MOMMA KNOWLES MAKEOVERS + AN EMAIL FROM CONTESTANT 2…
Monday, April 30, 2007
Well four ladies on “The Tyra Show” didn’t turn her down. Momma Bouncey was featured on Tyra’s show on Friday to make these women look like Tina’s famous daughter and drape them in House Of Dereon gear.
Alot of people give Tina a hard time when it comes to styling, but after watching the show you can draw one of these conclusions - (A) It isn’t Tina who actually made Beyonce and Destiny’s Child look tacky all the time - it was her team. (B) Tina and her team deserve alot more credit, besides they did make these women look really good. (C) It doesn’t matter, the whole Knowles clan is tacky.
Now since I ain’t no hater, I’ll chose B because Beyonce’s hairstylist Kimberly Kimble is the bomb. Plus, lets be honest - Tina has stepped up her game from those cut outs she use to make for Destiny’s Child…don’t front like ya’ll don’t like some of these Dereon pieces out nowadays…
Here’s a clip of the show. You can see the rest of the segments from the episode here


The first and best makeover was Mia - a smart H.S Senior athlete.


The second makeover was Jacelynn - who had just lost 70lbs before.
**EDIT**: Jacelynn sent me an email earlier this week in response to some of your comments:
It is sad to me that people are so negative. I have come along way
since my weight loss and the Tyra show makeover. I have been reading
the comments all day, and I have posted a few responses. I am truly
speechless. I can not even begin to let people know how the show
positively impacted my life. My self-esteem was really low after my
weight loss and to be acknowledged the way I was is significant.
Sometimes in life you never know what may come your way. I was
extremely hesitant about doing the show, but then I figured what the
heck I have a story to tell and I am proud. Many of you do not know
anything about me, but a little over two years ago, I was working
somewhere else and walked up three flights of stairs and was exhausted.
I started to cry right then because I was obese. So I decided that
since I tried everything else as far as programs and nothing seemed to
work, that I would try gastric bypass. I went for a consultation at
Cedar Sinai medical center that was recommended by my physician as a
last resort. Something else may work. I called my friend, who had been
on a medical weight loss program, to ask her for more info. Well I
called and they told me to come in and the rest is history. The very
first day I weighed in, I weighed approximately 270. Today, I am a tad
bit (I say that sparingly) under 200. I went from a size 22 to a 14. I
have the ability to inspire anyone about any obstacles they have in
life. This makeover has definitely boosted my self esteem and makes me
feel better about myself and who I am. I appreciate every one’s
opinions!Jacelyn

They look nice, especially Jacelynn. The dress looks nice on her. The clothes are ok, but those prices are ridiculous. And I still think Tina needs to have her Butterick, McCalls card revoked and sewing maching reposessed.

The makeovers looks but I would consider them average, its like its doesn’t take much to turn a busted looking person into something not so busted… Tina Knowles is still a HAM!

she lost 70lbs? And isn’t that belt around the waist supposed to make you look slimmer? I mean I’m a guy so I don’t know but it looks like she got stuck in somebody’s gold hoola hoop.
But her outfit is nice and the other girl looks great too.

I support anybody that’s on their grind, kudos to Mrs. knowles for doing what she does best, making that money, and it’s great that she helped to boost these women self-esteem!
Yall sleeping on Mrs. Knowles, that women be working it, I hope she comes out with a book describing her business tactics, she looks as if she can take on the best of the best-
It’s a doggy dog world out here and sometimes you gotta know how to fight dirty-I aint mad atcha Mrs. Knowles-

Ok thats it! i’m so damn sick of people aspiring to look the same! Notice how all these girls who got made over all resemble a specific prototype… Whatever happened to individuality?
And that Tyra ought to be ashamed of herself calling herself a Black girl with that european silky, grey barbie doll hair. What a mess.

ok somebody explain to me why the first girl hates her knees. she’s got some pretty ass legs (and a really nice body in general) that most girls i see don’t have. i think her body’s cute and i’m a very critical person! she did that makeover though for her face. now do ppl see how far makeup and a weave can get you. this is why it’s hard for me to find hollywood women to be naturally beautiful. they all have access to the ish that normal women don’t have access to so of course many of them are attractive. when they take the weaves off (i mean expensive weaves , not the ghetto ish that is obviously not real) and get real then i’ll take them seriously

oh, and I do like the makeovers but tyra is phony, I used to like her but not anymore. And why mama knowles wanna try and say the price of the clothes dont matter, and her kids used to wear cheap clothes and she redesigned them, If thats the case why she charging so damn much for the line. You can design good clothes and make them cheaper. Hello, she sound stupid. She should have left that part out.

Tyra finally has an actual big girl on her show, i just noticed that. Thats why I’m not feelin her or her show like I used too. She call herself having big women on her show that hate their weight but if you really look at it they not really big, it be those girls who have wide bodys but they dont have actual rolls or nothin like that where it shakes. Tyra be frontin, her whole technique is gettin old. and by the way, did anyone notice that back when she did the women in the audience with swim suits proud of their weight, there were no actual big girls or was that just me. And yes, I weigh 150 and I am 5ft 4 inches, before anyone starts talkin mess

Hi, everyone
This is Jacelyn(they spelled my name wrong) from the Tyra show! I did not think that many people watched the show, but obviously I was wrong. Well everyone, I just wanted to thank you for all of your comments. No one can even inagine, how overwhelmed we all were to be given a makeover. I want to let you all know that Tina Knowles is a very nice, cool, and down to earth person. She was with us the entire three days our makeovers were done and she talked to us about all kinds of things. I am definitely appreciative that I was chosen. People are going to say what they want, just know that we all are entitled to our opinions!

I must say that the athlete looks BEYOND beautiful. But I cant help but comment on her getting a weave. Her hair already looked damaged so why would they add another damaging weeve to make things worse? I like how the weave looks on her, but I wish they would have given her a cute style with her own hair. Its a shame that our women are always runing to weaves and wigs, I mean not one of those women were rockin there real hair. She could have been really pretty with a cut like rihanna, But I think she would look great with napptural hair. Oh and the skirt looked kinda tacky.

Tyra loves her some Knowles, don’t she?
I wonder what goes through Tyra’s head when she looks in the mirror before going on stage. She looks hideous in that wig and her makeup has been ghastly lately, especially her ashy-ass eyebrows. Is she going through some sort of meltdown? Everything is so drag-queenish and over the top. So ugly. And it’s a shame because when you strip it all away she’s still pretty.
Tina did okay with these makeovers. The girls looked better but I’m tired of this look on everybody now.
One thing about Tina that I do believe is that she is a hell of a mother. She has done a wonderful job in that department.
