Kenya Moore and Nene Leakes were both in Los Angeles to attend Golden Globes after parties. Kenya caused a bit of a ruckus for some tweets she made throwing shade at Lupita Nyong’o on Twitter. Watch the video for the highlights. It’s pretty much the first story so you only need to watch the first two or three minutes. Kenya apparently got some flack for the tweets and ended up taking them down. I must say when I watch the Golden Globes red carpet I noticed that Lupita was not the same humble wide-eyed girl she was last year. She did seem a bit haughty.
Lisa Vanderpump and Giggy make an appearance for a hot minute at minute twelve because Giggy went to some dog show thing.
Around the 16 minute mark one of the guys asks Porsha if she is a whore.
“Around the 16 minute mark one of the guys asks Porsha if she is a whore.”
LMAO if that aint Karma coming back. She’s come a long way since giving sermons.
Dammit Kenya. Stawp! You’re cleaning up your image this season, don’t start with the foolishness.
I don’t see anything wrong with it. If Lupita was a bish, she was a bish.
So she can’t say she was disappointed that Lupita wasn’t taking pics w/ people? I don’t get it. How is that newsworthy or shade?
There are other rumors about Lupita being rude and stuck up. I don’t think people want to call her out on it because she was the token girl last year. It is a shame though however if that is how she truly is.
Welp, Porsha the dumb ho, admits she has SEVERAL [loves] because she is a lover. More like she is a lover of $80 grand bags made of something so exotic, it would warrant an $80 grand price. Unicorn pussies is a good guess 🙂
I like Kenya, but ‘humble’ is not a word I would necessarily associate with her.
Nor would Kenya! (Call herself humble.)
Notice how porsha didn’t say no??! Lol
I like Kenya but who is the chick with the hat smacking her lips as she eats??? LAWD the heifer needs manners
I know, Porsha was raised in a barn, just gross!
I don’t get the outrage being thrown at Kenya for the tweet — it’s not like she used foul language about Lupito or something like that; just that she refused to take pics (implying her being rude). Has Lupito become some kind of queen or something and no one is allowed to say anything bad/negative about her because I didn’t get the memo.
Plus, I remember last year after one of the awards shows (maybe Globes maybe Oscars) Lupito was tweeting pics of herself with all kinds of celebs and “fangirling” out about being able to meet and take pics with them. So even if she had no idea who Kenya was (which grant it is likely) why not take pics with a fan at the after party?
Kenya shouldn’t have deleted the tweets — it implies she did something wrong.
*Lupita — damn autocorrect.
Wow….My thoughts exactly. If she is stating a fact then it can’t be shade. I don’t see the crime myself.
I agree. Kenya’s not the only one saying this stuff.
#1 No it wasn’t shade. The problem isnt’ that Lupita is untouchable. It’s that Kenya vocally gets in her feeling about too damned much. IMO. It’s messy. I like kenya and I want her to win, but she needs to pick a lane. Either she’s “That Chick’ or she’s mega sensitive and cares too much about whatever anyone says about her.
Kenya has problems with too many people. I want her to just focus on Mooses and Southern belles as it were and stop going up against the whole world.
Totally agree w/ you, there was nothing shady about it. People are always looking for a reason to criticize or crucify Kenya, smh.
And the issue is, Kenya is giving more (in the opinion of ignorant haters) reasons for them to criticize and crucify her. Just like if the Vivica thing is true, it’s no one’s fault but her. I’ve always been Team Kenya and still am, but in order for her to succeed she has to solely focus on getting her career back together and STOP pushing back the release date of that damn haircare line. It should have been an event filmed for the show.
I’d love to see her win after keeping quiet, because that will be the best revenge after all the shit she was put through by the women on this show.
The thing I like about Kenya has a lot to do with her flaws. I think we see her embrace them more. She’s far from perfect. And that’s okay.

