Billy Dee Williams

MICHAEL JACKSON DIDN’T LIVE UP TO EBONY’S PREDICTION


Our much admired correspondent from The WOW Report, Stephen Saban, discovered this amusing Ebony magazine article. We ADORE looking back at predictions of the future (why did no one predict cell phones?) In 1985, Ebony hired a Chicago artist to illustrate how celebrities would look in the year 2000. It’s funny how Michael Jackson did NOT live up to this portrait, which more closely resembles Billy Dee Williams in his prime.

Billy Dee Williams certainly dresses up for a trip to the grocery store. No crocs here – red patent leather shoes, if you will. Billy was on a mission to return a faulty soap dispenser to Bristol Farms in Beverly Hills. We’re thinking they didn’t give him a hard time. Watch for Billy on “Private Practice” this season – he’ll play a patient of Dr Sam Bennett (Taye Diggs.)
