**Keeps da mic**…first up in dis piece**
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:02 PM
Halle and Tyra – gorgeous!
I still don’t understand all of the hype around Drake… IT coudl just be that i’m not attracted to him – and I still hear Yeezy and Weezy everytime he raps. I like when he tries to sing though…
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:02 PM
the girls look great–i’m over drake at the moment…loves mr. thicke
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:02 PM
Halle & Tyra are fabbo!! Drake, not so much.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:03 PM
Halle nd Tyra look very beautiful..!
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:03 PM
Love Halle.
Don’t care for Tyra or Drake. Or Robin to be honest lol
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:07 PM
yummy@ robin thicke!!!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:12 PM
Love me some halle and tyra!!! You go girls.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:12 PM
cute pic of Halle wish Tyra didn’t do her face like that it looks warped. Would’ve been cuter if she just looked @ the camera and smiled. Maybe even smized?
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:14 PM
I would much rather see a Drake Vibe cover then Chris Brown who needs to go away.
Halle looks pretty
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:15 PM
i am not convinced with the robin thicke thing. i think he is manufactured!! it feels forced but because we are hungry for music that has positivity and love in it we will accept that he is “THE ONE” NEXT…….
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:15 PM
I was thinking the same thing. Robin Thicke is so fine and talented. Loves him. Drake is tight and is a breath of fresh air when it comes to hip hop. Long over due.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:17 PM
AND MIGHT I ADD IT SAY PARENTAL ADVISORY. SO THAT TELLS NE THAT HE EITHER HAS RAPPERS ON THE ALBUM WHO WILL NOT CENSOR THEMSELVES OR THE MATERIAL IS SO SEXUAL IN CONTENT THAT IT HAS TO PUT CAUTION FOR LEGAL REASONS
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:18 PM
HALLE AND TYRA. MAKES UP AND A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER WILL MAKE IT LOOK BEAUTIFUL EVERYTIME
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:22 PM
AND WHAT ACTUALLY MAKES ROBIN THICKE SEXY? I MEAN REALLY IF YOU SAW THE BEFORE PICTURES WHEN HE WAS IN A ROCK BAND AND OVER OVER WEIGHT. I WONDER WOULD YOU SILLIES STILL BE SAYING THAT. YOU KNOW MEAN HAVE PLASTIC SURGERY TO. IT IS ALL IMAGE PEOPLE. IT IS ALL TO DESTROY WHERE THIS TYPE OF MUSIC ORIGINALLY CAME FROM AND WHO IT CAME FROM. I AM NOT APOLOGIZING FOR MY OPINION THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND WATCH NEXT YEAR HE WILL BE NOMINATED FOR A GRAMMY FOR THESE SONGS THAT THEY WOULD NOT I REPEAT WOULD NOT GIVE TO BLACK MALE ARTIST WHO WANTED THE TRACKS AND WERE REFUSED THEM. REFLECT
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:25 PM
Halle and Tyra – Great Pic
Drake-enstein still make my stomach crap up when I look at him – dude is fugly, sorry
Robin Thicke – love ya music!
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:25 PM
DRAKE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR??? GIRL STOP!!!!! YOU CAN’T TELL IF IT’S LIL WAYNE OR DRAKE ON SOME TRACKS AND IF HE IS SUCH A BREATH OF FRESH AIR WHY DID HE RAP THAT SONG WITH “WEEZT” ABOUT F*&^^ING EVERY GIRL IN THE WORLD ON STAGE AT THE BET AWARDS SHOW WITH LITTLE GIRLS ON STAGE. FRESHH AIR HUH? IAM GOING TO NEED PEOPLE TO THINK WITH THEIR OTHER BRAIN PLEASE
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:30 PM
Tyra and Halle are so beautiful! Tyra seems like a lot of fun, with her extra ass lol. And has Tyra always had freckles??
