Awww Maia... I wish her all the best. She wasn't nakey in the video and she did decline the "shower scene"...but she does seem "medicated".
God bless.
And I agree with Uncle Tom...it could be anyone's offspring.
NOTE: mmlobe/sfw3344/killo still promoting that *** website...how many of y'all have actually blessed that gah-bage with some hits? LOL...
MAIA, WE LOVE YOU. GET BETTER SWEETIE. YOU MADE AN IMPACT ON US ON "IN THE HOUSE." WE BELIVE IN YOUR SUCCESS. BUT MAMI, YOU GOTTA STAY ON YOUR MEDS BOO. IT'S OKAY, WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING WRONG WITH US, SO DON'T BE ASHAMED OF YOUR ILLNESS. YOUR MEDICINE IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE SO STAY ON IT, WHETHER YOU THINK YOU NEED IT OR NOT. WE LOVE YOU, SO GET HEALTHY AND THEN HIT THE GROUND RUNNING ON THAT ACTING TRAIL. WE KNOW YOU CAN DO IT.
i'm praying for you Maia!!!
this is just a taste of what celebrities have to go through. we all want to live their lifestyles, but we don't realize how blessed our "mediocre" lives are ALREADY!
contentment. just give me that and i'll be fine.
I DO HOPE that God was involved beforehand, if not, then that explains ALOT!
and the comment 3rd to last is on point!
there are ALOT more celebs who suffer frm this than we [care] to know about.
depression is a serious disease and you'd be surprised at the things that cause it. it's not a freak disease that ONLY nuts and rejects get. some of the most creative, ingenious, phenomenal people frm writers to scientists have suffered from something similar to what Maia is going through.
and before anyone makes any snap judgements, please go and get your google on!
Her mother did not battle mental illness herself but battled the health care system in an attempt to assist her daughter who has had issues with with mental illness for many years now. BeBe Moore Campbell's novel, 24 Hr Hold was based on her problems with her daughter's drug abuse and mental illness. This is very sad...:-(
You are in my prayers, Maia. Your problems may seem monumental now but you can overcome them all. Just take it easy. One day at a time.
People on the outside looking in are always quick to pass judgement whether they have all the facts or not.
NEWS FLASH ~~ We are all WEAK at some point for some reason or for somebody so the fact that this woman hasn't been able to handle the everyday stresses in her life is no reason to judge her so harshly.
Show some compassion, people. We all need it.

MTO, YOU HAVE STOOPED TO BE THE MONTH OLD *** COLLECTED FROM 3 STREETS OLD WAITING TO BE FLUSHED INTO THE OCEAN.
WHY WOULD YOU SHOW ANOTHER BEING'S BOTTOM MOST SITUATION IN LIFE?
ALL OF YOUR STAFF HAS BEEN THROUGH A TOUGH TIME IN LIFE. AND SOME ARE SO HURT THAT THEY ARE SCARED FOREVER, SO HOW COULD YOU?
YOU KNOW THIS GIRL IS ILL....AND YET YOU SHOW ONE OF THE MOST HUMILLIATING THINGS SHE HAS EVER DONE?
THIS IS THE TYPE OF 2 MINS IN A PERSON'S LIFE THAT IS SOOOO PAINFUL THAT THEY WILL NEVER FORGET IT.
I'M SO BOTHERED BY YOUR DISREGARD FOR HUMAN PAIN, I'LL NEVER VISIT THIS SITE AGAIN.
THE JASMINE GUY THING IS DISPICABLE ALSO. SOMEONE WHO IS SICK, YOU GUYS MAKE FUN OF! THAT SOUNDS LIKE KINDERGARTEN *** WE DID WHEN WE WERE 3 YRS OLD AND DIDNT KNOW ANY DAM BETTER.
TRUST ME MTO WHOEVER MAKES THE DECISIONS AND WHOMEVER IMPLEMENTS THOSE DECISIONS TO HURT OTHER PEOPLE LIKE THIS WILL SEE IT AGAIN BY GOD'S ORDERS.
