    Solange needs a public speaking class or a coach which ever one she would like. Ummmmm every other sentence is not a good look. Let get it together!!!!

  2. Korrenzo

    I believe she was okay in her actions, but in this industry and with the connections she has, Solange has to expect reporters to ask her about Jay-Z and Beyonce. It’s just a part of the life and the industry. As a journalist, she’s not only an artist, but a lead for info on two of the industry’s biggest and most powerful acts. It’s part of the territory. Get over it SOLANGE, DAMN!!!!

  3. sanaa J

    is this what she calls damage control??????????? much to learn young jedi lmao she looks like she wants to cry about her career flashing before her eyes !! lol u need to be the hottest chick in the game to wild out like that and get a pass. ooops sorry rudeness that title belongs to your sister !!!! LOL

  4. SORRY YOU LOSERS

    You losers need to sit down and get a life. This interview is not hurting sales at all little hunnies. You weren’t there so don’t talk shit you don’t know. The situation could’ve been handled better, but there will be no subjection to anyone saying disrespectful things (which was not heard by anyone btw). And in case y’all dumbasses don’t know…Solange is a songwriter….as long as she can write, she has a career. So BACK OFF @ people talking about the end of career STFU. You lazy bitches need to get from in front of the computer and do something with your lives.

    Thank You.
    Fuck You, Sincerely

    I would think that someone who is making it in this industry should have a little bit of humility. When you are famous, you can also lose some of your privacy, especially when your whole family is famous. She was reaaly arrogant.

    I really liked Solange when she first came, but now not so much.

  6. SORRY YOU LOSERS

    Why is this such a big deal? I remember people were saying the same thing about Keyshia not too long ago when she was kinda rude to reporters…I don’t stop people from like artists so GET OVER YOUR DAMN SELVES!!!! I supported Keyshia Cole from day 1 when she was “rude” to the media “ghetto” and all…When will you understand, fans are the drive behing every artist?? This should not be blown out of proportion like it is now. It’s not like the lady got cussed out. Now if Solange went off on the lady and dropped a few F-bombs, then y’all can react like this. Since that is not the case….GET A LIFE!!!

  7. the_one

    I’m so over this chick posting when she eats sleeps or puts out a wack blog doesnt make me want to change my opinion of her, who gives a shit.

    OBAMA 08 that is all we need to talk about.

  8. iamwhatiam

    I seriously think that this whole I’m real and Ima speak my mind attitude is just all for publicity. I really got mad at her when she had released a quote about people criticizing her song chronic nightcap (whatever it’s called) about her f*cking around, smoking that weed, and passing out because she got drunk. She had a nerve to say “I’m Grown” and have done grown things and said more things in that quote that made her sound just easily taken advanatage of by all her negative peers (friends). Bitch please. So because you were 18,19,20,21,22 that’s what you were supposed to do. Teenagers 14-17 do that sh*t already and they aint grown. I think she is a bad role model as a young mother and just a bad example as a woman. She seems very ignorant and spoiled. I don’t know where mama and papa knowles went with her. She’s not totally out of control, but she is spoiled and negative. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with defending your family, but people are gonna talk and the reason why they keep on pushing her buttons is because they know it gets to her. She’s so dumb enough to feed into that sh*t. She needs to take a lesson from her sister.

  9. Chadbertwick

    This girl is SOO RUDE. I loved her up until last week. I saw her at the J&R Music Festival and she was disrespectful to the soundcrew stating and I quote, “Sound is garbage!” in the middle of her set. I was left thinking, that her performance was garbage. This interview puts the icing on the cake. I will no longer support her. I love the music, and the vision but you don’t gotta act like a you-know-what to achieve that. Who does she think she is?

    LOVE HER FOR STANDING UP FOR HER FAMILY…. YALL KNOW FOX IS ALWAYS TRYING TO MAKE “US” LOOK BAD IN SOME FORM OR FASHION..
    SO PROPS TO YOU SOLANGE

  11. facefacts

    She is confused. I don’t think she realizes that she would not be recognized at all if she wasn’t beyonce’s sister in the first place. The more things change the more they stay the same. She talking about how much she’s not beyonce as much as other people. She is trying soooo hard to be different that in actuality she just like everybody else. I don’t see her running from cameras!!!! And with that mouth how is anyone supposed to want to listen her music. She talks to people like she’s a gangster making smooth R&B. soooo crazy. Saying F the industry but working with the same industry that made her…. Makes no sense. She trying to be the direct opposite of beyonce..lol i guess?

