LaLa what is with her feather skirt that is ugly

Victoria B always look so icy to me

overall everyone looks good

Victoria Beckham is THAT bitch…She is always on.

That is all.

lol

I think La La should have chosen a different look.Pretty girl though!

Gotta love the Beckhams.. i always knew they where down..

LaLa and Carmelo….one question… when is he gonna marry that woman??

Carmelo is SO fine!…Lala looks pretty…but that black ostrich on her hips…not so much.

*waits for the hate to begin on Terell Owens…lonely ass mo-fo’s.*

All in all everyone looks GREAT.

I’m LOVING Nicholas Mithell’s whole outfit (dress & shoes). -smile-

LALA LOOKS A MESS! DIDNT RIHANNA WEAR THAT DRESS! I SMELL A WHO ROCKED IT BETTER ANGEL!

how long should you be with a man that has fame and money, you have his baby but you still got a ring saying yeah yeah we gonna get married?? one day some day! please!!
that beckham needs to get some meat on her body!!!
hollywood is good for going with each others x’s!!
but they all look nice..!! Love Pam shoes (lololol)

Didnt I see that exact outfit (sans the leather leggings) on Rihanna like a month ago?
Just saying…

I dont know why everyone was upset by young berg’s comments on dark skin women. Do you see any of these ballers with a dark skin girl ever???

I don’t know what it is, but I LOVE ME SOME PAUL PIERCE!!!!

Everybody else looks nice

Jerome Jerome Jerome! Love me some him !!!!

I met La La in Los Angeles when she was working as a DJ at either Power 106 or 92.3 the beat like 6-7 years ago. She was hosting this part at a club in Simi Valley (Were they acquitted the cops who beat Rodney King)..AND no one showed up.

Me, my girl and my two friends were the only ones there. LOL She pulled up in a limo, came over to the bar bought everyone drinks, sat and chatted for about 15-20 min.. the song “Try again” by Aliyah was hot at the time so we were talking about that and why no one showed up. She gave every one hugs, apologized.. Had the club owner refund our money and then gave us passes to get into her next event the following Saturday.

La La is a classy chick all day

Samantha u right on point!! could’ve agreed with u more.

folks just all on him cause he acutually put it in words. U won’t see the most chocolate dude in the industries (not one in particular) be with a woman that’s as chocolate as him or close. It will be a latina, white or any non-black, or a light skinned chick. Black men not wanting black women is not anything new.

I like LaLa’s shoes. I believe what she is wearing is not a skirt. The feathers are attach to the jacket. Tianna will correct me either way !

Everyone looks sooo lovely surprising?

@12

Thier loss

Gabrielle Union, Naomi Campbell, Angela Bassett, Keisha Knight Pulliam, Kenya Moore, Chilli, Tweet, Coko from SWV, Iman, Aisha Tyler, Lauryn Hill, Kelly Rowland

The list goes on..

@12 and 16

No one ever said that Yung Berg or these athletes or ANYONE for that matter is wrong for having preferences in dark skinned, light skinned, white, latina, etc. We ALL have preferences, but it’s about the way he said it. Yung Berg is honestly smellin himself a bit TOO MUCH! And true, you rarely see athletes with darkskinned women. WHO CARES?!?!?!?!? Why do we care so much about who other people are dating or seeing or screwing!!!! SO WHAT?!?!?!?!? Does your significant other meet your preferences? If so, shut the hell up and let them live their lives!!!!!

….that is all…..

Lol

i am so tired of seeing tichina arnold everywhere,,,stay home sometimes be with your child…there’s no need tio always be out and about…but despite that everyone looks nice

everyone looks nice, I especially like T. O’s guest dress, great color.

Everyone looks fabulous..well except LaLa..

Boston stand up! I see you Kevin&Paul. (had to represent LOL)

Thank you #10 I was wondering the same thing. Did they ever get married?! See what shacking up will do to dudes. They act like they don’t remember asking you to be someones wife.lamo. N-e- who tischina’s shoes are BAD!!!!! Love em’.

