: We understand LOVING a dog . . . but this is a little OVER THE TOP. MediaTakeOut.com learned that R&B singer Keyshia Cole spent more than $20K . . . in the funeral and burial costs for her deceased Yorkie, Gizmo.

According to a family member, Keyshia went ALL OUT - pending approx. $7500 on the coffin, and $500 for the flowers. But that's just the beginning, when you add in the $7500 FUNERAL HOME fee, the limo, the burial fees and the TOMBSTONE . . . the total cost of burying Gizmo was OVER 20 RACKS!!!

mscreative1

She really loved Lil pooh!



CaliBaybee

MTO yall stories r beyond wack today! ....This ghetto bit*h kno if she was still in Oakland, her a** woulda thrown that dog out *** the street. Girl plz! Spending uneccessary money like that when kids r starving.


247HUSTLEENT

I'm sure her REAL BLOOD family neffie and frankie can use that money since she got it to waste on a mut. I'm sure its her husband money anyway, that *** career ended when monica out did her on her own song...... IJS


tlacura

What a waste of money. All of these starving homeless people in the world.


ms james

That's why black people die broke! I hope she has money for own funeral at the end of her road! Another example of spending money fribulously.


TeeSweet

She loved her dog and if she got the money to do it so what ! Follow me @ariessoosweet


keeno5

There is a lot I could say, but it would be considered mean, so I won't. Keyshia better be saving that money. These folks think they gonna have it like that forever -- then they end up like TLC or somebody, broke and penniless in the next few years. Spend carefully, save wisely, so you don't end up on MTOs foreclosure list!


bigbabe904

mto dog funerals are under $3200 i would do the same for my pup


Fuck_You_Asshole

I CAN TOTALLY SEE HOW THIS TITLE WHOLE BE IF A WHITE PERSON DID THIS "IN TODAYS EPISODE OF WHITE PEOPLE DO THE DARNDEST THINGS:PEEP HOW MUCH THIS WHITE GIRL SPENT ON A FUNERAL FOR HER DOG (ONLY WHITE PEOPLE CAN DO THIS)"...WELL MTO CAN YOU PROVE ME WRONG???...OF COURSE YOU CAN'T AND SOME OF YOUR DUMB *** FOLLOWERS THAT READ YOUR SITE WOULD PROBABLY NOT HAVE SOMETHING STUPID AND RACIST TO SAY SINCE ITS A BLACK PERSON....SMH


Fuck_You_Asshole

****would be***


w123t456f789

@xstarisbeautyx LOL! $20,000 funeral hell she probably had *** with him too


Candy_coated86

Well, that was a total waste of 20k most funeral expenses for animals do not go over $6,000 ...coon


love1979

I would do it if I had it.....follow me @pinkeetucadarro


w123t456f789

@*** aww *** yo dumb azz up, black folks get ridiculed on here every day so ur argument is totally pointless


BIGTHOUGHT

MIC CHECK!!!!! NEW MUSIC inspired by the occupy wall st movement, *** outs to all involved around the world, no matter the opinion or what side of the political fence you sit on, one must admit, something is wrong, and the people must unite and rise up.http://youtu.be/WoENqSS-8sU


Ransomed

This is why black people will never get ahead in life. I'll never forget a RICH Jewish raido host telling how when his father died he purchased a simple wood/pine box from Sam's. He then proceeded to laugh and make fun of black people who spend $10,000 on a casket when their families could use that money for education, housing etc. I really am ashamed that she'd be so idiotic. I'm sure if she wanted to throw away $20,000 she could've put it in a college fun for Neffie's kids so the circle of ignorance would END in their dysfunctional family. And is the dog cremated? #completefail



Ransomed

I mean to say is the dog EMBALMED not cremated.


iliveinheels

Should have put that money aside for her actual funeral... .or her Mothers...these celebs I swear.


srhenton6

Y'all have to realize that Keyshia, had those dogs for a loooooong time, they were her babies. So I say why not go all the way if you got it like that!! R.I.P. GIZMO


DropDead

Finally a story that even the ignorant ones won't go right out and follow. LOL MTO, will you report on her next trip to the toilet? what color was it? firm or mushy? Inquiring uneducated minds want to know....


mochaaakin

Thats a *** lie ! Keisha is not balling like that !! She hasn't been hot for a minute and her husbands not bringing home no KOBE money!! So stop lying ! Did Keisha assistant send ya'll does figures??


maccon42

I totally understand, an animal is like your child...only anima lovers get this...i would have done the same for mine...however i think mto made up the numers as usual...smh...stop with the starvin children *** cause im sure none of u donate to ***


DOLL11-ONE

@Graveebaby.......lmffbao tell'em mama..........Ihey girl hate this got dam site...........I came on today and guess what.......Im out.............

If she spent a million bucks on it.....its hers.......she's not required to ask you mofo's how to spend her cash.............Keisha tell them to kiss your azz and the dead dog


ThisPicProvesImBlack

20K on a doggy funeral? Same hoodrat *** who shuns her ghetto *** family because they beg for money?

Money took the rat out of the hood but Keyshia will never be humble, she's too ignorant.


Quani69

What the hell ....anywho follow me on Twitter @MSQUANI87


NickieMeenaj

I was talkin' to my brother yesterday. I said whatever happen to FIFI our French Poodle that hated white people. He said Mama took her on a long drive with her favorite blanket and let her go in peace. She's resting somewhare near Hollywood Blvd. RIP. Couldn't afford to bury her like this.


haak8417

every1 is so quick to believe that she spent $20,000 on a funeral for her pet, but if she did, guess what ppl it's her money. calling her broke or being surprised that she has that type of money is funny bcuz that shows how many of u mismanage money. just bcuz she hasn't been relevant in music recently, doesn't mean she has to be broke. savings, investng, and managing the money she accrued makes it very possible that she can live comfortably and afford giving her deceased pet a farewell service to her liking. and what does starving children have to do with anything???


