There will be alot more good looking adults if people had the money like celebrities to fix what they think is wrong with their body to meet social standard of beauty.
She, like most stars, have had alot of plastic surgery. Skin lightened, nose job and teeth fixed. The only thing real on her is her hair. People on these sites are so shallow..I've heard that she could be a role model...why? You said nothing about her character, only because she looks good that she can be a role model...You (the parents) need to be your own childrens role models...crazy....She's still would've been cute, without all the plastic surgery.
@ptmich12 FYI Not everybody have plastic surgery these days i'll agree she has had her skin lighten and she haven't had plastic surgery but if she did get her teeth fixed thats nothing wrong.
@williamssheilaj : You are contradicting yourself because having your skin lightened is plastic surgery. I really am not that concerned with what she had done. I just wanted to make a point that celebrities do have alot of plastic surgery done, more than most people. Any black person who gets his/her skin lightened are caught up with color issues and not proud of their natural black skin..

Well I have always thought that rudy was hot even as a child......I don't think there is anything wrong with me thinking she was hot as a child especially since she is like four years older than me!!!!!
Wow! This is trippy! KKP and I are the same age -- and it's funny. It's like looking at how I probably was back then. I wanted to be an actor and a doctor and a bus driver all at the same time. She wanted to be an actress, a doctor and a pilot!
shee di frow up to b a great actress~!! even tho she alredy was 1 on the cosby show. I watch her every morning at 7. she seemes nerrvus talking cuz on the cossby she speaks up. she isz relly great! and cuz she is mor comforttables with the res of da casts
Oh, thank you for mentioning about her being the first child to receive an Emmy at that age. I didn't know about that. Good point.
(I know, you can really tell she was an intelligent 6-year-old. That interviewer's intelligence level, I'm not so sure about. Didn't even know what "precocious" means or that it doesn't really mean "bratty". Oh, well. Keshia's intelligence and charm made up for the dumb [or maybe just under-educated^_~] reviewer's lack thereof. ^_~)
She was adorable. Now she has roles that involve her portraying herself as a promiscuous black female or involves her bringing a prostitute...why not play a role of a hard working mother making ends me in a respective way without being overly dominant but just doing it right?
Well, I liked your post even if some people didn't. The roles she plays now are okay but I would love to see her in a nice motherly role as you suggest too. Maybe something kind of like the role of Clair on The Cosby Show (not *just like* that, of course, because that's already been done, but *sort of* like that). Maybe when she's a little older she will get to play a (kind but firm) mom. I would really enjoy seeing that.
i think she was the best and she is a good acter and thats the best part no body can say any thing bad abount er she is good as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i love you rudy you are the best so keep up that good work
Anyway, I ALWAYS thought that the then-6-year-old Keshia did a great job for her age, and a pretty good job for ANY age. I never disputed that, I never said that she didn't do a good job...OF COURSE she was only 6 and was doing great for that age!!! I never said or suggested otherwise!
And it's neither fair nor necessary to berate or criticize someone for *supposed* comments which he/she never even made.
Sorry for being so long-winded. Everyone please have a wonderful day! ^_^
I think that probably Keshia (not "Keisha") already did know, even at age 6, that having a truly "photographic memory" and getting every word of your lines right aren't necessarily the exact same thing. But even if maybe she didn't completely know that (at age 6!), so what? I wasn't criticizing her, I was only *wondering how much she knew, that's all*. (At least two [loud, wrong] people thought I was criticizing her, AND at least one of THEM didn't know exactly what "photgraphic memory" meant!)
House of Payne and Meet the Browns (also from Tyler Perry) are both cute shows, but I think the Cosby Show, even though (or partly because) it's older, is even cuter! ^_^
I apologize once again, this time for repeatedly spelling her name wrong! (Sorry, Keshia. Not "Keisha". A lot of people have that spelling, which fact temporarily mixed me up. Ooops!!!)
By the way, lilkunta...my reply to Smithworks2's post was decidedly NOT "loud and wrong"; it was gentle and quiet. In that particular instance, I'm afraid YOU turned out to be the one who was being "loud and wrong". (Not about HOP, but about the post to which you were replying [mine].)
