Yea this interview made me like her

Yes she is . I enjoyed her interview with willie d on geto boys podcast

...and she looks 53.

@@SeekingGreetings Is it a crime to look your age? She is 53, looks 53 and still looks great.

@@sherwood9917 That's not the crime. 😆

@@SeekingGreetings What is the crime?

I say she looks 56 lol. But looks way better now. Idk why

Nothing to do with age it’s more about social intelligence mixed with common sense and awareness

@@zahraawolowo6506probable correlation with age not causation

👍🏾

lol

😂🤣😭😭

😂😂😂

i’m crying 😂😂

Iam here from the future to let you know. Hes been called Mr.Clean.

I do kinda wish she would do housewives cause she’s so unapologetically herself and comes off funny sometimes

Cap!

Divorce is horrible to go through, but I am so glad your mom found the peace and joy she deserved!

​@simonkalibwani5832 Some women would rather be single then have to worry about the threats to her life that cheating brings (diseases, jealously...etc). Piece of mind has more weight than being married to a cheater.

And she will die alone!

@theresonlyonejd Yall kill me with that. Being married is not the end all be all (yes I'm married). I'd rather my daughter have peace & die alone than put up with bulls%&_ in order to say she died a married woman. That bullsh$@$ will probably send her to an early grave anyway.

*Loved her and married her…

​@@MrsMoore1 💯

I was thinking the same thing. She seems dope.

I really like Tamika.

At least Tameka is being truthful and not ashamed of her past relationship. If Chrystal didn't want to be honest, why go on the breakfast club.

I like her too

I like Tameka too! Straight no chaser.

Nigga she is old but she cool

CAUSE SHE IS OLD

@@titohelper3569OKKKK!!!!! She’s 53, and looks 53…….why wouldn’t she?!?!?

Her worth is 0 considering she’s single and she judges based off mistakes but as a gf nobody is perfect which allows you to become the wife so accept your flaws but not his not worth a cent and was nvr worth it it’s clear she got what she wanted out the deal

I guarantee she’s going to date a old man or be single for ever she not realistic with mistakes and cheaters 🤷🏾‍♂️

​@@c-memusic6951she forgave neyo alot until he started having babies outside the marriage.

@@blakex2699not at all she said she left when she first “heard “ things before and came back cause it wasn’t true the baby was a reason to leave she nvr wanted to be there

Um no she need to shut up. She realized her worth after the 3rdchild Neyo had on her. She left cause he started to publicly embarrass her. She trying to come off all like she don’t play. When he played with her for years. Abd she took it. She’s Trash

if you watch her r&b money interview with tank and j.valentine youll see just how much of a superstar stylus she is - without her the cover of ushers confessions album wouldve looked different

Exactly!

Me too!

I laughed so damn hard😂😂😂

I read this as soon as he said it!!! 😂😂😂

Hilarious 😂

Ghetto vibe!

Not next to Crystal

It was no way to do better then Confessions...and not only that "Moving Moutains" was one of the worst songs on there and he shot a video for it!! Just horrible song

FActs and that Album was genuinely beautiful. Top to bottom. I had that sucker on repeat. 8701 Usher Raymond Here I Stand Usher v Usher Confessions❤️❤️

It was also 2008.....different climate for album sales

Terrible roll out for that album🤣🤣🤣🤣but beautiful album. This one song is...Long time...sso beautiful​@@cheatcodecharlie

​@@cheatcodecharlieI wouldn't say it was a horrible song, but its one of those album songs that should have been track eleven that you listen to sometimes. Play in the background type. It absolutely did not need a video. He should have released before I met you. That was required.

Word. Neyo was trying to be slick lol He know damn well he was talking about himself in that clip.

He sure did!! I’m glad she was smart enough to pick up on it though.

When you look back and really listen he really did tell on himself. 😂😂😂 I didn’t think about that at the time of the interview but wow .

Lol I don't think that was the first time he cheated on her

So true....women have more power than they realize

My ex husband didn’t think I’d leave and we had been married 26 years and together since teen years. He started having affairs midlife and I left. He is remarried and still bitter.

Most people know the entire history of Neyo and Chrystal. The relationship started with cheating except she was the one he cheated with. Its hard to say cheating because they both was doing it but she got tired. Monyetta in a recent interview admitted he didn't cheat on her, they did it together. Chrystal has been through a lot, first foster care issues, stripping as she said to pay the bills and she was in same sex relationships but wanted more out of life. Monyetta said Neyo was her best friend and that's obviously his personality. The video did come out with him and Chrystal "money can't buy" a great video and that's when Monyetta found out. He always say his music is his personal diary so to speak, hes very honest. I believe she's feels her character looks bad but its not true, she's awesome in her survival. Therefore there's no need to sell a fake story. Thanks to him she has a story line to build on, and make those bags.