That is exactly what I think. While Claudia has that self-deprecating sense of humor, Kenya is kind of different. I think TT put it best: Kenya embraces her flaws. She seems to be very self-reflective.
I don’t understand the hype! Kenya Moore was around way before Lupita became famous. I’m sure Lupita knew who she was. Perhaps she didn’t want to talk a pic with her. Perhaps her team (you know manager, publicist, etc.) advised her not to take the pic.
Lupita is big screen material, Kenya is bottom of the Walmart $5 movie bin material. Just a desperate woman looking for attention when was the last time she was in any box office hit? Don’t worry I’ll gladly wait on someone to give me that answer.
What does that have to do with Lupita being rude? Imagine how she treats her fans.
It’s not rude to not want to take a picture with a total stranger. That’s actually very normal behavior from a normal human being.
As someone who does not wished to be photographed at every damn little thing, I understand her right not to be photographed. However, she is a celebrity attending a party with professional photographers everywhere. The entire reason that she, Kenya and everyone else was there is in first place was to be photographed. There are red carpets, step and repeats and roaming photogs throughout the event. Whether or not she knew who Kenya was, and I’m going to guess she did not. I’m sure Kenya flashed her winning pageant smile, stated she was a fan, and asked for a photo that would take less than a minute. She gave this entire speech about being dark skinned and celebrating dark skinned women that was inspirational to many. To refuse a selfie in a very public setting that is designed to be photographed is ridiculous.

@jtspills Exactly!
@JD Any celeb who doesn’t want to take pictures with total strangers (aka “fans”) is in the wrong damn business. They get paid obscene amounts of $$ for playing make believe *because* they have fans.
Sorry, I’m not going to judge someone, celebrity or not, for not wanting to take a picture with someone. It’s bare bones and quite simple to me. It’s ludicrous. Again, it’s very self-entitled to think that you are OWED a picture just because you want one from a celebrity.
Kenya took the tweet down, because it was a ridiculous thing to complain about, and for once, she received hate about something worth hating on.
J.D., you’re a bit dramatic on this one. Did you have a bad red carpet experience??? 😉
@B.price . What’s your point ? Theres no harm in taking a picture with a fan . No one is above being gracious. Lupita is an actress , not a brain surgeon, nor did she come up with a cure for cancer or ALS. On the grand scheme of things being an actress is trivial. Lupita’s behavior was rude she should of taken the picture .
“She should have taken the picture”
Wow, you sound like an entitled prick. It’s…almost funny.
@ J.D. — no what is almost funny is that you think someone saying an actress — a person who is paid obscene amounts of money for playing make believe for a few months a year (at most) — should be gracious to fans (i.e., the sole reason they can command that obsene money for playing make believe) is somehow sounding like an “entitled dick.” The “entitled dicks” are the celebs who think they are “above” being gracious to fans.
@J.D. and you sound like a limp prick.
@J.D. It’s…almost tragic.
@angie If by “gracious to fans” you mean “taking a selife”, then yes darling, that IS sounding like an entitled prick.
I don’t even know what Lupita does, and I could care less. Complaining about someone not wanting to take a picture with you is beyond weird and obsessive. Grow a pair.
@J.D. You’re a real needle dick the bug fucker.

