Monica - Still Standing Episode 1
In case you missed it last night. I’ll post episode 2 if I can find it. Mo is living the life isn’t she? Even though she’s with a hard core rapper, her life is almost as tranquil as the Brady Bunch’s.

Even though she’s a hardcore rapper? WHAT? Auntie, are you now going in on Monica?
I loved it and enjoyed it But i thought i was watching repeats of the Tiny&Toya show because the music and some of the scenes was identical. Must have the same producers.
I watched a few minutes of the show. I liked how she was kind of down and called her fiance’ and he cheered her up. I also like how she does shows at places ppl would not expect. She really does love her fans and reaches out to all of them.
good positive show i liked the vibe of it
i watched the first 3 minutes but i fell asleep, i did record it though.
lol @keely shes talkin about rocko, hes supposedly a rapper but i havent heard any of his songs
it was ok.. i thought it was kinda boring. i hope it gets better.
I loved the show. Monica always shows her true self. I love that she always thinks about her babies.
Pinky I agree was a lil slow but I will tune n again to see if it picks up
Her kids are sooo CUTE!
I loved it! Im glad that she has stepped to higher ground! Im also glad to see such a positive energy from Rocko!
Pinky I agree, I love Monica and tried to watch the whole thing but it literally put me to sleep. My daughter said she hopes it gets better too. Sadly I think part of the problem is she is trying to live right and drama free just doesnt make for good tv. On the other hand IMO like all reality show in the begining, the subjects are very “on” and aware of the cameras. I am not saying phony but you know. The shows always improve when they get used to it all and just act real.
I thought the show was pretty good. I know it was the first episode & the slowness was hopefully related to that, so I’ll give it another try.
Her kids are cuties. Of course I couldn’t catch it…cable was out…grrrr
waiting on all of the anti baby momma folks to show up in 5…4…3….
i liked the show and i have always loved her music.
glad chuck is gone on this one particular post…
I didnt watch it because I just wasnt interested in it Im pretty it was postive but for the most part I just fiinng hate EBT!
I slept on this one… Im sure the re-runs will come and I’ll check it out then… from u guys comments.. I’m kinda hesitant LOL
and the “playing house isn’t cute” party
Is judging someone for their sins a sin? Just asking before the debate gets started
I like Monica and don’t mind hearing her story but on the heels of Tiny and Toya and RHOA it seems like a copy cat…Also with her Kandi coming out with new CD’s at the same time or around the same time idk could be risque cuz right now I wanna copy Kandi’s CD I wanna hear more from Monica…
Kwall, you shouldn’t have even said anything.
As for the show, I didn’t even know it was coming on. Why is it I can see advertisements for shows on other networks for a different network, yet I don’t see the same for BET? Do they not have any decent partnerships or quality sister channels they could advertise the other shows that cater to the other demographic groups?
Oh hell, who am I fooling?!?! I crack me up!
I like Mo and I enjoyed the show. I will be tuning in the entire season. Her boys are too cute! My husband was in the bed with me and he said watching the show was equivalent watching wet paint dry. LOL
MizzDallas- LOL!! I don’t even know WHY ppl watch BET.. Couldn’t tell you what channel it comes on on..

““““““““““““““““““““““““`
totally agree!
I love it!!! Finally, a show that follows a woman’s career and not just her DRAMA. YAY!
thats funny no drama= boring tv
sidenote go see “this is it” folks was up in there crying last night it wasnt a sad movie to me but i guess seeing him take folks back
Is judging someone for their sins a sin? Just asking before the debate gets started
***********************************************************
To each his own BUT IMO ppl shouldn’t judge others.. Mind your own business & live your life the way you see fit!
I liked it alot, actually!
DID ANYONE NOTICE HOW FLY HER MAKE-UP IS? Sheesh!
I admire the transparency of Monica. I love it…I really hopes she puts out that B.Cox song.
Dang…do people come off as anti-baby momma?
I surely hope I don’t seem that way. I have a lot of friends that have children. My sister was a baby momma until she married him. My other sister IS a baby momma.
Although, NOT having kids up to this point has been no accident. Sometimes, I wish I would’ve had kids earlier.
I liked da show i guess cuz i luv Monica, she is da realest chick in da game. She is da type of woman dat everybody in da industry likes her I don’t think anybody can say anything negative bout her cuz she embraces everybody. (I no haters will hate)
I was not impressed with the B Cox song last night lol they were JAMMIN way to hard for me lol It was ok and I do like B Cox that track just didnt move me
East DRAMA as always made for GREAT TV BUT that doesnt mean Monica had to act a fool per say I was not expecting that but the show was a little slow n dry to me. Her hr long show earlier this yr was much better and entertaining. I will watch again but I need it to pick up.
