Where is velma from good times

While the video showed how much Brittany resembles her mother, her beautiful voice also showed she inherited Stanis' incredible talent and proved that indeed the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Beauty and talent are not the only qualities in Stanis' arsenal.

She is also a fashion trendsetter, a quality that many people observed during her days portraying Thelma on "Good Times. During a interview with Essence, Stanis gave an insight into how much input she had in Thelma's outfits. She revealed she was a dancer before joining "Good Times" and usually wore leotards over tights. Hence, her outfits were always fitted. However, when she returned to the set, they made her wear big pants and jeans, which she could not stand because it made her uncomfortable.

Therefore, she asked the stylist to take all the pockets out of the jeans because she wanted them to lay smooth on her hips. Stanis also asked the stylist to tailor the legs all the way to the knees to make them fit like a glove.

This was how Thelma's clothes came to be and how the tight jeans originated. Stanis owes much of her success to her mother, Eula Stanislaus, who nurtured her and helped her believe in herself. She reflected on her past while speaking at a Black History event last year. The year-old admitted she was not always confident about herself as a child and advised people not to let fear stop them from walking into their destiny. Stanis' mom struggled with Alzheimer's disease and died from dementia in The experience impacted the actress and made her embrace another role of an Alzheimer's advocate.