Toccara is looking mighty nice and Keisha Whitaker needs to freaking eat. Damn Forrest stop being so greedy.

If we were to look the word “groupie” up in the dictionary, Tischina Arnold’s (Pam) face will appear. This lady is at every event, especially were athletes are. She is a mother and she needs to be home sometimes. She is always at every event Concreteloop posts.

Any who, everyone looks great!

As for Young Berg, he looks like a broke down squirrel and he should not be talking about anyone. I am a beautiful dark skin sista and I would let him touch me with a ten foot pole!

LALA shoes are BAD !!!

Poster # 12 You took the words right out of my mouth. Is it a coincidence that all of the famous black men with dates, the dates are light skinned or not black at all?

Since Africans were brought to this country, it has been said Black men want white women. It sure does appear that way, particularly with Black men of a certain income bracket or those in the public eye. In MOST cases their women are either light skinned or not black at all.

Whether we want to admit it or not, Black and most people of the world, still believe white or anything associated with it is superior. Light skin, straight hair, light eyes, and European features. I had hoped by the time I became an adult, our people would have matured on such things, but I actually believe we have gotten worse.

@26

Hello beautiful dark skinned sista! *wink wink*. Lol

@ #20..I cosign ur comment.. there are many ballers who have dark skinned wives/girlfriends…but people only want to bring up the fact that they are with light kinned girls or white girls….so what!!…let them live

Everyone one looks pretty good..except LaLa and Paul Pierce..those white shoes are not a good look lol..and that feathered blazer/dress is not cute..

Candace Parker looks very nice and KG’s wife is a shrimp compared to him

I love me some Dr. Jay..if only i was 30 years older lol

Nicole Murphy’s picture should have been the on the top instead of La La. Nicole looks better than all the women half her age in these pics!!

Everyone looks nice.
I agree with 12, these athletes always with someone “light, bright, & damn near white”.

The chick in the pic with Tocarra is that real big butt chick from the move The Best Man bachelor party scene. Her name begins with an L.

Everybody look nice.

#28 - VelvetJ — It’s not that these men decide to be with a light skinned black women. This is what they are attracted to majority of the time. I myself am a black man and am attracted more to light skinned women. Nothing against dark skinned women, as I can be attracted to some as well but the stronger attraction is to light skinned women.

Don’t ask why but that’s just how the majority is. It’s not a trend. It’s just what they are attracted to

@20.

My words exactly on the post yesterday(well kinda). I am a chocolate sister and I didn’t take offense. It’s whatever to me. Everyone does have a preference.

I have had men say to me at least on three occassions..Excuse me miss but you are a sexy dark skin woman, and I dont even date dark women. So I take it as a compliment and kept it moving.

I’ve been hearing negative critism towards dark skin ppl all my life. But guess what I love the skin I’m in,and wouldn’t have it any ohter way regardless. So what it’s celebs preference….what about my preference? That’s what really counts. So no time to worry about O.P.P. ya dig

#28.

Honestly. Who cares. You do you & they’ll do them.

As Jay-Z said “What they eat don’t make me shit…where’s the love?.”
I don’t care WHO anyone else is with or what their race/complexion is. I’m just worried about mine & maintaining the relationship I’m in.

Leave people be. It’s a free country. People can be with who they want to be with. There are so many mixes of races & cultures here in America..it’s beautiful.

keisha make me puke
i love skinny people(not skeletons) but when it comes to girls HA!!! in their face

28
who cares? am a light skin nikka (ice T light) and i don`t like dark skin girls 4 1 reason
i wanna make babies who look like me so i won`t have doubt and My whole family is mixed whith white and black(light skin too)so they are light as heaven
well maybe thats not the best reason but I fuck who i want and you can`t say ish bout that “DARK BUTT”(am sorry but i assume you are 1 even though i`m jokin)

#19

Exactly….. they the ones missing out, but they’ll probably only realise that when they start dating white men..

Michael Strahan & Nicole Murphy make a striking couple. Love KG. Everybody elese is whateva.

