SMDH how people are so quick to judge someone else...Hell, that probably ain't even her mama...


dondi

monique2468

JamJam1

Omgosh, THIS Lady can SING!! Y'all so cannot hate on her. I heard she did this before Gabby got famous, because she just like to be different and likes entertaining everyone. So I wouldn't hate.... But she can sing her butt of!!


beesting123

Ingrid_Fun101

A_sez

Her mom is the truth and has a following of people that check for her. She is NOT panhandling.


Atlgagul

LovelyMichelle2

Prettierthanyou

Why yall tryna put her momma out there like that?! That's some disrespectful as$ $hit.


SantanaAyrianna

She sounds good!


Modacolorist

STOP THIEF! MTO STOLE THIS INFO FROM THE VIEW!

I have seen her b4 in the subway. She often sings sitting down. I saw her at the 34st station on the D line


imBossy

d---0.o---b Two Thumbs Up


DeeLaLa

This women need to go on a deit with her daughter that's what she need to go and do.


chcegrl_27

Incredible voice I luv her



halo

MTO and thier conddescending attitude is nauseating at times. The fact that she was a teacher tell you she has an education, the daughter has revealed it and the lady is not the first person to sing in a subway station. Even bigger talents has past through NYC subways.


KEKE_CASABLANCA

Thats some disrespectful [EXPLETIVE], MTO.


MsUnusual

check out her website [link to external website removed]


faundyb

wow she has talent that is a wonderful voice and def. a story that main stream media will never talk about


michaelsdirtydiana

her moms is a good singer though....get ur papers girl!


DramaDiva

I'm not an actress either, but they say, "Damn D.D. you can act". So, I told my mother to go to the MTA station and sing up some money for us to eat.


ThinkPink5

why would yall post that?? thats so wrong lol


GiselleCeleste

Is that really her mom and if so then. . .


kidcudiswifey17

OMG NOW WE CAN ALL SEE WHERE THAT POOR GIRL GETS HER LOOKS FROM, EW


Iwontbebad

NAH MTO DONT YALL GO JUDGING 1ST OFF I DONT SEE HER ASKING FOR NO DONATIONS AND SHE COULD ENJOY DOING THIS AND PROLLY WAS DOING THIS LONG BEFORE GABBY WAS IN THE MOVIE PRECIOUS AND I MEAN LIKE HOW MUCH DID GABBY GET FOR HER ROLE IN THE MOVIE? IT'S NOT LIKE IT WAS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. SHEESH!


Iwontbebad

JUST LIKE YALL SAID RAY J WOULD PICK PLATNUM BUT PICKED MZ. BERRY AND AINT HEARD YALL RETRACT SH.IT OR NOTHING LIKE THAT SO I DEF DONT BELIEVE ERRYTHANG ON THIS PIECE. YO.


Naya21

sry mto, u late fred...gabby already said this in an interview and her mom doesnt do it for the money *she can sing tho* follow me on twitter @yahighnessnaya


silky1700

@RotorRooter, damn thats alot of pies...And were is the damn Rasberry pie huh?


TheRose

Well that is how folks get found. But I guess she was tired of that 9-5. Sometimes being your own business person means going out on a limb. RKelly was found in the subways singing.

Hopefully Gabby can make it big and help momma out.


doLLbabiieaLLie3

YO..SHE LOOKS LiKE JAMES BROWN.



shayun23

all of you are idiots she is lypsynching the song. STUPID!!!


DAAANGSHEBAD

OK SO IM SCROLLING DOWN THE COMMENTS AND I SEE "APPLECUTIE" MTO WILL BAN OUT THE WORD S-H-I-T BUT IT WONT BAN HER PICTURE!?

LOOKING LIKE A DAMN SHAR PEI DOG (YOU KNOW THE ONE WITH ALL THE ROLLS AND EXTRA SKIN)


mustardseeds27

WOW! Her mother can sing.


uniqueSag

THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! IF YOU LIVE IN THE TRI STATE AREA YOU WOULD KNOW THAT THAT'S THE SUBWAY IS AN OUTLET FOR UP AND COMING ARTIST AS WELL AS GOOD EXPOSER. WHY WOULDN'T SHE HAVE A TIP CUP? SHE IS ENTERTAINING AND DOING A DAMN GOOD JOB @ IT SO STFU MTO!!!!!

AND WHO THE HELL SAID THAT WAS HER MOTHER YA BASTIDS!

FRED HAS SO MUCH SELF HATE AND IS RACIST TOWARDS HIS OWN RACE! PIECE OF TURD WITH GLASSES LOOKIN AZZ


Tqirl

hahahahaha thats all i qotta say


bourgie_girl

um...her daughter is an oscar nominee....why is she doing this?


