Family Affair

Posted by Bossip Staff

Ross Family

Diana Ross and some of her offspring hit up the 30th Annual Kennedy Center Honors State Department dinner this weekend in DC. Interesting looking family, too bad little Evan wasn’t in attendance.

    Aretha looks nice but I hope she’s taking care of her health.


  2. Aretha……come on now {in my Ced the Entertainer voice}……

    but I still love ya girl!!!!


  3. Diana…what is that dress all about??

    I love Tracee & ‘Girlfriends’ she is too funny!!

  4. Whatchaknoaboutdat?

    ….they are the black A-dams fam-i-ly… *snap!*Snap!*

  5. Nita

    josephine baker, chico debarge, a poodle, my great-grandmama in her flapper days, and mini-Ms. Ross! that girl looks like somebody cloned Diana, damn!

    i’m glad aretha is still with us. i’m surprised she doesn’t have diabetes. she needs to be very, very careful with her health.

    and the only reason why ross couldn’t possibly be michael’s baby is because he’s lighter than both of them. ha ha. alright that was dumb.

  6. Whatchaknoaboutdat?

    For some reason all of those pics remind me of halloween!!! And ain’t *****ody even wearin a costume… tsk, tsk, tsk…

  7. Whatchaknoaboutdat?

    Oh my goodness… look at the pic of Di and Chud…. they look crazy…

    the photog should be shot!

  8. Millie

    Chudney has sanpaku eyes (three-sided whites)!!

    O. J. Simpson, Tupac Shakur, John F Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe and particularly Abraham Lincoln all have sanpaku eyes.

  9. Jus Another Opinion

    Why does Aretha have on Lil Kim’s wig???

  10. SELECT

    aretha is clearly losing weight. good for her.

  11. Mary J Blige

    Mz Ross and her brood are one member short of becoming the Adams family. I thought bi-racial folk are suposed to be fine?

    Aretha is Hammylicious. People need to stop giving this broad a p***** just because she is the Queen of Soul. I mean really…the wig…the make up…the chain!….the coat….the dress (which she wears on EVERY public outing)..the weight (which she really needs to do something about. high blood pressure is a *****). Plus she had a stank attitude the last time I worked with her on the soundtrack for the film ‘Bobby’. In fact I think its only fair I ***** that chain rite of her *****ies and proclaim myself the new Queen of Soul.

    all my love,

    Mary J xx

    Queen of Soul. Period.

  12. Mary J Blige

    and how dare you title this post “Family Affair’. Y’all clearly ain’t heard of copyright infringement. I’ma sue y’all nasty *****es.

    The only sane looking one is Rhonda Ross-Kendrick – who I have met several times because we worked at the same real estate firm in Manhattan.

    Tracee isn’t bad looking either, and I love her on Girlfriends.

    One of Diana’s ex-husbands claimed in an interview that she doesn’t like being black. On top of that, she took offense to Revlon wanting to hire her to endorse a new line of cosmetics for brown women.

    There’s obviously some truth to her inferiority complex, because she’s getting lighter and lighter, and looking more like Michael Jackson as days go by.

    I mean, wasn’t Florence Ballard(RIP) the

    “redbone” of the group?

    And she swore she ain’t have no cosmetic surgery?!?!?!

  14. damn

    I looooooove Ms. Franklin, I really do. But I just am NOT understanding this look she’s doing. Somebody please explain it to me. PLEASE!!!

  15. damn

    And why are the Ross’s/Gordy’s looking at different cameras?? Get it together people, one damn lense.


  16. damn

    Sadly…I really don’t think there is an explanation……

    long sigh

    sad face

    hangs head


  17. Aretha Franklin looks a mess !!

    She’s huge ! she looks like a big bag of diabetes !

    Has anyone bothered to tell her ?

  18. cindylee

    All these people look a hot mess no wonder the younger son didn’t show up…and Aretha…hot hot mess

  19. Reformed GammaRay

    Retha went hard on the rouge I see..there are those ppl in the world that just with all they heart, just don’t get it..


  20. …now enter all the Bossip “Dr. Phil’s” to tell us we shouldn’t be criticizing ‘Retha and her size and to tell us to put our pics up so people can see what we look like…in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…………


  21. I know it’s coming…

  22. FineAsWine

  26. SO_SURRUS

    I aint know Oprah was one of her kids…LMAO!!!!