Kenya said Taylor Swift was nice. But Lupita was being a b*tch and a stuck up snob. Just because she’s been in a couple of movies that makes it OK for her treat people like she is above them? You’re an idiot.
Chirp #crickets are sounding off to the answer you want Bprice. lol nice comparison, big screen to Walmart movie bin. lol What exactly is the issue about pictures. Sometimes people don’t feel it at that moment but not to say they won’t feel it later. IJS Don’t think either lady has an issue at all just a big night and probably a hectic one too with too much activity going at the same time. It can be overwhelming you think? lol
Feels like a setup coming…Be careful Lupita…that’s how it starts…you are the chosen one and accepted into the reindeer club, then BOOM, the carpet is pulled from under your feet and the walk of shame is uncomfortable when you have to pass common-folk again. All of this press for simply a request to take a picture with you…from someone in the industry, who, in your acceptance speech words “looks like you”…
#team Kenya
I agree that Lupita was definitely haughty! On the Red Carpet, Ryan Searest asked about her role in Star Wars and if she could share anything about it. She answered before he finished the question with a short and rude, “no I can’t!” Even Ryan was taken aback by the way she answered the question.
Ryan was stupid for asking her about Star Wars. Everyone knows she, and any others involved in the movie, can’t say anything.
I see your point however, there are always some things they can say about it… if only to explain where the process is or even that they cant say much. Stars do it all the time and they are gracious in their reply. They dont give short snippy answers. Also, unless they are in the middle of dinner, they should be willing to take pics with fans who pay $12.50 to see their movies.
I did not find her being haughty in her response to Ryan. She was being very playful and gave him the answer he knew he was going to get because she can’t say anything about the movie. Her response, and the way she did it, was not uncommon.
I can’t believe folks are here cheering on Kenya for this nonsense. Lupita (or anyone for that matter) is not obligated to take a picture with someone–just because they asked. You ask for something and you don’t get it, so you take it to the tweets? Kenya is a nasty piece of work. In her own way, she is as shitty a person as Brandi.
no one is cheering Kenya or saying anything of the kind about Lupita
I don’t think Kenya is a nasty piece of work. Just kind of let down that someone she respects was unwilling to “play the celebrity game” and take a picture with her. It’s petty.
And Kenya could NEVER be as bad as Brandi, even on her worst day!
Well, that love affair was so short-lived. Que sera, sera.
Oh, hello, J.D., welcome back.
<3
Back from the glory hole already? Sure doesn’t take you long.
Cocktail weinie back in the house.
Isn’t the Golden Globes a party a celebration, award ceremony and quite frankly a place for people in the industry to network, meet, take pictures etc? It isn’t like Lupita was with her family or friends and Kenya butted in and asked for a picture? I can understand Lupita declining, but at an event like the Golden Globes?
Taylor Swift was nice. Why can’t Lupita act more like her?
Don’t get it twisted. Neither Nene nor Kenya was at the actual Golden Globes. They were at after parties.

