Woop... I hate haters, does that make me a hater..?

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

travis did a radio interview in the UK with Radio1 and he was basically saying that Katy Perry was his baby. Thought that was well cute. Did you know that he is a professional tatooist, cuz you never see professional tattooists with just one tat do you.

Naomi is crazy but she’s got a heart and a rich bf. Marry the guy already.

LOVE LOVE LOVE TRAVIE… did I mention that? lol. Katy is pathetically untalented and will only be known for that craptastic song of hers. She can’t sing live and sound like somebody’s mom imitating Avril Lavigne on the studio versions. She’s a Lily Allen/Dita Von Teese spawn that will hopefully just go away. And yes, I’m incredibly jealous.

P.S. Travie used to have a HUGE crush on Lily Allen before Katy Perry, and now Katy and Lily don’t get along too well. A little FYI I’m sure nobody cares about…

PPS. Travie dresses like that because that’s his scene, and I LOVE IT. He’s always been like that, especially with sharing a label with Fall Out Boy and other such artists.

PPPS. Please someone include a pic of Gabe Saporta and Travie on this site, Gabe is Uruguayan but frontman of my fav group Cobra Starship. They’re pretty much besties. File this as well under “Nobody Cares”.

And I call him Travie because I can :) That is all.

Re: Denzels wife

She tried:

Over size/”grandpa” sweaters are in this season. As well as, the “prep/college boy” look.

Although, she might have wanted to break that yellow up and just wore some jeans or patterned/black pants that yellow on yellow washes it out

Travis looks horrible- too many tattoos, can you imagine what he’s gonna look like when he’s 70… urghhhh

Denzel and Pauletta representing but damn Denzel.. get her a stylist

Gary who?

+ there’s nothing wrong with interracial dating but what’s wrong with wanting to see a few more black couples and black families? but these photos are the way things are going these days… the only black couple is the oldest couple- all the latinos i know say they’d only date within their race and its all about latin pride and no one calls them out so why do people get upset when black people talk about sticking together?

Yeah people these days condemn ALL-BLACK couples, since interracial jungle fever is this season’s big fad :roll:

It’s cool if u wanna do that, but not just because it looks “fashionable”. How about showing BLACK LOVE as well?????? Willie Lynch need not destroy black men and black women till this day. Wake up people.

I’m so over Naomi crazy butt!
I don’t like women who act a fool! A lot of women can beat her on the catwalk. The establishment just want us to believe she is “it” and that’s simply not true.

We have to demand to see the other beauties on the cat walk. That’s exactly why Naomi is fuc’ed up in the head now. For too long they had her thinking “she is it, and no other can re-place her.

Can we see other race bi-racials. Spanish/Black, Asians/Black, you know. People should just love who loves them. Sisters should accept a man who can love them. It doesn’t have to be a “white dude” but anyone.

@ Sun

Sun I never said that dating within your race was “hood”. If you read my comment I said if people don’t want to date outside of their race that is fine but we should not condemn others who don’t allow race to be a hang up and are then attacked as being “weird.” This is 2008 and dating outside of your race is neither cultured or special so I don’t understand why people seem to shocked that Zoë or Travis date people they love no matter what skin tone they have. Being “Hood” was a euphemism for staying inside of your neighborhood (comfort zone) and not being open to having new experiences…doing what is SAFE.

Some people are modern with their thinking and how they approach dating (and life) and that is a good thing and even if others don’t like it. I think African Americans have experienced enough prejudice that they should be the last people not to accept how others may want to express how they feel about people regardless of race.

Chris

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

On Beyonce….Beyonce’s family line maybe on her mothers side is clearly a mix of different races…White being one of them. This is why Solange’s son Daniel has BLUE eyes. Racial mixing has been going on for years and you can’t always tell by skin tone what the racial makeup of people are. Beyonce’s roots are Creole so that is where that statement came from. Some of you people are so literal it’s sad but again it makes sense. Too many people don’t know things that go on in the world because they are ignorant (by choice) and that is what is behind these attacks on people who date outside of their race. You should look into your own background I’m sure you may have relatives who dated outside of their race.

