Greek paraphernalia was used in A Different World when Debbie Allen was involved. No outrage. Molly & Tiffany were always depicted as AKAs since season 1. Molly & Tiffany embraced each other with the call and hand sign that are trade marked and no one said one word. It’s fake outage honestly.
@Sadie Baxter exactly! Where has everyone been? AKA paraphernalia was also in Molly's apartment and office at the firm. I believe that Tiffany's husband Derrick is Greek as well and that was mentioned in season 1 when Molly and Tiffany greeted each other with the call and hand sign at the party. This is all about the hate people have for Amanda. That is all.
I think that wearing the attire pushed things over the line. I remember that Debbie Allen used fictional Greek paraphernalia. Where Greek members appeared in the movie Debbie got approval. Issa did not get permission. Building relationships go a long way. I am not a Greek, but even I have known for years that their symbols are precious to them. I also think that these are different times and people have become more sensitive to issues of appropriation today than they were yesterday. Our symbols matter. I do not think that AKAs are being petty.
Look. TRI DELTA Is one of the most ELITIST WHITE sororities around. I personally was told your father had to be “somebody” for you to be considered. Reese Witherspoon played a tri-delt in a movie? No outrage? Sometimes you are not as important as you think you are
NeNe needs to remember she was NOT on good terms with most of these women when Gregg passed. These ladies reached out as a COURTESY, inspite of how NeNe treated some of these people. They showed love bc they loved Gregg... THAT'S the difference😒☕
Nene wasn't on good terms when she paid for all the food for Todd mother funeral. Nene wasn't talking to marlo when she help pay for her brother's funeral as well and she put that to the side and helped out so I don't blame her give her that same grace
I watched Dave Chappelle special and he had me laughing the whole time. Except at the end when he was talking about the trans comic who killed her self from all them hate comments she was getting. Dave Chappelle is great and he is good at his craft. He’s a comedian people that’s what comedians do they make fun of people, if you don’t like it the don’t watch it. I don’t care what anyone says Dave Chappelle is the best, and yes I am a gay man.
Al is so handsome and engaging. I love how calm and giggly he is, he just exudes good vibes and positivity! He’s so comfortable in who he is and i love how jabs just pass through him. Although i enjoy all three personalities here I also admire that he tries to do his homework on things for the most part! Keep it up guys you give me something to watch while I’m bored at work. The only issue i had with the Dave Chapelle is that he used Da Baby killing someone as an example. Da Baby actually killed in self defense of himself and his family and that’s why there were no outrage. However, he was speaking about the cancel culture as well as the lack of support of one another within the African American community. I agreed with Dave and enjoyed his special.
Okay well tell your headquarters that, because they didn't like it. That's so weird to see yall online defending someone wearing your shield. This just proves another point as to why there was a divide b/w the AKAs. No wonder my Founder Myra Davis Hemmings threw the deuces up lol
Everyone loves giving these stupid ass agreements and adding 💚💗 to say they are a soror. If you were a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha you would know our shield and several things that are connected to our likeness is trademarked. We are protected our brand nothing more nothing less.
Yes AL👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽!! Great comebacks for Dineva tonight. Him and Claudia like to make you the butt of the jokes like you are a simp. Had Que, looking crazy. He likes to dish it but can’t take it. BRAVO 👏🏽
NeNe those house wives don't like you. It was out of respect for the loss of your husband. So yeah they pitched in to get flowers be grateful and quiet❣
In this instance with Claudia , right message wrong messenger. Claudia message was right but she was the wrong one to say it since Nene was not referring to her.
I like AL. I hope it’s not true that he was fired because of Claudia. Claudia’s remarks were in very poor taste. Nee Nee lost her husband she may say anything at this point. NeeNee is speaking from a very dark hurt place. Claudia just had to tell us she sent flowers which was petty. Then she went on to say nobody owes Nee Nee anything. Claudia could have kept that nasty remark. The word on the street is when Al posted what Claudia said on his IG page then offered a public apology to Nee Nee, Claudia was pisst off “allegedly” and had Al fired from the show. If this is true I won’t be tuning in anymore because that was a snake move. I challenge everyone to stop watching if Al was in fact fired. Bring back Al!
@@deeand975 OMG girl you a lie for real? al is gone?! Oh no hunny…. *checks Al’s instagram* … and i mean sometimes people have beef and you still have to try to be cordial and people will take advantage of that and still have something smart to say. But who knows. Al needs to come back periodt. Although I still love me some Claudia and Q!
