Keyshia Cole is saying she very likely will not let this potential reality show featuring her mom Frankie and sis Neffe go on. She says she would want 100% control and even then, it may not happen. She must have finally sat and watched seasons one and two of her show and saw how Fierce Kitty Frankie’s been wildin’ out lately. By the way, Key Key says she’s dine with “The Way It Is.” So will this be the end of Fierce Kitty Frankie TV? Damn.
The other rapper Aubrey Berry who fatally shot rapper Dolla is now pleading self defense. According to MTV:
If somebody has a reasonable perception that he is in danger of bodily injury or death, he has a right to defend himself,” Howard K. Price, lawyer for Aubrey Louis Berry told MTV News on Thursday. Price said his client shot at Dolla (real name: Roderick Anthony Burton), 21, at a Los Angeles mall on Monday because he feared for his life when he ran into the rapper and his entourage at the Beverly Center.
Apparently Aubrey and Dolla got into a fight at an Atlanta strip club earlier this month–so the shooting was a result of it supposedly. Police and family are calling b.s. on this self-defense plea. Here’s the family’s official statement about Dolla’s murder:
“First and foremost we, the Burton family would like to thank everyone for all their kind thoughts and prayers during these trying times.
Most recently, the Burton family was made aware that there have been numerous false claims of information floating around the net and also reported in reputable media outlets. Part of this was due to someone who was not authorized to speak on the family’s behalf and who claimed to be the publicist of record decided to disseminate false information on her own and without the consent of the family to several media outlets.
Due to the circumstances of the situation no other information will be released at this time. We are grateful for your continued support in these trying times. We now ask everyone to allow us to mourn the loss of our beloved Roderick Anthony Burton II.
Sad situation.

DAMN….whats all this?
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:40 AM
Thats some bs!!! I read this update earlier and to me, this dude should be locked away! I dont care what someone says to u, that is no reason to kill another man bc he said something that hurt your feelings. And the defense attorney, although he is only doing his job, is trash for trying to claim self defense! No jury in their right mind would find him guilty of manslaughter or not guilty of murder! Im sure there was no gun on his person when they collectd the body! SMH… self defense??!!?! GTFOH.. Aubrey Berry’s wack ass gets a big HO SIT DOWN!!! and take your ass to jail!!! R.I.P Dolla… ur family will get justice
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:40 AM
Well, alrighty Keyshia. I think its time she moved on from The Way it Is and I hope she doesn’t okay that Neffe and The Other One show. Coonery at its finest. smdh.
When will people stop shooting each other? My goodness. [Step on my shoe...get shot, Call me a name...get shot, You're from that side of the street...get shot]. Ridiculous.
*side eye* @ the “haters” comment.
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:40 AM
How many times can Frankie say “Man Down”?
How many times can Neffe get pregnant?
And they cancelled The Game. SMH
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:42 AM
BET please pick up the Game I need it in my life!!! lol
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:43 AM
I don’t blame Keylolo for not wanting to give her mother’s and sister’s reality show the green light. I mean, there is only so much foolishness the world can take. We already know how ghetto Neffe and Frankie are, we don’t need to witness anymore.
How is this Aubrey person claiming self-defense when he flew out to Cali, followed Dolla to a public place and then proceeded to shot him point-blank in the head?! Doesn’t sound like self-defense to me…that’s flat out murder!
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:43 AM
RIP Dolla!!!
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:46 AM
If she’d fix herself up better….
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:50 AM
Also, that Jay Mohr situation and him calling Lady O a man…he can go kill himself as well. This guy was never funny and why he has his own show is beyond me.
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:51 AM
Imma need KeKe to go ahead and approve the show cuz I need to be ENTERTAINED!
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:53 AM
My bad, I thought you was talkin’ to me…get shot. Our kids need their azzes beat with all this ignant foolishness!!!!
Do your thang, Key Key. That whole family of hers should’ve been kept in the kennels.
What’s up, Dani?
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:58 AM
Heeeey Summer. :D
Fri, May 22, 2009 10:59 AM
What’s going on, girlie? You got your ribs marinating for the big BBQ this weekend?
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:01 AM
I don’t blame you Keyshia, seriously you have the right to only expose what you feel is appropriate from your family. I ain’t mad at ya. They represent you.
And that’s so sad that violence is steadily increasing in this country. It’s rediculous
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:02 AM
Sad sad day in post history. I can’t even comment some of this mess.
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:04 AM
Ok this is just my 2.2 cents on the whole Dolla murder may he RIP. But my gut feeling tell me there is more to this story. 1. the accused tried to flee which tells me this wasn’t a crime of passion but well planned b/c they had tix to get out the area before probing began 2. Wasn’t there just some beef b/t Akon and Suge in the last few months involving beat downs and home invasions? 3. A girl supposedly was the gun man, ie meaning more planning b/c a pretty face caught him off guard. 4. The crime took place in cali……….all these things lead me to believe that this is another case of Suge Knight. Funny how akon went into hiding right after the incident.
