“Rising Icon” I think not, BET tries to do big things but they can’t because our black “truly inspirational/change history” stars pool is low, other races”Icon” pools aren’t too full either, so they need not go forward with this “Icon” mess. I did like Kerri until I watched a slow dance performance live on youtube-I didn’t appreciate her struggle (don’t force singing, just write), next I started being unable to look at that tacky halloween nest curled up on her forehead, tired of her and Amber Rose in the tight pants and goth boots, tired of the forced sex appeal, the drunk/tranny photos, beautiful girl, but not too photogenic-looks lifeless, halloween-ish and tacky, Icon..indeed not
It’s sad… I see all the comments that praise this girl and I realize that people really don’t know what real talent is. Every since I watched her performance on the 09 Bet Awards, I have been truly been disinterested. She struggled on that stage something terrible. It was so corny, I was embarrassed for her and her family. The sad part about it is, she doesn’t even know she’s corny. Ugh
P.S. She’s not a good writer, either.
@ AMI i agree with ,keri looks beautiful but the outfit is jus tso wrong , she is not pulling it of right. people stop hyping her up as this great writer must of her songs are not written by just her most of her hits where written with like 3 other people. I think theres better people out there than her , she just blends in with every other rnb artist and it is the truth . but i hope her the best.
Dope with the pen and pad…not in love with her voice but you cant knock the hustle…
@Whiley #17..make sure you check the creds before you diss someone..she wrote the dopest song on MJB’s “Breakthrough” album…TAKE ME AS I AM….for her writing creds..google her…its a VERY long list…
@ YES #8….I feel you..although not the best vocally SLOW JAM is my ISH…
oh yeah..and even if she wrote with a GROUP of people…what yall writing? man if you aint got nothing to say..then dont say nothing…
you get what you give….
believe it….
Peace….
i have the same vest, from forever 21. dead ass.
I love keri but she needs a new look, shes in japan, so i’ll give her outfit a pass LOL
This chick is a wreck! Does she intentionally try to look a mess??
its hammer time!
MC HAMMER IN THIS BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF IS SHE WEARING??????????
NO KERI…………NOOOOOOOO.
@@ #31:
Keeping up with Beyonce and Rihanna?? I doubt it.
Ciara is chillin in California for the summer and not doing anything musically productive and Keri Hilson has a long way to go to catch up to her credentials.
Number 57 AND 58
ppl like u are the reason why Beyoncé and her fans know damn well she is that b!tch, u spend so much time focussin on her and want her to fail that she always has the last word, your negative energy will continuously make her better!
For your info, keri dissed beyonce in her remix and said she needs to sit down and have some babies she is fadin calling her a hoe she is not the best; no one was comin at her until this remix she claimed polow made her do it. Timbaland also mentionned that beyonce better watch out cuz keri was about to come for her while keri and polow bein there and agreein.
Keri in interviews always throwin shades indirectly at the other successful females there critisizin the way they dress or act while she is doin the same, she dissin ppl to make herself look better; I am sorry but if beyonce fans are comin at her thats her own damn fault, as a starter when u come, u gotta give respect to your peers who were there before you and paved the damn way for you, u dont come and call them hoes to have buzz for your damn pushed back album. PERIOD. First of all she cant back it up, she is absolutely not the total package, rihanna, beyonce are more prettier than her, from head to toes, ciara dance and perform way better than her, beyonce dance and sing better than her even in her worst day, no need to compare, destiny’s child was hot when their first official single came out, beyonce was hot when her first official single came out, with or without destiny’s chid she is a phuckin star, born with greatness. PERIOD. If she wasnt all that, without DC she wouldve failed as a solo act and not beat the solo females bein there way before her. Let’s give props were its due and not comparin those two.Beyoncé was there way before Keri so of course has more experience so its an unfair comparison. Keri needed lil wayne, kanye and neyo and a diss track to be hot, lets face it, her two first singles went nowhere. I have nothin agaisnt her but please leave the beyonce vs keri sh!t cuz u neither keri can back it up, even in songwritin, beyonce is the first black african american writer to win song writer of the year and that was 8 years ago before u knew a keri hilson existed, even insongwritin she is beaten so pppppppppppppllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaassssssseeee!!
