Here’s a message to any youngins out there, who may not be in tune with their ’90s history: Before thick-a-licious Black women were “in” in mainstream media, there was the beautiful Leslie “Big Lez” Segar. Before Serena Williams put sexy, toned, athletic, yet sensual African American female physiques on the map for all the world to salute, there was Big Lez. And of course, before there were Nicki Minaj, Kim Kardashian, Brazilian butt lifts, and booty injections…you guessed it, there was Big Lez.

In addition to being a pillar of natural beauty back then, Big Lez was also gettin’ her dance on in classic videos, including Michael Jackson’s “Remember the Time,” Whitney Houston’s “I’m every Woman,” Mary J.’s “Real Love” & “You Remind Me,” LL Cool J’s, “Around the Way Girl” and a bunch more.

Okay ILOSM fam, now that we’ve caught the younger Old Schoolers up on those Black history fun facts, let us get into what Big Lez has been up to lately. Turns out, for the past couple of decades – since most of us have last seen her – the groundbreaking dancer/choreographer/former Rap City TV host/and has been doing lot. Matter of fact, not only is she busy as all get out, she’s still lookin’ like the sexy 1990’s Lez that we remember!

She Was The “Living Single” Dancer…But Here’s Why Young Folks Have It Twisted

Big Lez was the only female host on Rap City for 7 years before BET let her go. She said, “once I saw [BET] fire Donnie Simpson I knew that any one of us were dispensable (laughs) at any given time.”

Many youngins inaccurately believe Big Lez’s career didn’t start until she danced in the opening credits of the Living Single sitcom…Laaawd.

But Now She’s Doing So Much More

Big Lez Now

As you can see, Big Lez is sexy as ever in her early fifties.

Personal Trainer To Stars
These days Big Lez wears many hats, one of which is that of a fitness instructor for stars like Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, and more.
She encourages everyone to try working your way up too two-a-day worouts:

Big Lez- “#twoadays #workouts these days is the only way – #healthiswealth #tightandright #onamission #fitnessfirst #biglez #earlyriser #letsgo LEZZzzz Go! #getupgetoutandgetsomething”

She’s On The Radio & Exposes Insulting Past Sexual Incident

Lez hosts a Satellite radio show now. During a prior interview, Lez said a member of a popular rap group’s entourage propositioned her for sex in order to get the gig. She proudly told him, ‘”I refuse to suck d— for opportunity.” The next day, she got the job anyway. Go Lez!
