I loved her in Moesha and The Parkers but I'll always remember best for that classic line in Friday "People say I look like Janet Jackson"
This is sad though, RIP

Awww, man.....RIP. She was hilarious. I'm shocked that she died from cervical cancer. That's one of the most preventable and "curable" cancers there is.