Right now, in the game, she is hot too Im happy for her, but lets recognize that she is not all that. Wish both the best.
For your info, I am sasha fierce which is quality music, not only réb proved why she is the queen, he can sing everything and her songs are amazing, I can actually listen to it from track one to the end so please, is at 4.400.000 to this date and released in november, about to outsell b’day which sold 6.128.000. copies (for two albums who are not hot, I dont know!). Not many artists can sell better than their previous and know that its only the end that counts, not the first week sell, lil sold one million units the first week but i stuck @ 3 milli albums so please. She needs to have some babies? Does Janet & Mariah have some babies? Does Keri herself have some babies? She is 26 & B is 27? When was the time Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Diana Ross, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Aretha? In their late 30′s pushin 40′s or dont even have so please stop with that! Is Beyonce such a threat for you to want her goin away? hahaha, so weak!
On the pix, she looks a mess as usual! Needs a new stylist and hair style!!! Pretty though
I dont like the jheri curl look from the 80′s when ready for the world wore their hair like this. I liked her warp haristyle that she use to wear. I think shes talented though.
she is a cold mess!
#72 girlllll, you are absolutely right
from start to finish, you were on point. these haters care more about people they claim to hate more than their stans do. no Beyonce fan came on here until her haters had something negative to say. they can’t keep Queen Bee’s name outta their mouths because she is the ONE! no one else out right now can outshine her and that’s exactly what Keri’s problem is. she knows Beyonce is the reigning diva and for her to ever succeed, Beyonce will have to retire…..for good!
…..performing at Japan, lol…Beyonce’s been there and done that. Keri shouldn’t have gone i mean after watching Beyonce perform, the Japanese will probably think Keri’s just a joke, which she is. she’s an arrogant, rude, conceited and proud joke. i dislike people who think they can talk about everyone else to make themselves look better, she’s always talking sly about other artists, watch/ read her interviews and you’ll see what i’m talking about.

@75
Beyonce stan shut up! Yall don’t do nothing but stir up trouble. The Beyonce stans lurk every post so they can come and say some sh*t.
Beyonce I Am album is still garbage no matter what only children and young adults by her music anyways. Y’all beyonce stans kill me always like to look down on other artists to make beyonce look good. Y’all be on other artists post not only keri, but ciara and rihanna post bringing up beyonce name and so forth. Beyonce aint my damn queen and you can’t get mad about it. I love Keri Hilson she’s cool in my book most of y’all claim you don’t like her but why are you on her post then. Keri has fans too just like beyonce, but we’re not stans though lol. I really think y’all beyonce stans are insecure. I tire of y’all trying to bring down other artists to make her look good. And I guess “Diva” and “single ladies” suppose to be a masterpiece get out of here with that s***, beyonce is not improving as an artist with the same tire ass videos!! Y’all also delusional beyonce be looking a mess from head to toe a lot of times, but y’all be like oh she looks so beautiful when you know she looks a mess, be real with yourself. At lease Keri don’t wear mess up lace fronts all the time. And y’all still trippin’ about a song (she really didn’t mention any names) I hope y’all are children, if beyonce aint worried about it so shouldn’t you. Plus, Keri a grown ass woman she can say what she wants, maybe she don’t like beyonce that’s her personal opinion. Alot of people don’t like fake a** wanna be white girl beyonce. Plus, do y’all stans remember when beyonce wrote a little song call survivor talking about her other band mates…think about it. She didn’t say any names, but everybody knew who she was talking about though. So, she have diss people also!
EW! Keri looks a hot a** mess. Every time I see this chick her makeup is either slimy or cakey! She looks nasty. And that hair… LOL at the person who said that she has Ramen Noodle hair! OMG you crazy. It’s different but it looks stupid. I also gotta co-sign with everyone who says she has on an Aladdin outift! LMMAO! Some of y’all on here are so real and too funny! I will admit that she has gone far in the industry as a songwriter… but that’s exactly where she needs to stay. This singing thing is not her niche. Nobody is really checking for her. She’s only had one song that’s done good in a few other countries and that’s “Knock You Down.”