Kenya, you know when you’re not liked EVERYTHING you say and or do will be staunchly scrutinized. After re-watching it or re-reading what you Tweeted on Lupita, it read as a re-cap; that’s it, no more no less. You were telling your tweet-followers how the night went. Not that you should curtail your 1st Amendment Right any more than anyone else does (in your world), but you gotta know that when it comes to YOU there may be a whole nutha set of rules. It’s unfair, I know, but sadly, it is.
And look closely at Porsha’s expression & body language when your name airs…there’s a deep-seated contempt she has for you. I used to think it was part of “Group Think”, you know when it’s announced “Who Not to Like”, herd mentality take form quickly [racism is born out of this same pathology]. But with Porsha…and you? Dare I say this…we think she really holds her own automony when it comes to her disdain for you. But why? We’re sure folks are reminding her she’s younger & prettier (they’re certainly not reminding her she’s smarter), so why the prolonged contempt, Porsha? #OCD.
Tip: Kenya, when it comes to Tweeting about A-listers [whomever] try not to be so impulsive, get Brandon’s or your Aunt’s advice first. They seem to be very level-headed. Not saying you aren’t, but they can see clearly…outside opinion of you. You seem to live in your own world (which we love by the way), where it’s flirty-free energy abound! No room there to consider the detractor’s take on something prior to your voicing it. Oddly enough, this is why your either loved or hated. No middle ground where it comes to you–makes for the most interesting characters in the world. 🙂
pardon typos.
Kenya is way better looking than Porsha.
Lori (itn’t that her aunt’s name too?), we do too. But can recall Porsha being on WWHL one episode and a caller called in asking her do she think that Kenya is jealous of her youth & beauty? Porsha didn’t really nod one way or the other in response, but she did look relieved that some may really believe that warped concept. She beamed a little glow too. Yeah, deep down Porsha knows better, but happy that others may not. Kenya looks way better than a lot of females in their 30s, even some in their 20s. Love when 40 + year olds do it up like that!
LOL The shade they threw at Kenya was hilarious! “Gotta learn how to block sometime!” I’m dead. “She probably didn’t know who she was!”
That looks to be a great job for Porsha!
Finally watched the clip…I have been against all things Dish Nation because I refuse to support Porsha. That being said, I truly hate how Rickey Smiley has awarded ignorance by allowing Porsha a job on that show. She is truly classless, ignorant, ghetto and amongst other things a proud whore with loose morals. Being the only 20’s something black female at my organization, I have a lot to prove and I take pride in myself and dialect because I know that my employers in the boardroom see many like Porsha as the norm and me as the exception.
Young women, especially young black women should not feel that they can carry themselves the way Porsha does and be rewarded for doing so. She is truly a disgrace.
Well said.
Jess, without even knowing you, i almost feel like a proud mom. I can just see you carrying yourself with dignity and decorum as you make your way up the corporate ladder. That was me many years ago, right out of law school, one of few black women in a corporate law setting. Mark my words, you will go far, young lady!
You guys are being ridiculous. It’s not rude to NOT want to take a picture with someone. Yes, there are certain loose “responsibilities” that celebrities know they must accept in their industry, but it doesn’t reflect upon their character when they choose to be a real normal human being and decide “hey, I don’t feel like taking a picture today with a stranger.” People crying about how she won’t take a picture with someone else should GET OVER THEMSELVES.
My God, this is the problem with society: everyone feels so ENTITLED to everything from everyone else.
It’s not about being entitled to a picture with a celeb or that a celeb *has* to take pics with fans. It is about being criticized for pointing out that a celeb wasn’t gracious enough to take a pic with a fan . Celeb doesn’t want to take a picture with a fan? Fine –celeb (and his/her fanboys/girls) shouldn’t complain when word gets out about it.
My God, this is the problem with society: the stupid — it burns!
Hmmm, I’m not Lupita’s fanboy. Idk who she is or what she does. I really do live under a rock when it comes to the entertainment industry. What I do know is that it is ridiculous for ANYONE to complain about a celebrity not wanting to take a picture with them. lol lol lol
” Fine –celeb shouldn’t complain when word gets out about it.”
And is Lupita complaining about people criticizing her? Where are the receipts for that? I thought Kenya was the one who retracted her tweet? I AM confused and stupid about this part.
1. You sure act like one.
2. No — it’s ridiculous to defend a celeb not wanting to take a picture with a fan at a press event where to point is to be seen/take pictures. They get paid obscene amounts of money for playing make believe a few months a year *because* they have fans/show up at events like this TO BE SEEN. You’re so wrong about this, you need a new word for wrong.
3. WTF do you think the Dish network segment was about (and hence the TOPIC of this thread) if not complaining that Kenya criticized Lupita for not taking a pic with her? I can’t tell you for sure if you are confused or stupid but I can guarantee it’s one of the two.
1. lol ok
2. I’m not so much defending Lupita. I’m more so criticizing people for really complaining about someone not wanting to take a picture with Kenya Moore. If she refused to take a picture with Obama, I could care less. Sorry you’re so butt-hurt about this here dire situation. There’s an ointment for that. It’s called having a life.
3. Does DISH network work for Lupita? I didn’t know they were her PR machine. This isn’t a new issue. Celebrities refuse pictures for fans ALL the time, on the red carpet and off. #SelfieGate
For the last time (and I’ll type slowly as you seem to have difficulty following): NO ONE IS COMPLAINING THAT LUPITA DIDN’T WANT TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH KENYA MOORE. Only you think anyone is saying that. What we are saying is Dish et al trying to act like it was SO BAD for Kenya to tweet that Lupita didn’t want to take a pic at a public, press event and that she, as a fan, was disappointed, is bullshit and they (Dish et al) are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.
For the love of fuck! Try to keep up.
And for the last time, YOU SHOULD BE CRITICIZED FOR COMPLAINING THAT A CELEBRITY DIDN’T TAKE A PICTURE WITH YOU. It is as you said, “SO BAD”!
{sigh} dumb as a box of rocks.
“Dish et al trying to act like it was SO BAD for Kenya to tweet that Lupita didn’t want to take a pic”
They are right. It IS “SO BAD” for kenya to tweet that Lupita didn’t want to take a pic. She’s being self-entitled, and so is anyone else who thinks celebrities should always take selfies with their fans.
Grow the fuck up.
And learn what “last time” means. I’m done explaining shit to you, so move it along, bub.
JD, I think you are missing the context because you are not a Kenya fan and you don’t know anything about Lupita. Lupita was an unknown who was in a major movie. She then gave speeches about dark skinned women owning their beauty and not comparing themselves negatively to lighter skinned women. Kenya admired Lupita for this. I honestly don’t think Lupita has any idea who Kenya is. I don’t think it was housewife shade, Lupita has spent most of her life living (ironically) in the country of Kenya. I am sure Kenya asked politely because of her respect for Lupita as a woman. Kenya was not “feeling entitled” IMO, she had one of those disappointing moments when a fan meets someone they feel respectful toward and then IRL they come off ass a arrogant. Lupita has been famous for a year. She’s not Angelina Jolie famous. Kenya mentioned others more famous than Lupita who were gracious and she was disappointed. That’s it. There is nothing “so bad” about her feelings toward someone she once held in high regard and is now disappointed in.
You don’t even know who Lupita is and yet you seem to think you understand the situation. Have a seat.

