First
two “strong” black women with piss yellow hair. smh.
FUCKING UGLY ASS BLACK BITCHES! ALWAYS ON THE INTERNET JUST LIKE I SAID I WOULDN’T FUCK JANET AND NONE OF YOU BLACK BITCHES I WOULDN’T TOUCH THESE 2 BLACK WHORES! I WILL PISS ON THEM. YOU PEOPLE ARE SICKENING
somebody tell this ho that indians dont have blonde hair. and neither do black people
What is the hype over Indian hair anyway?!?!?!
what tha fuck is wrong wit SAME OL SHIT! why did you even comment you jerk!!!
Ann….shut tha fuck up cause yall want to be us too. Gettin butt implants in shit!
Tyra = Oprah Jr.
Even copying Oprah’s “blue” set/stage…
WTF is going on nothing interesting to say so just smash the black people u fucks are assholezzzzzzz
There is not one famous black woman that should ever open their mouths, keep that self-hatred attitude to themselves. I’m tired of it, “long silky indian hair”, didn’t she just say that she was loving who she was. And then she said something like that. But, then again we have to look at the fact that black men never praise black beauty, so thus their daughters will hate themselves. Back during the Civil Rights Era, Stokley Carmichael said, before he got upset with black people and took his wife to the Carribbean or Africa to live, that black fathers need to tell their black daughters that they are beautiful. This is the problem, and why black girls have low self-esteem and feel the need to change or to want to look other. If black men would stop thinking about their libido and other negativity, and focus on telling their daughters at a young age that they are beautiful black girls, that their skin is as beautiful as onyx, or that their hair is beautiful and thick, giving them pride, we wouldn’t have these problems. Our black girls walk around with no pride, because their male figures can’t say, your’e beautiful.
It’s so disturbing that Mary and other black women feel the need to change because our own men HATE AND DESPISE US WITH A THOUSAND SUNS.And it’s the truth, because look at the music videos, all the girls are latina. And black men wonder why black women will give it up to a white man, who says all the right things.
ditto to spicy,
lip injections, tanning salons for days, and fucking our men left and right
NO BOSSIP, WHAT YOU SHOULD BE SHAKING YOUR HEAD AT IS THE FACT THAT SHE SAID IF SHE HAD ONE WISH SHE WOULD WISH FOR INDIAN HAIR NOT THAT PEOPLE WEREN’T FEELIN IT. HOW IGNORANT AND SELF-LOATHING CAN YOU POSSIBLY BE, MJB??? SO MUCH FOR “NO MORE DRAMA.” WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE IN HAITI EATING DIRT OR POVERTY IN AMERICA OR THE DISPROPORTIONATE NUMBER OF YOUR SISTAS DYING FROM HIV/AIDS??? BUT YOU WANT INDIAN HAIR?? GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!!
the sistas really look good together. less of the weave of course, however ty and mary dat was a good look. mayb one day we can see the mary who is mary and not the celeb and ty you to
Its time for tyra to change the weave perhaps go natural for a while then continue to beat us in the head with this tired ass style
the sistas really look good together. less of the weave of course, however ty and mary dat was a good look. mayb one day we can see mary and ty with black hair not portraying the celeb, ya mean
Why are people still watching Tyra Banks. I thought we all agreed her 15 minutes were up.
@NY2CaliLvn sun the shit is so tired right? the dark sistas go for that yellow blonde style and the brown yellow shortys all go for the amber style, ladies what’s the deal? keep it black you can’t go wrong with that, trust
thats the problem with being all tatted up when u dress up u look crazy beautiful gown great flawless make up inked out of control arms and legs mary please do something about that u b killin me softly
And ya’ll wonder why she (Tyra) can’t keep a man…
This broad is a “nut”, she forever be asking her guest (no matter how respectable the person is) oddball questions and be acting wierd = forever grabbing her guest private parts (a$$ & tits)…
If this is how she acts normally (doing & saying – crazy & wierd stuff) how you think she gonna act when she gets upset…
And plus what man could deal with kind of behavior on the regular?
*But in her defense she didn’t grow up normally – during her formative years she was traveling the world doing the modeling thing…
Oh yeah, But to keep it all the way real, I’d still hit it because crazy girls are good in bed and also because she’s phat a$$ s#it…
@SPICY AND ANY OTHER OF YOU BLACK BITCHES YOU WISH YOU COULD BE US, WE ARE NOT THE ONES GETTING WEAVES, DYING OUR HAIR TO LOOK LIKE WE WERE NATURALLY BORN WITH THE COLOR, GIVE ME A BREAK AND WHILE YOU ARE DOING THAT WE ARE CONSTANTLY TAKING YOUR MEN! YEAH I SEE HOW YOU GUYS ALWAYS HATE ON KIM K. YOU POOR IDIOTS ARE PATHETIC
WHY SOME OF THE WHITE WOMEN LOOK LIKE THE WALKED ONTO THE WRONG SHOW
Love yourselves as God created you
Most blackmen can tell their daughters they are beautiful because most of them these days are mixed anyway.
ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN THAT BLOND MESS MARY NORMALLY HAVE ON HER HEAD. Unfortunately the only time you see Mary with a decent hair style is when she is doing ads for a company. That is because their stylist will not allow her to look a hot mess while advertising their shit.
@ Skank ass same ol shit
We dont all aspire to be white & as far as weaves I pass many a booth @ the mall where yall mofo’s buy yur hair plz dont go there on skin color because if black wasnt beautiful yall cunts wouldnt get tanned
My biggest beef with black women is this…Too many nasty ass tattoos(yuk) wack hairdos. If your shit is nappy let it be nappy, not all weaved up. Yall need to work out. That big ass belly ain’t hittin’ on nothin’. So don’t get angry when a thin, clean, white chick with a natural fat ass comes along.
Fuck you SAME OL SHIT! U just a internet shit talker. Why are you even on this site you racist bitch? Go get a tan HOE.
@ same ole shit….
Do you have no class about yourself?…. such simple minded women make me want to run my nails on a chalk board. This is why men (of all races) treat us like we’re objects. We don’t respect ourselves or one another (black or white)
And for the record, women do as they please to make themselves happier with their apperance. White or
Black!……BOTTOM LINE. So its not a race issue.
I could go on& on about how yall want to be us but whats the point you’re still gonna be a bum bitch that I’ve upgraded Cosmetic industry also tried to help achieve my beautiful black skin but the closest u could get was orange
TANS DON’T MAKE WHITE WOMEN BLACK. WE GET TANS TO BE TAN YOU IDIOTS.
NOW WHATS YOUR EXCUSE FOR THE BLONDE HAIR?
I guess that is why tanning salons are a multi-billion dollar business…..WHITE WOMEN JUST LOVE THEIR PALE SKIN! That is why they get painful injections in their lips and ass trying to look like Toni Childs cause they just love their bodies. Yeah Right.
The only reason black men like y’all is because you are easy and they can come home at 5am or 5 days later without incident. I have a white woman in my office right now talking about her husband calls her “white bitch” on the regular. I told her that he is just talking out his hatred for white men by abusing their daughters. All his women have been white and they have all been mistreated.
LMAO @ grace but u do have a point
i dont understand the hype behind “indian hair” or “good hair” .. my mother’s father was native american and married the blackest man she could find .. as a result my father is a mutt and i inherited every single trait from my grandmother .. high cheek bones that cause my eyes to disappear when i smile, and that long thin hair that i cant do a damn thing with because its so straight and fine or if i curl it its fallen as soon as i walk out the salon’s door. i dont see they hype i honestly dont. i get so tired of seeing black women wearing so much damn weave (white chicks wear it too and i get tired of seeing them in it too) generally speaking i dont understand the point behind spending that much money on fake hair .. i do wish sisters would be more natural though because inner beauty reflects outwardly.
@Jubeisan DITTO! THESE GIRLS ARE TIRED: SO SAD

