hails from the city of Chicago in the state of Illinois. The very same state that current United States of America’s President, Barack Obama, represented in the United States Senate prior to becoming the leader of the American people.

And perhaps that time has now arrived as Lalah Hathaway finds herself living the dream of seeing her name make it to the list of nominees for the best vocalist in the Rhythm & Blues category at the upcoming Grammy Awards to be held on the 31st of January. If the Grammy nomination translates in to an actual award for Lalah Hathaway, it will prove to be a huge uplift in her already successful and well poised music career.

One thing that struck me about Lalah Hathaway was her looks. Even at forty one years old, she looks a whole lot younger than that age. I gotta find her secret to looking young!

Clinton Kelly goes behind the scenes of 'Miss America'

It's the 250th episode of the show and Kelly says he's got one more year on his contract. But he's not ready to go anywhere. "I'll keep doing the show as long as they want me. I like it. Stacy and I have pretty much a belly laugh every day."

On hiatus now, Kelly has been running around all week working another show: Miss America: Behind the Curtain, airing tonight on TLC at 10, right after What Not To Wear. Earlier this week, he pretended he was a contestant.

Clinton Kelly says that one of the worst dressed women ever to set foot on TLC's What Not To Wear appears on tonight's episode (9 p.m. ET).

"I generally lump the women on What Not To Wear into three different categories," says Kelly, who has starred on the show for five years with Stacey London. "They're either frumps, sluts or freaks. Crizti (Walsh, a disc jockey from Norfolk, Va.,) had a little bit of each one."

"It was fun to have Rush Limbaugh firing questions at me. And Vivica Fox! She's more intimidating than Rush," he says. "She's beautiful and intense - that's a scary combination." He says they gave him an 8 out of 10 score.

Other celeb judges at Saturday night's Miss America 2010 show include: Olympian and DWTS champ Shawn Johnson, comedian Paul Rodriguez and American Idol favorite Brooke White. Mario Lopez will host and Clinton will be a correspondent for the show, which airs live from Las Vegas at 8 ET on TLC.
