‘Those Legs’: La La Anthony Wows Fans in Stunning Black Ensemble

“Think Like a Man” actress La La Anthony looked absolutely exquisite at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival in New York.

Anthony joined a host of celebrities in attendance at the annual event that runs though May 5 this year, and they brought out their best formal attire while hitting the yearly Chanel Artists Dinner on Monday. She was resplendent in a black plunging-neck Chanel dress with a pair of black open-toe heels.

She wore her hair in a classic low bun accessorized with crystal hair barrettes. She also opted for a full-glam makeup look, including a dramatic-flared lash and bold red lip.

The 39-year-old shouted out to Tribeca Festival CEO and movie producer Jane Rosenthal in her Instagram caption, while also making mention of her ensemble.

“Thank you to my friend @janetribeca for an amazing night at the TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ARTIST DINNER hosted by Chanel. One of my fav events every year…a little black dress goes a long way…🖤,” Anthony wrote.

Fans were boggled by how beautiful the celeb looked.

“Bonita my favorite look! Sexy twist on a classic 🖤🖤 beautiful and gorgeous indeed like always.”

“Everything about you is Fabulous and those legs 😍😍! Pick me up off the floor….somebody this dress is everything on you!!! 🙌🏾.”

“Lala this lady is classy and beauthful 🔥 she wearing that dress. Much love to you and hubby and son God bless.”

“Damn!!! U become more beautiful everytime I see you! ❤️ Gorgeous love the shoes!”

Besides her dashing looks, Anthony is also known for her extremely successful career. She’s a New York Times Bestseller author, she’s worked as a producer with ITV America, and she currently stars on the hit television series “Power.”

She told Forbes during a recent interview that when it comes to business she learned not to be afraid of seeking knowledge. She noted that was one of the reasons she was so successful.

“In business, you cannot be afraid to ask questions,” she said. “You have to ask to learn, and that has been it for me. Because I’m entering into new ventures and new platforms that I’m not necessarily well-versed in or don’t know everything about, so I need to ask these questions, and that is how I learn.”

Still independent.

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.