@SPICY AS I MENTIONED BEFORE MY PARENTS ARE ITALIAN AND GREEK DON’T NEED A TAN SWEETY MY SKIN IS GORGEOUS AND PROBABLY TOPS YOURS I’M SURE. SO HAVE THE WRONG WHITE CHICK I DON’T TAN! DON’T NEED TO! GO TO HELL WHORES!
@SAME OL SHIT WHOEVER YOU ARE IMPOSTER! I DON’T EVEN TALK LIKE YOU YOU MORON. STOP COPYING MY NAME!
***********************************************************************************
TANS DON’T MAKE WHITE WOMEN BLACK. WE GET TANS TO BE TAN YOU IDIOTS.
NOW WHATS YOUR EXCUSE FOR THE BLONDE HAIR?
Grace -
That’s a stereotype. Not all white women are submissive, just ask Angelina Joli, ole girl don’t take no SHYT! Lol, I hate when black women make up wild accusations and excuses for why men prefer non-black women. I mean are we still living during the civil rights era? Are men not allowed to date outside their race? Don’t be bitter, and don’t fuel these ignorant stereotypes about women!
Just because a sista chooses to wear blond weaves doesn’t mean she’s ashamed of being black, it just means she wants to rock a new a style…and furthermore isn’t Mary married to a black successful man? If she had any self hate wouldn’t she prefer a man that would give her children ‘good hair,’? LMAO…puhleeezzee spare me the slave mentality!
@NY2 IF I DO BURN I WILL BE AS BLACK AS YOUR MOTHER. YOU DIRTY ROTTEN PROJECT WHORE! HOW MANY BABY DADDY’S DO YOU HAVE? YOU PEOPLE ARE PATHETIC!
@Same Ol Shit and this is my last words to you bitch. Go say that shit to a black girl to her face and get your azz kicked. next.
@ same ol shit u fuckin idiot what the hell happens when u step out of the damn uv death bed stupid cunt your complexion is altered to favor uhhhhhhhhhhh somebody black we come in all shades apparently you live in the trailer park in the mid west some where
where marrying yur cuzin is the norm so congrats on yur up coming nuptials make sure u pick the cousin thats not yur dads 1st nephew Jackass
I don’t blame black men for wanting white women. Hell, if you tell a child their entire childhood that they cannot play with a certain toy because they are not good enough, that child will do anything for that toy. Black men have been lynched for looking at white women. What do you expect. They want to know what is so ripe about this woman that her daddy will kill a black man just for eye balling her There are still a few who are suffering from post traumatic slave syndrome. It’s ok. Just don’t think you are better.
PRTTYBRWNGIRL -
But why does a sista need to be ‘natural’ in order to reflect natural beauty? Why can’t I be rocking a weave, whether it’s black, purple, or blond and still be confident? I think India Arie said it best, ‘I am not my hair,’
SMMFH at all these women on here slamming one another. When will yall realize that men just like pussy and variety!!! No matter black, white, latin, italian, indian, etc….. as long as its pink and wet, we’re happy.
You all sound soooo stupid battling eachother for bragging rights in a fight you can’t win.

You may not blame black men for wanting non-black women, but you fuel stereotypes about why they want them. By saying that white women are submissive, that to me sounds like a bitter woman w/ plenty of insecurities.
@ same ole shit/head U wish but um not the same color as the bottom of yur feet gotta love the color spectrum of a black woman tell yur brother/ boyfriend to holla
@ angel minded you a mess 4sho LMAO
@ Angel_Minded
whats the point of using all these synthetic hair and additives if you truly love you then you wouldnt change you for the world. i dont wear colored contacts, i dont relax and do all this other crazy shit to myself because i truly believe that i am beautiful i am made in Gods image so how can i not be (ooh forgive me Lord cause i just cussed and used your name in the same sentence ) and yea India Arie made a song called I Am Not My Hair because she didnt want to hear the backlash for finally deciding to cut off her hair and relax that shit! which was basically contradicting everything she’d once said about herself and why she chooses to go natural. AGAIN natural beauty is wonderful and stop and think before you ask another question .. because you answered it in the same sentence “why does natural beauty have to be natural” … lol whats natural about a black woman with blue eyes and blond hair. not a damn thing!

DID SHE SAY SHE WANT “INDIAN HAIR”???
Yep we just love pussy. But I’m a discriminating black man. If they looked like either of these chicks, I’d pass. Mary looks like a bug, and Tyra got a weird shaped body. If you’re in good shape, cute and those toes are right you can get it. Despite the color. It just so happens most women that keep themselves up happen to women of other races. Yes, that is a challenge for blackwomen to up their game, and leave the fried chicken and ghetto ass clothes at the chinese shop.
@ANGEL MIND….Not a steyotype about white women it’s fact. My black blood brothers & male cousins tell it to me all the time. I see it time & again. My brother pulled up to my parents house in her car. The white woman asked, “Is this another house I can’t go into?” I never knew her dumb ass was in the car till hours later my sis said go take that white bitch home but bring back her car cause I got some errands to run.
By the way do you know Angelia Jolie?
where the real ladys at
MJB’s comment on the indian hair was sad, but not surprising. Unfortunately, like someone commented above, Black women don’t feel comfortable with their own beauty. After centuries of living in a society where the beauty ideal is so far from our own (i.e. white or light skin, long straight hair and no curves), we have internalized the BS. It also doesn’t help that our own men jump on the bandwagon and put us down for being dark skinned, having short hair, etc. Wearing weave, colored contacts, fake nails, etc is just a symptom of our self-loathing mentality. Just the fact that black people still refer to curly or wavy hair as “good hair” is proof enough. I noticed a few years ago (when I still wore weave) that brothers were attracted to me more with weave than without it. When I started rocking my natural hair, I got more attention from men (and women) of other races, but the brothers (and sisters)weren’t feeling it as much. And even now, when I straighten my hair on occasion, black men (and women)love it, tell me how I look half-indian (lol!) and that I should wear it that way all the time. A lot of people talk out of both sides of their mouths. On the one hand it’s “Women should show their natural beauty” but they define natural beauty only as being naturally light and having naturally long hair. When you’re not secure in yourself, it’s very tempting to do whatever it takes to get attention from the opposite sex and if black men are so down for us looking natural, then why don’t they demand/respect that?
@SPICY/NY2 BOTH OF YOU ARE SOOOOOOOO PATHETIC! SO BECAUSE YOU ARE BLACK I SHOULD BE SHAKING RIGHT? WRONG NOT AFRAID OF ANYBODY HONEY LET’S CLEAR THAT UP! AND NY2 NO I DO NOT LIVE IN THE MID-WEST I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA! CAN YOU TELL ME YOU CAN GO OUT AND JUMP IN YOUR POOL RIGHT NOW? NO! BECAUSE YOU LIVE IN WHAT MY DAD CALLS! IN THE HOOD. LOL! YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE A HOUSE THIS BIG! NOT EVEN A BIG HOUSE YOU JUST PROBABLY WISH YOU HAD A HOUSE.
I hear that Bossip is ran by racists…according to Sandra Rose…..if this is true FUCK U
@ JUBESIAN
It just so happens most women that keep themselves up happen to women of other races. Yes, that is a challenge for blackwomen to up their game, and leave the fried chicken and ghetto ass clothes at the chinese shop. you must live in the ghetto and therefore all you see is ghetto ass broads who think carrying fake louis vuitton bags and matching dresses is whats up. i encourage you to leave the projects .. venture out and see all that the other side has to offer.
*******************************
what self respecting black man would talk about black women this way? you a trip .. im always looking right .. pedicures every week, rocking my natural hair and conservatively dressed.
sasha we know you work for sandra rose & her site is WACK!
nah ladies wear that ghetto shit especially to the reggae spots. it’s love when you walking in the building and rub next to a rythmic sweaty bare skinned shorty, and her $80 hair style gone cause she’s having fun wit me. yo keep that ghetto gear please but only wear it to the fly spots

