Malinda Williams acted as 'Bird' in the TV Series 'Soul Food' 74 episodes from 2000-2004, and Nia Long acted as 'Bird" in the 'Soul Food' movie in 1997.
Man Malinda is still beautiful. She's in that class with Halle Berry, Regina Hall, Regina King and Nia Long. All in their 50's and still looking great.
Probably from the same African ancestors that were split up and sold to separate plantations. We have alot of these connections here in America and the Caribbean. It's a thought that I have everytime I walk pass people who look like me or people I know. Tribal DNA matters
She must be the issue. I could be wrong but, sounds like she's the keep up with appearances type of person once she's attracted. " I didn't think I should take the role cause I had just gotten married" girl please, you're nut job.
She was an amazing actress and I do believe the 3rd time is a charm for her. Marrying young without any experiences to life and the wrong type of friends can definitely steer you down the wrong path when it comes to marriage. Blessings to her and her husband
The After School Special she was in (What About Your Friends) is a classic one... a very talented actress who would be getting a lot more bigger roles if it was all based on talent alone and not rituals and casting couches. I would love to see her in a family based network (ABC, CBS, NBC) sitcom as the mother of a positive family along the lines of 227.
I read an interview she did with Jet magazine back in the day. She spoke about her divorce (with Mekhi Phifer) and how he made her feel regarding her appearance. This was during her prime, AND she has always been beautiful. How dare he? Oh well, wasn't meant to be. Wishing her the best.
So she played, “Bird” in the tv series and he played, “Lem” in the movie version of, “Soul Food”…. Wow, I never knew that they were married before. I love me some, Malinda Williams. She is absolutely gorgeous…💯😍🥰❤️
Please people quit putting God in mess. I am woman tried to stay in a marriage where the treated me like dirt. He cheated and abused me physically and tried to kill me. I had no choice but leave or die.
Same. Coming from someone separated legally and literally (by 2 states) I can’t even fix my mind to want anyone else. Regardless of how much I don’t want him, I’m still married and God is watching.
I love that she put herself first for happiness. It's better to move in a relationship than to continue to stay knowing it will never work and/or get better. She's beautiful and deserve to live in peace mentally and physically. Kudos to her.
My dad was a screenplay writer. He wrote dead President and in too deep. Another screenplay you wrote was Laurel Avenue in HBO miniseries that Melinda Williams was in in the early 90s, and I’ve been in love with her ever since.😂😂😂💯💯❤️❤️ she still so beautiful so happy for her and her new endeavors with her new love of her life🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
First of all, Malinda is beautiful and youthful. Second of all, Irony of her marry Mehki, who played 'Lem' in the soul food movie. Third of all, Her finding love at 53 is so beautiful. Teaching me to never give up. Last of all, I wish her & her family much success.
🌹🌸💐🌺🌷 most definitely deserves her flowers right now 💯 she’s a very talented and beautiful queen 🖤👑 but I was so clueless about her marriage to mahki or DNice 🧐
How's malindas network worth 2M give or take😮this goes to show how Hollyweird still not allowing blks to fully work, because she's 0ne of the best actresses that ever act smh at Hollyweird
I always loved those two!!! Especially when they played in The Uninvited Guest in 1999. That shit will get clowned in the society today lol but That's one of those movies you can watch with your family and crack up off of how low budget it is and still love every bit of it ❤
@@NevinReid-zy4ry hell yea that movie was stupid as hell lol But yea man... I googled Leprechaun in the hood the other day. I'm going around the house singing Lep in the hood, come to do..no...good! Lmmfao
I loved watching her in so many things growing up! She was always one of those popular actresses that was in everything but didn’t know her name until much laterrrr
Pretty women always have vultures for friends and partners always have a bunch of insecure people around them I’m so happy to see she kept her kindness and it shows ❤
Melinda is sooo naturally pretty, she has a cute baby face and perfect features and skin tone. I’m glad she and Mekhi are at least able to have a good co-parenting relationship.
Audio is non existent in some parts of the interview,I love and respect her as an actress,she comes off as genuine and well rounded,my fantasy date 🌹 they have 90 day fiance,how about 90 days with your favorite fan T.O.N.Y),😊😊😊🎉 Blessings Malinda
I always liked her. I was surprised she was older than me. Not that I'm a queen of the 70s. I just knew I was older than her. She is a pleasure to watch her on whatever she plays in. Keep on Black Queen!