DB Monica keeps her face BEAT but sometimes I think she wears a little to much make up as well at times. Her make up and boot game is on POINT overall though!
I didn’t think it was boring. I liked how her man talked to her and I love seeing celebs in the studio. I like watching the music come to life.
On the other hand, I hate watching Neffe and Frankie doing nothing all day but crying, getting pregnant, and trying to find who in the hell knocked Frankie up some years back. Those losers don’t do ANYthing that interests me. Having a baby? Any woman can do that. Arguing and being overly dramatic? Anyone can do that too. That’s boring to me. Watching people do stuff that I can do if I just raise my voice and think sad thoughts is BORING.
But I like Monica’s show because anyone can’t get in the studio and blow. Anyone can’t get a nice home built from the ground up. Monica was doing stuff that the average (Frankie and Neffe) person’s not doing. THAT I like. I like the fact that although Monica is not married, her kids are for the same man and she’s not wasting her valuable time crying and screaming behind some loser who doesn’t want her(Neffe). Frankie and Neffe gave us enough ghetto down trotten memories to last a life time.
Housewives of ATL wasn’t much better with the mentally unstable Kim and NeNe.
@ Daisy — yeah they were jammin TOO hard in the studio. LOL!!
********************************************
Right! So I flip past them every time.
Who has time to be digging in the alleys of Frankie’s mind for that type of information? Frankie don’t remember the man don’t remember the doctor dont remember etc. etc. LOL.
@Daisy…I can’t say anything bad about Mo! lmao!
@Smokie…YOU AINT NEVER LIED! RHOA just had drama for no reason! I like peace and serenity. If you’re going to bring the drama, please ensure it’s warranted. I don’t like high school shat.
I would like to see Lee Najjar’s wife….roll up in the middle of the night and BUST UP in Kim’s crib, and Brenda Richie them mugs! NOW THAT’S GOOD TV…
@east I notice that too…regular show with no drama = boring. I’m going to watch simply because I LOVE Monica. Been with her since Miss Thang.
NYCUTIE I totally agree with you. I don’t go personal because I don’t know what that persons situation is or how mine will end up so I prefer to not go in on others lifestyles.
nah dvb. you are not the anti baby momma folks sis.
(in my best ghetto girl voice..)they know who they is.
I LOVE Monica. Been with her since Miss Thang.
———————————-
like i say “like this and like that” is in my ipod.
loves me some her. her voice is fiyah.
Oh and all the judgemental people who judge someone because of a choice THEY made with THEIR body can kick rocks!
@Shauny (LAST part of your comment #36)
I FEEL you but at the end of the day I ALWAYS go back to MY ROOTS (GM-R.I.P.) and ONE’S Behavior-n-Actions can be as plain as — If it SOUNDS LIKE a Duck & ACTS LIKE a Duck
Whatever Mo do im all for it i love monica and i love the show go monica
Kwall I love like this n like that
I LOVE RHOA and Franki n Neffie BUT again that is NOT what I was expecting from Monica but I did expect for her to be entertaing n keep my interest n that didn’t happen last nite hopefully it will pick up next wk
No one is real as Monica and you all know it Team Monica all day
I’ve never watched Frankie and Neffie (couldn’t bring myself to) and only caught a semi marathon of 3 shows of Tiny and Toya. I think RHOA and Bad Girls Club are the only trainwrecks I watch (and there’s usually only 1 or 2 non yt’s on BGC). I guess after a while I tire of coonery. I can watch a couple of episoded of a For the love of, Flavor of, Real Chance of, them I forget to tune in. I only need to know who won.
I watched the first episode of Frankie and Neffie and I just couldn’t stomach another episode. I see why KC did not make an appearance. She didn’t show up for “Jalen WeeLove Cole” christening…LOL
Seriously Frankie were you letting those many guys go up in you raw that you don’t know any of your kids father. I thought men would use protection with crackheads…Maybe I’m missing something!
At the end of the day…………..we should have a live chat with Frankie!
BUT I loved me some Bobby and Whitney.
^^^
You’re LAUGHING about the suggested live-chat BUT I’ll betchoo Her’s would be a Heeluva lot BETTER than the last one that Ms. Sandra had
@ elove — For REAL because I think I might not be a Toya fan after that doo doo chat she gave us.
My last comment was meant for @dcwife …
@Smokie… NOW that show WAS THE ISH (F-ing Hilarious !!!)
@ Shauny
I can’t lie I
me some Bad Girls Club.
@Smokie
So MANY PEEPS feel the SAME WAY !!! 
@Smokie KC named Jayle WeeLove
Shauny The Bad girls are about to start
I am as straight laced as they come (ie boring and lame) so I love watching somebody elses DRAMA on TV
Love the show…they showed repeat episodes…not 2 new episodes Sandra!!!
I love Monica song, Still Standing and I wih her much success with album and her house getting build!!!
