I'll admit it, it truly got the best of my curiosity. Folks are talking more about this than President Obama's re-election.
I wonder if Lady Michelle is 'twirling' too. She is forty and fabulous... :reddancer:
I wouldn't doubt that she and Mr. President are watching that show.
Shimmie, leave it to you to find a twirling smilie! LOL!!

It doesn't make sense to me either, prolly cause we watched the movie and can't see where it fits (I'm thinking she watched too)...She's prolly the only one who can explain it, prolly wanted to make a snarky comeback to Porscha calling her old, which imo proves that she is old (at least older than Porscha)...
And twirling after that comment made it a sensation, everyone wanted to know what Gone with the Wind Fabulous is ...

The same here... I love that movie.
From what I gather with Kenya and the Gone with the wind fabulous comment, is that 'she's crazy....It doesn't make any sense to me. More than likely I'll be asking folks to please explain it.

Welp... you know I had to look up the episode and watch it, cause I'm nosey. No sense in pretending, I wanted to know what that fabulous was all about.
In the episode, NeNe said , 'Now I know you think that dress has you thinking ..... "
The twirl started when Porsha called her 40 something......... and that's when Kenya shot up with a twirl and said, That's right, I am 40 and fabulous.... (something to that effect). And that's when the bad language started. Way over the top. Way over.
When NeNe calmed her down, and asked if they could all just talk about it calmly (paraphrasing), that's when the twirl really started and She said she was 'Gone with the wind, fabulous.'
It doesn't connect with the actual movie.
I'll be truthful. I 'm going to have to sit with one of my 'homegirls', who watches all the shows and just be humble and ask her to explain it all to me. I'm being real here.

And this has been my understated point. We can't, as believers, attempt to go by feel and personal dislike while pointing to others as bad witnesses to Christ without providing specific proof.erplexed It's got to be more than an "I just don't like you." Neither can it be a "she didn't dot her 'i's' like I do so she's not authentic." But that sentiment is rampant in the CF, unfortunately. Be specific with the proofs or else it comes off as personal dislike. There are plenty of people I personally dislike for some reason or other but I would not dare accuse them of being less of a christian than "myself."
This actually turns a lot of people off of christianity and they regularly tell me of such. It's not that they will have to make a change in their beliefs and behavior, it's just that this type of self-righteousness witnessed in this whole thread leaves many without boundaries. They are not sure where they will stand with those who consider themselves holier. Those are left out of the in-crowd. One the one hand, they hear that, to become a christian, one must confess belief and adherence to Christ - that works do not earn them heaven. Then they hear the complete opposite with nitpicking about little things (not big blaring abominations admonished in the scriptures) that someone else misinterprets as anti-Christ...against a fellow believer in the L-rd. It's confusion for them...so they run rather than make that decision. Sometimes, a person who is transparent enough to say that they are imperfect is a better witness to the truth than someone who judges a fellow believer over something that is not obviously against Christ. It would be nice if tv land could witness Mary Mary doing something particularly christian , but then again, as a few stated, some people do not wish to be filmed in private prayer. As for their demeanor....Peter didn't leave behind his burly ruggedness either. It was a process. Planks and splinters.
auparavant I never judged either one of those set of sisters. So I had no need to prove anything nor a need to support my not liking the Mowry girls. In this thread the topic is about their reality show. I don't like them anymore because they both were whining too much and one seemed kinda mean. So again I don't like them no mo anywayz!
I stated the obvious for The Mary's song "Go Get It". Until you listen to the lyrics you don't know what genre it belongs too because of the pumping bass and beat. You can do the Wooble off that song w/o noticing the message because of the jamming club like beat. In the show its an underlying air that Sony wants the hot stuff to blow up the charts for the world at large and the manager too. They want to get paid as most do in that business. Its a part of the business of Music.
Its not just Gospel Musicians that can crossover to another audience and possibly trip over themselves. Secular musicians face that challenge also. Certain secular artist don't want to come off as overtly sexual, too hip hop, R & B, soft etc. Jazz musicians face the same challenges as some don't want to be put in the contemporary jazz category nor feed that audience so the stick to what they consider real jazz.
Please don't make assumptions because there was nothing to get riled up about in my statement or observation. You went way off course because obviously you feel some kinda way about some so called type cast Christians. I'm special ed Christian so I surely don't go around pointing my finger at other folks walk. Now I gotta go so I'll two step to Kurt Franklin's "Smile" while my lil cousins Wooble in the club off Mary Mary "Go Getcho Blessing".

I'm apologizing for my 'tone' which sounds 'harsh' yet if we were speaking in person, you would be able to see that it's not.
In all honesty, I'm just disappointed with the world and it's craziness and it concerns me when I see the behaviour of the world in the behaviour of Christians.
You know what @CaliRocks? There's just too much backsliding and fence sitting when it doesn't have to be.
Anyway, we can pray for each other. My prayer is for peace and understanding, no more stones, just peace.
Yes we can!! I pray that you have peace as well

So I decided to watch some TV tonight and I just so happened to catch Tia and Tamera. Tia was learning to pole dance erplexed....Glamorizing pole dancing for impressionable young girls and even grown women who have no idea that it's false god worship and pagan to the core... Yep, that's good wholesome television alright

Well, for another assumption, not really. I'm more secular than religious. What happened was that you didn't quite quantify your statement and left it hanging for others to assume that's what you meant...sheer impression. My apologies. It just seemed you found them lacking spiritually according to the way this thread went.
We're cool.

pebbles, yes I'm 'twirling' and I'm fabulous Pebs, btw: I also have Phaedra and Apollo's Exercise DVD. I'd love to share a review. I like it
I have huge library of exercise and dance videos and dvd's (years of collecting them) and what I like about this one is that it''s African American. No shade on the other dvd's, nor their cultures, however our culture just needs to represented and have it's own.
Whoever wants a review of the DVD, I'll be very happy to share. Maybe I should start another thread or I'll ask our OP of this thread if it's okay to post it here.

