I’m sure Berry, Smokey, and Stevie could split the bill for Martha❤❤❤

@HardCold-Alquan Жыл бұрын

Berry flip the whole bill, since he cheated her out of monies made.

Any one of them could easily do it. It’s really kinda sad that such a legend can’t afford to even be honored.

It's absolutely ridiculous that Motown legend Martha Reeves has to raise funds for Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame The group Martha Reeves n Vandella was essential in the success of Motown Motown should pickup the fee Show some respect This was a real singer

Sadly she still tours and the screeches and warbles that emerge from her are excruciating. Pack it in, Martha, and let's remember you when you could sing.

I love Martha Reeves, I met Betty Kelly one of the original Vandella’s when she stayed in the San Fernando Valley.

Betty Kelley was originally a member of the Velvelettes. She replaced original Vandella Annette Beard. Who left to get married.

I love Martha Reeves and Motown and I believe she sued(and won) for back royalties. But this is a bad look that she has to raise money for this…

Although I love her, it's sad that she and other entertainers have to pay for these stars. Now we know why some we thought didn't deserve it got them anyway.

Sounds like a scam to me! Of all the things to pay for in Detroit which is an imploding town send an entourage enjoy top-of-the-line hotels and live a large life while Detroit burns there’s a better use for your money

She deserves First Class gold carpet treatment as much as Elvis the Pelvis because her songs make me happy. If I had the money I'd pay for it out of my retirement pension.
