Tatyana Ali was photographed walking down the streets of Hollyweird. Quick, someone list five roles Tatyana has portrayed since she was Ashley Banks on the Fresh Prince? She’s still adorable nonetheless, nice and wholesome…not letting that Hollyweird game “taint” her.

  • Candace

    It’s hard for some actors/actresses to get past the sitcom slump…I hope she gets some better acting roles and don’t try to go back to singing.

  • http://hisstory1.blogspot.com C. Baptiste Williams

    she has a 3 line reoccuring role on Young and the Restless now playing Little Richie from Family Matter’s girlfriend.

    she was on the show for at least 3 times before they even gave her a name.

  • PIMP DADDY

    I STILL WANT TO TAP THAT ASS.

  • Dolla Bill

    She’s still cute…I’ve seen her on Y&R a couple times myself. Hopefully the good folks over there will offer Tatyana a contract.

  • Miss Dee (The Phenomenal Woman)

    Beautiful girl… so-so actress. I’m with Candace… NO MO SINGING!!!!!!!

  • N3w0rl3@ns

    “back up! back up! mind ya bidness, just MIND YA BIDNESS!”

  • Maruice

    I think she’s beautiful. Love her skin color. Gorgeous girl. Un tainted.

  • Silk Hickey

    Damn. . .she’s still fine. I’d eat!

  • Grace

    I don’t care if she hasn’t worked that much. I am just glad that she is not on drugs and acting a damn fool like so many other child stars. I don’t want to see her in XXL magazine like Keisha Knight Pullem. She put out an CD right after Fresh Prince went off the air so I don’t know what happened to her singing career.

  • Mona

    don’t know about the heair or the outfit..but it doesn’t look like she was expecting the cameras…just a casual day nothing wrong with that…but she’s still a pretty girl.. when I was a kid she’s the one every girl wanted to look like and every boy had a crush on.

  • Jessica

    She was in that Beauty Salon Movie. Did you ever see that movie on the Black Stars Movie Channel about a Salon and Bobby Brown was her Abusive boyfriend?? LOL! Look it up

  • DM

    She was also Morris Chestnut’s little sis in “The Brothers”.

  • Mila

    @jjj

    Ashley Banks from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

  • Stirring shyt up

    She doesn’t like black men, for real, she complained about black guys some time ago. Also when did you last see her with a black guy ?…(puts on armor and awaits the battle that is sure to come)

  • gapeach

    ashley banks was her name on the sitcom fresh prince

  • Doc

    america sweatheart!

  • memchee

    good for her….I’m sure we’ll see her onscreen again.

  • I’m Just Me

    I know she was on that Fox’s next director show last year. What happened to her singing career?? She had a cute voice.

  • Smokie

    THAT girl is a pothead. Everything about her screams blunts.

  • http://none Cholee

    People. Tatiana’s got a Harvard degree. At least she got an education.

  • Reece

    Don’t blast Tatayana. She has been very active in the Obama campaign as have I. I applaud that because she could be doing something else.

  • Cdot

    She got a degree from Harvard.

  • embizzy

    She got yall fooled. innocent my ass ;)

  • NotoriousOne

    Tatayana is living decent on those syndication checks from Fresh Princ of Bel Air. I’m surprise Will hasn’t hooked her up in some of his films though. They looked like they got along after the cameras stopped rollin’…oh well.

  • Jack Tripper

    She was in a Lifetime Movie where she dated a white dude that tried to frame her for murder

    Oh yeah wasn’t she in the Barack Obama YES WE CAN video..?

    And as the others said the Brothers so that is THREE

    Do I win something??

  • yearight

    haha @ tatyana ali being wholesome..

  • anchored

    she had to fall off, record tumbled, acting tripping, stumbling down s. cali.

    somebody help me find “the wire” season five online.

    free t.i.

  • Christina

    Uh, didn’t she graduate from Stanford or something like that? Perhaps she chose to use her brains instead of her good looks :)

  • WTF is this?

    I just wanted to Pop in and say…….

    She has a Beautiful skin tone

  • htown chick

    She was also in Glory Road, or whatever it was called, it was about the Texas basketball team that had all Black starters or something…she played one of the guys girlfriend, Derek Luke I think.

  • http://www.teuscher-bh.com Cody

    I gave her that champagne truffle! That’s from Teuscher chocolates in Beverly Hills! http://www.teuscher-bh.com

  • Lili

    Tatiana looks young and fresh with minimal makeup.

  • Tiffany

    She was in That Beauty salon movie with queen latifah, she had a small role in Jawbreaker and she was in that Lifetime movie

  • tj

    Is it bad that I can name 5?

  • natalie

    She was too busy graduating from Harvard!

  • queenie

    Now what now…I dazed and confused from that damn outfit. Is she going for casual, dressy, what?

  • Rotex

    I think she is very good looking

  • Velle

    Thanks natalie I was about to say the same thing! She has her degree from Harvard! lol

  • Just an observation

    She gets $5000/episode for re-runs so she never HAS to work again. When I have kids, they are going to do a sitcom too! You know how many times the fresh prince comes on a day?

  • Brooklyn Bombshell

    1. the brothers

    2. glory road

    3. aint she on a soap?

    4. uuuuhhhh

    5. damn

  • http://www.theghoodlife.blogspot.com The Executive

    Ms. Ali Is a very bright young lady. After the fresh prince, she attended harvard university. She is now a political activist that is heavily involved in the Barack Obama campaign. She doesn’t need to act anymore anyway. Do you know the amount of money sh is getting from the fresh prince reruns. Those checks are long and that show comes on atleast 4 or 5 channels so you do the math.

  • nonconformist

    wholesome? ya’ll are trippin’. she was a huge cokehead and party girle while at Harvard and since has added herb to her repertoire. by all means, do you, but “wholesome” is taking it a bit far.

  • The Queen

    as a fellow classmate of Tatyana’s at Harvard, I would like to let it be known that Ta was not and has never been a coke-head on campus or off campus. She is no wild girl and I would LOVE to know where you got your facts from “Noncomformist”. Were you on campus? Which house did you live in? Do tell…But that’s besides the point. Tatyana is a beautiful intelligent woman who will be a force in this industry. Let us praise and support those who take the time to hone their craft. We’ll see how these comments change when you see the fruits of her labor…

  • KEEPINITREAL

    Okay calm down ms queenie it is not that serious this is a gossip website.

  • njgood

    All the hearsay and gossip still does not take away from her outter beauty.

  • Lucky

    She was in Kiss the Girls with Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd. She was in Glory Road too. And she guest starred on Half and Half and the Young in the Restless. Nothing really high profile but she is working steadily. Can’t ask for anything more than that in my opinion. The bills are getting paid.
