: Now that Carmelo Anthony's in New York . . . LaLa's become the new IT GIRL . . . amongst Black folk. We're told that the entire NY media world is CLAMORING over pics of LaLa.
Dang . . . the girl came up BIG!!!
LALA VASQUEZ-ANTHONY IS NOT A BLACK WOMAN,"ACCORDING TO HER",SHE IS LATINA,BUT THE REALITY OF IT,MY SISTER,IS YOUR ARE BLACK ACCORDING TO THE REST OF THE WORLD.THIS IS THE PART OF ACCEPTING -REAL RACE VS. SUPERIOR RACE-.PEOPLE ARE SO QUICK TO DENY BEING BLACK AND ACTUALLY GET OFFENDED WHEN TOLD OR ASKED ARE THEY BLACK BECAUSE THEY DONT WANT TO BE IN ANY RELATION TO A RACE THAT IS LOOKED DOWN ON IN SOCIETY.WHAT SOME PUERTO RICANS,LATINOS,MIXED,AND OTHER SUBCULTURES DONT REALIZE IS VERY VERY SOON,EVERYONE WILL BE TRYING TO CONVINCE OTHERS THAT THEY HAVE BLACK IN THEM OR ARE BLACK.DONT LOOK AT SOMEONE TO DETERMINE WHAT RACE THEY ARE BECAUSE YOU MAY BE WRONG,BUT ONE RACE THAT HAS DOMINANT FEATURES IS THE BLACK RACE AND LALA HAS A LOT OF THOSE FEATURES. WHEN WHITE SOCIETY LOOKS AT HER THEY CALL HER A BLACK WOMAN,SO ACCEPT WHAT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO YOU BECAUSE THEY BASE EVERYTHING OFF FEATURES,NOT RELATION.SHE COULDN'T JUST BE NEW YORK'S "IT GIRL", WHICH SHE IS, SHE HAD TO BE, NEW YORK'S BLACK "IT GIRL", WHICH STIRS THE MELTING POT BECAUSE NOW IT PUTS LABELS ON HER THAT AREN'T EVEN SUBSTANTIAL.
First off why are ya talking *** about her being pr and not black. For one carmelo anthony is half pr himself. Not to mention blacks always wanna act like pr are black when they feel the *** is right but now that she's being called black, ya all wanna get crazy. Come on son. Mto really makes ya act a fool.
You know you can be Black and still be Hispanic right? Black is a color (race) and hispanic is an ethnicity. Race has to do with shared facial features and physical attributes, and ethnicity is shared narratives, and belief systems. And while we're at it-Your not "Spanish" unless your from Spain! Hopefully that will clear up some of the dumba**ness and ignorant racial comments that wreak havoc on these boards.
She Looks Gorqeous ... Why Yaw Always Judqeinq Somebody Based On Race, Who Cares What Color People Are ! If Yu Have To Brinq Down Another Race, Then Yu Must Feel Real *** About The Race Yu Are . Dont Brinq Somebody Else Down Jst Cause Yu Feel That Way About Yaself . Its 2011 Get The Fxck Over It ! Smh @ Some Of These PATHETIC People !
No personality having bore. She got what she wanted-some notoriety (for nothing). Just last year people were going in on Lala for being a leech, a wanna-be, fake, ugly, & everything else. Now that all she's accomplished in life was getting knocked-up & marrying a baller (in that order), now she's the greatest thing since sliced bread? okaaay
To all of you self hating blacks on this site. White America LOVES you. TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site TMZ owns this site
Why do you think I can easily type in TMZ but cannot type in [SPAM], [SPAM], All hiphop.com WShh . TMZ owns this site. Rush Limbaugh intern just quoted post to a thread about Michelle Obama go online and listen if you do not believe me. SMH Media Take out is famous. Congrats morons
For everyone who is trying to disassociate LaLa with being "black," LaLa has IDENTIFIED HERSELF in two editorial pieces (within the past year) as a "black patina." And, yes, those are her words. Do your research. It's funny how you guys are trying to hard to pull her away from something that SHE embraces. Also, for those talking about "big differences" and what not, there is a difference with being black versus african american.
@RalphCirella: Your dirty dago *** stay on MTO every day.if you truly hated black people,you would take your funky azz to TMZ,Stormfront or Perez*Hilton instead of staying on here being obsessed with black people.You wish a black woman would give you the time of the day[EXPLETIVE]*tard!You italians aint better than anybody.
