Rihanna, definitely. Vanessa looks like a potato.
Vanessa favors lil Kim in the face on this picture…hmmmz
Oh yeah I voted for rihanna
Whooo Hooooo I am second, I have never been second….Okay let me compose myself…..Rihanna rocked it better
oh damn i guess fourth….
i guess fourth….
SHYT NEITHA. RHIANNA IS TO SKINNY AND VANESSA IS TO WIDE, BUT I DO LIKE VANESSA’S SHOES BETTER, RHINANNA’S LOOK LIKE CHURCH SHOES.
UHHHHHHHH CAN U GIVE ME THAT DRESS?, I CAN ROCK IT BETTA…….LOL
This is just a bad pose of Vanessa. I remember other pics when she had it on and she killed it. So based on what I remember… Vanessa.
I never thought Vanessa was bad looking, but on this pic she looks like– ya’ll remember that episode of Martin when he went to his reunion, and Gina busted up in there after all her allergic reactions and whatnot lookin a mess? Yep, in this pic, she looks like any minute we gon hear her hollerin “Martin! Martin!”
z…u are 4,5,and 6 boo!!! hahahaha that was cute though! I think riri is wearing the dress better. But the dress is just ugly!!! I think it’s the straps. What ya’ll think. I’m 7th Z!
Hell to the no, Rihanna all the way. However I think Vanessa’s shoes are better.
hey I’m 10th whaaaaaaa happened!
rihanna b/coz that dress suits her body better than vanessa
Rihanna,.. But i dont like the dress anyway
Who’s Vanessa? Is she wearing yellow tights, because her legs are the same colour as mustard or something. Anyways, I think the dress is ugly so neither.
Vannessa rock’d the dress better, from her accessories to her shoes. & Why don’t Rihanna’s nails match her toes? or the dress for that matter?
getmebodied, Riri shoes are “churchshoes” I am an usher at church and I would wear those!! hahahahah Would u really wear that dress? I don’t like the straps. and the jewelry they are trying to rock with it is just wrong. A dress like that needs no necklace and wear the hair “up” with nice earrings…Just my opinion.
It’s a ugly ass dress, Rihanna looks a bit better in it so i’ll give it to her, but where is she going with that little ass suitcase
That Vanessa girl looks uncomfortable. So it’s obvious it’s Rihanna.
Loooove this dress!!! Ri-Ri rocked it much better than Vanessa.
@NIKKILUVBOO…. HELL YEAH I WOULD ROCK DAT DRESS! AND DEADDDDDDDDDDD@#9MEKO, THAT IS MY FAV EPISODE ON MARTIN, IT JUST CAME ON LIKE 5 DAYS AGO! HEHEHEHEHEHE
Well I think they are both goregous. But I am here to judge the dress but I think V has it! She does look wide like someone meantioned but she did just have a baby so I will say kutuz to her!
Rhinna rockd it betta to me. Babygirl even got the pose and looks comfortable. Vanessa, Kobe wife, look like she gotta piss and trying desperately to hold it in bt she still a beautiful woman nonetheless.
I dont care for it on either but Vanessa looks much better cuz rihanna got some big ass ugly boat shoes on GO ERICA
P.S. This should have had a caption for Vanessa saying..”Do I look fat in this dress?” lmao
vanessa looks orange and rhi rhi looks better in the dress she’s younger and vanessa is a mama she needs to dress like one
i hate the dress on both but ms.rihanna
Rhianna rocked it better. Vanessa looks like a big wide ass square in the dress.
That’s not a good comparison picture. Rihanna is posing and trying to look cute for the cameras and Vanessa obviously didn’t know she was being photographed. Besides, I have to give Vanessa credit for still having that body and being able even wear that dress after a couple of kids.
Vanessa looks very frumpy in the dress. Rihanna rocked it better end of story!
Vanessa looks dopey in that pic so i’m going to go with Rhianna.
Ri-Ri…hands down.
Rihanna rocked it, but Vanessa got men waiting on her…hand and foot! And, that car looks “regal”!
Neither. That dress is ugly.
Mrs. Bryant better ease off Kobe’s lifetime free McDonalds before he trade her in for a 2008 model fully equiped minus the baby pouch package
Rhianna (as much as it pains me to say because I really do not care for the girl)…. but no question. Vanessa looked busted!
All I can say is, Rihanna is definitely BONKABLE material.
I clearly have no ideal what you people are looking at. Vanessa rocked it betta, those shoes Rihanna is wearing is totally ugly. I don’t even like how Rihanna posed in that picture, she looks like some hood chick. Plus a girl need some meat on her and Rihanna don’t appear to have that at all. I don’t want to be feeling a skeleton when I’m hugging my girl on doing other things ya know?
It is what it is and ain’t what its not,
VIPATLSTYLE
Most def Rih! She should lose that long necklace though.
I’d have to say Rhi Rhi. I dont know what is up with the orange/yellow tights but me no likey. I also hate the shoes Rhi has on but it seems to compliment her body better.
I say Vanessa. I do not like Rihanna plastic looking shoes. The only thing that makes the dress look better on Rihanna is her pose.
kaykay…Girl mama’s can look cute too! Ok wait and you will see! hahahahaha Shoot don’t u want ur mom to be cute. Imagine this…When u were in like 5th grade and mom had to come to school for whatever reason. How would u feel if she were not lookin good? My son is so proud when I come to his class. His friends are like “Chico is that ur mom?” He is like yep that’s my mommy! He is so cute with his snaggly tooth grin! Just wait girl when u go to ur child’s school someday, u r going to be like oh I still look cute! hahahahaha (and you’ll think about me)
#26 KayKay, What exactly does a mama dress like??? Do explain…
I think Vanessa got this one. This is obviously not a good pose for her so I don’t think it is evenly matched. Rihanna’s shoes are ugly.
VIPATLSTYLE, Riri does have meat on her, what are you talking about. Why is it that is a girl isn’t “thick” she doesn’t have meat on her. Rihanna has very nice legs. Women come in all shapes and sized. One is not better than the other it is simply “your” taste. You better recognize.

