Are You Feelin This Get Up??

Posted by Bossip Staff

Tonex BET Gospel

Tonex showed up to the BET Celebration of Gospel the other night wearing an interesting ensemble. Black and white checkered hat, sleeveless shirt, houndstooth arm warmers, and plaid capri pants topped off with a fat gold chain and a fuzzy scarf wrapped across his body…

  9. Tinkerbella

    Boots looks so out of place. Who invited her? She dresses like shes attempting to look mature and presentable, but it doesnt work for her.

  10. Keepin' It Real (D'Original)

    She has no home training, Hoodrat…

  25. Lauren

    @ Lady Arch….doesn’t Yolanda look beautiful?

  26. Lauren

    Judge Maybelline look a little rough around the edges, SMH….

  27. DANG!

    I don’t know what Tonex is thinking when he walks out the house looking the way he does! Was I the only one who saw that fake mohawk he sported on an episode of “Sunday Best”? Can we say hot mess! Why is he biting his lip in that close up pic…I just don’t know.

  28. PrettyMissSunshine

    Bootz, you were just in a bikini looking a bonifide mess and Fabolous’s video now you at the Gospel awards, hell if she was there where was superhead?

  29. omni101

    the reason he’s wearing that mess is because now a days Gospel musicians are no different from the worldly musicians, he doesn’t feel out of place cause the standards are low and no one will pull the brother aside and tell him its inappropriate to wear such mess in the Glorification of God. oooops who said anything about God being there anyway?

  30. Bonnie

    Ignorance shows itself in many forms and he looks like a fool…

  31. TallAsEver

    BOOTZ, I got you!!!!

    I hear a lot of JUDGEMENTS going around. Hold up… I don’t know why ya’ll buggin. Knowing that some of ya’ll heathens were whoring on Saturday night and in a pew on Sunday morning!!!!!

  32. Guilty Pleasure

    Hmm, where was “Barbara Jones”……..oops…I meant Bobby Jones……..LOL

  33. Lisa

    He is a cuttie. He is also a playboy. I saw his profile on millionaire&celeb dating site CelebMingle.com last week.

    It is said he is only interested in dating young beautiful girls on that site

  34. PRTTYBRWNGIRL

    HE LOOKS LIKE AN EVEN FRUTIER VERSION OF WILL.I.AM

  35. JusWondering

  47. ***** Chestnut

    Maya Angelou WAS a hoe. Back in the day she worked the track in Detroit. Some of her clients include: Frederick Douglas, W.C. Handy, Bill Cosby, Abraham Lincoln, Carl Lewis, Ted Lange, Barbara Walters, Nick Cannon, Das EFX and Mike Tyson. She has since turned her life around to become a positive role model for young women.

  62. baby

    ok…jesse jackson dropped a lemon starburst by ananda’s foot, so she could bend down and he could pinch that booty…look at him, just waiting…smh…

  63. Marcy

    Would this lady I mean man excuse me come out and say hes gay please!!!

  64. Keepin' It Real (D'Original)

    @TallAsEver – You’re right, I’m one of them… I’m guilty :-( But I’m not as bad as I used to be… I be in the pews with my head falling forward real quick, I be pinching my self and it don’t be working – Got any advice for me?

    @Lauren – You know when Bootz walked by, women were looking at their husbands, like “ni@@a if you stare I will cut you”…

  65. I'm'a drop a dime on that n*gga right there

    for all you broads that stay posting pics of your kids, 1) it’s wrong 2) they can be cropped and used for other foolishness by other people 3) you don’t have their consent to post them online 4) don’t no body want to see them 5) you’re exploting them .. general rules of the internet is to NOT POST ANYONES PICTURE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 unless the parent is a dummy and has consented

  66. peezy

    Jesus take the wheel (remix)


  67. I kinda like the fact that Yolanda and Kirk dressed down. I feel like the black church community in general is too caught up on appearances. So many church services are becoming fashion shows. I’m also LOVING the fact that the ladies are wearing pants. I am an avid slacks wearer on Sunday morning! :-)

    On the other hand, Jesse Jackson DOES look like he dropped some candy to get a peak at that girl’s butt.

    Tonex looks like a damned fool. WHO is he trying to seduce in the second pic??? John Legend???

  68. Ms. Lovely

    Tonex may look like a fool but he has everyone wondering who is Tonex. So who’s the fool? This man just got TONS of FREE press for what he is wearing, you can’t beat that with a stick.