My problem with Q is as intelligent as he appears to be, he has an extremely irritating, selectively devoted inability to find compassion or extend grace to anyone he can’t relate to. I witness him dismissing other folks plight way too often, but when it’s something that affects him, he is the text book sufferer of mistreatment and goes on to produces sermons, illustrating how wrong something or someone is. Get off that imaginary high horse and extend compassion to ppl that you don’t understand like you want ppl to do for you. --And I agree with him regarding Dave Chapelle being given room to sound off on how he feels and putting cancel culture to bed.
NeNe is ungrateful and mean. I don't like how she treats other people. She must have amnesia regarding her past as a stripper who snag a rich client from the pole that she was working. She wasn't born into wealth, she screwed her way into it. And now has the nerve to act superior to other's.
Ya I remember when Greg and Nene were having some problems and he went on a radio show saying that once she got some money she started acting different. I believed every word of it
I agree with Q about Nene's attitude about the flowers. It's the arrogance for me. She looks down on people "she" thinks are beneath her anyway. Cynthia didn't go to the lounge that day, so what, she flew in the next week and Nene pretended to appreciate the gesture.
I agreed wholeheartedly with Dineva on this particular show. He was spot on, and of course, the majority of Black people, who will ALWAYS be homophobic to varying degrees, will not agree. Boosie is pressed, and Floyd does not care for fem presenting gay males. The reason why Floyd is good friends with Jason is because Jason presents masculine. Black men are generally super uncomfortable with femininity in other males.
Before Lil Nas ever came out as gay Boosie has been shading him.. Boosie attacked Dwayne and Gabrielle’s daughter before she ever came out identifying as a girl. This has nothing to do with femininity, it has to do with the FACT Boosie is a homosexual and hates that about himself.
@Bianca Culpo Dwayne Wade's son isn't a girl or their daughter, he's biologically male. Stop with that nonsense/foolishness you're spouting there. It's his SON, NOT HIS DAUGHTER.
Ive been defending Claudia all over Beyonces internet today cause I dont like how theyre trying to play you. They couldnt wait to post what you said in response to Nene but was absent when you gave a hearfelt condolence to Nene by name and spoke highly of their love and respect for Greg. You pushed the beef aside to offer her sincere comfort and you took an extra step to send a group bereavement. They acting like they havent signed 1 card at the office and pitched in on some flowers for a coworker before. You tried girl.
Girl I was at work trynna figure out why the Shaderoom had her name in they headlines, I was like damn come on 5 o'clock so I can get home to watch and see for myself.
The timing of someone being there for you shouldn’t matter the most. The fact that they were there for you PERIOD should matter. The friendship wasn’t a priority anymore so why or how did nene expect Cynthia to be there in a swift manner
Because thats what she always thought. She expected Cynthia to run after her, as always, no matter how much she mistreated her. That was their "frienship." And Cynthia wised up and finally... "Got out."
Grief is a journey.... I'm still having moments over loved ones who died 20+ years ago. Whenever someone takes time to show compassion it's a blessing & gift.
First of all Nene should appreciate getting anything, why would she speak on that? she knows the ladies loved Greg and somehow as usual Nene has made this about her, the fact that Cynthia showed up at all says a lot considering all that Nene has said about her
Q should have digged on AL and Claudia on that painted nails situation. That man did not to have to say that to his fan. Idc painted nails ain't hurting nobody. This is what's wrong with the world
Our people hate Amanda for being the daughter of a caribbean woman, being light skinned, having curly hair, ,being intelligent and speaking up. Most of the hate she gets she posts and it's crazy funny because folks really hate because they don't understand what she's talking about..I'm thankful the internet has shone the light on the short bus riders trying to take over society. How is Drake hot to everyone?
You may be right about Amanda but I think you missed one thing: Amanda comes off as a Ms. Know It All! She’s aggressive in her opinions and the truth is she may know it all (I’m the same way) but it’s annoying and comes off as preachy!
No one cares that Amanda's mother is from the Caribbean anymore than we care that her father is African American. And are we really going there with the light skin and curly hair? Claudia is light skinned with curly hair and she doesn't get the vitriol that Amanda gets becasue Claudia is an annoying, loudmouth know-it-all. It is Amanda's abrasive personality and delivery that keep her in hot water. I make it a practice not to underestimate the intelligence of others. You'd be surprised at how much can be learned from people who may not have been formally educated and who do not articulate in standard English. Let's make no assumptions.