FYI ~ there are parts in this video that there isn’t any audio. I guess you were having technical difficulties. I wasn’t sure if you were aware of this. Stay Blessed. 💛💐💛
I am so happy her private life never really took over her professional life. Melinda’s acting is so phenomenal she deserves all the shine a person can get!!! I look forward to her roles she nails it every time. I would like to add no marriage is perfect & D Nice cheated on Melinda with a woman got her pregnant they stayed together for a few years (no longer together) now he is dating actress Jennifer Freeman (My Wife & Kids).😞
Malinda Williams acted as 'Bird' in the TV Series 'Soul Food' 74 episodes from 2000-2004, and Nia Long acted as 'Bird" in the 'Soul Food' movie in 1997.
Do you know if the show is airing on any network?
Crazy.. and Nia Long played wife with Mekhi
@@1neofakindcreationsft
It might be on Tubi @@1neofakindcreations
Facts been wondering what happen when her a lauryn left the tv
Man Malinda is still beautiful. She's in that class with Halle Berry, Regina Hall, Regina King and Nia Long. All in their 50's and still looking great.
I was todays old finding out she was married to Meki Phiffer
Me too😒
I knew but I didn't know they broke up, I thought they were still married. 😂
Me too ❤
Facts…me too
Me too. Never knew that.
I met her at a mall after Soul Food came out. She was unbelievably genuine and kind. A real person.
SHE IS "STILL" BEAUTIFUL WITH THAT ELECTRIC SMILE!! 🫶🏾💯🫶🏾💯
Why you say she has a electric smile
Malinda's hair is always so beautiful!!! 5:42 that style is so pretty!!
She does her own hair too
Sooo beautiful like her texture or something is sooo pretty
She looks like a mixture of Lauryn Hill + Regina King combined. 💕
maybe Nia Long and Lauryn Hill.
Yesss, I agree…. With a dash of Nia Long (when she has short hair)
Oh yeah I can see that
Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder both of the sisters of beautiful
Omg so true I see Nia too 😮
Malinda is a beautiful actress. I'm glad she found love again 💕
She looks like a baby doll. She is so beautiful 😍 they were a beautiful couple, I hate they didn't work out.
She's such an underrated actress. She's and Monica Calhoun are 2 of my favorite actresses. They get those roles though. 😁
Underrated in Hollywood don't exist. She had values and morals and that is a blessing
She looks just like Lauryn Hill to me and I love the Two of them
Probably from the same African ancestors that were split up and sold to separate plantations. We have alot of these connections here in America and the Caribbean. It's a thought that I have everytime I walk pass people who look like me or people I know. Tribal DNA matters
Yup!
Maybe one day the two can get together and take a picture together that would be wonderful
Definitely!
She’s prettier than Lauren Hill but I could see it.
I LOVE HOW SHE TALKS ......
Very good actress who needs her flowers
I. Never. Knew. She. Was. Married. To. These. Two. Men! Now, I'm trying to figure out how both of them fumbled her? She seems like a MAJOR catch!
Everything that glitters isn't always gold ✨️
She must be the issue. I could be wrong but, sounds like she's the keep up with appearances type of person once she's attracted. " I didn't think I should take the role cause I had just gotten married" girl please, you're nut job.
Maybe she fumbled them…

Yes it is a classic
She looks so young age well like fine wine beautiful
Fine wine always gets better with time 😊
Always felt she is underrated.
I loved her in daddy's lil girls and many more films. Such a natural ⭐️
I love her on soul Food
Didn't she play n the movie star as Gladys knight niece?
Mekiah saying "there's no proof of that" made me believe he cheated 😢
Hope she found real Love in the new one❤
I read an interview she did with Jet magazine back in the day. She spoke about her divorce (with Mekhi Phifer) and how he made her feel regarding her appearance. This was during her prime, AND she has always been beautiful. How dare he? Oh well, wasn't meant to be. Wishing her the best.
EXACTLY, he ain’t all that frfr😒😒😒😒😌😌😌😌😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨🤧💯
I've always loved Malinda. Wish her all the best. The Undersheppard is one very good black movie. They need to make more of that caliber.
I found out years ago that her and Mekhi were married. She’s beautiful inside & out.
I found out today
I used to looooooove Meki UNTIL their divorce! He was doing magazine interviews trying to make her look bad. But only made himself look bad ughhh
Every time they had a bougie character who had a slick mouth? It was her who played them. I always had a crush on her.
She forgot to mention the little sister in A Thin Line Between Love And Hate.
