    I think she suppose to be on Good Morning America tomorrow if I heard correctly. Good to see she’s still active and working.

  9. WillPwr

    I read most of the reviews this morning via eurweb.com and they were not kind to Ms. Douglas. I was surprised they cast her for the role.

    I guess Raven Symone was busy doing something else. LOL

  10. mrs.sk8board p (ak & bk stan)

    LOL, century 21?? :lol: HAHAHA! yea what was she performing?

  11. shellboogie

    She looks so pretty, I wish her all the luck in the world.

    She seems to be a really nice person.

    I wish she would shed this tough exterior, and be more relaxed. But, I really like Ashanti.

    Her man Nelly is fine !

  12. HATER INTHE MOTHAFKIN HOUSE

    ASHANTI TRYIN TO LOOK LIKE KIM KARDASHIAN IN THIS PHOTO!
    WATS IT WITH BLACK WOMEN TRYIN TO EMULATE THESE ARAB AND WHITE WOMEN? THEY WILL NEVER BE LIKE THE REAL THING! THEY CAN TRY BUT THEY DONT CUT IT!
    THEY JUS COME ACROSS AS FAKE AND DESPERATE..

    I HATE THIS FVCKERY, BLACK WOMEN NEED TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND LEARN TO LOVE THEIR NATURAL LOOKS… I LIKE TO SEE ASHANTI WITH SOME DREADS OR A AFRO ONCE IN A WHILE..

    @12

    You sound like a fool. Ashanti been rocking that same style for years now all of a sudden she is trying to be like another? Get out of here with that crap.

  19. deena

    Ashanti is not a cute girl. Even with makeup she looks weird and alien like. Ugh.

  20. PoPLock

    what is she playing in the WIZ, the LION! Ms Murder INC.

  21. Kareem

    I am so ready for a new Ashanti Album

  22. TLD

    She needs to lay the pink lipstick because it makes her look clownish almost.A different choice of lipstick would of been better.

    Kudos for her for doing her thing though.

  23. CamilleStarr

    @12 If Not mistaken Ashanti was looking like this way before we knew who KK was! Nothing’s change with her – she still has it;

  24. S. Dot

    Very pretty lady. Her face, not her voice.

  25. Renae

    Ashanti looks nice, look like she lost weight as well.

  26. judah=undercover butt pirate

    i dont like bubblegum lipstick on black females

    otherwise she looks pretty..

  27. Fine-N-Mellow

    Love Ashanti that’s my girl.

  28. AkeysFAN1981

    She has some hefty shoes to fill being that Ms. Stephanie Mills just kills the song
    “Home”. I don’t think she can do it. But at least she is working.

  29. AmerieInternetTeam

    It’s on now on itunes!

  30. MiSSSEXY

    I See There’s a lot of Haters in the house. I bet when she first came out with that “Foolish ” song you was jamming it in the car or singing along to it… so quit the hating…. Ashanti is beautiful and always seems happy.. She can do no harm! YAAYY ASHANTI!

  31. Brina

    Ashanti looks beautiful. T4P,

  32. Tiff.Will. [CL's "BeyStan"]

    Sucha baby face, it is not even funny. Her wardrobe is a HOT ASS MESS.

  33. Hotlikefiya

    @ # 12. Are you serious? Ashanti always looked like that is Kim K the only person who can sport black wavy hair? Get a better insult!!!!!!!!

    Anyway Ashanti looks cute and her last album was good. Even though no one bought it! LOL

  34. PYT

    She looks really good here. The hair, makeup, dress and shoes! Go girl!

  35. PYT

    WTF is wrong with #12?

    @WillPWR whoops that’s too bad and you wrong for the second comment lol!

  36. So I think I love H.I.M.

    Ashanti looks very beautiful, shes not stick thin but she healthy and carries herself nice.
    @12
    You would like to see her rocking some dreads or a fro? Thats not her style she’s been wearing her hair like that for years. One good thing about black women is that they can switch up their style to just about anything. But afros and dreads arent the only thing that shows our “roots”. Maybe she’d like to see you stop hating!

  37. my opinion

    Finally some relief from the ri-ri and chris bruisy post.

    I’m glad ashanti keeps her relationship in closed doors, she’s surround around family and she’s grounded. No phoney image to display, she’s just doing her. This goes to show that what glitters, is not always gold.

    And I know I’m going to get heat for stating my opinion. Go right ahead cause your just another blogger stuck in hollywood.