I wish I were sorrier, but nothing you said matters. Kenya can be disappointed as a fan, but bashing Lupita as though it is something innately wrong with refusing a picture is self-entitled. This is a fun merry-go-round. <3

@J.D. can TT, OO, Angie, and I be bridesmaids at the wedding?
I think it’s rude especially since lupita was taking pics with other people all night
Maybe it was meant to be rude. Maybe she doesn’t like Kenya. Maybe she’s entitled to not take pictures with people she doesn’t know, or doesn’t like, or doesn’t respect. Last time I checked, this was a free country and “no” was still a word in our vocabulary. If Kenya wanted to bitch about it, that’s free speech. IMO petty, self-entitled, and arrogant free speech, but free speech nonetheless.
This is why you have no tokens, ‘rica. Seriously.

JD…if you and ‘rica find a glory hole and consummate the affair, can I take a picture?
I’m on one blog defending lupita and on another defending Kenya. I have seen Kenya’s twitter. I know what a big deal Lupita was to her. I can’t explain Lupita’s behavior. I’ve never heard one rumor about her being bitchy. I just don’t see her as that based on what I’ve seen of her. I think Kenya is understandably hurt. I still think she should have just been quiet about this. Keep improving her image and stop beefing. And i think she agrees since she deleted her tweet.
Lupita may have been afraid Kenya would out shine her. She’s a brick house.
Kenya might have restated that I wanted to get a picture with Lupita but I could not. If she had not have typed by girl it would have been ok. She really needs to watch what she says because everyone is trying to find something wrong. There is no harm in stating that you were disappointed you could not get a picture with someone. After all you could just read the excitement in Kenya’s words when Lupita won the Oscar. As someone stated earlier Lupita has not been so nice lately. You know sometimes you can get afraid with all those people around you, a million lights flashing around you sometimes you might want to scream. It does not matter that you are famous and that is what you chose to do. It can be overwhelming. Fame is not all its cracked up to be. Unfortunately people will be gunning for you just ask Claudia they will dig up everything the can.
Lupita is hungry and didnt want to take a pic because she didnt want to share the spotlight. She probably wanted to be photographed alone. Lupita IS a big deal to Kenya. She was probably very dissapointed. Nothing wrong with tweeting however, instead of annoyance, she should have tweeted a sense of dissapointment. That sentiment would have been better received…
I’ve seen Kenya tweet positive things about Lupita in the past. Praising her looks, her clothes, her performance.
Regarding Porsha, I do think it was very funny when she said in her talking head about how Nene has left the building and you now have NayNay. Good comedic timing….
Porsha is in her element. I like her energy and that she is keeping it moving. I refuse to judge her or anybody else on how they live their life as long as they live it to the full on purpose and in their own way. Judge not lest ye be judged. If people don’t like Porsha, don’t watch her but at least she is working and making her way in the world as a single woman. Same with Kenya if you don’t like her then don’t watch her, she’s making her way in a world that is not always on her side but does it really matter. Goodness people seem to get in their feelings and think they are the only ones with feelings…REALLY. So the issue is what…taking a picture, is it resolved? Does a celebrity even know when a fan has an issue about a photo? Do they spend that kind of time on social media to even check it out. lol
I despise Porsha on RHOA. But I think she is a good fit for Dish Nation.