First Sunday && Daddy’s Little Girls #too
I neeeeeverr knew those 2 were ever married 😭
Bless their marriage
So beautiful 😍
So she played, “Bird” in the tv series and he played, “Lem” in the movie version of, “Soul Food”…. Wow, I never knew that they were married before. I love me some, Malinda Williams. She is absolutely gorgeous…💯😍🥰❤️
She favors the lovely Lauryn Hill I love both of them
Yesss 😮
She grew with her roles! Never aged a bit still one of the best non problematic blactresses in Hollywood!
Television does these celebrities no justice .. in person she is even more super beautiful
🤩🤩🤩
I'm glad her story ends on a POSITIVE note.
We all love Malinda so beautiful, intelligent and talented...whatever she wore, she rocked it amazing!
Please people quit putting God in mess. I am woman tried to stay in a marriage where the treated me like dirt. He cheated and abused me physically and tried to kill me. I had no choice but leave or die.
As you should have sis and you right God don't Bless no mess.
Honey it sounds like she has been working her behind off she didn’t have time for a marriage or a relationship😅😅But we love her acting abilities❤
It makes no difference if you are married and in the same house…..you stepping out is adultery! Leave it to a man to say something like this.
Same. Coming from someone separated legally and literally (by 2 states) I can’t even fix my mind to want anyone else. Regardless of how much I don’t want him, I’m still married and God is watching.
Right but the accuse a woman of cheating if she is separated and dating but not divorced....it be the hypocrisy that I cant stand.......
As soon as they wana cheat, all of a sudden they are separated/having marital issues
I love that she put herself first for happiness. It's better to move in a relationship than to continue to stay knowing it will never work and/or get better. She's beautiful and deserve to live in peace mentally and physically. Kudos to her.

Soulful Screen TV, This is perfect! I subscribed right away!
I was born Dec 23, 1970 in Union County NJ also. My high school played sports against her high school 😄

Why did he seem so happy about the toxic relationship?
He’s a lustful dominant man
Am I the only one that can't hear Phifer interview
No, I was about to ask the same thing
Me neither 😂
No
I heard it just fine…
@@MrBean617 I bet you did
“My name is D-Nyce…da D-Nice….MYNA-MYNA-MYNA-MYNAME is D-Nyce…takin’ outchu suckaz an’ you don’t know how I did it!”
Yeah, I used to listen to this back in the day. 💃🏽🎶
"There was no proof of that." 😮🤔🥴
I loved watching her in so many things growing up! She was always one of those popular actresses that was in everything but didn’t know her name until much laterrrr
I always was big on her being she lived so close to me. I always wanted to meet her she is gorgeous
If you are too young to know soul food was a series after the movie, please stop commenting
I thought soul food was in restaurants…🥴😁✌️
@@preciousjacob6108 🤣
She would have been perfect to play Lauryn Hill biopic honestly I think she can still do it
She’s such a beautiful woman! Best of wishes to her!
Go glad she found love.
Now SHE IS DEFINITELY UNDERRATED AND UNSUNG!!!! YOU GO GIRL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pretty women always have vultures for friends and partners always have a bunch of insecure people around them I’m so happy to see she kept her kindness and it shows ❤
Melinda is sooo naturally pretty, she has a cute baby face and perfect features and skin tone. I’m glad she and Mekhi are at least able to have a good co-parenting relationship.
It seems Malinda gets married shortly after meeting her husbands. Maybe she needed more time to get to know them first.
This made me see the movie and tv series soul food differently 😂 I had no idea they were married.
Me either
Audio is non existent in some parts of the interview,I love and respect her as an actress,she comes off as genuine and well rounded,my fantasy date 🌹 they have 90 day fiance,how about 90 days with your favorite fan T.O.N.Y),😊😊😊🎉 Blessings Malinda
Was literally just thinking about her yesterday bc haven't heard anything from her lately
Damn Mekhi ... I knew that smile was deadly! I love the both of them!
He looks like he smoked weed from the womb!!
She's so beautiful to me 😍
Agree
Love her!
Yep we remember her 😊
The Woods was me & my girlfriend movie we used to love to watch. Love this movie 🖤🖤🖤🥰🥰🥰
I always liked her. I was surprised she was older than me. Not that I'm a queen of the 70s. I just knew I was older than her. She is a pleasure to watch her on whatever she plays in. Keep on Black Queen!
Beautiful one of my favorites
Beautiful ❤
Her first mistake was to name her son "Immakay"
I always admired her in everything she acted in.
FYI ~ there are parts in this video that there isn’t any audio. I guess you were having technical difficulties. I wasn’t sure if you were aware of this. Stay Blessed.
💛💐💛
She is so pretty
Great Commentary 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it