Ugh, sick of Droopy Dog…
Can’t wait for Robin Thicke’s new album. Love his voice…
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:32 PM
YOU ONLY LOVE ROBIN THICKE BECAUSE OF WHO IS IS PORTRAYED TO BE. HE IS MANUFACTURED………………..MANUFACTURED. YOU CAN TEACH ANYONE TO IMITATE WITH ENOUGH MONEY AND BEHIND THE SCENE HELP. GIVE EVERY ARTIST THE SAME CHANCE AND YOU WILL GET THE SAME RESULTS. IS IT IRONIC THAT MOST OF THE BLACK MALES THAT COME OUT SING ABOUT SEX BUT NOT IN A ROMANTIC WAY. IS IT IRONIC THAT THIS GUY AND JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE CAN GET CLASSY SONGS THAT YOU CAN PLAY 10 YEARS FROM NOW BUT YOU WILL NOT HERE ANY RADIO PLAYING THE DREAMS” TELL LATICIA YOUR BEAUTICIAN YOUR HAIR IS GONE NEED FIXIN” THIS FOOL ACTUALLY SINGS THAT!!!! PLEASE PEOPLE WAKE UP
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:33 PM
I NEVER CARED FOR DRAKE. HALLE IS GORGEOUS.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:34 PM
First of all I am going to need you to stop writting in all caps like a little kid. Second, I like his underground cd. To me he doesn’t sound like Lil’ Wayne or any other rapper for that matter. But if you think so then maybe your hearing sucks because his eclocution is way better than Lil’ Wayne’s. Third, he is not responsible for those girls, their parents are.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:34 PM
Halle and Tyra are gorgeous but Tyra is still annoying as hell.
Drake is not attractive. At all. The end.
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:39 PM
WHY IS IT THAT ROBIN THICK AND JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE CAN RECORD QUALITY SONGS THAT YOU CAN PLAY 5 YEARS FROM NOW BUT THE DREAM HAS A SONG AND I QUOTE ” TELL LATICIA YO BEAUTICIAN YO HAIR GONE NEED FIXIN WHEN WE FINISH” THIS IS A SONG PEOPLE!!! WHAT THE HELL? AND DREAM IS VICE PRESIDENT OF A LABEL. THIS IS A CONSPIRACY TO KILL THE BLACK LOVE I BLACK MUSIC
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:40 PM
WHY IS IT THAT ROBIN THICK AND JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE CAN RECORD QUALITY SONGS THAT YOU CAN PLAY 5 YEARS FROM NOW BUT THE DREAM HAS A SONG AND I QUOTE ” TELL LATICIA YO BEAUTICIAN YO HAIR GONE NEED FIXIN WHEN WE FINISH” THIS IS A SONG PEOPLE!!!

Thu, November 12, 2009 3:44 PM
I still say Drake looks like a milder version of the Elephant Man…
Thu, November 12, 2009 3:49 PM
@ sweetgabrown
Get off your soapbox! It’s not as if Robin Thicke doesn’t have real talent. Black, white or purple, the man can sing. I’m sure you can find a more worthy cause to channel that energy. Cuz this ain’t it…
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:20 PM
The Dream cannot sing and whoever thinks he does needs to pull the wax out of their ears.
coo’ing, ooh and ahh is NOT singing.
Justin and Robin have soul (accidently)
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:26 PM
@ sweetgabrown
Stop it! I like Robin Thicke. Love his voice, its so smooth & sexy! I know how he looked b4 but hey can still sing. Looks nice too
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:29 PM
Halle looks Gorgeous!!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:30 PM
I actually think Drake doesn’t look bad in that picture.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:32 PM
Yall is killing me w/ yall Drake comments!!!
Eversince I saw the face of the man behind “You’re the best” I can’t stomach him. He sounds wack and his looks puts him in the hell-to-the-naw status for me. Yuck!
Stop stressing Robin! If you know good music then SUPPORT it. Get off your soapbox already. Geesh!
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:33 PM
And can Drake not help the fact that his lips looks like he doin the “twan” pose?
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:34 PM
whatever about what this chick says…robin’s song ’sex therapy’ is the business.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:34 PM
Saw that Tyra show yesterday. And….she bugs me. She’s so corny. She has NO shot, like ZERO of EVER being the next Oprah. Just no. You never see O taking her friggin shoes off showing folks the hammertime in her shoe! Or playing dumb games with the guests. The show is just too high school for me. But whatev….
