ashanti really has been looking good lately….i mad she always wearing pink or red lips with every outfit tho…….and her mother needs 2 get a damn life 4real…..i know a lot of young artists have their mom as their manager but we very rarely see pics of them following their kids around ALL THE DAMN TIME!

Original Truth (I don't care if ya get mad)

Friday, July 18, 2008 /

lol.. I like Ashanti just cuz…. they look like some distant fam of mine… I think a great haircut or hairstyle would give her the pop she needs to finish her style and work ina few more interesting clothing and colors! Great color combo works for Shani

Ashanti is so F list and I saw her new video and all I have to say is congrats to Melina (the director) for putting together a visual that distracted from the audio! She sounds horrible on that song! In parts she’s just talking through her nose…I have no idea how this woman ever ever became famous. Oh and Melina, I have to get you too, girl: Please stop perpetuating the lame idea that the only way a woman can be empowered and assert herself through some feminist act is to show her ass. You’ve tried it with Beyonce and now with Ashanti in that horrible antifeminist video and I really wish you’d stop it. They look like whores…not strong women because if they really wanted to assert their independence, they’d do something other than what they always do, WHICH IS SHOW THEIR ASSES. Okay? It’s lame. Stop.

Kinda on the fence w/Ashanti. Although a beautiful face. She has the complexion that goes good with makeup. She always looks vibrant. To me her personality is too bubbly,cocky,hood, and conceited like? My thoughts.

Ashanti looking good good in these photos.

And Tina looks better than that other famous Mama Tina…yall know who I mean, she looks better put together :)

But Shani’s lil sister is soooooooooooooooooooo damn ugly—it’s like the black Jessica and Ashlee Simpson (one pretty sister, one ugly one)!

#15 A manager does not have to be with their client at ALL times, so I agree with other commenters, as I am tired of seeing her too, especially since Ashanti’s older now. HOWEVER, I think her mom keeps her grounded

Ashanti has been scoring perfect 10’s with her image this year. Examine her from head to toe. I’m beyond impressed. Beyonce’s hiatus helps this.

I think her and her mom has a great relationship how about that, if i became rich my mom would not have to be my manager for her to come everywhere with me, she has a song on her album dedicated to her mom and she goes back in time. so why not take care of her mom and let her mom be with her, damn yall have to find some.do the thang and i’m glad you and your mom have a close relationship whether manager or not.

73.

Bey is on a break from music, thats why she has been dressing down lately.

Of course Ashanti is looking good, she has been out promoting an album. It would only make sense for her to look at least a little decent.

Please believe once Beyonce starts promoting her new album (which is due in November by the way) she will be back on her style game.

Bey isnt promoting any music or movies, so she has decided to take a break from being GLAM all the time. Well deserved break too. Being GLAM all the time is too much work when your not really doing anything. Bey hasnt been to any to any award shows lately or any industry parties so why should she be dressed up for no reason?

She doesn’t have a bad attitude at all. She happens to a fun, viberant, charming lady. People act as if these celebrities aren’t human. She’s just the way she is on TV. Folks act as if these celebs aren’t suppose to have bad days or get upset, or have problems like the rest of the world. They got emotions too. Folks kill me, always wanting these celebs to be perfect, a doll, and a robot. I’m glad she does live like a normal person.

Those shoes are off the hook for REAL !!!!!

She may not be the most talented chick in the game that would be Alicia Keys but she is the cuttest and her man Nelly is the bomb !!!

Go Ashanti and shake the haters off ! Keep doing the damn thing !!!

At least your mama don’t tell you what to wear like a five year old child or an old lady !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know what, Ashanti us only shining because Bey is out of the limelight for a minute. I am no hater, but she cannot sing or dance. She is cute but she needs to slim those legs and thigh down first before she start wearing tight stuff like those shorts, if your thighs rub then something should tell you that you dont need to have that on. Ashanti is the type of chic that needs to be in other places, like maybe acting or somthing. I think some things that she wears she look a little nasty. Only my girl Bey can rock some tight sh– becasue her body is flawless and she has no cellulite and no thigh rubbage.

86.

Sooooo….no one told her it’s only necessary to take the tag off the bottom of her shoes? And that would be the damn foot she has popped up in the pic. Hot Mess!

88.

