I cant wait!!!! Yes Foxy!!!!
I read somewhere that Rick Ross got nominated. This sh!t is bogus.
P.S. Foxy Brown and her friends’ are doing it big. Pun intended.
Ashanti look nice, the woman with DMX looks nice, love Chrisette Michelle’s music
Ummm, DMX is separated (not divorced) from him wife…I think it’s a little disrespectful to bring another chick on the carpet.
On another note, I can’t wait to see the show…Still trying to figure out how Teddy Riley and Missy has been honored when they haven’t honored Heavy D or Scarface.
No Ashanti, try a again. A little too late to try switch up your style. You will forever be corny.
Foxy looks a mess! Hood Rat!
Get em Mary!!
was jus playin some foxy yday maaaaaaaaaaaan
bout time
Trey is so freaking HAWT!!!! I love that man. Can’t wait to see him in concert…LOL : )…
Foxy looks foolish with them ghetto halloween lashes
Method can DEFINITELY get it…Thats a fine man!
Ashanti stop TRYING so HARD to be Rihanna!
Omg these girls today stay following the LEADER.
Rihanna is the queen of Avant-Garde. Ashanti looks so OFF with these trends on trying to be edgy. They all follow Rihanna and Ashanti is much older and you can see it. Can’t blame her I guess. LOL
And Trey Songz please get a new look! I’m so sick of him rocking that vest and those same grey pants. He’s so boring looking. His look reflects his music…TOTALLY unoriginal!
This is so OLD School. I wish younger artists were present this is so 90′s.
It’s 2010 almost. Where is DRAKE, NEW BOYZ,Lil Wayne and them???
YAWN.
wack!
love you trey
foxy needs to relax with the breast implants
Ashanti, Eve, and Mary look GREAT
SERIOUSLY KID ROCK, WELL IF SNOOP AND BOBBY BROWN CAN GO COUNTRY, WELL COUNTRY CAME FROM THE BLUES, SO HE’S STILL BITING, DEMON SEED.
ashanti and her sister look tacky and her sister need to stop wearing sleeveless shirt with those big ass arms
@ How can Rick Ross get nominated for something when this isn’t an award show? Maybe you are thinking about the BET Hip Hop Awards show.
DMX and his wife are no more! They can date whomever they want.
As for the pics…um, okay. Ashanti and Foxy – you two failed big time. The only good I see is that Mary and Meth will be performing. Yes!
Foxxy wow she really brought the girls out! Cant wait to see this. Ashanti, umm Im not sure this look fits her, but she tried. Man cant wait to see DMX, Em, Mary and the rest rip it.

Ashanti needs to lose the hair and glassed in the pick with the gray dress…I think the dress and boots are cute….she just should’ve wore her hair long and straight….or in a cute ponytail or something cause I hate that hair-do….
Ashanti looks gud u a lie. Damned she anit. Trying to be riri. Y’all yget off tht
*glasses*
DMX!! Awww
@#8… Why should they be present? Its an HONORS show..duhhhhh! New Boys & Drake haven’t done anything to be honored yet. Get it together. If you wanna see them, watch 106 & Park and call it a day
Method Man mmmmmmmmm Still looking good.
Ashanti is the only one thy is good
Yeah I agree w/#22.. She looks good and she’s not trying to be like Rihanna. goddamn
And does anyone read anymore??… this is NOT the Hip-Hop awards!
It’s the VH-1 HONORS
I ain’t seen them Onyx boys for ages!
I am sick and tired of seeing women with their breasts hanging out. It isn’t cute. It looks trashy. You can still look sexy without your bits exposed. *note to Foxy*
I can’t tell you how much of this I see on a daily basis. There is a time and place for this look (the club mainly or the street corner…lol). I can’t believe how many women walk around looking like this in the day time. What kills me is that they actually work in a professional environment. I’m embarrassed for them. One good thing that came out of it is that I am even more reserved in my dress. I don’t wear anything that shows cleavage to work. I work with mostly men and I’m not there for dates. These chics are sending the wrong message.
Ashanti dam u look gud i see u n the gym cant wait til album drop sexi a
rihanna stans need to stfu
not everyone’s trynna be her. she didnt invent anything so cut the bs
and i know u aint caliing people out for copying her when she’s swagger-jacked almost every female in the game too. she’s far from original.
Ashanti looks good!
