Vesta is hilarious! A comedienne and a diva rolled into one! Her vocals are on point and she can enrapture an audience with 10 lbs of hair on her head and a sequined blouse! RIP!
Vesta's UNSUNG was hilarious and heartbreaking all at once (because she passed away a few weeks after filming it) but she said "I had put on a lot of weight but my big ass could still dance." She had me rollin.
Tiffany Landry yesss Definitely Gone Too Soon. When she performed she owned the stage with that beautiful voice of hers and had such a beautiful presence to match her beauty. Wish she’d gotten a chance to see how much love she’s getting after all these years from New and old fans
This hands down is one of her BEST performances. I saw this back in when I was in high school and became an instant fan. She worked the hell out of that audience. Who are the 12 people that gave this a thumbs down? What do they know. Miss you Vesta!! You were definitely unsung.
...this was was One of "Showtime at The Apollo" 's BEST performances; although nothing can beat the appearances of Patti LaBelle, Stephanie Mills, Al B. Sure!, Expose, Lisa Stansfield, GUY, & others, Vesta's was 100% LIVE, and showed audiences that 'Big Gals' can swing, TOO! (2:49) / (3:29)
She could really dance for sure 😃! She had moves and grooves honey, that voice lawwwwd have mercy, we lost a great singer..great singer, loved me some vesta williams honey!! R.I.P. boo.
Jerome Holloman she was heavy in her earlier career...this is why she had a tough time making it in the industry because back then they relied on appearances ALLOT.....she still touched this world and made her landing place on earth....she will be missed...
Vesta was the real deal. I've seen her live and she really lights up a crowd. I had the pleasure of meeting her. She was confident and yes she did sing backgrounds with chaka khan, gladys knight and many others before going out on her own. The industry didn't appreciate her. Back then heavy set women were not embraced like they are today but it was timing. When she finally lost the weight she passed away. Had she lived forget about it she would have won grammy's, had a tv show because she was a comedian too. Girl u were the Best...Miss your Fire......
Omg I love it! 😂 She's definitely one of the best singers I've ever heard and despite her not being a certain size according to the industry's standards she was very pretty!
As we’re going into 2018 Can’t help but to think about this beautiful soul she has been on my mind idk I guess because I was so excited about her making a comeback and she suddenly passed away... Can’t believe it’s been 6yrs she definitely left us amazing memories of her 🙏🏽❤️ #LegendaryVocalist
Lord only knows how I miss this beautiful and talented lady, there will never be another Vesta! She was and will always be one of my favorites and forever in my heart! Rest on Vesta 🙏🏾❤️💐🎂
that would have a show with Vesta and Chaka Khan Vesta was a hell of a singer on the lines with Chaka she never got the credit she deserved R.I.P Vesta

She was a combo Angela Winbush & Chaka. Underrated and unappreciated. Great live performance.
Queen rip
AND THAT'S HER 100% REAL HAIR!!!
YES LET THEM KNOW!
That wasn't her hair

It's soon to to be 2018 and all I can still say is wooooow! Vesta was so talented and beautiful. Gone too soon,for sure.

She killed the old school dances ❤❤❤
She was so amazing. She is workin! And didn’t miss a beat on her signing. Perfect scale. Hitting that augmented octave at 4:34
I remember watching this back in high school. Everybody thought she sounded like Chaka. She was definitely my favorite 😍 love and miss you MVW rih 🙏🙏
Vesta left it ALL on that stage!!!! ♥️❤️♥️

I love the dancing contest on 2:40 dude killed it
Honey, back then a lot of cats wanted to be in his position that night!!!!!!!!!!! :)))
@@coachrobinson9958 i know I would ..

That "Whoaaaa" from Sinbad at the end was genuine lol 💯👏🏾
2020 Lord, I'm remembering watching this! My junior year of high school, missing her incredible talent. 2:31 to 3:01 🔥🔥🔥🔥
1989 ...I was 16 and this song was Fiahhhhhhhh
Beautiful x10 Super Talented Actor , Singer, Writer etc etc
I just wish that she could’ve lived longer to experience the Verzuz Battles, she definitely would’ve been a contender.
Wow, a talent. The industry was stupid to over look her. She could have done tv, Dream Girls yes, sitcoms the sky was the limit. A gift she was
SING Vesta Williams!!! That personality and Talent was a Winner!!
As we’re going into 2018 Can’t help but to think about this beautiful soul she has been on my mind idk I guess because I was so excited about her making a comeback and she suddenly passed away... Can’t believe it’s been 6yrs she definitely left us amazing memories of her 🙏🏽❤️ #LegendaryVocalist

I see where Selena Quintanilla got a lot of her inspiration from. RIP to both ladies! 80s & 90s was lit!
Vesta!!
I don’t know why I think AL B Sure when I hear this 😅
He probably co produced it or did adlips
How come all the great ones leave us so soon?
Uggggh what a time to have been alive watching and listening to Vesta 🤎🔥😁 I just wish she was able to blow up bigger then she began so damn talented
Ok peoples, what was the dance that Vesta did at 2:50! Please tell me !!! Thanks in advance.
Mommy was gettin’ it!!!
She sounds a lil bit like Chaka Kahn but 1000% better! Wonder what she be doing if she had lived.
She did backup for Chaka.
Right. Beautiful. Vesta
Debrah Richardson the sung together.
@@lesliecollins7678 and Anita in the studio..
She sounds a LOT like Chaka. She has Chakas WHOLE style.
Today I was told I favored her so I came to see if we favored. I can see what they mean. I resemble the fat version. The hair and eyes and weight.