  12. facefacts

    she needs to get off the gas cuz she is not talented enough for people to put up with her crap..or pretty enough to have people letting her slide. You ain’t Naomi. Rhi Beyonce Keisha or ashanti…cuz all these woman made it before they started doing crazy mess!!!

  13. jes123

    #47 i agree with u………….folks please stay in school…omg i could barely understand her with the frequent use of “um” “ah”….i almost slapped her with a dictionary………..lol

  14. facefacts

    Maybe she thinks she is the first person to have a very famous sibling…she should turn to janet cuz beyonce can’t touch janet and janet cant touch michael or the jackson five and their is still plenty of room for everyone at the top without being nasty….papa knowles prolly expected this…

  15. Ashley in CALI

    Womp.Womp.WOMP. sit down solange, you look like a nervous little girl still.

  16. Ashley in CALI

    I’ll probably get slapped for this one but ah well… The women in Houston are breathtaking in looks, you can’t take that away from them, but the grammar when they open their mouths to speak is simply shameful. it’s ‘WELL’ not ‘GOOD’ solange.. i’m doing ‘WELL’…

  17. Oct. Watson

    lol its funny how quickly people are to down ol girl because she had a “hood” moment. Just a week ago people was giving her props about her album and how different she is. Everybody has their moments(Mary J. Blige, keyshia cole, etc.) of having an attitude before blowing all the way up. Don’t worry Solo I’m still going to cop the album.

  18. fan

    When Rihanna first came out she was always asked questions about Jayz and she was never rude or disrepectful when asked!

  19. me

    She has to look at it from a standpoint of who she is. The reality is that she is not her sister or Jay-z, and to an extent the interviewers are doing HER a favor. She should be confident, but she should not act like everybody is anxious for the next Solange cd or interview! If you have be phony and kindly say no comment to a journalist, then that’s what you do if you want to at least sell 100,000 copies!

  20. beyonceaintallthat

    Who is this no talent ass, movie straight to DVD ass, don’t know how to speak ass, rude ass, no talent ass,,,, who is she fooling. she know she wrong, thats why she put this crappy video up. i wasn’t gonna buy her crapp ish anyway.

    I don’t care for beyonce much, but she is a graceful person she always smile when interviewing and whatever she doesn’t feel like answering she smile and say no comment. Does solo not have a speech therapist to tell her these things.?

  21. MINDYOURBIZNESS

    Solange….Is that you? I See you. Welcome to Concreteloop!!!

  22. SALI

    @Sorry You Losers

    You mean as long as she can write for Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle. Because outside of them, ain’t nobody else hiring her. Real writers write for other people, not just their family.

  23. SALI

    Just setting the record straight.

  24. Sassy

    Hey, Solange You is a rude ignorant Bitch and if u talked to me like that I would whup ur ass!!! U think u so cute. Bitch grow up.

  25. Bittersweets

    We have to accept that Solange is very young and still very much “hood” despite the money.At least I learned that JZ is her brother in law.. She displayed that” attitude ” that the republicans are desperately trying to pin on the educated and sophisticated Michelle Obama. However with time she will make more positive changes.

  26. lov4life

    The funniest part about the whole thing is that by “speaking her mind” to the anchor, Solange actually diverted the attention away from herself which is exactly what she didn’t want to happen. Gotta learn how to pick and choose your battles and when to fight them.

  27. HALCYONC

    “WHATEVER! All yall up here fakin like u wouldn’t have been pissed n reacted the same way if not worse…so what she’s a superstar’s sister and somewhat of a celeb she has every right to say what she feels…u ppl act like these folks don’t have feelings n get tired of hearing the same crap…Solange tell em how u REALLY FEEL!
    n I like how she incorporated how he sold the club for a huge chunk of change n the quote…”LOVE ME or LEAVE ME ALONE!””

