Wow… I haven’t seen Tamia in such a long time. I still play her songs. It would be nice to see her perform and come out with a new album soon. And I see she and her hubby are still hanging on strong. That’s a good look.

I love Tamia and Grant. It’s so wonderful to see a black married couple thriving for years. Especially with both of them being in the entertainment industry. Tamia is a sweetheart. They genuinely seem happy.

Solange is beautiful here from the ankle up. The bright yellow shoes were just too much IMO. We know you are different ghurl, but no need to look clownish trying to get that message out. Mama Knowles could try a shorter hair cut and lighter color to soften her look. If I was Solange, the moment Tamia stepped into the building, I would have dipped. LOL! Would somebody alert Matt Knowles to the fact that he’s no playa and needs to dress like his 60 year old grandfather self should dress. At least a sport coat, dress shoes and dress slacks would have complimented Mama Knowles pantsuit. Queen Aretha is looking nice. I hope no one made the mistake of calling anyone else the queen in her presence. LOL! Neyo looks like he’s doing his thang.

I love Grant and Tamia. People always talk about Will and Jada (who ARE a beautiful couple), but these two definitely deserve props because they have been hanging in there for a minute.

BIG PROPS to Aretha—after looking a mess earlier this year (Grammy’s and such) she looks alright. Has she lost weight? I wonder how many bodyguards had to break up the potential ruckus between her and the Knowles camp. Seriously, she needs to give that whole “Queen” label a rest and move on. The way she complained about Beyonce was totally uncalled for. Bee has nothing to apologize about, so all she can do is remain graceful and civil. Retha, you were damn wrong for that.
My boy NeYo looks FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE as hell.

Solange just loves to be the odd one. But she looks cute anyways, I love her Champagne Chronic Nightcap song..Go SOLO!!
Mama Knowles STAYS wearing Blacks and Browns..but atleast she looks good for her age. And dresses good for her age.
Ne-Yo is just a force at times, but I like him.

Whoever does Aretha Franklin’s make-up, should be shot. Suprisingly, Tina knowles actually looks kinda good.

@ 3 NO, HER TATTS ARE NOT FAKE, YOU CAN SEE THEM IN THE PERFORMING PIC. THEY ARE ANGEL WINGS, ONE REPRESENTING HER SON, THE OTHER FOR A DECEASED FRIEND.
EVERYONE LOOKS NICE!!! YAY!!! Love, love The Hills!!! Tamia is coming out with a live album shortly, I heard. I like Solo’s color combo! She looks great! As long as Aretha kept the girls covered, she’s all right with me!

Solo, I thought you looked good until I saw your hair. Why, when your sis is the queen of lacefronts, can’t you get a better one? I may get some ish for this, but I like the hot pink belt/yellow shoe thing. I’ve really been liking most of her outfit choices recently and I LOVE “I Decided”, so I’m rooting for you, girl. Don’t let me down!

it’s nice to see Grant & Tamia. I hope Tamia is in good health. I’m really mad at Grant’s pants though lol
The only thing cute about Solange are her shoes lol How come the Knowles girls never touch up their edges? They sit in a mirror and put on all that make-up and never once notice those “natural” roots? lol

Tina’s outfit is nice for an older woman. I think she looks great here but you know this is Beyonce’s future. That body just screams “Beyonce, ten years into the future.” And, I said I woudn’t criticize Solange because I’ve seen her snotty little attitude on tv and I’ve basically come to believe she not reads blogs but comments on herself so I guess I’ll just say—trying way hard, Solange.

I think Tina Knowles spawned Beyonce’s fame obsession…..she and Matthew are so fame obsessed, when Solo had her baby you couldnt pay Tina to be with Solo…she was photopping with Beyonce in promoting DIL or something….but now that Solo has some photoops…..here she is! Wow.

Everybody looked nice. I’m not sure about the belt/shoe combo for Solange. I think she’s trying too hard to have a style. It should just come naturally. And am I the only one to notice Mama Knowles’ pinky toe popping out of her shoe. LMAO!!! Come on now!

Loves Tamia&Grant– Loves Tamia’s music
Solo I like her outfit it looks good.. B favors her mom…Areatha doesn’t look bad to me.. Not everyone has to wear a pound of make-up besides I don’t rememeber her ever really being heavly made up anyway..

I love Solange’s style. She looks great when she’s wearing store bought threads as opposed to Mama Knowles’ creations.

I don’t understand the hype about Solange. I mean, really, who is she? I have heard her music and to be honest, it sounds like all the rest. BORING….the entire black entertainment scene of this generation lacks creativity and originality.Even the fashion is hideous in every way.I have my own opinion and I think that the whole Knowles klan are imposters. But that’s just my opinion.

shhh..................
Monday, July 21, 2008 /
Why does Solange wig/weave always look busted, her edges are always nappy and she need to do her eyebrows quick, have them arched or something, though she be trying to be an odd ball, she needs to really do something with ther hair, immediately

Tamia is so pretty. She looks different though. Is Grant Hill ok.. I know he was sick.
Case and point. on the Nas&Kelis post. I talked about having a pop color is the “IN” thing to do.. Just look at Solange.. Same thing those shoes are fire so she can get away with it. LUV it.