So answer something for me, have you met every single white woman in the world…or even U.S for that matter? Lol, how you can judge an entire race of women, just by some info from your fam? Please explain that to me.Lol, a fact means that it can be proven, right? So I’d like to know where you’re getting this alleged, ‘facts,’ from. LMAO…oh my!
I don’t have to know Angelina personally to know that she don’t take shyt. She does what she wants to, when she wants to do it. She doesn’t depend on a man to get ANYTHING done. Her actions speak pretty dayum loud! LOL
@ same ol shit .. your name aptly describes you … spouting the same ol tired shit that all prejudice ass bastards are .. blacks are jealous of whites, we dont have anything .. look around blacks are enjoying the best lives ever and are more successful today than most could even imagine. get the hell on somewhere .. perez hilton is where your kind are
wear that ghetto shit please

____________________________________________________
My fault, in regards to my initial comment towards you. What I meant to say was that, if I choose to use a relaxer, or dye my hair any color of the freakin rainbow how does that reflect that I’m not a confident black woman? LOL, I wear my hair natural when the mood strikes me, but I don’t do it everyday b/c I like to change up the style. You don’t have to be afro-centric in order to prove that you measure up to some status ‘blackness,’ as long as YOU’RE happy then that’s all that matters. I’m just so sick of these people saying that if you dye/relax your hair then you’re a slave! LMAO.
Okay so what about white women that perm their naturally straight hair? Or what about when they too have kinky hair and they decide to straighten it on a daily basis…are they also slaves? LOL…
@UGLYBROWN I COULD GO TO WHATEVER SITE I’D LIKE AND I CHOSE TO STAY HERE WITH YOU MORONS! OH MY NOW YOU ARE CONTROLLING THE INTERNET TOO? I’M REALLY SCARED WHATEVER YOU GUYS ARE SO PATHETIC THAT’S WHY YOUR MEN LEAVE YOU ALL THE TIME YOU HAVE NO SELF CONTROL OF YOUR HYPER EMOTIONS YOU THINK YOU SCARE EVERYBODY AND YOU DON’T! MIGHT I ADD! YOU TALK SO MUCH SHIT IT’S NOT EVEN FUNNY, AND YOU WONDER WHY THEY (BLACK MEN) CROSS TO OUR SIDE!
Jubesian
I was with you on some that shyt, but I wouldn’t go so far to say that its other races that are always looking right. I think its more about the company you keep. If your enviornment is trash, you’ll have trashy women to choose from. We’re a product of our surroundings. Thats just real talk.
@ same ole shit
WHILE YOU ARE DOING THAT WE ARE CONSTANTLY TAKING YOUR MEN!
Are you a female?

___________________________
Anyway. I read an exerpt in an article where a white female had written this big thing about being fed up with black women turning their noses up at her and her black boyfriend. She went on to down black women telling them that if they weren’t this way or weren’t that way that they would be able to keep a black man and they wouldn’t have to worry about white women taking their men. I mean she went on to say how nasty, loud and all kinds of stuff about black women.
Needless to say, a successful black “MAN” responded to her article. He told her that the reason black men turn to white women is because they’ll put up with anything. He said back in the day (and even now) black mothers had their black daughters in church and these black daughters weren’t having sex. Being that sex is all guys think about, they had to get it where it came easy to them…you guessed it…white women.
He said that most black men are intimidated by strong women..black women. They can’t run over black women and treat them any kind of way because their not having it. He went on to say that black women makes men be responsible but white women are easy to knock around. He said white women are good to have sex with only because the black women are spitting knowledge in their face about the ring (and I do mean wedding ring) coming first and then sex.
He also said that it’s easier kick game to white women because you can tell them anything. But when it’s time to settle down and get married, most black men are going back to their roots to get their BLACK NUBIAN QUEENS.
No what you speak about before you judge and put yourself on a high pedastal. Back in the day Black women were rulers of empires and we even wiped your ungrateful behind. If it wasn’t for our ancestors you woudn’t be here because your ancestors didn’t know how to cook, clean…nothing. As a matter of fact, the sex couldn’t have been so great because they were rapping and having children with our ancestors.
Our ancestors were brought over here as slaves for one thing and now since the tables have turned and our purpose here is far greater than what it was planned to be; everybody want to get mad. Good for you because we’re still the women who’s running thangs! Don’t get it twisted. Understand me when I tell you this. We always have and always will be on top of the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
naturally beautiful=indian long hair….ok im over this shit…… shakin-my-DAMN-head
Bottomline. Black women are envious of us. I can’t help it if I’m desired by men of all races. I have natural long hair, full lips and curvy figure. Men love it.
Instead of focusing on White women, Black women should improve themselves. Go to school, eat healthy, get your own career, drop the negative attitude, work-out, etc. You spend way too much time hating on other women that your men seek companionship elsewhere.
Same ol shit you need to calm down. You are really ignorrant. Your actions on this website are a disgrace to the race.
Well, if the whites are going to use Tyra and Mary as examples of all that’s wrong with black women then it’s only fair that we use: Britney Spears, Anna Nicole Smith, Lindsey Lohan, Amy Whitehouse, Paris Hilton, etc to see all that’s wrong with white women, right?
All of them are or was addicted to something lethal at one point or another.
shut up Ally who cares!!!
wow…this is truly depressing! you don’t expect that from Mary…you kinda like hold her to a hire standard…i’m just wondering when black girls are going to be considered beautiful
or will we forever be the celie’s aspiring to be neddie….
make me wanna holla……they don’t understand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ same ol shit
You are receiving the attention you obviously desired. Feel better now?
I have made my return people!
@ ANGEL
you sure do write some long messages to end up saying nothing … or maybe you’re just on here to play devils advocate and dispute everything but you know very well that in the black community some have an issue with looking “too black” that we hold lighter or fairer skinned black people in higher regard or if you have fine hair you have “good hair” versus textured or kinky hair .. personally speaking i have had some guys approach me and ask me is that my real hair, and when i answer yes they immediately go into a rap about how fine i am and how “you dont see shortys rocking long hair like dat no more” .. i personally despise those notions. if you want to play into the image that you need all of these things to look better or that long hair, light skin, and all these other european like features make black people look better then yea you are a slave. people who cant stand the way they look and go to all these extremes to alter their image it could very well be indicitive of some sort of self hatred. i never once stated you have to have nappy hair to prove your blackness but i do question black people who try to emulate whites and any other type of race that is not their own, as do i questions other races who do the same. bottom line you need to love the skin you’re in. now im done talking to you because you arent making valid points and i feel as though im repeating myself. i cant speak in any other simpler terms for you.
It doesn’t matter
LOL @ same ol shit
gettin her whole Becky cyber-gansta ON. Bet you would’nt spit to a sistas face what you spittin in the cyber world. I could be wrong, but I bet ya would’nt.
@ same ol shit/head this is the last time um gonna address yur punk ass I do have a pool, sauna, deck, patio with furniture & gym equipment b/c I work hard!! And when I moved from New York Where I still own a home bigger than the shed you stay in I’ve been in the Cali a minute and I have peeped yall trailer parks I,ve seen betta in NC dont confuse yur parents garage as an oasis bitch they dough aint yurs simple minded bitch
I remember kinda feeling like Mary when I was a young girl.It was not because of my upbringing, because I was always taught that black is beauty, but because of what I saw in the media.I got over it before my teen years, but the media also has an effect on some black women self-esteem, and a some black men prefer long hair weave or real.
How a person wears their hair or the color is irrelevant so to sit up here and argue about it is pointless.
All women regardless of race, class, social status or whatever have been brainwashed by what is considered beautiful and desirable.
I knw damn well she wouldn’t cuz she’s a cunt I cant wait to meet on the street
@ PRTTYBRWNGIRL
I would say you are more along the lines of beautiful. IMO.
They both look great. Wow @ MJB. I guess I’m loving my nappy hair (hmmm, thinking I’m gonna put my ‘fro pic back up). Anyhoo, she’s probably saying what a lot of black chicks are thinking. *shrugging* LOL, could you ever imagine a white female celebrity wishing she had a ‘fro or nappy hair?
Same ole shit
What type of classless, foul mouthed, cheap hoe, “clear hill shoe wearing” tramp you sound like?!? Bitch Puuhhlease! You delusional!!! On here acting like cause yo skin white; you or yo pussy better. I hate ignorant bitches.
Men like pink, wet, Pussy!! Bottom line!
I wear my hair natural, but ery once in a while I’ll rock a wig and damn if the nukkas don’t be falling out the woodworks trying to holla when I wear the wig. Same face, same body just fake hair seems to make all the difference. I don’t blame sistas for rocking the fake hair, hell they tring to appeal these narrow minded men…For the record I never holla at a guy who comes at me when Im wearing the wig, just becuase I already know what he’s on….
Six Shooter you are definitely correct about Same ol shit…
@ T Real
That’s wussup 1 time for u preach
Indians I’ve seen brown skin round noses and thick curly or kinky hair. But we keep believing the movies thinking that all Indians have straight hair and two long braids.
All I hate to say is that all of this racist bullshit is pathetic…. ou really just hate yourselves. Life is too short…grow up!
@throwhisassunderabuss

