Ashanti’s video is adorable, loves it! I like the whole “Stepford Wife” theme and Nelly looks hot in the video. Those two are the cutest couple. Thats funny how she had her hair rolled in soda cans, I swear they give your hair the best volume..lol!
Love Alicia’s video. Very positive & I love how she shows the real women that she portrayed at the end of the video. Alicia looks beautiful in the video and nice surprise to see Jada.

PS. That was nice how she is reppin her and Nellys relationship without the fear of the “gossip.” Celebs should recoqnize by now if u take the position to be in the spotlight be fearless to the fact that your personal life is also spotlighted. So there is nothin wrong with reppin the fact that your still “a human bein” that lives the typical human life….u have relationships…u love to eat..u love to hang out just like any other so called “ordinary person” why hide what ppl already acknowledge….if I was a celeb datin another celeb I would give two la de daz what anybody has to say or think? Its my life and im livin…so for that ASHANTI thats wassup ma…dont be afraid to let the world who u love and who loves you. That its my life shh*t is played out and some of these celebs really need to grow up and shade light to the fact that ur just not a workaholic but you love to live a normal more realistic life.

WOOOW. Im not feelin the song or the video. I thought since the song was not that great she would make it up with a sexy video wit nelly but no we got this. This wsa a bad single choice in my opinion, she shoulda went with things you make me do, the track she did with my man robin thicke or even girlfriend would have been better than Good good.

The video and the song is wack!. The cute part is when they kiss, makes them look like a real couple.

Awwwwwww. Well that was the cutest video ever!!! I loved it. They look great together and it’s great they show affection. Such a cute Black couple. The song is pretty good, not great, but I like it. I have to give it to Ashanti, her music stands out and she keeps it interesting… she looks FAB…. And Nelly is just extra scrumptous as usual. He doesnt have to be Mr. Tough Guy all the time and thats so attractive.
AKeys is a class act. She is the only female Black singer out who has a message in her music other than why did he leave me, I’m over you, I love you, let’s be together blah blah. All that is great but we needs thought provoking positive songs from our R&B sistas too!!

Personally, I believe she doesn’t realize how stereotypical and offensive this video is, not saying that other’s aren’t, but this one really seemed odd being framed by a top rated female artist. Her video will continue to add to the oppression of women, especially black women, and how the are valued in society. She’s playing into the ideological structure of male hierarchy. I guess young girls need to know that to keep your man you have to have that “good good” and clean, wear heals while cooking, etc,.
I was a fan, but just like Lauren Hill said, “You might win some, but you just lost one!”

And for those who think this video is “Awww, so cute” you need to really get your priorities straight. It’s not just a video my people, read between the lines!
Ashanti I thought you would have matured wayyy past this point, guess not. Whatever sells right? I’m broke, your rich, So i guess you “good good”. SMDH

“Cute, I like the Nelly cameo!! They make a cute couple, but when they going to get married?”
DAMN!!!! not to knock your comment or anything and I never really call someone out. BUT whatever happen to dating? Why does everyone have to rush down the aisle. As long as she is not pushing out babies for him or hindering her life due to the relationship, then whats the problem? I just dont understand.

I don’t like the song but the video is cute. I’ve always respected ashanti and her video’s. Each time she brings something new! And I don’t care what know one says I liked her first video, It was creative and she told a story!!! Nelly looks hot as well. Gotta love looking a nelly although his music is falling off!! Smooches…

# 30 it is not that deep, come on. There are way worst Videos than this one.
I think she looks very cute and I am not an Ashanti fan but this was very new and cute and it does not look like anything beyonce has done so do go there with that.
It actually looks like something gwen or fergie would have done but she made it her own style.
I am impressed

@28- ole chile is not that damn serious. she was just bein cheerfull/playfull; really don’t think she was trying to be stereotypical.
The video was cute. Since i see she’s trying to up her image i was thinking she was going to come out with something rounchy. But good to see she decieded to play it up!!! GO ‘SHANTI!!!!