  27. Poor girls, they all got her bulging eyes. But I still think Tracy is attractive in her own way because she has personality, charm and talent. But throw up or Chudney or WTF her name is look straight up like the “Yo Quero Taco Bell” dog.


  28. with a dress on and an identity crisis LOL. A dog that thinks it’s a cat.

  29. True Tarheel

    Damn Aretha gets bigger every time I see a photo of her.

    I sure hope she (and her team) are looking out for her health.

  30. 1 day till Spice Day!!!!

    Mz Ross and her brood are one member short of becoming the Adams family. I thought bi-racial folk are suposed to be fine?

    bwahahahahahahaha


  31. She’s got some good looking kids. But that Evan Ross looks like a cross between Chris Brown and Prince. Lol.

  32. BIG BOOTIE CUTIE

    Diana was always light brown..

    Rhonda & Tracy are cute. Chudney is the BEAST!!

    where is LaMichael (Evan)?

  33. nahnah

    Diana was always light brown..

    _____________________

    Umm, no she wasn’t.

  34. Topaz Vixxen

    I don’t know about the rest of you, but my mother has been saying for at least 20 years that Aretha can’t dress worth a damn. I’m a big girl too, but any full-figured woman with any sense should know that you do NOT wear spaghetti straps when you have tig ol’ bitties like that!

    And don’t even get me started on the Ronald McDonald hair…..

  35. La. Finest

    Dang yall *****g Aretha but she deserves it for lookin a hot n spicy ***** mess.


  36. SMDH at Aretha. To’ up from the flo’ up

  37. NubianGoddez

    Who in the hell does Diana’s make up that woman looks like she’s getting ready to be part of a damn circus. Aretha for once has those two little midgets called her breast covered up thank god!!

  38. jojo

    The black “Addams Family” and why is Uncle Fester wearing a red wig and fur coat?

  39. DonjonCity

    Gawd,

    Why did I bother to read comments on AHM? You people are lemmings… you say the same thing — one after the other… (and I sense that you are a bunch of kids) The Rosses are fine, beautiful…. breathtaking… cl*****y. But you would not know that… b/c you lack humanity — which is why you were — and are still SLAVES.

  40. Miss Dee (Not faded...)

    DonjonCity…. ummm…. STFU…NOW!!!!!!!!!

    ————————————————

    Now back to the subject at hand. There is nothing, and I mean ABSOLUTELY nothing pretty about Chudney Ross. The only 2 that appear to look and act like decent human beings are Tracy and the other one who lays low and stays out of the limelight. Poor Chud… she’ll be living in the shadows for a very long time to come.

    Now on to ReRe… Why is she looking a poor imitation of Ving Rhames as “Holiday”??? That man is grinning more than a cat who at the canary. Seems like she may have put him in her will or something, cuz he sure should (if he loves her), tell her to get on a health regimen, and leave that dollar store wig, hair, and makeup alone. I’m sorry Queen of Soul, but all that shyt has got to go!!! No DisR-E-S-P-E-C-T, but you need to check that neck!

  41. DonjonCity

    What? You don’t like being called names? What you can dish it out — but you can’t take it — Chicken-heads?

  42. DonjonCity

    Pretty… decent… I don’t see the connection. There is no connection — you are also, STUPID!

  43. NuAgenda

    Nice looking family. I love the them, especially Diana.

  44. Life

    I think Retha has mental issues, i mean, why would anyone go out like that if their lights are all screwed in straight? It’s like she’s turn into some sort of greasy hairy beast from all the years of eating a lot of pig’s feet, cow’s tongues and a few yaks! *****, she’s even wearing one of the yaks on her head and back! And seeing The Ross Family together makes me sort of sad, being they appear sort of rustic antiquities, like old lace furniture with its buttons popping out of it! The type of furniture at a funeral parlor! Her son looks like the funeral parlor’s limo driver! I do love me some Traci in Girlfriends! She is our Modern Day Lucille Ball today! I aint never like Terrence Howard, thats because he looks like an old BF who smelled like ham & cheese all the time~

  45. Adlawf

    Rose is so beautiful. Just saw her album on a celebrity and millionaire dating site named ” SearchingMillionaire.com”. very nice.