this is the point i was trying to make to Simple_Minded … i think thats so stupid and i would never holla at a dude whose first thing out of his mouth is, is that your real hair.
Is this really what you choose to do with your time?? That’s so sad!! LMAO!!
@ SIX SHOOTER
i hope its not cause of the hair or nothin lol .. but i guess i’ll say thanks
Ahhh, after several attempts, bossip finally found the right topic to cause a fight…LOL
Anyway, it’s one thing to want to change your hair every now and then, and it’s another to refuse to leave your hair in its natural state because you have it in your mind that it’s ugly.
Also, black women are the only women in the world who are marginilized for our hair. So, hair does matter, especially when black women are spending 75% of our paycheck just to send South Korean kids Ivy league schools, while our people are locked up…

Oh, it’s nothin. Sometimes you have to remind people what time it is…pretending like they have amnesia and stuff. That’s when we have to get some “act right” around here. It’s all love for my black brother and sisters. The white ones too, and all the other races, but puhleze don’t try to clown my race about some crap.
@Chris
You said a mouthful that was nothing but the 4real, 4real truth!
Hey Bossipers! I missed u all today…I actually worked today, YAY 4 ME!
FUCK YOU RACIST ASS MF ALL OF YOU ARE MAD BECAUSE THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMEN AND YOU ARE NOT HATING ASS FUCKS GET A FUCKIN LIFE AND STOP TRYING TO HATE ON THE BLACK COMMUNITY SO KEEP DOIN YOUR MF JOB (HATING) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WE STILL RICH BITCH
Tyra s-o-o-o-o-o-o annoying!
The only reason I watched a portion of the show was because she had Mary on it. Even then I dozed off for a few.
Lol @ people gettin’ reckless in here!
**will return after 100 hits**
I must admit won’t nothing get us black women riled up like talking about our hair!!!!
What black women need to do is release ourselves from that “my man likes it” mentality. Instead, we need to put ourselves first, and let the rest be secondary.
I’m 26 and have been ‘natural’ since I was about 16 years old, and never did I have a problem finding a man. And any man who doesn’t want you for your hair should not be worth your time anyway.
Damn nahnah! How you beat me to 100?? Lol!!
I had my acceptance speech already and ish!
Lol!!!
I realized that after I read your post. I’m sorry…;-)
LOL!
say it again @nahnah
some of us up here looking like prime candidates for the hair club for men cause we want to rock the bone straight hair look.
Wow, someone has taken what I said and twisted it up big time. Whomever suggested I get out of the ghetto or I must be from the ghetto. You couldn’t be further from the truth. I won’t get into what I do for a living or where I live because, quiet frankly anyone can flex internet muscle. Anyway, lets just say I work at a hospital… In that hospital, I can’t even begin to count how many hot whitegirls I see on the daily. The only hot blackwoman that was here left. I’m using the hospital as a microcosm to the rest of society. Shit if more sistas looked like Kerry Washington(in shape, well behaved, CLEAN!) you wouldn’t hear shit from me. Unfortunately there are just too many Shanaenae types. Why would I want that, when “Jessica Simpson” wants to get it.
I thought it was a funny interview. LMAO at MJB knowing about Egales and shit!?!!
I am not going to let the Chinese get away with this sh*t after we have been supporting the various Take-outs in every Hood
******Boycott the Bejing Olympics********
They can’t get away with supplying the Sudans with money to continue the genocide in Dafaur
BTW Janet looks good too
@Jubeisan
You are free to date whomever you want. The problem I have with you and a lot of other black men is that you are quick to categorize all black women because of a negative experience you have had or heard about. Not all black women are the Shanaenae types just like all white women are not the Jessica Simpson type.
I meant Mary
Wow! This is the first time I ever read the comments because I don’t have much time for web surfing but this is some raw stuff
SAME OL’ SHIT is hilarious!! I’m a Black woman at the University of Michigan working as a Genetics Researcher and about to graduate next year. I don’t have weave and I have kept my man since high school so perhaps this overgeneralization can stop.
But whatever floats your boat and allows you to sleep at night
@Jubeisan
WOW… That’s very interesting. But sorry, just because you work in a hospital doesn’t mean you have the pulse of society at your fingertips (no pun intended, lol!) I just think a lot of black men who share your opinion (and there are quite a few out there, unfortunately) have just given up on black women and want to use undesirable examples as an excuse. It’s fine if you date white women, hell, I date white men (but not exclusively, so don’t get it twisted). But you won’t catch me saying that I date white men because black men have bad credit, smoke too much weed, won’t get a job, etc. because I have enough sense to realize that not all black are like that. I just don’t discriminate based on race. Period. If you’re a black man, you should know how it feels to have to live down the negative stereotypes put forth by the actions of some of your brothers, but then you turn around and do it to sisters to justify being with a white woman…? I prefer to let the actions and characteristics of the INDIVIDUAL speak for themselves. Whatever happened to that? And BTW, if you around a lot of Shanaenae (your spelling) types, your hospital is in the hood! Trust.
YOU BITCHES ARE STILL HERE?!THAT’S CUZ NONE OF YOU BITCHES HAVE JOBS.JUST SITTING THERE COLLECTING THAT PUBLIC AID CHECK!STOP BEING SO ANGRY!THATS WHY THE BROTHAS DON’T WANT YOUR SORRY ASSES!YOU PEOPLE ARE SICKENING!
Jubesian-
WOW…. I’m surprised at such a generalization of black women when a white man working in the entertainment industry could make the same generalization of black men as being ignorant, thugs, DIRTY….. now why would we (black women) want that when “Robin Thick” wants to get it.
http://www.myspace.com/vibrantlady
Wow @ some of these comments.
@ JUBE
Shit if more sistas looked like Kerry Washington(in shape, well behaved, CLEAN!)

