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

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.

@#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.

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.

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.

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.

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…..

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.

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.

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!

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!!!!)

“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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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..

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.
