AWARENESS: SOLANGE PROMOTES “SAFE SEX” W/ MTV

Tuesday, April 14, 2009

Solange attends The Body Shop and MTV Networks’ Say Yes, Yes, Yes to Safe Sex event in New York on Tuesday.

Solange updated her twitter page earlier today with this info:

Today I have decided to dedicate myself to MTV’s “Staying Alive” campaign. Yes, Yes, Yes to safe sex to prevent HIV and AIDS. The Body Shop has created a great Lip Butter to support the campaign and proceeds go directly to the Staying Alive Foundation. This is a very scary topic, it could happen to ANY of us. 3,000 young people under 25 are infected with HIV daily! But it MUST be talked about!

My goal is to bring awareness in a very REALISTIC way. So many campaigns preach” Condoms Condoms Condoms” and it’s not getting thru..

Right now, there are over 33 million people living with HIV and AIDS around the world, and one of the main reasons is because people are having unprotected sex. You can do your part by taking to pledge to say yes to safe sex.

I’m glad Solange is onboard this project. More and More of us are dying and I can’t figure out what must be said or done for US…yes all of US to realize that AIDS is real and its killing us.

**When I say US I mean minority people mainly women under 30**

Yes, I will admit the irony here. However, are you guys saying that because she didn’t use a condom, she is forbidden from advising others to protect themselves of the dangers of condomless sex?

What actually makes her a whore? Because she had sex without a condom, or got pregnant under the randomly set age by the government of 18? None of those activities are new to anyone, considering the majority of women give up their virginity under the age of 18, and 1 in 3 women in the U.S. have had an abortion.

I mean what do we know about this girl’s personal life?

These girls need to get their image and what they are trying to symbolize Together. Solange can’t release a video for T.O.N.Y and some what make a mockery of it with sitting on a Toilet while awaiting the outcome of her pregnancy results. Now she wants to promote safe sex. These artist seem so crass these days. Anything to put their face out there whether it contradicts something they have just previously done. All I can say is I am glad I am a college student and building my business with my education. These more recent “celebrites” are all over the place. Why music from these newer desperte singers suck.

I think it’s a good thing that she can promote this awareness, having been there herself. I rather have someone who has been there “preaching” to me, rather than someone who never has had unexpected pregnancies, STD’s or anything else. She speaks from experience!

A black singer name Nadja Benaissa had unprotected sex with three people
without telling them beforehand that she was HIV positive. She was arrested
and if found guilty she could face up to 10 years in prison. Listen to her on
youtube. Maybe America should start sending people to prison who knowingly
effect others! Nadja is one of the most successful singers in Germany.

Germany don’t play that!

Solange looks good! Not to be funny…but Kelly never got this kind of publicity and Michelle she can hang it up! Kelly only had the the Dark&Lovely commercial! Solange has appeared in several major television commercial and magazine ads…although the majority of the ads are with Beyonce but at least she is getting the promotion! While Kelly wasted years on hardly no promotion at all and Michelle’s promotion is absolutely zero! Solange album is not even a major hit on the charts…even though it is a cool album…so it makes you wonder about Mr. Knowles professional obligation towards Kelly and Michelle or lack there of!

@15 & 21:

I consign.

I TOO see the irony & misfortune is this. My thing is whatever happen to MORALS… the way the Bible states them as; Marriage being honorable in the site of God considering SEX????? Promoting Safe SEX to me is JUST another weak justified SLIDEOFF of excuse basically saying —–’ You don’t have to WAIT, just make sure you don’t come up pregnant”…that’s the BLUNT way of putting it.

If MTV really wanted to have someone set a example the GREATEST example would be to get someone who’s NEVER had sex before.

I realize, that talking advice from a smoker encouraging me NOT to do so, is ‘more’ of a detailed exmaple so to speak…but for me the GREATER exmaple would be to talk to someone who was FACED with the tempetation (because it DOES come) but didn’t GIVE in even the slightest. That’s just being REAL.

