Where Are They Now? 10 Sassy And Silly Sidekicks From Some Of Our Favorite Black Sitcoms

September 20th, 2012 - By Clarke Gail Baines

 

Jenna von Oÿ

Jenna has been the go-to sidekick homie for years now, making numbers as names acceptable by playing Six LeMeure on “Blossom,” but for black folks who weren’t fans of that awesome show, you probably know von Oy from her time as Stevie van Lowe on “The Parkers.” Stevie came onto the show as the child of a wealthy family trying to make her own lane, and wound up being in a group with Kim and their friend, T, called “Free Style Unity.” Near the end of the show, her character studies at UCLA and starts working with Kim in her successful fashion design endeavors.

    I just saw Haywood Nelson several weeks ago when I went to a taping of the Dr. Oz show. He works on that show. Nice guy – I was so shocked to see him though, it was just so random – all I was expecting to see was Dr Oz and I kept looking at the guys with the crew and I knew he looked familar, but I couldn’t put two and two together. Then, all of a sudden it hit me and my mouth almost fell open (I used to have a crush on him back in the day when he was on What’s Happening). Anyway, would have loved to take a picture, but they have a strict no cameras/phone policy and I didn’t want my stuff taken. The Scientogist info shocks me though – I never would have guessed.

      Makes no sense I know. Try opening tabs with each number so the page doesn’t have to reload!
