I interviewed her. I'm a journalist and I interviewed her in London, just after Miseducation had dropped. I only had about half an hour with her but then I went to her concert in Brixton and it was amazing. I also met her dad. He used to videotape the entire interview whenever a journalist interviewed Lauryn. I don't know whether he still does that. So I guess he has me on videotape somewhere in his collection! ;D Wow, you're sooooooo lucky !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How does it feel interviewing your favorite artist ? I would have a heart attack, and couldn't find my words. LOL. This is great. I think you should interview her now. ;D ;D ;D It was a very interesting experience. She was warm, intelligent, interesting. She wasn't diva-ish at all.

So, since you're in the music industry, do u know the real reason, her album is taking so long to be released ? I've moved on from music journalism. I still have a few contacts and could try to get the scoop on what's really going on though. I'll see if I can find anything out. I do remember that when Unplugged came out, Columbia were apparently tearing their hair out. It was not the sort of album they wanted Lauryn to put out at all. I think they regarded her as a law unto herself from that point on.

always good to have ppl here who already been to her concerts and met her personally. she has a very good vibe around her! i was totally blown away at her london concert! that is why i finally decided to have an LH tattoo. and yes, she looks very nice after 4 children! i hope i will look like that after 4 children! (i wish!!!!! i really wish) and its very good for her if she is vegetarian. im one as well and i do yoga (kind of a martial art I guess) so hopefully im on the way to look as fit as she does

hey. it looks amazing. I might upload it here! its rather symbolise this time of my life in the last, lets say, 8 years. Her music was always with me so i decided to have the miseducation of LH's album cover picture tattood on me. I love tattoos and my 'tattoo artist' (who is by the way loved the reason and allowed me to listen to Ms Hill's music while he was working on it) so he did a great job. i got a lot of response from ppl that they love my tat as its very unique but they dont really understand the reason so i try to kinda cover it all the time. but i just love it and i think, because it does have a very strong meaning to me, it was the best thing i could have choose. oops i have no idea again how to upload pictures. i did it once and actually i think i once uploaded it here.i will try to find it so you'll see it Sybill

L's not a vegetarian. She eats chicken and hamburgers. I think she's just naturally skinny and also works out a lot

Her metabolism must be very fast. That's why she won't put on weight dramatically

Its just that I thought that she was one,cus I saw an old interview she did on Muchmusic with Master T and she was talking about how Rohan is a vegetarian and only eats tofu and bean curbs. LOL.