Not judging Solange, but at this point she’s NOT the one to talk about anything RE SEX………..Practice what the HELL you preach.

uld say WHY even practice having SEX at all?

I don’t KNOW what neck of the woods you’re from but that statement is not truth….condoms are plastic, since WHEN does plastic not bust or break? They do. Furthermore, we didn’t HEAR of any RAPE, Solange’s child was NO mistake, openng your legs is not a mistake, it a decision you’ve made. Whether the child came before marriage or not….I don’t see it as being a mistake. I’m just being real.

To all the people with the negative comments realize that its people like u that make up the ignorant population in the world. Just cuz the girl didn’t use a condom in the past and had a child doesn’t mean that that’s still what she does now. I think someone like her is good for this because she can set an example of what not using a condom can get you.

A person who knows the negative side effects personally can help bring so much light to the positive because they know what its like to have lived and learned from that situation. Good for her and those that learn from this cuz who cares who it comes from? If somebody is helping to educate u on something that can help save ur life why not take a second to stop actin petty and listen dumbasses!

***Solange has great motives, but whatever happened to informing our kids about ***sex with the intent of aiming for abstinence. Why is it that we wait for celebrities ***to raise our children? When we allow celebrities to raise our children, we also
***put the seal of approval on the sort of values they represent. I’m sorry, Solange
***was pregnant before she said ‘I do.’ Therefore as a parent, I should speak to my
***children and enforce the sort of values I want them to display.

And yes you can get pregnant even when u use condoms. Don’t be foolish ladies. Abstinence is the only safest form of safe sex so if u out there having sex period take very careful precautions on everything u are doing.

Tuesday, April 14, 2009 /

I don’t see how her promoting safe sex is hypocritical.
Most motivational speakers promote organizations and involve themselves with programs that deal with their very own past experiences.
I want someone who has experienced hardships speaking to me about these topics. The ones who have experienced these situations aren’t very judgmental and they usually speak very passionately about the topic because they have been there.
Solange has a story and she chooses to share it through this organization. Her story believe it or not will get others to listen and maybe even change their ways.
Also, this awareness organizations promotes safe sex for preventing HIV/Aids, not pregnancy.
Solange’s situation could have been a condom ripping, or no condom at all.
The outcome however, was a blessing and not a curse.
Young girls will listen to what she has to say…

Thats good Solange want to send out a positive message. But this one they would have been better off having B do. Solange condomn didnt break keep it real aint nobody hatin she didnt wear one. She just gap those legs open had straight up sex no protection, and now she has a son. Stop acting like yall afraid to keep it real. That’s what happens when you have unprotected sex that or a diesease. LMAO!!!!! NOW THATS SOME REAL SHIT. RIGHT SOLANGE THAT DONT MEAN YOU CANT DO THE AD IN GET YO MONEY YOU TITE.

@41

I don’t understand why society just can’t except both concepts together. Whats wrong with preaching abstinence and safe sex at the same time?

Secondly, I am offended when a message that should be genuine is marketed through a celebrity who 1) does it for the money (as many of you have cited, Solange doesn’t reach the monetary level of her own sister) 2) who preaches a message that she can’t uphold.

how can anyone say she is being hypocritical?

does that make those women who were prostitutes and tell others not to prostitute themselves because of the past experiences they’ve had hypocrites?

does that make men who have been in jail hypocrites when they talk to the youth about staying out jail?

does that make MJB a hypocrite when she tells others not to do drugs b/c she’s been through the experiences?

does that make all the woman who have aids hypocrites for talking to others about aids prevention?

no, it doesn’t make them hypocrites, it makes them good people who do not want to see others go through the same problems they went through. if it’s hypocricy, then we accept hypocricy every day. i’m glad solange is using her influence for something positive and something so important in our society.

I absolutely dislike this broad. She’s so fraudish and wierd to me. Beyonce should be ashamed.