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:36 PM
CO-SIGN, CO-SIGN, CO-SIGN
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:36 PM
Your Gravvy is so funny. Ewww Lil wayne with no dreads.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:37 PM
lol @ accidently! jon b too.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:38 PM
And you never see O pulling up her skirt asking a celebrity guest to spray perfume between her legs or showing the hair under her armpits…..I could go on, but I won’t. Tyra, that ish ain’t cute.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:38 PM
This is totally random but why do so many of yall on here call so many of these male celebrities gay???… I mean from diddy, usher, omarion, bow wow & the list goes on. Do yall really believe that? Its stupid
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:43 PM
I’m over here ROTFLMBAO….
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:44 PM
Halle & Tyra so GEORGEOUSS !!!
DRAKE <3 LOVE U,LOVE YOUR MUSIC BABY !!!
ROBIN THICKE NO COMMENT ABOUT THIS …
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:47 PM
Tyra is hogging the camera as usual. Something about her makes me not like her. She’s too nuff! Robin Thicke can write and sing, end of. Drake is alright but I agree he ain’t no looker.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:49 PM
I see Tyra laid off the makeup since we all know Halle barely wears any anyway. You can see her freckles…cute! :-)
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:50 PM
Drake got them d*ck suckin lips…ewwwww!!!!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:51 PM
Tyra & Halle are beautiful women. Tyra is free-spirited and looks like a lot of fun. She does all those antics on her show because I think that is who she really is…..If you guys check out her site you will see that she is a really positive person. Go Ty Ty!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:52 PM
Because they ARE…& its obvious u know cuz pointed out the main ones!!!!!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:53 PM
TYRA IS SUCH A KISS ASS. NOT TO MENTION FAKER THEN A $6 DOLLAR BILL.
Thu, November 12, 2009 4:54 PM
u make a good point…just dont go overboard!!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:01 PM
:shock: What about Jay?
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:01 PM
Halle looks great, i noticed that both Tyra and Halle have the same skintone, but Halle’s skin just glows.
@Just me/sometimes when you have been around enough closet cases, you can spot em’.
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:05 PM
@ kandi
Girl please! All of those people are not gay. How are u SURE about it? I don’t think they are gay, its just crazy how yall always say that stuff. U must be gay?
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:06 PM
they look great, tyra has a lot of energy, and if she didn’t and was playing a caricature like 99% of the artists and people making money, then good for her. it’s a business, people. it’s working for her. and in you want business to work for you, take some damn notes.
the first thing to write down is that tyra, yes tyra, is where your next paycheck can come from. christina from channel espanol and joel mchale wouldn’t let you past the interns door. these other people are not out her creating opportunties for black females like tyra is, so you must be dumb as hell for resenting the person when this is the very reason others hate her.
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:15 PM
I don’t dislike Tyra but I don’t care for her either. Some black people will applaud a financially successful black person even if thee succes comes from them down or expoliting black people.
Please. Tyra is a pawn for her pupper masters. In my opinion, she constantly exploits black women issues as if women of other races/cultures don’t have their own issues to. I’m a bit tired of the complexion/hair/ethnicity/abusive women etc shows. All of them have placed some of the most ignorant black women on a platform to spew their ignorance. Tyra is 2 steps away from being a Jerry Springer knock-off.
No, I don’t ever see her reaching O’s status. Like I said, don’t dislike Ty but I won’t support her foolishness either. She’s like a man in drag now. So extra for no reason.
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:17 PM
who cares how da dude looks? He stopped being Jimmy from Degrassi a minute ago. He’s Drake and the fake “oh i cant stand drake” yet Forever is killing the charts. Fck outta here, i aint even on Drake like that cause Kanye still the beast but hate when people front. Oh u cant tell who it is, that was at the start, now Weezy got all these funny laughs he be throwing in there, all Drake takes from him now i guess is the “uh, ….yeah and all those sh!ts”. I aint saying he the best but to front like u dont be bumpin to da track when u hear it is rubbish. Forever is doing it, Every Girl, Off That with Jay Z, Successful with Trey Songz….plz clearly even if yall aint, someone gotta be feeling his music for him to be doing so well
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:17 PM
Excuse my typos. :D
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:28 PM
Drake stays Pouting….lol
And that picture of halle and trya is real pretty, halle stays looking YBF!
