[leplaq]

@lenahorneclub excuse me what?

[lenahorneclub]

@leplaq You comment "omg she was not a lesbian and did not give up any child" is a little nuts.

[LADYDAEE]

@lenahorneclub do you know why lena gave up her only son?

[lenahorneclub]

There was a custody battle - her ex threatened her and some say blackmailed her for him. She was ambitious and wanted to move on with her career. She thought she left him in good hands. Read the James Gavin bio.

I love how she describes the beloved Ava Gardner - "She is BASIC. She is DOWN. She is LAID BACK!" In other words, a extremely cool woman, in the modern sense of the word.

So Elegant and Real. Modern black folks take lessons. Real Class.

@vawnalex exactly like why do people even bring up all this stuff they dont even know anything about and has nothing to do with the interview

[vawnalex]

@leplaq can I please get people to just enjoy her for being her, instead of going to the negative and no damn body commenting negatively knows her personally. They dont know SHT! ugh lol. Get a life...eh? Thanks for standing up to these dingalings!

@MusicandDancing4Ever as i said she is not from my generation, the first time i heard of lena was the day she passed so you can understand why i dnt know much about her........ take care xxx

[MusicandDancing4Ever]

@silents08 she said it many times what her race was through her stories and intervews and its common knowledge.

[silents08]

@MusicandDancing4Ever i love the way people feel that they can be rude just because theyre on youtube lol i was only asking a question she is not from my generation xx

[MusicandDancing4Ever]

@MisterCrazyLegs Lena could teach some of these young black girls today how to have class, grace, you don't have to act like a slut to be sexy or engaging. Most girls today don't even know how to give an interview. Lena didn't open the doors for black women to end up just being booty shakers.
