Jill looks Sickening!!!!…that was my only focus..lol
But me too, tho-Jill better WERK that red!She is just so beautiful.
Tamia, Marlo, Tamia,Kelis, and Jennifer looked great. Michelle, you come off bitter at times with your captions underneath people’s pictures..hater much honey??? Because we all know your looks nor style couldn’t touch any of the aforementioned women on your best or their worst day. You’re suffering from "Keyshia Cole itis"…hating on other black women doing their thing, instead of congratulating.
Jamaal you come of bitter in your comment. Hater much honey?
How is my comment bitter? It was a direct response to Michelle negative comments towards the other beautiful black women who have done absolutely nothing to her. Stop being a dyck rider for Michelle, her comments about the other ladies were in bad taste, period, point, blank.
The ladies look amazing!! So does Tank and I believe that is Tamia not Tina Knowles….
yep, it’s Tamia..now that i’m looking at other people..Love me some Jill!
I was going to say Damn Ms.Knowles got a good plastic surgeon
too damn good! lol
isnt that Tamia and not Tina Knowles? 0_o
oops….
LOL!
Michelle as I stated before as bad as some of the other housewives look you never point out their looks. It amazes me how you always are negative with NeNe and when and if you blog about Marlo it’s always something wrong! Even though Sheree is no longer a housewife, I’m sure you’re searching right now for something about her. I do like your site, however I do not always like you to give a negative opinion. There is nothing wrong with saying it like you mean it but it seems like you are biased when it comes to certain celebrities. And no I’m not on any team but my own.
@LakishaD thanks for pointing that out. I had absolutely NO CLUE I was biased!!
Since you are clearly a loyal reader here are a few answers to you concerns…
1. I never blawg about Marlo because what is there to blawg about? She’s not a "housewife"… never has been and never will be. The only reason I did today was because she was there with Nene. (Kinda like how I would if Diana Gowins (remember her?) hadda been there).
2. I blawg about Sheree because I receive a ton of emails either asking about her or spilling tea. To me that means SOMEBODY (maybe not you) cares enough and wants to know about her.
That being said… thanks again for your observation. Please come again soon! (((Hugs)))
It’s your site Michelle and we read it because we love it. Bump all those negative keyboard gangsters!
Yeah LakieshaD! Where’s all that smart talk now?
@Lakisha i agree!
Jill Scott looks like she has 2 basketball’s on her chest, it looks PAINFUL! Tamia is definitely lookin like MaMa Tina, what happened? Jennifer Williams looks like she’s been dippin in the skin bleach & Kelis looks almost as crazy as she really is! Love Estelle but the outfit is atrocious, and wateva Marlo was going for (JAILHOUSE HAUTE COUTURE?) she missed the mark!
the captions! lol!
They look sexy to me !
Anyone know the number to the Fashion Popo?
As much as I hate weave, I must say that I prefer it on Solange. Natural hair doesn’t work for her, nor does red lipstick. That picture of Tamia DOES look like Tina! NeNe does need a girdle, but her face looks pretty. Marlo usually brings it, but not that night! Never heard of Lianne Lahaves, but if she was being honored for something, she should have had the better judgement to not wearing an outfit that shows her midriff…..tacky! Jill is beautiful but needs a breast reduction, because no matter how small she gets those titties will always make her look overweight. Kelli’s and Jennifer look good, Estelle, not so much.
So glad sumone else sees what I see when it comes to Solange. Everyone is always praising her natural look, but I just don’t see it for her. She would look great to me with a cute short cut, no red lipstick needed.
Gotta give it up for lady Jill in that red!!! Work it Ms Thang! She just proves you don’t have to wear a size 2 to look good in red!
I freakin love Kelis and Jill…
Solange darlin, your new CD is great and I like the direction you’ve been taking your music career in. I really like the previous Album with that song Toni on it.
You ladies look fantastic…
Dana T.
ITS SO IMMATURE TO SAY NENE NEEDS A GIRDLE… BLACK FOLKS ARE QUIK TO CRITICIZE ONE ANOTHER. SO WHAT IF SHE DID,WHEN SHE DON’T,SHE LOOKS GOOD WITHOUT IT. FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO SPEAK ON…. PITIFUL
Nene needed a girdle. That’s not a criticism, its a fact!
Everybody looks good, but Estelle looks like my old auntie in that ugly suit with her greased up feet.
Damn used old moniker….
@michelle, can u explain to me how someone who had to lose 70 pounds and still has at least 40 more to go before their not considered clinically obese say anything about someone needing a girdle. I saw pics of u and Walt at the Atlanta falcons game and u had on spandex clearly you and spandex are enemies. I usually am not mean and I don’t comment on looks but u started it and have no room to talk.
Michelle started it? started what? This is her site and that was HER opinion. Unless you are nene herself why would you start result to insults? I follow Michelle’s instagram and from what I can tell she’s no where close to obese. As a matter of fac, that girl is smaller than NENE!
Nene needed a girdle. Dag! What’s the big deal? We all need one every once in while. Get over it! Michelle only wrote the truth. Who you should be mad at is Nene’s stylist.
She has her opinion like I have mine. Only a fat person would consider her small so there u go. She goes hard on nene like she looks amazing. She looks like precious. Thanks.
I have an opinion too and it is that you sound like a miserable fat person yourself. What does Michelle’s weight have to do with anything she wrote? I also agree that Nene needed a girdle in that dress. Does that make me a "fat hater too?
LOL I thought Tamia was Tina Knowles at first too