I was never a Kenya fan but this year I’ve started to like her on both RHOA and CA. If she wants to capitalize on CA to further her career she needs to tone it back. Right or wrong Lupita was entitled to photograph with whomever. Kenya needs to curb her emotions or she will get lumped with NeNe as no filter. Anyone notice Porsha did not say no when asked if she was a whore? How did she get this job?
That’s why Ricky Smiley is smiling.
exactly, Rose. I enjoy Kenya beating up on The Beasts over complaining about stupid stuff like this.
Okay, feeling “entitled” to a picture was not the original issue. “Someone” commenting repetitively framed the situation that way. No, she was bummed and probably felt brushed off. I don’t see any entitlement issues.
Well, throw the “bummed” and feeling “brushed off” theories out the window. After deleting her tweets, Kenya took time to tweet that *she* wasn’t the one that asked for a photograph. It was a friend of hers. Hence, *she* wasn’t snubbed at all. Lupita wasn’t turning down *her* because *she* didn’t ask for the photo. Kenya spends a lot of time trying to dispel things that are stupid. If she’s so confident, beautiful and intelligent, then why is she so insecure?
Good question.

You all are hilarious. Lupita is an A-list Hollywood darling with several major awards for one of her 2 movies that Kenya tried to call her out on. She knows who Kenya was and simply didn’t want to be associated with a 2-bit reality star that is adding to the very stereotypes most legitimate black actresses are probably fighting against. Plain and simple.
I didn’t think about this, but this could probably be true. While Kenya is very successful, I’m sure some Hollywood elite frown upon her reality tv show stints. It’s a somewhat elitist view to take though.
Lupita has lived in Kenya until very recently. I doubt she has any idea who Kenya Moore is.

Some of these Kenya haters are so uncouth. They think just because someone has money or fame that they are allowed to treat people like crap.
That is why they always defend a big fat ex stripper like Nene. Someone that constantly feels the need to throw around her alleged wealth and brag about how “rich” she is.
That behavior is not classy.
Not wanting to taking a picture =/= treating people like crap.
The point of Kenya’s tweet was not just that Lupita did not want to take a photo it was that she had a tude about being asked. She could have politely declined.

Maybe Lupita isn’t Team Twirl? Anyway I don’t blame her… I wouldn’t want to take a picture with a RH, either. It’s not like Kenya is some random fan so I really don’t see the big deal.
Uhhhhhhhhhh so is it just me or was Porsha like embarrassing-level trying to act like Nene?
Right!! It’s like nene and Tamar had a baby and it came out to be dumbass porsha… I can’t even lol
Porsha does try to act like Nene and Phaedra and Kenya. She is fake as fuck. But I do think (mostly because they give her lines on Dish Nation) it’s a good fit for her.