To everyone: Sorry for the half-dozen posts in a row from me, this time. I was replying to 4 posts which I had not previously seen. (I do think that even if I am long-winded, SOME people understand SOME of what I say. However, I do apologize for any inconvenience caused by my long-windedness!)
The beautiful and talented Phylicia Rashad recently starred in a TV production of the play A Raisin in the Sun. Audra McDonald (from the Annie movie remake) was in it too. (See, I know who's in what.)
To maryray10: Yeah, I know. (Thank you for being nice and polite about it. Unlike some people. ^_~) I kind of realized that (and also that I probably did go on and on too much...what was it, like 8 posts in a row all from me? @__@) but only AFTER I'd already posted all that, and then I decided to just let it stand anyway as a record of what my view was. (I got a bit defensive because I was being attacked. Oh, well. Occasionally that happens! ^_~)
I don't really know, lilkunta, why you and ukevine1 both felt the need to tell me "She was only 6!" about Keisha. I know how old she was at the time, I have thought for YEARS that she was talented for that age, I STILL think so, and anyway it was not Keisha that I had any problem with. Keisha did a great job for her age...actually, a pretty good job for ANY age. My complaints were about ukevine1 and about Keisha's interviewer, neither of whom was only 6. ^_~ Pay more attention before you post?
Smithworks2 said "And now she works for Tyler Perry, on House of Pain", not "she is on House of Pain". The "she works for" part of the post was a "she does", not a "she is". I was replying to the "she is" part of the post, the "beautiful and talented" part. If I'd been referring to the HOP part, I would've said, "Yes, she does" and "so do they", not "yes, she is" and "so are they". Small difference, I know, but grammatically significant!
Listen, the reason is: She left huge city life and went to school "in the woods" as she said it in one of her interviews. Also, the world must say kudos to whoever took care of her and brought her up this way. A rare inspiration. Right now, she talks really formal, although she does show that she can perfectly do the usual lingo of my African American sisters. A rare gem and pearl of inspiration.
youngjoe: What the hell do u mean by that? Keisha/Raven are both not on drugs, successful, respectful, & great roles models for young girls of colour worldwide. Keisha went further & is college eduacted, she grad from Spellman.
lilkunta: lol. I never stated that Raven is uneducated and I never disputed the fact that they are role models to young females of color worldwide. They are well respected in my book. All i did was make a simple comparison in appearance between the two. Where did drugs come from?
i just love her...and the main reason is because she is in no way stuck up...and she does not act like she's 7 going on 27...like alot of the child stars today do...not that I'm putting them down its just that you will see a 7 or 8 year old talking like shes above everyone else or like a adult anyone know what i mean?
to all who have written in the past months about keisha knight pullman : she is not a burnt out actress she is in fact a graduate of college and has a current role in house of payne which is a very popular t.v. show
I believe she still makes more than you do, that's if you do anything. And how do you know about low budget films, are you a producer or in the show business, nah!
She has remained grounded throughout her entire career. She even made sure to graduate fom college and get a degree! What a lovely woman she's grown into. I enjoy her in everything she's been in.... I just wish she hadn't "reintroduced" herself in that wack Chingy video. Ughh!
I guess "precocious" must've gotten a reputation for supposedly meaning sort of cutesy, bratty, pretending-to-be-clever, etc., because *some* supposedly-precocious kids *do* sometimes *act like that*...*if* they're given the opportunity to get too full of themselves about their own precociousness. I'm glad that Keshia at age 6 was *not* like *that*...but I think that she *was* precocious...which basically means being skilled/talented/etc., early on/at an early age. But she was nice about it. ^_^
Speaking of definitions...it sounds like the interviewer probably doesn't know what "precocious" means (it *doesn't* mean bratty or rude...or at least it doesn't *have to*...it *usually* means *gifted* and it *can occasionally* mean showing off about it, but that's *not the true* meaning...but the
interviewer said, "She's not precocious at all, she's an absolute delight" [uh...oookay ^_~].)
