I-cosign # 59 you all need to stop all this hate. this girl is a stomp down performer and on her own time she can do what she wants I like the fact she not all Hollywood and phony.
Yall always got someoole negative shit to say. it is obvious she does not care what you say she still doing her thang, while you hating.
Everyone looks nice and so does Fantasia.
Dag…Tay got the whole sleeve action going on. I am so going to get my first and only tatt with her.
~1505
@#37 That’s why she has tow state of the art recording studios and wants to atrtend college so she can continue to learn more about owning herself and she can tell the corporate world to kiss her ass who are bigots and racists anyway like you.
That girl and her family are building their own impire while you are all hating.
Also go find you some needy children to bless she has.
They all look great and Fantasia can perform for me anytime. I don;t always seem them so she must cover them up when appropriate, seems she just chilling here and she wants you to see them LOL and you all are biting the bait.
I got some so hate me too!!!
@ 65 Not a Fanny Stan…
Sounds like you are. Your whole statement was a total contradiction to your name… I am not a “bigot” or “racist” FYI. I am a proud BLACK woman. Thanks for asking, even if it was indirectly.
Speaking of needy, somebody needs to bless her with some back tax money to save that house while she is blessing everybody else.
I’m just saying.
Rihanna looks great. Fantasia looks bad the tattoos the hair she looks bad.
I COULD BE WRONG BUT DOES FANTASIA’S HAND SAY RODNEY? HER BABY’S DADDYS’S NAME?
WHERE’S YOUNG DRO????
Rhianna: Boring as hell now, we get it, she has style. YIPPEE! No. She’s falling off.
Fantasia: She just looks stank.
Solange: Ew. She’s trying too hard to be something different, and it is coming off way wrong.
Oh Nikka Costa, I remember her from the late 90′s. Love the track “Like A Feather”.
Eh, I don’t think spandex look good on anyone let alone a thick woman such as Fantasia. Here’s an advice for you, “keep away from them girl!”
Taboo is expecting a baby this Summer so congrats to him and his family.
FANTASIA IS A HOODRAT….SHE NEEDS TO BUY HER SOME CLASS, INSTEAD OF TATOOS/ …..SHE IS SO GHETTO!…YUUUCCCKKKK!
Everyone looks great but its a Black Eye Peas (BEP) event so why did CL make the main pic the one with Rihanna in the middle instead of the one with Fergie in the middle. I don’t know, just thought that was weird.
SOLO IS DOPE. “TONY DON’T CALL NO MO’ ”
RIHANNA AINT CUTE. ESPECIALLY THAT SHIRT.
Rihanna looks cute.
This is the best that I have ever seen Solange look,she is really growing into her looks and I did`nt know that her legs were soooooooooooo! long Rhianna`s shape made her outfit pop.Keep your head up Fantasia and handle your business! Peace and props to Will,for acting his age and throwing a concert for a good cause and not acting a fool and always popping bottles like some artists do!
Went to Solange concert at the Vipor Room and she was smaller then me IN HEELS. I’m 5’5″. So Janelle must be really short. My friend asked if I noticed Janelle standing next to us at the bar -I didn’t, now I know why! BTW Solange put on a great show!
1. Why does Solange look so tall… LOL… She is taller then the dude in the background… lol…. She looks good though.
2. Rhiana’s face looks dry… Cute but dry… Sun does her skin well.
3. Alycia needs some fried chicken and to throw away those tights. If you weigh 3 pounds, tights are not a good look. Put on a skirt or a dress….
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! BEP makin’ a comeback!!!!! Look for that new album
Aiight Fantasia I see you… Got the body all toned up dropped some pounds, lookin’ good!!!
hek yeah fantasia!! show off your tats thats what I’m talking about!
rihanna got people in here hating hard, jealousy is not a good look.
#80, GIRL PLEASE. AINT NOBODY JEALOUS OF THAT LONG TORSO HAVING, 5 HEAD LOOKING, ROCKER HAIR-DO WEARING, DEMON SHIRT HAVING, “I WANT TO BE A WHITE ROCKSTAR” THINKING, STANK PUSSY SMELLING, FISHNET STOCKINGS EVERY CONCERT WEARING, SKIN LIGHTENING DOING, BROAD NAMED RIHANNA. WHAT DOES SHE HAVE FOR ME TO BE JEALOUS OF? OH LET’S SEE..
FAME? — I DON’T WANT THAT.
MONEY? — I ALREADY HAVE A STABLE AMOUNT.
TALENT? — WAIT, WHAT TALENT?
CLOTHES? — WELL, I’M NOT NAKED. AND I STAY FRESH.
AN ILLITERATE SOUNDING ACCENT? — WTF?
C’MON BABY GIRL, NOBODY WANTS TO BE RIHANNA. AND IF THEY DO, THEN UMM..THEY MUST BE 10 YRS OLD AND YOUNGER. BYE GIRL, FLY GIRL.