Thank you @Stash_Doll! I keep trying to tell some of these remedial students that being Black is not always synonymous to being African American!! Black is a color or Phenotype, which means is based on common features. That is why some African Americans, some Cubans,some Puerto Ricans, some Jamaicans, etc are classified as Black because of their shared features, BUT what distinguishes them from one another is their ETHNICITY! their cultural beliefs and origin. La-la is NOT African American, but she is a Black Puerto Rican.
Itstoomuch: You may "disagree", but you are disagreeing with fact, not opinion. Lala doesn't only have dark skin, she is of African ancestry. The only difference between La and me is that her ancestors ended up in Puerto Rico and mine in America. Puerto Ricans are apart of the African Diaspora as well. You are not here to argue that point, so I don't expect a response, but it irks me that people are ignorant to the difference of race, ethnicity, and nationality :)
I have read an interview she clearly said that she was black by race and her ethnic group is Latino. Why don't some of you pick of a history book to find out that more blacks were enslaved in Latin American countries than the US or the UK. Here's the interview where she says it directly. We have seen so many black Latinos for people to still be so dumb:
http://hellobeautiful.com/special-features/hellobeautifulstaff2/lala-vasquez-sets-record-straight-on-being-latina/
I bet some of yall think that Papi David Ortiz is a white man because he has a Spanish surname. I must be British because that's my surname. Most Latinos have some black in them. John Leguizamo said his grandmother was a black Latino. To *** "white" Latinos, Salma Hayek is part Lebanese not full and her mother is Spanish. Not Mexican. Penelope Cruz would smack the *** out of you if you call her a Latino. The people of Spain don't like to be called Latinos because they know they are a mixed breed. Although they won't let you know that the Moors ruled their *** and the Italians.
Lala is NOT BLACK!!! It's just ignorant to keep calling her that when she's Puerto Rican. There is a HUGE difference. UGH!- I'm not tryna call you out, BUT!.. shes not PR. Just like Barack Obama, his mom is white but his dad is black, yes he has white in him, he is still BLACK though. No mattr how much ppl try and deny it, if u have black SKIN, black features [lips and hips] and you wearing weave because you have afro textured hair, you are BLACK. now..my point is CUBANS are black too, they were africans but were raped by europeans, thats why most of them are black skined
ALL PUERTOS WANT TO BE WHITE AND LATINO BECAUSE THEY ARE ASHAMED OF BEING PUERTOS! THEY ARE ALL POOR, ON WELFARE AND FOOD STAMPS, HAVE NO CULTURE, UNEDUCATED, CRIMINALS WHO BELONG IN PRISON. SHE LOOKS LIKE ANY OTHER BIG NOSED, BIG HANGING LIP, WEAVE WEARING BURNT BORICUA FROM LOIZA PUERTO RICO WHERE EVERYONE IS ON WELFARE AND TAKEN CARE OF BY THE UNITED STATES TAXPAYERS!!!! ---------------------- Lmao I find it so funny how you are talking about PR's.. Let me first say Im black american. 2nd, when a white man looks at you, you are BLACK, not white and not european , so *** up and relax.
@Stesha_doll It's stupid because if I was born in Britain and had a British surname like I do would people think I wasn't black because of those things. I think Jennifer Lopez admitted she had some black ancestry like you couldn't tell by features and body. Somebody talking about Lala wearing a weave Jennifer Lopez and Penelope Cruz wear fake hair, too. Penelope Cruz is full Spanish. All races and ethnic groups do. If Lala got a nose job, she probably did a 2 for 1 with her friend Kim Kardashian,lol. Rhinoplasty the #1 surgery and guess who got the money to do it. White people do. I saw a special where white parents gift their kids plastic surgery as graduation gifts, lol.
She looks like a black island chimp to me with her black skin nappy hair and facial features. She certainly isn't Latina that's for sure. Puertos were slaves and they look like slaves, at least the brown and black ones do. She has a Spanish slave name and an ugly African face. Puertos were slaves Mexicans never were!! Jealous of white Latinos your superiors.
And why do people think that just because WHITE Americans see you as one way, that is the way that YOU have to identify yourself? Yes, you need to be aware and educated on how the majority culture views you,and play the game accordingly, but i'll be *** if I'm going to adopt the same slave "brown bag" mentality! don't you know by doing this you perpetuate racist attitudes? Yes, Gain knowledge and awareness on how you are being viewed to fight the system, but gain wisdom and educate yourselves to understand who you really are.
okay-i'm done on this post forreal this time-lol
idc what her race/ethnicity is that chicc is ok to look at not gorgeous but ok and why the hell does he have on that *** plaid suit and i hope she doesnt have too many groupie issues in ny seems like the groupies there keep it a little more "classy" than the ones in miami or the west coast guess groupies have morals too
shes a black puerto rican. she looks like solange knowles or trina.she cool looking. .LOL mto. His success makes her. she looks great a black puerto rican the media of course loves to show the non black ones. she repping for island blacks.she is a puerto rican that has black ancesestors 2. while she cover latina she says shes a black puerto rican.
