Ok.. page 2.. WTF @Mr and Mrs Bootsy Collins!! They look worse than Ashford and Simpson and I didn’t think that was possible!!
Tocarra, PLEASE stop trying to squeezing those 40ZZZ and your big ass into size 10!! You are not fabulous or model material.. just big as hell!!
Lil Mama, Keri Hilson( still waiting for explanation on her hype) and Polo.. Geez!! Get a stylist.. STAT!!
Yo-Yo dressed like she just came from a bake sale or soccer game
MC LYTE LOOKS THE BEST OUT OF ALL THESE CLOWNS!!

Ashanti and Nelly look alike! Tocarra looks tacky (sorry),
JD standing next to Ciara is not good,lol makes his looks shorter than he probably is. I don’t like Ciara’s hair, the color is close to her skin and makes her look bald.
Mike Jones looks corny as hell!

I just wanna know who told Keyshia Cole to wear that color hair! It does absolutely nothing for her! Damn! These people need to learn the proper colors to suit their skin tones. She was stuck on the burnt orange, not the platinum…..um, boo, that ain’t working! Try again!

Beyonce had on and outfit similar to Trina’s at the MTV awards a while back. It was like a glitter inspired outfit sort of like that, i think. Speaking of her, Trina looks a bit like Micheal J. in that photo.

I actually like ciara’s hair like that I just think she needs to go back to the color black it’s just more natural. SHe looks beautiful though.

Im lovin Ciara’s fit, not to sure about the hair. Im sorry but that color is to close to her skin color for her to rock it straight back. Altho Im probably the only one that liked her reddish blonde color when she first came out, I think she needs to improve this version. Maybe add some black low lights or just darken it all together.

I’m not feeling Ciara’s hair like that. She almost looks bald. Maybe it’s just the angle… I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt.

Ciara, looks nice even if she looks like a boy named Butch.
Jermaine Dupri looks like a midget, Cee-Lo, looks like a friget ( fat-midget )
Common, is the only Rapper with Common sense.
Is that Buster Rhymes or Biz Markie.????

Why is Ciara constantly trying to look feminine at big events??? I know she is a woman, but she looks like a damn drag queen and the whole look is off….NEXT!

Go CiCi, she’s cute.
I love seeing Ashanti and Nelly together, I hope they keep it together.
JD is so short
Luda is my baby fo Life. Damn, baby is all that.
Some of my other black folks are lookin good and some I just can’t find the words. Ughhh.

Ne-Yo and Melyssa look like they’re melted together.
Ashanti and Nelly make such a nice, cute, compatible couple to me! (From what I can tell from the outside looking in.)
It’s too bad that Tiny had to get arrested. Any respectable man would keep himself clean so that any loved ones won’t be involved in his mess!
LOVIN’ me some Lil Wayne!
Busta looks like he would break the bed on that azz! lol
I didn’t even recognized Ciara. I had to move my mouse over the pic to see the name.
J.D. look like he’s about 3 foot 3.

ciara looks different with her hair like that, but i like that she’s not rocking a weave for once, probably if her hair was a little darker, it wouldn’t look as off.

MC Lyte looks fab, her hair is cute and she doesn’t look like she aged at all—-no as for Yo-Yo, I barely recognized her. She know she’s wrong for those open-toed witchy poo shoes.
Chingy must be down to his last dime b/c he looks broke down, He needs to ask Luda for an immediate advance. Busta got huge!! He looks like he swallowed 18 bookbags. I’m no Nelly fan, but he looks nice, even with the Mr. T chain.
I see Big Boi and Cee-lo have the same styliist. I just want to do the “twist” on Cee-lo’s checker jacket. I wonder if Mims is shorter than Bobby Valentino? Who is Hurricane Chris and did he miss the memo that beads went out of style in 1991?
I love Kat Williams!! I don’t know why I find that small man sexy, but I know he’’s super hilarious. I’m gonna have to watch him on the Boondocks as “A Pimp Named Slickback”:

Everyone looks really nice. Ashanti played the laid back look which i loves. Tocarra to me, looks fab. Why everybody hatin on her cuz she lost all that weight? her hair could go.. but her outfit, face, and body is a1….. And Keri Hilson looks BEAUTIFUL as always….. she’s MODEL MATERIAL..

I absolutely LOVE Tocarra! She lost that weight and looks really good. Her shoes look like elf shoes though.
I’d never seen J.D’s daughter. She a cute little girl.
Gipp looks little. I thought he was bigger/taller than that.
Polow Da Don is a handsome fella, even with those gigantic glasses on.
Who the HELL styled YoYo for this event? And why did she let them?
I’m done commenting y’all. I didn’t see the 2nd page of pics when I sent my first message.

And I agree with the post about toccara how the hell did she squeeze those thangs in that dress. As a woman with boobs she knows better *smh* I think everyone looks tacky besides Ci-Ci, Trina, and Melissa. Why does Lauren look like she dont want to be there?
Thank You.

I noticed a long time ago that ugly hoes always hate on the pretty girls ( Beyonce,Ciara, ETC) don’t get mad at Ciara because your man would more than likely leave you to be with her. She is doing the d@mn thing. But please continue to hate because she’s just going to continue making that paper. While you ladies sit at home in front of your computer all day.
Who ever dressed Trina needs to be slapped.
Keyshia Cole baby girl don’t you ever come out the house looking like that again.
Ashanti and Nelly both just put on the first thing they could find.
JD is a midget but that ni99a got paper though..
Tocarra, Lil Mama. Yo-Yo, Melyssa Ford all look a hott mess…
Everyone else was decent

Ciara iz doing that grown woman thing now coz she got a new man to impress and not lil boys like bow wow anymore. So you can expect her to get down like that from now on, haters fall back.
Once youre in the company of greatness, aka any of the Forbes 1,2,3 you could give a F*ck about wat the haters say. i know Ciara next song gonna start by:
50 told me, BABY go ahead switch your style up.
and if they hate, let em
and watch the money pile up
Lil Wayne looks scary
Common boring
Lauren saucy
Ashanti and Nelly cute
Kanye wtf?
Busta lol

Sunday, October 14, 2007 /
Oh my…Ciara…NO! Please don’t ever wear your hair like that again. Nice outfit, but the hair is a no-no.
Ne-yo always trying to sneak a feel. He know he don’t have to have his hand that low. He did the same with Rhianna at the Grammys.
LMAO! JD is short as hell. He looks like a midget next to Ciara. His daughter is almost as tall as he is…she’ll be taller than him by 12.
Why are Nelly and Ashanti dressed like it’s ‘85? This isn’t a throwback party.
I like Keyshia’s hair…but what’s up with the top. Either wear one or the other.
