HOT OR NOT: VICTORIA’S ROWELL’S OBAMA DRESS
Didn’t even watch the Emmy’s last night, but while looking for photos I came across some pictures of Actress Victoria Rowell’s Obama dress. No one knows the designer, but the 50 year-old star was the talk of the red carpet on Sunday night getting mostly negative comments on how tacky it looked. What’s your take? Hot or Not?

well since the obama hype is over…this is so 2008…timejump
She can do better than this. I agree with #1. Move on!!!!!!!!!!
BRAPPPP!!! Ghana all the way!
No it looks ok but hey she wants to show off her heritage she mite be Ghanaian, as the symbols are ghanaian and the akwaaba means welcome.
of course white ppl who run the awards do not know african fashion so tacky will come to mind. she looks confident enough to show it off and obviously she is still supporting obama.
With love <3
OK..wth…this looks ridiculious…I dont get it..I love my prez too but….NO
maybe for a cultural event but not for the Emmy’s.
Fashion is african, i know bcos im a nigerian.its lovely she looks like a nubian queen.obama for life.
I agree with No. 3 and 6. In Africa, we “draw” our leaders faces on Fabric and make clothing out of it. To those who are non-africans it would obviously look tacky. But that’s our heritage and we love it. These type of African fashion is normally worn at special events. I would’ve thrown in a head scarf as well. She looks beautiful.
THAT SHIT IS A FUKN MESS! IM SORRY IM DOWN FOR MY BLACK PRESIDENT IN ALL, BUT THE DRESS IS JUST PLAIN OL’ UGLY. AND THATS DUMB AS HELL Y WOULD U WEAR THAT LIKE WHR WAS SHE GOING? TACKYYY!
She is hot ….the dress is not!!!!!!!!!!
THAT SHIT IS A FUKN MESS! DONT GET ME WRONG IM DOWN FOR MY BLACK PRESIDENT AND ALL, BUT THE DRESS IS JUST PLAIN OL’ UGLY! AND THATS TACKY Y WOULD SHE WEAR THAT LIKE WHERE WAS SHE GOING?
I lke the dress but not for the Emmy’s. Like she could’ve worn this to the MTV awards, or the Kids Choice awards..which are more casual events. The Emmys and Grammys are more classy and glamorous. The real question is why does she always look like she’s about to burst into tears. Hasn’t she heard of concealer?
fail this shit is a hot mess and whats up with her face,
I saw many hot sexy photos and videos on ****_http://tinyurl.com/nvmulw**^^^^! It’s a 100% free dating site! Many hot sexy big boobed beauties, big booty hotties and big handsome guys like to mingle there for fun and romance! What kind of relationship to you want to establish there?
fashion fail!!
it is tacky
Am proud to know someone really appreciate african fabrics. I think there are a lot of styles she could have picked this in. All the same she looks natural and beautiful.
It looks like she going to some backwoods pagent in this thing. No wonder I didnt see her in this getup at all.
she should have worn an nkrumah one… 100 years since his birth!
etisen every ghanaian concreteloop user!
boko!!!!!!!!!!!
She looks stupid
Kinda OTT, if it didn’t have Obama all over it and just a design instead then it would have been ok and more relavant to the time…..
Definitely not hot ….why do her eyes look like that??!?
#3 & 18
what’s up!!
Definitely a Ghanaian print, but I do think the dress could have been made SOOOOO much better than this frumpy ass thing. the style is a yawn, the print has been worn by so many other people, so I hope she didnt think she was rocking something new.
I LOVE VICTORIAS’ DRESS PERFECTION
GIRL PLEASE, WHY IS YOU WEARING THAT DRESS TO THE EMMY’S. HELL WE ALREADY GOT HIM IN OFFICE . HER DRESS LOOKS TACKY . BUT SHOUT OUT TO PRESIDENT OBAMA
Well as an African (Nigerian) you already know I love the print lol (shout out to the Ghananians!!!!) but I feel she should have sewed it better, the way she sewed it I can wear it around the house….hm at least she wore ankara…but she didn’t rock it though =(
This woman is 50…… OMG that is what i want to be when i grow up…
The material is awsome and very african…but the style of the dress could of been better… this looks like she just wrapped herself in the material with a couple of safety pins…LOL
SMH. It’s because it don’t fit into what is acceptable that people want to call it ‘tacky’. She reppin, it’s all good. Big up my Ghanian massive!!
*Ghanaian
REPRESENTING PEOPLE FROM GHANA!!
MO WO HE?
YE KO YE NIM!!!!!!
I appreciate her tapping into the culture but something is off with they styling or maybe it’s that she has so many pictures all over it. I dunno.
the dress itself and the fact she’s repping ghana is fine….but why is obama’s face plastered over the dress? i will never understand the extreme degree of how fanatical people are being. i’m not against obama, but this is getting out of hand. he’s in office…got it? HE’S IN OFFICE…no longer campaigning lol.