@ 35..Exactly..people get caught up in this light-skinned/dark-skinned mess…and it doesnt have to be an issue…just worry about yourself and let everyone else do what they do…your preference is none of my business..i will not lose or gain anything if a dude picks a light-skinned sista over a dark-skinned sista or vice versa

Black women, yall need a step outta the box and start lookin at men of other races too. If certain brothers aint checkin for you why yall care?? What’s not to say a fine, intelligent, caring white or Hispanic dude aint lookin your way—cuz trust me their just as fine as black men Preference is preference and at least these black men go with whoever—I doubt its self hatred (Yung Berg’s uneducated ass being an exception). Sisters, dont tell me u aint never checked out a white man?? As long as u dont justify ur preference to bash your own (that applies to men AND women) it dont matter.

Get outta the mindset that we need to be “loyal” to the race. Too often black women stay lonely and single their whole lives “waiting” for the right black men, and never get him. Happiness is better than staying lonely in life. Its not big deal if a black woman dates out of her race. Tatyana Ali does it all the time and she seems pretty well adjusted.

LaLa looks good. KG and guest?? Who doesn’t know that’s his wife?!?! That’s a sexy man. Nicole has upgraded Mike. He’s been looking nice lately. Jerome Bettis has always been cuddly cute.

LMAO!!!

I’m sorry but I had to comment on someone else’s comment!!! @38, are you serious? You’re reasoning for not wanting a darkskinned woman is because you want your child to look like you????? That’s absolutely RIDICULOUS!!!! That has NOTHING to do with what your baby looks like!! You could get a woman that looks like Alicia Keys and STILL have a darker baby, if your baby’s mother has any black in her then that baby could be ANY shade of black!!! People need to kill that stupid mentality!!!!! Black people come in ALL shades and produce more black people of ALL SHADES!!!!

Mr. Ownens is not out of the closet yet. I am sure most of the “KIDS” know this already. Just check up his freinds, his close friends he left behind here in Atlanta and Birmingham, Alabama. Why are more white women settling or GAY black men? It’s always the ones that have money or appear to have money. Yeah…..he is on the DL though. That’s a promise!!! You can probably interview all the guys at the DL club on Ralph Mcgill Blvd. I am sure that will bust his sh** wide open!

I agree 100% #42.

You know DarkFlava. I completely ignored that post. You’re a good one for responding. LOL. Cause that was PURE ignorance at its finest.

#32, I think that is Liris. If it isn’t, she’s a dead ringer for her.

I’m so upset with KG’s wife. I heart him. LOL. Nicole looks nice, she toned down the drag queen effect.

And those black women who say “I’ll never love anything more than dark chocolate brothers” or something are the ones who’ll NEVER find love. If you’re a chocolate coclored sister, I gotta ask u—how many of those same brothers LOVE YOU??? Despite them turning away from you, and arent interested, then whats your opinon of them??

As a hpothetical example, say there is a darkskinned woman, and there are a 100 men in one place—99 of them are black men, and one of them is a white man—say those 99 black men ALL reject the black woman for non-black women, HOWEVER the white man sticks around and is attracted to the black woman—either she canl step out of the box and make strides in her personal life, OR reject this white man, still on a futile quest to find unrequited love from a black man who she’ll never get. Think about it……

@42 No thanks!!! I like my meat dark! LOL. Not to mention, I don’t think the reason black women should date outside their race is because black men do it. Everyone should pick a mate that makes them happy. For me there is nothing better than a bright white smile coming off a chocolate face. Or a swagger and walk like Denzel. Hmmm. Picture 50s back or Hill Harper’s eloquence. Jumping that fence is difficult when there is so much flavor on this side. OK, I’m smiling too hard right now!!!!!! Check out this month’s issue of Essence and the DO Right Brothers section, it’s also on their web site.

Isn’t that KG’s wife, and not just KG and ‘guest’?

WHO is TO’s guest? she’s super hot!

uh @ #49.