I was vacationing in Orlando when the Casey Anthony trial was going on and went to the court house just to be nosey. I never got my picture taken with Nancy Grace because she was flooded with fans and I didn’t want to bother her. I honestly felt sorry for her because people would literally descend on her wanting a picture. Women would wait outside of the broadcast studio HLN/CNN set up just waiting for her to come out.
Nancy NEVER turned any of them down. She not only took a picture with everyone that asked.. but took the time to ask their name, where they were from, how they were doing, and she was very personable. She even listened to weirdos give their theories and opinions on Casey Anthony and what they think happened. Very patient. Some of them I would have told them to shut the hell up because they made no sense… But she had a smile on her face the entire time.
She even hugged her fans, even the ones that looked like they could use a shower and a change of clothes. People were literally roasting in the hot sun, sweating, waiting to descend on her for a picture.
I didn’t expect her to be the way she was, because of her persona on TV. But she was a “REAL” southern belle, not a faux southern belle ie Phaedra. She even invited some people to go backstage to the broadcast area and invited them to watch her broadcast in person.
Nancy is a real southern belle. No doubt. With the requisite helping of batshit crazy.

Don’t care about the pic turndown, but how Adorable was that little girl and the pitts? I heart them.
Kenya was ungracious and catty in her tweet. She didn’t just say that Lupita didn’t take a photo with her. No, Kenya denigrated Lupita’s career, pointing out that Lu’s only done two movies, just shady and unnecessary. That’s why she deleted it.
She has only done two? I thought it was on with one on the way? Movies. She went for OH GOSH GOLLY WOW I AM SO HUMBLE AND GRATEFUL to “No pictures please” in 12 months?

Do we even know the situation? Did Kenya ask Lupita directly or was there a publicist fielding requests? Having worked in the industry, many people at the award shows have handlers. Publicists, stylists (Who do you think fans out the gown’s trains on the red carpet?), dates and/or relatives, maybe Kenya was mad because she couldn’t get to Lupita, through all her people. She seems mad that “lil” Lupita has an entourage.
Who knows tho… maybe Lupita has a clause that states that all photos must be taken with Lupita’s own cell phone. Nothing worse than being tagged in an unflattering photo ten hours after it was taken. “giggle”
LOL How is Lupita famous from doing 2 movies? Kenya should pick out better celebrities to take pictures with.
Haven’t you been read like yesterday’s news already? Tool Bye!
TD, do you have some sort of a problem? JD was here long before you and will be here long after you are gone. Have a seat.

J.D., come here my dear and sit next to me (pat, pat). You’re no wallflower, which is why I like you. No one puts Baby in a corner. 🙂
idk who TD is, which is why I’ve paid him as much attention as the dust on my ceiling fan all throughout this blog post.
Only TT is allowed to be mean to me, because she’s my queen. I have a nice pair of boxing gloves for everyone else though. <3
Kenya is so gracious and always takes pics with fans, the other day she got mad at a fan for posting their pic, Kenya only took it because she wanted to please the fan but made the fan promise not to post it, the fan did anyway. That’s why she said she wishes to always stay humble. lupita is entitled to take pics with whom she wants and we are entitled to think she’s an arrogant snob
Kenya just commented on wendy Williams’ Ig that she asked Lupita for her friend and Lupita denied her friend a pic it wasn’t for Kenya.
Mea Culpa.
Just felt like someone came for OO and Angie, both of whom I respect.
I think they can both handle themselves.
JD on the other hand is a special flower. And he’s my special flower. We can try to educate him, but not harm him. 🙂

Let me get this straight. Kenya who can do no wrong on this site asked Lupita who is a class act to pose with her for a photo. Lupita says no and Kenya gets on Twitter to complain. Most celebs who go to theses parties don’t ask other people to pose for pics so the lesser celeb can post it on Instagram to show off. Wish Kenya would do her thing not throw shade and bat her eyelashes who me innocent act. She has had some real accomplishments.
At the 18:51 mark is a pic of Porsha with her birth year and the year 2015 like she died or something.