  46. OK!

    Yall know that Diana Ross..just can’t help herself from wearing BIG *****! She gets a p*****!

    tracee..I hate that dress! I think that she should wear somehting more fitting!

    Chundy?? She is Just Through(UGLY)

    Diana’s Son? He wouldn’t look that bad..if he did something with his hair, and Get Groomed!

    RHONDA? UMMMM….


  47. NO OFFENSE

    I thought that Aretha was loosing weight?


  48. I usually try to find the best in any situation, but this is one of the worst sets of pictures I’ve ever seen! Who in the hell puts on Diana Ross’s blush, Kool-Aid?!

  49. Mrs

    New hair dresser is required

  50. rosemarybaby

    umm why does areefer left *****y have a sign that say next *****y 1 mile

  51. rosemarybaby

    her *****ies look like a “gently used” old skool coach bag


  52. “Her son looks like the funeral parlor’s limo driver!”

    “areefer” & “next *****y 1 mile”

  53. Bahama Mama

  54. Bahama Mama

    ANd HOT DAMN if they all don’t look like Diana…can you imagine growing up in that householdhold? evan going round stealing his sisters clothes, chudney off in her own lil world…and traycee talking bout DAMN! why berry gordy couldn’t be my daddy? I’m stuck here with these fools!!!

    HA!!!

  55. Mrs

    DOWN TO FRAGGLE ROCK!

  56. Happy 2 B Nappy

    Chocolate Rain! I want to kick the shyt out of ARETHA, she needs a stylist and bad. Her man should have checked her before she went out of the house looking like Homey The Clown did her makeup. I still love her but dayummmm.

  57. Lady Architect

    I’m sorry I love Aretha but that outfit and wig is horrible…and her makeup…who put on all that red blush?…diana that dress is ridiculous as well…Tracie looks nice though as always and her oldest looks just like barry gordy…just with Diana’s eyes

  58. Just Sit And Be Pretty

    Oh my, thanks Millie, I’ve never heard of sanpaku eyes and it’s really a medical condition, so I’m going to refrain from commenting on poor Chudney. It’s bad enough that she’s got that jacked up name, and looks like a bird, I kinda feel sorry for her. Tracee has got it as well, but maybe not as bad or maybe she’s just got other features to compliment hers. And OMG Aretha needs to stop!! At this point, she can afford a nutritionist, personal trainer and a chef. C’mon, she’s just too damn big.

  59. Morpheus

    What a scary litter you produced, Diana!

  60. Mr O Dot

    beady-eyed mother*****ers

  61. pimp daddy

    DAT LIL ***** IN THE BLACK DRESS LOOKS LIKE THE BLACK BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN.

  62. Not Amused

    Aretha does not look nice!!!!!!!! She looks a mess! Who is letting her out like that??

  63. DonjonCity

    I hate black people. You are so twisted.

  64. Mrs

    well we hate you too- so it’a all good lol

  65. weezy

    Diana Ross kids prove that not all biracial kids are cute. The oldest black daughter is the best looking one.

  66. DonjonCity

    Here, eat this… I know it’s difficult, but try to appreciate it….

    Some societies consider Sanpaku (San Pacu) eyes to denote physical and mental superiority, also beauty. By all accounts it is a very rare and significant physical characteristic, envied and admired by some, but misunderstood, resented, and feared by others. Some representations of certain Gods and Heroes are shown with this characteristic.


  67. Mary J Blige

    Mz Ross and her brood are one member short of becoming the Adams family. I thought bi-racial folk are suposed to be fine?

    You are such a fraud. I laugh at you cause you entertain all of us here on Bossip, like a clown does. Thank you for your daily foolishment, fake Mary K Cosmetics!

    Much Love!

  68. And I love Aretha, but her weight is out of control. I’m concerned for her health. She need sto lose it, quickly.

  69. Dalia

    Will somebody PLEASE buy Aretha a good bra?!!


  70. DIANA ROSS LOOK LIKE THE “LION KING” WITH THAT BIG ***** BUSH ON TOP OF HER HEAD!

    THE REST OF THE FAMILY LOOK CRAZY.