    Solange knows the deal. If she doesn’t want a career in music then decline doing the interviews and quietly raise your son in peace. The problem is, she wants her cake and eat it too. I see nothing for her to over react the way she did. Her blood is too close to her skin. She is an adult now. She needs to carry herself as such. She is in a business that is very flaky. She lost herself a ton of potential sales because of her hasty attitude.

  28. HALCYONC

    “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.”

    It isn’t “what” she said,but “how” she said it. This girl has a major attitude. She is in the business where people are going to like you one day and hate you the next. You don’t need to give them a reason. Her body language stunk as well.

  29. onlydatruth

    PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID SOMETIMES! I need someone to justify how the hell she was rude in that interview, it’s not like she offended someone or I dont know, I mean, she said ‘the introduction was not professional and please dont tie me with my brother in law and my family’ what the fuck is rude about that? I mean, she even mentionned she was not talking to the lady but the producer who wanted to get infos about Jay-z’s club, I mean, she was supposed to be there for her album promo and I could definitely understand the fact that she felt offended and disrespected, it was like they were just using her to get their infos and that is just not right.
    Now I really dont know why ppl are making such a big deal about it.
    For me she handled it very well, it was just an accident that she thought it was her introduction, so if because of that you wont buy her album or wont support her anymore, thats your fuckin problem cause youre the loser on that case. PERIOD.

  30. HALCYONC

    “LOVE HER SHE SET IT OFF LIKE ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN TAUGHT TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELF WOULD HAVE. SHE IS A MOTHER AND MOST OF YA’LL KNOW YOUR MOMS DON’T PLAY THAT SHIT!”

    This would be alright,but she stood for nothing because it was a non issue.

  31. onlydatruth

    Oh and I forgot, so now, ppl want her to sit this way or that way in her chair, give a smile and what again? That is consdered to be rude too? SMH She is real not fake, she is supposed to act like Solange, love her or leave her alone. Its amazin how ppl want celebs to act like they want to and of course if she was not a Knowles, ppl wouldnt hate her this way, poor girl, I now understand why she said in her album ‘I wouldnt have a famous family’ SMH

  32. alu

    she could have easily ignored the comment. it’s would have made her more classy but in the confusion she went off. the best part is no one shouldn’t be asking her anything about anyone besides her and her music. unfortunately she did look silly especially when they said on air to counter her comment that it was asked off air. did anyone see that anchorwoman look around like “who is she talking to?” good thing solange wasn’t there because she look like she was ready to brawl with how she was talking to her.

  33. ZERO

    damage control… whatever. The CD is BOMB but her attitude sucks. She is trying to clean things up. Arrogant ass

  34. FallBackHaters

    @#8- Yeah I agree homegirl could have apologised once she realised she got it wrong, after all it wasn’t the woman who did anything wrong. It was the producer behind the scenes.

  35. NOD YA HEAD

    I am over the whole situation. I think the media along with Solange gotta a lot of growing up to do. Anyone will do anything for a story these days. Solange got coverage about her album but in a bad way.

    I guess this story is no different than when the media wanted to keep hopping about the Janet Jackson breast baring incident and while she was trying to promote Why I Got Married? Solange had needed Tyler Perry there to come to her defense. LMAO.

  36. LB

    It’s good that she is trying to appear to be nicer.

    Still, it doesn’t erase the fact that she was the “unprofessional” one in the actual interview.

    And I also don’t appreciate her comment about journalism being at an all time low. She needs to realize that TMZ is a celebrity gossip site, not a credible news source—which is what journalism actually is.

    So, yes, she still has much to learn, but you can tell that this video was a damage control effort.

  37. I See Through All The Glitz and Glam

    I think the news media did tick her off and we knew what they said even when the video was first released online. The problem was her response. Everything she said on camera to be this so called “outspoken, real” girl came off ass rude and ignorant. She could have released a personalized statement to the media or had her reps contact them. What she did was uncalled for and the reason why she released this lil blog of hers was to save face of the a$$ she made herself out to be. Because you are rude doesn’t make you real it just makes you simply rude. When other stars smile and ignore, it doesn’t make them fake, it makes them cordial. Remember it is the media that helps market you and sad to say if it weren’t for your sis and bro in law you wouldn’t have even landed a spot on the news to begin with. I hope she learned her lesson from this one. Remember the media has been around for years, they don’t really need you, you need them.