What i can’t wait to watch the bad girls club
“This is the amber show” {don’t throw stone my way I like the ambers}
“i ain’t get no sleep cause of y’all ..y’all aint gonna get no sleep cause of me”
“This casey”
Hope i find time to watch it cause i don’t remember when anything comes on.
I too have been a Mo fan since Miss Thang…NEVER CAN SAY GOODBYE is my ONE! My more recent ONE is THAT’S MY MAN!
@Elove #47
I agree that the last chat was hot garbage. Did she announce tomorrows guest or did she run out of folks that like her? I hate when celebrities agree to interviews and live chats and sh!t is off limits. The questions they don’t want to answer are the only questions folks care about.
@ Missy
I liked the Ambers too
Amber B (the one who beat the hell outta KC) was my favorite on the show. The other black girl (can’t think of her name) was a bully.
Oooo I can’t wait for the new season. When does is start straight lace Daisy
Monica I know you read Ms Rose blog, I loved the show. It is about time a black women has represented us in a better light than loud and ghetto. Girl you cannot please everybody, some people just want to have something to say. Trust if you were loud and ghetto then they will still talk shyt. Stay blessed honey and The makings of me was the best damn album of that year. Yes I said it I believe Beyonce flooded us with with B-Day that year. Don’t get me wrong I love me some Beyonce but we all can agree she has feel off since Dangerously In Love. Keep being blessed and keep on setting a positive tone. I will buy ten copies of your new album when it comes out love u…..
@iscream The black girl was named Tiffany (i can’t stand her she was a flip-flop)And it premieres Dec.1
But since I haven’t given my view on the topic I will say I like Monica’s’ show (the bits I watched)and Monica comes off as a real person who is down to earth and not just for show.
@Nichelle it isnt about her being loud and talking shyt on TV. She didnt do that on her FIRST hr long special that was aired in the A but it was MUCH BETTER than what I saw last night. People will always have something to say cause we ALL have opinions. Monica I will still be watching your show and BUYING your new cd!
@Missy and Isc I liked Tiffany lol
I enjoyed the show and will not be missing an episode. Like someone else said, you can’t please everybody!
I HATED both Ambers BUT I did like the Amber that beat up KC. I wanted to beat her ass myself. How she let Amber choke her out like that. I laughted for WEEKS after that show. I liked Tiffany right up until the finale. I think she wanted to come and do the right thing on the show but made mistakes, felt bad, then tried to fix them. She was throwing up gang signs on the reunion show and I didn’t care for her from that point on. She’s on a video of K’Jon’s (The Ocean…FYE song).
This years BGC looks like it’s going to be good. Can’t wait.
and :cogisn: Smokie on the Toya chat comment. She was cool UNTIL the chat.
Seems like majority on here liked the show. As a fan I enjoyed it, but I thought it was a bit slow. I used the word boring to someone else, but it wasnt boring. Just a bit slow…maybe becuz I knew the history behind the music and album. I think this first episode was moreso a reintroduction of Monica to the public. Like, this is who I am, this is where Ive been, and this is where im trying to go. Im sure the “drama” will come in the next few episodes.
But dont expect ghetto cuz thats not what she is…at all
Also, Im so glad that BET is allowing MOnica to put on a positive family driven show. ALthough I dont KNOCK Frankie and Neffie, cuz I know plenty Frankie and Neffies in real life…HOWEVER, there are not (hell if any) positive images of black women on reality television. Married or not, Monica embodies a hard working, intelligent, everyday black woman. I really hope people lay the fu&*K off her after this show.
mad late but drama on a show does not equal loud and ghetto.