– The safest sex is no sex at all. I know a lot of you sleeze balls would never attempt not having sex for a week but let’s be real here. The most you can say is “safe sex, use condoms, and take birth control”. Why not talk to the damn kids about being a virgin until they’re married? Many people don’t believe in that but that is the best way to prevent all these illnesses. Because there is chance the condom may not protect or the birth control may not work. JUST STOP HAVING SEX PERIOD! These children are too young anyway. I mean, if it is really that hard, masturbation is always an option. I don’t recommend it but hey, if stops these youngings from doing shit they’re not suppose to, by all means try it.

And Solange needs to STFD, when her ass laid up in that bed AT AGE 17 she wasn’t thinking about no safe sex. Bitch, bye.

Solange doesn’t have AIDS or HIV nor does she have anything that may push her to support the cause except for money and face time. People, particularly celebrities, don’t do stuff for no reason.

Its just as bad as Bono promoting aid for Africa. That white guy doesn’t give a sh*t about Africa. He’s only talks about it is when one of his s*tacular CDs is coming out. The same for Alicia Key, Madonna and Oprah. Whenever one of their products is coming out, they are the first ones to run to an impoverish African village to wipe off the crust and bugs out of malnourished kid’s eyes. Plus, there is sh*t going on in Ireland and the US that these mediawh*res can talk about.

If she wanted to advocate something, she could discuss teen pregnancy. Now thats relevant.

Tuesday, April 14, 2009 /

@ 54..

Ha. I never said you couldn’t; HOWEVER, usually, before people get married they take tests to see what diseases their spouse may or may not have.

Do you think it is better to have sex with a guy you met a Starbucks a week ago then with your longtime Husband? These men can so easily say “I don’t have this or that” but with your husband you have paper proof to know what he’s carrying.

And getting pregnant is an issue too. Would you rather “accidently” get pregnant with a guy you know nothing about than with your husband? Exactly.

Waiting until marraige is not a bad thing and many people can benefit from it.

TiffWill, so did you wait until marriage before you did the deed? If so, kudos to you.

Anyways, what I think that poster is trying to say is, you just NEVER know. They are millions of cases where people have contracted the monster while in a committed relationship (marriage included) because on infidelity.

Also, are you saying to has to have AIDS herself to be an advocate for those causes. I’m very much into AIDS awareness & Breast Health Awareness, I’ve never personally had to deal with those issues but I know people who have.

I may be wrong but I think all the Knowles have gotten nose jobs. It’s just looking more plastic as time goes by. WOW @ some of these comments!! So is Magic Johnson a hyprocite if he talks about safe sex or AIDS prevention? Or someone who is no longer anorexic a hypocrite for talking about prevention to young teens? I think someone who has actually gone through that experience is just as likely to talk about prevention, as well as the ones who haven’t. Because in today’s world you have a little bit of both. Virgins and non-virgins all need awareness.

@61

I hear you, but guess what…with solange being the age that she is, I’m sure someone told her REPEATEDLY to wait, and she grew up in the age where abstinence and wearing condoms is jammed down our throats…so there were those who came before her, who were pregnant, who told her to wait and she didnt.

Therefore, this trick can’t tell me shyt. Her being pregnant and having a child, then coming later and telling me not to has no bearing and no effect because this trick didn’t even have enough strength to resist, but she wanna tell me to walk away.

I’m sorry, i’d rather hear this from someone who was tested and resisted this urge, someone who didn’t succomb to this, someone stronger, someone with merit, someone with credibility…What makes Solange credible? THe one who resisted and didn’t give in to this is the one to listen to….not the crack head who smoked crack for 20 years, telling the kids not to…I wanna talk and hear from the guy who got 10 members in his family smoking crack, and how he lost his job, and lost his girl, and had no one, and still didn’t smoke crack! That’s who i look to, not some hypocrital person who just giving me “mouth service” telling me to do something they couldn’t even do..

The whole been there done that notion is not credible to me..it may be to some, but not to me….Those who weathered the storm, those who said “i want to but i won’t” is the ones that i learn from cause they show it truly can be done to resist; and that would give me the notion that if he/she can, i can…..

