Keyshia Cole Gives Bossip The Scoop on New Tattoo

Kiesh'as New Tat

When we were at the BET Awards we caught up with Keyshia Cole for a quick minute and asked her about her new tat with “Truly Blessed D. Gibson”. Keysh’s response was

“We love each other, so I figured, why not?”

We responded with a…”Why Not?” and at that point she said…”I Know exactly who you are, so please take it easy on Frankie…love the site!”

We asked again…”Why Not?” This time Keyshia returned with a “We love each other” and a very cute grin; we could do nothing but smile back… the girl is fine in person.

On that note, we would like to offer some advice to Keyshia; love hard, but don’t let that become all of you sweetie. You are strong independently.

  • Bajan Babe

    She looks happy

  • http://www.cnn.com Kim Anderson

    Aww that’s nice! She’s in love!

  • Proud ArmyWifee

    @ Matilda
    Thats Hella funny

    She desrves to be happy though:)

    ****SUPPORT OUR TROOPS****

  • browngirlnextdoor

    That’s sweet! Do you K Cole. http://www.browngirlnextdoor.com

  • Dr. Heather

    I am all for being happy and in love, but damn Keyshia! Why did you have to put his name on your body?!

  • thepromised1

    I agree with Dr. Heather

  • http://bossip BIG BERTHA

    I’M SOOOOOO HAPPY FOR KESHIA. THAT’S MY GIRL! I HOPE SHE GET THE WHOLE 9YARDS.HOUSE,KIDS PICKET FENCE AND DOG!

  • happy to be alive

    what if his name was Jackson Shytt? Would she put that on her? and of all places, the Shoulder Blade. I love little Keish….but it’s beginning to show that she is truly Frankie’s Daughter!!!!!

  • Kemsey

    I think it was a dumb move…now we see the whole clan is clueless. Love is blind. Never get anything of a man stamped on your body, not even in marriage- in the end you will have regrets. She looks happy, but ignorance is bliss. Good luck Keyshia.

  • Kemsey

    AND dude looking a little to nonchalant in the photo for me, smh.

  • H3GOTGAM3

    Im inspired… My Man Boobie Gibson pulled Keyshia coming off the bench in the Nba.

  • Rolly

    That’s some stupid shyt! there are other ways to express love than with gaudy azz tattoos all over a woman’s body. Women just don’t know how shitty it looks to have one man’s name on your neck while you are with another dude! It’s not cute and it looks like body graffiti. But I guess being d*ckmatized can have a girl doing crazed shyt! Keisha’s too cute for all that thuggery ugly.

  • in4mustpimpette

    @ Kemsey
    100% tha truth.

  • Hell Is Not Full

    People get far more foolishness tatted on them everyday. The “Truly Blessed” portion of the tattoo is much bigger than his name, so if it doesn’t work out, she can get it changed to a flower.

    Everyone doesn’t get inked up, and geeked out – so maybe he doesn’t have her name tatted on him – but so what? As long as the love is in the heart, the rest really doesn’t matter.

    why in God’s good name would she do that? that was a big mistake and awfully trashy!

  • Tlov

    I wish her the best but that is FOOLISH!!

  • KocaKola

    I thought she had more class than that. She won’t be able to cover it up if the relationship doesn’t last.

  • Fernand

    @KocaKola
    She should express her love, some people are romantic, it is just them. If it does not work out in the end she could remove it like Angelina Jolie did with laser.

  • http://myspace.com/870bg bg (I’m a Viginatarian…It’s a personal choice!!)

    Damn aint she got enough classless tats?

  • Leave a Reply

    @ Koca KOla
    how did you think she had more class, when her arms are covered with tats? this is right up her alley… keyshia cole and class do not go in the same clause~

  • www

    some mess. when he dumps her ass, she will be trying to get it removed or turned into a butterfly or some isht

  • truth

    bird brain this is the problem with black women no damn sense clingy we got to do better

  • sarah vaughan

    …well, it can always be removed and they have some good lasers out there!

    …to all my ladies, getting a man’s name TATTOOED ANYWHERE on YOUR BODY is NEVER a good look. not to mention having a man’s name tattooed on your body is a GUARANTEE the relationship WON’T last.