(By the way, no, I am *not* really picking the people apart...I just *like words*! ^_^)
To southfieldmo: Yeah, exactly...I thought it was funny, but kind of ignorance-revealing, how the interviewer apparently doesn't know what "precocious" means! ^_~ (I'm going to assume that why she didn't look it up was because she didn't realize that she didn't know. ^_~ It always kind of...amuses, entertains and slightly annoys me, all at the same time, how *somehow* a lot of television interviewers/reporters/etc. reveal ignorance of a level that I'd be embarrassed to reveal on TV.)
My mom observed years ago that several writers in one newspaper kept using "androgynous" incorrectly...it seems that somebody used it to refer to Peter Pan, and then everyone else thought that it meant "sprightly" or "lively" or "cute" or something...anyway, they kept using it incorrectly for a while and then they all stopped...so, my mom deduced that *probably* somebody who actually *knew* what the word meant sent out a memo saying, don't use it if that's not what you mean by it. ^_~
Anyway, ukevine1, since *you* set out to "correct" *me* without really knowing the actual definition of the term yourself...I'd say that it was you, not I, who behaved like Dan Quayle...next time could you save us all a lot of trouble and just simply *look up the definition* BEFORE you post? (And, yes,
SOME people who memorize things VERY quickly do indeed have photographic memories...however, being *able to commit something to memory relatively quickly* is simply having a *quite good* memory.)
Anyway being a very quick study and nearly word perfect is BRILLIANT for that age, I NEVER said or implied that it was not. I'm saying *only* that it does not *necessarily* mean that a person has a *photographic memory* (which does *not* mean being able to
commit something to memory *relatively* quickly and reproduce/recite/repeat it afterward...*most actors* are expected to do *that* although not always as young as 6!).
(For instance, my memory's *good* but it's not exactly *photographic*.)
She talked about the man on TV who presumably *did* have a photographic memory, then she kind of changed the subject and went to taking about whether she herself is word perfect with her script or not...and I *think* she meant after she had looked at it for at least a few minutes, not just a *second or two*. She did not exactly ever claim that she herself has a true photographic memory. She *did* let us know that she's a quick study and *nearly* word perfect (not *necessarily* photographic).
kitty: more crap from you. Loud and WRONG . The only person from TCS on HOP is Keisha. Keisha's HOP character Miranda's mother IS NOT Phylicia Rashad, it is Valarie Pettiford ( from 1/2 & 1/2 ).
Phylicia Rashad was on Everybody Hates Chris and the cable USA show Psych.
To lilkunta (sigh): You misunderstood. That was NOT "more crap from me" and it was NOT "loud and wrong" (the other things I said were not crap or wrong either, by the way, and I was being loud only because somebody else was!). I did NOT state that Phylicia Rashad had been on HOP or that any Cosby star besides Keisha had been on HOP. I was talking/writing about the LAST sentence of Smithworks2's post..."she's beautiful and talented still to this day". I didn't even mention HOP. You just assumed.
Anyway, ukevine1, you did not understand what I said *and* you probably didn't *quite* get all of what Keshia said either.
What Keshia was talking about *mainly* is just being *very good at learning her lines*, which is possible *without* a photographic memory. (Unless she *does* have a true photographic memory, she could *not* glance at her script for one second and get every word right...she would have to *deliberately memorize* which is what I think she most likely did...and was good at it.)
kitty: no 1 understands what your saying bc you're longwinded. Did Keisha say she has a photographic memory? No. She clearly stated that bc she was growing up TCS was giving her more line. The story she shared was just that, a story!
YOU YOU YOU r the 1 going way overboard & saying 2 much in your 13 posts of over analysation about whether she is good @ memorising or has a photographic memory or is a quick study.
To lilkunta: I'm aware that Keisha did not say that she had a photographic memory, she basically said that she was getting good at learning lines and that it was ALMOST LIKE having a photographic memory. (I do think that she was talking not JUST about getting older but also about being what is called a quick study. Anyway I was not mad at Keisha, SHE did not state that being a quick study and having a photographic memory were the same thing, ukevine1 was who made that claim.)