ONLY RIHANNA + BEYONCE FANS CLAIM PEOPLE TO BE JEALOUS OF THEM. JUST STOP, NOT EVERYBODY WANTS TO LIVE THEIR LIFE IN A FISHBOWL. “NOW PUT YA’ HANDS UP”!..LOL
Rhianna really needs to STOP NOW! She looks ridiculous with the skull & bones crap. When Rhianna first came on the scene she was doing a reggae & pop thing.
Then she went straight pop! Now she is dressing like, and acting like a fake rock star!
I use to like this girl, but she is just straight up phony!
I would like a reporter to ask this chick which hard rock album is her favorite, and which hard rock grop has she listened to, or whose concerts she has attended in the past?! I bet this chick is clueless on all counts! She needs to cut out the rocker, skull & bones, crap — It is fake, and phony, and NOT attractive!
rihanna looks tackey…
solo and janelle looks great…love them both (very talented women)
i hope the BEP are working on another album together..i miss them as a group..
oh and fantasia looks dirty…i dunno what it is, but something looks a little dusty..
alycia is very pretty
LMAO at everyone against ms. can never do wrong Ri-Ri. Agreed this is not an outfit to wear to a benefit but that’s Ri-Ri for you. Gotta try to be punk rock everyday. I actually work Betsey Johnson and this dress is an everyday casual sweater dress..
BTW..everyone else looks nice
Rihanna definitely looks great here but she is copying off of Laurie Ann’s look. Laurie Ann had that same look: the hair, the outfit, the boots back a couple of months ago when she was on the red carpet with Busta Rhymes. Rihanna really needs to get her own style.
JANELLE MONAE IS SO ADORABLE…I DIDN’T REALIZE SOLANGE WAS SO MIS- SHAPENED…WOW…SHE’S KINDA SHAPED LIKE A WHITE WOMAN ..LOL…I’M SORRY, BUT SHE IS…
Wow I cannot believe Fantasia has sold her soul to Lucifer. If you guys don’t already know the sign Fantasia is throwing up in both pictures is the horned devil hand signal. Its a fact, not an opinion, research that hand sign. She’s showing her allegiance to the Satanic order that runs the music business. I always thought she was saved and a believer. I guess the riches and fame are far more important than her soul. Her image has even changed SMH. You used to only see white youth at rock concerts throw up that sign, now it’s becoming ever more prevalent in the hip hop/urban scene. I saw Q Tip throw it up in his new video.
The skull and bones graphic on Rihanna is very demonic. Skulls represent death. Rihanna is being used to draw black youth into the darkside, she’s making the dark goth style seem cool. It’s not cool, and niether are the signs these celebs are throwing up. They are here to decieve you and keep you in the dark. Wake up. Yaweh is bringing everything that was once in the dark to the light.
MAN RHIANNA LOOKS LIKE A ROACH…AND JANELLE MONAE IS AN UGLY DWARFED UP ANITA BAKER…WHAT SONG DOES THIS MONSTER SING? AND ALSO THE “BOX” HAIR CUT (THAT JANELLE WHATEVER HER NAME IS )…IS ROCKING WENT OUT IN THE EARLY 90′S.
Muah. Get it fanny. Get it.
sang it girl. saaang it!
Rihanna looks gorgeous as usual. I am LMAO @ all these jealous women on here who wish they had it like that SMDH lol!
Fantasia should stop with that tacky hand sign that looks like a gang sign
She should also stop with the tacky tats and those tacky too long lee press on nails!
I don’t know, I’m starting think that her best days are behind her. SMDH again Fanny.
Someone said Fantasia lost 20 pounds, LMAOOOOO judging by her lower half that is simply not possible. Also, why does she always say she;s getting her G.E.D like every 2 years she says that but still has no kind of education. WTF is wrong with that picture. Who works on getting a G.E.D for like 5 years? lol
solo posing like j. is her prop.
My girl Fantasia MUST be working with a trainer and its definitely paying off!!! But, I honestly never realized how many tatts she had. Its a bit much.
Has anyone ever noticed how OLD Fergie looks in the face??? She’s supposed to be 33 and she looks more like 43.
ew who told rihanna she looks cute with that cheap, generic, obnoxious skull sweater dress?
and people say rih rih has style, puh-lease!
Cheri just because you work at Betsey Johnson does not mean that you have more style then the people who dislike Rihanna’s skull outfit. I don’t care if this skull sweater dress is the hottest thing since Chanel, its looks generic, cheap and dated even if it is “trendy”, which I highly doubt because skulls went out two years ago!
