On this day 25 year ago, Living Single made its debut and provided a space on television for Black women to see themselves.
An honest reflection of ambitious Black women working and living in Brooklyn, Living Single‘s Khadijah, Régine, Maxine, and Synclaire represented at least one woman in every Black girl’s squad.
But one of our favorite parts of the show was its long list of actors, athletes, rappers and singers who’d stop by the ladies’ apartment; or show up in Overton and Kyle’s spot upstairs.
The show also had a number of memorable guests, who provided plot twists and unforgettable TV moments. From Heavy D to Eartha Kitt, here are 15 guest stars who appeared on Living Single.