Tv shows, books etc need a CONFLICT or similar(could be with the lable,everyday problems et). I was not dissing Monica I am a fan and will continue to watch and support. I am not expecting or hope for ghetto. Especially since she is portraying someone I hope my daughter will look up to( not that I want her to look to entertainers or expect anything from them its just the way things are today) I would never sit down with my daughter and watch frankie and neffe RHOA etc
HELLO EVERYONE ITS MONICA. I JUST WANTED TO THANK EVERYONE FOR THEYRE LOVE AND SUPPORT. I AM TRULY GRATEFUL FOR THOSE THAT UNDERSTAND THAT I AM WORKING ON MYSELF AS A PERSON, MOTHER, ARTIST AND BETTERING MYSELF AS A HUMAN BEING OVERALL.I HAVE LIVED ALOT OF LIFE IN 29 YEARS AND HAVE MADE ALOT OF MISTAKES ALONG THE WAY. BUT MY FOCUS IS NO LONGER THE MISTAKES AND THE DRAMA THAT SURROUNDED THEM. MY FOCUS IS PICKING MYSELF UP AND MOVING FORWARD.PEOPLE POINT OUT ALL THE BAD THINGS ABOUT ME AND IM NOT BOTHERED BY IT , IT COMES WITH THE TERRITORY. I LOOK AT SOME THINGS AND LAUGH NOW WHEREAS BEFORE I ALWAYS HAD THE SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT ATTITUDE.PEOPLE ASK ME CONSTANTLY WHY DO I LOVE THIS OR THAT OR WHY DID I HAVE CHILDREN OUT OF WEDLOCK?? HERES THE ANSWER.GOD HAS FORGIVEN ME, THE NEXT STEP WAS TO FORGIVE MYSELF AND MOVE FORWARD AND BE THE BEST PARENT I CAN BE. AND THAT I DO. MY CHILDREN COME BEFORE ANY AND EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE.I HAVE AND WILL SACRIFICE FOR THEM AND THATNK GOD FOR GIVING THEM TO ME EVENTHOUGH IVE AT TIMES FALLEN FROM HIS GRACE. BUT WITH THAT SAID SO DO MANY THAT HAVE JUDGED ME… THE SHOW MOVES IN A POSITIVE MANNER BECAUSE THATS ALL I ALLOW AROUND ME. IM STILL STANDING BECAUSE GOD SAVED ME FROM MYSELF AND IM STILL NOT WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT MY JOURNEY THERE MAY HELP SOMEONE WHOS ON A LIFE JOURNEY TOO. WITH THAT SAID.IM OPEN TO A FEW QUESTIONS IF YOU LIKE.
Hey Monica.
I don’t really have a question but as I said earlier I saw some pictures of you and your boo and it made me
I know that loving feeling and it’s written all over your face. I never knew how much people judge single mothers until I came to this site. & that’s real talk.
Keep doing you. Oh I do have a question were you able to get a copy of my book? I gotta make it to heaven for going thru Hell. you can find it on amazon. If you like reading you’ll love the book.
Can’t wait for your CD.
Wassup Monica? You know we got you, supporting everything you’ve done and strive to do. TEAM MONICA, fa real.
I saw you on a couple of JD’s LTL on youtube and can’t wait for the slow jams. That’s when you shine, mami.
Can we get back to live bands in studio? The synthesizer is lame.
Q: Though we all try not to live with regrets and learn from things of our past, what is something that stands out that if you had to do over again, you either wouldn’t, or you’d do differently?
AM, quote me a scripture like only u can.
I agree with you, but I basically just want good ole music back. I can’t take the radio, so I’m compelled to listen to cds in my ride, or youtubin 70 80 90’s music all the time. It’s not much current music I listen to.
Q: With so much to juggle. Kids, Work, family do you find time for yourself. Is it stressful trying to meet so many demands while still trying to be the best you can be?
Life demands are DE DAMN MANDING! Calgon take me away!!!
Heeey Monica! I’m loving your show already. Are you going to spend a lot of time singing/in the studio on the show? I REALLY hope so. I enjoy seeing artists in the moment, doing their thing.
Cute kids, lovely family. Thank you for giving us something positive, interesting, and real to watch in reality television. Really.
Hey Monica I was one who had constructive criticsm but as I said I will still be watching and buying your cd! I am going to NC this wkend and makings of me is one of my travel cds!
Be blessed and I stay loving your BOOTS!
hey Monica,
I understand when you say you surround yourself with only positive so thats the show. And thats how it should be. With that being said, life will still present its tests and trials. I want to see how you handle those both the average that we all deal with and the ones we can’t imagine because we aren’t recording artists. That will make for a good tv show.
Also agree with point about music today. I saw you want to do ballads and thats great can’t think of many who’d do it as well but I also would love to hear some QUALITY uptempo stuff 70’s 80’s style, ala Chaka, Envogue, even some I guess you would call mid tempo like Mary Jane Girls, Teena Marie, Mary,You(just one dem days)
where is everybody?
I”m ready to chat with Mo!
Heeeey Monica!! Glad to have you back. Loved the show!!
Question: Last night you talked about a significant other taking his life and you witnessing the event. How did you overcome that ordeal? I dont koow how I would’ve made it through.
WELL Ms. Monica I would like to apologize to you personally for the COMMENTS I’ve made regarding your MAN in the past… Not that I didn’t mean them BUT talking about him through YOU isn’t right, I SHOULD reserve that FOR HIM (And Him Only…)
And NO I don’t expect you to respond to me …
I’ve ALWAYS had nothing but respect for YOUR talents-n-accomplishments and YES I’m a huge fan of you-n-your work ALONG with your struggles in life !!! I MYSELF was a single-parent rearing my daughter by myself AND I have nothing but respect for those that make the true sacrifice to be the best PARENT they can possibly be…
BTW I’m a Very Proud Black MAN
my apologies for the delay in response, Lil Rocko and i were going over his homework. @iscream. i do not have your book.. i love to read, but i havent had much time to do it lately. and it hasnt been stressful balancing it all. but it is really hard to unwind. so ive been doing things that i dont normally do.i take walks, or after the boys are asleep i turn everything off and think and pray. as parents we have to steal the little moments but it sure does help
Monica do you still see Jarvis(I think that’s his name who took his life) daughter? I hope that isn’t to personal or sensative if so apologies.