I don’t believe this means anything to Solange, she could careless how many more hood babies are made. IIT’S MY BELIEF she’s doing this for more camera time and to stay out there and to be heard; her pop-eyed frog faced daddy told her to do this….somebody need to tell this shaven-done chin trick to go sit down, cause you talking but most people aint listening..

Well, no. I’m not married yet but I am engaged and I have never had sex with him. Let’s just say I’m still a virgin. A lot of people look at me like I’m crazy when I say this but I really don’t mind it. I just turned 27 on March 30th and I’m happy to say that I’ve stayed pure 27 years of my life. My man is deep into Christianity so he’s perfectly fine with it also. Of course there are times where I want to say “Sorry God, but this sin has got to be done” but I’ve been able to control my hormones and now there is no hunger for it. I mean it’s love > sex. I just know that our first time will be marvelous!

Not only did she not practice safe sex (no condom), but she let him skeet all up and through her!

I have to admit, i never had sex in high school. I knew a bunch of girls (not all friends, but some i just knew of) who it seemed like they had sex one time and got pregnant. I knew i wanted a life, so i hung around girls like myself who wanted anything and everything except a baby! We all were doing positive fun stuff to occupy our time. I started modeling with a Canadian modeling agency at the age of 14. It kept me busy, gave me goals, and most importantly, kept me around young women who wanted something out of life. We all knew you couldn’t get modeling jobs with a big belly. Might sound stupid, but it’s good for parents to do anything to get a young woman through the bloom of youth, when all you want to do is be loved (have sex) with a guy you like….I just couldn’t risk it. I didn’t run with the fast crew in school, i didn’t run with the low self-esteem group of girls, i ran with the crew who had it together mentally and physically….and it sustained me throughout high school and throughout college…..

So I’m sorry, Solange just seem like the biggest joke and the hypocrite of the decade to me. I’m certainly not downing anyone who fell short in that respect, but i certainly got a bone to pick of those who decide to stand in front of a group of people and tell me to do something they couldnt.

I completely understand.

I think it all depends on how people want to learn their lesson. Some people appreciate the aspect of hearing 1st hand accounts, others want to hear from those who resisted, and some just wanna learn the hard way by experiencing themselves.

What do you think about all the BET Wrap It Up celebs? LOL, for the men it’s like they have baby momma’s galore!

You are a very, very strange young lady.

I know you hate Beyonce and I stan for her but I just LOVE reading your comments. You’re so ridiculous it’s hilarious at the same time!

I see your point here. But I highly doubt Juelz is waiting for her at home, he’s always with someone else. She’s too irresponsable for him. If he’s not with his father he’s with Beyonce & Jay and if he’s not with them he’s with Tina & Matthew and if he’s not with them he’s with Solange.

oh yeah….dont have sex till you’re married…

because married people are always faithful to each other…come on…

there are enough cases where married ones became hiv from their partners, because they went to a whore…

and i dont see why she should not promote that. im not into her story, but wasnt she longer with the father of her son together? maybe the made an hiv test before?

most people in a relationship dont use condoms…

so stop stating some shit

and dont forget…everyone makes mistakes…and people learn from that! i think people who experienced something in their lifes are more able to promote such important themes than ones who are afraid of going out of their house! its credibility

and is it the make up or does she really look like beyonce?

I’m married, so I have don’t have to worry bout safe sex, but if I could have done it all over again, I would have waited till I got married. Then I wouldn’t have had to get tested before I got marred, and sweated it out. Even with Condoms you taking a chance now a days. They should really be doing a campaign against all these down Low dudes. I would never call a homosexual a slandered word. But these down low fags, I can’t stand em. Picking up these diseases, and bringing back home to your lady is wrong, and in my eyes worse than murder.

Safe sex is cool but in my opinion until you’re marred, and both of you and your spouse are tested. Safe sex is no sex, that’s the only 100% way to not get pregnant ladies, and ladies and gents not to get HIV, or any other STD.

