ANGEL!!!!
Please tell us where Shia got that dress
Its so simple yet flattering to us shapely girls shape : ]
C’mon Shia, you are old enough to know not to leave the house in a wrinkled dress. What’s REALLY good?
ashanti is gonna be fat just like her mom and sister. Nelly better watch out that thickness is gonna turn into a hot fat mess
They look great!!! Luvin Ashanti’s dress. Her lil sis look like she lost some weight.
Ashanti looks nice. I don’t like the matchup of her shoes and dress, but she’s still pretty. Shia looks like she has lost weight because even a tight pair of spanks can’t make her stomach that small so she has to be eating less lately. Plus she lost weight in her face. Anyways Ashanti shape is fly. She has little to no stomach. She don’t have flabby arms, no fats calves, no fat face. I don’t see where the she’s fat comes in at. White women and even some black women pay to have a body like hers. I think some ppl are still stuck on how she looked when she first came out….it’s called maturity.
Ashanti’s weight always goes up & down because she’s really supposed to be a thickums like her sis & mom. It looks as though she’s been hitting up the gym lately though.
You can tell which celebs are meant to be thick cuz they constantly have to fight off the weight.
Ashanti’s hair and makeup is gorgeous, and overall she has a nice figure as long as she keeps it under control.
Shia on the other hand is cute in the face, but her body needs alot of work (rolls my eyes at some of the posters) cute shape my be-hind! It’s not cute when you have cellulite in your arms…yes, that rippled fat is cellilute! She needs to hit the gym HARD and keep it up. She probably looks a hot buttered mess under that dress trying to keep it all together with them spanx. Shia got a pretty face, but she shouldn’t wear her hair back like that with such a big body, cause it gives the impression of her head being extra small and round…just not a good look…she should have actually done something with her hair. That’s why she had all that cellulite when we saw her last pics! The girl got too much excess lumpy fat on her body just sitting there. She don’t look terrible, it’s just such a pretty girl can look so much better. IF she hits the gym, she can be a 10! Shia i only said it cause i care.
And nobody said there’s anything wrong with having curves, it’s just all the meat stacked on top of the curves that presents the problem. When you are naturally shapely, you should keep your weight down cause when your body has big curves, it makes your body seem larger.
None of these women are fat, but just fat tendencies….
@ # 28 I have hollered!!! Now that was funny. Shia looks great! Isn’t her figure what a lot of our black men want – the itty bitty waist & the full hips. That is the shape we as African American women have had since time…. Now if Ashanti can go & put those drapes back up or put her mother’ prom dress back in the closet, then everything will be alright.
Another thing, fat makes your body look aged quicker! Shia looks like she done had some kids!!!!! Body looks a bit worn i have to admit…just like alot of other younger girls i see walking around the mall, thinking they are hot shyt. Your body only looks good with extra weight if it’s tight. That’s why some big girls can carry off more weight. But when your weight and skin looks loose and wobby, that’s a big no-no. Looks like your body just went through trauma or something.
If you stay slim and trim, gives you a more youthful appearance. Shia is too young and youthful in the face to have a body to the contrast.
THE ONE ARE U A DAMN TRAINER OR SUMTHAN? U GOT GOT THE WORK OUT PLAN AND EVERYTHING.
@ Shevonne thats common knowlegde amongst folk that work out. LOL..
and @ Chocolate Drop yeah I agree that Ashanti has indeed hit up the gym she has dropped a few in recent weeks cause it was getting a lil extra weight wise…
and @ BLessed… if flabby and out of shape is what most AA men want then I’m not it………..what in the world…..
on second thought/glance that dress is camoflouging thats why she picked it LOL…legs and arms are the giveaway…. when you come down weight wise its all over, you can’t spot reduce..tighten up girllly
Hey ya’ll! Ashanti is beautiful… i met her in person a few months ago and let me tell you guys that these pics dont even do her justice. If you think she’s fine in these pics, you’ll be amazed if she were in your face. My jaw dropped!! lol im serious tho… she really is a beautiful woman and she she hardly wears make up!! I love me some Ashanti… homegirl deserves more credit… the only female out there writing all her songs, and has a wonderful voice (tho people like to hate) Stop the ish ya’ll! Cop THE DECLARATION you wont be mad! =)
Shia has lost some weight but she needs to remember it’s a thin between fries and shakes.
They look nice.
ON A SIDENOTE, DID YOU GUYS HERE THAT THE GAME AND EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS PROBABLY WON’T BE RENEWED?
Ashanti and her sister don’t look NOTHING alike.
Ashanti looks nice. I’m glad to see her out doing something. Wish she would do more movies. She one of the only FEW singers that can act. Her fam looks nice as well.