Monica girl I am your biggest fan OMG I swear I am in shock right now why don’t you ever come to Chicago minus the child crimes it’s really a great place.
IScream I love your hustle girl
I just watched because nothing was on my t.v. I have to say I liked it. She has a realness like Keisha Cole, but none of the drama. It doesn’t seem to be anything like the other BET reality shows from what I see so far. I appreciate the fact that she doesn’t have a heavy accent like a couple of people on another BET show. I found it hard to understand them at times. I’ll definitely watch again. She seems like a great mom.
See…that’s how you answer a dang question!
@e love, thank u.its not easy out here but regardless to the faces Rocko may make in a photo (lol) he happily takes good care of his children. and that allows me to work and know they are in good hands. i respect you alot know. and appreciate that you will judge ME for ME. not anyone else..love a man raising their kids so all my blessings to you as well
If you have a chance stop by my site I have great stories on there I can spell the name out Sandra is banning folks and I’m not on the blog roll but you can click on my name.
***meant to say can’t**** Monica do you like the Frankie and Neffe Show???? And have you spoken to Ke Ke
monica out of all of your studio albums, which is your favorite? im sure u like all of them, but which one stands out more to you
thanks
2nichelle , i was just in chicago about a month ago and really enjoyed performing … but girl i couldnt handle that rain and wind
Hi Monica. I enjoyed the show. You really do seem to have a great energy…just so down-to-earth & sweet. I referred to my two fav Monica song’s in post #55. (So if you come to the BAY…I’ll be there & PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE sing these songs!—Why is it that artists tend to only sing the radio songs in concerts?????? True fans will know most of your ish so sing ‘em ALL!)
In reference to you sayin’ people threw dirt on your name….unless I’m missinig something, I’ve never really heard too much shady ish concerning you. NEVER heard you’ve been RAN THRU by half these industry cats…no sex tapes….you ain’t been to jail (that I know of)….so by industry standards you seem pretty clean! LOL
Now I think I read something some years ago about the young man’s (who committed suicide) family feeling like you were exploiting the situation by making a song about it. Was that true? More recently I thought I heard you still play a part in his child(ren’s) life(s).
I am excited like Charles gets for Brandy….
Sorry I had no idea this was a live chat. My comment was rambling because I figured I would be the last post of the night. Sorry guys, have a good night.
@Monica yeah and the hawk finna touch down I’m mad I didn’t know about that I didn’t hear anything about it.
@lady justice… i still really love the first one miss thang … the reason is because my only focus in life was to sing. i was only 12 when i recorded it and for that reason it was pure
@Monica
AFTER reading your welcome I JUST HAD to because like I stated I’m a HUGE fan and yes I have all of your cd(s)… NOT BOOTLEG !!! And the FACT that he makes your hectic life much easier gives me a NEW-FOUND respect for him BECAUSE women like yourself DESERVE NOTHING LESS — IMO
@trynabeam, in still standing the reason i said that is because at times (not all the time) people have told untrue things about me and my life and usually its about people i have loved… however it hasnt been as bad as some so it wasnt a complaint. just me testifying about the fact that no matter how big or small the lie is i dont let it get me down. gotta keep your head to the sky
Good evening all!
Hi Monica.
I enjoyed the show. The kids are so precious. I really enjoyed seeing them. I hear you when it comes to those moments. Because of the age of the boys, do you think you will bring them along, when you go into HEAVY promo for the album? I was happy to see your mom come by, reminds me of the support my mother is with my daughter.
@Isc- I bypass the comments made about single mom’s because people love to critique the story of another. Especiallym, without even thinking about what its really like to walk a mile in the shoes of that person. IMO people should talk less and observe more,you learn this way.
DISCLAIMER- I am not in a clique with Isc. Pardon typose if any.
Iyonah
at not in a clique
@divinebrown.. the only way hat i made it through was God and a strong family.. we are all very close and we all stick together. we dont let anyone or anything come between us. i appreciate them for never leaving my side. i was only 18 when that happened to me. but my sleepless nights were over once i realized God was in control of my life and that if i changed some things he would do the rest
MY BAD…..I had to look thru the track listings…I ALSO LOVE “U AIN’T GOTTA GO HOME” w/ DMX (blow that one out too if u slide thru the BAY!)
And I know you are a pretty postive person….but keep it 100…what was it like working w/ X? Were you all actually in the studio together or didju lay the tracks separately?
