It was nice to finally meet you!
)
The pleasure was all mine dear!
Whew dabrat what a blast from the past still rockin baby hair and "soldier rag" lol.Why is everyone dressed up but her there are nice mens fashions available if that’s how she wants to dress not tryn to be funny jus sayin
My thoughts exactly. She doesnt have to look like she just left the block all the damn time. If she wants to wear mens clothes, there are plenty that would be suited for this occassion.
And she looks so damn cute dressed up..smh@Brat.
I know Derek J can do hair but does he not have friends? Real friends dont let friends make boobs out of fat. Despite that, still a big improvement over what he usually wears. I like your outfit Michelle. Why doesnt Shanell get any shine on YMCB? She can actually sing, I really liked her mixtape.
@loving this site – Thank you! (((hugs)))
Lord, DaBrat is a hot azz mess! That look from the past is whack. She needs an intervention and a makeover. Any volunteers to help this chick?
She actually did have a makeover done on some show on VH1! She looked really good! I guess she decided to not keep it…..
Looks like Da Brat rocked the "Mammy" look by Dolce & Gabbana. Somebody give her those Aunt Jemima earrings that model had on.
i see pebbles been eating well she still fine tho, jd look gay as hell lol
Hahaha, I was thinking she was eating well too. Me and my friend used to be obsessed with Pebbles back in the day. You could not tell us NOTHEENG about our precious Pebbles. We wanted to be just like her. "Girlfriend, how could you let him treat cha so bad!"
Maybe Im too young but who is Peebles. I heard of her when they did a TLC documentary. She signed them. Was she a well known talent scout? When I googled Peebles, Flinstone and the crew came up.
You spell her name like this: Pebbles.
She had a few good hits back in the late 80′s/early 90′s. "Girlfriend", "Mercedes Boy", and a duet with Babyface called, "Love Makes Things Happen" were the most popular. Then she faded away and came back with TLC. I aways forget that she signed them.
WTF Pebbles got on?
Someone please call DABrat and let her know it’s 2012! I think she lost her calendar in jail.
Why are you all dogging Da Brat? At least she hasn’t aged and changed. Pebbles up there looking like a decrepit old white lady. I almost didn’t want to believe that was her. She look likie a broke azz Suzanne Sommers or Chelsea Handler’s half-black sister. Nobody wants to ride in her Mercedes!
This is an award/banquet celebration right? Why are people dressed like they’re about to go the mall, a BBQ, or the club? Do we not know how to dress for certain occassions anymore? #IJS
I guess LisaRaye denied her sister access to her all white Wonder Bread wardrobe. It’s a shame that JD didn’t even let her borrow one of his best Easter suits. JD’s daughter probably answers the door like "Dad!!! Uncle Brat is here!"
HONEY!!! I died over and over and over again from reading this. And I’m still laughing…that’s for making my night!!!
Tip and all these Freemason ass handshakes…sigh. I cant
Ok Brat we get it ur not here for the menz. Now that it has been firmly established, please groom yourself properly or stay at home. It seems like she’s afraid to even have men be attracted to her. U can Atleast give em something to look at they know ur not gonna let them smash…
The caption under Brat’s pic!!! Lmaooooooo!!! #dead Thanks for that laugh Michelle!!!
