she is getting a lot of coverage lately, good for her
well im glad she set the record straight but she still can come off arrongant at times and if the producer said that she should have came down on the producer and not the reporter but she’s young
whatever, Solo! Really whatever.
I couldn’t hear that properly, but seems like solo’s tryna do some damage control. She looked kinda nervous at first imo
That’s right Solange! Stand up and speak for yourself and your family!!
thats my girl and i stand behind everything she said in the interview! get that album its a classic!
i was sad when i realized ChampagneChronicNightCap wasnt on there
thats my joint
yo she just said what she had to say and that is cool! not everyone would have done that beacuse they would think that they don’t have to back up what they said. But she is obviously above that!
WOMP!
How about apologizing for your rude behavior? I DESPISE people who refuse to take responsibilty for their mouths & their actions.
LOL @ her criticizing all journalists. You’re gonna need them before they need you sweetie.
i don’t blame solange for her reaction. i’m sure lots of “journalists” and newspeople have tested her with all these personal questions about Bee and Jay.
i don’t know how many of you have actually browsed TMZ’s website, but they rush up on celebs in the street, their paparazzi hurls insults and rude remarks at these celebs, and they relentlessly follow them around the streets and harass them during interviews.
how many of y’all want to go to interview after interview expecting to talk about YOU, just to hear that what the interviewer really wants is some personal dish on your family? most of y’all wouldn’t stand for that, i hope.
I just saw the original video she was referring to and she was bitchy; when you’re in showbiz you have to realise that you give up privacy in return for vast sums of money and answering petty questions goes with the ride too!
She needs to just shut up!! How you gonna tear up your career before it starts
Cosign with #8
I think she just dug herself deeper and now she comes swinging out at fox News and TMZ? Ooh.. do NOT bite the hand that feeds you, darling!
Mathew Knowles, come get your daughter. You do recall that Beyonce is not your only child, right?
She came off as EVEN more arrogant. I think journalists will have a ban against her.
How she know Jay-Z got a big fat check???? so… who’s really JOCKIN JAY-Z???
She gets a B*tch Please from me!!! How is it disrespectful/offensive to ask someone about your famous brother-in-law. What was disrespectful was how she acted. All she had to do was say I don’t have anything to say about that. I’m done with her. She sits there and criticizes journalists for asking her about her sister and Jay-Z, yet she talks about him in this video!!! She’s like yeah for the record sold it for some nice change. WTF??? Make up your mind. You can’t have it both ways. I Hope she falls back into the crypt with Beyonce’s old wigs and costumes.
……If they had asked her a question about Jay Z or mentioned him all she had to say was no comment. That doesn’t excuse her behavior.
Jay-Z and her dad should talk to her. There are better ways to handle interviews professionally. Such as when asked a question you do not want to answer simply tell the journalist you are only here to talk about your album.
Solange please go meet with Bee and get some media training seriously she could been like well I don’t like to discuss personal matters and moved on. This video does nothing for me. I was going to go to her concert at Walmart on Sat but I am not going to stand in the hot ass sun for her.
Oh and yes, she seemed nervous as all hell!
Even tho I like the fact she is totally different from her stuck up sister, I’m still not a fan of her or her music…
who care she was still rude for no reason!!!!!! and then she has the nerve to say i stand by my reaction like grow the fuck up you were wrong but no she had to talk stupid sooo sad!!!!!! well see how the album sell
Well, for anyone that is familiar with how satellite feeds work, I can understand how she mistook the introduction given to her. All you hear is what’s coming in the ear piece, and if someone tells you you’re live, you think that what’s being said is on television. She thought that her introduction included the references to Jay-Z’s club.
I don’t think she handled it in the best way, but I can understand being upset. You go to promote something that you’ve worked hard on, and the first thing a reporter mentions (you think) is a story about someone else, more famous, but connected to you. She does need to learn how to play the game a little better…but I like a lil sass.
I think she handled it perfectly. Journalism is definitely at an all time low and it seems like anything goes when it comes to them trying to make a “good” story. Media has so much power in this day and age and they can turn something untrue and irrelevant into something that everyone believes and is on the front page of every outlet. I think celebrities should definitely start taking a stand and not let themselves be taken advantage of and maybe the media, or paparazzi or whoever will fall back a bit. I wouldn’t count on it though.
One thing that does annoy me though is when an artist says buy my “record”. A record is only one song. They need to say buy my “album” which means media that includes all the records. Just a pet peeve of mine. Later!
To me Solange is great!!! She standing by what she said n sum of u people need 2 shut ur damn mouths cuz she aint do nuthin 2 u!!!!!! Solange’s CD is rely rely good, u should go get it!!!! Its like, why u gotta hate!!! Solange is very talented n doesnt need all dis sh*t from u haters!!!!! ill stand by her no matter what she does!!!!
luv…v
lol @ all of solange’s jay-z quotes (love me or leave me alone… jockin’ jay-z)
I agree wit #12
And Why would she tell everyone that Jay got a big check from his club, that was “REALLY” STUPID MOMENT RITE THERE.!