Why are we all up in arms over someone else’s weight. We all know skinny people in poor health and big women in good health and vice versa. At the end of they day as long you’re satisifed with what you look like and healthy and so is your man, or hell woman…why care so much?
I agree #78. And I bought those shoes Shia has on out of Bakers last night. But overall everyone looks physically beautiful, I’m not too fond of Ashanti’s dress, but she’s still pretty.
@ Ann.
The only ones that are worried and calling that girl fat are the stick figures. U know..the ones that are built like 10 yr old boys. Sitting at the computer with a flat chest, and a pancake ass. Must suck to be u guys.
I think they all look great. Ashanti is really pretty. But whoever said Shia was an 8 is crazy! She is a cute girl but she is a anywhere from a 12-14. I’m a 6 and she is waaay bigger than me. Nothing wrong with meat on ya bones, just not too much that it is nasty!
Let’s all remember that height also plays a large role in what size someone wears. I’m tall for a woman, and wear a smaller size than what most people would think. It just depends on how your body is made and where the weight falls.
why does ashanti have on a gold dress and silver shoes??? and her mom needs her own life
Dam the whole family could get it. especially miss thickums!
SOME OF U ARE SO UGH NEED TO BE NET SLAP BEAUTY DOESNT COME WITH A SIZE 2 HELL ITS HOW U CARRY URSELF IN MY OPINION IF U THINK U R THEN U R
WHY DOES EVERY1 HAVE TO CONTiNUE TO HATE ON SHiA?
SHE iS A GORGEOUS GiRL
ACTUALLY PRETTiER THAN ASHANTi AT MANY TiMES
AND OBViOUSLY SHE HAS A NATURALLY BiGGER SHAPE..
SHE DOES NOT LOOK FAT..AND BAD
HER STOMACH iS FLAT AS HELL AND SHE JUST LOOKS THiCK
i THINK THEY ALL LOOK BEAUTiFUL.
GIVE PROPS WEN DO
THEN TO SAY SHE LOOKS TOO “PLAiN JANE”
NOW iF SHE HAD SOME RiDiCULOUS OUTFiT ON YALL’D BE CLOWNiN HER OR TRYNA SAY SHE TRYNA OUTSHiNE ASHANTi

ASHANTI HAD HER TEETH DONE…..VERY NICE!!! HOWEVER CHANGING YOUR APPERANCE DOESN’T CHANGE THE ACT SISTA…BUT U LOOK FRESH AND REVIVED. DID U DITCH NELLY OR DID HE PUT A RING ON IT?????
very pretty!
I don’t get ppl, y’all love to embrace J.Hud and Queen Latifah, but talk shit about ashanti who is not half as big as them! AShanti is a very petite girl which means she is short, so any little weight she gains, is more noticeable! Damn! SHe looks good!
Ashanti Looks GORGEOUS & is a very Beautiful women indeed………
Whole fam is pretty people, sorry but her sister need to hit the gym
LmAO @ 87. but on a serious note…Ashanti is not as big as people profess. I rather wear what she’s wearing instead of what Be w hore to the Oscars…now that look like curtains.
i think out of all these female singers ashanti is the most beautiful, right next to miss alicia keys. Theyre both really natural and real. Ashanti hardly wears make up, or weave. her hair is long and beautiful, tho im sure she may add extentions to make it look fuller. Did ya know that shes of chinese, dominican, and black. BEAUTIUL woman indeed!
HATE her sis;s shoes. Ashanti looks cute . . .
Damn Ashanti’s sister got some hips and thighs on her! For the most part everyone looks cute, but Shia shoulda did her hair differently. Her hairstyle made the whole outfit look soo…regular.
Um their outfits are not cute!
way cute im loving both dresses. ashanti need to be onthe radio!
OMG……..
Ashanti looks Gorgeous. Simple but yet sexy, her sister resembles her alot in the face.
They are a Beautiful family
Facial wise, she looks cute, but that dress is a hot mess. The color is too much, the bottom makes it look like a cheap Dancing With The Stars reject dress/lingerie, and the scrunchie style is sooo Prom 2006ish.
A for effort, F for execution!
@ #92- Tbone
You are Right…..Ashanti is a Natural beauty and is wayyyyyyyyyy PRETTIER than artificial beyawnce
@tbone she does wear a lot of makeup and weave. she sticks with natural-looking makeup though (neutral colors). i think she looks best like that
her sister does need to lose weight.whenever you HAVE to wear spanx to keep your stomach flat, you know there’s a problem. you can be smaler and have curves ppl. look at halle, kelly rowland, kerry washington, etc. i’m tired of hearing some black ppl act like in order to be black, womanly, sexy etc. you have to big. it’s like hearing monique talk about how curvy she is and it’s not like, no you’re fat. curvy and fat are not synonymous.
they all look great! lovin the color of shia’s dress. big ups to cl for makin the pics easier to review!!!!
