Made you look! This April Fools Day was full of jokes, but LisaRaye was the center of attention after one Twitter user had to do a double-take after he thought LisaRaye was civil rights icon, the late Rosa Parks. “Ni**a, I thought LisaRaye was Damn Rosa Parks!!! LMAOOOOO. Look at LisaRaye,” They Got Kary wrote. He shared a picture of LisaRaye next to Rosa with the tweet, “Can yall please look at LisaRaye!! Why is she in Black and white dressed like 1955??” The tweet had folks laughing and wondering about Lisa’s look while she was on ‘Cocktails with Queens’ , which she co-hosts along with Claudia Jordan, Vivica A. Fox, and Syleena Johnson.

Lisa took to her Instagram page to explain that the look was to pay homage as yesterday was the last day of Women’s History Month. “On this last day of women’s history month, I’m going to shout out to my Queens. Claudia Jordan Vivica fox and Syleena Johnson as we pay homage to Rosa Parks, Jane Kennedy Pam Grier, and Beyonce,” she wrote. “Check out Cocktails with the queens Mondays on @foxsoul or YouTube. Ladies, we pulled off another theme week.”
One person commented, “Salute to all these iconic women in this pic! Their contributions will never go unnoticed!” However, some people felt like Claudia didn’t pay homage to Jane Kennedy correctly. One commented, “Y’all looked great, but Claudia never understands the assignment. Y’all help her out, please.” Claudia responded and left a comment stating, “All y’all coming for my efforts, come to my page and see the image I was working off of. I thought it was shown in the show.”
Roommates, what do you think of the women of ‘Cocktails with Queens’ portraying the iconic women?
