Lovelace Watkins (March 6, 1938 – June 11, 1995)[1] was a Las Vegas-based singer and performer. He was famous in America as well as in Europe and Australia.
In apartheid South Africa, Watkins did better than Sidney Poitier who had to stay on a farm out of town due to lack of accommodation for black people. Watkins was the guest of honor at a woman banquet. He was pictured in The Sunday Express dancing with a white woman, which wasn't good for the hotel where it was taken as it nearly lost it's license.[2]