Ashanti, shia and mom are very pretty girls. They are a lil thick though. I am in need in losing some wieght and toning up, so i will not talk about shia’s fat ass. Lmao. Syke. Pretty girl
CL, you guys are the best. You listened to our rants/complaints and finally put up a slideshow to view pictures. Can even preview the next and previous picture. You guys are definitely “Movin’ on up”! Keep up the good work.
Ashanti looks ok. Lost weight as well as her sis.
NOT TO CHANGE A SUBJECT BUT GO DOWNLOAD CIARA NEVER EVER FEAT YOUNG JEZZY ON ITUNE’S.IT’S DOING GOOD.
this woman is beautiful in anything she wears. the only looks that have done her wrong were the ones she chose during the concrete rose era (when she had all that weave; you can tell and it looked really bad on her… also the previous one with the short wig) Other than that Ashanti is always looking fine… and her sister is cute for a thick woman. People who post negative comments are usually insecure people. Being insecure leads to jealousy. Jealousy leads to hate. Then it all gets ugly. Lets get real ya’ll, Stop the hatin! Go Ashanti!!! =)
number 103 damn as hell, coming out here trynna promote Ciara who her career bout to be over. Don’t tryn too hard if people ain’t feeling da song. So that u know, this is Ashanti’s zone, if you feel it don’t feel it, it is her zone.
Can ANYONE tell me what is going on the CW’s The Game? Why haven’t there been any new shows???????????
People need to stop talking about clothes sizes and who’s fat or skinny. They are people. Would you want a blog full of people to critique your clothes and dress size? C’mon, now. In any case, as many of the commenters on this site are black or Latino, it’s pretty likely that you, your friend, your mama and you sister-in-law’s baby’s cousin Mookie, is overweight. Maybe you should spend more time chasing them around the block for a few miles before you comment on what size someone else is or should be wearing.
And because I can take my own advice, I’m going to go work out so that I can keep my fine brown frame in line. I suggest you do the same and worry about yourselves.
(#106) iT’S BEEN CANCELED. THEY W0N’T BE COMiiN OUT WiTH ANy NEW EPiSODE’S ANYMOR3E.
ashanti looks nice & her little sister still beauiful.
Ashanti looks good but that dress is a mess looks like they messed up at the bottom and was like FUCC IT! Her mam needs to SIT DOWN SOMEWHERE!! Her sis is growing….
Ashanti’s dress is wack from the waist down!
Ashanti always look cheap and fake to me. Her clothes always look like Halloween costumes. She is gorgeous though- most of the time. Her sis not fat either, so shut up you haters!
#105–The Game and Everybody Hates Chris is getting the same treatment as Girlfriends, they are going away on the CW, but I think TV one or BET is going to pick them at least The Game up.
What else can you expect? As soon as networks converge the “ethnic shows” were people have some family values or some common sense get pushed to the side….but yet shows that make us look like over-sexed, money hungry buffoons always prevail.
Ashanti and her family are very beautiful. Ashanti and her family are very close and it is really nice to see a real Black family like hers today. So many Black families are not close. When you see a Black family like hers with a father and a mother who are married and who care about their children we as Black people should not hate on that. Ashanti is not doing nothing wrong because family should lookout for family. We as Black people like hating on each other and it should not be that way. By the way, Ashanti’s is definitely not fat and her dress is suppose to look like that. STOP ALL THE HATING!!!!
#75 The Game is my show, I did hear that. I don’t understand how they take good shows off the air but leave on all these little silly white shows and moving The Game to Friday nights wasn’t a good idea, no one is home on Friday nights. What about Mon-Thurs.
Is Shanti working out??? Her arms are so big now!! Nelly must have her in the gym. Overall they look nice. Her sister is borrowing a page from Bey’s book with the hair, but still looks ok.
were they the only ones there? why are there no other people in any of the pictures?
i like Ashanti’s dress and the color, also her mother outfit is cute.
But her sister’s dress it”s “interesting”, dang she is big
Ashanti’s dress is ugly here…I don’t see it. The whole look is ehh with the usual 20+ bangles…Let’s be real. SMH @ #92 Tbone…you must never be paying attention to Ashanti’s photos…she wears alot of makeup in them.
Shia’s dress is ok..she looks kind of pale
I’m glad Ashanti lil sis toned it up… cuz last time I seen her, that baby was wide and alllllll over the damn place LOL, she lookin rite now…