SayItLOUD

Friday, July 18, 2008 /

Well, Shanti sure is looking a lot better lately. I don’t think it has anything to do with Beyonce not being out. Ashanti is a naturally cute girl to IMHO. Without makeup she is still cute. Her face looks young and she is dressing young and fresh. She really doesn’t look a day older than Rihanna to me. Beyonce looks way harder these days, with or without makeup. I just think Ashanti’s genes are good. She will preserve much better than beyonce, just look at a picture of Beyonce mom, she looks really old and that;s what Beyonce face is going to look like as she ages. Shanti’s mom doesn’t have any wrinkles and the full face will not crack as fast as she ages. Shanti is shining because she really is a cute girl and does not come across fake to me. She remind me of someone who can go out without a lot of makeup and weave. Beyonce looks much better all done up and she is aging much faster.

89.

T-Rocka

Friday, July 18, 2008 /

Oh Goodness, THSI IS NOT ABOUT BEYONCE. So why bring her up? Can these ladies have their own shine? Without it being a comparison fight between fans. Geez, Ashanti is Ashanti, and she was going to put her music out, whether Beyonce was on stage or not. Leave it alone. This is what makes these things so annoying. Somebdoy always got to bring some other female artist when they are not the subject.

90.

Double A

Friday, July 18, 2008 /

Soooooo…..no one told her that the tag needs to be removed from the bottom of shoes before they’re worn…? ESPECIALLY if that’s the foot she’s going to be lifting up in pics!!! Hot mess!

And another thing….. when has it ever been ok for celebrities to prance around in booty shorts with cellulite!?!?!? NO MA’AM??
I could see if you were at the beach trying to have a little privacy and the paparazzi just so happens to catch your fatties hangin’ out….but this is not the beat….
I know you trying to keep up with your competition Shanti, but don’t do it like that…
The dresses look nice tho!

I think ashanti is naturally pretty. I think Beyonce is beautiful too,but not natural. To me if someone has to alter their body in any type of way is not naturally pretty. Beyonce,Kelly,Rihanna,LilKim, and many more have had some type of surgery to make them be more beautiful. That is why I like Brandy. She hasn’t change herself to fit the image of what the media emphasises as beauty. If anyone on this blog could have some type of sugery to change their features, they would be one of the most beautiful person in the world. I might be wrong,but Ashanti has had so any surgeries to change herself. If she has, then she’s not a natural pretty girl.

As for her cd,it is very good. She has improved so much on this cd. I am so glad to see so many you all are saying good things about her. She has stepped her game up in 08. Can’t wait for Brandy to drop!!!!!

well, well, well LMAO Ashanti putting it down like that.
she’s looking good. If she keeps up this new look? She won’t have to worry about any competition because she is killin’ it with her look. As for the comments about her cellulite, she is not the first to show untoned flesh, Ms. Knowles-Carter has done that a time or two in the past so I guess Ashanti gets a pass too. Now, the tag on the bottom of the shoes need to go ASAP, but she’s looking hot otherwise.

Alot of celebs have close relationships with their parents, but you don’t see them in every picture and at every event. I can understand if ashanti was young but she is pushing 30 and her mother is in every pic and event. I remember in one interview she was saying she lied to her mother to so she can go on a vacation alone.

The tag on her shoe, is not that serious people. It can be taken care of. Maybe she dind’t know it was still on there. Either way, you don’t need to trip off the planet over it.

106.

oooh nasty

Friday, July 18, 2008 /

LOVVVE the dress Shanti has on. Don’t forget she got that Good, Good. Gone Girl!!!

As far as her momma go its like (I said LIKE yall) she wish she were the one in the spotlight. Now that I think about it further its almost (I said ALMOST) like she trying to compete with her daughter.

Other mommagers (Usher, Brandy, Papa Knowles) you hardly ever saw them ALLL up in the camera posing like people came or wanted to see them. And when they were in the picture they would be dressed in the role of a manager ie blazer, slacks or whatever not a tight dress showing your breasts (not that theres anything wrong with that, I’m just saying).

No she don’t need her mommager with her all the time.

She can get it!