Why do I get this vibe/or something coming off her, like she can do w/e she wants to cause her sister did this and that. I may not like Beyonce as a singer , but I never ever seen her disrespect anyone, be rude, spoke down gave into gossip or anything of that nature, Yea I think she’s kind of fake/ and overrated but I can honestly say of how I feel that she’s a naturally nice person on the inside and out. (Not saying that Solange isn’t) . I respect her alot that she keeps her personal life private.
Lmao! ok but……. you have to know how to handle the situation in a professional matter. get it together!
Ummmmmmmmm…. Ya still rude and unmannerly. Damage control??? The audience heard Solange getting on like a spoiled brat. Heffa.
she needs to understand that Tmz, or fox news or whatever, they dont care about her, they are interviewing her to get info on Beyonce and Jay!
It amazes me how stupid and sensitive people are she wasn’t rude she said the words “Unprofessional” and “Please” she might have been mad but she kept it pretty professional, most of you guys would have gone off if someone was trying put your families business on blast. (I say this hoping you would at least stick up for your family, but judging by the comments you guys wouldn’t just stick up for them you’d probably insult whoever was asking the question)
It really leaves me baffled as to how you guys can say some of the rudest comments to these people who you have never met nor probably ever will meet, and don’t know from jump street. So maybe you all should look in the mirror to find the true meaning of RUDE.
P.S. I was being rude.
poor solange….she has always been the oddball of the family!!
Go back to making rated pg movies please!!
What got me is that she jumped stank w/ the anchor woman, not the producer. Why are you going to give that lady a hard time, she called Monica Johnson unprofessional not the producer.
She reminds me of a lot of these “high yellow” girls, they think they are all that any like to get snippy w/ darker sistah (like we are hating on them or something) I don’t think she would’ve jumped stank w/ anyone but that sistah on an issue like this.
I think Ms. Johnson handled it well, and all you have to say when you don’t want to answer a question (even though they didn’t ask her that question) is NO COMMENT! That’s the professional thing to do.
This is a loose canon.
I think it would be smart to keep her OUT of family meetings. This is karma.
SOL-GHETTO!!! YOU ALRIGHT WIT ME GURL…LET’S GO ROLL ONE UP!!
ComplexNDope, I agree. She needs to find some manners and apologize for that disgusting behavior she showed.
She has forgotten who the star is, and it ain’t her. Imagine what she will be like if people buy her album. That attitude will take you nowhere. Officially not a fan.
i don’t like solange at all
No need to explain yourself Solange. It`s understandable she wants her OWN identity. How many of us want to be constantly tied to our sibling`s hip..I dare to say not many….Two different individuals.
Much luv to Solange
#27. Rudeness isn’t soley portrayed in words, but also in demeanor. Her whole demeanor was STANK and rude.
There’s a way to duck & dodge questions you don’t want to answer. Someone needs to sign her up for that class STAT. While she was harping on the reporter calling her unprofessional, she didn’t realize she was in fact the unprofessional one. That reporter handled herself very well given the situation.
I like Solange & her music, but her attitude is disgusting. She needs a HUGE reality check & she needs to knock off the air of entitlement.
She needs to shut up! She looks like a damn fool in this video. If anything, Solange was the one being rude and unprofessional. It’s not Fox’s fault that she mistakingly, thought the Jay-Z 40/40 club bit was aired, when it wasn’t. She made herself look like an idiot. Grow up!
THAT’S RIGHT #34. I’m agree 100%
Wow! Maybe she needs to be more graceful and less verbal (like you know) because it appears that she is trying to capatilize on the brother n law thing to me.The jocking jay z quote was an inappropriate response for the way she came off. Lose the arrogance due to the association; you seem like you are waiting for those kinds of questions. Even Jay does not respond that way- Grow Up.
Sorry… now let me get this correct! She said that she wasn’t happy to comment on Jay-z’s situation about the club but then says that he sold it for some nice change. What was the problem with either saying that in the interview or not responding at all? Jay-z was on U.K tv and was asked about his marriage and he just changed the subject, when asked again he said he chooses not to discuss that. she needs some media training because its obvious that money doesn’t buy you manners. She was rude! and the “oh yeah” in a roundabout, passing i don’t really give a shit tone actually makes the situation worse. Shape up or move along Solange! you have limited time for your star to shine before another artist hits the spotlight so utalise your time properly.
I’m def. a Solange fan, but I must agree: She did not handle that in a classy or professional way at all.
She should have brushed it off and kept it moving. As a matter of fact, I think she should have done what many artists do when they’re pissed and don’t want to answer questions: Repeated the name of her album and “In stores now” the whole interview and called it a day!