@72
#79 is for you.

Used to like Keri when she first came out, can’t stand her now.
Seems to conceited to me, yeah she was fierce in the writing game but as a singing artist she’s still new.
@ wtf
I KNOW THIS B*TCH DIDN’T JUST CALL BEY STANS OUT WHEN PEOPLE LIKE HIM/HER STAN FOR RIHANNA ALL DAY EVERYDAY
YOU WENT ON BEYONCE’S POST JUST MINUTES AGO HATING HARD AND NOW YOU COME ON HERE TALKING ABOUT HOW WE CAUSE TROUBLE
YOU’RE A DAMN HYPOCRITE.
KERI GOT RUDE TO THE QUEEN AND SHE DESERVES TO BE CALLED OUT. SHE AND HER STANS ARE SCARED AS HELL OF BEYONCE AND HER
SUCCESS, I MEAN YOUR IDOL COULDN’T EVEN ADMIT IT WHEN SHE WAS CAUGHT, SHE STARTED TALKING LIKE A DAMN FOOL TO HIDE THE FACT SHE WENT HARD ON BEYONCE. IF I AM SASHA FIERCE IS A TERRIBLE ALBUM (DESPITE IT BEING DOUBLE-PLATINUM), THEN KERI’S CANNOT BE CLASSIFIED AS AN ALBUM BECAUSE IT HASNT GAINED HALF AS MUCH RECOGNITION AS BEYONCE’S. LMAO @ YOU FOOLISH STAN, YOU JUST MADE KERI LOOK WORSE THAN SHE ALREADY DOES.
AND CAUSE SHE’S GOT BLONDE HAIR, SHE’S TRYNNA BE WHITE? LOL…THAT WAS DUMB AS HELL. BTW, YOUR ENGLISH IS QUITE POOR LOVE, YOU MIGHT WANNA WORK ON THAT BEFORE COMMENTING AGAIN
RIHANNA STANS MENTION QUEEN BEE’S NAME LIKE SHE’S ON THEIR B*TCH’S LEVEL GTFOH WITH ALL THAT CRAP
LEAVE BEYONCE’S NAME OUTTA YOUR MOUTHS
WE DONT NEED TO LOOK DOWN ON OTHERS, THEY DISGRACE THEMSELVES WITHOUT OUR HELP AND BEYONCE’S SUCCESS OVERSHADOWS EVERYTHING THEY DO SO IT’S REALLY NOT OUR FAULT YOU SEE LMAO
Anybody who writes essays or reports on why they don’t like a person is a hater. Get over it, take that energy and think of something positive to say.
She looks like Aladdin
@85.
EXACTLY – whole short essays full of opinions and “facts” on someone you cannot stand. I generally try to NOT learn shit about someone I don’t like. You will never see me Google “Jim Jones” or the like. I can SEE he doesn’t bathe… I don’t need to know much more than that.
["Quote: This woman is at least 35. Keri cut the sh!t."]
This is the closest to the truth I have come within the nearly 90 posts in this thread. She is clearly hovering over the 30 + mark. And these hair/costume choices are not making it any less noticeable.
damn i cant even come to a post about ANY female R&B singer with out seein beyonce’s ane anymore. SMH
love keri, hate the outfit.
its funny how people are hatin on her and only usin ONE performance (BET Awards) to justify she can;t sing live. all artists have their bad days. im rooting for this girl, i’d like to see her progress as time goes on.
@84.
B*tch how old are you? Girl I bet you don’t put that much effort in your school work. You talking about somebody stan for Rihanna! WTF why is that the first name that come up with you Beyonce stans? Get over her! I stan for Keri 24/7. You stans so threatened by Keri cuz she can sing and write songs. Nobody even cares for Beyonce 33 year old ass but yall.
they have that vest Keri is wearing @ SnootyGirlBoutique.com you can buy it now!
@84.
LOL @ you. Beyonce stans in my opinion are the craziest. Google craziest stans and you’ll see some pages on there and on one site it’s a toss up between Mary J and Beyonce.
