I'm sure we can substitute him being Lando as a picture, if someone had a good enough sense of humor to do so. Oh, Lando. My heart is ablaze. --CastorTroy 20:27, 28 March 2007 (PDT)
Rename to Mr. Williams
We now know that Mr. Williams was his real name, so shouldn't we change the name of the article to match his real name and not the name of the character he played in the television show? –Nahald 21:07, 28 March 2007 (PDT)
- Being that he plays both, its kind of hard to say. Maybe title it Mr. Lashade/Billy Dee Williams but thats too confusing. I believe that this title will work. Hooper talk contribs email 21:11, 28 March 2007 (PDT)
- I'd say we can't really be sure he is necessarily "Billy Dee Williams" in the show, for all we know the name of his character was Jacob Williams or Leslie Williams. --Sauron18 23:21, 28 March 2007 (PDT)

Correct me if wrong, but didn't Nikki address him as "Billy Dee" at one point? My mind must be screwing with me. --Aero*Zeppelin 23:37, 28 March 2007 (PDT)
- Maybe, I don't really know, I was just pointing it out from what was mentioned here.--Sauron18 05:37, 29 March 2007 (PDT)
- Yes. Billy Dee Williams is playing himself. It's already mentioned on the actor's page. As long as someone adds him as a flashback character it should be fine. --Jackdavinci 05:57, 29 March 2007 (PDT)
- I'm going to try to find a brighter picture. This one is a bit dark. Hooper talk contribs email 09:10, 29 March 2007 (PDT)
This should be "Billy Dee Williams" not Mr. Lashade. Nikki did say "Thank you, Billy Dee."—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tabone1 (talk • contribs) .
- This page will not be renamed. First of all we already have a Billy Dee Williams article, so it would be a merge and not a delete. Secondly this is not the page describing the character in "Exposé"(Lost episode), it is the article to describe the character in Exposé (TV series), Mr. LaShade. Mr. LaShade is indeed played by Billy Dee Williams on the show, Exposé and in Lost, so there is no need to rename, this article describes exactly what it is supposed to do. -Mr.Leaf 15:17, 30 March 2007 (PDT)
