everyone looks fab!!!
Wish I was there.
Nelly & Maxwell!..MMMmm mmmm mmmm
Everyone looks nice…. but Ashanti looks gorgeous, she doin it.
Nelly and Ashanti looking good
Ms. London sexy as always
everyone does look happy with the exception of nelly and ashanti. It seems like there frontin for the camera. It look like some thing is on ashanti mind hopefully it will get better
Janelle and Fonz look like they would make the perfect team. Everyone that didn’t like Bey’s hair, here it is on Eva. I love it. It reminds me of back in the day. Eva and Lauren are two beautiful women. They seem almost perfect. If I didn’t know Eva was a BI, and Lauren an airhead, I would think so. Nelly and Ashanti look nice. this is the first I’ve ever seen them out together. Holly can do better than this old looking man… Just kiddin, I know if it were the other way around, this would be the reaction.
Souljah Boy finally got rid of those damn sunglasses and rubber band chain
everyone looks good
David wasn’t kidding when he said he was shocked the ladies thought he was cute after the hit song “Run/Play”…it’s definitely gone to his head because he’s all male model now instead of country hood. And it’s funny because it shows that all that “acting out,” the tough guy exterior is as much a result of low self-esteem as is some girl’s prmiscuity. Poor thing. Everybody looks nice…Eva looks fierce…Purple is great on Ashanti…Jill looks great…both Jills…and Nelly.
Everybody looks great! Can’t wait for tonight
Everyone looks great!
Love seeing Ashanti & Nelly together.
I was just thinking about Tyrese the other day wondering when he’s going to bless us with his voice again. You too Maxwell. The music scene misses & needs you both back terribly. Stop by and pick up Avant, Carl Thomas, Jon B., Joe and Jaheim too.
All these black folk look good. Cosign #7 with the Janelle and Fonz combo.
Soulja looks scared! lol
We LUV Janelle…Can’t wait till she hits the Stores in JULY!!!!!!!
Eva looks spectacular. Damn that getup is earthy/classy/regal..WORK BITCH!!!!!!!!!
Look! It’s Debra Leevil! lol
Ashanti and Nelly look GREAT…and HAPPY. I don’t know how anyone gets an uncomfortable, or unhappy vibe from them by just looking at one of many photos from that night.
Eva is soooo freakin pretty.
Jill Marie is, and will always be Toni Childs to me. She played that role so damn well. Love her! lol
eva…love that dress! she lookin good!
nelly and ashanti cute couple
soulja boy…blah blah.. just a kid!
Everyone does look nice. Just one tiny little thing though. I would have liked for Ashanti to have had another hairstyle, I’ve seen it on ciara and beyonce, but I will admit she looks pretty and natural this time. I wish I was there.
awww. janelle look so cute.
Ashanti and Nelly are the PERFECT couple! I thought they had broke up?’
I see Lauren joined the band-wagon and cut her hair – me likey!
Why does Janelle Monae always look so artificial and comical?
I agree that music needs the real voices of R&B back NOT T-Pain and rappers singling (or whatever they call it) through hooks. Tank, Ginuwine, and a sober D’Angelo, this means you too! Ashanti looks great and so does everyone else. Its nice to see that BET has forgiven Nellz and all otf the other Rap dudes for the credit card scandal a few yrs back. Ill be watching!
Continued..ok maybe Lauren didn’t cut her hair. Just peeped a previous post where it’s long. She would look cute w/ a short cut anyway.
nelly and ashanti look so cute together.
work it girl
I must say everyone looks they enjoyed themselves. Lately ashanti been looking yes im going to say it FIERCE! Thank you Jesus, Soulja boy is steppin it up. He left those shades home yes! and he looks very nice and well put together.(Maybe next time he’ll leave the chains at home aswell tho) Nelly, Eva,Tyrese look good. Lauren..idk i cant put my finger to it BUT SOMETHING IS DEF OFF. everyone else looks good but not work mentioning. Oh and maxell I see you lol, looking good,
Soulja Boy reminds me of a young Flava Flav with that big ass necklace and watch. I understand he’s a kid, but that’s not hot. Besides, it looks fake!
MAXWELL PLAYING WIT THE MY DAMN MUSIC…WHERE’S THE MUSIC MAXWELL!!
