In this somber episode of Hollywood Live, Tanya Hart reflects on the passing of iconic actor John Amos at the age of 84. Best known for his role as the stern yet loving patriarch on Good Times, America’s first sitcom to feature a two-parent Black family, Amos also starred in the groundbreaking series Roots, which captivated audiences in the late 1970s. With a career spanning over five decades, Amos made his mark on television, starting with his role as Gordy, the weatherman, on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Despite recent family disputes, his legacy remains one of incredible talent and dedication to his craft. Our condolences go out to his family during this difficult time.
Tanya also dives into the escalating allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs. In a shocking twist, a Houston-based attorney, Tony Busby, has filed accusations of sexual assault and abuse against Combs involving 120 individuals, including a 9-year-old boy. These claims have intensified the controversy surrounding the music mogul, though Diddy maintains his innocence and has expressed his willingness to testify at his own trial. As the story unfolds, Tanya advises listeners to stay tuned for updates.
