A “Lil Positivity”: LeToya Luckett Day?

We don’t know why, but LeToya Luckett was honored in Houston yesterday and given her own “Day,”:

While she has not been a member of Grammy Award-winning group Destiny’s Child for more than five years, singer LeToya Luckett has enjoyed plenty of business and musical success on her own. The Houston native will now be…

… honored by her hometown with a day that recognizes her achievements.

City of Houston councilman Ronald Green will present Luckett with a proclamation in front of Houston City Hall at 2 p.m. Tuesday that declares Aug. 25, 2009, as LeToya Luckett Day. After severing ties with Destiny’s Child in 2000, Luckett has since released a self-titled solo album in 2006 and opened two fashion stores in Houston named Lady L Boutique. One of the stores is located near the Houston Galleria while another one is located near the Uptown Park shopping center. The proclamation coincides with the release of Luckett’s second solo album, “Lady Love.” Luckett is also celebrating the October release of the motion picture “Preacher’s Kid,” in which she stars, and “Five Killers,” in which she will appear with Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl.

We can’t knock the hustle.

  • Charvon83

    It’s not a hustle she gives back to her city and reps it proudly. I am a big supporter of her work and music. She doesn’t need Beyonce at all. It’s nice to see someone from my city doing well and being recognized for it. Not acting a fool on reality TV.

  • MrS*Diamond Encrusted*Glok

    Good for her!!!!! Houston loves LeToya… Go girl!

  • Born

  • WordtotheWise

    I love me some Toya. She’s one of the very few artists I’m feeling today. Her album is the business and she’s such a beautiful young lady. I am rooting for her all the way! Go Toya!

    LMAO such bafoonery and IDOLISIM….

    why in the world does she of all FIRE FIGHTERS POLICE WORKERS DOCTORS TEACHERS AND THOSE THAT LIVE THERE LIVES DAILY OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE HELPING PPL…FROM FOSTER CAREGIVERS..TO THOSE THAT RUN CHARITIES AND FOUNDATIONS FOR THE SICK HOMELESS AND POOR AND MOST CERTAINLY LESS FORTUNATE AND FOR THOSE THAT LIVE THERE LIVES TRYING TO HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE…. DOES MS LATOYA A R&B SINGER DESERVES TO BE HONORED??? FOR WHAT IS SHE A GOD? DID SHE CHANGE A WHOLE NATION/?? I DONT FKN THINK SO……..I dont see THE REAL ONES THAT GIVE BACK AND HELP THERE FELLOW MAN getting rewarded there own day???

    Bunch of asskissers if you ask me…nobody deserves there own damn day…BUT GOD HIMSELF…WOW what a superficial obsessed with the glitz & glamour type of world we live in.

    Hell Michael Jackson didnt even get his own damn day…and probably never cared for such recoginition because the people basically gave him enough honor daily…the only ONE THAT DESERVES TO BE HONORED IS GOD…NOT ONE LIVING SOUL ON THIS EARTH…because everybody is sinners. such fools. smh.

  • Qui

    congrats toya!!! She deserves it so much and i’m sooooo proud of her! the new album is fire!

  • TEXASGRL

    We are sooooooooooooo PROUD of u Letoya this is coming straight from yur home town…..HTOWN…keep doing what u do…You have come in to your own….U HAVE ARRIVED!!!!

  • Perez

    We’ll see if all these so-called “supporters” of hers have went out and bought the cd? Why are people even mentioning Bey for? lol.

  • So Savvy

    go toya, go toya, go toya! i luv this young lady in ever way possible. she’s the epitome of class. keep doing ur thang girl!!!

  • babydol

    You know why Beyonce doesn’t have a day in Houston… because she rarely even reps Houston. You hardly see her down here or even doing anything in the Houston community. I pass by the House of DeReon everyday and she or her sister hasn’t did any fundraisers here like that. LeToya does her thing in Houston.

  • On Blast

    Letoya’s album is phenominal, the girl can sang, sang, sang. She has the best album, People please don’t sleep on her. Because no not beyonce is holding a candle to Letoya please believe me. And yes her album is on it’s way to selling 500,000 to 1,000,000 it’s first week out. She is not going to be touch by the haters. Even without a barage of promotion, that speaks to her amazing talents. Toya keep up the great work because Allah is with you.

  • JesusTakeTheWheel

    A MrTavMaria…Beyonce doesnt have her own day. and if she does then what I said above is directed to her as well.

  • sasha

    LeToya is talented! Congrats to her.

  • Amethyst

    I COULDN’T BE HAPPIER FOR LETOYA!! SHE IS SO DESERVING OF THIS HONOR. SHE’S A HUMBLE, TALENTED, AND COMPASSIONATE YOUNG WOMAN AND I KNOW THAT SHE’S GOING TO GO FAR! CONGRATULATIONS, MS. LUCKETT!
    BY THE WAY, PICK UP LADY LOVE…THE ALBUM IS FIYAH!