She could have just worn a Obama button. the dress looks like her designer went to a fabric shop the night before and threw something together. it is tacky
She should have save that for the BET awards. I love victoria but for the red carpet thats a little bit out of place. For me that dress is off base. Maybe she should wear it to one of those tea parties. She could maybe wear it to the white house. Or maybe the first lady could wear it to bed as a night gown. But the red carpet. Or maybe she could just wrap it up and send it as a gift to ex President Bush in he can give it to his wife as a gift, she did say she love the OBAMA’S or was that a lie. lmao
She’s free to wear whatever the heck she wants to wear!
She was representing….cool I dig lol
she’ll be alright now she knows not to pull that shit off again
def not cute! wtf was she thinking? did she do this herself. looks like she bought an obama scarf at the dollar store and wrapped it around her.
i would be embarrassed if i were barack. they are stamping his face on everything.
if she were going to do something to show praise and admiration toward barack at least be creative.
angel, the designer is unknown because THERE IS NO DESIGNER. it was a do it yourself item:)
lol ,,, when she bringing her ass back to y&r …. i miss her quazy azz….lol
didnt she just git married?…. i guess this is as close as she will ever git to him lolol
Not
OMG she is 50!!!!??? Whoa, I hope I look that amazing when I am 50. I’ll give her a pass on the ugly dress just for that reason alone.
I love the Adinkra symbols!! Ghana!! people take note, Sankofa!!
I am sooo LOL!!!! Man i’m embarrassed for her!!
The dress looks so cheesy and tacky though! Like they couldn’t come up with a better looking design at least? That was catastophic and too be a star and talked about negatively at an event as huge as the Emmy’s by other stars is like…smh.. F*cked up!..lmao! I know she couldnt wait for the night to end!
I love the gye nyame on her dress! Except God! Ghanaian culture is assimilating into popular culture. How brave of her and what a statement! People please learn where you come from!
I agree with a previous comment, she should have saved this for the BET awards. She looks utterly ridiculous!! You got your president and he has been in office for 9 months, move on honey! That dress looks so cheap and tacky, poor thing.
Don’t hate. You all know that if you looked that good at 50 (plastic surgery or not), you’d say nothing but good things.
While I appreciate the Obama love, I think this particular awards show may not have been the best venue to showcase it’s originality.
On the plus side, she is still tastefully covered up, and, if anything, at least people are talking about her.
BEAU TI FUL woman….HORRIBLE dress!!!
LOL @ HER SPINNING AROUND AND CHEESING LIKE SHE KNEW SHE WAS THE SHIT THAT NIGHT LOL
SHE STILL FINE AS HELL FOR 50, BUT NO.
@@ 44:
WELL, MAYBE THE BET AWARDS LAST DAMN YEAR!!!!!!!!
Ghana Represent!!!!!!
I do love the color/ and print of the fabric, but i must admit not really feeling the style of her dress..
@18…bokoo
that dress is a mess
On the fence about the dress, I appreciate what she’s doing but it does look a little idk?
But on a good note girl looks banging, I had no idea she was 50 looking good.
why….just WHY….
First of all this chick is 50 and looks hot to death so stop the hating.
Second of all…she is at the Emmy’s at not us so she can wear what she wants! Ive been taught that if they are saying good things about you cool..if they are saying bad things cool…at least they are talking about you …which is a little bit more than we can say about most of us looking at Concreteloop instead of actually attending the events.
Thirdly, President Obama is NOT 2008…he is timeless. So now that the “hype” is over we shoudl stop rocking for President Obama? I think not…we need to rep harder than ever! I was rocking my Pres Obama earrings the day after his address to the Senate….and Im gonna rock them to the grave.
I love her confidence to step outside the norm. Do your thing Mama!
STOP KNOCKING Victoria, this is actually very popular in Nigeria, Africa. we make just type of materials and wear them, i say KUDOS to her.
Big ups to the Ghanaian concrteloop users…Ye ko ye nim…lol..Gh in december anyone??
Although I love her, this is a fashion fail because she could have done much better with the print. I applaud her risk taking though!!
Yh Yh Wu hufe me dase kraaa
@55
yh im goin to GH in december till the new yr!! u??
What’s up with black american people??? do you guys not like yourselves? What is African is inferior? Gucci and Prada feel closer to home? You want WEAVES and everything european to feel ok. Decolonising the mind!
Girlfriend really thing she did something wrapping herself up in an left over Obama campaign banner.
I love Drucilla Winters! LOL But not this tacky dress! NEXT….
BRAVO # 57… some of our people can be sooooo lost it’s called POST SLAVERY SYNDROME !!!!
tisk tisk….