damn do you want a woman or a pet .. clean and well behaved lol
@Same Ol Shit
You keep complaining..yet, you keep coming back talking the same ole shit.
…pathetic…
But hey, it’s fun laughing at you.
Same ol shit…. that name fits you, cuz that is all you talk about..play in traffic or kill yourself whatever would help society!!
THIS SITE IS SICKENING. IT IS THE ONLY GOSSIP SITE THAT I CAME ACROSS THAT INCITES HATE AND ARROGANCE. I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS SITE IS RUN BY THE KKK. AND ALL THESE BLACKS ARE FALLING FOR IT! STOP COMMENTING BACK TO PEOPLE LIKE “SAME OL SHIT” HE/SHE IS PROBABLY A BOSSIP STAFF TRYING TO RING UP RATINGS.
THIS SITE HAS NO SUBSTANCE…WHY ARE BOSSIP STAFFS ALWAYS PITCHING BLACK AGAINST WHITE? THEY’RE ALWAYS MAKING IT A BLACK AND WHITE ISSUE.
ITS 2008 AND BY THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING, I DO BELIEVE THAT GOD IS COMING. INSTEAD OF FUELING BOSSIPS’ FIRE AND HARBOURING HATE TAKE SOME TIME OUT TO THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO DO WHEN JUDGEMENT DAY COMES..STOP DOING THE DEVILS WORK
i like mary but i was so disappointed by what she had to say about the indian hair. i embrace my nappyness and i enjoy my hair. all hair is good hair. just learn how to treat it and love it. my mother instilled that in me. im beautiful and so is my hair. nobody can make me feel bad. i love who i am and so does my husband, and im teaching my daughter to love her hair. it’s beautiful and thick and strong and wonderful just like she is. and i pray that when she gets older she continues to rock her natural hair. the way God intended.
@ nahnah…What black women need to do is release ourselves from that “my man likes it” mentality. Instead, we need to put ourselves first, and let the rest be secondary.
I’m 26 and have been ‘natural’ since I was about 16 years old, and never did I have a problem finding a man. And any man who doesn’t want you for your hair should not be worth your time anyway.

Girl, you better preach!!
Msjlh – “Not all black women are the Shanaenae types just like all white women are not the Jessica Simpson type.”
REAL TALK.
Man, yall have lost it up in here. Bossip why the hell yall block me?
IF MARY J BLIGE WANTS INDIAN HAIR.WHO CARES? LET HER DEAL WITH HER OWN SELF ESTEEM ISSUES! THEY’RE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON IN THE WORLD BESIDES WHAT’S UP CELEBRITIES ASS! AND YOU’RE BEING CONTROLLED BY THE MEDIA AND ALL THESE GOSSIP SITES. YOU JUST DON’T KNOW IT YET!
Damn…..somebody ran that hoe Same OL SHIT off the web. HAHAHAHA.
Mary has been dealing w/self-esteem issues (like many of us) for a long, long time…
I have to say there are always thought provoking discussions going on on this site. We are truly a diverse group of people!
co-sign Victory is Mine:
All hair is GOOD hair. I’m keeping my daughter’s hair natural and teaching her the same thing.
Looks my get a man, but that’s not what will keep a MATURE man…
Personality, intelligence, being fun to be around, bringing out the best in him and other things that REALLY matter are the things that will ATTRACT and KEEP a MATURE man… The kind of man that you REALLY want in your life…
You can be as beautiful as _________ (fill in the blank with whomever you feel is absolutely gorgeous in your eyes/opinion), and you best believe any dude will try to have sex with her…
But after we “smash” (once, twice or a few times – it depends on the dude), we actually get to thinking and will actually not mess with her anymore (and will be on to the next conquest) if she’s just a “pretty face” and offers nothing else to us other than “pussy”…
@ kai
i think the point is when blacks go out and openly idolize another race for their physical attributes it makes us all look bad. thats why you have latino women saying bogus shit like aw, thats why all yo men want us .. they’ve heard enough rappers praise their looks , and feature them in videos, or you have white people saying blacks hate themselves, etc .. but i find it highly coincendental that alot of people are willing to give mary a pass for idolizing “wavy indian hair” and wishing it was what she had, but when beyonce said she wished she was latin people ripped into her. and beyonce was saying it more or less because she was being introduced to their culture and finding out new things and was intrigued. you dont ever hear other races going out in the public saying gee i really just wish i was black or had that black people’s hair lol its insane to say something like that and it really just made her sound dumb. and ive seen a few of marys interviews and theyre all painful. she looks unsure and like she never knows exactly what to say
@ KEEPIN IT REAL
and thats pretty much the bottom line. so true
@Jubeisan
WOW… That’s very interesting. But sorry, just because you work in a hospital doesn’t mean you have the pulse of society at your fingertips (no pun intended, lol!)

***********************************
girl why was i thinking the same thing lol im doing my clinics in a office setting and we rarely get black folk in there because its in upper mid-wealthy class area (which i was placed in by my school to be the token i believe) but i 100% cosign with you .. then again you know how SOME brothers get when they come up .. they get the OJ syndrome
The Truth:
I agree with you. I seriously think some of these posters are bossip ’staffers’ trying to add fuel to the fire. They have been trying all day to start a fight between bossipers by posting controversial topics.
The more we fight, the more money they make off of advertisement.
BOSSIP IS JUST SOMETHING TO DO WHILE IM AT WORK OR WHEN I CANT SLEEP BECAUSE I CRAMMED TOO MUCH INFO IN MY HEAD .. I HARDLY THINK BOSSIP IS THE AUTHORITY ON WORLD ISSUES AND WHAT NOT LOL ITS JUST A PLACE TO COME TALK SHIT AND MAKE FUN OF CELEBS
Victory is mine:
I 100% agree with you. And while I don’t have any kids, and probably won’t be having any, I instill the same values in my little sister who’s 14 years old and have been ‘natural’ for about 7 months now!!!
She was one of those who was embarrassed to walk outside with ‘nappy hair’, but now she’s proud and free!
The thing is black people do not realize the strength of our hair. Seriously, what other race of woman is able to change the texture of their hair?
Also, I know many black cancer patients who have been through conventional therapy (chemo) and still have their hair on their heads. So, what does that tell you? OUR HAIR IS STRONG AND SUPERIOR! I think our hair is in its rawest, most natural form – and that’s something we need to be proud of instead of allowing our enemies to define our self-worth.
Another thing is that “it’s harder to manage” excuse. As if having to get a relaxer every few weeks – spending your hard-earned pay check, and using a bunch of rubber weave glue is “easy” and “managable”. The thing is we as black women have never taken the time out, collectively, to come up with products to treat our hair. Instead, we’ve spent the time finding ways to change our hair. But if we use that time to preserve our god-given beauty, more people will realize how bogus that “harder to manage” excuse is.
Those South Koreans know where to go to make money and send their kids off to ivy league schools. They make money off of our deeply seated self-hatred, whch is a shame. Believe me, it’s not only white people who are billions off of us… You don’t find Korean shops in every corner in the suburbs, only the freggin’ hood. Every corner is a beauty supply in the hood. WHY?
Yeah, I know I’m preaching but it needs to be said.
My mother use to burn my freggin’ hair every month with that JUST relaxer. I couldn’t take it with my sensitive scalp, and I would cry as soon as she apply that crap in my hair… But one day in high school, I said FUG IT – and cut all my hair off and wore a short afro until it grew back…I’ve been chemical free ever since!!!
Yeah, I’m being preachy, but it needs to be said…
Any time, CNS!
@PRTTYBRWNGIRL
yeah, I think he thought we’d get stuck on the word “microcosm” and wouldn’t be able to figure out that he’s full of BS! LOL! But you’re right, SOME black men do get brand new when they come up. I’d have more respect (but not much) for them if they just came out and said it: “I date white women because I no longer feel that black women are good enough for me” instead of whining that they don’t have a choice because black women are this, that and the third. It’s quite pathetic.
Yea I’m in late on this one, but this is no real surprise. I’ve always lamented the fact that so many Black women choose to have this ole yucky yella hair. And with regards to Mary, I knew all along this “strong black woman” charade was just that, a charade!
I knew it because imho no truly self respecting Black woman would go blond. That’s just real talk. If you really love yourself you wont dilute yourself. And I agree with an earlier post which stated that we as Black men, must do a better job at affirming our daughters beauty, yes, it starts with us.
But most of these “famous” type black people are loosers anyway’s. I mean think about it, just how often do you hear any of them speaking on Black issues? Not at all. Whatever for them, I love real Black people, the rest of these ole shufflin I love yt negroes can get the finga.
@Nahnah, you hit the nail on the head! And there is a site that laments the same facts BOBSA.ORG. They are strong on the fact that koreans and others have the Black hair care market on lock, and they ran many of the Black owned producers of Black haircare products out of business by purposely not buying their products.
Now that alone should propel Black women to purchase their products from only Black distributors, but since it’s not the case, they continue to corner a market that SHOULD be solely controlled by Blacks.
Our self hate runs deep and will be the ultimate undoing of us as a people.
Time is running out…
sorry, BOBSAONE.org
OBVIOUSLY i have nothing better to do so im writing this but WHY THE F*CK can’t she want long silky hair. yeah she coulda wished to end world poverty but she was being real and she wants long silky hair. Black hair is beautiful but im sure any ALL real black girl with our nappy azz hair would not mind some long silky hair, matter fact thats the 1 and ONLY thing other races have that we dont. Like I said our hair is beautiful but obviously she loves herself and is working with what she has, that DOES not mean she’s perfect and doesnt want other things sometimes. Yall idiots on here need to get real and stop making small shyt a big deal. get the freak off your azz infront of the computer and get out into the world and GET A LIFE!
@ DARISTAR

