*Exclusive* Frankie Is Not Missing, She’s “Becoming More Responsible”

Posted by Bossip Staff

Frankie & Keyshia

Some folks have been up in arms thinking that Frankie has gone missing. A report surfaced on another blog, so we reached out to Keyshia’s camp to get the real deal:

Blogger FreddyO got the internet buzzing with this message: Today I got 5 calls from different radio personalities asking me if I had talked to Frankie Lons (Keyshia Cole’s mama). They said that she had been missing for a few days, and had not been herself. I have to say that I love me some Frankie, and would do anything for her. She might cut a fool at times but in the end is one of the most loving and caring people you will ever meet. I hope all is well.

Bossip.com reached out to Keyshia’s camp concerning Frankie’s whereabouts:

Manny (Keyshia’s manager) confirms “Frankie is A O.K. She is just taking some “Frankie Time” right now…finishing her book and the spin-off series, “The Frankie & Neffie Show”. People might say she is acting strange because she’s not in everyone’s face, but she’s calming down and becoming more of a responsible mother and grandmother for her family.”

All jokes aside, mamas are important and we don’t want them going missing. We’re glad that she’s doing well.

    Dang. No hate on old girl, but I don’t wanna see that garbaj show on TV – only BET will show it…

  4. missunderstood (tomorrow will come and boy I can't wait, it's our anniversary!)

    I will (prayerfully) take that comment by Manny to mean she is in rehab….

  5. Kami All Day

    Well, I guess its better late than never.

  6. TheMan

    damn see what happens when Frankie is normal, everyone thinks something is wrong. But when she is loud and hood everyone talks smack about her.

  7. Yvonne

    I hope Frankie is becoming more responsible which would be a good thing but only time will tell if this is true.

    I guess forty ish is a good age to start being a good mother….

  9. Sanjor

    @missunderstood, I’m thinking the same thing. If she is really writing a book, I know it’s going to be a doozy.

  10. Electrik Red- "P Is For Power" Next Single!!!!

    aww i’m glad she trying to clean her act up but i dont want her to change her lively persona

  11. Yeah I'm hating ***** *****a!

    This ***** smokes crack and sells ***** all of her adult life, then has a baby by one of her white tricks. That baby is taken out of her hands because she was a drug addicted and unfit mother and that child grows up to becomes Keisha Cole R&B diva. Frankie now has a *****in show and she is writing a book. Ain’t that some *****! Where is the justice for all those who work every day to raise their family and be good people? It is bad enough that the *****es past life did nothing to earn the blessings, she is not really doing anything to atone and definitely not showing her gratitude through grace.

    Oh well….glad I make six figures!! hahhahhaaaa

  12. Blueismyname

    Bossip stay cracking me up! LOL!!!!!!


  13. A recovering addict has disappeared, eh? Sounds like there may be alot more to this story than the reports from Keisha’s camp that Frankie has all of a sudden decided to be responsible AFTER 50 YEARS! Nope……dont believe it!

  14. Golden Goddess

    luv Frankie!!lol
    she’s getting it together.

  15. MIZJULIE

    Please really do go missing, useless excuse of a mother.

  16. Daphne

    So they really ARE doing a spin-off?! UGH!


  17. Frankie is a lil cooo coo but I like her


  18. FRANKIE and NEFFEE made the show! Keisha was boring if you ask me

  19. Hannibal

    THAT DOG LOOKS LIKE MY UNCLE…

  20. That 1

    People CAN change! I love Frankie, she gives me hope. I have crackhead relatives like everyone else in America. She can’t win for losing, if she’s out in public acting a fool, people hate on her. If she’s not in the spotlight she must be somewhere smoking crack. Get off her!

  21. Its6amHoGetOut

    Any black person who watches that “frankie and neffie” ***** is nothing more than a stupid ***** ghetto ***** themselves. tell me what can that show teach you, how to have a bunch of illegitimate kids and have your sister pay for them and your lifestyle? Or what about how to be a crackhead and abandon your daughter then come back in her life as a toothless drunk instead of a crackhead? this new show will be worse than that atlanta housewives *****.

    wake up black people! realize when youre being used to futher the cause of “coonery”, keisha, her family and especially Debra Lee of BET should be taken out and lynched for this *****!

    love 6am

  22. Its6amHoGetOut

    @ That1

    stop being stupid, all BET is doing is exploiting the ignorance of frankie and neffie for profit, you dont celebrate a toothless crackhead switching from crack to weave and alcohol! Keishas momma all of a sudden getting all this money will be dead within 2 years.

  23. Its6amHoGetOut

    love 6am, you know i’m right!

  24. mrgrammy

  25. Black Women Shut Up

    Ugh, who cares?

    This is some irresponsible crack smoking former prostitute who is living off her child.

  26. whoozdat

    That miniature schnauzer is sooo cute! My favorite breed. However, I’ve never bothered to watch Keyshia’s show so i know nothing on the

  27. whoozdat

    topic.