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:30 PM
the end result is the same…”conspiracy,” that shuts people’s ears.
what is very clear is that all the people making the decisions are stuck on portraying black with less and less black in it. currently, our 10 most beautiful black woman does not have one dark beauty on it.
joss stone leona lewis beyonce rihanna represent black female hitmakers, and black females are supposed to believe robin thicke or justin timerlake gives a sh*t about them.
i’m a “caramel” girl, black girl, and i know full well that kenya moore needs to be at the top of that damn black beauty list…not even stacy dash? smfh. i know that i will be erased too once i play these games. didn’t you hear paula patton is the new halley berry? that’s two shades gone already.
robin thicke must be the new denzel washington. it’s about staying aware, paying attention, and clearly some people aren’t. we can support artists, but need to act like we see something when there are no black people being given opportunities to star in the black persons role…it’s beyond ridiculous.
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:30 PM
You ain’t neva lied. A lot of these so call hard core rappers are getting banged out by other men or banging out trannies.
Tyra had a long term relationship with a woman in the WNB (Women Basketball League). Her management has gone to great lengths to make sure that never comes to light.
She treats her guests on her show like shit and the people who work for her even worse. Don’t let the public image fool you, LOL,LOL,LOL. What you see is the not real tyra….TRUST!
.
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:33 PM
drake stay poutin his lips… how u dewin?
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:37 PM
Oh I didn’t know there was another ‘just me’…will change mine. That’s just how I was feeling this moring. Oops
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:40 PM
& not allll these people yall claim are gay, are actually gay. It gets crazy when just about every male celebrity that tasha talk about, people want to claim they’re gay
Thu, November 12, 2009 5:45 PM
ok cool.
Thu, November 12, 2009 6:11 PM
if you own your own production, then who is telling you what to do? this point is valid for some people, and it’s great that you are thinking. but, there are some easy ways to identify if your suspicions are actually true. wendy williams has puppet masters. tyra got taught how to buy the strings.
nobody likes what tyra is saying. white men get pissed because she makes them think their may be some truth to racism and sexism which they want to believe is over. white women get upset because they think she favors black girls. and, black women get upset when she airs out because we feel (often rightly so) that the public will take what she says and apply it to us. is she was being pulled, these “string pullers” would of told her to shut her ass up by now.
…teens like it, and people who still need someone to say what to many of us seems obvious (yet still plays a role in their lives) like it.
is it exploitive? is that the reason 99% of her criticizers have come after her? no baby, it is because she has power…. she earned and uses it to get more and more power and determine her own fate and open doors (and, that scares non black people and men). how she uses it reflects on what she feels is the right way to do things. HOW SHE GOT IT is the lesson. and, yes she does open doors for black females in the fashion industry and in production.
if she treated her staff like crap, you would have already seen the exposes on joel mchale’s show, every angry little dude on youtube who can’t get a date, plus that resentful white woman from abc news. the shit would not be a secret.
Thu, November 12, 2009 6:15 PM
Whoever talkin about the way drake do his lips….nah that’s neyo wit all that damn pouting. He must think its sexy. Its NOT! & he always doin that like his swag & dancing is just so on point. Its NOT!!
Thu, November 12, 2009 6:17 PM
the sistas r looking lovely, good 4 them!
ewwww!! that darn drake…person. he looks like margarine that melted then put back in the fridge. smh. the grim reaper w/o the hood. lol @ the person who said drake-enstien. lol my fucking ass off. i do feel like i wanna shit when i see him…
luvs robin thicke – blue-eyed soul.
@ n-word diaries
i believe u. especially if she’s treating every1 like shit.
Thu, November 12, 2009 6:19 PM
You go T. I do not watch her, but I am proud of her. You can say what you want abut her and Drake, but they “are doing the damn thang.” Drake held out for an awesome contract so he will get what’s due to him, unlike these other wack rappers that are so eager to make it and come on the scene, but they end up broke in the end. Tyrah is getting paid because she studied Oprah and it is paying off. She doesn’t have to be exactly like Oprah because she is her own person and that would be boring. And then most of you would complain that is trying to be Oprah.