    ..we ALWAYS do too much too soon : (

  • Jewel17

    I wish this pretty young lady would stop with the tattoos. I know they are meant to be seen, but in my opinion they detract, instead of add to her beauty. But then, again, maybe she doesn’t care about that at all.

  • KocaKola

    @ Leave a Reply

    lol I’ll co-sign on that

  • Minority Report

    I really hope their union lasts because it will be quite sad for Keisha if it doesn’t and she’s left with this ghetto reminder, even if she covers it up. It should have been forethought more, or maybe when they have been together longer?

  • Gimmeabreak78

    I know, I might get some heat for this one, but black people need to fall back from the tattoos. It just shows lack of foresight to get a gaudy tattoo. How is this going to look when this woman is 75?

    Gaudy tattoos just scream “I don’t take myself seriously, and I don’t expect you to, either”. I wish I did go for a pap spear and my gynecologist had “thug life” scrawled across his neck or forearm. I and my va-jay-jay would run out of there with a swiftness.

    There is no reason to desecrate perfectly beautiful caramel, or chocolate, or sepia-toned skin with a bunch of ugly tatoos.

    If I want to see grafitti, I’ll check out a subway in Harlem.

    Sheesh.

  • wash ya ass

    gotta remember she is a crack baby.

  • http://dmariefashion.wordpress.com dmariefashion

    Um thats all good and stuff that she is happy, but getting a TAT is not very smart. Well I wish her the best and hope it works, instead of her looking dumb in the end if it don’t work

  • soulwoman

    You don’t have to get a tat to express your love. There are plenty of couples that got each other’s name or face tatted on them and are no longer together. Remember Nas and Kelis? How about Pepa and Treach? Dumb move.

  • cornbread

    Her man looks gay to me..She’s to desprate

  • cece

    yea so wheres his damn tattoo if they love each other

  • Jamillah

    Love obviously agrees with her. She looks better than ever and her smile is brilliant.

  • leave-it-be

    ””””””””””’ YALL NEED TO LAY OFF KEYSHIA :( SHE IS HAPPY… LOOK AT HER!!!! PEOPLE KNOW WHEN THEY REALLY LOVE SOMEONE!!!! THAT’S WHY YOU HAVE OLDER PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR 40 & 50 YRS!!!! SO WHAT SHE PUT HIS NAME ON HER BODY, WE ALL DO THINGS WHEN WE IN LOVE!!!!! SHE IS VERY PRETTY AND PRIVATE, HE’S CUTE AND PRIVATE AND THEY MAKE A NICE LOOKING COUPLE!!!! WANA SAY I LOVED HER AND MONICA’S PERFORMANCE AT B.E.T AWARDS EVEN THOUGH THE SHOW WAS WHACK; BOTH ARE FINE SISTERS, CAN’T WAIT FOR KEYSHIA’S NEXT ALBUM, HOPE MONICA COMES OUT WITH HER ALBUM SHE BEEN GONE TOO LONG…. KEYSHIA IF YOU READ THIS KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND STAY HAPPY! :)

  • The Best

    A tattoo is a death warrant. I have never seen a relationship last longer than the tattoo. But it is cute, and I hope she has fun while it lasts.

  • http://myspace.com/crimiegang snoop bloggy blog ( if you knew betta, you’d do betta)

    2 of my ex’s have my name tatted on them, i don’t see nothing wrong with it, if it feels good to you do it, it may remind them of happy times. You can always get the tattoo covered.

    HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO ALL!

  • cutie

    @ Matilda

    LOL…I was thinking the same thing. I would have been like “same time nucca! same time!”

    @ Snoop

    You are a mess..you must have a big gorilla dyck to make these hoes get tatted up. any hooo Happy Fourth to you boo. My grandma is throwing it down on the grill so you already know where I’m headed in a few…and grandma be burning it down (if you know what I mean)

    Tattoo’s can be removed or covered up. They can do A LOT with cosmetic surgery these days.

  • BAHAMAS/CHICAGO/CAYMAN GIRL

    Why must you put someone’s name on your body as a symbol of love? He/she knows their name, they don’t need it as a constant reminder live they may forget it! He’s not even your husband boo boo!

  • yo mama

    and on her shoulder! yuck. her teeth look good now though.