    Peace

  38. truthfullyspeaking

    Oh no, she actually sung? I thought we established already that her voice is mediocore. Every time I see her, she always has on too much makeup or too much weave. She looks fake… seriously, fake eyelashes, bright barbie lipstick, a load of foundation, she needs to ease up on the makeup ( as do many female celebs) but if she did, she would look even worse. I’ve been tired of her it’s just annoying to see posts of her because she aint even relevant in the music biz anymore. It’s funny how y’all clown Cassie for sleeping with Diddy to get in the biz (which is okay) but then don’t even remember when Irv admitted that him and Ashanti fooled around when she was in the process of being signed.

  39. msblknasty1

    no 0ne and i mean no one can sing home like stephanie mills… ashanti is cute tho lolol

  40. HaveAHart

    BEAUTIFUL!!!!

  41. BASHYBOO

    SHE LOOK AMAZING AS ALWAYS! NOW WHERES THE ALBUM, THE WEDDING AND THE BABY SHANTI DAMMIT!

  42. the_one

    Can I just say although I do not love Ashanti’s make up choices, so over the 1980s reds, pinks and sometimes that dreadful orange, she has the best weaves. Recently pictures of Kelly R-, Beyonce and others (even my girl Si Si and Venus) have surfaced and I am like your hair is a mess, so I say this with much love, you all need to look at Ashanti and get that weave tight. She is doing it right. I know that was a long way to give someone a compliment but most the time I am not feeling the artist, celebs, people of know talent etc, I am not a follower but a leader so I am not going to love people just because they are famous or hate you just cuz you famous. I’ll leave that to other bloggers.

    the one—shut the back door.

  43. YJOCKME

    I don’t know why people are always hating on Ashanti on this site….she is a very beautiful girl and I think she carries herself very well…..she may not sing better than some but she holding her own……do you Ashanti….

  44. shellboogie

    @ # 12 You must be smoking.

    Kim K. is not even worthy to be mentioned at all. She is famous, why?

    Because she had a sex tape with dirty little Ray J. that hardly qualifies her for celeb status or for anyone to compare Ashanti to her lame (fake) ass.

    Ashanti you deserve so much. I love you and you must have the “Good, Good” to keep that fine ass man Nelly for all these years.

  45. lisa

    I went and saw the Wiz and she did an amazing job. Vocals and all, everyone did an amazing job, so to the haters on here, you really need to quit it because for one I don’t see none of yall doing anything but being haters, here’s a question for the haters,l how much to they pay you guys for being haters.

  46. WHATEVER AS USUAL

    #12 shut the hell up (you weird asshole)

    Black women are the only race of women that can switch it all up and go any direction you knucklehead..get a life

  47. kill all tha haters

    love aSHANTI!!!

  48. *«SOLiD RiCH GiRL»*

    Ashanti looks very pretty and she’s always doing and staying postive and she makes good music.People will always hate on her,me,and you no matter what.
    If you’re being hated on you must be doing something right.
    HATERS CAN FALLBACK!!!

  49. mel

    I love Ashanti and although no one can replace Stephanie Mill’s version, she did a great job. For all you hater’s talking about her outfit, that is her costume for “The Wiz”, not an outfit that she would regularly wear. People should really go and see it before they comment about her vocal ability. Its much better live. I have always been a fan and can admit that I was a little doubtful that she was able to pull it off, but she proved me wrong.

    I can say one thing, for her to have all these hater’s, she continues to do her thing with a smile on her face and her head held high. That is what women do and she does a great job at not letting people bring her down. Her song “shine” reflects how she keeps going.

    Keep going Ashanti. The Declaration was a good album and her writing skills are sick. Even haters can not question her writing abilities. I think she should write more for other artist because many people have great voices but nothing to say.

  50. Lynn

    Wow a picture where her mouth is not wide open. What happened? This is not normal.

  51. litababes

    her wardrobe is not a hot mess cause thats the costume for the play if you actually went and seen the performance you would have known that and she did her thing on that stage she performed very well! black people always gotta hate! She doing something with her life at least more than all yall damn haters so congratulate her!

  52. Plumz

    #45 (the_one) I completely agree. In my opinion girls on the East coast know how to keep their hair fake or not on point. Thats my observation, all those chicks you mentioned are from the South, or West coast.

    Point.

  53. CjBRUHH17

    Whyyy is she performing.. um who allowed this? not permitted.

  54. cujo

    pretty wit a nice built,aint nothin change.go girl
