Who cares she's a nobody...

I haven't even heard about this show.

Im watching it now on the new Centric station channel 280 on Time Warner Cable, it's showing previous episodes and everything. Tracy hasn't dated in five years since the death of her hubby. She was talking to a grief counselor about it. The Jones magazine was something she did in honor of her deceased husband.

The show exist... Kendall is helping her at a photo shoot now on this episode.

naw i am NOT watching!!!

Just from seeing the commercials she comes across as a bougie bitch with too much attitude and no real standing to back it up.

"I couldn't believe none of the VIP's hadn't responded..."

Maybe it's because nobody knows who you are.

BET needs to stop this anybody can have a reality show as long as your black thing they have going on.

You need to see the show. Bougie bitch is not what I would call her and why do you need to call anyone "bitch"?

I do apologize if I offended you personally. I will not apologize for my choice of words especially considering the amount of profanity I wade through on here to get through some threads.

Tracy does not appear snobby. yes, she has money and yes, she wants the best, but is there anything wrong with striving and trying to better yourself and launch a business? I myself like to see positive shows like this and you can never have too many examples of positive black people doing their thing and setting and reaching goals. Go 'head, Tracy!

They need to stop with all these reality shows on all stations!

Who was E's first wife? Until now I always thought Tracy was the first and that he was now on his second wife.

El's first wife was a soul train dancer.

It means that BET has given out shows to people (both musicians and non-musicians) that have nothing to offer. MTV did it first with the Real World and even that's tired now. Taking 7 black people and putting them in a house doesn't make them interesting. If they have a legitimate story to tell then fine. If not then why bother trying to fill another timeslot with sub par programming that lacks both imagination and depth. The audience deserves far better. I'd rather watch reruns of classic shows than see another self important D-list black "celebrity" with nothing to say.

Jones Magazine-Tracey's mag-has a lot to offer. It is basically a black version of Vogue and is a positive force. There are not a lot of black fashion mags for black women and we need all we can get.

But why are you reducing this down to Black reality shows for? Most reality shows out here period feature people who have nothing to say. I'm just not understanding how you are basically targeting "black" only reality tv shows with your complaints when it should be reality shows period. Just my two cents.

I understand your point. My problem is that BET posits itself as Centric(Afrocentric) and is in a unique postion to provide quality programming for the black community. Network television has cut most shows featuring primarily black casts. BET seems to go the quantity over quality route when it comes to programming. Ask yourself does Trey Songz need a reality show when his music is so one dimensional. What could he possibly have to say other than the same tired come on from his CD's. I did say the whole Real World set-up is tired as well. Even the supposed angst of the "challenges" seems contrived after seeing the faux drama unfold. BET has been catering to the lowest one of the black community's desires for too long. They could be showcasing up and coming young black talent that has no other forum. Instead they go for the cookie cutter R&B of today and hoist it up as the best stuff out there. The only thing I can thank BET for in the past decade is introducing me to J'Davey & Sy Smith. Other than those two things... will someone please pass me the remote.

Right, but this is a show about launching a magazine. Different from Trey NoSongz getting a show.
