Perry and Travis look cool together.

Gym Class is kinda lame with the new VD I don’t know what happened but Travis is trying to get clean. I think Katy had a lot to do with Travis getting CLEAN.

The other couples are whatever. More D List people.

Zoe….what does she do??? I never see her movies and when I do see them she is boring as I don’t know what.

The other people….no comment…..lol

Oh Denzel and his wife are solid. Denzel is very cool and down to earth…..We need more of people like him in Hollywierd.

With the exception of Denzel & Pauletta (WTF is she wearing?) the rest are interracial couples. Hmmm…interesting.

“EWW NO!! That is one of the ugliest pices of sh*t I’ve seen. I definitely don’t want to see inside your closet.

To each his own. I like this look. I love summer dresses. I wouldn’t want you in my closet. It sounds like it may be too eclectic for you anyway.

What is so “weird” about people of different races dating????

You people need to get out of the “HOOD” more. I mean seriously. There is so much more to life than staying in what you seem comfortable with (and that goes for much more than just dating). I’m not saying you have to date outside of your race if you don’t want to but don’t condemn others for not using race as an excuse for not seeing what other experiences there are out there.

Halle Berry, Barrack Obama, Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Tiger Woods and many of the other people who you STAN over are all products of racial mixing. In fact there are no pure races in America so people need to get over calling inter-racial couples “weird” and attacking people who fall outside of your comfort zone. It’s amazing how ignorant some people are. It’s funny where these type of comments come from. People attack Gov Palin for not getting out and seeing more of the world…we can say the same for many people on Concrete Loop.

Sometimes love is where you find it. And all of these people seem happy with their choices.

Well being a goog (Married) Brother, I got to say that Black man aren’t acting right, and the sisters are fed up. I don’t harbor any hate for someone trying to find love. Plus with a small majority of black men either being too weak for a black woman, gay, or in jail, what do you expect the sisters to do?

27.

Stop Tha Ignorance

Tuesday, September 30, 2008 /

@ 20. No, it aint a sin. As long as it’s REAL love and not out of self hatred. Read 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 on love, and the answer will reveal it’s self….. and note after you read it it DOES NOT say P.S. One luv brothas and Sistahs. @ #9, you the only one up in here that sounds like they need Jesus. Don’t give advice you don’t take yourself.

So let me get this straight Chris–dating within your race is indicative of being “hood” while dating interracially is a sign of being cultured? Hmmm. Your thinking scares me. You don’t reason too well, my friend. Just know this, as with any form of dating, interracial dating can involve a lot of racial, superficial, politics. Perhaps even more.

@# 35 MRS. JONES….if I wanted to address you I would call you out by name it’s not HARD.

I was not speaking about you in particular. I was making a general statement.

But you think Travis dresses weird??? Or Katy Perry?

I love women like Zoë Kravitz who have real style and don’t look like some Beyonce knock off but that’s just me.

LOL

@39..CHRIS

STFU and STFD!! All you do is talk so much sh*t about every chick in the game, mainly Beyonce and Rihanna, besides Ciara. I was in the Ciara post and you were calling everyone haters becuase we thought she looked like a straight dude (when she clearly does), but it is AYE OKAY for you to talk negatively about other artists.

I’m not shooting directly at this comment but I’m just saying you in general. You act like God placed you on this Earth to tell us who has style and was doesn’t have style. Who has talent and doesn’t have talent (which you say Beyonce does not). Like, who the fuck do you think you are? Just because everyone doesn’t dress like there was a power outtage in their home (The People You Praise) doesn’t mean they’re Beyonce knock offs, as you say. Everyone has their own style and FYI it doesn’t mean they’re trying to be Beyonce. Even if they tried they will never be Miss Bey.

Sistahs crossin ova, nothing wrong with that, luv me some fine azz white men, luv em even mo when their pockets r phat(lol). Naomi what ya waiting 4 gurl? betta start on getting preggo, 4 real. She have money but that fine azz russian man have dough, making me hot just looking at him. I don’t know, I always had a thang 4 men of other nationalitie than american men. American men just don’t turn me on(some black ones anyway). Denzel looking a little on the heavy side and his wife looking tired and old, what’s up wit dat?

@ #25, both of beyonces parents are BLACK! Therefore NOT making her bi-racial. But hey with that long blonde WIG shes always rocking. Yoou’d think she was.

Anyway, Zoe and her man looks good. And so does Naomi and hers. The Washingtons are also looking good. The rest is just blah…

Katy’s dress, though probably Dior…yeah, I’m sure it’s Dior, is not cute but her style is pretty gross anyway… She’s short on taste…it’s almost as bad as Cyndi Lauper and Madonna at her worst. But Madonna is her idol, I think.
Pauletta is so classy…she just oozes class and her skin is gorgeous.
Gary’s girlfriends is a nice healthy size and I love her Gucci boots (I think they’re Gucci)
Zoe’s boyfriend is so so so so so so so so so NOT ATTRACTIVE. I can’t even explain how NOT ATTRACTIVE.
Naomi is gorgeous, man…

@ Chris

I would love to hear a response to my original question/comment so I’ll post it again.

So let me get this straight Chris–dating within your race is indicative of being “hood” while dating interracially is a sign of being cultured? Hmmm. Your thinking scares me. You don’t reason too well, my friend. Just know this, as with any form of dating, interracial dating can involve a lot of racial and superficial politics. Perhaps even more.

You people…

Travis is just as relevant on this site as Alicia Keys, Zoe Kravitz (both her parents are half white), Halle Berry, etc…

He’s half black, which by precedent makes his photo on this post relevant.

73.

olin cafe

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

SunflowerKisses:

As a black woman who appreciates the black man, I don’t think Chris meant what you wrote. You sort of misconstrued his words.

No where did he say that dating within or outside of your race was indicative of your level of hoodness, or level or lack there of being cultured.

He only stated that thinking negatively or disdainfully of those who can appreciate and allow themselves to fall in love with those of their own cultural background AND/OR those of others makes you…ignorant.

Just saying…

74.

LOGIC

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

KATE AND TRAVIS ARE CUTE FOR EACH OTHER. BUT TRAVIS LOOKS LIKE A DAMN FOOL, THOSE TATS, EARRINGS, THE WAY HE IS WEARIN HIS CLOTHES. I MEAN YOU CAN BE AN ENTERTAINER BUT HE REALLY LOOKS LIKE A FOOL TO ME.

DENZEL AND PAULETTA - LOVE THEM….HATE THAT DRESS …EWW

ZOE AND NAOMI - YALL GOT SOMETHING NEW AND NO ONE CAN BE MAD!

78.

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.

79.

Reason

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

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?

82.

Greatestloveofall

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

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.

83.

Angie.who

Wednesday, October 1, 2008 /

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.

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.

@ 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.”

@ 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.

@ 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.

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.

“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.

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.

@ 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.