********************************************
thats my point exactly .. its like quit frontin you know you be checkin for barbies because thats just what you perfer .. personally myself i dont discriminate i date white men too but like you said i wouldnt even start talkin sideways saying black men cant offer me anything and dont have this or that which is why i date white men …but for me at the end of the day who i would LIKE to end up with is a brotha because there is nothing more sexier than a strong black man. i think they are the epitome of sexy actually. its just ashamed that some of them dont feel the same way about us.
commenting on gossip message boards is for people who have nothing better to do<<<<< i love how this asshole gives the preface and acknowledges that she/he is stupid for commenting on people who have blogged because he/she is doing the exact same thing.
@SAME OLE SHIT is probably a black man who has been deeply hurt by black women.
both of them, it’s so obvious their contempt for their own hair type. They both wear blond wigs, talking about wavy hair is ‘good hair’. Nappy, coily hair is good hair as long as it’s healthy.
They be the main ones talking about love yourself and they talking about they want ‘good hair’, cause their own natural hair ain’t good enough.
hypocrites. stupid.
“Same Ol Shit” is what her mama said when she can shooting out her rectum on her “birth” day. Shit (or do you prefer, Ms. Shit) – you need to go seek out a website that better suits your beauty and intelligence… “National Geographic – Where have all the magpies gone?” Don’t waste anymore time here – Your crew is waiting for you to log in.
mary kept it real…shit all girls with nappy hair have wished (at least once) that they had good hair and didnt have to work so hard to make their hair look good.
@PRTTYBRWNGIRL
Thanks, my earlier comment was for the broads that think that just because they have some “wet & wavy” tracks, just so happen to have “long silky Indian hair” or a phat a$$ and/or tig ole bitties – what the real deal is as it relates to men…
It’s true some black men love, adore, and worship black women. Not all. I have a loving boyfriend who just finds black women more attractive and so do all of his friends and their friends. It’s not that they think other women are ugly. They are just not attracted to them. Bottom line is we just have to love ourselves. Dont get all upset over this chicks comments. What if the person writing these comments about us was actually a teenage black boy who is just really bored. Or someone who works for Bossip. It’s funny when you think about it. Who cares what white people (especially white women) think about us.
SAME OLE SHIT is a WHITE GAY GUY. Trust me….
@same ol shit
U wet hair smelling like a dog bitch
Take that racist peckerwood shit to Perez Hilton and get off bossip obviously u wishing u was like a sista like me whos educated and working for a fortune 500 company while u prolly sitting in you trailer weighing like 600 lbs drinking budlight and watching soap operas all day stop watching mtv cuz all black folks aint like that
now what hoe
I think “men” in general prefer long hair, no ONE race has it all, whites admire things about us and vice versa, maybe she should’ve kept it to herself for self pride reasons but she was just being honest, there are african women with crew cut that are SLAMMIN but they have bone structure and inner confidence to carry it off, someone like that Nigerian chick on AMTM..UNDENIABLE West African Beauty i say this as East Africans like Somali are finer featured but PURE AFRICAN nonetheless Black Americans are not the ONLY blacks on the planet and should know that…Since we are of West African Stock that is where we should gather “our” beauty standards…nuff said!
So sexy, hot and adorable. I seem to see theirs profile on millionaire&celeb dating site
CelebMingle.com .They have many attractive photos there. What are they looking for there? Date, love,
or friends…?