Regardless of my conspiracy theories let me not invest so much time in the accused, which often happens and send my deepest condolescences to the family of Dollar.
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:05 AM
Things that make you go hmmmmmm
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:05 AM
Frankie entertains me. She acts just like my lesbian aunt, Uncle Bridgette
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:06 AM
i’m a have to second the side eye at the *hater* comment
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:11 AM
Wow…surprising. R.I.P
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:15 AM
LMBAO!!!!!!!!!!! DAYUUUUM!
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:21 AM
Excuse me, how is it self defense after the fact? I guess he was too hood to call the police and get them to handle it.
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:23 AM
As for the Michelle Obama article….I’m so glad white folk will soon become the minority in this country. Their “standards” leave much to be desired and as far as I am concerned are totally irrelevant. They know Michelle is the most beautiful first lady that house has ever seen.

Fri, May 22, 2009 11:32 AM
So Keyshia Cole has stock in BET? If not, who is she to say what they can and can’t air. Frankie and Neffie are grown women and can do what they want. They represent themselves. Keyshia don’t own them. Funny how Keyshia didn’t have a problem until all the talk the backlash.
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:57 AM
I am glad to hear that Natalie Cole finally got the kidney transplant. Sorry to hear her joy is mixed in with the sad news that her sister died :(
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:08 PM
I’m am just so sorry about that young man Dolla. Regardless of his rap persona, so much has been positively said about him and I saw one of his interviews and he seemed like such a sweetie. On top of that he had a troubled life. His twin died at birth, his father committed suicide when he was 5 yrs old right in front of him.
Damn he was soooo young and it always hurts me to the core when young black men die especially in a violent manner.
I feel terrible for the woman that birthed and raise him. The fact that some coward punk bitch took his life in the blink of an eye, I’m sure her labor pains was a lot longer than that, is beyond terrible. I hope that bastard never sees the light of day. All over some possible bullshit.
I too have theories about this tho. This guy was on the same plane with him from ATL to LA. How did he get access to a gun so quickly. Sounds like a set up to me.
R.I.P. Mr. Burton. You had so much ahead of you. God bless your family. They need HIM more than anything right now.
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:12 PM
I feel bad for people like K. Cole. You know when we don’t realize how ignorant we are/look/sound, everything is all good. But not all of us stay there. Some of us become educated, not so much institution wise, but through friends, family, business settings, etc. So now that Keshia is growing I think she’s more than realizing how it all looks.
If I was her and had a say so about that show I would stop it too. At the end of the day, they became a household name because of Keshia. But I kind’ve think it’s too late for her to stop it now that Frankie done created a name for herself. Neffe, not so muc. Unless she wants to be a spokeperson for Planned Parenthood.
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:27 PM
dammmm im gona miss the way it is i love that show me n my family love dat show
will i hope she let frankie n neffe get a show i wanna c if nefe got married n watz going on wit dat
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:28 PM
I can’t blame Keyshia for this! Am I the only one that notices since we have a Black family in the White House all the shows on TV now are showing us in a ignorant, sleezy and broke manner. I am blaming this on the networks, they think that is all we want to see, RayJ screwing everything that moves, Ms NY looking stupid while America chooses a job (right), all these dumb reality shows getting on my nerves give me some real TV or I am going to stop watching TV and just rent or buy movies. Give me back “The Game”.
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:34 PM
How is shooting someone in the FUCKING HEAD self defense? Did Dolla have a gun and threaten him? That’s not self fucking defense! Sounds like this dumb ass was embarrassed in the strip club that night followed Dolla and set out to get revenge!
Fri, May 22, 2009 12:54 PM
Wow!Why does Keyshia wait two seasons to reign in Frankie, Neffie and the foolishness that is her life and family? I mean she stated she was approving all the other foolishness so how much worse could it get now with or without her approval? Her approval of their previous antics didn’t make a difference. Is it that she has gained everything out of the attention they bring to get where she was going so she doesn’t need them anymore? So, they are suddenly an embarrassment now that you have solidify your career on their backs? Keyshia is a Hollyhood Hypocrite.
Fri, May 22, 2009 1:08 PM
I have to agree with you. She did not have a problem with their ignorance and stupidty on her show and now she wants to stop them. She is suppose to be working with John Singleton on a movie about her life but she wants to stop them. I am sure the show will be a hot mess and I dont think I want to watch it, but anyway Keyshia you cant have it both ways. You used them to get out there and try to get empathy from people because of your family now deal with it. Just because you got a basketball player as a boyfriend you want to hide your family?

Ke Ke not approving the show is def a Code 10 Man down situation… I need to see Neffe’s stylist as well he has so much bounce and body in his hair. I am soooo jealous..
Fri, May 22, 2009 1:59 PM
Personally I think Keisha is an over possessive control freak with a jacked up attitude. She enjoys the fact that they need her and she’s the provider. I remember a comment she made to Frankie on the show, something like, if it wasn’t for her they wouldn’t have what they have…something to that effect.
I do agree that it should be done in a tasteful manner but that’s almost impossible with Neffe and Frankie.