LMAO @72 and the person that read it and responded. There should be no reason yall making essay’s like that. Please keep that just in case you need to say it again. lol
outfit is awful and keri is sooooo corny … she’s doesn’t look good in clothes and has no style, she needs a stylist to help her find herself
she can’t sing period, her performance level is sub par, too bad the industry is filled with so many keri’s bring the 90′s back any day now !!!!!
She dresses like crap. Get out of the music industry, you talentless Cuntson.
btw look at y’all comparing her to Beyonce. lmfao! she will never be near her level with that wack R&B music, tacky way of dress and terrible dancing and singing. Beyonce is the Queen Bee Of Pop, was named Seventeen Style Star of The Year, gathered up 5 #1 songs and is named the top selling female artist of the decade, has one of the best voice and had won more than 10 Grammys. Can Keri Cuntson beat that? no.
She is simply overrated, she cannot sing, she has a fat nose, can’t dance, and is NOT Michael Jackson. Time to retire them gloves babe, you looked a mess at the BET awards.
She needs an img consultant because she doesn’t know what style she wants to portray nor does she give off the right “energy” for me.
She’s not all that she’s cracked up to be.. Period.
Compared to Beyonce or not,
“Miss Keri Baby” is a “rising icon” because of her image. Rebellious?
Not working for me sweetheart.
Je regrette :[
@ youdigmypersona
I agree with you. This bitch sucks.
She’s not overrated at all. Hell i think she’s UNDERrated if u ask me. People hardly talk about her(good or bad) and Bey, CiCi, and Rihanna are constently mentioned in her posts. It’s like whenever she’s brought up, she only get 2 secs of shine until another female’s name is brought up(usually Bey). Not a fan or hater but that must SUCK. oh well, she brought it upon herself to diss other divas in the game. Something i wouldn’t have done if i was in her position. She doesn’t have #1 song or album. her album’s not even certified yet.
Only BET will name her a “rising icon”. who are the other contenders? Flo-Rida? Jeremiah(sp)? Soulja Boy? LOL
@ a&e girl
exactly! she brought all the hate upon herself, she had no right dissing others that where way ahead of her. i like her but she needs to relax and stop acting like she’s better than everyone else
Now I know that Keri ain’t no 26. Keri stop it. And she can not sing I like knock you down because of Neyo. Neyo made that song a hit. And this song with R.Kelly has been out before, but it still sounds great even though Keri doen’t have any vocals. But plenty of these so called songstres don’t have any vocals. It’s easier to name the ones that do rather than the ones that don’t.
Do your thing Keri girl!!!
She look old azzz hell…she betta enjoy it while she can.
why is she dressed like an african american alladin??
ummmm…she gets on my last nerves!
and for those of you who didnt knw yes ..hammer pants are back in !!! they been in!! hatin so DM much ..dont evn knw whts in style !!
I just don’t like her style of singing. Is anyone out there original anymore? Where are the real singers? All of these songs today are “throwaways.” Nothing’s worth keeping anymore; it just takes up space.
she looks soooo different than her magazine photos. Wow! Her skin is rough, and she looks 10-15 years older.
Oh, I thought she wrote kNock you Down. That’s all she was getttin props for from me. It was actually a team of 6 that she was a part of.
All of them are over-rated. Keri, Beyonce, Ciara, Rihanna. Beyonce has some talent, but not as much as she gets credit for. She’s basically a good entertainer. But “her” songs and image are raunchy and send a message of evil and loose morals. Ciara can dance. BUt why is she one of the top names in music? Shouldn’t she be a top choreographer? I couldn’t believe when I saw Keri on BET awards… THIS is what all the hype is for? True everyone has a bad day, but that was a compete mess. Rihanna has no talent in music, in any arena. None of these people are icons.
For mainstream, even Keisha Cole is better than all the above. At least she can sing, with soul. She is barely referenced in media.
Why are the talented musicians not seen? Why are we being force-fed this crap like it’s good????
I LOVE her look!
Oh, and it seems like whenever they post Keri’s age she gets younger and younger…hmmm?
IM CLOSING DE GAIL IS DAM HOT!I MIN DE GAIL HS