94.

*Sigh*

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

@ 92

I don’t think there’s anything cultured about interracial dating. Another posters mentioned that Latinos don’t date outside their race because they’re trying to preserve their culture. And, personally, I agree with it. There are so many kids that are products of bi-racial mixing, at alarming rates. Soon there won’t even be a ‘African American’ race. It’s just a shame that more black people don’t want, nor care to preserve OUR culture/heritage.

@94

You have problems and they are based in ignorance. There are no pure races. and just because you are mixed does not mean you are no longer African American.
The African American experience is a diverse one and it’s not tied to visual aesthetics.
Race is a very complicated thing but the factors that define them are also wide. To say you don’t feel comfortable dating outside of your race is fine. That is your choice. But to cite some preservation of a race by only dating inside of it is limiting to you. I say date who you love. I do not support people dating others for status symbols or the myriad of other reasons you hear today.
But as I said with Beyonce….many people assume that because her parents both look like African Americans that they don’t have a more diverse lineage. If you look at Solange’s son and the father Daniel you may scratch your head as to where Daniel’s blue eyes come from. Most people in America are mixed we don’t have pure races in America. It’s just foolish because you can’t tell the racial makeup of people just by looking. And you argument you make is the same one made against many African Americans when they were lynched for even looking at white women….keeping the race “pure.”

99.

Chris

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

@ 94….also Culture and Heritage are not define by skin color.

Look at Barck Obama, Bob Marley and Malcolm X all of them were mixed.

I think you need to study harder in school and broaden your experience level.

I understand what you mean but you are not correct in your thought process.

@ number 22

SMH what’s the big deal with interracial couples? Darling interracial coupling has been around for centuries. People are just more accepting and open to it. I find that black women/people have more of a problem with me dating black men then white women/people. I am Latin (Puerto Rican & Italian) I find that I get more no this bytch didn’t looks from black women. I say this ladies of color/because I am one myself. Stop it. Get an education take care of home and love yourself. Stop worrying about what is going on in others homes and worry about your inability to keep your precious black men. Value yourself and take pride in your community and it would not be so much of an issue. I know this might sound harsh but it is the solid truth. My daughter is bi racial and the cutest thing around and I am not just saying this because she is my child, she is.

I grew up in the hood/all I ever knew were minorities whether they maybe black, latin, asian, mideastern descent. The lack of integrity people have for themselves is horrid. Ladies of all colors get it together. Love is blind and colorless hommies.

@ Chris

I never said that, by looking at Beyonce (or any other person of color) was any indication of “true blackness”. Perhaps you’re right about my thought process, because I an unable to translate to you what I mean.

And what does your comment about the lynching of black men, have to do w/ interracial dating? If I’m not mistaken that is more of a superiority issue than anything else. I’m not saying that blacks are above (or should be above) dating anything non-black.What I’m saying is that, they should try to preserve our culture. Besides we’re already a dying race, interracial dating is just adding to that.

dating outside of your race doesn’t mean date WHITE. there are a host of nationalities that we as black woman should consider: hispanic,greek,indian,asian,middle eastern,carribbean, i mean the list can go on. i date greek,black,and middle eastern which is my preference of male i choose to date.

Why should I give you a break? It is only a dress. I like it,you don’t. I think we understand that we all have opinions,don’t we? Anyway,this dress is made for slender ladies. Too much hips or butt and it would look hideous. On Katy,it falls like it should.

I think she’s attractive. She’s got very pretty eyes and wears very little make-up. I’m bias though. I prefer the natural look. I only wear make-up when I’m going to a major function.

“denzel’s wife is exxxtra BUSTED!!! why is he stil with her?”

Could it be love? I know looks means everything,but some people actually get to know you. Strange concept huh? *insert sarcasm*

Don’t get me wrong. I come to the boards to discuss what people wear and who is with who,but comments like this really get on my last nerve. Sorry,but Denzel more often than not doesn’t look all that good either. He walks around in sweat pants for goodness sakes!! Did you miss that? Atleast she doesn’t look like she’s wearing her house clothes. Black women just can’t win. We aren’t pretty enough,or rich enough or skinny enough. This appears to be a very good marriage. I congratulate Paula for sticking it out. Denzel wasn’t a walk in the park.