SAY YALL AIN’T WHITE..IT’S ABOUT TO BE SOME SMOKE IN THE CITY…
THAT’SS WHY YALL MADE THE COMMENT,DON’T TALK ABOUT WHITE FOLKS THEY BEEN GOOD TO US..SMH
IT DOENT MAKE IT OKAY TO TALK SHIT AND BE BLACK EITHER BUT WE KNOW HOW WE DO..YALL DONT HAVE THE UPPER HAND
@PRTTY-Ill give you the fist for this one-HAPPY TO BE NAPPY!!! LOL
Ok first of all, all of you are talking crazy on here. There is waay too much racist shit being thrown around here, from both sides. This is why nothing has been truly accomplished and there are so many ignorant people in this world. The truth of the matter is yes, white women are envious of black women, and black women are envious of white women. It goes both ways, the grass is always greener, right? As someone who has dated outside my race a number of times, I will say that you can’t make judgements about other races based on what you’ve seen about them on tv, in the magazines, or in sterotypes you’ve heard. Start working on your own education of diversity and stop trying to accuse others of being rascist…all of you.
I am disappointed with Mary about the hair and Tyra about the “f” word.
to these mf’s are white- the same as responded to same old shit- why are you still here??? black and white are no different.. it is IGNORANCE…
WE ALL WISH WE HAD WHAT WE DON’T HAVE… WHITES ARE JUST AS INSECURE AS BLACKS… THE SHAME IS WE DO NOT HAVE THE MIND SET THAT WE ARE ANSWERING TO “OUR” MAKER……HMMMMM
Mary J. sounds stupid. And fuck a white bitch. And @ SAME OL SHIT..
Dont you have a toilet to be throwing up into? Yall white bitches LOVE to do that. But Black women are the one’s with the massive image issues. PLEASE.
when will the site be used for political action? like say lets join up and boycott something that will have a major impact, pondering….got it no one by cigarettes.
Ok, so I just watched that damn video…
And, she wished she had long, wavy, Indian hair so she can be naturally beautiful? My, she sounds like an insecure ding dong. I feel sorry for a lot of black women out there!
Wow Mary is so pro about us being ourselves and proud of our skin tone and so forth so I’m actually shocked that mary said something like that.That hair comment came out so wrong when she added the natural beauty part. SMH
In regards to the individuals posting those rude comments, don’t reply to them as they’re just trying to get under peoples skins to get many comments and it’s working. so don’t both
Talk about insecurity all you want..Black women are the only ones who have an excuse to be insecure, like i dunno, 400 years of intellecutal and political propaganda asserting that blacks are inferior and ugly, decades of videos featuring half-white or otherwise non-black women with non-black features, beauty ads owned by white companies that never show black women as a beauty standard. what’s the excuse for everyone else? their image is constantly being shoved down our throat and has been for centuries, yet white women still tryna look darker and fuller. i’m surprised we ain’t doing more than throwing on a weave…we not skin bleaching like we used to, natural hair is on the rise, we ain’t throwing up tryna be thin, cutting ourselves, exercisin til we skin and bones. if any other race endured the kind of racism black women have endured for 400 years, they would be extinct by now.
IDknow. Everyone is entitlted to their own opinion. I have long hair with highlights, and yes it is relaxed, but it doesn’t mean that I take more or less pride in my Afro descent. I just like my hair that way, actually… my dream is to one day live in Shashamane with long beautiful locks [ meaning cutting it off & starting from scratch ] but I know that mentally, I’m not strong enough to do that [ the bald part gets to me ] lol, and PrettyBrwngirl…. I think that you are in fact a contradiction… MANY MANY MANY Black women of no “good hair” descent have long hair, such as myself… and its not thin. It has body, I think that you have a lot going for yourself. You are very intelligent, obviously confident in the way you look, and a strong black female… but speaking of skintone being an issue in the black communities is that the reason why you’re name is prettyBRWNgirl? Just wanted to know.
Wow-This is a pretty sad, hateful discussion. Bottom line: We all want something we don’t have at one time or another-it’s called human nature. The hateful comments are truly uncalled for. All woman are beautiful! Remember, life is short and we still have eternity left to face. Try harder to focus on other things. This negative energy is just bad!
Listen to TRUTH, his/her comment is real. Why are you all entertaining ignorant comments. For all we know SAME OL can be male, female, black,or white. Pesonally, I think that its a black man that has too much time on his hands. Because Ive never heard a white use the phrade “brother” to indicate black men.
Whoa! Scary discussions above. Spread love – not hate.
But on another note…Tyra comes off as uncouth and superficial. She thrives on sensationalism and at many times her actions are inappropriate.
I love Mary J. However, I was a little taken back at her level of articulation. Perhaps, it was nerves, but she needs to practice handling interviews and answering questions before she embarking on another talk show circuit. Just my opinion.
i guess she wish her pubic hair was straight as well.
N*gga Puhleeze
I want me some TYRA!!! AND NOW!
First of all I never comment! Secondly, I am feelin’ it so I decided to go ahead and put it out there. Third, I almost lost it when I had problems logging on to BOSSIP.COM earlier today because I am a stan! Everyday, all day.
I saw the Tyra show today, and yes she was talking about all the shit mentioned above (weaves, wax, and planes), but Mary kept it consistent. She is honest. She doesn’t divulge too much information because she really doesn’t like public speaking (from what I can tell), but she did appear on the show and gave us (fans) more than usual.
Tyra is Tyra. No Oprah, but still doing the damn thang. I ain’t mad! I hate to see the silly ass comments, ’cause it’s some extra s$%@t, but some of them do be funny! Life ain’t no walk in the park so I can’t expect everyone to be positive.
Lastly, love BOSSIP.COM like cooked food, making the transition to LIVESTEEZ.COM. Finally, finally…curious to see what the comments are to this post, but trust me when I tell you…”couldn’t walk a mile in my air force ones.”
wow. people are sadly mistakedn if they think that everyone has wished they could just run a comb through their hair. it is the european standard of beauty that makes black women feel like their hair needs to be long and slky to be acceptable. i have a huge fro and my boyfriend loves it! hair is to my shoulder blades when its out but it is in no way long or silky. and i don’t want it that way!
perm is a chemical that alters the natural state of hair. once altered it doesn’t go back. i see all these pretty black girls with thin broken edges, alopecia, split ends because they continue to use heat, and chemicals to get the desired “good hair” look. my hair is good, “good and nappy” and on my head not down a drain!
PRTTYBRWNGIRL
@ ANGEL
you sure do write some long messages to end up saying nothing … or maybe you’re just on here to play devils advocate and dispute everything but you know very well that in the black community some have an issue with looking “too black” that we hold lighter or fairer skinned black people in higher regard or if you have fine hair you have “good hair” versus textured or kinky hair .. personally speaking i have had some guys approach me and ask me is that my real hair, and when i answer yes they immediately go into a rap about how fine i am and how “you dont see shortys rocking long hair like dat no more” .. i personally despise those notions. if you want to play into the image that you need all of these things to look better or that long hair, light skin, and all these other european like features make black people look better then yea you are a slave. people who cant stand the way they look and go to all these extremes to alter their image it could very well be indicitive of some sort of self hatred. i never once stated you have to have nappy hair to prove your blackness but i do question black people who try to emulate whites and any other type of race that is not their own, as do i questions other races who do the same. bottom line you need to love the skin you’re in. now im done talking to you because you arent making valid points and i feel as though im repeating myself. i cant speak in any other simpler terms for you.
_____________________________________________________
PRTTYBRWNGIRL, you’re an idiot. Let’s take Tyra Banks for an example, she rocks afros and then on other days, she wears straight (white people) weaves/wigs. So doesn’t that kinda diminish your arguement about blacks viewing kinky hair as ugly?
When did this conversation turn into a light skinned vs dark skinned issue? Lol, I’m talking about a woman’s right to wear her hair in any style she chooses and still be ‘pro-black,’ and you’re trying to give me a history lesson on race relations? Are you like freaking retarded, or what?
Again, you’re an idiot.
Why does it have to be a psychological thing when a black woman chooses to wear her hair a certain way? Why can’t it be that she thinks it cute? Not everything is a slave mentality…in fact I think you suffer from afro-centric syndrome, lol! So if ain’t ‘natural’ then they’re a slave…hmmm…it’s no wonder why black people HATE black people. Constantly being judged for the stupidest, idiotic reasons known to man.

IDknow. Everyone is entitlted to their own opinion. I have long hair with highlights, and yes it is relaxed, but it doesn’t mean that I take more or less pride in my Afro descent. I just like my hair that way, actually… my dream is to one day live in Shashamane with long beautiful locks [ meaning cutting it off & starting from scratch ] but I know that mentally, I’m not strong enough to do that [ the bald part gets to me ] lol, and PrettyBrwngirl…. I think that you are in fact a contradiction… MANY MANY MANY Black women of no “good hair” descent have long hair, such as myself… and its not thin. It has body, I think that you have a lot going for yourself. You are very intelligent, obviously confident in the way you look, and a strong black female… but speaking of skintone being an issue in the black communities is that the reason why you’re name is prettyBRWNgirl? Just wanted to know.

Thank-you!!!! prttybrwngirl, is an idiot! I’ve already came to that conclusion! LMAO…
same ole shit is just a flat arsed thin lipped big cut white chick…. pay her no mind.
I don’t see anything wrong with mary saying she wants long silky hair… most women wish for a physical feature that they do not posess. It could be ” high cheek bones, long legs, big eyes or what ever” this wish lish is not peculiar to African Americans.
And I believe that white girls dye their hair blonde far more often than blacks….. how many of the white blonde women in hollywood are natural blondes?? Very few.
I’m sitting here wishing I had spectacular high cheekbones…. nothing wrong with it!
WOW! haven’t been in here for a couple days. but DAMN! this is crazy…my mom taught me if you ignore someone they will eventually go away! so why would you guys even comment back and forth with someone who is obviously so ignorant like “SAME OL SHIT”! it’s not worth it.
The thing about the internet is and I think somebody mentioned up top you don’t know who you are arguing with on the net.
Kerry Washington,Halle Berry, Stacy Dash,Kelly Rowland,Erica Badu,Iman,Kimora,Angela Bassett…These are examples of beautiful Black, mulatto women. So no, I’m not ashamed or shun black women. All I’m saying is in Indianapolis, they are few and too far between. All I’m saying is Blackwoman tighten up your game. Start running, quit eating that greasy shit. Stop smoking Newports.
All you blackmen that date whitewomen because they let you do whatever you want. You lazy ass niggas get your own shit. I know this isn’t the forum for this but, there is something fundementally wrong with us blackfolk. We worship a culture of Ignorance. For example, look at the bullshit they call hip-hop. Weezy, all that downsouth shit. That ain’t hip hop. Gang starr is hip hop, Tribe, De la, wu tang, KRS, Heiroglypics, MOS DEf thats hip hop. Niggas aint gonna get any respect with a tired ass dookey rope around your neck and a pimp cup in your hand. Clown fuckers. Put your money where you can develope real wealth.
@jubeisan….Hey you better hurry and go to Kerry Washington’s post….you know you love you her ONLY! LOL….
I really did not think it was that serious when Tyra asked her if she had one wish. This is a tv show and not something that is formal and she take time to think about what she is saying or better yet already know the answer to the question that she will be asked. In additon, Black woman should be able to wear their hair however they see fit and no one should have a problem with it. Moreover, if our black woman have problems with images of themselves its because we as black people have been taught that the lighter you are the better you are. Yes, one can say that you should know better and whatever else but this is something that has been done to use for hundreds of year, so its not like over not one can over look what has been inplanted in us. Just look back on tv and everything else even before rap videos. All of the little boys, girls, women and men would have some little light skin boy or girl with pretty hair so we are taught to believe that is what beauty is when it really isnt. The media is very strong and can effect us in more ways than one. Children can tell you every rapper and singer out because that is all that is on tv, so once again we are taught as young black men that we should want to have diamonds and chains and mistreat our black women which is crazy. Before anybody say well we need to watch what our children look at on tv, yes, that is true but is that reality. We all as black people have fell into the trap of how the white man wanted us to think about ourselves one point in time in our life. Sorry for the long response but I thought I would share my opinion.
bottom line…black folk have influenced the culture of the world…Every other race mimics African Americans….its no surprise we are the chosen race, graced with creativity, spunk, knowledge and life!!
now to the rest of you clear people stop getting ass, face, body injections to be something you will never be AND stop envying black women….As a black women we are the essence of what you all want to be!! You only wish you could be Mary, Tyra, Oprah and the list goes on…Men only want you white slaves because th HEAD is given everyday all day, and they can use you for your money!!! Yuck you clear aren’t the least bit desireable…you have nothing, look like animals and smell like them when you get wet, so Y would black women be jealous at that?
Matter of fact we laugh at you!!
LMAO
Just gotta Luv Mary…

