Naturi Naughton Has ‘Power’ Fans Riled Up After Posting Picture as Tasha St. Patrick

Naturi Naughton is giving fans another glimpse of what they can expect from “Power” season 6 with her newest Instagram post.

Days after complaining about the early 4:20 a.m. call time to shoot the hit Starz series, the actress uploaded a photo in an-all black outfit only her character Tasha St. Patrick can pull off.

“‘Hello World! Are you ready for me?’ Love, Tasha😉❤️ #PowerTV #Season6,” Naughton said in the caption of the Tuesday, Oct. 16 photo as the crew gets set up behind her.

Fans were left on the edge of their seats in September when they saw Angela, Ghost’s mistress, jump in front of the protagonist to save him from a bullet Tommy had with his name on it.

While showrunner Courtney Kemp confirmed to TV Line in September that the actress who plays Angela, Lela Loren, will return to the show, she said, “I can’t say what she’s doing.”

Meanwhile, Naughton has teased fans about what else they can expect in the new set of episodes. On Friday, Oct. 5, the actress uploaded a photo on her Instagram page with co-star Lala Anthony who plays Naughton’s on-screen friend-turned-rival LaKeisha.

“Are they friends again??? That is the question… 🤔 #TashaAndLakeisha #powertv #setlife #season6 Fabulous hair by @takishahair & gorgeous makeup @makeupbyanitagibson ❤️ #TashaGlam photo cred: @josephsikora4 😜,” Naughton captioned the Oct. 5 post.

LaKeisha was nearly gunned down in season five and it was on an order handed down by Tasha herself. Still, it may not spell the end of their relationship.

Meanwhile, fans have been sharing how excited they are to watch all the drama unfold on the crime drama.

“F— yeah!!! Can’t wait for season 6!!! 🙌🏿”

“Cut the crap, bring it’ll… 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“You guys teasing us with all these clips…..does this mean POWER 2018 SEASON 6 #power @naturi4real @omarihardwickofficial. True fan needs to know👹👺😛😛 if not …..STOP TEASING ME IN BERNIE VOICE!!!😃😛😛”

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
