LUCK BE A LADY FOR NEW STARS
The divas of rhythm and blues got the nod in Hollywood on Monday night as nominations were announced for the seventh annual Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards nominations.
Artists were nominated in nine separate categories for honours in rhythm and blues, rap, and gospel, and revealed on the set of the weekly U-S T-V program, Soul Train, on the Paramount Pictures lot.
The nominations were dominated by hot newcomers - Jill Scott, Sunshine Anderson, and super-trio 3LW received three nominations each, while J Records' super-gifted debut artist Alicia Keys received two nominations.
Other female artists receiving recognition from the Lady of Soul Awards voters included India Arie, Dream, Changing Faces, and Sunday, along with girl-group favourite, Destiny's Child.
The winners are selected from votes cast by radio programmers, active recording artists and key retail personnel.
A special achievement award will be presented to veteran performer Patti LaBelle, and the Entertainer of the Year Award will go to critically acclaimed singer Jill Scott.
First lady of rap, Eve, soul crooner Luther Vandross, T-V host Leeza Gibbons and the regular host of Soul Train, Shemar Moore, will front the awards ceremony.
The show will be taped on August 28, 2001 in Santa Monica California.
