    Lola was one of Hollywood's most complete beauties. Singing, dancing, and acting, just incredible.

    I remember her on the Flip Wilson Show and the Johnny Carson Show. I'll have to look up her movies as I have never seen them yet. I'm glad she got back to her spiritual roots and used her Faith to fight the crippling affects of Multiple Sclerosis. There are two types; remittant and progressive. She must have remittant. My brother had progressive so he died 10 years after he first noticed systems. He died at the young age of 54. Lola Falana is indeed blessed by God honoring her Faith in Him. Lambs of God Mimistry and helping orphans in Africa are keeping her alive to fulfill her purpose! ❤

    Lola is such an amazing woman, she was so talented. It was nothing that she couldn't do. She had the face, the body, the voice,and the brain. Awesome that she is still enjoying her life, and into her beliefs. You made us proud Lola. I remember watching Sanford and son and Red Fox would always talk about Lola Falana.

    Lola Falana was a multi-talented,strong, beautiful..creation of GOD .Enjoyed this extremely informative profile of her life.She was tough, resilient and extremely intelligent.....It has ALWAYS been " a man's world" entertainment & Hollywood...& Las Vegas & Italy....I am " certain" that she was NEVER paid her true worth....not in music industry,T.V.,nor the " big screen".......coupled with trying to " protect her personal self".What I most admire is that LOLA was a classy woman, possessed lots of COURAGE & surely had a very disciplined & organized mindset...very hardworking...indeed....So pleased that she " recognized & decided to devote herself to her "FAITH" .......created a humanitarian foundation... motivational speaker.... Deserves much more acclaim & recognition....Hope she has found peace within& her needs are met.GOD BLESS HER, ALWAYS!!......Wish I could meet & have " conversation & cup of tea.."........ with Ms.Lola Falana.......... Kathy Dowdye,Richmond,Va.,U.S.A.

    Lola is still beautiful at the age of 81 years! God "plucked" Lola from performing for the devil to performing for Him, and singing praises to Him! Btw, until I viewed this video, I never noticed the resemblance between her and the equally beautiful and talented Tamron Hall! God bless and protect BOTH of them. 🙏❤❤👍

    I remember Lola Falana when I was a young child. I watched her perform on TV with my family. She was pretty, and I liked her eye makeup (see 9:39). I still want to wear eye makeup the way that Lola Falana wore eye makeup. I am glad to know that she is alive.
