TwistedElegance™ Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 God, I love this show. Star Jones recently sat down for an interview with BlackVoices.com. And once again, asked about NeNe’s out of pocket a**, Star stayed classy… and said what every Black woman has been saying since it became CNN-level news that NeNe wouldn’t put a Star bonfire out with a spit ball. The show is getting a ton of pre-press mainly because Nene Leakes has been doing interviews about you. What went wrong with you and NeNe?This actually saddens me. Black women trashing other black women all for the sake of personal aggrandizement. When the cast was first announced, I was both excited and concerned. Excited that this was going to be the most diverse cast in prime-time reality programming and concerned because the media immediately started the drumroll of “can this many black women get along?” The four of us actually chatted about the unique opportunity we had to influence the perception of black women and the way we interact. We each brought something different to the show, so I had hoped we could avoid falling into the typical “snake charmer in your face loud bombastic black woman” stereotypical box that was expected. Some of us were more successful at our quest than others. I knew I wanted to approach the game intelligently, professionally and strategically, while keeping in mind my true purpose for being there – winning money for my charity. You have a lot of black female friends – Vanessa Bell Calloway, Natalie Cole and Holly Robinson Peete to name a few. Were you surprised at Nene’s personal attack on you and the implications that you don’t gel with other black women? Who are you telling! You know my girlfriend gatherings are legendary! But you’ll see this season on the show, at some point Nene attacked all the black women on the show and scared the other women to death with her aggressive approach. But to be fair, it is an approach that works for her kind of television interaction, as evidenced by the great ratings they generate. But it isn’t an approach that works in the professional environment and it isn’t an approach that most sisters use in interacting with each other. I would hope, as she becomes more exposed to a variety of professional situations, she will tone down the vitriolic emotional reactions and learn to express herself in manner that is more reflective of the majority of black women in America.

TwistedElegance™ Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 I've never really watched this show regularly but i will be watching this season just to see Nene's foolishness It's my fave "reality" show by far, something about it really draws me in. I find it enthralling. The contestants always start out so cool with each other but every season has a major beef. Last season was Holly Robinson Peete Vs. Cyndi Lauper, but nothing tops the season before with Joan Rivers Vs. Annie Duke. They were priceless. I can't believe Nene. "You stood there like Casper the ghost!"

janetDAYZ Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 We live in a world to where TV equates to TRUTH. Nene's on-camera antics only reinforces the stereotype of how black women are. What people dont realize is every single time your face is seen on television you are representing a certain community. She's a constant disgrace.