Womp womp womp just because the girls on here find Rihanna’s sweater dress skull outfit, or jacked up perm withdraw hair does not make them jealous. I’ve seen Rihanna at her very best, even when rocking the short hair cut, but this is just ferocious.
and fyi to all you ppl calling solange a giant, shes not a giant, the midget standing next to her is 4’11!!!
Fantasia looks ridiculous as usual. Would someone tell her spandex does not agree with her azz. PLEASE STOP IT HEFFA!
I know she’s from the hood and all, but why must she look like a ghetto chick all the damn time. Can she please give us a break with that damn rock star sign, bish you not a rock star! you’re barely a r&b singer on the chitlin circuit with rickey smiley damn!
I feel sorry for Tay, her career is in the toilet now. So sad. Fantasia needs to get with Keyshia Cole’s manager and learn how to work what she got…cuz her career is on life support.
Rihanna looks like star all the time, love her fit and those Louboutin boots, so cute!
Solo looks a mess and her and Janelle look like misfits lmao
RIHANNA: Get it girl! you are wearing that dress! I love it!
SOLANGE: I actually love me some Solange (despite not being fond of BEYONCE) its just ashame that her success will never launch to levels it should due to her sisters “overated” success. Her outfit is cute if only the shoes matched…whats going on girl? LOL!
BLACK EYED PEAS: Nice to see them together again. So use to seeing the apart doing their individual projects. I love me some Will i am!
FANTASIA: Just like I love me some FANTASIA (she did her thang at the PATTI LABELLE honors ceremony). But those TATOOS girl !! too many, makes her look “messy” what is all of that writing on her arms? Guess when some folks make $money$…TATOOS are up there on their priority list. I havent seen that many TATS on a black female singer since LIL MO was on the scene back in the day. LOL! What ever works FANTASIA, I aint mad at you.
Those are Christian Louboutin heels. Don’t know if anyone replied to you yet.
Riri is still the prettiest chick in the game, fly!
Tasia is just a mess, she is looking really ghetto and completely out of place as usual.
Solange looks like Janelle Monae and her are on a date yikes!
Will i am is my guy!
Solange is hot!!!
Solange has nice chocolate thighs!!!
Rihanna looks natural. What’s wrong with that? At least it shows she doesn’t need one thousand pounds of makeup to look good.
@ 92
Please don’t be so ignorant there are 50yr olds out there trying to get their GED…
But I didn’t know Rihanna was the newest member of BEP..Somebody @ concreteloop is in love with her because they just couldn’t put the picture of Fergie(whom is an actual member) as the main pic!? *confused* But is there a relation between Bill Bellamy and the girl from Daddys Girls? Just going by the last name, ya never know nowadays…lol
oooooooooooo look at my girl solange!!!!!! lookin fiyaaaaaah! im in love with her shoes, theyre tooo BADD, and that janeele monae girl, i think shes pretttty whatever she does.
everyone else looks HOT!
WHY DO YOU NOT INCLUDE PHOTO CREDIT? Annoying. It’s 2009, it looks so unofficial.
Is that Alecia from ‘DADDY’S GIRLS’ in the 6th thumbnail?? Always thought she was pretty.
it loks like rihanna head is just floating
solange look 7 feet tall standing to jannelle
skip fantasia
taboo and will i am posing funny as hell from the way they standing
UMMM @106, THERE MAY BE 50 YEAR OLDS TRYING TO GET A GED BUT DOES IT TAKE THEM 10 YEARS TO DO SO? LOL
I AGREE THAT FANTASIA STARTS WITH THAT BULL ISH ABOUT GETTING HER GED EVERYTIME SHE ABOUT TO DROP A NEW CD AND THEN YOU DON’T HEAR NOTHING ELSE ABOUT IT. ONLY HER STANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT.
COME ON, I WOULD BE EMBARRASSED TO STILL BE TALKING ABOUT STARTING TO GET HER GED WHEN SHE BEEN SAYING IT SINCE SHE WON ON IDOL. A PERSON WOULD HAVE TO BE STUPID NOT TO SEE THROUGH THAT SMOKE SCREEN. FANTASIA TALKS A GOOD GAME AND THATS ALL. ALL TALK NO ACTION. NEXT.>>>
please tell me fantasia let her daughter use sharpie marker on her hands and those are not real tattoos. lawd help me.
Rih usually has such killer style but not feelin the dress !
????? from the front her hair looks cute but the back is always a dry nappy MESS !!!
Damn girl get a touch up …and a line up …. when you have a short hair cut YOU GOTTA KEEP IT TIGHT !!!
everyone looks nice.
Cool! I never thought I would’ve seen Nikka Costa on CL. This is an artist who should be way more popular than they are. She combines soul and rock together perfectly into her sound and has put out consistently good music for years, but I guess it’s a good thing that she at least she gets recognition for her work when they play her songs on TV commercials and Bad Girls club. Royalty checks are never a bad thing.
