Anna and I have been close friends since 1956. She is the godmother to my 2 oldest children, Shaun and Eboni.

She has been a star in my sight all her life. She is warm, witty, down to earth and genuine. We attended religious instruction, girl scouts and everything else together. When she was accepted into the HS of Performing Arts I knew she'd make it.

I was so happy that others got a chance to enjoy her talent. I always thought that her role as Thelma on Amen was one of the funniest characters on a black sitcom.

There are so many negative black roles in the sitcoms and I have always been proud to allow my daughter to see her godmother, Anna Maria Horseford, in a positive (even if not so bright), "non-hoochie-mama" role like Thelma.

Anna has never been frumpy like Thelma........just beautiful....inside and out.

I recently saw the movie "Friday after Next" and there was Anna Maria Horseford". I didn't see the other 'Fridays' so I wasn't expecting her. I'm sorry that her role wasn't bigger. I would like to see more of her work. I definitely think she can carry a show herself. Amazingly that none of the cast from Amen got their own series. Thelma could have taken off with a show of her own. A real comedy treasure.

If you see "Anna" can you please tell her from me that I enjoyed her on Amen and she was so comical in her role. You don't know how many times I felt for her character. That's good acting!

As for you......... I'm glad you came on here and spoke about Anna. She has many fans. Thank you..... :wave:

How was Anna Maria written back into he movie Friday after next since she was not in the second Friday?

I haven't seen the other "Fridays" but she played Da Da's mother in this Friday.

Now i know I don't want to see it now. How is she going to be Ice Cube's mother in the first Friday and Da Da's mother in Friday after Next. Doesn't make any sense at all.

Sorry my mistake, as I said I didn't see the other Fridays so I was not in tune with who was who.

What Is Anna Maria Horseford doing Today if anyone know let us know.


Take Care and God Bless

Any time you see or speak to Anna Marie, please let her know that she has many fans out there, hoping to see more of her work. Wishing you and her, health and happiness in all endeavors.:wave: :talk: :seeya:

I liked Anna's character on Amen as Thelma. She got on my nerves though always pursuing Reuben. She was Ice Cube's mother in Friday After Next Solomon. She wasn't Day Day's mother. In that movie, it looks like her breasts got bigger LOL. She was in Master P's Lockdown movie as the prison warden which was surprising. She's a good actress.

Roz Ryan does have a sitcom. She is on with Anthony Anderson playing his mom. But i did not realize that thelma was that old. I thought she was in her twentys when she was on the show. I found out that Roz Ryan was the youngest of the cast. I remember seeing Thelma with her goddaughter in a issue of jet. Is that your daughter be cause she was real cute.

She is beautiful and is seen as the mother and/or grandmother figure on the sitcom and in other roles with her!! God bless her!!