Ashanti’s complexion is the best of any of her competition. I have seen her without makeup and her skin is pretty and flawless, she’s got that even, tight, smooth skin. She looks like a porcelain doll in that picture with her mom wearing the floral get up. I think she’s gorgeous and underated because she doesn’t come across as a barbie type fake. She seems real cool and round the way type but her face is prettier than anyone else out there and she doesn’t really need all the extra. She really is a natural beauty. Other women in the game are called natural but when you see them without all the extra they don’t look anything more than average. Ashanti is way above average because she got great skin and she glows. I’ve seen her in NYC without any makeup and she is stunning.

She looks so pretty in the floral dress. I think her an Rihanna are the cutest young women in music. I have always thought that Ashanti should be ranked much higher because she is really cute.
I am jealous of those legs! *going to work out now*

Ashanti is slaying all the competition. Her body is off da chain. any straight man would want a chick with an ass and legs like that, and a natural beauty in the face. She don’t need a blonde yaki seabiscuit thingy on her head to look good and goo gobs of makeup is not something that she needs to be recognized.

Natural beauty?

Please…she needs a bag of weave and a box full of makeup like every other female artist. Lets not pretend she doesnt.

And how is she slaying the competition? I know her record sales arent slaying a damn thing.

The only real competition she has at the moment is Rihanna. Ciara and Bey dont release new albums till later this year. Please believe had they had albums out right now, we wouldnt be talking about Ashitty at all.

LEARN IT.

since when has ciara been competition to Ashanti? Beyonce maybe, but ciara, no. Ashanti has sold more than BOTH of them as a SOLO ARTIST anyway. Lets not act like you all weren’t bumping to foolish, happy, baby, what’s luv, down 4 u, aint it funny, and/or always on time. The only FAKE in these topics arent the artist, but you all.

Ashanti looks HAWT. Tag on the shoe or not, could u afford it? NO. I see why u mad. Her cd isn’t selling as fast like the others but hell, 15 mil cd ww and ALL the other cds have gone plat or higher in no later than a month, she can afford one commercial flop. The good good vid is hot, twtily is one of the best vids of the year, and ashanti has a great personality. PUNCH SHAN!!!

@115 Shanti is way more natural than the plastic chick with the blonde weaves that’s been looking busted in every photo in the last 3 months or so since she married the camel LOL
Bey ain’t looking like no one competition at all and Ciara? Puleease! Both of them chicks time have come and gone and Shanti looks hella betta than Ciara man looking ass…and Beyonce is not looking so hot lately, and even when she was looking better, she still was overrated. Some of yall are just color struck and amazed by blonde lace fronts, thats all..

@ #118

You can think Ashanti is a natural beauty all you like. But “natural beauty” doesnt sell records and keep people interested. Which is proven by the sales of “The Declaration” album. After a month and two weeks since its release she hasnt even sold 200,000 albums yet. None of her singles have charted high on the Hot 100 charts.

Whether you think Beyonce is a plastic blonde lacefront wearing ugly bitch or not. That plastic blonde lacefront wearing ugly bitch is entertaining and still sales records. Same with Ciara. People are still interested in these two woman.

Where is all the interest for Ashanti?

Take any performance of Ashanti’s and put it against any performance of Beyonce’s on The Beyonce Experience Tour DVD.

Who will come out on top?

But no matter what, someone is always goin to have something to say so lemme get off my soapbox…..

Say what you want. Shante can act wtf can your Bee do in front of a camera? Very plastic, very stiff, no personality whatsoever on the screen not even pretending to be someone else can she break out of the robotic stepford wife, pageant queen fake smile. Ashanti has sold millions, she’s on the grind and even if this CD doesn’t sell 5 million copies, she has had so many hit singles and platinum cd’s. Beyonce will retire because she knows her career is on its last leg. Ashanti will have a much longer career because at least she can do something other than shake her ass…mind you Shanti actually does have an ass..bey don’t, she has hips but not a booty in sight to save her life. You can’t take away from what Shanti has already accomplished. We shall see what beyonce brings when her shit drops later this year. She is getting old and washed up now. Ashanti stay looking fresh..maybe because her man ain’t ashamed to claim her in public? She not married to Nelly and he shows more love and affection toward her than Camel face ever shows Beyonce..maybe that’s why she looks so drawn out and miserable and old like her mama lately? u think? It remains to be seen how many cd’s Beyonce will sell when she comes back out. after several misses and attempts at hit singles she finally hit her stride with that to the left shit. heavily pimped by her daddy, she almost fell off the radar there, but ummm we will see what happens when she comes out again. Looking old and washed up and married now isn’t too interesting to the streets, so don’t start counting your chickens just yet…