She respects her body? I’m just asking but wasn’t she a stripper? She decided to cut her loses because she knew she already secured “the bag”. Her words not mine.

You respect a porn star?!?!? 🤡

It’s called exercising your options not cheating!

Exactly I’ve cheated and it was definitely a choice

Two things can be truth. You can make the choice to cheat, and regret that choice, and acknowledge it was a mistake. Just like it’s a choice for that partner can choose to forgive and walk away, or work it out. Either of those choices can always end of as regretful. Then realize it was a mistake to do so.

@@youngboy2140 I agree with you. For clarity, this is how I personally view cheating. I don’t view it as a mistake, as there’s too many opportunities between the thought and the action to thing about what you’re doing and change your mind.

@@theresonlyonejduntil someone cheats on you, then you crying wolf.

She looks horrible!

I totally agree

Y'all gon keep following that false narrative huh...

Loud and wrong.

​@@lisaellis7137WELL TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED MAMAS!

That "I'm getting to my bag period" comment just proved this broad big 🚩

She already addressed this on the show. Him and Monyetta were already divorced when she got with him. So, it isn't how she got him. Y'all want a gotcha moment so bad when he as the man is the one who betrayed both of the families he helped create.

🎩🧢

Thank you. People sleep on that album but it was/is great!!!

It was a good album. Had memorable tracks like ‘Love in this club’, ‘What’s a man to do’ and ‘His mistakes’ on it. But Raymond vs Raymond and 8701 come on top for me.

Right.

I really loved that album as well!!

It was DEFINITELY underrated! Like people really need to listen to that grown @$$ album!

He had a baby on her

@@esw122lol if I’m not mistaken when she found out the other girl had his baby and was pregnant with the second one… Crystal kept it cute in the interview lol

He had children with other women while they were married. It would be absolutely done then.

Ten years, three kids and it wasn't enough for him to stay faithful.

Ikr shit

Oh please Neyo was cheating on for years and she stayed. After he got a woman pregnant the 2nd time that’s when she left.

😂😂😂 every damn time

Why are you even using that terminology? Aren't you Black?

😂

When she said that , the question that came to my mind was so if there weren't any nasty diseases in every single person was clean, would you share like don't make that the main decision unless you would share if everyone was clean?

​@@dnadancetribedancenowafric2986😂 That's a stupid question and statement.

She was unknowingly sharing her husband for many years. I wonder how many diseases she has had...

Luckily she’s light skinned, so she wail always attract quality. However, she is a single mom. If she doesn’t want to be cheated, she has no choice but to lower her standards.

Took me a while to find this comment, but yessss. I respect how she handled herself during that interview and how she knows her worth! Loving yourself is far more important than staying for the kids etc. It speaks volumes. Her children will respect her decision one day.

Her worth is the gutter as she’s a former porn star!

Is it becuz you and Jess dark skinned?

Why does that have to be reason? What made you ask that question? ​@qikstar

@@guestguest3756 hmmm just stating the obvious

You can definitely tell why Usher was smitten.

​@@ddoubleu170Their marriage lasted less than three years.

She’s ghetto AF!

Obviously, the world's opinion of her being a dark skinned older woman had something to do with that. ​@@teresamarie7460

With Age comes Mature and Growth from Life's Lesson. Tameka has definitely healed from her Tragedies and turned them into Testimonies❤

that's what I said. I think she wanted out already.

I don't think she wanted out. I believe it's the fact that he was not just cheating, but he had and was having children outside of his marriage. It's one thing to move past cheating It's a whole other having kids as a constant reminder. Not to mention it appears he was basically cheating the whole marriage. Plus Neyo is so triflin so many other men and women stop getting married when you know you are not willing to be faithful.

@@abi-ci8lh Neyo had two kids on this woman,,, u sound crazy

@@blackbox1911Yes, ✌️two babies. It’s no secret.

Good luck with the side babies and STDs. Desperate women really make it hard out here.

Thank you 🙏🏾

Thank you because you know this what some ppl come for lol my self too 😅

That’s all anybody wanna hear them for… but they always gonna tell this story of triumph like they self made lol

This comment needs more likes

​@@IAMWATER7Tamika was Usher's stylist....she was "self-made" neither of these women claimed self-made nor bashed the men...so next
