And don't forget her versions of "Private Joy" and "1999".
Her voice really is not impressing, but on those pics she's really beautiful (though you can see that she had some plastic surgery like all other Jacksons)

lol...I think alot of us weren't sure if it was really her because we're not used to seeing her this good.In the past,she looked too "made up",like a clown with too much make-up on.On this photo,she looks really,really good.

And thank God she finally got rid of that long,curly,out-of-control black wig (or weave)

Yeah Vinny, I was comparing that EXACT picture of Shanice with Latoya's picture in mind

things done changed

I had that Album.She had a Jam on there Called "Betcha Gonna need My Lovin".but no Comment on that Chessy "Heart Don't Lie" or Re-Make of "Private Joy".

She looks pretty!

Y'all, I worked a shoot for her in the mid-90's to sub for a friend who was ill, and oh my LORD if she dosen't look so nice now! She didn't look "bad" then, but she defintely had some "extreme" make-up preferences back in the day. The thing is, she is definitely a light-skinned black woman (vs. that lighter hue she used to try pull off), only, she was WAYYY into veryveryveryvery whitish pancake make-up at the time, with heavy nose and cheek contour- it was a thing where, we hired a great hair & make-up guy ( who was doing all the fashion mags from S. America like VOGUE) to come in there and do her UP, and he was BRILLIANT! He played up her gorgeous honey colored skin, he lightened up those eyes, he had that girl looking like "pick-a-model" from your favorite magazine and MISS THING WOULD HAVE NONE OF IT! When he was done, she politely said thank you and proceeded to draw black contouring on her nose and cheeks to the point of looking, well, extreme... you know hair and make up nearly fainted when she picked up his brush and...


Anyway, this more natural approach to her make-up makes her look so much younger! Man, if nothing else, Joe and Katherine made some pretty babies between them- it makes me kinda miss the way her brother used to look before he started his "transformation". It's such a shame he didn't realize how attractive he was (as he moved from his Off The Wall to his Thriller days)...

No, no, Miss Mia trust me, she really IS an attractive woman in person, once you get under ALL of that make-up she used to wear! Her real hair was shoulder lenghth (and what some of you might remember the older black generations referring to as "good hair"). I mean, at most, all the girl needed was a touch of Gentle Treatment- not even OPTIMUM Super! But she wanted some really BIG attachement in her hair that reminded me of Dolly Parton back in the 70's! I guess because she was living and socializing in Las Vegas, and they do go for that overdone look out there- I'm just still in shock that she let someone TOUCH her face without trying to redo it! She was lovely (though she still carried herself as a JACKSON and ALL that implies), EXCEPT when it came to her damned hair and make-up. At the time, we just didn't get it...

Man, how is she pretty? The self loathing fakeness that goes into a messed up nose job like that could never be attractive to my eyes anyway.

some of the responses on this thread are priceless. funniest thread of the day priceless. 5 stars!

I wasn't expecting her to actually look human, let alone decent. Good work, whoever did her cut-up job. Now if only Michael would use her surgeon.
