El Debarge Ebony Cover

El Debarge is continuing to make his comeback! He covers the October issue of Ebony Magazineand inside he talks about releasing Second Chance, his first album in 16 years. More details on that and a look at Gabourey Sidibe’s Elle Magazine cover below:

In his riveting and touching story, El describes what it was like growing up with a father who, “had some issues,” to becoming a singing sensation as the lead singer in the group DeBarge in the 1980s.

Pick up the October issue for El’s story about drugs, jail, the man he once was and the man he’s now become.

Gabourey Sidibe Elle 25th Anniversary issue

Big ups to Gabourey Sidibe for continuing to break barriers in entertainment. Gabby is featured alongside Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried and Lauren Conrad as one of several 20-somethings to be highlighted by ELLE magazine in celebration of their 25th anniversary.

Check out another shot of Gabby and Janelle Monae and other Elle “Favorite 25-Somethings” when you continue…

    First!!!

    It’s awesome to see Gabby on the cover of Elle. She is definitely breaking barriers. It’s encouraging to see that someone in fashion is willing to go against type and feature someone who isn’t a model. I hope her cover becomes a best seller.

I respect him even more now scince I learned of all the struggles he went through as a child.

  • Caramel Cat™

    I’m sorry, but Gabby looks terrible. Her hair is just BAD, and ummm, yeah, I have nothing else nice to say…I’ll leave it at that…well, she’s got beautiful skin…there it is… :(

  • http://u bklynlady

    I will ALWAYS love some Debarge. I keep the best of Debarge in my cd changer.

    Those cr@ckers did Gabby wrong!!!! She needs a black stylist ASAP!!!!

  • CUT the BULLSH!T!

    Love to see the positive comments about this young lady, although you will have your jealous haters who take cheap shots whining about her weight while she’s workin’ it all the way to the bank……nothing worse than black on black hate, hating someone else because you ain’t doin’ the same.

  • Caramel Cat™

    Why is it when someone expresses their opinion of another person’s looks, folks bring up their accomplishments? :roll:

  • EL IS BACK!!!

    i told yall he was back!

    NOW IF I CAN GET MY TICKETS FOR RADIO CITY I WILL BE ALL RIGHT.

  • Jenny

    @Cut the BULL
    I can’t speak for anyone else, but I can only comment on what I know to be facts, which is tht obesity is just as deadly as alcholism, drug addiction, or domestic violence. And it is disproportionately prevailant in the black community. If Gabby were to lose just 20 pounds, her chances of having a heart attack by age 35 would decrease by 40 percent. You mentioned her money, but money doesn’t stop a heart attack, diabetes, or stroke. Not hating, just stating facts.

  • Ms.Drizzy

    i agree gabby’s hair looks a mess and she needs to lose a bit of weight..she has nice skin though

  • Just A Thought

    OMG El DeBarge!! I wrote him a fan letter when I was 11 years. My first and only fan letter I ever wrote to a celebrity. El does look mighty, mighty good! Gabby, not feeling her hair. Maybe it is the angle of the photo. Happy Friday All!!

  • Otis

    She is an obese MAMMY and she looks a mess! Only obese women like her approve of the way she looks because they are fat slobs who refuse to do anything about their weight. Gabby is a disgrace. Why don’t they give beautiful, slim Dark women like GABBY UNION a job? Why don’t they put beautiful GABBY UNION on the cover? Because Hollywood is racist and enjoy making a mockery of the MAMMY look that’s why.

  • mathis

    FAT WOMEN ALWAYS TAKE UP FOR OTHER FAT WOMEN. THEY ARE ALL WEAK UGLY AND DUMB.

  • krakatoa

    Gabby’s got a Chewbacca wig.

  • FashionYaa

    Congrats Gabby and El Debarge…Imma buy both.

  • Allie

    That cover of El is GORGEOUS my goodness, and i’m glad to see gabby on the cover of elle even though it’s a bad picture

  • Get Real

    How come our beautiful sistas like Nia, Gabby Union, Regina King, Melinda Williams or the “original face” Vivica never made the cover or even an article. They are mocking her. Who cares about that nappy azz wig. She need to lose weight. I keep hearing stories that she’s losing but with every new picture her eyes sink further into her fat. At the rate she’s going she will be blind by New Years.

  • Get Real

    Did anyone even notice what it said next to her name? What 25 look like. The heart stealer. WTF!!!

    1st, during award show season she was 26. Now she is pulling a Beyonce by putting her age back….whatever

    2nd, whose heart is she stealing?

  • Get Real

    oh, forgot to add that 25 years old never looked so bad.

  • rachel

    I like Gabby, but it set such negative mammy like streotypes for black women…there are plenty of healthy body attractive black women they could of use who is 25 and under but not they pick her , they know what there doing white people are messed up. If Gabbly lost like 200 pounds for real she would be a knock out cuase she is by no means ugly she has a real pertty face but you cant see it under all that fat …MAN ELLE IS WRONG FOR THIS ONE

  • IGuessso

    El looks good….damn!!!!