#68 I hear, I think there’s two reasons girls have sex, No Father figure in the house or a bad father in the house. Or just straight out rebellion. It’s a known fact that girls who have men in their life who step and our really Fathers, and not just sperm donors. Those young ladies usually abstain from sex. Why? Because there Fathers take em dates spoil them and spend quality time with them, so there’s not a need to find that in a younger man. I agree however that keeping busy is also key.

@73

You said there were two reasons but you gave three…lol

Can I ask all the ladies on the post a question? Whether you give up the @ss on the first day, wait a month or year, don’t you still gave it up? I mean, don’t give me that he respects you more crap. Contrary to popular belief, the more the man waits the less he respects you. Let me tell you what this “waiting game” does to a man…it makes him angry. And all he is saying to himself, “as soon as I get this piece of a$$ I am out.”

But you know what? It men’s fault, we place too much importance on the p*ssy, when it really isn’t that paramount. The importance should be placed on the d*ck because a d*ck has a lifespan…hence it is more precious. A woman can still have sex at 80 years old, given her arthritis isn’t that bad. But for a man, as soon as he reaches 50 his boy starts to get lazy. That is why I believe a man should be able to legally have more than one wife, or woman. This will help us minimize our regrets when the time comes and all we can do is look and wish.

This sh*t is funny as hell to me. first of all, mtv doesn’t pay celebrities to be in a charity campaign - that’s real talk cuz i used to work there. I guarantee u solange didn’t get paid to do this campaign. second of all, the person talking about bono is a moron. do u know how much money he has raised for aids in africa? million and millions of dollars and that is a fact. how do u know if he cares about black people or not. maybe he cares about the human race no matter what race, color, or creed. u don’t know b/c u don’t know him. so please stop passing judgement on people who r trying to do good in this world. i bet he has raised more $$$$ for aids in africa than any person on this planet so please do ur research b4 posting ignorant comments u know nothing about. AND the $$$$ he has raised is far more than anything ur ignorant ass has raised for anyting - and that’s a bet!! Alicia Keys is passionate about her charity too and is involved in it throughout the year. maybe we only hear about the charities when these people have an album coming out b/c that is when the media covers them and puts them out there.

i just hate it when dumb ignorant people are so negative and have so much hatred towards any and everyone. get a life - for real!!! to that point, why is solange a slut? do u people know her personally? are u a saint yourselves? u know nothing about this girl other than what u think u know by reading dumbass gossip sites. she is promoting a cause that has to do with prevention of hiv/aids. she is promoting personal responsibility and being smart. she is not saying i’m perfect so u should listen to me. she is saying think and be smart about what u do. protect yourselves. kudos to her!!!

I, for one, like what Solange is doing. I can’t sit here and question her motives because I don’t know her personally. Some people on this board may feel that if you have failed in a particular area, you shouldn’t share your story but I say awareness is awareness. Just because you look at her as a hypocrite, someone else may not. And if there are fans out there that she reaches with this message, hey who are we to discourage her?

You make a good case for North Africa. There are Moroccans blacker than
that keybord you’re typing on. Though they know it or not…by the American
brown bag standard, she’s black! It’s like you’re saying…he’s Cuban not black.

Maybe I’m wrong for seeing Black as a heritage…and not as a race! Moroccans
Indians, and Egypians from Africa have played the politics of race for thousands
of years. Many of them are blackier than anyone in the US. Forgive me for
not being politically correct. I didn’t mean to blow anyones cover, but when I
see some one with Nadja’s skin, nose and coarse hair…I call them black and
Caucasian (or white) as you would have me to believe.

If anything, she would be German rather than Moroccan because she was born
in a German city called…Frankfurt am Main…not Morocco!

You may know the genealogy, but I know the politics.

I, personally, would be interested in other methods of preventing STDs (other than condoms). Is she gonna be preaching abstinence? we all know that doesn’t work.

i think they should have commercials displaying what STDs look like. half these kids runnin around here, not even sure what a yeast infection is. a lot even equate being knowledgable about STDs with having had one or knowing someone with one.

