“Singer” Cassie and “Actress” Lauren London who are the faces of Diddy’s new Sean John line visited MTV’s Sucker Free recently in NYC. Is it just us, or all these broads beginning to look alike? Sure they’re cute, but where is the differentiation?

    Body maybe? Cassie is stickly lauren Got curves and SOMEBODY’s obsessed, can tell yo taste n chix Boss!

  • Reformed GammaRay

    Oh first..and foremost..

  • http://www.IStayConfused.com I Stay SMH

    Nah! And did lauren have work done? She looks a little Jacksonish. Pepa’s a Jackson now, too

  • John

    two very beautyful women together, now this is an improvement!!!! I like them

  • YOU

    generic beauties.

  • YOU

    clothes for the racially ambiguous

  • binary star

    Wait – that’s the sean john women’s line… a giant ripped t-shirt?

  • bonnie

    20 inches of weave (or real hair …i’m giving them a chance people) light skin and clothe’s …..u can’t help but to look alike when ur in hollywood

  • STFU

    They’re both gorgeous girls. WHo cares if their “talent” isn’t apparent. There are hella white women out their who are famous but have no skills.

    As far as them looking a lot alike, Diddy obviously chose them because of their look for the campaign. Naomi has modeled for him and other women of various complexions and backgrounds.

  • Reformed GammaRay

    well there aint no differentiation in the sew in’s.. or pieces..or what have you. Same Doo’s Same Doo’s.. (In same girl pitch and tone)

  • Macho-in-Paris-France

    @YOU

    YOU ARE A COMPLEXED WOMAN. MAY BE YOU ARE NOT BEAUTIFULL AND YOU USE MANY REASONS TO HAVE AN EXCUSE. PITY.

  • Morgan

    looking too much alike is just tacky to me. and is it just me or is Cassie completely devoid of personality? the way Diddy likes ‘em.

  • Antwan

    aint nothing more prettier than a black girl with long hair and light skin they way more prettier than girls like Brandy and Mary j blige

  • Macho-in-Paris-France

    NOW I UNDERSTOOD WHY AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE SEEN AS IDIOT

  • kigali

    I think they are both very cute. I like Lauren’s around the way girl look. Cassie is cute too and is still a departure from the blonde blue eyed girl look that we are so accostomed too.

  • kigali

    Macho how is Paris. I would like to be there for New Years. Will be in London so I hope I can get there quick and cheaply. What can a sista do out there, holla.

  • http://www.just-cassie.de Denise

    Cassie never looked better! She’s absolutely stunning! Lauren looks beautiful, too, but Cassie is 2 times prettier than her

  • Macho-in-Paris-France

    LET COME. PARIS IS “PARIS” YOU KNOW. LET INFORM ME WHEN YOU ARRIVE.

  • me

    they both look quite pretty but looking at them makes me never want to put weave in my hair again. i’m not sure why. maybe because its getting played to me. ah well. to each his own. pretty girls

  • Muff Diver

    @ kigali

    And these are the same type of people who tell black people to get self esteem. If all people saw was your skin color and not your talent how would you feel. You can love your self all day but when you have people picking you apart just cause you are dark skin, your self esteem will suffer.This is why we have this light skin /dark skin debate. I knew all this “down playing would surface one day. the truth shall set you free.

    We all Macho-in-Paris-France is one chromosome from being retarded, just ignore him.

    My bad again Macho, we know Antwan is one chromosome from being retarded. People who go out their way to diss someone skin completion are the main one who are dissatisfied with themselves. Jim Crow resurfaces, why are black people always trying to tear the “Positive” black people down. LMFAO?

    @ Antwan, Wow! Its so funny in cases of OJ, Rodney King, Jena 6 and other cases of racially charged injustices committed against black men, the DARK sisters are right out there to support black men! It aint just the light skinned sistas. Yet at every chance, a black man is so quick to either vocalize or glorify his “lighter is better” beliefs to the world. Its not the white man who keep black ppl mentally enslaved, its ignorant ass black men like yourself! Get educated and lead by example!

  • AND…

    There is no differentiation. One can’t act the other can’t sing. That’s why they are modeling Sean Jean clothing. Think about it. With all the professional models in the world why pick these two?

