Lauryn Hill made a rare appearance in the last place we’d expect to see her, at Martha Stewart’s signing for her new book, Martha Stewart’s Cooking School: Lessons for the Home Cook. Hill came to meet the Domestic Diva at Williams-Sonoma in New Jersey and brought along her kids, who were snapped wearing Abercrombie & Fitch and eating cookies.
Lauryn Hill: My inspiration, the woman that keeps me sane when I can't take anymore. "Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" is byfar the BEST album in the past 20 years. No doubt.
Yeah, she does look a little rough in that picture, but I mean, people let things happen to them. She is still the Queen no matter what. Rihanna, Ciara, Beyonce, Alicia, not one of them compares to the realness that Lauryn Hill has.
Who is Lauryn Hill? I know she's a singer, but what are some of her big hits?
WHO IS LAURYN HILL?
The only female in the great group "The Fugees" who released multiple hit albums and have sold millions world wide and in the U.S. Lauryn Hill is one of the best female rappers/singers in the game who have sold over 10+ million in the US on one album alone and has sold over 18+ million world wide. She starred in "Sister Act" which was by far one of the best movies of the 90's. She had multiple #1 hit singles which include "Doo Wop (That Thing)", "Ex-Factor", and more. She hasnt released an album in 10 years. Her last recorded song was "Lose Myself" from the "Surfs Up" soundtrack. She also did a song with Joss Stone called "Music". She is currently married to one of the Marley boys and has 4 kids (about to be 5). In 1999, Lauryn Hill was sued for not giving credit to her writers/producers for her first album. Therefore, many writers/producers wont work with her. Lauryn Hill has inspired so many people, and to this day, she is still a household name in the African-American community. Lauryn Hill, Ms. Hill, is the all time great. Nothing even compares.
You're not the only one man. I mean, Lauryn Hill is my inspiration. If It wasn't for her, I probably wouldn't be the singer that I am today. To see her looking like that is just a shame because she has SOOOOOOOOO much talent. I mean, everybody on ATRL argues about Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney, Christina, Ciara, and so on. But none of them come close to Lauryn Hill.
She just looks like shes down and out. Like, every morning she wakes up feeling like her life is pointless. Her hair looks a mess, her lips look like they just been burnt by drugs, and her skin is just crazy. Lauryn was so beautiful back in the day. I mean, come on. She had AMAZING beauty.
When I read about her, I just feel like there are so many people who can help her, but arent. What is Wyclef doing to help her? What is Pras doing? Rohan? Her label? Her family? EVERYBODY. She has millions of fans in the world who would love to help her in any way possible. If I was by her side, she wouldn't have any time to look that bad.
10 years and only 1 solo album. I've been waiting for 10 year to get some new Lauryn Hill material. But even if she does come back now, her music will: A. Not sell because she hasnt been in the game for a while. B. Her singles wont do so well because thats how much the industry has changed.

LAURYN WE NEED YOU
I read an article about her in People magazine recently. Wyclef spoke in it. He said that he had tried to collaborate with her and to help her ease back into the industry, but she refuses. He said she's gone a little nuts.
I think she still is beautiful, and I don't think Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney, Christina () or Ciara would look this good without makeup.
The day Michael Jackson makes a comeback is the day Lauryn Hill should be making a comeback.