Racer BK

*** AND SHE GOT THE REPLACEMENT IN HER ARMS!!! SMH.... I GUESS IT IS WHAT IS IS....


mabeline

I saw this story on 2 other sites days ago oddly enough none of them gave details of money spent? However mto just had to go that deep huh? #LIES# All they reported was that she tweeted the pic of the funeral she hosted for her pet.

silky1700

msfoxxy

mrtalent24

MISSSTAR69

Ya'll are forgetting Keisha is married to a baller!!!


FETISH401

she should of spent it on her crackhead mother to sit her *** down


Tcook29

RIP to my yorkie BABY :-).


PeachFuzz79

*** Kesh...with the economy the way it is, even yall celebs *** be wasting money like that. But hey its yours to waste. However, the dog could have still had a nice burial for less than that. RIP little pup. Ummmm Kesh, if you need an assistant look me up. Hell if you paid that much to bury a dog, I wonder what you pay your employees. :)


Qu33nz89

well its her $$ she earned it and I keep seeing starving hungry needy ppl/children I'm like true they need help but wht have y'all done 4 them everytime a celeb splurge on somethin y'all quick 2 holla wht bout the childen in the homeless wht have any of y'all done......


Jenice83

Really keyshia????


pinkscorpio

So what it's her money.


GETTHEMONEY

IS THAT POSSIBLE?!!! It is her money, but Keeeysh you from tha hood trippin. IDK. I'm kinda torn about this one


cocoa49

To each their own. If she got the money like that, then she can spend any way she wants, not the way people feel she should. She loved her dog. I like animals more then people.



Ransomed

I for one volunteer at a homeless *** so STOP assuming the rest of us are low lifes that sit on the computer all day wasting space like yourselves. Any person who justifies this saying it's her money is a fool. God gives you money as a blessing and expects you to BE A GOOD STEWARD. Jesus said the dead will bury the dead so don't even get me started on this stupid waste in burying a dog the size of a rat that couldn't defend her any way shape or form. #blackpeoplearesoDUMB #***


blazebaby

i mean dang its just a dog ive had pets that died but dang thats just toooo much Follow me @TheKoolest_Lame i follow back


deadlywoman

I don't believe the numbers, but just knowing how much money these celebs throw away on stupid *** is ridiculous. If they buy those expensive art pieces or other *** that are investments that can be sold in case they start losing money, that's cool but these animal lovers are crazy, sad how they seem to love animals more than HUMAN beings. And yes, it's their money, and I know they ain't gonna die with the money blah blah blah, I don't care it makes no *** sense. The reason people mention starving children for all you geniuses on here is because poverty is world wide problem and when we see people throwing away money, burning it, or buying a $50,000 PURSE while somebody's starving in Africa it's like a blow to the face, life is so unfair I mean Cmon man.


Ransomed

A FOOL and his/ HER money are soon parted #believethat


Lemony

It's apparent that her dog was like fam & was probably more loyal to her @ss than Frankie ever was or ever will be. If this is how she wants to honor his loyalty to her, so be it. It's not like she dropping bills on doggie funerals every dang day. If I had the paper, I'd do it for my own dog too.


357Maggie

that is a lie... she didn't pay $7500.00 for that coffin. If she paid $7500.00 She is a stupid Bytch because that casket cost $395.00 - $500.00


BoojiePlaymate

Well dayum (in my Gucci mane voice)


denia

She loved her dog. But some things she went to far on but then again she has the money so why not


MichelleMichaels

yeah so um these stars have a lot of money to spend in absolutely nothing


jamaicanqueen11

ON A FRIGGIN DOG??...SMH!


silky1700

I would spend the $$$ on my dog instead of a Diamond chain...A dog that protect my children is woth a nice going home outting. That's if u you got it like that. You pay more in taxes if u are in that bracket.


babyfaceree

People don't believe everything that is printed Keyshia already talked about this on Twitter. She paid $1,500 not $20,000.


Evileen530

Well I'm sure she bought her own wedding ring and dress and ALL the above too! She comes of thirsty in that manner!!!! This move doesn't shock me from her, but great for her! #EVILEEN530


keyshiac1fan

*** KC did not pay 20k my god CAML down yall


Evileen530

Ooops meant *Off* #EVILEEN530



Whitefreak

Eskimo got money,he goes out and buy a fridge.


rudebwoy general

im not a mathematician but 7500+ 7500+500=15,500 not 20 gs. what i miss out on to make it 20 grand


msrush02

Keysia, that's your child's college tuition........"There are a lot of broke entertainers......so spend your money wisely.....


MalloreeKnockz

SMMFH...she spending 20 stacks on a *** dog funeral...she need to take that money and send Frankie's *** back to the *** rehab!!!! Or maybe on some birth control for Neffie's ***!!!


Prettylady4life

IF THIS IS TRUE THEN SHE IS CRAZY. DON'T SHE REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE BROKE. INSTEAD OF SPENDING THIS TYPE OF MONEY ON A FUNERAL FOR A DOG, SHE COULD HAVE HELPED PEOPLE IN NEW ORLEANS OR FEED A VILLAGE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE HELPED PEOPLE IN NEED, WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!


RealRuckusReturns

*** I thought only white people did stupid sh*t like that.