WISEWIFE

she sounds pretty good. actually very good. btw rotorrooter is a dumb a$s! and corny too! MTO could have shown her a lil more respect by wording the headline a lil different. but i guess that was mto's bias selfhating purpose. anyway nice voice GS's MAMA.


hiHES

she can sing


Dreayonn

Well I think it shows good character this woman can still bring herself down and perform in a Subway station while her daughter is doing movies and winning awards. Very talented lady by the way.


baldwinvillage

all yall on here callin that woman ugly need to be ashamed.....half yall only pretty because our race has been mixed up with indian,white,etc. thank god u look the way u look,i'm sure u got an aunt or grandma dat aint so pretty


RotorRooter

@silky1700: Sorry, can't talk. Have too much pie in my mouth (including raspberry).

LOL!!!!!


RotorRooter

@silky1700: Sorry, can't talk. Have too much pie in my mouth (including raspberry).

LOL!!!!!


swtj

I've seen her before in the subway. Gabby already spoke about this in several interviews btw.


Ayvian

She's not slumming people, she's just singing because she wants to. Nothing wrong with that...



twanali

THIS IS NOT NEW NEWS....THIS WAS REVEALVED ON OPRAH WHEN SHE DID THE "PRECIOUS" INTERVIEW...WHEN THE MOVIE IST CAME OUT...


CunningANDStunning

Duh MTO. But didn't she use to sing on Broadway?? & she turned down a role in Precious as Precious's mom. Ain't nobody on MTO on this lady's or Gabby's level..so STFU.


emmettmays85

ewww she look just like her


new211

I have missed my train MANY of times listening to this lady sing while I wait for the Long Island Rail Road, and those trains run on the hour. Man I bought one of her CDs, this lady can SANG.


iGoesHam

WTH!!!


JoAnna_Jolie

IS THAT REALLY HER MOM??? CAUSE THEY LOOK JUST ALIKE....


blackbeautyanddiva

im late with this one...never knew her mother sing in the subways...she sounds really good... nothing wrong with it...r kelly use to sing on subways at and at bustops


Renae2010

beautiful voice


Coffeecolor

She's probably done that to put food on their table many a days!...It was honest work,and it showcases the talent GOD gave her all at the same time..An audience is an audience!..Of course if she's STILL doing this, it's becoz of her love for singing.


Supreme21

Her mom should not be living like that when her daughter is making that Hollywood paper. Damn shame!


MoNYCa

She probably makes between $300-$500 a day, tax free. Thanks to MTO putting her on blast, now she is no longer a nameless face in the crowd. Now that people know her daughter is an Academy Award nominated actress they are going to think she does not need their money and won't contribute. Additionally, the IRS will now probably be on her ass.

Way to go MTO, good way to kill Gabby's mother's career. Why don't ya'll go and find some real news!!!!! SNITCHES!!!!


CL101

YALL LATE MTO STOP TRYNA PLAY HER HATERS!!!! HER MOTHER WAS DOING THIS WAY BEFORE "PRECIOUS" WAS EVEN THOUGHT OF...GET UR FACTS TOGETHER LOSERS!!!!!!!!


The_Lady

she needs to hit up American Idol...


nastyone2all

this is old news she said that in an interview that she was very proud of her mom doing that. they can make a lot of money if they are good. (which she is)


ItsANewDay

I would have been surprised if she could not sing. She has that "you better stand back because I'm about to start singing" look to her.



privy

Ummmmm MTO is mad late. This was on tv months ago.


phillylove41

On the real though...it doesn't really matter how well you can sing...this vain-ass society wants to see youth and/or a sexy body to go along with the voice! Her dream may have been a deferred one...so if she can make money getting her voice known in this forum, then do dat!!


sexyme0613

ppl will do anything for the almighty dollar......including singing under the nasty dirty subway with a bunch of crazy's......instead of working under the table..... she's working underground.....hope she's paying her self-employment taxes

Hope shes not the one portrayed in the movie


blkwmnncali

Old news they had that on oprah months ago


msfirebrown

she can blow but how about a real job


Veronica_Lucky

Sexyme she isn't doing it for money. She was a school teacher before then, and she use to sing at broadway shows. For, you people saying "why is she doing this?" Because some people still likes to entertain people regardless of the status of someone in their family.


Ms_Jae1

Make that Money however u Gotta!! Atleast she aint just sittin on her ass like half these other Damn ppl in this world!!

Follow me on Twitter Ms_Jae1


smileorange

she sounds great and those people make a lot pf untaxed money.So don't turn up your nose on street performing.


Jo-An

I see this woman some times at Union Square OMG this woman has some powerful vocals...She does look alot like Gabby. Please hook up the woman Gabby....


kees

toro2525

MochaDreams

Well, momma won't have to do that much longer if she doesn't want to... the dollars should be rollin' in right about now.


lola10

This is late news....when she went 2 the oprah show she mention that her mother sings n it was shown as well....


Ambrosia-sweetz

Mother is a talented singer, and daughter is a talented actress (and probably can sing too). But the hater comments keep coming, cuz she's big and dark skinned huh? People are so basic these days.


TaHeeHee

Nothing to look at but she can really sing. I want more.


BrownSkin83

Sounds good


dredlocdiva

She has a beautiful voice.


maestroceo
