well, except for the fact that the "unprofessional introduction" was never read on air.

they kinda asked for it though for putting it right before her interview.

Anxiety said:

Exactly. In the few clips I've seen of her, her attempts to stand on her own come across less than appealing.

I was expecting her to go thermonuclear for a second, that was lightweight. It's similar to what happened to Janet & Tyler Perry last year, seems like local news stations go stupid every so often.

Wooooow!!!!!

she came off looking like an idiot who had no idea what was going on.

Yeah but the anchor might have been talkin smack before the camera was on and Solange "Knowz" had to nip it in the bud.

How come I'm hearing the Monkees "Mary Mary" drums at the start of the interview?

I love this chick. Unlike her sister, she actually has a personality and isn't afraid to show it.

Guess she doesn't want to spend the rest of her career answering questions about Michael and Jermaine--I mean Beyonce and Jay-Z. Start nipping it early.

She might have to answer some of those questions to HAVE a career.

Cinnie said:

Too true.

Cinnie said:

prior to the interview's start, the woman asked a question about jay z's recent problems. it was off camera and should have stayed off camera. instead she started off with attitude about something nobody watching knew anything about. she's a dumbass,

sassybritches said:

i think she wanted to make it clear she wouldn't continue that line of questioning

Cinnie said:

on live television? they had the decency to at least ask her off-camera.

We can all laugh at Solange, but ironically her new album's a better piece of work than anything her sister has released.

Anxiety said:

yeah but who knows how un-cute it got the moment before they went on-air.

it coulda been like "and your mama's a whore, hey we're here with Solang Knows.."

that was strange.

...and awkward .

JasmineFire said:

Yes it was

Wow....

UncleGrandpa said:

At least in her case, she stood her ground(whether folks think she's being idiotic or not).

All Janet did was sit passively and take the abuse with a silly grin on her face while Tyler was the one who got blood boiled.

Boy, I was so disappointed with Janet I stopped feeling sorry for her(as far as the media bashing goes) she allowed people to walk all over her.

Harlepolis said:

yeah,Janet needs to stop being so wimpy.She should have a "Fuck you!" attitude about the whole mess.

"Yeah,I showed my titty,you got a fuckin' problem with that?!" I bet they would leave her alone after that.

The media is like ALOT of squares who have a "domestic sheep" mentality.

Once you show abit of toughness,,,,they back off.

SoulAlive said:

Just like Maddy.


SOlange new album is very very well put together. Live instrumentation, old school feel, very original, and she sounds vibrant compared to Amy and Joss attempts at the genere. I give it up to her!

Harlepolis said:

Particularly in Janet’s case and to some extent the old adage applies, the media treats you the way you allow them to treat you. Janet has never really come across as a strong assertive woman.

Solange may have gotten a little overzealous in letting folks know. 'I am not the one.'

Ok that was odd. So I take it they showed a clip regarding Bey and Jay-Z. Then came back after a break or something and launched into the Solange interview?