@butterflychick: People need to open their minds and think logically. Just as African Americans are very Americanized(we speak English, a lot of us are of the mainstream religion here, we eat foods we have adapted to etc) African Latinos have adapted a lot of the Latin culture. We have british, scottish, irish surnames and they have spainish surnames. Most of us have European ancestry and so do most of them. The difference between black americans and black latinos is that our ancestors ended upin different places.
@ Mestiza: I know that you are here only to get a rise out of people, but as someone who enjoys ethnic studies I just do not want your ignorance to be perceived as truth. Mexicans were slaves and slavery in Mexico. It was just very different from European slavery as slaves could be awarded upward mobility and their children would be able to be free. Most Mexicans are not "white" they are mestizo and noticibly so mainly Native American which would probably make them more Mongoloid-Caucasian.
ALL THOSE OUTFITS WAS WACK AN LALA IS NOT CUTE U FORGOT HOW SHE USED LOOK?? SHE DID SURGERY AN FINALLY HE MARRIED HER WACK *** SHE LOOKS LIKE A SCARE CROW!! NEXTTTTTT PERSONNNN DONT WANNA HEAR ABOUT HER, WELCOME TO THE KNICKS CARMELO LALA BETTA KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON U *** IN NEW YORK DONT CARE IF GUYS IS MARRIED
Lala(herpes)Anthony, go have a seat. You look like a bug, with that fake ***, skinny legs and nose also. What do you do? You are a golddigger. Melo, is lame. He goes after women(Katt Stacks, and punches on the court, then runs. LOL You will never be a Savannah. That is class. She is thick, and naturally pretty. Lala, is a FAME ***!
mikeharrismamastaank For everyone who is trying to disassociate LaLa with being "black," LaLa has IDENTIFIED HERSELF in two editorial pieces (within the past year) as a "black patina." And, yes, those are her words. [SPAM][SPAM]____________
Holy Fcuking LOL! I cracked up at BLACK PATINA. That b*tches face patinas like a Louis Handbag.
Idk what all the hoopla is about this chick don't get me wrong she's cute, but in no way gorgeous, its something about her face that makes me think messy, not ho'ish messy just the proportions of her face are off, and of course the green eyes step her up a notch but she's def not in the beyonce, jlo, kim *** league, just cute nothing more
hahaha at the ugly *** hoes up on here hating on LALA, but you know majority of guys on here would hit that WAYYYYY before any of you rank ***..esp this *** with the fat fingers as her profile pic, please, your chubby digits lets me know right away you BEAST...bumpy knuckles should be ur screen name
Whenever I see her I'm reminded of the Wizard of Oz. Her nose is 12 inches long and her standard side profile *** is identical to the witch in that movie. And, no, I don't mean Glenda, the Good Witch! LOL.
There is nothing naturally beautiful about this woman. She's a Stepford Wife: fake breast, hips, teeth, hair, smile, personality... well, you get the picture.
It's a good thing she's married to a man rich enough to continue to pay for and maintain all this fakery and shallow enough to accept it. Most secure men want natural beauty and that's what they attract.
hahaha at the ugly *** hoes up on here hating on LALA, but you know majority of guys on here would hit that WAYYYYY before any of you rank ***..esp this *** with the fat fingers as her profile pic, please, your chubby digits lets me know right away you BEAST...bumpy knuckles should be ur screen name ------ @Def, those aren't my fingers. Those are my client's fingers. Smarta$$. Let's see you, on second hand, let's not!
Since a lot of you have an issue with the definition of Latino/a and Hispanic (*cringes at that term*) I think it's best you just call her Puerto Rican...which is what she is. ALL RACE ASIDE because that is just a social construct made up by our government and you continue to fall into it. Puerto Ricans from the islands are Puerto Rican before ever calling themselves "Latina". Nationalism is priority, all that b.s. race *** is for the birds unless you're talking about the human race. And although we are all human, all ONE race.. ancestry, ethnicity, and culture give us our identity. HOLLA