People only say Amanda's personality is abrasive and aggressive because she doesn't sugar coat what she says, mince her words, or coddle your feelings. I understand it's not what you say but how you say it, however, people these days don't like any sort of truth. Folks want you to give them reality all soft and sweet with a bow on it. They want you to coddle their feelings and take the sting out of it. All while you get to be disrespectful as heck. Everyone is not going to fake it for you. And the truth never is pretty.
@@TiffanyRayneOfficial I don't know about others but I think that she's aggressive and abrasive. Often times as women, Black women in particular, we are called aggressive for simply asserting our opinions. I don't think that this is the case with Amanda though. You don't have to be rude or conversely, sugar coat your words to get your point across. There is a happy medium. The truth can be beautiful, it can be ugly, it can run the gamut of human emotions. Delivery is everything.
NeNe is acting the same way towards these ladies before and after Gregg passed. Plenty of people chip in on flowers. She should be lucky she got them. Instead she wants to be all petty and talk about the price on a radio show. Obviously she didn't even say thank you to Claudia and gave a second hand thank you though a co worker. Naw sis, you treated people like garbage and then get mad when they are not their for you. She thought that everyone was going to come to her aid and uplift her and to pretend to give a damn about people so they will feel sorry for her thus maybe to spring board that to getting back on RHOA.
I’m glad Claudia mentioned Tori Spelling. I was shocked and appalled at how she looks like Wendy. Spent 250k in surgery(allegedly) and face is still challenged. So tragic..😏
I hollered when they cracked on Funky and the commercials. Al skin is glowing. Claudia thank you for keeping it real! Love this show. And please absolutely do not ever have Hazel on the show.
EXACTLY! it was homophobic! Wtf else are we supposed to gleam from that comment! And having a gay friend or associate doesn’t mean you can’t be homophobic or say things that are homophobic
I Agree! It was ABOUT GREG NOT NENE. Her actions AFTER GREG'S DEATH SHOWED THE REASON HER RELATIONSHIPS WITH THOSE WOMEN WERE FRACTURED. She has ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT ATTENTION SEEKING AND SAID MANY TIMES THAT IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY WITH HER. My Mom died a few years ago and yes, there were people whom I had been there for who didn't call nor come by. Yes, it was hurtful but IT WASN'T ABOUT ME BCUZ MY MOM'S LIFE AND HER CHRISTIAN LOVE SHE SHOWED TOWARDS OTHERS SPOKE FOR HER. I Just realized who my TRUE Friends were At That Time. NeNe has shown on numerous Occasions that she's NOT a friend to MANY & she Should STOP USING GREG'S DEATH TO CONTINUE BEEFS THAT SHE HERSELF CREATED. GREG WAS COOL AND WAS RESPECTED BY ALL. Maybe she should try to live her life in such a way where she will be Respected
Yes it and it's getting pretty annoying. He WAS my favorite but now he's so bias and hypocritical. He just excuses lil naz trolling behavior. Lil boosie keeps being asked about lil nas while being interviewed. Hes not just bringing up that troll up. Its like because naz is famous and nice looking, que just cannot see other's pov because he personalizes and internalizes it. Then he comes of angry and super unfair. He sees his community as prefect and that is not ok. And its every show! I miss light hearted funky. I cant even go to his page because he rarely makes videos anymore. 😣
@@Angel-gp6tx I disagree wholeheartedly…. Funky goes in on all of us when deserving. Gay people are not off the read them down list. Been following him for years. Trust me you truly need to open up the old links. Do your research before you make such statements. Thank you 🙏🏽
What kind of reversed logic is this? Boosie doesn't have to comment on Lil Nas. He doesn't have to say he'd beat his ass or threaten to kill him. Just because an interviewer asks you questions to start drama doesn't mean you need to take the bait. Boosie has been talking crap for a minute and finally Lil Nas does one trolling thing to Boosie and now it's too much? GTFO!!