Anyway, it is actually *not possible to tell from this video* whether Keshia *really* has a photographic memory or is *just a very quick study* (theater talk for being very good at quickly learning one's lines). (Actually I'd say that because she next says about how sometimes she switches things around a bit and only gets them *almost* just right, she either only has a *partially* photographic memory or is really just a quick study which is a whole different thing.
To lilkunta: I was replying to someone who was harassing me, I was not trying to harass the person or anyone else, and my replies were 7 months ago, thank you, so please, YOU stop it. I already stopped it. Thanks.
Why, thank you. ^_~ (Even if you didn't mean it as exactly a compliment, I can still take it as one anyway if I want to. ^_~). I like being a nerd. (To the tune of the Flower Drum Song song about "I adore being a girl"..."I enjoy being a nerd". ^__^)
I have (mostly) enjoyed posting at this video, except for replying to two posters who basically attacked me for being a nerd. You didn't attack me, so I have nothing against you.
I can't tell for sure whether or not Keshia (at age 6) knew what a photographic memory is, but you *certainly* don't. Having a *photographic memory* means being able to instantly see/recall the whole page as though one's mind had taken a photograph of it. Being able to "commit anything to memory relatively quickly" is possible for lots of people who DON'T have photographic memories. What Keshia is *primarily* describing is being a quick study, being word perfect, etc.
I feel like saying, did Keshia realize at this age that being very good at memorizing one's lines *isn't actually the same thing as* having a photographic memory? ^_~ (I have a fairly good memory for things I see, *and* I can memorize fairly well, but *true photographic memory* is more than that and pretty rare [but I *think* that really, Keshia *mostly* just meant that she was *trying* to do something *sort of like* having a photographic memory! ^_^].)
SHE WAS 6!, Only 6! Besides, memory, memorize; do you see a corelation there? To memorize is to commit to memory, so, she's right. If you can commit anything to memory relatively quickly, & retain it so that you can duplicate, recite, describe or repeat it, you have PHOTOGRAPHIC memory, even if it's written scripts.
You sound like Dan Quale correcting a 3rd grader on how to spell potato by making him add an "E" to it; WRONG! We know what that did to his rep not to mention his political career.
First of all, I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding. I like her A LOT and I was really just making a JOKE. Second of all, though, you went way overboard in your defense of someone who was not even being attacked...and you were kind of rude. Third of all...you have missed the point. Of COURSE she MEMORIZED, I never said she did not. And whether a person has "photographic memory" has nothing to do with whether the material is a written script or a photograph or what. I'll continue this in a bit.
"If you can commit anything to memory relatively quickly, & retain it so that you can duplicate, recite, describe or repeat it, you have a PHOTOGRAPHIC memory"...well, you just proved that you don't REALLY know what the term "photographic memory" means.
Many thousands of people who DON'T have photographic memories can do what you just described...and whether the material is *written* or not has *nothing to do with it*...the difference is between a *photographic* memory or just a *good* memory.
Had a crush on her when I was a child, always watched the Cosby Show. Well not that I don't have a crush anymore, she's fineee. Call meee. haha. Thanks for posting.
I love Raven too...and I was just thinking (reading this video's info) that *Raven* was the *real* youngest star of the show (but to be fair, I'll admit that Keshia was still the youngest when this interview was done! and Keshia made a few movies when she was a kid too [a version of Pollyanna and a version of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court ^_^]...but she didn't stay as popular for as long as Raven! well, in a way she did but mostly just from the Cosby Show role!).
kitty: Raven wasnt the real youngest star. Rudy was & still is. Keisha was nom's for an Emmy. TCS was big , #1 yr after yr from 84-90. By the time Raven joined as Olivia TCS wasnt as popular.
I love Pollyanna!
After TCS Keisha moved to the Virgina country & went 2 a boarding school. Raven stayed acting, memba she was on Hangin W Cooper b4 her disney show.