I won’t ask anymore questions….I know there is a one question limit….to be fair to others.
@isc people kill me talking smack when they know they’ve been at the chop shop plenty of times and wanna look down on somebody—whatever—
Anyhow my dinner came out good of course I made some smothered pork chops with bell pepper and onions, broccoli and cheese, white rice and dinner rolls. Can u cook Monica
@iyonah.. i agree with you 300 percent.
I’m done to I got a little excited_-I’ll go eat—–>
Oops, didn’t know this is an actual live chat (I thought the clip was of Monica live chatting).
Hey Monica!! Thanks for stopping in.
I didn’t see your show only because I don’t tune into BET. From the comments, I will make a point to see it. Not a fan of RHOA or the hard core drama shows, so I’ll probably like yours.
Monica….
We all noticed that your make-up is always on point. But, make is only pretty when your skin is pretty. What is your skin care regimen? I.E. what products do you use?
Does your make-up artist use mostly MAC eyeshadow?
nichelle u always have those fye dinners. 30-minutes meals are my thing, lol
Thank you Monica -but what bout those boys? Lol, they are so cute!
@trynabeme, X was so easy to work with… i kow your saying yeah right but its no lie. i run a tight ship at work but im also very personable. and that made him comfortable. we worked and talked about family.. i spoke to his wife tashera and we all just had fun. but i think its because you get back the energy you give off.
oh…there’s a limit to questions?
My apologies, Sandy.
HI MONICA
What you said in your post was moving. You get nothing but respect from me. Good luck on your show. I hope your show remains positive and upbeat.
@ ladyjustice lol
Great question DB
I didn’t realize how many ppl believe women w/o kids have been to the clinic until I started posting on here. Interesting
I think everybody situation is different but I do wish we had less single teen moms but I do not judge them either. We have all sinned n fallen short at the end of the day.
@ sunny pa , check it out… its not typical reality tv because i live different. no disrespect to the other shows but god laid some things on my heart and through the show i share them with the world.
@Nichelle
IF you can’t SHARE then don’t TELL (And I’m in the CHI !!!)
NOW I’m all hungry again
AND to 2nd, 3rd and 4th comment 83 …
Ms. Sandra you can CANCEL the other live-chats BECAUSE it gets no real-er than THIS RIGHT HERE along w/ the 1st one
We Thank You in Advance !!!
Thanks for responding/stopping by MO! Stay strong sistah! MUCH continued success & blessings to YOU & YOURS!
2 divine brown.. i keep it simple. i use cetaphil soap and facial moisturizer .. thats it
Daisy why you
I ride SOLO!
SR I sent you something too
oh and yes i can cook…i just enjoy baking more.. key lime cake, cookies, brownies, pound cake , strawberry cake and many more
Divinebrown Says:
oh…there’s a limit to questions?
My apologies, Sandy.
———————————————–
She made reference to it before….but it doesn’t seems to be as crowded tonight…maybe because she didn’t give prior notice about the chat.
I am sorry. These comments are too long. WT__??
@pointhimout.. the only thing in my life that i would change if i could are the years that i was concerned about what people thought and not christ. that lead me into most of the mistakes i made and that was in my teenage years but its a new day.. i only have a testimony because i have had some test
Mental note: WOWWW!! ANOTHER FRIEND OF MINE SAID THE SAME THING!! Look for Cetaphil!! It must be genetics!
Sidebar: I hate waiting on people’s albums to drop. I feel like I wait for freakin ever. Monica, I super hype for your next album. YA’LL NEED TO GO ON AHEAD AND DROP THAT!! I haven’t been this excited since Jill Scott’s last CD.
i use cetaphil too. awesome stuff
hey monica. i enjoyed the show last night and now i am even a bigger fan than before. thanks for showing the world your life and inner circle and for being such a positive influence.
also thanks for chatting with the srose community.
Iyonah we all ride solo
Monica I agree you are the best live blogger by far on SR
wassup up Mo? its ya boy jwhit214 from twitter….just wanted to say congratz! im so proud of u and keepin doin u! real fans appreciate u! did u know ur show was seen by 3.2 million? thats amazing! when will the singles be sent to radio and what happened to the two new episodes?
@Monica
Hey girl I hope your good I am glad to know that you’re one of the smart entertainers in the industry and I can’t bake to save my life (I’m so mad I can’t bake nothing but a box cake)… But I can’t wait to hear new music from you and your reality show is very different from most and i’ll be watching… Your make up artist does a good job with you.
And your kids are cutie pies and your thank you post was very good hope to see you write more often on here but I know your busy…..
This is how live chatting is done
Monica, I liked the show.
Why could you only feature 10 songs on your album? And do you feel this is a make or break album?