@@teeyateeyah233 he changed his stance on the Dave Chappelle situation.. (go back a few shows.. he was livid)…he was not feeling him or what he had to say about the trans community… (without even watching the special.. )… Q is definitely very sensitive/ bias when it comes to the LGBTQ community and he does make excuses and for a lot of things when it comes to the LGBTQ community.. I love him but he has shown this side of him time and time again… 🤷🏾♀️…
Leave gay people alone? Didn’t Nas X come for boosie saying they was doing a song together. Tired of the gays getting to say what they want but a straight person replied they wrong! Gtfoh. If you gay be gay but don’t try to force everybody to be gay with you. Straight people ain’t trying to push they straight love life on y’all! Damn
Comedy is comedy…But Claudia gets defensive when ever ppl recourse to her alleged past. Y’all gotta stop with all of this selectivity 😂. However, as always, this was a GREAT show!
Right? Going off about people being sensitive when you get sensitive and teary eyed every other episode lol It’s easy to tell someone to take a joke till the joke’s on you.
While sometimes a cheap laugh will yield some dividends, “Good” comedy isn’t just about making fun of somebody. Dave Chapelle, Richard Pryor, etc.. made bank from social commentary delivered through comedy. People don’t get mad at being part of a joke, especially if the artist is authentic in the observation; they get mad when they are the joke.
Typical Nene trying to belittle someone who's trying to be in support of her in her time of sorrow!!! Now why didn't she contact Claudia on her own to thank her!!! SMH
Nene couldn't handle Claudia. Claudia likes to talk things out and discuss issues that the ladies on rhoa. I remember Nene trying to get away from Claudia one episode of housewives. It was hilarious 😂
Nene couldn't handle Claudia. Claudia likes to talk things out and discuss issues that the ladies on rhoa. I remember Nene trying to get away from Claudia one episode of housewives. It was hilarious 😂 It got too real for Nene so she fled the scene.
I was listening to other blogs in the regards to what Claudia said about NENE and her antics.. Claudia didn't say anything bad at all.. Nene just need grieve quietly.. It's too soon for her to do interviews with any bloggers.
I’m starting to like Al more then Q Unbiased opinions, Q gets protestish on gay topics more than anything and misses the point completely. I get Q is who he is. But jus as he can see the full view on other topics, see the full view on all.
What has Q said that's not true in terms of the LGBTQ community? Would you not want a Black person to defend our community, when some negatively address our community?
I agree. He gets too emotional during gay topics. Al is able to remain objective because Lil Nas did poke the bear. Boosie was wrong for telling Lil Nas to off himself tho. That was taking it too far
@@blkmaverick03 Of course I'd want and expect you to defend who you are. But to NOT see the wrong, unbalanced and have a big bully behavior is Hypocritical ... we all understand that black lives should matter I jus feel Q and majority of the black skinned LBGTQ finally have there voices heard now they yelling at everybody they personally identify with. Not who they REALLY agree with. .. I'm super proud sexual identification doesn't define you. But black lives still don't matter so don't be so privileged that anyone is wrong and gets canceled who not like u
Claudia and Q are so right when it comes to death. I'm glad you guys brought this up, Nene needs to show more class with this, no one had to do anything appreciate people who cared enough. Q is right it matters when people come around a couple weeks later when it gets quite.
Ppl not understanding that they tried to show Empathy towards Nene at the beginning of his cancer and she disrespected everyone I hate to say it but she's getting what she dish out
@President Joe Biden or you can look at it in a positive way and say that she’s loyal to the people that she loves and don’t want them to be seen in a negative light.
its funny that Q is JUST arriving at this epiphany because he refused to watch not just this one. Watch all of the specials and its clear this has been very planned and well intentioned. but one must "have ears to hear". 🤷🏽♀️
Nas offered a olive branch. And boosie fed right into it. Boosie been having Nas name in his mouth. He shouldn't even care. He is definitely on Nas hard.
I really love this show. Claudia, I want to say you offer a very real perspective that I can appreciate. Nene is grieving and you would think, she wouldn't feel the need to speak negatively of others after she's lost the love of her life. Grieving doesn't give you the right to act a fool. It just doesn't.
Al is probably the calming breeze on this show, becaus we there's a limit to which one could take when disrespected for having a different opinion. Q gets triggered a lot about issues and it's usually not healthy when having a discourse. You really don't have to be messy just to put your point across. Naa don't call anyone's opinion,a mess because you don't agree with it. 🤷🏾♀️ Glad they got to read each other back at the end and that's typically classic Al taking it all in stride. All love 💞 Love you Claudia ❤️
Nene as* I’m sensitive with her loss but look she has always been a mean girl period! They was there for Greg no one owes her nothing and what’s so sad is that currently on Instagram blogs and RU-vid with Atlatien or whoever she is they was dragging Claudia for these very same words oh but they gave no smoke to Funky!! Bias a little SMH 🤦🏽♀️ Claudia said nothing wrong nor did Funky plus someone loosing a love one is not a gateway to be an a** IJS and that is JMO!!