Iwanthealthyhair67 and Laela... I love the old shows. They had good taste. No curse words, no sex (it wasn't blatant), just wholesome dialogue. I enjoy the "Hallmark" Channel and Turner Classic Movies... the old Film Noir...
What hurts me is that when African Americans finally had their very own, it was 99% sexual content and violence. XXX rated and it was called 'Black Exploitation'. I was so ashamed of BET and still am. I mean, come on guys, represent the quality of us. We don't all cuss, drink, take drugs, make babies without both the mother and father as happily married. The Cosby show was the Black Recue to television. I am so serious about this.
I couldn't handle the reality shows with all of the cussing, and drinking, fighting, and sexual disgraces. It doesn't have to be that way.
*sigh* I'm not trying to 'shade' anyone. The shade is already pulled back for all the world to see... and it's not a pretty picture.
Oh...Healthy Hair, the wobble is a line dance. It's done quite a lot at weddings. It's a slight variation to the Electric Slide (slight).

BTW: Do you happen to know what "Gone with the Wind, Fabulous" acutally means?
I'm so serious with this question. No shade. I just want an answer.
It just doesn't fit in with the movie, Gone with the Wind. 
Thanks in advance.

You didn't ask me, but I think she must've just been feeling the wind blowing through her hair and dress and it was fabulous darling lol! She has a song about it, maybe that will give more detail. I haven't listened to it so idk.
Thanks DaiseeDay... Your view makes a lot of sense.
It was a 'spur of the moment type of comment not really related to the movie its self? Thinking back to the episode, I can see that. She can sing, too? She really is fabulous. I think she said she looks like Beyonce.

Side thought on Television:
I feel some kind of way about the baby shows where they are showing almost the whole Jerusalem down there for married women having children (or singles). It's just....I dunno...immodest. Sex is natural....birth is natural and none of it is dirty. But I feel they go too far. Your wife's legs all exposed and spread eagle having a child...for the eyes of those in the delivery room only. This is just mho. But it's been bothering me for awhile.

Is that question for me?? No shade at all... I just don't know. I thought he was saying she's fab like Scarlett but the Twirl part... IDK
Thanks Sweetie.
It's hilarious how everyone, even those who oppose the show, have gotten 'wind' of this. This gone with the Wind Fabulous has taken a life of it's own.
I have to agree
It's a 'private' matter and only those such as the doctor (or midwife), medical attendansts and husband, should be seeing what is going on with that area.

Oxygen Drops Plans for ‘All My Babies’ Mamas’
By BRIAN STELTERThe cable channel Oxygen has scrapped a show in development called “All My Babies’ Mamas” after the promotion of an online petition that condemned the channel, accusing it of exploiting and stereotyping black children and families.
“As part of our development process, we have reviewed casting and decided not to move forward with the special,” the channel said in a statement.
Sabrina Lamb, an author who started the petition against the show last month, said she was pleased that Oxygen “has heard the outrage of over 37,000 consumers and shareholders who said, ‘enough is enough.’”
The show idea, with the working title of “All My Babies’ Mamas,” was announced by Oxygen in late December. The channel said the show would be a one-hour special, not a regular series — though channels routinely use specials as a way to decide whether to order a series.
“All My Babies’ Mamas” was scheduled to have its premiere in the spring, but it was “cast-contingent,” meaning it would go ahead only if the talent — in this case, the father, the mothers and the children — were on board.
Then a Web site belonging to the production company behind the special, DiGa Vision, was broken into. A pitch reel soon popped up on YouTube that previewed how DiGa had sold the special to Oxygen: with video clips of the rapper Shawty Lo and his 11 children born to 10 women. A graphic read, “1 man, 10 baby mamas, 11 kids. Oh, and a new girlfriend … who is the same age as his oldest kids.”
Other families were considered for the special, as well. But the production company’s cameras had interviewed Shawty Lo, whose name is Carlos Walker, and his girlfriends and had even been present on Father’s Day last year.
The video clips disgusted Ms. Lamb, who rallied a number of activists and black commentators to support her petition on Change.org. It called for Oxygen to cancel the show and threatened an advertiser boycott. “With your voice,” the petition read, “this ugliness will not see international airwaves.”
Oxygen and the producers, meanwhile, were still considering who, if anyone, to cast for the show — a process that was sped up by the online uproar.
An Oxygen spokeswoman declined to comment on what specific effect the petition had on the decision-making. But the petition had 37,000 signatures by Tuesday morning, when copies of it were delivered to Oxygen in New York and its parent company, Comcast, in Philadelphia.
On Tuesday afternoon, Oxygen confirmed rumors that the special was not going to be produced, after all.

Whoa... Laela !!! Is this perfect timing or what? God heard me complaining and put this in the news; and you posted for me to see it.
I'm glad this woman took a stand. Good for her!
And thank you for sharing this. It just blesses me to see someone stand up to these producers and see the producers back down for a change, and not those with a just cause.
The time is coming and quite soon where a lot of these 'empires' are going to fall, never to rise again with their negative presentations of our culture and that of the Church's culture as well. The blasphemers of the Church are going to be 'stilled' in their words against us. Remember Balam who was paid to curse the children of Israel? Each time he tried to speak a curse over them, the words would not come forth. Even his donkey had words to say to him, to try and talk some sense into him.

I was listening to the Steve Harvey show this morning. He asked the atheist to stop writing stuff on his twitter page because he professes his faith in God. He said he's not going to stop so they need to cut it out.
His team said you not supposed to stop etc. It was nice hearing someone stand up like that.
