    @@samanthasau4086 The lighting was different back then. People were ALOT lighter in person than they appeared.on the show. She was always very light skinned. Honestly I knew her from around the scene. Now a days they know how to light black people and things are no where near close. Look at the movies and photos from the 70s and 80s u will see that. Also being a Cali girl we do go to the beach and get out in the sun. Afro people DO get tan/darker. As people get older they aren't out in the sun as much. She is just her natural color. Is not that much to read into. She didn't change her color or race. Simply not true!!

    That's my Big Sister (Evette Moss)! And yes, I had the opportunity to dance on Soul Train many times (on the floor, not the risers), because Evette Moss was my sister. And YEP, it definitely helped with the cool factor (took several dates on Soul Train with me)! My friends use to call her "The Shaker"! And if any of you remember "The Bitten Apple" club in Los Angeles (on Wilshire), she hosted/ produced some of the BEST parties there, with many celebrity guest!

    I love that she said "Soul Train is a part of American history." She is right! Don Cornelius (and let's not forget Dick Clark on American Bandstand) were business icons that brought people together to dance--but they were also, at the same time, bringing people of different nationalities together--which, quietly, supported the civil rights movement in this country.

You couldn't miss her and her shimmy out there shining and shimmying like a twinkle star in her sequins and hot pants. You'd think she was taller as long as her legs are, she's definitely one of my favs from Soul Train. And I'm convinced that Soul Train gave them dancers some fountain of youth juice because everybody still looks like they're ready to dance on down the Soul Train line like it's 1979. They haven't aged a bit. 🤣🤣🤣 LOL