To do a rebuttal and blame the media and all that nonsense just makes her look more like a fool. And really, based on seeing the “real” demeanor she exudes on that Fox clip, and comparing it to the “sweet” demeanor she’s trying to have during this rebuttal video, she’s looking a tad fake.
Still love ya Solange! Love the style and the fact that you’re jumping out of the box! Keep ya head up and leave the video rebuttals to PR and media professionals. They never work for those not trained on how to spin situations to their own agenda!
And another thing which I also notice when, I watch it The reporter didn’t even know what she talking about, when Solange said that. If you see she was like “What?”
“What happen?” Wells anyways! ” – And I do think that it was very unprofessional on Solange part because that journalist is a professional also and she’s trying to represent her self in positive light too! Snice Solange did just say “The PRODUCER, Make sure…………..club”. So Why critized the journalist women.
C’mon now! Am done for the day. Am done!
You know, for someone to whose about flop (again) she sure does have a diva attitude..
Solange is clearly immature and totally unprofessional. She needs to lose this “hood mentality” and start acting more like her sis…humble and kind..
But the video definitely does come across as “damage control” which only means that she (or her associates) have been reading these responses…hopefully she’ll get her shyt together..
I liked Solange until today. The attitude in the first video was inappropriate and the explanation in the second was even worse!! She just showed how ignorant she really is. I guess a person cannot disguise ignorance forever. She needs training!! And if she did not want to discuss Jay-Z, why tell us that he recieved a fat check. That’s telling the business, isn’t it?
Somewhere, Michelle and Kelly are laughing at all this mess! Karma is a bitch.
Solo – say the album is doing well NOT doing good! This would be the grammatically corrext way to say it. Stay in school. folks!
If “losange” had a problem with the reporter’s statement, then for the sake of black unity, she should have saved that sh!t until they were off the air.
She just lost one record sale.
Rude? I think she did a great job the way she handled the situation. If anyone said anything about my fam even off the air I would still check them on national T.V., but solange says they said she was live, so I feel that she had the upmost right to check them, even the intro of being beyonce little sister was off, they could have just introduced her as her. And I know if half of you who are commenting whould have went off too on national t.v, and the ones who wouldn’t I wouldn’t want to claim you as fam because you would be what I consider a coward who doesn’t respect your blood.
SOLANGE GET EM! The album is great!
Oh and P.S TMZ AND FOX NEWS NEED A REALITY CHECK FROM TIME TO TIME!
I was just beginning to tolerate her, she should just focus on her music, and keep her mouth closed.
Beyonce’s sister has a big head. She thinks this disco record done made her a star. Her entire family is terrible when it comes to public speaking and people skills. Girl BYE!
Was daddy Knowles standing on the sidelines taking off his belt? He must have thrown a fit when he saw her behavior during that interview.
Oh yeah, I don’t want to hear any crap a$$ excuses for being rude!!!
My issue (as some have raised) is that she publicly jumped the anchor woman. Yes, she should have maintained a professional demeanor during the interview, and voiced her dissent afterwards with the PRODUCER. I wonder would she have been so rude to Katie Couric, Bill O, or any random white anchor. Love us, but we black folk tend to give our own a hard time (tell em off or fight em in a minute), but if others wrong us, we tend to show them deference. Never a good look!
i love you solange!!!!! and ur album is FIRE!!!!!!
#49, lmfao… they are!!!
lol im with most of ya’ll about her attitude. her response wasn’t respectful nor “professional” (since she seems to know what thats about). notice how, throughout the interview, she still had a little attitude going on. “professional” would have been like, “oh ok i was wrong, my apologies” and go on w/ the interview instead of cocking her arm back and shaking her leg the entire time.
but yall know how silly these childish-behind girls act, thinkin theyre grown cus they got some kids haha. child bye!
she’s lucky to have some fans cus if people were like me, they wouldnt be able to take one more second of that nasally mess. theres no way she’d be gettin the attn she’s gettin now if it werent for being who she is so girl you better enjoy this.
TO #52 I THINK SHE WOULD HAVE SAID THE SAME THING TO THEM TOO. AND AGAIN IF SOMEONE ANCHOR WOULD HAVE SAID SOME BULL ABOUT YOUR FAMILY, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO THINK ABOUT CHECKING THE WRITERS AND PRODUCERS, YOU ARE GOING TO CHECK THE ANCHOR FIRST ,BECAUSE THE ONLY THING YOUR HEAD CAN PROCESS AT THIS MOMENT IS THAT TIHS CRAZY BITCH JUST LOST HER MIND SAYING THIS ABOUT MY FAM.
STFU Solange. Just shut up.
Can you say damage control? Seems like Solange wasn’t prepared for how quick things spread on the internet and the backlash that comes along with it. How you gonna come out the gate copping an attitude. That is no way to make firends. There are many potential artist who can tell you how they have been blackballed for their diva ways. Especially when they haven’t accomplished anything yet. I love Beyonce, but Solange I can take her or leave her. For now I will leave it.