Just like a person can be racist and have Black family and friends.....a person can have LBTQ+ family and friends and be transphobic or homophobic. When we are privileged, we need to be careful with our selective outrage and dismissing folks.
Yvonne Orgi’s character Molly has had an AKA mug on her desk in a past season and it was always known the characters Molly and Tiffany are AKA sorority sisters, so could be some petty business happening 🤷🏽♀️
The One thing I Love about Mr DC is, He walked away from 50M, for his right to be himself. He does not run through his money, so if you cancel him, OH WELL, It would not bother him one bit financially! Say what you believe and stand on it, if your belief does no harm.
It was really nice of that Boss Lady to gift employees with the tickets and 10 grand. May her Cup continue to overflow, and never run empty. 2 Corinthians 9:7- Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
I agree with Al. The dialogue with the trans community may be uncomfortable but it’s been necessary. Plus trans isn’t monolithic just like being black isn’t? Everyone would be better off listening more before reacting.
I think Hazel E is very beautiful HOWEVER she needs to pick a different foundation. That's the second picture I've seen where it looks like she's using highlight for the whole face.
I definitely don't look at Hazel and think beauty. More importantly, I think she should get her attitude and personality tweaked under the knife cause counseling isn't helping...too bad that's not a thing.
Personally as a Transperson...I feel we dont need to continue running this conversation into the ground.. .like enough already ,We are still attempting to get past being black/African americans gaining respect and Equality..in a country our ancestors built without benefits and guaranteed inheritances allowed or even promised to other immigrants who arrived in this land. Everytime someone feels there feelings may or may not be addressed or discredited,or even violated shouldn't be made a national issue. It takes away from the rights dialogue, We as a community need to keep the focus on the main rights issues as by now it should be understood after a few centuries of civil unrest...coupled with the ignorance already ingrained within the judicial system that there is a process with every request we as the public wish to be in law. Unfortunately we need to jump through a few flaming hoops and jagged hurdles to get to a place of satisfaction...It's unacceptable to use force when your speaking two or three different languages..to achieve the same goal. The Unlevel playing field still exists..
*I hope y’all have watched ‘Closer’ before the next time y’all talk about this Dave Chapelle situation. No shade, but if you haven’t seen it you really don’t have a dog in the fight. * I love “Cancel Culture,” it holds people responsible and puts our energy behind those that don’t seek to undermine our freedom, equality and justice. Just like y’all called Caitlyn Jenner a Trump supporter, so is Kanye and 50 cent, so I don’t support them either. We talked about Stacy Dash- she betrayed us also. Candace Owens, Terry Crews, all of em- repeat offenders. Hazel E is a colorist, multiple offenses, I don’t phuck with her either. We cancelled R. Kelly, rightfully so, right? It’s about time Black folks started boycotting folks that ain’t for us. Others have been doing it for years. * If comedians can’t make a joke without insulting a whole group of people, are they really funny? * Lil Boosie look my dad age and he 64. Boosie what, 37? He need to focus on his health. From the looks of it he going down quick! *Nene is petty, surprise! She’s always had unreasonable expectations of friendship and loyalty. Self-centered with ambitions to be more specialer than other people, in addition to her many positive attributes.
The sorority knows that its not about licensing ..... I mean I'm sure that's an issue as an organization. What I'm referring to is " that night " it was about Amanda seales having the letters on this is about them not liking the actress
Exactly because it was clear from season 1 that Yvonne and Amanda’s characters were both AKAs and it was never a problem before. If it was Yvonne wearing the colors instead of Amanda there wouldn’t be this kind of outrage
This! Because the big drama came from one user on Twitter, she was mad they even had a fictional character being apart of a sorority.. it’s really not that deep, at all! They go hard for these sororities like they’re willing to die for it, Chile goodbye
Thank you funky...you dont need all them people in your face when someone passes away....Its overwhelming...You need them to show up three - six months later when you still going through it and everyone else has moved on...
