    1. I was on threads & people were commuting on how Teyanna wasn’t a celebrity….who is she??? All because of the clip of her trying to get on the court at the Knicks in 5 championships game. I told them she’s wasn’t pressed. She came out & said what she said…. I told them try again “GOOGLE HER BABY.” Then here GOD go doing his BIG ONE & blessing her NOT with just 1 award but more. GOD bless her in all her endeavors & her family. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

    2. 🗣️I always ❤ Teyana & I always forever❤Ms. Janet Jackson if you’re nasty, and ask me! 🔥👌🏾🔥
      🗣️Congratulations to you 🍾🥂🍾 Teyana well deserved!

    3. 20 years ago she nagging her mom for a bike on MTV's My Sweet 16 lol. I definitely think she's been grinding but "doing it 20 years" is kind of stretch. I'm glad she did make that distinction from having an iconic year and Janet being a real icon.

    4. When she mentioned the budget for having a stylist, people forgot that celebs have to spend money on all that. I think this is why they make so much money to invest in their crafts and projects. And they have to pay their crew; that's all that's involved. It takes a village.

    5. Congratulations Teyana. Keep your eyes on the prize. I think you should continue to grow your director skills and go to the next level. This is the thing. Your gifts are your gifts. If you want to become a movie producer one day, pray and confess it. Remember what Janet said. Stay close to God through prayer. This will bless your girls as well.

    6. I still remember her MTV Sweet 16, which was the best one, people still doing that doll in the box thing. Tiana always been a fashionista though, since her teen years. I am so happy for her, I used to watch her youtube videos where she didn't even think she'd get married. I am so happy for T… Luv you girl, from Trinidad

    7. I RESPECT AND LOVE TEYANNA SO MUCH. I REMEMBER HER FROM TYLER PERRY MOVIE. THE LINE BYRONNNNN WAS F'ING HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂. U ARE AN ICON AND A GREAT MOM TOO.
