Tupac Shakur
The greatest inspirational artist of all times. Spoke his mind whether it was bad or good, and told it as it really is. None of his music is made up bullshit like there is nowadays. He was one of the last REAL music artists. I know people that hate rap with a passion, but will listen to Tupac.

Rest in peace.... Hail Mary...

Roberta Flack for singer (regardless of color)

I really liked Oprah in "The Color Purple" Multi talented and very generous with her wealth. All around, great talent and a great person.

I don't believe Sidney Poiter was the best but certainly a ground breaker and a great actor. I would have to select Morgan Freeman over him.

do you ever go and see any live shows sparky ?.. i must do that a lot more often !