  • fanta

    here’s why not keysh! cuz u haven’t known him that long. it hasn’t even been a year yet!! but i guess keyshia has money to remove it, so oh well! i doubt if i’ll even tattoo my husband name on me, if that’s the only way i’ll prove my love, then…..

  • yo mama

    i’m not saying a tatt equals no class. when your beautiful body ends up being a canvas for the names of fools who didn’t really deserve you, as i have seen time and time again, that’s just sad.

    tattooing is an ancient and sacred art. look at that dude. i’m sorry but no. riri got a matching tatt with chris on her hand. then he whopped her ass.

    eventually a bunch of disperate tatts with very little cohesive visual quality are going to look tacky on an old broad. we all see it walking down the street on a regular. it’s not what you do in this case, but how you do it.

  • yo mama

    i lve my cat, yet i’m not rushing to have ‘cornbread’ tatted on my jaw line.

  • yo mama

    i love my cat, yet i’m not rushing to have ‘cornbread’ tatted on my jaw line.

  • KJ

    I am happy for her but at the same time sad. For my brothas it’s cool to be hip hop but this fool is never seen in public without a baseball cap. Truth be told the real businessmen in the NBA wear suits and ties. Even AI found that out. It’s cool to be hood but if you keep dating hood cats you gonna get that hood heartbreak.

  • Melissa

    I’m with you fanta, I don’t see myself even putting my husband’s name on my body and I know that man loves me. On the too soon tip, our 1st date was April 4th and we married May 31st; still going strong 5 years later, but still no tatt!

  • 2dimplzs

    I’m all for love, it’s a beautiful thing but I’m not going to put someone’s name on my body either!! I’ve been with my husband for a total of 17 years, married 15 of them and I will not dare put a tatto of his name anywhere on me! That doesn’t mean I don’t love him with all my heart because I do. I’d do anything for my boo, but put a tatoo on my body? No. I don’t want or expect him to put one on his body for me either!!! That’s just irresponsible and stupid.

    I hope things truly work out for Keisha and Boobie because it’s apparent when she falls in love she falls HARD and when she’s hurt she’s hurt DEEPLY. I hope it lasts for her and Boobie but she shouldn’t have gotten the tatoo.

  • Sit yo 5$ ass own before I make some change ( Usher-Tamecka=a 1# Album)!!

    I SHO hope he has one of her on him….lmao….there is no way I would do that…husband or not…you should always keep your own identity…she def has been stamped and is now owned by him …LOL

  • jfhdfjdshfdsjhkshf

    i love Keyshia Cole she seems genuine but she is dumb as rocks to get another man’s name tat on your body. Name tattoos in general are a bad idea whether its yours or someone else.

  • Gimmeabreak78

    @ nature matters

    Of course, this is a free country–people can do what they want to do. You have to admit though, you probably never get mistaken for a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. I’m not saying that there is something wrong with not being any of those things, but you definitely put yourself in a box whenever you decide to literally “label” yourself with tats.

    Besides if, I felt the need to get a tattoo every time I had a significant life experience, I would have no more skin left. Why don’t you write your memoirs instead? At least that way your kids can read about your life when your gone instead of having to exhume your body to check out tats.

  • peewee

    She one of them dumb girls that feels she ALWAYS needs a man and falls way too quickly…I bet when Doobie saw the tat he was shocked thinkin WTF we JUST got togetha we aint even serious like that yet…lmao

  • http://www.yahoo.com LondonLady

    IM HAPPY FOR HER BUT THIS MIGHT SCARE THIS GUY OFF IF SHES SO EAGER!!!

  • Thel0vely

    I think it’s a cute tat!… Love is n0t guaranteed & I w0uld say iT’s quite so0n & I may have NOT d0ne it but she has m0re than en0ugh poweR t0 get it rem0ved w/0 eveN c0vering it up. We cant pr0ve he doesn’t have heRs…plus it’s her b0dy, wh0 cares!…live YOUR life Keysh! If every0ne th0ught and did the same things n0 one would be diffeRent!

  • Ara

    Happy for her, but the tatoo, hmmmm don’t think so. Writing it on your body does’nt make love any truer, plus she has too many tats already.