To lilkunta: Keisha and Raven were BOTH the true child stars of the show. There does not have to be a contest between them. I meant only that Raven's *the youngest*...she's younger than Keisha and she was on the Cosby Show at an even younger age. Yes, Rudy was probably the most popular Cosby Show child character ever, since her childhood years were when the show was at its height. But I was not talking popularity, I was talking *youngest*. You made some good points too, though.
There will be alot more good looking adults if people had the money like celebrities to fix what they think is wrong with their body to meet social standard of beauty.

Smithworks2 said "And now she works for Tyler Perry, on House of Pain", not "she is on House of Pain". The "she works for" part of the post was a "she does", not a "she is". I was replying to the "she is" part of the post, the "beautiful and talented" part. If I'd been referring to the HOP part, I would've said, "Yes, she does" and "so do they", not "yes, she is" and "so are they". Small difference, I know, but grammatically significant!

Listen, the reason is: She left huge city life and went to school "in the woods" as she said it in one of her interviews. Also, the world must say kudos to whoever took care of her and brought her up this way. A rare inspiration. Right now, she talks really formal, although she does show that she can perfectly do the usual lingo of my African American sisters. A rare gem and pearl of inspiration.

anotherashley1985 3 years ago
I guess "precocious" must've gotten a reputation for supposedly meaning sort of cutesy, bratty, pretending-to-be-clever, etc., because *some* supposedly-precocious kids *do* sometimes *act like that*...*if* they're given the opportunity to get too full of themselves about their own precociousness. I'm glad that Keshia at age 6 was *not* like *that*...but I think that she *was* precocious...which basically means being skilled/talented/etc., early on/at an early age. But she was nice about it. ^_^
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
Speaking of definitions...it sounds like the interviewer probably doesn't know what "precocious" means (it *doesn't* mean bratty or rude...or at least it doesn't *have to*...it *usually* means *gifted* and it *can occasionally* mean showing off about it, but that's *not the true* meaning...but the
interviewer said, "She's not precocious at all, she's an absolute delight" [uh...oookay ^_~].)
(By the way, no, I am *not* really picking the people apart...I just *like words*! ^_^)

Anyway, ukevine1, since *you* set out to "correct" *me* without really knowing the actual definition of the term yourself...I'd say that it was you, not I, who behaved like Dan Quayle...next time could you save us all a lot of trouble and just simply *look up the definition* BEFORE you post? (And, yes,
SOME people who memorize things VERY quickly do indeed have photographic memories...however, being *able to commit something to memory relatively quickly* is simply having a *quite good* memory.)
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
Anyway being a very quick study and nearly word perfect is BRILLIANT for that age, I NEVER said or implied that it was not. I'm saying *only* that it does not *necessarily* mean that a person has a *photographic memory* (which does *not* mean being able to
commit something to memory *relatively* quickly and reproduce/recite/repeat it afterward...*most actors* are expected to do *that* although not always as young as 6!).
(For instance, my memory's *good* but it's not exactly *photographic*.)
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
She talked about the man on TV who presumably *did* have a photographic memory, then she kind of changed the subject and went to taking about whether she herself is word perfect with her script or not...and I *think* she meant after she had looked at it for at least a few minutes, not just a *second or two*. She did not exactly ever claim that she herself has a true photographic memory. She *did* let us know that she's a quick study and *nearly* word perfect (not *necessarily* photographic).

Phylicia Rashad was on Everybody Hates Chris and the cable USA show Psych.

To lilkunta (sigh): You misunderstood. That was NOT "more crap from me" and it was NOT "loud and wrong" (the other things I said were not crap or wrong either, by the way, and I was being loud only because somebody else was!). I did NOT state that Phylicia Rashad had been on HOP or that any Cosby star besides Keisha had been on HOP. I was talking/writing about the LAST sentence of Smithworks2's post..."she's beautiful and talented still to this day". I didn't even mention HOP. You just assumed.
KittyStarlight 2 years ago
Anyway, ukevine1, you did not understand what I said *and* you probably didn't *quite* get all of what Keshia said either.