  • educated

    @The Real Essence 1, Im so glad you feel me. This damn black man ignorance has plagued the hell out of our race! So few strong brothas to count on its sickening. This racism against one our own is like a cancer, its killing strong black families. I actually feel sorry for people with small minds like Antwan. Hes glorifying light skin beauty like its sumthin he aint neva had b4. Most dudes with a light skin chick knows it aint that serious.

  • The Real Essence 1

    ^^ I know what you mean on both parts. I was thinking the same thing about our celebrity beauties put Megan Goode, Gabby Union, Latoya Luckett, Lauren London, Cassie, Amerie & a host of others in a room & you’d be hard pressed to figure out who’s who. After while all these ladies beauty get’s lost in the sauce!

    Another thing sistas are only partly to blame because all this weaving & make up is done in order to get & keep the attention of our men.

    I’ve said this before & I’ll say it again if the average brotha didn’t fawn over the European standard of beauty sistas wouldn’t be “lying dyeing & frying” ourselve’s to oblivion.

    Lil Kim said she began w/ the blonde weave & blue contacts cuz she was tired of the dudes she liked liking the girls who DIDN’T LOOK LIKE HER! In a confused sort of way I can understand how she might feel that way reminds me of the saying “if you can’t beat em join em” that is her mentality.

    When was the last time a brown skinned sista w/ a natural & broad nose & lips was ever considered a sex symbol within our culture????

    Please somebody answer that!

    Oh not to be left out of the boring beauty pool is:

    Christina Milian

    Rhianna

    Beyonce

    Kelly Rowland

    That’s why I like sistas like Tracee Ross, Nia Long, Kimora & for the most part Kerry Washington [who even though dons weaves her style is different] Perhaps the fact that these ladies are in their 30′s makes a diff?

  • Anonymous3

    Antwan you colosal A@%….your comment was not about whose prettier…your comment was about light skin women with long hair being prettier…that’s the difference….

  • educated

    @Antwan, Im not sayin Cassie and Lauren is prettier than Brandy and Mary J or vise versa. What i am sayin is Brandy and Mary arent even in the topic. Its obvious you attempted to create sum light vs. dark dispute in this post. Its also even more apparent that you are NOT used to having beautiful women compliment your existence or else you would be aware that beautiful women come in all colors and you wouldnt be drooling so hard over “average” light beauties such as these two.

  • Christy Love

    Is he bangin both of them?

  • honeychiild

    lauren is so pretty does it really matter if the hair is a weave i never hear white people knocking jennifer lopez or paris hilton all those stars and more when they wear a hair extensions its never commented on how that diminshes from there looks yet black people alwyas do that to other attractive blacks why?

  • lawin it

    cassie’s hair is real?

  • honeychiild

    its pure haters black needs to stop beating on blacks!

    this is why there is so much or light skin chicks are better because peoiple focus on it to much we come in all shades some wear a weave some dont big deal!

    they pretty and leave it at that!

  • honeychiild

    cassie cut her hair a while back to shoulder length what she has now is extensions added but normally she has long natural hair

    as long as the hair real or fake looks good i really dont see how it matters!

    I’m confused. Did you know that Kimora too wears weave all the time? You mentioned Kerry but not sure if you knew that Kimora wears weave. All that hair isn’t hers. Its kinda obvious, well to me it is. And you could tell too if you watch her show on the Style network. In one episode she has long hair and then at night her hair was short, in a ponytail. Kimora too just wasn’t born with long hair. Just cuz she’s half-asian doesn’t mean she was blessed with a full head of hair…

    But I don’t think there’s anything wrong with wearing weave. I think it enhances a woman’s look – well if its styled correctly. And not everyone looks good with long hair, some people look cute with short hair or even bald. But if a girl looks pretty with long hair even if its weave, then so be it.

    To all the people who thinks its wrong for black women to wear weave, what about women who wear micro braids? Does that mean their shallow too? Should Cassie and Lauren wear braids in their hair to make everyone happy? And some people are acting like theres something wrong to be light-skinned. They can’t help it. Should Cassie and Lauren take offense to that? And not everyone bleaches their skin. Only the real confused people who don’t love themselves do. But still should someone like Cassie run and hide somewhere just because she’s light??

  • http://eclat.typepad.com Eclat – that Black Girl in Paris

    Sigh…I’m surprised everyone’s debating the weaves, etc. EVERYONE in entertainment wears a weave…regardless of the ethnicity/”race”/”color”. I should know.

