Kelly looks gorgeous and is definitely underrated. To all the losers making comments about her hair like someone else on this post mentioned many other races of women wear hair extensions not just Blacks, i.e. Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez and all the girls on Jersey Shore. So can these ignorant stupid people please have a seat and get your facts straight. What happen is that Black women started openly verbalizing that they were wearing hair extensions when the other ones were lying or either keeping it a secret. This is the reason Blacks are better known for wearing hair extensions but they are definitely not the only ones rocking the false locks. So be quiet with your stupidity!
@ Proverb...... "*** that! As you should be....... "Partial" *** that, you should discriminatory about it, don't let these fat people make you feel guilty for healthiness. Don't let these overweight Trina looking *** make you feel out of the loop because they fat *** can't resist a cheeseburger"