Ashanti looks exotic and very pretty. I use to think she looks part spanish or something. Her skin is flawless. that word is thrown around a lot but I haven’t seen any other chick in the game with skin like Ashanti’s. And I mean with or without makeup. Look at her tone, her face looks amazing.

lol @ yall still focusing on looks. I give two fucks about how either Ashanti or Beyonce look. I am talking about releavancy and importance. And Ashanti isnt important anymore.

lmao @ people saying Beyonce is getting old and on her last leg. Ashanti is one year older than Beyonce. WTF!!!!! Was does age have to do with how talented you are? Plus, when did being in your late twenties mean old.

Especially since Madonna is 50 and she still doing her thang. If an artist keeps people interested they will stay releavant no matter the age.

Like Jay-Z said “Men lie, Women lie, but numbers dont”.
Face it Ashanti is irreleavant in music now.
I am done arguing with delusional Ashanti stans who dont want see the facts.

She be the Illest

Saturday, July 19, 2008 /

Beyonce name shouldnt even be mentioned here. it ain’t even about her.

Ashanti got it on lock with her look and she don’t have to prove anything by being in competition with ciara or beyonce. This girl has gotten so many opportunities from acting to singing and whether you think she has talent or not Shan can’t be stopped.
She doesn’t have anything to prove at all. She has sold 15 million as a solo artist, as someone else said, she has already out sold everyone mentioned here as a solo artist. sooo actually they have something to prove. Shan is GOOD GOOD. and don’t forget it peeps.

Make It Rain

Saturday, July 19, 2008 /

Hold up, If Ashanti was so irrelevant why the hell you up in here discussing her for?
As said before, Ashanti can switch gears and do acting if she needs to. Can you say the same about beyonce? hellNO lol Jhud showed up and showed out on her ass and rained on her oscar parade so don’t even trip. Yep, Ashanti is older than Beyonce but LOOKS WAY YOUNGER sooooooooooooooooooo don’t go there. The only delusional people here is Beyonce fans who ain’t going to be able to face the facts that Beyonce still gots to catch up to what Ashanti has already sold. When Beyonce as a solo artist has sold more than 15 million world-wide, lets talk. Until then step all the way off with that ish.

And yeah we saying Ashanti looks good, yeah we talking about her looks the same way yall was talking about Beyonce a few years ago, don’t front you see she fading fast but Shan still looking hot and young. Yall Bey stans hate on Shan because you can see she looking fierce! Don’t get nervous, tell ya girl Bey to get her hair done and a new stylist and not to ever leave the house again looking like she bout to shake a cup for change on the corner. I know you saw them pics of her with her uninterested hubby looking tore up. Shan won’t be caught out there like that! believe that shit.

BEYONCE is killin AShanti, u guys are dumb ass fuck. Don’t get me wrong she is a pretty girl, but nowhere near as beautiful as beyonce.u mean to actually try covince me that if Beyonce and Ashanti were standing next to each other(both on there best day) u would choose ashanti???? GET THA FUCK OUTA HERE.People always want to bring weave and make up into the equation, like ashanti don’t pile in the weaves(look @ every video) and pile on the make up.THEY ALL DO!!! Just because beyonce looks the most close to flawless with it all on compared to them, she gotta look fake??? But disregard all the make up that ashanti washes off her face every night. It is obvious that facial wise BEYONCE looks better than ashanti,cmon don’t give me that natural bullshyt, we see natural muthafuckas walkin the streets everyday, I don’t want to see it on tv too, a star is suppose to look like a star.Blonde weaves and make up, HA ashanti has dark weaves and make up…when ashanti wasn’t out yall wasn’t sayin shyt about her. When bee come back all yall haters and secret beyonce lovers just gon hop back on her shyt again, talk about her but still buy her cd,go to her concerts, have you’re eyes glued to whatever she’s on… It never fails.ashanti can pile the make up on(which she does) and NEVER compare to beyonce.if u gon compare people to her let it b CAssie, or HALLE, OR KIM K., NAomi,CHRistina MIlian beutiful women that can actually compete… HELL on her best day CIARA can slam ashati, kuz her features are more intact. Ashanti looks like JIMNEY CRICKET.She actually has a rather odd face, attractive yes but odd

Rebecca Lightyears, people are talking about Ashanti’s looks, because this blog post is about her look and fashion. DUH………..it seems you must not read properly.

