TV BIT: BRANDY & RAY J’S NEW VH1 SERIES “FAMILY BUSINESS”

Wednesday, February 3, 2010

After 2 successful seasons of “For The Love of Ray J”, singer/TV personality, Ray J is back with a new series on VH1 and this time he is bringing the whole family along. Check out the synopsis:

Siblings Brandy and Ray J Norwood are famous for their incredible vocal talent on the stage and screen. But they wouldn’t be anywhere without the support and guidance of their parents – entertainment manager and mom, Sonja and talented musical father, Willie Norwood. Viewers will get a first hand glimpse into the lives of the Norwood family unit and their family business – Rn’B Productions. Run by Sonja, Rn’B Productions features an impressive roster of musical artists including Brandy, Ray J and their father Willie, who also serves as the company’s vocal coach. But with Sonja ready to take a step down, Brandy and Ray J will have to fill her shoes quickly all the while taking the family business to the next level. Will they have what it takes to continue to stay in the limelight while growing an entertainment empire?

And don’t worry if you didn’t read all of that. I was distracted by Brandy’s eyebrows as well. Overall it’s a nice family portrait though. If you’re interested, the show premieres on VH1 Sunday, April 11 at 9.

I’m not sure I really want to see this. Ray J is disgusting. I just heard his song the other day called “P*ssy Fight”. I mean, come on, you mean to tell me his family is behind those kind of antics? I think he’s an embarrassment to the rest of them.

lol Angel got jokes. The eyebrows or that lacefront that comes down to them.

Im enjoying Fantasia’s new show, so I dont see what will be wrong with this one. Will the Kardashians make an appearance? It’ll only be right if she does

I’ll pass. I love Brandy. I wish she would do her own thing (like she used to) instead of trying to be in Ray J’s very dim spotlight. Brandy you are way bigger than him, you don’t need to latch on to his projects!

Wednesday, February 3, 2010 /

@16 - Thats not extended with photoshop thats extended with a Brown eye liner pencil or brush….

1. Eyebrows are not cute… Fire the Make up Artist who did that
2. LaceFront Wig + Baby Hair not cute
3. Ray J is growing on me… Short but still growing on me

Not sure Im going to like the show, his parents seem boring… No where near the Drama of Fantisia or Keysha Cole Family…lol… If Im going to watch smut TV I need some hot burnt ghetto drama… Im just saying.

—This show will be very interesting if for no other reason than, it will give the parents
—a chance to expose themselves. As debased and morally bankrupt as both of their
—children are, it’s clear that the parents sold their childrens’ souls for riches and
—”fame” in the entertainment industry. Brandy is a l*sbian Scientologist and Ray J
—is an idiotic b*sexual who gets television and movie projects greenlighted when he
—has never been associated with anything successful. It’s clear that they have
—connections. The butterfly tattoo on Brandy’s back marks her as MK-ULTRA. Their
—parents are no better than Joe Jackson.

Lol .. I don’t think I’ll be tuning into this.

And the baby hairs?
People still do that?

My baby hairs are very noticeable but I do not gel them down or anything like that - that’s so 2005/2006.

Oh and wow at the resemblance, Brandy looks like her mom - skin tone and all and Ray J looks like his dad - skin tone and all .. never took that in before.

35.

oh brandy...

Wednesday, February 3, 2010 /

This picture is sooooo old lol.. Like 5+ years old.. Everybody knows Brandy’s eyebrows are done by damone and they are basically always on point… I think the way they used the pencil makes them look “off” here..

Angel you been so messy lately.. That’s not cute hunny.. Like that comment you made about Robin givens on another post, and various posts in the past week. You reachin for that mediatakeout audience sis? You need to realize why your readers actually come to this site and respect you. And that’s real tea sweetie

All these bitches in the industry with lacefronts and baby hair, yet yall will rip into brandy like she worst to ever do it. Now i can’t defend the eyebrows. They are a bit extreme. But overall its a cute family pic. And whats with all the shade CL is throwing at folks all of a sudden. If I wanted that i could just go to bossip or MTO. Yall are suppose to be above that. Please don’t go that route. yall have the best graphics, the best quality pics and the most accurate articles. Yall are in a different class. Don’t change.

I am tired of reality shows, but it is what it is. Reality shows is what’s helping people promote themselves better right now. Some times you have to compromise and adapt to the times. I think Brandy could use this show is in a positive way just like Monica has. I hope this show won’t be trashy, Brandy is above that.

Anyway I have noticed people barely comment on this blog anymore including myself and I can see why It’s the same old, same old. Obnoxious rude comments and the same overexposed faces flooding the site because of their publicists. This blog needs personality instead of just posting pics, and I can see Angel is desperately trying to give this blog some personality with her catty comments but they just come across tacky and rude instead of insightful and funny. To talk about Brandy’s eye brows was uncalled for. There was another comment I saw posted by the owner a few months ago that I also thought was rude but I forgot who the celeb was. Anyway I doubt I will ever be back here. I agree with comment #58. This blog has fallen off hard. The motto needs to be reversed to Quantity Not Quality.

I love Brandy! I hate that the focus is on those brows, but damn, sometimes the makeup artists just f*cks up! Anywho, I dont understand why she wants to do this show with her family. I mean for me anything associated with Ray J has little credit. i feel like if she wanted her own show minus Ray J people would be more optimistic about it, she can carry it on her own. I mean if Fantasia can have her own show and be a success and she isnt nearly as popular as Brandy was/is then B can def do it on her own. I dunno i will tune in