    Sometimes the men do, as well (usually for movie roles, or when they’re losing their hair).

    At the very least it can lenghthen and for EVERYONE it makes the hair look fuller and more “glamorous”. Gives them that “everywhere I walk there’s a fan blowing my hair about” look. Who cares.

    On another note, I love how Cassie is layering those tiny necklaces. SOOOOO CUTE!

  • SavviSweet

    Lauren is half white and Cassie is half something….

  • Antwan

    @ Educated

    They maybe educated in your eyes but in mine they repersent everything that be pretty that i want to have sex with so you can have mary and brandy and leeve the cassie and lauren to the people who nos what reel beauty is.

  • god

    lauren is a 10.cassie looks generic.(i.e.pretty girl from the mall)

  • Kendall

    damn why do ppl hace to make sh*t so serious????? its just a BLOG ppl..and dont act like we all dont use things to make ourselves look better..whether its gettin our hair done or watever..we all do it. chill the hell out! oh yea and Lauren–shawty right there is a 10.

  • say2

    I don’t want to make this a skin color debate, but look at all of Diddy’s videos and his campaign… All the women featured in them are light skinned latinos or mixed or light skinned blacks. He can have his preference but if he’s trying to sell URBAN clothes, he shouldn’t leave the brown and chocloate girls in the dark. That just mean less money for his cockroach retarted chin self. I mean get Angel Lola Luv, she’s a cute brown girl and much preetier than hyped London. Cassie though is a natural beauty. They don’t look the same, Cassie is preety, London is not and Cassie looks more exotic. MY OPINION!!!

  • god

    Lauren is a 10!Cassie is about a 7.

  • god

    whats wrong with being light skinned?as long as they are not pink:)

  • anonymiss

    there’s nothing wrong with being light skinned, but there needs to be more balance. I know we as black people come in many shades and colors, but it’s pretty obvious that Diddy is using models that look more “other” than black to sell clothes to a market that looks more black than “other” and that sends the wrong message. Say2 is right. Cassie and Lauren may actually offend potential customers. I think it’s a good thing that he used Asia though, cause you never see dark skinned Asian girls in ads. Speaking of which, where is she?

  • Tina_Fey

    ok honestly dark or light it doesn’t even matter they are both pretty girls they only look alike NOW because they have money to do so if we dyed beyonce hair the same color as theirs and put her next to them they would look like triplets its just the same pack of hair thats all folks =D

  • Akimbo

    Lauren is so completely adorable and Cassie is…very bland and generic looking.

    You could take a picture of half the young women in the industry, airbrush it a little and come out with a picture of Cassie. Ciara, Ashanti, Amerie, Letoya Luckett, Christina Milian; bleach any one of them and you’ll have your own Cassie 2.0.

  • Minneapolis Lady

    I serious doubt that Cassie is wearing a weave.

    I don’t know about the other female because I never heard of her.

    They are both cute, but I think Cassie looks better for some reason.

    I think that Black and Philapino is a good mix.

  • Minneapolis Lady

    Okay who cares if she wears a weave I still think she is hot. I would go gay for that chick.

  • fynedymemami

    Now COME ON with the lite/dark skin shyt! FACT: These girls are of the “other” racial makeup so their LOOK is marketed to appeal to girls of ALL ETHNIC BACKROUNDS!!. Diddy was smart to use them actually because Blacks are not the only one’s buying Sean John clothes so by using girls that are of mixed race the clothing line will not look like its just for Black girls or just for White girls or just for Asian etc….but for all of them so what better way to market that than by using mixed girls??? This way all of the ethnicities could see themselves in these girls in SOME way..not everything is about Lite skin Dark skin some things are used for marketing purposes…its the same deal with these music videos…to APPEAL to a broader audience not just the BLACK audience.

  • Axeldee

    2 beautiful chicks…great…

    http://www.spymac.com/details/?2288847

  • anonymiss

    @fynedyme

    No, it’s not smart. Most people of other races don’t know who Cassie is and even fewer know who Lauren is, but more people know who Danity Kane are. He should’ve used have used one of the white girls from the group or another teen pop star like Jo-Jo or Britney Spear’s sister from Zoey 101 if he wanted a more broad appeal. He could’ve used Kat Deluna to appeal to Hispanics, because I don’t think Hispanic girls see themselves in Cassie and Lauren. Being mixed race does not automatically make you appealing to all races. Who buys the clothes? Mostly black people, right? So say2 is right. There should’ve been at least one darker black girl to cover all the bases.