HE SAY WHAT YOU REAP, YOU WILL SOW.
I KNOW YOU'VE HURT MAIA , HER FAMILY, JASMINE, HER FAMILY AND COUNTLESS OTHERS THROUGH THIS TRASH SHOW HOOK UP.
THIS SHI/T SHOULD BE *** DOWN!
Last year this time she made the news in Philly, for stealing a car from some guy, they were going somewhere her forgot something and went back into the house to get it when he came out his car and Maia was gone. A warrent was put out for her arrest.That's a shame she's a beautiful girl. Hope she recovers.
She has been on drugs for years. She was also a video girl for some time, but she's been in and out of drug rehabs for years. It looks like it's taking it's toll on her. She was extremely pretty so, it would have been easy for her to become really famous, but she didn't have the common sense to say no to drugs *** shame. But, overall, we didn't need to see this video to know she might be back on drugs after all once a drug addict usually always a drug addict.
ENOUGH ALREADY WITH THE DISCLAIMERS...YOU AND I KNOW THAT THE CLIP IS ABOUT THREE YEARS OLD AND AFTER THAT SHE ENDED UP IN PHILLY AND STOLE A POPULAR RADIO PERSONALTY'S VEHICLE WHICH HE PUT OUT ON THE RADIO 7AM IN THE MORNING FOR EVERYONE TO "LOOK OUT FOR HIS CAR" EVEN THOUGH HE DID REPORT IT BEING STOLEN BY HER ...THE GIRL DOES HAVE MENTAL ISSUES AND A HISTORY OF DRUG ABUSE AND I HOPE THAT SHE WILL GET THE PROPER MEDICAL ATTENTION THAT SHE NEEDS.
My prayers goes out to her.....she didn't get this way UNTIL AFTER her mother passed. It very difficult to get past this type of lose so easily and apparently she had folks around who never craed about her well being. Some fool gave her some drugs knowing she was vunerable and she bit. Get better sweety and grasp hold of the blessings that you were given.
beauty has nothing to do with your mental state. pray for her instead of talking about her. anyone that knows anything about bebe moore campbell knows she was an advocate for those with mental illness as a result of maia's bipolar condition. the time y'all spending making derrogatory comments use it to pray on her behalf.
This is sooo sad... Her mothers last book was 72 hour hold and it was a novel about dealing with a young woman with mental illness who knew it was her own daughter... very sad I'm sure everyone has known some1 on drugs personally or by association it truly takes a toll on all those close to the family... The video isn't truly shocking it's just to see a celebrity do it to herself shows u no one is above it all...
This is not the first time I have heard this. If anyone has paid attention before, her mother was renowned author Bebe Moore Campbell who died recently of brain cancer.
Her last novel is called, "72 Hour Hold," about a mother going to extremes to try and find proper care for her teenaged daughter who is bipolar.
Even though it was a work of fiction, there was clearly some truth to the novel. For a glimpse into what Ms.Campbell and Maia may have experienced, please read the novel.
It is moving, intriguing, and quite disturbing; almost frightening. Mental illness is no joke, folks.
Seeing that was so sad. Poor Maia, I guess losing her mother is taking a toll on her. I knew her mom was the late Bebe Moore Campbell, but I didn't know that the two of them were estranged, nor did I know that Maia was bipolar. She needs help, regardless of the fact that she is a celebrity. Just because you have the fame doesn't make you immune from the issues of everyday life. Keep her in your prayers, yall.
The days of disrespect, dishonor and using our people (especially our beautiful sisters) are coming to an end. God's chosen people will rise and take this planet over and bring righteousness to the wicked world. Instead of trying to help this sister out and lend her a hand, all I read is hate. Where is the love amongst our people? We hate each other that much? But I tell you this, the Lord our God is watching all this madness and he will put it to an end. We should all be reaching out to this sister and helping her out. Not posting lewd pictures and videos. Remember, this is someones daughter. Someones Mother. And one of God's chosen fallen on hard times. Shalam.