My daughter (23 y/o) just said that she and her friends like your show. She said it’s a nice change. Rather than laughing at you, they are taking the journey with you (ahhhhhh, I didn’t know my daughter had that in her).
alright guys gotta go feed my kids stay blessed Monica and I will do a give-a-way on my site for your cd I did the same for Keri Hilson so I have to show you he same love
@Monica, Not that I have fully apprehended (mastered life)forgetting those things which are behind me. I press toward for the prize of the high calling which is in Christ Jesus.
In a nutshell, keep it current. Selah.
*Rather than laughing at you (as in laughing at all the coonery).
@attorneymom
i cant even see some of the comments, its almost like a delayed response..
@Candi Apple…I WAS BURNT! (YES…i SAID BURNT)
Burnt the heck up about that!!!!
Yes 10 songs is short but I will still cop it!
Monica I agree you are the best live blogger by far on SR
is monica still on? how does the label decide on how many songs go on the album? i mean some people have more than 10…also, is the house done?

luv u mo
Question:
Monica do you watch any other reality shows (in your free time of course)?If so which ones?
And this live chat does make me see Monica more as a real down to earth person(and I already view her as one)And I didn’t no you didn’t like that every time the beat drop girl I gave that song a chance because it was you if it was some one else.
I like that song, it wasn’t classic Monica, but def asong thath was in the NOW. Lol @ the SMILEY though.
@MISSY I like that song, it wasn’t classic Monica, but def a song that was in the NOW. Lol @ the SMILEY though
Darn it I came to late anyway i’ll go back to my regularly scheduled program. {gonna eat}
Monica I have a daughter name Kyra who is 11 years old and LOVES YOU.Can you PLEASE say/type hi to her. She saw you sing at the B.E.T Awards and her mouth was on the floor,every since then she has been listening to you.I had to pull out your first cd.She could not believe you were on 12. thanks
I loved everytime the beat dropped
I okay, I said I wouldn’t ask anymore questions……….BUUUUUUUUUUT……you felt that way about Everytime the Beat Drop…..what did you feel about, Too Hood???????
I didn’t “dislike” either one…..but I AM partial to your ballads. Your voice is AMAZING!
@iyonah
I know it wasn’t classic Monica but I knew it was what was selling at the time….. but that smiley was needed lol
Yall, She’ll be back don’t take it personel
sorry meant to say she couldn’t believe you were only 12.please come back Monica.
Oh when i wrote (she didn’t like it) i meant to say she thought it wasn’t a good representation of her but she did it.
I love don’t take it personal,Angel of Mine, and So gone with that nice looking man derek luke
(i like more of her songs but i’ll digress)
Sandra becoming the baddest blogger in the game.
Keep it up you gonna blow up
Mo, thanks for answering my questions.
who ever asked about the 10 songs that was a good one. What’s up with that? I hope it’s more ballads than dance upbeat songs.
I’m happy you are walking with God and not just speaking it but showing it in your day to day living and actions. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!!!!
Missy I will fight n cut you over Derek Luke you have been warned
Isc
actions def speak louder than words n JUDGEMENT! CHURCH
& I think it’s silly that we have to say not a clique even as a joke because we are a web family. Families don’t always get along and sometimes will irk you more than anyone. Family will judge you quicker than an outsider but will fight for you at the same time.
As much crap as Sandra pops if she was to post a hate mail right now. We would be up in the comments
busting off.
& Mo as the Queen of our live Chat you can best believe you are apart of our family. (can’t say the same for all of them) You know sometimes you get those inlaws that just don’t belong.
Monica,
Thanks for participating.
Good Nightand thanks again LJ!
Monica handled the hate from the beginning. Takes skills. I think the other live chats had problems because they got overwhelmed and defensive. They should have taken on question at a time. The short answers highlighted that the chatters still need to mature and are not ready for the people.
A wise man told me once. A hungry bear saw some nuts in the hole of a tree, he put his paw in the tree and grabbed a fist full of nuts. When he tried to pull the fist full of nuts out the hole he lost all the nuts. He tried to take all the nuts out the tree instead of grabbing one at at time.
I missed mo again
singing…..
You don ‘t move too fast or make me rush
No one day we’re gonna talk about making love
No doubt baby when the time is right
Mizz you did NOT do a good job of KILLING the word “hate” earlier today
I dont think anybody hated on Monica or the show. Some including myself found it a little slow others loved it simple as that nothing more nothing less.
@Daisy
Missy I will fight n cut you over Derek Luke you have been warned .

Hey Monica you looked pretty on the red carpet kiss the kids and dont forget to let me know about your other event. Thanks
I guess people have selective reading or reading what they want to see.
The word hate will never die people only get upset by the use when its fitting. Because seeing that my post was taken personally I figure its fitting
Thanks for stopping by Mo! I just got in so I missed her live chat! I went to see “Law Abiding Citizen” tonight and Mo is a registered member so she decided to stop in and chat with you guys. We appreciate her! And if you only see one movie this year, make sure it’s “Law Abiding Citizen”! I got one word: INTENSE!