AND NELLY REALLY NEEDS TO DO A SPREAD IN PLAYGIRL!!! SEXY BEAST!
go David B! my dude is doing it. He looks nice in those colors. Go Nelly & Shani.. HOT!!!.. Maxwelllllll.. I miss you. Everybody is doing it big.. with the exception of So-Lame Boy.. He just thought he was looking cute. yikes. i dare not like Bizzy Bone said.
but not worth mentioning*
And I dunno how I missed this…..But Soulja Boy just pissed me off. Everyone looks nice, and here he is looking simply foolish. Soulja Boy Tell Me why the f**k you insist on looking a damn mess.
why does jill scott wear dresses with all those patterns and stuff on it, they make her look bigger than she really is.
eva looks fierce, lauren london is cute but i dont like her hair
damn david banner! i didnt even recognize him….lookin very grown and sharp
nelly and ashanti look nice but of course she gotta mess it up with that damn weave!
janelle is a cutie
maxwell boo where u been????
ughh @ souljah boy……why u gotta wear all that loud ass jewelry wid a suit, i swear some people have no class. smh
um…….holly robison….NO. I just saw that flowery dress….NO…Just NO
I didn’t even notice that was David Banner he is all skinny. I LOVE HIM. HE WAS SO SEXY. I have not seen him in a minute. I still have a pic of him in my wallet from 2004 with his shirt off. That was his trade mark, bustin out of his clothes like the Hulk. I thought I was gonna hook up with him some day. I do not like this look on him at all. I am all for getting your gown and sexy on. But his is just fake. @ Rake, that’s what made me fall for him. After watching MTV Cribs, I noticed his insecurities, which made him come off humble. I hope he does not get cocky. Let me stroll up again.
omg people I dislike souljaboy as much as the next person but cmon if he took those jewelry off He would look nice and regardless this is A UPGRADE FOR HIM.
Man, ya on yall game today with the post. Also, I saw that Concreteloop was nominated for a blog award. I am surprised that, no one made a post about that. Anyways, the readers can still go the Bet site and vote. Good luck, Concreteloop.
I Can Never Ever …Ever Ever E V E R Get Enough Of Nelly.
Loving Ashanti and Nelly.
Lauren looks so pretty !!!
aww look at my lil youngin slouja boy…i see his gradually coming in to his own!
MAXWELL PLEASE JUST PLEASE
ASHANTI AND NELLY IS THE CUTEST HIP HOP AND R&B COUPLE…NO ONE CAN TOP THEM
LADIES PLEASE stop ripping your edges out with this hair weaving Jill’s face is on point but that weaving has taken its toll on her hairline
Alright, now!! Ashanti and Nelly together in a pic!!! She looks great! David Banner is sexy, but just not in that pic. Jill looks good and Tyrese is forever sexy.
Looks like Eva will never shed the name “Pigford”.
Didn’t she ask y’all to stop calling her that?
Ashanti and Nelly look great, I love her dress, but her hair (not so much)
Eva is so cute
Soulja boy…Bet 10 bucks he win viewers choice…Dont even front like u wan’t crankin that soulja boy
Maxwell…Where u been man? My momma used to love you, LOL
I love me some Nelly! My hometown homie is looking sexy as hell!!!!
Ashanti looks great too but I’m not feeling her nail polish. Rihanna and Kelis can pull it off but it doesn’t go well w/ her dress.
I’m such a Lauren London fan but I want her next project w/ Megan Good to hurry up and come out!
i thought david banner was miss jay at first
is it me or does that look on ashanti’s face with nelly tell the whole story. she’s looking like negro why are you touching me. lol!
tyrese looks umm umm gwood!
Ashanti looks great I can’t wait to watch the awards.
Eva once again is shitting on hoes. Let’s get a fashion post dedicated to her as well. Rihanna isn’t the only one fashion worthy.
SOULJA BOY ALL DRESSED UP…. I’M SHOCKED.
SOULJA LOOKS LIKE LIL MAMA BUT JUST DARKER. THEY BOTH HAVE THAT BUTT CHIN.
Ashanti and Eva look gorgeous! If only Soulja Boy would’ve left the chain at home, but thumbs up to him anyway!
Eva’s dress is being held up by back pack straps. Not nearly as worthy of RhiRhi’s style so she don’t get a post just yet.
Ashanti looks fiyah and to me SHE is shittin on hoes! Love her and Nelly.
Lauren London is beautiful.
Maxwell looks 80 and Toni Childs is that girl!
DAVID BANNER is really hollywood since he cut his Goatie
I`ll give all of you a grand each if soulja boy will ever get to number 1 again
i don`t really talk about these niggaz height cos am not am a 5ft8 giant but how tall is nelly? i mean Jill scott is like a 5ft3/4
Nelly is 5’11
^^^^i’VE MET dEBRA LEE AND SHE IS LIKE MEDIUM HEIGHT FOR A WOMAN, MAYBE 5’5″, AND SHE PROLLY HAS ON 3 ” HEELS HERE, SO NELLY IS LIKE 5’9. lEMME LOOK AT IMDB
Huh! According to Imdb.com, Nelly is 6′!! DAMN NELLY! Wit your fine azz, tall too?