Secondly, what does this got to do with Beyonce at all? You guys bring the chick up at the drop of a hat. Just to start some drama. So there’s no need to call anybody a stan. When youre clearly one yourself, but to a different artist. Yet, spitting venom at Ashanti, and tryin to tear her down, Just to build Beyonce up. Who has nothing to do with this topic at all. Not to mention, the chick is overpraised, overrated, and not that darn great herself. When was she ever entertaining? Her presonality is as dead as door nail. If not robotic like a computer.

I don’t know why you’re quoting Jay Z. NUMBERS DO LIE. Simply because people get payola, sound scan and Billboard gets “fixed” to make things look better than they really are for certain artist. This industry is not about numbers. It’s about politics, and who you wash your hands with. So you using Jay’s quote as an example is bullcrap. Because numbers decline. G Unit just flopped like a fish out of water. 50 and his crew is suppose to be considered one of the biggest rappers/rap crews in the world in years. Yet, what are they doing selling 100k first week? I thought so. It just goes to show, no matter how big or famous, superstar you are. It don’t last forever.

I don’t know why you’re using Madonna as an example. She’s white. Black artist never have and never will get the things or treatment she’s had. On top of that, she’s a non-singing hoe herself. The only way she ever reinventd herself, was through controversey.Moving on. If Ashanti is soooooooooo Irrelevant, why are you talking about her? She has her name in your mouth. She matters, or you wouldn’t even bother saying anything about her. I thought so. In this day and age, where artist are getting pushed back or dropped. Ashanti has managed to release a fourth album, and is on her second single. That says a lot about her relievance. She’s been here since 2002…………AND SHE’S STILL HERE. WQhether you want her to be or not.

#131 see thats your opinion because you are a bey stan. not everyone would choose bey over ashanti. Are you fuckin crazy? just because yall stans think light skin and blonde yaki weave, creole yada yada yada makes you the hottest it doesn’t. We have seen beyonce made up, and it is getting to be the same ol same ol eveytime you see her.. she can only rock the blonde barbie weave for so long before it gets boring. But when she takes all that shit off, not so good looking, Ashanti is beautiful with dark hair and her body is thicker, her booty is tighter and her legs are bananas. She can definitely get it. If you are a chick then you won’t understand.

I’d take Ashanti any day over Beyonce. NO DOUBT. Nelly got the chick with the baddest body, cutest natural beautiful face and she will be looking like that way past 30. If you seen Beyonce mother you know wtf she will be looking like and that shit is scary. Jay will divorce her when she starts cracking in the face and gaining weight like her mom. Just like Russel dumped Kimora for a model chick, and just like Diddy dropped Kim’s old ass. Just wait and see. Shan going to be the one to outlast all of em. She got the good good.

Jayz is gay anyway so WTF who cares who he thinks is the hottest.

Nelly and Shanti look great together and they are not some fake couple who will try to hide it when they marry.

Shanti is gorgeous and she looks like the kind of girl that can take her makeup off, pull her hair back and still look amazing. She does look like she has some spanish in her or something. And her complexion is just off da chain. Personally, I don’t dislike beyonce but I think she is slippin. When she is wearing makeup, you know she looks different without it. Tyra is not a natural beauty, she is a makeup beauty, and so is beyonce. Ashanti’s legs are the best in the business. Beyonce is a nice looking young lady but to me Ashanti looks like a real woman, no fakeness. I am almost afraid of what beyonce really looks like, after seeing them pictures of her in the club with Jay-Z. Her looks are going to hell fast and its obvious, I hope that when Jay Z said they the next Bobby and Whitney, he wasn’t meaning that literally because we all know how Whitney ended up looking, and she was America’s sweetheart at one point too. beyonce needs to stop drinking and chasing Jay Z’s no good ass around the globe, get some damn sleep and maybe she can start looking good again too!