  28. dee

    glad to know that all is good with my girl frankie I wish her and her family nothing but the best

  29. Its6amHoGetOut

    @ dee,

    the best what? *****e, crack, alcohol, weave, counseling, what?

    love 6am


  30. Well, everyone deserves a second chance. No one is perfect!

  31. ldybug77

    well i think she in rehab…BET prob told her she had to do it in order to get the spin off show deal.

  32. ldybug77

    hopefully she does clean up, and stops embarr*****ing herself and Keyshia.

  33. HE'S COMING BACK.....

    Boy this is a cold cold world! Listen to you people. She’s trash, she’s this she’s that. Black people are this and that.
    First of all people CAN change if they want to and with help and rather this is the case or not, she deserves that benefit. And whatever dummy tried to question why is she lucky after being a crackhead for years versus people who work everyday, I would say get over it, that’s life, its just the luck of the draw, don’t hate because a crackhead had a talented child who has made it and now is rich and famous. Don’t hate because her daughter loved her unconditionally and refuses to turn her back on her. Crack addiction is more than a lifestyle, it is a addictive disease that comes from making a wrong choice. And while many of us won’t make that wrong choice , we all have made bad decisions before.
    I don’t think BET’s reality show on Neffie and Frankie is any different than Vh-1 or MTv and the rest of them that expose ghetto blacks and white trash of America. What race is being ridiculed when you see some meth addicted white couple along with their addicted kids, shooting their veins and stealing just to get high. That ***** there is sick, a mother and father AND their kids all on meth. Yep, all on reality tv so please dont hate on Keysia’s family and BET. To me this show just connects everyday people with a celebrity who has experienced everyday life’s struggles.

  35. nyob

    About time!

  36. Trailblaza

    I just think that there are better things that BET can put on television than that. Somethings have to be about values and not ratings. If we upheld values more than ratings then things would be a lot better n my opinion, especially in the black community. That’s why I just pick up a book and read. Television is crack

    Keisha and Frankie is both to skinny though.

  41. jezelyn

    I confirm that Frankie is not missing, in fact I just saw her yesterday at our local grocery store and in the lobby today. Now granted I did not say anything to her, but she seemed just fine.

  44. *Treasure*

    I think Frankie is problematic in her children’s life. She is a negative force in Keyshia’s life. She likes to keep drama going. Frankie had a hard life of drugs and poverty. Her daughter Keyshia has given her financial *****istance to make things easier. That was a kind gesture that Keyshia didn’t have to do. She could of let Frankie fend for herself like Frankie did to all of her children. All of her children are adults. It is up to Frankie to rebuild a positive relationship with all of them and prove that she is sorry. So far she has not done that. She has caused emotionally scars that are beyond healing. I suggest Keyshia keep her distance.

    @6am: you need to be taken outside and beaten til you outta breath,you coon!!!!

  50. CAT EYES

    I just finished the new issue of sister to sister and Jamie Brown interviewed both Neffe and Frankie and I’m telling you dysfunctional doesn’t even begin to describe those people.

  51. Rrrrroe Ski Love-

    Just what we need a new show showing dysfuncional African American families. Between the gold teeth rappers and the images that are portrayed of us on TV shows, it may be the year 3000a.d. before we as a people realize the harm that we do to ourselves.

  52. *****CATFUN

    I HOPE FRNAKIE DOES “CALM DOWN” CUZ SHE WAS GETTING CLOSE TO A RELAPSE…..OR DID ALREADY.

    ANYWAY…GODD LUCK

HAVE SUM CL*****!!


  63. life is not always fair, but what goes around comes around, it’s equitable. ok? just because someone has a lifestyle that no longer works, what? are they supposed to live a life of poverty, or stay in jail? you can change or at least try and when you do, some folks are more *****ed at you doing better, because they get off when people are down, so they think they look better. just cause you work a job your whole life does not mean you will be rich. but if someone in your family has a dream and goes after it, the whole family can benefit. I love this family, through thick and thin because life is real and they love, fight and keep it movin–


  64. Will why does frankie think that tiarra is a LAP DOG!!! HA HA HA….Carrying around a big A@@ Terrier..Ha Ha Ha.I guess it’s better than a pipe

  65. Mama Mila

    The Frankie and Neffie show?????? Post-Crack Life with a lot of Kids……..wow………how annoying is that going to be.

  66. Diamond

    They a hot ***** mess

  67. Ms. King

    Please tell me what is all of the hate about, if Frankie is not your mother selling ***** or smoking crack what the hell do you care. If she and Neffie found a way to Pimp these TV stations then why not. When these white people doing all of these reality shows your silly ***** will be the first one sitting there watching it, while their ratings go up. My God as black people we are so hateful against one another it’s sickening!!! A *****ing shame you post these comments on a white website , *****ing Genius!!!