My prioritties ARE straight. Just because I think this video is cute doesn’t mean I’m any less of a woman.
As someone else pointed out, there are videos worse than this one.
You’re probaly the type of person to be pissed off at the song “I’m Dreaming Of A White Christmas”.
Stop being over analytical.

I agree Melina is doin it with these videos…im all 4 creativity and something diffrent. The songs ok…not the best…but she looks great n the video. It reminds me of “you know im no good” by amy wine-o, because of the dark background and the 50’s 60’s look.

I ACTUALLY LIKE THE SONG AND VIDEO. FOR STARTERS, I LIKE THE FACT THAT SHE REINVENTED HERSELF W/O THE WHOLE MURDER INC PERSONNA. SECOND, IT CAPTURES HER TRUE APPEAL WHICH IS PLAYFUL, BUBBLY, AND SEXY (WHICH IS WHY PEOPLE LIKED HER IN THE FIRST PLACE) TO MAKE UP FOR MINIMAL SINGING SKILLS. I SAID MINIMAL, NOT LACK OF B/C I FEEL THAT SHE’S OBVIOUSLY HAD EXTENSIVE VOCAL TRAINING, THEREFORE SHE CAN CARRY A NOTE NOW…

Nelly saves the video for me and that’s not my opinion just cuz I’m from the STL. Idk Ashanti just wasn’t believable in this role for me. It kinda was annoying w/ all of those damn words popping up. It’s annoying enough hearing JD now I gotta read him lol. It was too much going on. Too much sexiness, too much color, and too much weave lol. Try again Ashanti. I’m sure that this song will rise on the charts though because that’s the music that sells today. She should’ve went w/ that duet w/ her and Mr. Robin Thicke.

I really like it. It is cute and funny. The only thing that I did not like was the background being Black throughout the whole video but it may be a reason for that in which she will explain so that’s cool. lol at her having soda cans for hair rollers too cute.

Everyone has their right to an opinion, Shouldn’t have attacked individuals priorities. If you read my opinions correctly, you would see that i didn’t take heat off other videos, that are in my opinion = offensive.
Stop being over analytical….stop being so passive!
I mentor young girls at a B&GC who are affected by the roles we are stereotyped in rap videos, so i take it a lot deeper.

the video is alright…i do like the song…wen i first heard it..i really liked the song…but for some reason her a nelly seem like they want attention…i dunno..maybe im trippin….but they seem like they want people to be in their business..not sayin they need to hide everything..and not be affectionate..that’s just the vibe i get from them..even @ the BET awards..wen she came outta nowhere..to announce nelly…ok..all of that wasn’t needed…but hey..they look cute..and i wish them all the luck in the world in their relationship

I’m FAR from passive.
I’m not easily offended by things such as this. It doesn’t affect me or my relationship where EVERYTHING is 50/50.
So sad there are young women who see images as this as reality. Luckily, I was raised not to be one of those. It’s good that there’s someone like you to be there to mentor those easily swayed by the media

I rather see something better then nothing. Get them Ashanti and nelly. It seem like if they not a jay-z or beyonce couple it all wrong please.

@ 57
I didn’t mean to come out swinging fist, lol. But everytime I see US allowing ourselves to continue to be de-valued by society and the media, I get furious. I know there are other things to attack other then video’s, but this is something that is directed and advertise to our youth and affect’s their everyday encounters.
And yes, this is certainly not the worst video, but it doesn’t mean that it should be taking lightly. I’m just shocked ashanti went this low, i mean damn.
We always talking about how flyy or how cute things are, but when the children in our neighboor are interpret and except these images, they are lost. White children are not hurting like black children are when it comes to rap music affects, despite them being the main consumers.

Not feeling song or video. I think I’m at that age now where hip hop and typical R&B acts just don’t do it for me. I think the older and wiser (emphasis on wiser) you get the less patience you have for foolishness.

OK people calm down……..It’s a cute video for a cute song that’s it nothing more, stop trying to make it about stereotypes and all that other stuff. This is a artist showing another side of herself it’s not meant to upset anybody, or make anybody feel bad about who there are.