She is not studying fools and their b.s. If she did, she’d be broke and unhappy.
Thu, November 12, 2009 6:19 PM
i guess tyra part of the illuminati puppet show too.
she in the same boat w/ beyzilla, camel, harpo, rhi-fhi, kanye, weezy…
Thu, November 12, 2009 7:19 PM
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE MS HALLE BERRY.
Thu, November 12, 2009 8:05 PM
NONE of this..is that serious for the damn dissertations. Pushing black folks out of stuff they created is NOT NEW.Jazz, R&B, Hip Hop, Rock & Roll, the list goes on. Either you; dont support it, fix it or shut it up..really.
Thu, November 12, 2009 8:06 PM
i never knew tyra had freckles or am i seeing things anyway her and halle berry halle berry look good ! even though she is shady lls
drake ehh seems like a gimmick to me we’ll see he has “potential”
robin thicke been tryin to hard lately ! stay away from jay z i like the old robin ! sex therapy is good ! but that song with nicki minaj ehh stay away from the rappers PLEASE !
Thu, November 12, 2009 8:25 PM
Drake looks like Snoopy
Thu, November 12, 2009 8:34 PM
thanks mel, i don’t watch her either. those topics irk me. but, people set a standard with what they choose to insult and leave alone…when you know how impactful something is and why that’s being attacked by the big boys, it makes you want to say something. how many people wanted to be like oprah when letterman and everyone and their mama were hating on that woman? nobody did. we wanted to be ghetto after that shit.
like you said, tyra does not have to be the same. we do not have to buy everything she does. but, we should understand the game that’s being played around us and why others go so hard on her. just her being there is shaking them of insecurities that would come up and smack us in the face is she hadn’t been the one to take the second load of smacks.
Thu, November 12, 2009 9:39 PM
Drake is NOT attractive…at all….I wish Tyra would have looked normal….that would have been a great pic…Halle looks great!
Thu, November 12, 2009 9:59 PM
Ms O is IT….She says she is excited
Thu, November 12, 2009 10:01 PM
Halle hair is FAB indeed.
Thu, November 12, 2009 10:49 PM
Dang…am I the only one that think Drake is attractive? lmao
Thu, November 12, 2009 11:40 PM
Drake is not cute. Hate those saggy eyes.
Tyra wishes she looked half as good as Halle. Halle is ‘naturally’ gorgeous. Tyra is ugly w/o her glam squad.
Fri, November 13, 2009 12:04 AM
We call them DSLs and I aint talking bout no high speed internet!
Fri, November 13, 2009 12:08 AM
Just as a side-noye could people who post in full-caps please stop. It makes reading their comments difficult as it leaves one with the feeling that one is being shouted at. As a result people may skip over the comment as they find it annoying. It’s better to use normal case as people will still get the point one is trying to put across. Please guys, try not to write whole comments in full-caps, it might just achieve the opposite of what you’re trying to do.
Fri, November 13, 2009 12:29 AM
Halle and Tyra look great.
Drake… yea NO
I love Robin.
Fri, November 13, 2009 1:04 AM
Thats what i thought too
There was no need for the face
now the pic is ruined
Fri, November 13, 2009 1:09 AM
Amen to that
Fri, November 13, 2009 2:55 AM
idk if im still subscribed but if so i hope they send chris….i’ll pass on any pics of drake
Fri, November 13, 2009 3:15 AM
The Vibe vid was the realist I’ve seen Drake in a minute, because that video of him stepping on spilled milk is garbage. I hate that image for him. My hubby think he looks like Frankenstein..it’s those Jewish eyes..
____
Tyra is so pretty now with her REAL hair..Halle is so damn gorgeous!!
Fri, November 13, 2009 8:50 AM
Halle looks good….Tyra not too much. There’s something about Tyra that’s just too much for me. She really needs to cool it on the exaggerated facial expressions.
I absolutely love Robin Thicke…I can’t wait til his album drops :)
Fri, November 13, 2009 9:24 PM
cute pic Halle and Tyra ….
Sun, December 27, 2009 8:33 PM
Halle B & Tyra B fine, but Halle supa bangin!
