man,..this was my first crush when i was a shawty.

i had the donna summer naked but not revealing in a hof legend champagne glass poster.


shame gay motherfukkers got to claim her legscy as their's,...

as i grew up i hated that gay shyt for that too.

can't even check out donna summer without some deephouse fakkit all on her swag.

shyt was disgusting,..but anyway,..besides that i loved donna summer.

she was ine of the few attractive blackwomen in the public ee who was dressed sexy and provacative.

where she wasn't in the neon eye shadow and wack andrygonous grace jones mohawk.

they always threw sisters in back then,..to make them unattractice.

while white women got to be all glammed up.

donna summer broke down a lot of walls for visuals of attractive black women in media when i was a shawty.

And another one.

R.I.P.

I was digging through a stack of her records the other day too.

i have a bunch too..

she was the pornstyle queen of disco and she couldve been the first Madonna, but her mom named her Ladonna.
