BROADWAY HONORS
Sunday night was the place to be if you're a Broadway star. Fantasia, Vanessa l. Williams, and Usher are just some of the R&B acts-turned-stage actors that hit up New York City's Radio Music Hall for the 61st Annual Tony Awards.
Broadway vet and "Dreamgirls" star Anika Noni Rose, current star of "Starter Wife" was there too:
Anika also presented an award alongside Donny Osmond.
Ben Vereen and his godson Usher presented an award:
Ben's daughter Kabara also attended the event and Phylicia Rashad walk the red carpet:
Whereas Usher bought along Tameka:
In the audience, Usher kick it with his godfather Ben Vereen:
Fantasia performed a song from "The Color Purple":
And here's a clip of her performance of "I'm Here":
She did her thing on the stage, didn't she?
"Ugly Betty" star Vanessa Williams (between her and Anika, they're one of the best-dressed females on the red carpet):
Broadway couple Taye Diggs and his wife Idina Menzel:
The pair acted as presenters for the evening. Read up on who won a Tony here.

I went to go see Usher in "Chicago" and I was surprised he carry the role off quite well.
Why is Tameka showing us all but her lower teeth gums! I mean damn! Usher doesn't even look that happy to be photographed. Things that make me go hmm....