Dang read the post y’all. This isn’t the BET Hip Hop Awards, it’s VH1′s Hip-Hop honors. LMAOOO
Eve is gorgeous! Loving the look.
Ashanti is a big snooooze!! Where is Nelly????
Anywayz maybe this show will help her fading music career!!!!
Ashanti I love her so pretty so nice n stay wit a pretties smile. Sold40million dam in yall say she can’t sing yell just hate
awwww So nice to see DMX…i used to love him
Ashanti has no riri. Style learn things girls just cause u bit style ashanti has her own girls enter hate sorr.
a couple of those outfits are tardy for the party
Mary looks nice and simple as usual.
Method Man is a nice looking man and I like his fit BUT………………..the middle fingers up pose????? So not necessary – FAIL!!!
WHO THE HECK Is all these people?!?!?!? Never seen or heard of them before Except for Mary && Luda.
Yes Trey! Giving everything I need.
@33 say it again! Where was Rihanna? At least Ashanti showed up and performed. Something Rihanna sure would not have done. No lip syncing here! Mary J stays fresh, that woman can sing the alphabets and make it soulful, she’s real talent.. Even old crazy looking Foxy showed and performed..
where are you fools getting your info? ashanti has only sold a little over 15 million albums worldwide. while that is still an accomplishment, you are on serious drugs if you really thing she sold over 30 million albums. now mary j blige has sold that much, but ashanti? no
trey baby you are soooooooooooooo friggin sexxxxxxxyyyyyyy!!
I will be watching and recording on DVR! I miss true hip hop!
ROFLMAO @ #25, 29 & 34..For real! LOL!
EVE HAS PIMPLEASE ON HER FACE AND LOOKS LIKE SHE GAINED SOME WEIGHT.FOXY GAINED A LOT OF WEIGHT… THAT WHOLE EVENT LOOKS LIKE IT SMELT LIKE MALT LIQUOR AND STALE BACKWOODS…LMAOOOO EVERYONE LOOKS HIGH
I echo another poster, WHERE THE HELL IS HEAVY D? How come he hasn’t been honored? And there are a host of other folks who should be honored as well!
*PIMPLES
ASHANTI LOOKS REAL NICE. SO I DNT KNW Y EVERYONE HATING AND SAYIN SHE DNT. I LOVE DAT HAIRSTYLE!!
It looks like it’s gonna be a hot ass show! I can’t wait! Meth and Mary?! I”m so excited lol
Who is DMX’s guest?
Faboulous your a mess!
YES, Foxy.. yees
SHANTI LOOKS NICE TO ME
Lol @ #39 Pauze
Meth looks good & Trey your a bit to young for me but love the man up look on you
Foxy ummm no come back & try again please (surly you can do better)
DMX hope things work for the best in the end for you &n yours (your missed)
ashanti lost weight but she needs to get her wide sister on the bandwagon
why is she trying to be stylish now? but she FAILS. too much going on.
everyone looks good (meaning, they look like the showered) before coming to the show.
why is kid rock there?
eve will always be ugly to me. she is so not cute.
CAN’T WAIT THE SHOW LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE GOOD. ASHANTI LOOKS GOOD, AND HER VOICE HAS GOTTEN SO MUCH BETTER. RICK ROSS ALL I CAN SAY IS WTF…
hip hop is a big azz joke. why even have an award show for these clowns? where are q tip, mos def and other worth listening to rap artists. im glad lil kim wasnt there or even performed.
foxy is a damn clown. no one wants to see ur dirty breasts.
where is ll and queen latifah? if they were trying to bring it back have ll perform doin it or hey lovers with boyz 2 men and queen do unity or something.
Ashanti is OLD.
Rihanna is our age and she is Fashion FORWARD.
Ashanti knows she “tried” to jack Rihanna’s Avant-Garde look but it did not quite work. SORRY!
Rihanna is really the most stylist artist PERIOD! Ashanti is washed up and sorry she is not relevant and will flop harder than Brandy’s last cd did.
Ooooh Baby…Awe Baby is not singing and Jah Rule? PLEASE!
IT’s 2009 get it right. Jay-Z and Rihanna run this town!
Queen Rihanna. Learn her!
I wonder how they decide who will be honored. I think they should honor Queen latifah or did they already and i just missed it?. Im a old head but everybody knows Queen is doing her thing shes well rounded.
Don’t know what it is about him but I just LOVE Method Man!
Love Fabolous + Travis McCoy as well!