WTF.. I understood what you were saying in post #42. But u straight lost me with this one! Here is what u said:
If you’re a chocolate coclored sister, I gotta ask u—how many of those same brothers LOVE YOU??? Despite them turning away from you, and arent interested, then whats your opinon of them??

My response to that misunderstood nonsense is…Men dont turn away from me! Men find me attractive! Classic example.. Since a child my family has maintained the same phone #. To this day ppl still call to get back INTOUCH WITH ME. ESPECIALLY THE EX’S. I still talk to my second boyfriend for goodness sakes and it’s like no we aint getting back together, OH HERE’S THE KISSER..HE IS AS DARK AS ME AND LUVS MY DARK BUTT..LOL

….and as an extra point, I PERSONALLY know a number of black women who selectively date or marry because of skin colour. One of my cousins, now married, only ever dated lightskinned black men or mixed guys, because she was more attracted to them than dark skinned men. So remember, sisters can be hung up on shades of black just as much as brothers.

P.S. KG’S WIFE IS VERY PRETTY. THEY LOOK CUTE TOGETHER.

i’m LOVIN Tichina’s look!!!!!

#54, you def. have a point. Black women have preferences, too. I definitely prefer dark chocolate, and am light skinned. I wouldn’t reject a light-skinned black man, but their features have to be nice to catch my eye. The same goes for a chocolate man. I’m not just gonna be attracted to any one just because he is chocolate. The features have to catch my eye, too, but I’m a die-hard chocolate man lover, lol. So, yes, it’s not just men on that preference/attraction thing.

omg…where has Braylon Edwards been my whole life? He is so fine… i need to start watching football

@53, sorry Im sure I confused some of the other readers too with that. What I think I was trying to say….stemming from my earlier post is that, again, preference is all good, however when someone is rejected SO MANY TIMES by the type of man you love the most (eg black men), I’m just saying, is it worth it anymore, kind of like pursuing a lost cause.

But Tenderoni, I didnt mean to generalize anyone, cuz I see u got someone who you love very much so do you I was referring to certain black women, who are sadly not getting anyone who loves them. Love is love at the end of the day.

When a sister does date or marry out of her race, and it’s in real life, Hollywood, or even a movie, I get annoyed how the racial element of the relationship is the FOCAL POINT of it all, this whole trying “something new”. I don’t really have any reservations about dating white men, as I see them anyone else who can LOVE you. I’d never go into one with perceptions about race, or fear of stepping into “new territory” or that whole “Something New” mentality. The fact that we’re all humans is our common feature in this world and thats all that matters.

I don’t get it! I simply do not understand. Why do all the tall men I see, whether celeb or average joe, seem to only hook up with short women? Nothing personal against short women. But I stand at 5′11″ without shoes so it urkes me to see the odd coupling. I get approached all the time by men who are shorter than myself and it’s like, “are you serious?” The height difference bothers me. I can’t do the short guys, I’m sorry.

I definatley feel tha somet folks make this light/dark skin thing a bigger deal than it needs to be..

I think Michael Strahan and Nicole Murphy look relly good together.

LaLa - can I be your stylist…..pleeze?

Wassup wit Toccara and that girl?

Dang, Shaun Robinson cant get a date….must rought out there…lol

Everyone looks good though.

YOU GUYS KILL ME. YOU TALK ABOUT A BLACK MAN WHEN HE MARRY A DARK SKIN SISTA (USHER). THEN YOU F-ING GET MADE WHEN THEY GET WHITE OR BRIGHT. MAKE UP YOUR MINDS PEOPLE!!!!

@Lisa, you mentioned that “Jumping that fence is difficult when there is so much flavor on this side.” I respect your preference sis, but the word “fence” i dont get. You prefer black men that cool but whys there gotta be a fence in the first place? In a free country, there shouldnt be any barriers like this.