  38. Raspberry

    YOU STILL CAME OFF AS A BITCH AND WE SAW WHAT HAPPEN AND HEARD!

    WHY WHEN YOUR EXPLAINING YOURSELF YOU KEEP LOOKIN TO THE LEFT , THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE DO WHO ARE NOT TELL THE TRUTH!

    TALKING BOUT “BOTTOM LINE IS STOP JOCING JAY-Z” but she stay using his qoutes from his songs. AND BOO YOU NOT HOOD now i beleive you have ADD

  39. Chokogal

    I’ll be honest…iii reeeally don’t give a damn. I didn’t like her at first, she grew on me and now I like her a little bit.
    The situation with FOX still doesn’t effect any way that I feel. I did notice how her whole mood changed. Yea, she could’ve kept her posture right and acted more enthused about talking about her album. Yea, she could’ve waited and said something afterwards, but atleast she didn’t really go off like (with the sheneneh voice) “Nuh uh,wait holle up ok. Hole up, no you didn’t. First of all beeeiiitch”…. I guess I can give her a well she tried to maintain and she tried to defend herself but will learn to do better in the future vote.
    As for the response vid. It didn’t effect me either. Although I didn’t think she needed to mention Jay’s check, but whatevs. She may just have a chip on her shoulder. I really don’t think that she’s trying really hard to be the “hood sistah from the Knowles family” like everyone is saying. Maybe that’s who she is. Hey, I like a “I don’t give a f**k type of artist every now and again. As long as they stay loyal and respectful to their fans.
    Still like the music, still THINKING about buying the album. I’m not too sensitive on this sub…..

  40. fiffj1234

    Why do you agree to do interviews? You know the reporters are going to go after any morsel they can. That’s their job to get the juicy gossip. Just prepare yourself, for anything. Like Beyonce did, whenever they asked her about Jay Z, it was like not talking about my personal life. She made it a point to let them know that I will nicely tell you to mind your business and keep it rolling, not missing a beat. They still try her with the niceness and sweetness and she will be firm and let them know. Solange, just say that they got the best of you that time but be prepared to say, not talking about anything or anyone else but my album and just ignore them each time!!
    Everybody has a bad day including all of us and Solange deserves a second chance, she is still talented in both singing and writing.

  41. pms

    Lawd Have Mercy, this lil homely raggedy horse head beagle nose, droopy eyed skank is a mess. She sucks eggs. The only thing Byaki can get credit for is keeping her mouth shut because when she talks in that deep manly southern drawl she sounds dumb as molasses. They’re purely ignorant squandering fame and as much as they talk about money they can’t be christians because the money makes them they don’t make the money. BYaki married to CamelToe is not news. Britney Spears is news 24/7 This is probably a Carter-Knowles Attenting Seeking Production.

  42. TELLIN IT

    HA! I just listened to her explanation…Now who wouldn’t have assumed that some peripheral person shouting “ask her about the club closing” would have been something BEHIND THE SCENES?!! Huh? What news program would RUIN THEIR LIVE BROADCASTING by blurting that out? She’s soooooooooooo stupid! REALLY!

  43. Danity

    Solange needs to learn to be more humble and take responsibility for her actions. Even after she was corrected (in the first interview) she should of took it upon herself to clear it up more PROFESSIONALLY (since that seems to be what she expects out of an interview) and she continued to finish the interview very immaturely and in a rude and arrogant manner. When in the lime light, misunderstandings like this will happen ALL THE TIME.–> If this is how she plans on handeling it everytime, she has another thing coming for her. (Get it together Solange) if she expects to make a name out there for herself, she’s definitely going to need a reality check.(Cause trust me, her attitude is already getting TIRED!!!!)

  44. bebe

    “Solangé” as they spell it, reminds me of the hater bitch who sat in the back of the class spreading rumors about everyone. She is so immature, her idea of an adult is backwards. Ya don’t come at peoples necks on national television and you always get the story right before addressing something!!! if I could get close enough to her to smack the remi out of her head, I would.

