And when she talks about those who get bent out of shape about her showing off her body, she claps back ... "If you had this booty you’d be naked too!"

Of course, she threw the shade while rockin' a super skimpy bodysuit that fit her curves like a glove ... and showed off her bodacious behind with a barely-there bottom. So, she more than proved her point.

Richard Smallwood, a singer whose work in the gospel genre brought him several Grammy nominations throughout his life, has died.

The performer died at a nursing center in Sandy Spring, Maryland, on Tuesday. His publicist announced the singer died after suffering complications from kidney failure, The Washington Post reports.

Smallwood was born in Atlanta, and he moved to Washington, D.C. when he was just 10 years old. He founded his first gospel group the following year, and he studied under singer Roberta Flack at Browne Junior High.

He later studied music at Howard University, where he obtained a master's degree in musicology and piano. He founded the Richard Smallwood Singers in the late 1970s; they received a Grammy nomination for their work on their 1984 album "Psalms."

Smallwood went on to receive seven more Grammy nominations throughout his life, and his most recent nomination was issued in 2012, when he was up for the Grammy Award for Best Gospel Song.

The performer's songs were covered by numerous artists, including Destiny's Child, Stevie Wonder, and Whitney Houston, who recorded his anthem "I Love the Lord" for the soundtrack of the 1996 film "The Preacher's Wife."

Smallwood never married or had children. He's survived by two brothers and three foster sisters.

He was 77 years old.

The final Friday night of "TMZ After Dark" in 2025 turned into an unforgettable, intimate pop moment when hitmaker Paula DeAnda stepped onto the bus for hosting duties ... and immediately began singing “Walk Away” -- no greeting, no buildup, just raw vocals!

What followed was nearly two hours of stripped-down, close-up performances that felt more like a private concert than a nightlife tour ... and a digital billboard featuring her song and music video even followed the bus through Hollywood, adding to the surreal experience.

Paula took us to three bars, where the whole bus got free shots -- and then some! The first was Power House, an iconic dive bar on Hollywood Blvd that gives us pickleback shots ... followed by Beaches Tropicana, which was like a big WeHo rave ... and then Saddle Ranch Chop House, which -- on top of our free shots -- gave all the "TMZ After Dark" passengers QUESADILLAS!

During her interview, DeAnda opened up about her New Year’s resolutions, shared how much fun she was having, and confirmed she’ll be coming back for a future 'After Dark' and brunch tour. The spontaneous performance, candid moments, and surprise return announcement made the night a standout and a perfect way to kick off the final 'After Dark' weekend of 2025.