What Keshia was talking about *mainly* is just being *very good at learning her lines*, which is possible *without* a photographic memory. (Unless she *does* have a true photographic memory, she could *not* glance at her script for one second and get every word right...she would have to *deliberately memorize* which is what I think she most likely did...and was good at it.)
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
kitty: no 1 understands what your saying bc you're longwinded. Did Keisha say she has a photographic memory? No. She clearly stated that bc she was growing up TCS was giving her more line. The story she shared was just that, a story!
YOU YOU YOU r the 1 going way overboard & saying 2 much in your 13 posts of over analysation about whether she is good @ memorising or has a photographic memory or is a quick study.
GOODNESS !
lilkunta 2 years ago
To lilkunta: I'm aware that Keisha did not say that she had a photographic memory, she basically said that she was getting good at learning lines and that it was ALMOST LIKE having a photographic memory. (I do think that she was talking not JUST about getting older but also about being what is called a quick study. Anyway I was not mad at Keisha, SHE did not state that being a quick study and having a photographic memory were the same thing, ukevine1 was who made that claim.)
KittyStarlight 2 years ago
Anyway, it is actually *not possible to tell from this video* whether Keshia *really* has a photographic memory or is *just a very quick study* (theater talk for being very good at quickly learning one's lines). (Actually I'd say that because she next says about how sometimes she switches things around a bit and only gets them *almost* just right, she either only has a *partially* photographic memory or is really just a quick study which is a whole different thing.

Continuing...
I can't tell for sure whether or not Keshia (at age 6) knew what a photographic memory is, but you *certainly* don't. Having a *photographic memory* means being able to instantly see/recall the whole page as though one's mind had taken a photograph of it. Being able to "commit anything to memory relatively quickly" is possible for lots of people who DON'T have photographic memories. What Keshia is *primarily* describing is being a quick study, being word perfect, etc.
^_^
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
I feel like saying, did Keshia realize at this age that being very good at memorizing one's lines *isn't actually the same thing as* having a photographic memory? ^_~ (I have a fairly good memory for things I see, *and* I can memorize fairly well, but *true photographic memory* is more than that and pretty rare [but I *think* that really, Keshia *mostly* just meant that she was *trying* to do something *sort of like* having a photographic memory! ^_^].)
^_^
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
SHE WAS 6!, Only 6! Besides, memory, memorize; do you see a corelation there? To memorize is to commit to memory, so, she's right. If you can commit anything to memory relatively quickly, & retain it so that you can duplicate, recite, describe or repeat it, you have PHOTOGRAPHIC memory, even if it's written scripts.
You sound like Dan Quale correcting a 3rd grader on how to spell potato by making him add an "E" to it; WRONG! We know what that did to his rep not to mention his political career.
ukevine1 3 years ago
First of all, I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding. I like her A LOT and I was really just making a JOKE. Second of all, though, you went way overboard in your defense of someone who was not even being attacked...and you were kind of rude. Third of all...you have missed the point. Of COURSE she MEMORIZED, I never said she did not. And whether a person has "photographic memory" has nothing to do with whether the material is a written script or a photograph or what. I'll continue this in a bit.
KittyStarlight 3 years ago
"If you can commit anything to memory relatively quickly, & retain it so that you can duplicate, recite, describe or repeat it, you have a PHOTOGRAPHIC memory"...well, you just proved that you don't REALLY know what the term "photographic memory" means.
Many thousands of people who DON'T have photographic memories can do what you just described...and whether the material is *written* or not has *nothing to do with it*...the difference is between a *photographic* memory or just a *good* memory.

After TCS Keisha moved to the Virgina country & went 2 a boarding school. Raven stayed acting, memba she was on Hangin W Cooper b4 her disney show.

To lilkunta: Keisha and Raven were BOTH the true child stars of the show. There does not have to be a contest between them. I meant only that Raven's *the youngest*...she's younger than Keisha and she was on the Cosby Show at an even younger age. Yes, Rudy was probably the most popular Cosby Show child character ever, since her childhood years were when the show was at its height. But I was not talking popularity, I was talking *youngest*. You made some good points too, though.
