[lilbrieze]

[breaks0]

@lilbrieze She was CUTE as hell! I had a crush on her for a couple years in the mid-80s and really I think it's a tossup between her and lisa as to who was the most attractive cast member, but I never liked dixiechicks so I'll give her the edge.

[MatchaCUB]

wow i love how genuine and pure kim fields is here. I'm blown away by her sincerity and simple sweetness. No wonder she was so popular, she is such a sweetheart. Oh why o why don't we see such awesome actors/actresses like this anymore

[dndrequiem]

I liked this interview.

[tafin4tor]

i just saw her on the fresh prince of bel air and damn she was fine....(in a respectable manner)

[bigddagenius]

kim fields looks nice but looked much better in living single : )

[WHP2005]

Thinking about "My Untold Story" about my kids of Baldwin Hills and viewing Kim from this video for the first time brings back memories. Giving my Thanks to GOD for my on going support by working with a few people in the area of Baldwin Hills. Kim and Mom will always be honored from their time that they had given to my family and kids of Baldwin Hills. I'm the type of person that will never forget when you have respect for others, the interview was excellent!

[BettyB313]

kim was so cute

[bigrene2]

Kim Fields is very pretty in this video.

[karameldreem]

Tom Joyner is nice looking with his red hair...

[WoodeytheBigEyedOne]

She has such a sweet sounding voice !

[naomi8992]

Such a sweet and humorous girl !

[level242]

Tom Joner looks different with hair

[level242]

"Girl you must got alot of money"

That was an inapporitate question.

[feudfan55]

What year was this from?

[bigrene2]

Around 1983.

[386bigDee]

kim fields was not on good times.she was on baby im back with demond( lamont sanford)wilson

[sfgoldengirl]

Yes, she was on good times. she played janet jackson's friend in an episode...check out IMDB

[kayluvGod]

Kim fields was indeed on Good Times...remember the episode when Florida and the kids were trapped in the snow storml...or the episode before that when they purchase her a plant...she was janet's ( penny's) friend

[karameldreem]

yes i remember that. gary coleman was on there also.

[naomi8992]

Yea she was a character on good times . she played as penny's friend

[Mahalo09]

She is just a cutie pie!!!!! I still love her!!!!

[SummerSunshine1988]

She seems to be much more shy or much quieter than her character "Tootie".

[womanruntings]

she wasnt on good times. it was janet jackson who played penny on good times not kim

[MJS1204]

actually she was on Good Times she played a little girl who rode the bus when Florida drove the bus.

[nnjvhvhhgc]

Kim Fields played on a few episodes too... I bet you didn't know that Penny's mother on "Good Times"(not Willona, but Chip Fields. Penny's real mother on the show) is actually Kim Fields mother in real life, did you? lol

[MJS1204]

I thought so because Chip was on some Living Single episodes and Kim and Chip really clicked

[nnjvhvhhgc]

Yea, I was watchin' that episode a few days ago. Alexis Fields (Kim's younger sister) looks just like Chip Fields though...lol

[naeray17]

she made appearences on goodtimes

[nnjvhvhhgc]

Kim Fields was always the bomb. I was too young to actually remember her character in "The Facts Of Life", but I do remember her from the show, just not was her character was about. But I always loved her characters in "Good Times" & "Living Single", she's very, very hilarious. I never had a crush on her, but I always thought she was very attractive (still do). This is a very nice interview, and it shows how sweet of a person she actually is in real life. Thanx for posting, and much love to Kim.

[MrLawJay]

How was you too young for the Facts Of Life, but remember her on Good Times?

[nnjvhvhhgc]

Well, "The Facts Of Life" was still airing on TV(original episodes) when I was a little kid (bout 6 or 7 years old), but I don't actually remember too much about the show, basically just the 3 girls (including Kim Fields) and their mother (or whoever the old white lady was on the show). I remember Kim Fields from Good Times cause I've been watchin' Good Times (The re-runs) ever since I was a child, even til this day and I'm 27 years old.

[nnjvhvhhgc]

Good Times is older than "The Facts Of Life", but they've been showing Good Times on TV since forever, even regular TV (UPN).

[MrLawJay]

Right Right!! I understand!

[MBOYA22]

From Tootie to Rajean to now Mrs. kim Fields I have always liked her. My first crush. I know real lame lol

[jcextra]

she has really established a trademark in Hollywood as a child star turning into an adult multi talented sensation

[NepperCat]

WOW, this goes back. Kim was definitely my first crush...amazin' lady she is.

[86pimp3]

She's so cute.

[tgl79]

Tom Joyner had hair?!! lol

[puppydog88]

LMFAO.....

[dav1237]

Kim was and is a very sweet person.

[ChocolateEyes]

i like how kim talks about her self in third person lol she's cute

[Johnny15depp]

shes sweet...not annoying like her charcter

[essentialeugene]

I found out that Kim Fields is of Jamaican heritage. They put her on roller skates to make her taller but she was removed from roller skates because the producers thought it was racially biased.

[prettycountrygirl2]

Wow, I've never seen photos of Mr. Joyner this young. My first inclination was to think that this was his son.

I would love to see the rest of the interview after Kim told Tom that he could be on her list. LOL

[direll]

OMG! Thanks for this. I'm saving this to my favorite!

[excellent4ever]

wow this is old footage! Tom Joyner had hair!!! LMAO! This was way before my time. I bet Kim no longer has a crush on Michael Jackson! lol. But I do

[GAMEBOIMARCUS]

Mikey was the man back in the day,lol

[serglew09]

Wow How Many People Can Say The Remember When Tom Joyner Had Hair

[AveIvy]

Tom hair, creepy.

[jayrocx]

i know, right?

[MissAries76]

WOW... it took me a minute to recognize Tom Joyner. I've never seen him with hair. This was a good interview, Kim was very mature at such a young age. Hmmm I wonder if she still has that crush on Michael Jackson... considering he looks like a Science Project gone BAD!

[TABULOUS1]

omg.... *discombobulated at the sight of him so long ago* He conducted a great interview though--great questions for a young actor... But just so u know: when u ask a young girl if she has a boyfriend & she giggles extensively, the answer is "yes" (lol) It just hits u sometimes, doesn't it? Dagnabbit I'm old! Dagg... I don't even WANNA know what year this was. lol @ tootie made tom blush I'mmo call him rkelly next time I see him. rofl

[realcoolc]

Wow. Someone else I had a crush on.