You can hate Naomi all you want(trust me,I understand),but you’ve got to give this woman credit where modelling is concerned. This chic is baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadddd(in a good way ofcourse). Even that eight head Tyra can admit that.

“Some people are modern with their thinking and how they approach dating (and life) and that is a good thing and even if others don’t like it.”

I’m not sure “modern” is the right word. “Preference” is what I’d call it. Using the word modern to describe interracial couples makes it seem like black on black love is somehow outdated and those who don’t date outside of their race are missing out or are backwards or something.*shrugs*

**************************************************************************************

In all fairness, you are generalizing. You are doing the same thing you accuse black women/people of doing. That is just your perception. You say they look at you funny, but you don’t know exactly why. You are just making assumptions. You are no different IMO.

With all due respect, we (I) don’t need a lecture from you. Contrary to what you read (some from these boards) and see on TV the majority of us are doing just that-taking care of our families. I hope I can speak for many black women when I say I could care less about you, your man and what goes on in your house. Frankly, we (black women/people) just don’t have enough time in the day to be concerned about you. Perhaps it is you that needs to “stop it”. That black man that is whispering in your ear telling you what you want to hear knows your insecurities and oftentimes men will play on that (black our white). You sound like many a black man that go outside their race. I can tell you’ve talked about it with your boyfriend/mate/spouse. You are starting to sound just like him. I read your post carefully and this line just didn’t rub me the right way,” Stop worrying about what is going on in others homes and worry about your inability to keep your precious black men.” It sounds like you need to take your own advice. I detect some bitterness which usually means trouble at home.

@94 *SIGH*

You are so right. It seems like someone is really pushing white men/ black women relationships. It could very well be that is the objecrtive, to eventually extinguish the African American race. Just notice on the black websites all the advertising for interracial dating sites. I have not noticed that on the white sites, however I don’t spent too much time there. But, I do believe there is an agenda promoting black/white relationships, just take notice. It was done to the Indian race, how many Indians do you see walking around here? …………. Yeah that’s what I thought.

@ #93- So basically because Juelz eye colour is blue he HAS to have white within him from Tina’s side??

For your information Juelz’s father is mixed race NOT Solange so if anything his “whiteness” comes from his dad’s side of the family. Plus your grandparents or parents don’t need to have white in them for you to have a different eye colour, other than brown.

I am not disputing that we as black people are all mixed with other races down the line, but Beyonce and Solange’s parents are both BLACK. Creole doesn’t equal white. I have yet to hear Beyonce refer to herself as mixed or white…

I agree with what Chris said about the African American experience being based on more than visual aesthetics, meaning a half black individual and you are equally as important and add the same amount of value to our rich and diverse culture.

If anything African Americans are a by-product of inter-racial mixing. Beyonce is not unique in that her lineage is not pure African. I promise that if I were to take the bloodwork of ANY African American individual who can be traced back to slavery, their blood can also be traced back to European and/or the genetics of the indigenous peoples of America. We are a unique blend, with African heritage at the forefront of it all, but don’t fool yourself into thinking we are some pure all mighty race. That doesn’t exist in America, for anyone.

@FALL BACK

You are missing the POINT. Beyonce and her mother are MIXED they are not pure African Americans you can see that because of their features. You may be mixed. Most African Americans ARE MIXED. You don’t have to refer to it.

People are so DUMB!
African Americans are a mixed race as a result of SLAVERY!

@ 139- I am aware that we as black people are all mixed, in fact every race is no- one pure race, but generally speaking within society she is classed as a black woman and that is what she is.

Lauryn Hill is a black woman and is classed as such but if we do trace it back OF COURSE she is mixed, but I’m speaking generally. She and all black people are deemed as black in society. Who calls a black person mixed when they are saying their race? For example people like Usher, Solange, Beyonce, Joy Bryant etc, I sure call them black.