oh and I dont work for Sandra Rose…but I am starting to believe what is said about BOSSIp…the cutdown of African AMericans on this site is very prevalent calling black women bitches and ho’s and not to mention calling Maya Angelou a bitch!!
Very disrespectul and the staff of Bossip wants to be everything black people are….
ILLLL! OK, Bossip needs to BAN the racist stuff, yt ppl on our dyck all day wit the SAME RANT, it’s gettn so irritating to keep scrolling over that dumb shyt, it’s too much of it! BAN THAT BOSSIP!
@ JUBESIAN
Black men also need to tighten their game. Take care of your children so tax payers won’t have to. Admit to being gay, Stop dying and going to jail. The black race is the only race where the women out perform the men in education, making money, owning businesses. I love my wonderful black brothers who are holding down, but the majority of black men are not. God made the man to be the head of household and the leader of the community. You can’t do that in jail or six feet under. The roles are reversed for a lot of black families. (not all but too many)
I am not surprise at all about what I have been reading by all of you. If we get all wound up over this stupid topic then the world is doomed. It is 2008 and racism is still going on and will never ever end so get over it. We forget the important things meaning reality things “like we are made out of the image of GOD.” So one race can’t think they’re better than the other, but we do. Men and women are going to be with whatever race they want to for different reasons, sum men and women might say because the other race is better. SO WHAT! We live in a society now that apperances are everything and the media only hypes it up. Instead of tearing each other down we should say positive things about one another, but that’s never going to happen either. Just pic. this before I close if Jesus thought and judged us the way we do one another how many people do u think would make it pass the gates? Learn to love one another and stop letting the media and blog sites portray u to disgrace yourselves. Now all of that trash talking was not even called for. You guys got off of the topic and took a u turn in another direction. KEEP YOUR HEART PURE AND YOUR SOUL SHALL BE SET FREE. GOD IS LOVE REV. RUN
don’t know why Im waisting my time writing this but maybe cuz some of these dumbasses really believe what they are saying…
To my dark skinned sistas dont even think twice about these jealous ass white people talking trash that is what they do best HATE…we all know the truth they want to be us so bad they would hang us off the trees if they still could.
WAKE UP people dark skinned people run this shit!!! Don’t believe the lies!!!! that is all the do is lie so they could feel better about there reccesive degenerate genes…in order for their race to survive they half to mix with blacks to survive the natural elements of the earth…GOOD always wins over EVIL!
I really do feel sorry for them whites…they are cursed…blacks may not have any money but dammn we got soul and you can’t buy that. We are blessed…ask one of them when was the laast time they could face themselves in the mirror or sing or dance or just keep it real…NEVER
If Mary wants long real hair, she needs to talk to Erika Badu. I thought at first that she was wearing a wig, but later found out that it was all hers.
Au Natural. What a beautiful thing.
again isn’t HOE a gardent instrument and Ho, short for whore? Makin it rain on “farm instruments?”
At the end of the day a Black man DOES want to end up with a Black women. Ask any Black man and if he is honest with himself he will tell you he would have wanted to be with a Black women but it didn’t turn out that way. I have Asian and White homegirls and they tell me all the time that they know the Black men they date would rather be with a Black women, just most Black women expect a man to come with there A game, Black men (some) are to lazy these days and want women to do all the work!! Tabernacle~
why u people always worried about us and our hair…some of the sh*t ya say on here is really uncalled for….stupid azz wmf…….
#1 stunna….is a smart brother…….

Wow! Black Americans have real low self esteem about their looks. If black men knew their history, for example, the fact that so many were lynched, that most people still think of them as animals or gorillas, they would think twice before putting down black women. I don’t know other black culture which is more mean to its women than the black american culture. Shame on you!
I adore Mary J. Blige but the blond weaves have got to go!! It didn’t look good then and it definitely doesn’t look good now!
IF TRUTH BE TOLD I’M JUST A WHITE CHICK WHO HAS SERIOUS ISSUES WITH MYSELF COZ I KNOW I AINT SHIT. I HAVEN’T CONTRIBUTED ANYTHING BUT NEGATIVE SHIT TO THE WORLD. I HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHING REWARDING OR HAVE ANY KIND OF INTELLECT. I LET BLACK MEN (INFACT ANYTHING-SOMETIMES EVEN HORSES) FUCK ME IN THE ASS AND ALL I GET IS STDS, UNWANTED PREGNANCIES AND UNPAID BILLS AT MY DOOR. I GAVE ONE DUDE MONEY FOR HIS SICK DOG AND I NEVER SAW HIM AGAIN. I THOUGHT “WHITE BITCH, SUCK MY DICK, AND THIS NIGGERS DICK” WAS A CUTE PET NAME, WHEN I TRIED TO TELL ONE BLACK CHICK SHE LAUGHED IN MY FACE! STUPID ASS, SHES JUST JEALOUS, LEAST I GOTTA MAN!!
Nothing wrond with wanting a different texture of hair!
SAME OLE SHIT YOU NEED TO BURNED AND HUNG YOU SAD PIECE OF SHIT SOMEBDOY NEED TO PISS ON YA MOMA! IM SORRY I WENT THERE TODAY BUT FUCK HIM HE DISRESPECTED 2 OF MY MOST FAVORITE BLACK SISTAS! THAT SAME OLE BITCH!

OPlease all you white bitches talkin shit need to shut tha fukk up with your ass implant havin lip implant talkin black singin black ridin black dick havin asses .. white girl with a fat ass? I guess you meant to say white girl with a flat ass..BITCH!
There are so many serious issues in the world to focus on…that may call for outlashing or even verbal abuse of language…and this is just a thought, but when I look at the video I see 2 people talking as we all have from time to time…sit down and talk to someone…conversation…as far as the indian hair it was related to a fairy and also we all heard the joke when we were little do we have indie in our family… I think at time people can spend more time picking on one thing when it’s not neccessary…in this case try to focus on her just doing an interview…I mean as much as I enjoy reading the web…I often even wonder if it is even proper to to have a comment option cause it’s being abused…when it’s not neccessary…
Take care and remain blessed…and if I offended anyone…well just pray for me and anyone who may be in need…
God Bless