Poster # 36, that is EXACTLY THE PROBLEM. Black people do not care about each other or what’s goes on in our community. I love Black people and do what I can to help our community improve. Black Americans minds are POISONED and that is evident by some of the things that have been said on this site thus far. Black people in this country have been programed to believe White is better. So we will use excuses like, “It’s my personal preference” to justify the poison running rampant through our minds. We will go out and get pregnant by a white or hispanic fool simply because we want “a light skinned baby with good hair”, and justify if by saying “I just have a preference for light skin”. You will have sista’s wearing 3 shades lighter foundation on their face, and they will justify it by saying, “it’s my preference”. No no no. I would like to see our people healed to the point of where we can look at photos of black people at the Espy awards and the women reflect the true variety in the Black community and not just the light skinned segment. I want to see a day where Black American women are just as comfortable with natural hair as they are with weaves (and Black men accept them for it). I want to see the statistics involving blacks in interracial relationships more balanced. In 70% of all interracial relationships involving blacks, the male is black and the female is of another race. So that means in interracial relationships involving blacks, in ONLY 30% of the cases the female is black. THAT IS ALARMING and begs the questions of why it is so off balance? Is it a case of Black men are attracted to women of other races more, or is it that men of other races aren’t attracted to Black women as much?

When they did the doll study back in the 1960’s, then again in 2000 where they layed out a black doll and a white doll, and asked black children (male and female) a series of questions including which doll was the prettiest and all but 1 chose the white doll, WE AS BLACK PEOPLE CANNOT blow that off as simply, “well it’s their personal preference”. These children grow up to be adults and subconciously STILL hold those thought patterns and will excuse those twisted thought patterns as simply “a preference”.

We may all have our preferences but Black American’s preferences for the most part has been influenced by White standards and as a black person, that bothers me. We have to look a little deeper and heal ourselves.

Everyone looks nice…. COMMON Factor everyone had a lightskin or white woman on their arm! Is this a requirement as a pro player? Colorism is alive!

I have dated on every scale of the color spectrum. I have dated every possible side of Black, Latino, Asian and White. I do admit, I am very proud of my current boyfriend who is a “dark butt”. But he is so fine his complexion never crossed my mind. We have been together for a while now and we are expecting a baby. The only thing that once bothered me about his color is how negatively people reacted to the news. “That baby gonna be Black” was the usual reaction. The first couple of times I heard this, I was pissed at the nerve of some folks. Then I got sarcastic with it like, “naw, the little nucca gonna come out Chinese”.

@64 Khia, are you serious….the fence was just a metaphor…in a free country race shouldn’t be a barrier either, however it’s the subject of your discussion.

@67 My sister went through the same thing when she was pregnant…ppl can be so ignorant. Everyone said “ooohhh that baby is gonna look just like his black father”….

P.S. Tamara, I think KG is 6′11” even you would look really short next to him

This Braylon Edwards is a cutie. I’ve never seen him before. NEW MEAT IN THE BUILDING! He is younger than I, but he is sexy as hell. I love a man with a goatee. Now, all the non goatee wearing men, please don’t attack me. lol

I still love me some Melo, he just looks like he can lay it down. Maybe that explains why LaLa is still “engaged” after 2 bambinos.

Everyone looks nice.

Now, I had to check myself on this post because I also noticed all the light skinned, white women on the arms of the atheletes. I checked myself because I LOVE and prefer chocolate men. I have a preference myself. Now I’m sure it isn’t for the same reason that every pro athelete run to the Anything But Black outlet and find them a trophy wife but it’s their right to have a preference as well.

Yung Berg just took his preference way too far in his explanation and put his Nike in his mouth indefinately.

BTW….I dated dark skinned boys all my life but married a red bone. How about that for ironic. Just proves that if you look on the inside the outside doesn’t really matter.

lala gotta be a damn money hungry dumbass fool to keep shacking up with carmelo’ sorry ass while he still go out on the prowl smashin every groupie …bottom bitch

SAY WHAT U WANT BUT VICTORIA BECKHAM IS A BAD ASS CHICK!! I LOVE HER ASS

AND NICK LACHEY CAN GET IT…ALL OF IT!