Damn I missed the chat! Thanks for showing us more love Monica. I agree that you are definately the best chat but Kandi was good ass well. I’d be content just with u both.
Catch you next time
I am a Monica Fan to the death. But, I felt BET dropped the ball by not playing two new episodes back to back. People thought it was a new episode at 10:30p. That was pretty dum to re-air behind each other. Get it together BET. She already had a bad situation on Peachtree TV in Atlanta!!!!!!!
The show was a little boring for me, but I still enjoyed seeing Monica in full grown woman mode and of course every chance I get to lay eyes on those two little cuties is a good thing. I’m going to keep watching in anticipation that it will get better. The awards show was not all that either.
@Monica, Not that I have fully apprehended (mastered life)but this one thing I have done. Forgetting those things which are behind me and I press toward for the prize of the high calling which is in Christ Jesus.
In a nutshell, keep it current. Selah.
WE WANT CHARLES!! WE WANT CHARLES!!
Good Morning …
@Sandra - Was Jamie not extra? He made is seem corny in the promos, but if you say its good. I will go see it this weekend. I haven’t been to a movie in a while.
sorry i missed the show. i thought it was reruns of the first one. will tivo it now.
on the last one, i realized that rocko is actually cuter than he appears on his pictures. since monica is now reading the blog, it should be fun to watch and comment. i’m looking forward to the studio stuff!!
and last but not least, please leave the doo-rags alone!
um go Phillies
I have never and will never like the word hate THE END!
Bird I guess that makes u a hater as well since ppl want to hold on to that word for dear life. I guess one can no longer have an opinion in this thing called life *sighs*
I want to see Jamies movie I heard it was good!
Sandra … where are you? Its 8:59!

**********************************************************
Jamie Foxx is at his best when he’s doing slapstick comedy. This dramatic role was very complex and demanding for him. But he pulled it off really well. Go see this movie. You will be startled by the intensity of it. I’m usually running my mouth during movies and my friend is usually telling me to hush. But last night I was speechless. Excellent movie!
Sandra you liked that movie? It was alright at best for me, made me wonder how Jamie Foxx ever won an Oscar; he’s not leading man material to me or maybe he needs to do a different genre.
@ KaraZ:
That’s why I said he’s best at slapstick comedy. This role was very demanding and it stretched his acting capabilities. You can see he was struggling in some parts. But overall it was the intensity of the movie that had me
You can’t say this wasn’t a good movie.
I am going to the movies tonight. I forgot about “Law Abiding Citizen”. It does look like it’s going to be good. I want to see “This Is It”. Eastpoint mentioned it in a earlier post.
@SandraRose, considering the crap that Hollywood has been churning out lately, the movie is one of the better ones this year I suppose, though most of the characters lacked depth, but hey Regina Hall got a gig out of it, can’t be mad at that.
GM Family,
Jamie won that Ocsar, b/c he TURNED INTO Ray Charles…..and he deserved it!
@ sponge, I know that’s right! Awe I missed Mo…
I am going to take you word and go see it Sat night SR.
@katgirl - I
he played that role very well, I would never deny him that.
How do I change my pic?
I think Jamie is a good actor. One of the better ones actually. He transitioned nicely from comedy to drama. He was good in Collateral, Kingdom, Jarhead, Dreamgirls, and the Tookie Williams story. Those are just the ones I remember. I haven’t seen Law Abiding Citizen yet though.
Daisy you are absolutely right when you said people can’t have opinions now without being called haters. I really ha-
can’t stand that.
Ioyanh click on a link on this site that says gravatar enabled or I guess you could do a search for that site and log in under your email to your gravatar account.
@wiggy
I agree! so everything we say we dont like or disagree with we are “haters” then I guess I will be just that! lol
The fog is thick here and I am not fully awake. Did I imagine a post about a 11 yr old kid missing?
not unless you, I and 6 others who posted all had the same dream
Nope Anna, it wasn’t a dream….
Auntie snatched it when she got word they found the boy……or when she seen the family asking what that boy was doing rollin the BMW
Me too MissDallas, all of us non kool-aid drinkers(which needs to go away too)might just be considered the haters clique.
@wiggy… I HOPE Not because y’all are amongst my favorite Peeps Soooooooo I would have to join y’all
@Shauny (No I’m not picking on you - LMAO) but Jamie was actually GREAT in Collateral & Dream-Girls
And Gerad Butler has been greatly wasted in these JUNK-AZZ romantic comedies… He’s Made-n-Built for these kind os roles and movies — IMO
@iyonah… So WHAT’S WRONG with the “Sexxy-Back” pic