WTH???
I must need a new monitor, because my screen shows Rihanna well proportioned and not the least bit skinny!! I guess if you are a Spanish stans or hater, you have to make up something negative to strike at Ri! Go after the forehead, because the body is…as Bouga says, “definitely BONKABLE”!

NEITHER OF THEM ROCKED IT AND RIHANNA SHOES ARE A GOOD FUCKIN MESS BUT IM BIAS SO I VOTED FOR HER ANYWAY
Nikki LuvBug$ I see we are on the same page. lol
43. What You Talkin ’bout ~ Knock on wood, we made the same comment at 10:07 AM! lol!
That dress is ugly, but Rihanna fills it out better than Vanessa.
I like the dress. I wouldn’t say that either one of them rocked it better. But I do like the dress.
I wouldn’t wear either pair of shoes w/the dress.
LOL @#15 and the mustard comment:
I would say she looks more of a newborn baby SHIT yellow color. Just my opinion.
i dont like the dress… and i dont like rihanna… so i just voted for vanessa LoL
Rihanna has really been bringing it lately, does anyone know who her stylist is????
Rihanna….it fits her better. I don’t care to much for Vanessa.
#16–I’m with you. Why is Rhianna wearing two different polish colors on her fingernails and toenails? Not cute.
The dress is ugly but I guess Rhianna looked better in it. Vanessa always has that weird look on her face like she’s trying too hard to look that way.
Vanessa’s shoes are better but Rihanna rocked the dress better.
I’d Jerk it to both, soo IMO they both are WINNERS!
I think it depends on the angle of the picture. In the picture in the link below Vanessa definitely rocked it better. In the picture Concreteloop used, Rih-Rih rocked it better.
Take a look.

LMAO # 1- Vanessa does look like a potato. Haha.
Rihanna rock’d the dress way better!!!
I THINK RIHANNA ROCKED IT BETTER BUT THOSE SHOES R HORRIBLE LOL VANESSA LOOKS LIKE SHE GOT JANDIS(HEP C) BUT SHE’S USUALLY A PRETTY CHIK (KOBE’S WIFE FOR Y’ALL WHO DIDNT KNOW)
Rihanna rocked it better, she has that whole 60′s go-go theme going with her haircut tied in to it.
Ri Ri rocked it better IMO and she aint skinny.
The dress IS ugly though it gets 2 thumbs down Boooo
Hey Bash, Blk and Foxxy!
