    Russels Simmons daughters look nice, but they take pictures with their head tilted all the time!! Glad they took that sorry reality show off the air though, it sounded so Scripted and it was BORING. His wife sounds like she has an I.Q. of an Ice Cube!

  20. hood_shit

    Russell always known as THE GAY UNCLE!

    Anywho, why are grown ass men still wearing sneakers with suits? That shit ain’t cute.

  21. Chanel

    New Season of Run”s House comes on April 10th I believe. And they actually show the family in the hospital room breaking the news to the kids about the death of the baby. And The Simmons family is always a good look.

  22. urbanpreppy

    WHY IS PATRICK EWINGS WIFE ALL UP ON ALONZO THAN PATRICK AND LOOK AT PAT TRING TO LEAN IN ON HER LOL ALONZO WILL BE FOREVER SEXY…DAMN

  25. Carrington in Houston

    Someone once mentioned on here that EVERY picture Vanessa Simmons takes she looks EXACTLY the same, turning to her right side and slightly tilting her head – and now I’m inclined to agree – she must think that’s her good side or sum…

    Having the EXACT same expression on your face for EVERY picture is not a good look for an aspiring model.

  26. RAIN

    POOR SERENA, SHE NEEDS A GOOD MAKEOVER. EVERY PICTURE I SEE OF HER SHE LOOK TERRIBLE, SHE NEEDS HELP.

  27. btlb

    Will someone please do an intervention with Serena and those bad ass weaves (wigs). She also needs to trim down those eyebrows. Everyone else looks nice.

  28. sexyredd

    serena should just stay home if she don’t have her stuff together cause she looks a mess 95% of the time…i love run’s house! can’t wait to see the new season, i cried at the preview of them in the hospital…russell has a pretty family too.

  29. shardy

    what does SMH mean?

  30. Cookie

    Russell’s kid’s are so cute!

  31. kaykay

    serena=HAM as always
    how cute is ming lee and her cousins

  32. MissTee2U

    Ming and Aoki are such little cuties. But you can tell who took after each parent, can’t you?
    Simmons girls are cute too.
    Serena looks like Tina Turner about to do “Proud Mary” in that dress. But I ain’t mad at her, y’all say she’s a man I say she’s a brick house and I’d take that body any day!!! But I’d upgrade my hair, that’s for sure, sorry Rena…..but you’re doing your thing on the court and that’s good enough for me.

  33. Shaking My Head…DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LOL

  38. kiwi2g4

I mean, that shit is not funny no more, I kno she pays sum 1 extremly good money to dress her…..who ever it is needs to work on there hand eye cordination, cuz they clearly see one thing, but picks up sumthing soooooo wrong. I am sure those clothes are cute on the models instoere, but damn boo just because they make don’t mean it for everybody.

  39. th1

    i got one thing to say about serena: HAM!

  40. MOONLUV

    AOKI ALWAYS LOOK PISSED IN HER PICTURES DONT SHE?

  41. Desirae

    Ming Lee is adorable. And its alwys refreshing to see Luda and his mom together. The “Run’s House” fam looks great. I luv that family, kinda like the Cosby revamped (lol, lemme stop)…they always up to somethin. Did any of u catch the RAP CITY episode when they were arguing in the booth??? They keep it real no matta what!

  42. ChokLitFactory

    The families all look very nice. Nice to see Luda with his mamma and all, but on the real, how come we never see Luda with a FEMALE companion? Just askin…..And Serena, good laqd child, Get. It. Together!

  43. devilicious

    Ming Lee looks like a spoiled little brat a tat.

  44. Kara

    Serena is one ugly Mofo…a shame because it could be helped, she just lacks taste in fashion……

  45. missy

    Serena looks sooooo beautiful! not to mention so damn sexy! great pics

  46. Ammbria

    Ming Lee is ADORABLE. and it looks like she’s sendin a text message! LOL Aoki Lee has always been the cuter 1 2 me, though. She’s lookin like she don’t even want 2 be there.Rev. Run’s kids have never looked like NE thing 2 me.

  49. MsEnchanted0

    Vanessa is wearing a grandma dress and lookslike she’s nervous. Ming and Diggy look o cute in last pic! Aoki looks like her daddy just said she couldnt do something, and seeing all these cameras in her face makes her feelings worse. Serena does look manly, but LOVE the dress! Russel’s clothes are kinda tacky, I love Angela’s dress. alright!!!!!

  50. tonia

    Russell, I came up with this great idea! a clothing line for women over 40. My friends and I know that you are into hip-hop, but you can make the clothes more stlyish for our age group. I am a Educator and I would like a more Friday and weekend look. I will be one of your models, representing the 40′s

    Thanks,

  51. aaliyah