Saturday, July 19, 2008 /

I think Ashanti is absolutely gorgeous but in a non intimidating way and I think that is why so many people like her look. I think she looks like a gorgeous black female that u would see in any city. I still dont think she is prettier than Beyonce. It has nothing to do with weaves, complexion anything. I simply think Beyonce’s face is prettier and this is from someone who looks closer to Ashanti. My shape is closer to hers, I also have a caramel complexion and roundish face but still I find Beyonce just a little more striking looking than Ashanti. I dont think Ashanti has “spanish” in her. I remember reading an article where she said because of that foolish video and the acting part of it where gotti said “They dont like blacks” or something like that, people asked her at signings if she had latin in her and her response was “Im just black”. Im sure she has something in her from far back as most of us do but that is way different than being half. She is a black girl. I sometimes think its just more popular to say the word “mixed” so therefore when you see a beautiful black chick, you are trying really hard to find something else in them to say what they look mixed with because its hard even for black folks to give credit to black folks for being beautiful on our own, without anything mixed in us.

But back to the subject. I loved her when she first came out but I was just into the way she dressed and her persona. Now that im 27, she is no longer relevent to me except I think she looks good and dresses cute and I like to see her with Nelly. I dont think everyone has to have a Mariah Carey voice so I do think she can sing decent but its just her songs are all boring to me. She’s not the only one. It’s hard to listen to any r&b thats out now. I really dont understand how people can listen to anything 70’s thru the 90’s and actually be satisfied with most of the stuff today.

TruthIsTruth

Saturday, July 19, 2008 /

Well Beyonce is striking to a lot of people because so many black women who do look like Ashanti are always being sold the idea by the media that lighter is better, and that lighter, with blonde hair is the end all be all. Your statement above says it all. You look more like Ashanti but believe that Bey looks better than both of you. That’s pretty sad. That’s America’s idea of beauty. Anything closet to white with narrow features, whether or not they have been augmented by plastic surgery or no LOL People worship that which they feel they can never achieve..Beyonce has sold yall an idea of what american culture heralds as being beautiful and most of her stans worship that image. Truthfuflly, that’s the only reason Jayz calls her the hottest chick in the game. She is light, bright and almost white. even though the image is fake, the hair comes off at night and whether she calls herself black or creole, she is just plain black in the eyes of America. There will always be another standard of beauty to reach. Even though Jay feels he has the hottest chick in the game, Reggie Bush feels like he has a hotter one, he thinks he has one-upped Jay because his chick isn’t ALMOST white. She actually is and she has a fatter ass. Go figure. Negroes need to recognize black women like Ashanti are the epitome of black beauty whether you see women who look like her in every city or not. She is GORGEOUS.
Beyonce is attractive too, but looks less attractive than Ashanti without all the extra. She is selling her image hard, and eventually, she’s not going to be able to pull it off as easily because the expectations of her are going to be higher and higher. Age will catch up to her and the Kim K’s, Rhianna with the natural green eyes, and so on and so on will eventually surpass her. Ashanti will still be here looking like the gorgeous black queen that she is and she won’t have that pressure to look like the light bright and ALMOST (remember almost doesn’t count in the words of Brandy) White.

#144, I don’t think Beyonce’s look is intimidating at all. Most people have seen her without her makeup and hair by now, and they can see that its all smoke and mirrors. Yes she’s cute but she is not the image we see when she is onstage. None of these women look like the image they sell. Ashanti is very beautiful, and so is Tierra Marie, but Rihanna will always trump Tierra because of the light eyes. People. I agree with the above post. People are obsessed with certain looks and features. Why do you think Bey stans hate Ri-Ri so much? They are threatened by her. Hate to see her anywhere near Jay. Same thing, threatened because she is light skin, tall like a model and is stunning. So the same argument applies.

Just as you say people are threatened by Beyonce Knowles-Carter so that’s why they like Ashanti, well the beyonce stans are threatened by Ms. Ri-Ri because they think she could take Jayz. He has talked about the light skin chicks with the wavvy hair. He loved some Chuck-B too and Rihanna has tha look he likes. Ashanti has the look that every dude in the hood would be checkin for if they could see her in real life situations. Beyonce is not more attractive than Ashanti, its just that her image is pimped to death and people love that. Looking like she was in the club next to jigga, most dudes wouldn’t look twice at her.