  71. Constance

    I like Diana Ross and no she wasn’t always that light. Watch Lady Sings The Blues and Mahogany(spelled wrong maybe) She is a medium chocolate. I agree with above post. This proves that all bi racial people aren’t drop dead gorgeous simply because they have white/black blood. Tracee is beautiful to me though. The rest not so much. Diana back in the day (supreme era) was one of the most beautiful women every to me.

  72. 504okaay

    CHUDNEY NEEDS TO LET ME HOOK HER UP WITH SOME BANGS

  73. Reformed GammaRay

    OMG look at Chudney face in the Solo Diana pic stand’n behind her…smh, justifies every comment about her lol!!

    DAYUM GINA!… a ***** eyed mess…

  74. Cece

    Aretha needs to quit wearing those prom dresses and just get herself into shape. Sadly, Dian’s daughters all inherited her ugly ***** eyes.

  75. The Real Essence 1

    I loves me some Diana Ross really I do! So it pains me to have to say this but….who in the world is doing her makeup? Bozo the clown? What’s up with the red circles of rouge on her cheeks come on Diane *****ody wears rouge anymore! Why hasn’t Tracee hooked up? I know Tracee is up on all the latest beauty products heck I even got my own mother out of her Fashion Fair habit {was NOT an easy task, but it so needed to be done!}

    Chudney, Chudney, Chudney well what I can I say girl you are a funny looking bird! That 3rd pic on the second row of Di & Chud is Horrible! If I were them I’d be hunting down the photog who took that ish!

  76. The Real Essence 1

    *oops” Why hasn’t Tracee hooked up? meant to say—-Why hasn’t Tracee hooked her mother up on the makeup tip?

  77. The Real Essence 1

    @ 504okaay

    “CHUDNEY NEEDS TO LET ME HOOK HER UP WITH SOME BANGS”

    —————————–

    OMG your gravater!

    OMG What you wrote!!

    It’s all so funny that I almost wet my pants laughing so hard… you need to warn a sista before posting that mess WOW!

  78. The Real Essence 1

    @ DonjonCity & Millie

    Not being funny but what the heck are Sanpaku (San Pacu) eyes??? Please explain because it sounds interesting yet scary at the same time {I’m wondering if I got them eyes my damned self}


  79. WHY DO THEY ALWAYS HAVE ARETHA FRANKLIN LOOIKNG LIKE A BIG ***** “HOT AIR BALLOON”

  80. Mahogany

    The family that *****s their eyes together, ultimately stays together.!!

    :)


  81. daymn the Queen of Soul Food looks like she kill 4 Rotwilders to make that coat


  82. That is a tore up looking family- Diana still looks *****ed out. Chudney- PITYFUL, Diana’s weave always looks wacked. All of them should cut that hair they never know how to style their hair. Evan looks like a light skinned Dracula. Tore-up family- sad


  83. Will somebody tell Aretha to STOP going Bra-less how come people let her out the door. Aretha is at least a size 55FF she must wear a bra. Aretha everyone loves you- Please stop going BRA-LESS it nasty looking

  84. TivoliEclipse

    For: Real Essence 1

    Copy and paste Sanpaku into Wikipedia! Sounds like you may be a goddess too…

    While in DC for the weekend and she did a black and white haute couture coat dress, the black gown above and a drop dead white gown for the Kennedy Center ceremony. She embodies fashion effortlessly and should start her own fashion line with her daughters!

  85. TivoliEclipse

    Ooops, “While in DC for the weekend, Ms Ross did…” (typing too fast!)

  86. Nic

    I love Diana.


  87. jaime

    “Evan looks like a light skinned Dracula.”

    …that’s not Evan…that’s the other brother Ross.

    (yes, his first name is Ross)

  88. Hagakure

    Pssst… light skinned Dracula! Jaime, you are clueless… that man is fionnne! Ross is handsome! He is wearing a Tuxedo coat! A TUXEDO COAT! African Americans used to set and raise the bar for fashion. Now black men do not know how to “wear” suits, cuffs, braces, ties… But you know jeans, hoodies, Timberlands… and on and on with little boys clothing — big enough to grow in to… Silly! Sad! Soft!