  • http://bossip miss dior

    Just because you love someone doesnt mean you have to tatoo his name on your skin or body that is ignorance to me.

  • Whatchaknoboutdat?

    She got the damn tatt b’cuz she wanted it… it’s her body and if all goes wrong with their “Love” then she’ ll simply get in turned into something else — people do it all the time. I’ve got a cover up and I love it — it’s beautiful.

    Some of us like tatts some folks don’t … it’s up to the individual.

  • 2hot

    HE LOOKS UNHAPPY!

  • ..*MOcarsMOclothesMOjewelsMOhoes*..(THE WHITE GIRL SLAYER)

    keisha im happy for you.boobie she’s a good girl treat her right man….but keisha,how long have you been with this guy? and you getting love tats already…….crasy!…..my girl ask me to her nick name tatted on me…??????……i was like you smoking rocks?….i like you but its not that serious.

  • 954AlldaY

    He doesn’t look as if he’s in it for the long run!!! Monica had to give her advice on her own song, lmao…Does Boobie have any tatts referring to her? If not, then she’s a str8 dummy! Love dont have to be expressed thru tatts, thats sumthin she doing for the media to gossip about.

  • kisha

    i just hope he feels her the way she’s obviously feeling him.

    AINT NOTHING WRONG WITH PUTTING INK ON YOUR BODY. SOME OF ALL YALL PUT IT ON YOUR MARRIAGE LICENSE. SHE CAN ALWAYS COVER THAT TATTOO UP.

    lol

  • Romy

    If they break up she could always change it to “Truly Blessed, The Lord Gib…The Lord Take”

    The Lord Gib and the Lord Take

  • 00gentle00

    Keyshia looks absolutely stunning in the photo. Her beauty is so natural, and the smile – it speaks wonders. I admire her strength. I wish both Keyshia and D. Gibson the best.

  • tami Sass

    they havent been going together for that long they only been actually together for 3 or 4 months and may talked on the phone for 2 he is 23 she is bout 27 keyshia loves hard and you can tell she is probably a bit of a smother which make men walk away.
    The tat is 100% stupid i have been with my man for years and i was friends with him im high school there is no way in hell i am getting his name tatted on me. i Hope it works out but the tat was too soon

  • tami Sass

    lmao @ the chuckie cheese grin she got if you look ARound her no one is THAT happy not even him

  • Cutie

    Not the greatest move, but ‘to each his own’

  • liiLLADY44

    && YALL DON’T KNOW HOW LONG THEY’VE BEEN GOiN OUT ……… ADUUUHH YAL DON’T KNOW THiS WOMAN REMEMBER

  • GET OFF RIHANNA’S TIP

    I FEEL BAD FOR KEYSHIA COLE. SHE’LL PROBABLY END UP PREGNANT OR HE’LL BREAK UP WITH HER. BUT IF SHE GETS PREGNANT WE ALREADY KNOW HE’LL BREAK UP WITH HER. PO THANG CUZ SHE SEEMS LIKE SHE REALLY LOVES BEING IN LOVE.

    I WOULDN’T GET NO MAN’S NAME TATTOOED ON ME. THE ONLY WAY THAT COULD HAPPEN IS IF IM MARRIED AND MY HUSBAND PASSES AWAY. OTHA THAN THAT HELL 2 DA NAW.

  • white male

    d. gibson lost his basketball spot ever since he started dating her. He rides the bench now in Cleveland when he was their second best player before.

  • fatal

    This is stupid!! Write on paper, not your body!!

  • city diva19

    Wow…um, it may be too soon for a tattoo like that. He’s 23 and she’s 27 – age is just a number but she may be a little head over heels over this young guy. Did he get a tattoo????

  • Simply Beautiful

    Hold up! Stop the presses! @ citydiva19. He’s how old????

    Okay, love is grand and stuff. Hell, I’m married but I am not getting a tattoo of my husband’s name…. how much more of some dude that I’m just DATING! WTF?

    And anybody on here defending that shyt is just as desperate as she is!

  • Gone Keyshia

    I hope that the relationship is genuine on both ends….I look forward 2 seeing wedding photos :)

    I’m happy for you Keyshia, you deserve love & happiness, as we all do!