    Ms. Lovley

  69. bidibidibambam

    tonex is apparently a holy roller cuz he is high as a kite.

    but hey too each his own. the church is supposed to be come as u are God will make whatever changes he sees necessary in ur soul, the outside will not always reflect what is in anyone’s heart. Dont judge a book by its cover.__

  70. bree

    Ananda looks like she is teaching Sunday School on Wednesday

  71. Ms. Lovely

    @***** Chesnut – LOL. LMAO. You are a fool, Fredrick Douglas, you just made my day.

    Ms. Lovely

  72. MAD

  81. Momo

    What? Did Bootz get saved?

    AIN’T *****ODY TOLD ME NOTHIN!!!!!!!!!!!

  82. III

    It’s sad to say this but some people are so confused. It’s alright for people to play around doing the week and then all of sudden on Sunday go to church praying, crying and shouting. Thanking God for allowing them the opportunity to be there another Sunday and asking him for forgivness because you either slept around, cheated, lied, stole or did some other horrible act. And you have the nerve to complain about someone showing up at a gospel event? Why can one change but others can’t? I’m trying to understand what’s the problem with her showing up and supporting. Whoever took the picture didn’t have to but he did thinking she was a star and someone decided to give it to bossip and they posted it. Come on people, quit being so judgemental about what someone else does. Some of you people live to put your mouths on others and then complain when things don’t go right for you. I’ve seen it, people go wrong being so talking so much dirt and negative stuff about other people and they’re struggling themselves. I’ll bet half of the people on here who made comments are, one Christians who are going through and mad they didn’t go or others who have nothing else better to do but sit and wait for new stuff to be posted to make comments. Some lonely fools out here in the world but it’s cool because they bible says that people who are like that have there place to here on earth. It’s crazy because they probably wouldn’t know the outcome of being like that.

    Remember this and take it how you want, God will judge everything seen and unseen. Some of you on here need to ask for forgivness just for trying to call her out.

    Learn to humble and check yourselves first.

    God Bless!

  83. csvmom

    OMG…Lawd have mercy….

    Where do I start???

    First of all Tonex need to repent for that tacky mess!

    Secondly why is Ananda looking like Shirley Chilsom…that fit is too old for her. She need to get a clue from Yolanda…holy and fashionable!

    Who is Bootz???????????

    and last but not least

    Why do Judge Mabaline got on them stockings with those shoes and her toes hanging out the front of them….

    Where is they stylist?

  84. Dalia

    I swear I thought he was Spike Lee. I was ready to tear into that *****.

  85. Dalia

    @ III:

    Bless your heart. Everything you say is true, but you have to remember….

    This is a GOSSIP site. Can’t be an angel on a gossip site; it just ain’t natural!

  86. MACKG

    Dude is so fruity…his name should be pebbles

  87. mjoylaw

    bOOTZ LOOKS nasty..kirk looks hiya dan a kite and gay to boot..j. maybelline lookin OLD..and who da hail is da bruh in da damn white shuez? Lookin like hail?

  88. Sa

    John Legend looks scrumptious. Nothing is sexier than a man in a fitted suit.

  89. Encyclopedia Brown

    i just don’t understand anymore

  90. Astrid

    You can’t tell me that dude isn’t gay.

  91. SCORP

    I watched the show and Yes things are not the same,,Just because the word or words Jesus and God are in the song dont make it Gospel for some of those song i thought i was watching the mtv hip hop show,,everyone wants to rap and dance up and not in doing to the glory of God,but because they really wanted to do hip hop and did not get a contract so they do Gospel and turn it into hip hop music,Kirk and a lot other’s are doing it,,I was looking forward to some true time Gospel that touch the soul and make u know u need to repent,,not rap ,and dance moves,,But some of the churches are turning worldly and not turning people to christ but they are trning worldly,,Read,1corinthians 10:21 we can not take of the lords cup and the devils at the same time

  92. SCORP

    Read,,,Romans 12:2 Be not conformed to this world:but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that we may prove what is good and acceptable,and perfect,WILL OF GOD

  93. Bwana Umboko

    The African-Americanized version of Elton John. Should he be called the Checkered Black *****?

  94. Sick N Tired

    Tonex OOZES gay!

  95. Syoke

    He looks like a goth jewish girl who wore all the clothes she bought at Hot Topic with her Bat Mitzvah money.

  96. D. Phyna

    OH No HE DIDN’T do the gay “receiver” lip-bite…it speaks for itself. Why are all the “Christian” men gay?????

  97. Grace

    John Legend look tired as hell. I am a huge fan & I just think he need to slow down. He has done Sundance, Celebration of Gospel, Tribute to Smokey Robinson & several high profile parties. I notice that I never see his girl with him when he does things BET. He really need to go to a beach and sleep for about 2 weeks.