  • http://whoseamerica.blogspot.com/ whoseamerica

    Lauren’s face is prettier. Fuller cheeks and dimples. Cassie has a long, thin face. Lauren also has a better body.

    @ ria

    Please don’t rattle your brain to pick apart my post honey. I know very well that KIMORA WEARS WEAVES!!! ok? As matter of fact a few weeks ago {in the Kim K post I think it was}I already mentioned how I noticed the very same thing you mentioned. When she was in the hotel room trying on dresses for the Vanity Fair event Kimora went to open the door for Miss Jay her hair was just past her shoulders & it was noticably thinner too!

    Also If you watch the Kim K show you’ll notice how much thinner & shorter her hair is at times too. When she was walking into the Tyra show her hair was real straight thin & just past her shoulders too! then when she was getting her makeup done you’ll notice how her hair was all thick & really long lol @ the average brotha who’d be quick to say that her hair is real- right?

    Jessica Simpson parlayed her own line of weave/extensions on qvc I know these things girl ok?

    ok?

  • Mahogany

    I’m still LMAO @ the “young bear” comment….

    too funny!

    lol @ Essence’s last 2 questions!

  • The Real Essence 1

    Hey I didn’t think Lauren is bi-racial she looks like she has 2 black parents to me. Who is white her mom?

  • The Real Essence 1

    Why is it that when a black girl is considered pretty folk assume she’s bi-racial?

  • Muff Diver

    Because 9 times outta 10 it be the truth so dont front stupid.

  • Shell

    Both are biracial. They publicly admitted. Check out their profiles on IMdb.com

  • Shell

    And Lauren talked about being bi-racial in King Magazine. Her mom is white

  • coco

    Lauren hair is fake, Cassie is real

  • blakgirl

    Both of their hair is fake. I saw Cassie on TRL a few week ago and her was barely touched her shoulders. All these chicks hair are fake. They guy who does the hair for American Idol was on the radio here in Atlanta and he said Katherine McPhee and Carrie Underwood hair is only shoulder length. When you are getting your hair straighten dyed and colored all the time it is too much stressed for the hair and falls out. He admitted most stars wear weaves because their hair is so damaged for all the daily styling.

  • The Real Essence 1

    from The MTO Files:

    October 24, 2007. Missy, Alicia, Latifah, you may have a couple of new faces amongst your ranks. MediaTakeOut.com is hearing whispers that R&B singer Cassie and actress Lauren London may be a little more than just friends.

    According to an employee at one of NY’s hottest clubs, the two ladies were spotted making out in the VIP area. The tipster told MediaTakeOut.com, “Cassie was sitting between Lauren’s legs and Lauren was kissing her on the neck … It’s pretty common at [the NYC nightclub] for women to kiss each other, but not for celebrity women … Actually I was kind of shocked.”

    We’ve been in the business long enough so that nothing shocks us anymore…

  • The Real Essence 1

    Muff Diver who you talking to? I know you didn’t call me stupid cuz not only bi-racial girls are pretty idiot!

  • linds

    I didn’t know reading the comments would make me this upset. I should have known someone would say something ignorant and stupid. I am so sick and tired of the whole lightskin/darkskin thing. Why, why, why are we ALWAYS putting down our darkskin brothas and sistas. If no one had said Lauren was bi-racial, I never would have known. In my opinion, Lauren is way prettier. People kill me with the more “exotic” comments. Is Africa not exotic enough for you!?! Black people will never progress past a certain point because will are too ignorant.

  • linds

    *we are too ignorant*

  • ilish

    I think it’s a kiddie line, you know, something you’d find in the Junior’s department. I’d hardly wear any of those looks, except for maybe the high waisted pants. The Sean John women’s line seems completely different from when Penelope Cruz was endorsing it and some of the pieces were selling at Bendel’s. It was a little more high end then. It’s cheaper now. The problem is that we don’t have a black Scarlett Johanssen or a black Keria Knightley. (Sigh) We have Lauren and Cassie.
