We know Teena Marie sounds Black but one of her friends thought she actually was Black. See the story Nov. 1 @ 8pm (ET).

  • for the last time. i never said i thought she was black. i said i did not know her mother was white. tvone. you took a clip from 2 on the town which you got from me, then spliced it with a clip from unsung 2 create a falsehood. i was 9yrs old when i met lady, n 12 when i 1st saw her mother. i actually thought lady was italian or latina. i was sayn we were like kind n music, so color never was an issue. these clips are out of context.

  • Yeah; is it true she has never been honored at an award show with a plaque? Well, she is a gem with or without. I am happy Unsung has stepped up.

  • @TheMickeyboy1 and if she was italian she was not white????? come on

  • I wanna see SOLO on UNSUNG!!!

  • @TheMickeyboy1 You knew her personally?

  • I still can't believe she's not here anymore.  I had to learn through a magazine. We miss you Teena.

  • @denzo30 she also have some italian and native american in her aswell,but yeah may she rest in peace

  • @TheMickeyboy1 Dont let these people stress you out. You know what you know and surely it must've been an honor to have known her and been friends with her. I dreamt of the day we could sit and talk and finally we Tweeted together on Twitter and I was just elated the rest of the week. Keep your memories sacred.

  • @1ladyteefan no, i'm sorry, i have not figured it out.

  • @TheMickeyboy1 Hey, did you ever figure out how to upload?

  • I have White friends who don't try to act Black even though they appreciate our culture, music, etc. Teena was Teena and I never thought for a moment she was trying to sing like a Black person. if you are deep, in whatever you do, it will come out real. There are some posers around in both races. She wasn't one of em.