Truthistruth, I actually agree with your statement for the most part but except when your reffering to me. You assume I think Beyonce is a LITTLE more striking than Ashanti simply because of her blond weave and because she’s like a shade lighter? No not at all! First of all I do not even think Beyonce has “White features” if she was a little darker, no one would say that. Her nose and lips aren’t even smaller than Ashanti’s and I for one HATE blond hair even on white people and think its so played out on Beyonce. I like her with medium brown hair the most like when she was promoting dream girls. I think Beyonce is beautiful but not strictly based off of skin color. I find Gabrielle Union to actually be just as striking as Beyonce and Kenya Moore who is very dark to be better looking than everyone mentioned here and not to mention I think Sanaa Lathan (who is caramel and darker than Be) is the epitome of beauty.

However just because Beyonce is light and has a blond weave does not mean I have to automatically say she’s not as pretty just based on what society thinks of as beautiful. She is just simply a beautiful woman, light, brown, dark whatever, she has a very pretty face PERIOD! I never said Ashanti wasnt beautiful. I said absolutely gorgeous. I said just not as striking as Beyonce and just because im her skin complexion and look more similar to her (never said I was her twin), im not gonna say she is the most beautiful woman in the world or that somehow me saying Beyonce who looks nothing like me is prettier than her that its somehow putting myself down or saying I think she looks better than me. Its hard for me to admit any woman looks better as its hard for all of us women to do that. However, I am not comparing myself to Beyonce or Ashanti.

Also just want to add about Rihanna who I also think is stunning. Its funny how all of a sudden that she’s light skin. When she first came out, she was Ashanti’s color and I dont think because she has light eyes that she trumps anyone based off of that. Most blacks have dark eyes and dark eyes can be beautiful as well. Once again me thinking Beyonce is gorgeous has nothing to even do with what society deems as beautiful. She just simply is. If she got the darkest tan and came out with Naomi Campbells color, I would still think she was beautiful. She just has a pretty face, very symmetrical. Symmetrical does not mean small features, it means all your features go together perfectly whether you have small or large features.

151.

Under My Umbrella

Saturday, July 19, 2008 /

Well here’s my two cents. Ashanti is beautiful and needs no comparison to anyone else. To me, she is one of the most gorgeous girls out now. I don’t think Beyonce looks any better than Ashanti. I do think they have two different types of looks and no matter what there will always be people who will think that Beyonce looks better based on their idea of what beauty is and others will think
Ashanti is prettier based on their ideas. what I dont like is what I keep seeing over and over on these blogs is when people act like everybody has to be compared to beyonce. That needs to stop. There are a lot more beautiful women in the world and a lot of them aren’t even famous. I can walk out my door and see a bunch of great looking people and none of them necessarily look like beyonce.

Liya kabede is striking to me and she does not have light skin. He features are perfectly chiseled. I love her skin too, and she doesn’t wear much makeup. Her face looks like silk.

I like Ashanti and I think she is looking amazing these days.

go ashanti!!

I come on here to comment and find people arguing over Ashanti and Beyonce. I feel like if you are a fan of B your going to think she looks better and if you are a fan of Ashanti you will think she looks better but people these are all opinions as far as looks and everyone isn’t going to feel the same. I am a big Beyonce fan and a like Ashanti also but I happen to think Beyonce looks better makeup weave or not because like someone else said Ashanti is no different she wears lots of both at times so lets not act like she is some completely natural beauty. Also lets be 100
percent Beyonce as a solo artist has 2 albums out to Ashanti 5 albums and she has still outsold Ashanti I know you fans can’t really believe she has outsold B as far as anything sales wise I thought everyone knew that. And Nelly was checking hard for Beyonce but she wasn’t checking for him she choose Jay and then later Nelly picked up Ashanti but that was clearly Beyonce call because he was on her hard. At the same time I want to make it clear that I like Ashanti she just is no competition for Beyonce that’s my opinion. Oh and people stop lying to hate saying that girl had surgery because it’s no proof of that other than what some of these lying blogs say.

Ashanti is more gorgoeus than Beyonce to me. I think she looks more naturally pretty. Beyonce is no competition for Ashanti. Once you get past the blonde Yaki lacefronts, and piles of makeup Beyonce is no prettier than Ashanti. Beyonce had a lot of hype and Jay was on her and so was Nelly but Nelly seems to like what he has now. Everybody’s man was chasing someone else at one point so what does that matter? People please, your own man was prolly trying to get with some other chick before he met up with you. so what? doesn’t mean a damn thing. At least Shanti man ain’t hitting up Rihanna LOL Nelly acts happy to be with Shanti and isn’t stealing her image and giving it to some other heffa. Shanti got his ass on lock.