Fri, May 22, 2009 2:02 PM
I agree with u a 100%. She made sure that this last show dropped around the time that album was release. And to hear admit that she had control over both seasons. GTFOH, so u seen season one and yall didnt talk about trying to present positive images. I love Keyshia, but her music is changing and if she doesnt realize that this show was really good for her,she will regret it.
I think she might want to rethink…. on why all these R&B singers now want Reality shows.Like Fantasia and Monica. I think Ciara might need one next seeing how this Album flopped.
All these artist talking about the record labels aren’t promoting their projects. Let Keyshia’s next album dont do well. She will do another Reality show and this time base it in Oakland and she will make sure all the hood can show her themselves in the name of showing how she made it from such a ruff enviroment…. That Pride will be put aside for MONEY!!! I’m so pissed about this. I like the show. The only problem was her sister needs help and a jobless man and a new baby wasnt the cure.
Fri, May 22, 2009 2:36 PM
Yess I agree with you Erica… Who does Keyshia Cole think she is…She is ughhhh…I cant stand her..I would night watch her on an TV interview..She doesnt smile..Shes arrogant and she acts like shes all that..Seems like she always have her nose turned up..Ugh…I hope they dont get a show becuz then that non-singing bitch is gonna feel like she made them who they r..She wants to b in control of everything and thats why her career is shot..Snobbish bitch!!!!
Fri, May 22, 2009 3:07 PM
I’m glad someone else agrees with me. Everytime I hear a radio interview with her she has this funy attitude. I know being an entertainer is exhausting but she really needs to check that attitude. Just stank for no reason.
Fri, May 22, 2009 3:39 PM
UH, OH looks like Keyshia created a FRANKIE/STEIN monster and is afraid what her drunk ass would say on her and Neffy’s own reality show.
Fri, May 22, 2009 4:04 PM
Ok that made me laugh out loud at work! OMG!
Fri, May 22, 2009 5:22 PM
aM I THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED THAT KESHIA COLE GOT MAD BOUGIE…NOT ONLY THAT SHE ALWAYS TRY’S TO BE BETTER THEN HER FAMILY. SHE GOT SOME WHITE FRIENDS AND LOST THAT GROSS GAP AND NOW SHE THINKS SHES ALL THAT…nEXT SHE’LL BE LIGHTENING HER SKIN AND DANCING THE CHARLESTON….COON. HATED HER SHOW FROM DAY ONE. hate SELF HATERS LIKE KEYSHIA TRASH TRICK COLE!
Fri, May 22, 2009 6:35 PM
On the Michelle O story. Jay Mahr or whatever he is named, has some nerve. I cannot even describe what his wife looks like. All I can say is OMG, and also what the hell happened to Nikki Cox, she was so pretty one time! Yikes!!
Fri, May 22, 2009 7:13 PM
I absolutely love Keyshia Cole. She’s a great artist and a great person. She is right for not doing another season. Nobody needs cameras in their lives twenty four seven. And she’s really right for not lettin Frankie and Neffe do another show. They get past the point of entertainment and they just get to down right embarrasing. I actually do think that KC is embnarresed by them. I dnt blame her.
What happened to Dolla is horrible. He was so young and talented. R.I.P.
I’m prayin for Natalie Cole. God bless you. If one of my sister’s died, idk what i would do.
Fri, May 22, 2009 9:03 PM
Dam! Dudes is still shooting each other over some BS!
I dont know what went down between Dolla and that other Kid,
but I know it wasnt worth killing somebody over. Stop the Madness!
Fri, May 22, 2009 11:01 PM
I don’t blame Keyshia! Because like ive said before what Neffe and Frankie, at the end of the day, it effects Keyshia Cole and her business. Good for her!
Sat, May 23, 2009 7:56 AM
My cousin and her boyfriend live in Oakland and were both raised in the bay area. They know first hand accounts about Kiesha Cole. I am always happy to see people rise above their situations, but to act like you are better than someone who came from your situation or worse it wrong. That to me is what a sell out is. Keisha knows she was a ho all through the bay, so to TRY and act as if you are better than none other than your familt is not right!! Especially when you walked the same streets they did. I wasn never a fan of her bc of her attitude. She needs to eat some humble pie ASAP.
Sat, May 23, 2009 9:35 AM
KEYSHIA STOP HATING LET YOUR SISTER AND MOM EAT AND WILL MOST DEF BE WATCHIN THAT SHOW I NEED MY LAUGH LOL.

keyshia has gotten really arrogant. that thing called pride. and she aint even a great singer like whitney houston, so what she frontin all hard for. yea that song she made called you changed……seems like she is the one who got dough and changed.
Mon, June 1, 2009 8:43 PM
How can dude say it was self defence when he shot dolla in the back of the head. If im not mistaken thats murder execution style. then they said he went to the airport trying to leave. I also heard he knew dolla would be in calli because he followed him there. He was so stipid because there were witnesses so they identified his stupid ass. they should give hom life for killing that man over something stupid and for being stupid enough to say it was damn self defence.
Mon, October 12, 2009 4:17 PM