#75, I totally agree w/that statement. #86, I do not think that’s why girls/women have sex. It’s a choice. I mean it could be for some, but for others, there are many other reasons they choose to have sex. The only thing I just don’t get is w/all the birth control out here: condoms, pills, nuvaring, etc, how does our population & diseases keep going up???? I agree w/another poster about how keeping busy is key. If you are responsible, and have other things going on, you won’t have to go through the drama, diseases, kids, etc. I’m just saying, be responsible! #89, I agree w/you all the way on the 1st part of your comment. My brother schooled me on all that. You still give it up!

I hope some of you realize how ignorant you sound.

Since when is it a bad thing for a person to advocate, protecting yourself and making better decisions? Just because she had a baby as a teenager doesn’t mean she can’t encourage others to make better life decisions. Promoting safe sex, is as simple as that: promoting safe sex. She may not be infected with HIV, but there are plenty of people all over the world that are infected with HIV or AIDS yet they still advocate and promote safe sex. They use their life experiences as an example of what not to do. Are they too not allowed to speak on it because of their past mistakes?

I think this is a very brave move for her to make BECAUSE she is a young mother and had a child at a young age; puts her in a vulnerable position to be criticized. But anyone who dwells on that, rather than seeing this for the bigger picture (that regardless of what happened in her past, she could very well get through to many and save people from making irrational decisions), is purrely out of touch with reality and far removed from moving our society, forward.

If you’re going to criticize someone for trying to do good and contribute to their community, make sure your own house is in order.

Let me add this, I hope the same people in here getting on Solange about promoting AIDS prevention, also took the time to get on TI when he decided to use his community service requirements to better the lives of people in community by encouraging them to give up the street life. I’m sure many of you tuned into the Road to Redemption. TI damn near bought up a whole artillery and violated the law on MORE than occassion, soooo, is he too precluded from encouraging at risk youth to get off the streets and to stay in school?

@JCSCENE…Though I disagree with your notion in regards to Solange, I totally agree with your overall perspective on life issues. It’s easy to screw and have a baby or smoke crack and not take care of your children!! The hard work comes with not conforming to theses types of situations!! I have been married for quite some time and my husband and I don’t have children. So many of our people constantly ask why as if were doing something wrong by finishing college and establishing ourselves prior to. It annoys me, but think about it, what if I were to ask them, “Why did you have all of your children out of wedlock and by different men?”. I’d be bijou and inappropriate right?? No, we need to learn that there is a way to do things and despite the fact of not being perfect because none of us are, we all have the choice of choosing!!

Just because you have made some bad or questionable choices in your life does not mean that you are forbidden or cannot give advice to others who may or are headed down the wrong path. Some of you people on here are so ignorant. Having a child at 17 has nothing to do with whether or not she is qualified to speak on safe sex. All of us should be promoting safe sex with all the new HIV/AIDS (and other STDS) and teen pregnancies we get on a daily basis. We all make mistakes and none of us are living in glass houses, good job Solange!

HEY EVERYONE… HOW ABOUT OUR CHILDREN PRACTICE ABSTINENCE OR SAFE SEX TO PREVENT TEEN AND YOUNG PREGNANCIES! How come people admitt that it’s a problem with AIDS but don’t face the fact that having a child at a young age isn’t a GOOD IDEA! I do think she’s contradicting herself by saying, use a condem to prevent aids, but isn’t standing up for NON TEEN PREGNANCY! I was amazed when she stood up for Jaimie Lynn Spears for being a teen mom when Jaimie was pregnant. That’s the only problem I have with her. I’m not trying to be MEAN to her or bring up the past but if you’re going to say one thing and do another, you’re being a bit hypercritical! I always wondered why people acted like having a child as a teen isn’t a BIG DEAL. I guess because people automatically think that’s saying “YOU”RE A BAD MOM” but some many financial and emotional issue go with being a young mom. I wish there were more organizations against this like their are with STDS!