  • ohnoudient

    Keyshia needed a daddy. She just reeks of desperation when it comes to men. Everytime you see a picture of her and a man, she’s just hanging off his arm and grinning like she won a ticket through the pearly gates. He, by comparison, does not have the same happy face. It’s more like the face of a man that’s scheming and embarrassed by all the attention.

    This tatoo was definitely a big mistake and is not a cute look for such a beautiful young sister. No matter how much your clothes cost, it’s an ugly distraction, and it stops the ppl that can excel your career from taking you serious for future projects.

  • ohnoudient

    Keyshia, be smarter in this relationship than you were with Jeezy. Most men are just an experience for women that do not last very long until much later in life, when both have grown. That is not the case here. We do not want to see you hurt again. Learn from your past.

    If this relationship is meant to be you do not have to mark your body up to prove anything, everybody will see it. Just like when you are a good fighter, you don’t have to brag, just kick azz when it’s warranted. Sometimes a whisper is louder than a scream.

  • That_Chick

    Tattoos can be removed ppl the girl is happy and in love u do some questionable things when your in love.Personally i dnt think she cares what any of ya’ll got to say.

  • TAYLER

    wowww…she chessin so hard && all huged up on him…gurl chill out det is not cute…u can jus tell she like being in realtionships…smh…com on keyshia hav more class && pride fo yo self gurl!…

  • kp

    watsup with all that gum..eww i hate that

  • Phenomenal D

    I’m nervously happy about her new found relationship. It just seems she’s way more into him, than he is into her. I hope it works out, but from the looks of the “I gots me a man and he ain’t going nowhere” grip she has on him in the picture… it maybe heading nowhere fast… Fall back a little Keisha… let him breath!

  • http://kossip.blogspot.com kariobama

    When will people learn not to get tattoos of other people’s names on their body. At least get a matching symbol or something that can be played off. Oh well, not my body.
    Love Keisha and her crazy fam.

  • Mrs. Rance

    Keyshia has a great stylist/image consultant. She was actually starting to LOOK like she had some class. That was obviously an optical illusion. She has a big stupid ghetto tat but no ring. It’s pretty clear she has just as man issues as Neffie and Frankie and every other traumatized ghetto girl.

  • T-Boo

    I’m happy that you are happy Keysha. But don’t go getting all desperate. He ain’t even put a ring on it. And you giving him a permanent tag on your body…really! Not.

  • biscuitmd

    wow…. way too old to be pulling such a dumb broad move. what kind of example is she setting for girls who view her as the success of the family? that’s not successful people shit…

    my mom’s not the tattoo type but she always said she wouldn’t even get her kids’ names tattooed on her, nevermind a man. u can never really know someone. kids turn around and kill their parents and it’s even more likely a man is somehow going to disappoint u. visible tattoos just make it easier for the man to identify (and potentially harass) u anyway…

  • nicky

    even frankie aint that damn dum….real but look for her

  • a darius somewhere

    thats whats up..aint made that that display..hope they keep it 100

  • Never Know

    I agree Keyshia I did that too and do not regret it at all! Do your thing..

  • barb

    she shoulda got the word “Boobie” tatted on her boobie. :D

  • mswin

    BLESS HER FOOLISH HEART..YOU CAN TRULY TELL BY THIS THAT SHE LOVES ENTIRELY TOO HARD…YEA SHE CAN COVER THIS UP BUT IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY HARD TO COVER THE PAIN SHE IS GOING TO FEEL IN HER HEART WHEN THIS NICCA BREAKS IT..THEIR IS’NT ANYTHING WRONG WITH LOVING AND CARING BUT KEEP YOUR MIND RIGHT AND DON’T GET BLINDED BY IT…AND KEISHA IS BLIND AT THIS POINT..DUDE IS A BALLA AND THEY DO’NT KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT BEING FAITHFUL…I’M NOT HATING JUST KEEPING IT REAL..SHE IS IN FOR A REAL CRASH AND BURN!!!!! )-:

  • Sheryll

    Boobie is a great guy. I use to have a huge crush on him when he first played in the playoffs. He is really cute and sweet. I think she made a great choice. Hopefully they make it.

  • chi chi

    i love kesh but she stupid for doin that!she does lovwe hard!she proposed to jeezy! she craazy as hell i see y he didnt claim her ass!
