It’s safe to say that Solange Knowles was the talk of the net on Thursday, as well as on Twitter. Well the singer spoke via her twitter page about all the “controversy”:
listen. if. i. wanted. to. make. a. statement. i. would. have. twitpic’d. photo shoot. ect. i. was. simply. taking. my. son. to. school. stupid. paps. took. pic. ive. had. my. hair. cut. like. this. for. two. weeks. i. was. NOT. inspired. by anyone. but. my. self. i. have. done. this. twice. in. my. life. i. was 16. i was 18. did. not care about your opinion. then. dont. care. now. dont. need. your. attention. or. your. co-sign. dont. want. a. edge. up. or a perm. because. im not trying. to make this “a style” or a statement. i. just. wanted. to. be. free. from. the. bondage. that. black. women sometimes. put. on. themselves. with. hair. this. phase. of. my. life. i. want to spend . the time. the energy. and the money. on something else. not in the hair salon. im. not. mad. at . all of you. that have made your opinions known. and have sent negative. energy. my way. i expected this of you. you. have. the right to have. an opinion. so. do. i.
I’m feeling Solange, I recently cut my dreads off and am rocking a baby fro. DO YOU PEOPLE. And for the record, Cassie didn’t start anything – it’s been done and will be done 1000x over again.
I absolutely adore this look on Solange! alot of these comments are pure ignorance..people say if she doesn’t care what people say, then why would she comment? Well of course, because she was thrusted into the spotlight after people RAGGED on her, she probably felt compelled to tell her side of the story. other “celebrities” such as Bow Wow, Soulja Boy, and Latavia (former DC member) made extremely harsh comments after the paparazzi took the photo. I think its disheartening to see the majority of people who are giving her the hardest time are Black Women. claiming her hair is too “nappy” or head is too “this”…God is credited for creating her, so ultimately your insulting God!! PS to those who are saying Y such a big deal about the “freeing of natural hair” you probably chemically process your hair or your a man still psychologically bonded by the slave mentality..”im no soul girl ‘quipped w/ no afro..im just my God-Given Name”- Solange
What an idiot. “Bondage that black women have with their hair” bullshit. and by saying that you are in fact making a statement. if you werent making a statement all you would have said was “i cut my fucking hair, damn get off my nutsack.” thats real talk not “making a statement”. and she look stupid as shit with that cut too. but then again its her choice. so i say props for doing you but just dont call out other black women cause you want to look like a fool.
solange come on u already know if they aint talkin bout u,u not important so let them talk.