  45. ~k8~

    Good for her! MediaFAKEout and b0$$ip were tryin to make it seem like she was overreacting but i’m proud of solange and i wud have done the same. Its her time to shine and they’re tryin to squeezed jay’s biz in. GO SOLANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m proud of u. YOUNG MOTHERS REPRESENT. WE ARE NOT DUMB LIKE PPL THINK!

  46. SALI

    Solange, the only ones you have wrap around your finger is Beyonce, Tina, and Matthew. No one else cares. You will only get away with this at family functions. And by the way, if you were so tough why did you need Beyonce to go with you to your next interview. Make up your mind are you TOUGH or are you SPOILED. I really don’t care if your spoiled, just know that it’s only your family who’s going to let you get away with that. This is NOT your fault, it’s your family’s for not telling you the truth. The truth that yoour family don’t tell you, the world will be quick to let you know.

    P.S. And please make sure your a star first before you start pulling your diva moves.

  47. kayshia

    #2 is ridiculous ” she’s young” well actually she’s not that young she like 22. i’m younger (18) and wouldn’t be so arrogant

  48. *KeNzY*

    i like that song “Cosmic Journey”, i downloaded it and I just love it…..
    back to her attittude…ummm.. i don’t know…even though she has her own style and like art like i do(lol), she comes off as stank sometimes…I don’t know if i can rock with that….But Cosmic Journey is the ish…..

  49. CHEMENGGIRL

    If it weren’t for Solanges’s FAMILY MEMBERS (Matthew, Beyonce, & JayZ)..she would definitely not be be on TV actin a DAMN NUT..!!..she feels entitled, like nobody can tell her nothing because of her FAMILY’S SUCCESS…No person in their right mind who is trying to get their career started would risk being a bitch on NATIONAL TV..unless they had money anyway.

  50. Hot Gal

    Solange dissed fox in her explanation video but she totally made herself look more ignorant when she said something about Fox and the type of news they carry

    If Fox is all bad then why was she on there in the first place?
    SMH

  51. i think solo still needs to go and get her high school diploma lolol … she knew that piece of shit would not sell ,,so she got fame of the wrong kind….ignorance

  52. Ra-Ra

    Solange is a crackhead, her sister a weirdo, and both sound like they have a 6th grade education. Solange needs to go sit somewhere with her dumb ass music and ridiculous hair weave.

  53. disappointed

    Lol. I WANNA TELL EVERYONE WHATS SOLANGE’S PROB RIGHT NOW. SOLANGE WANTS TO PARADE AROUND THE WORLD TELLING EVERYBODY “F YOU, F YOU, F YOU, F YOU, AND WHEN SOMEONE ACTUALLY RESPONDS AND SAYS YA KNOW WHAT SOLANGE…. F YOU TOOOOOO, SHE GETS PISSED AND THROWS TANTRUMS. the way i feel towards solange actually hasn’t much to do with the way she handles this interview but her persona since she came out again. I was following her music and other achievements from solo star days and I was sooooo disappointed to see her come bk out like this. I like the fact that she is bold but she is very bitter and rude. The worst part is that she constantly feels the need to prove that she is a good mom yet she has a horrible, potty mouth. I hope she doesn’t have the nerve to punish her son when she hears these expressions from his mouth cuz she sets no example. Well, I AM DISAPPOINTED!!! Also, Beyonce clearly cares alot about her and solange always shoves the girl to the side – its clear that she is jealous of her especially when her father sd in an interview that she broke all of beyonce trophies and didnt care. She’s clearly as the guy from fox sd, “A BRAT!!” Now on her interviewing… I’m not suprised. Expect worse from her guys, this is nothing. Didn’t ya hear the interview when she sd she tells her dad what she wants and says “Go make my money?” Disappointing. The funny part is she actually made great music this time around but the majority r not gonna buy cuz of her attitude alone. Sad story. Next please..

  54. JL

    Lol @ these responses….she wasnt classy @ all and i can well understand her irritation, but like u guys said, she could’ve handled it much better. A simple change of the subject back to her album or “no comment” would’ve worked wonders. But whatever, i was never that impressed w/her anyway. And to all defending her, ur probably just as ghetto and rude as she is.
