Naturi Naughton and La La Anthony Drive ‘Power’ Fans Crazy with New Photos: ‘Late Nights With Tasha’

“Late nights with Lakeisha and late nights with Tasha.”

Those were the words used by Naturi Naughton and La La Anthony to describe some photos they both posted.

Undoubtedly, they’ve developed cult followings for playing Tasha St. Patrick and Lakeisha Grant on the crime series “Power,” which has become the most watched program on the Starz network that houses it.

The ladies posted three photos in all, which were taken on the set in wardrobe, based on the clothing rack in the background.

One shows them doing their best b-girl poses, and it looks like they’re a fierce rap duo that’s about to hit the stage. There’s also another image that shows La La maintaining that same cool pose, while Naturi throws up the peace sign and acts a bit silly.

Plus, there’s closeup shot of the two actresses flashing big smiles, and folks seemed to really love all of the photos.

“I love you strong ladies,” one person commented.

“Naturally beautiful ladies,” wrote someone else. “Style, class and fashionable.”

“Two of the baddest queens,”  a third person wrote.

Of course, the photos also whetted the collective appetites of “Power” viewers across the globe, since the season five finale was left so open-ended.

Lela Loren’s character Angela was shot by Tommy, for example, when he tried to take out Ghost. And that was right after she tried to get Tasha, Tommy and Ghost to align their stories before the U.S. Attorney’s office closes in on them.

“Bring back ‘Power,'” one viewer begged.

“So excited. It can’t come quick enough,” someone else wrote.

“I’ma need Tasha to find Terry Silver and buss a cap in his ass,” someone else commented, referring to Ghost’s lawyer on the show.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

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.

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.
