Remember When Columbus Short Was Sexy?
Actor Columbus Short, star of the films You Got Served and Stomp the Yard, was spotted leaving the Entertainment Basketball League game on Sunday (Feb. 13). The 28-year-old sported a beer belly and a receding hairline. Remember when he was so fine back when he was a dancer for Britney Spears? Short’s next movie role will be in the action comedy, The Wannabes, in which he plays a villain.

@SANDRA ROSE
THIS is the new post we get???
I’ve never thought he was that attractive.
I never could see what all the hype was about
I never thought he was sexy. Don’t really like dudes that are close to the ground like that
He can still get it.
Okay, I’m back. I agree. I never say what the hoopla was about this dude in the first place, but he is looking a little like Judge Joe Mathis and Michael Baisden in that 3rd. thumbnail…

nope
He alright… Judge Joe Mathis though Leapy
A man with a doo-rag AND cowboy hat hanging off his back does not = sexy
oh chit! I was willing to overlook that fact that his last name described him perfectly….I was gawn fugg on him!
why does he look that? Can he even dance anymore? where did he find that shirt?
*curls up with my ‘stomp the yard’ and ‘this christmas’ dvd*….things never stay the same…Idris betta not change on me!

SHOCKER: It’s called getting older Sandra that is what happens in LIFE. Unlike the rest of Hollywood maybe he’s doing it au natural and not sticking needles in his face and azz to be something he’s not.
I don’t think that he was in You got served that was Batman and Omarion and them… lol
What is up with his lining? #fail
Columbus Short was never sexy to me. He’s short and his hair line has always been iffy.
@ Cha, my bad..LOL…I meant Judge Greg Mathis..
and that wasn’t a compliment either.
The nigga looked slow then and he look slow now…
Matter of fact, he look like somebody’s grand daddy now! #damnyou’veagedboy!
[b]LOL[/b]

But I’m finally meeting my 1200 cal/day minnimum! Yay me!
@ Danielle and @Coco
Nawwwwww I aint short….Im 5’6. LOL…Everyday I stretch in hopes of growing 2 more feet.

*runs full speed to
SASO* How you be gawjus? I ordered my 30day shred, just waiting for it to arrive. I was cheap, ordered it on EBay for $10 
@StillASassyOne says

SASO i’m seeing some results which is very encouraging. going to cardio kickboxing tonight

omg, he looks like a garden gnome.
@Dimpz
Why on ebay? I got mine at Wal-Mart for $8. SEND IT BACK!! Let me know when you get it though! We can be working out in pain together!!
I’m great love!!
@2012
You can’t hate the white man and all things that look white-influenced, but then be going hard at other “colored” men and women. You gotta pick a kind to “hate” and stick with that one kind! You cannot branch out!
Kingstonnnn!!

I love you, Kingston! 
@ Mr.BluPhi
Oh ok! I’m 5’5″. I work with guy and I promise I can see the top of his head and he swear he is 5’7″. I just agree with him so he won’t get upset. I’ve seen him almost come to blows if someone questions him about about his height too much
Remember when he was so fine back when he was a dancer for Britney Spears?
Ms. Spears and he had a wife and kid at the crib.
——————————————————-
I remma when he was
And I also remma those pics where he was practically a double for a flaming queen….walking thru an airport with his “homies” who also looked suspect as hail.
@His
I started in January with the hope that my body will be right & tight by May! Lawd-help me please!!! *falls onto knees*
I’m fine, babes! And no- you’re not the only one!
@Candi
My homegirl who is trying to drop 50 by end of May has decided to force me to endure pilates classes with her. I know they work….but I hate fukking pilates. I think I’d rather do a military-style boot camp fitness course than endure pilates. Too damn hard!
Hello All. With the severe shortage of good black men, young and old, rich or poor, it would seem being a little bit short or a little bit bald wouldn’t be a problem. Oh well, to each his own but keep up these high physical standards and you’ll be alone for days or hooked up with another female. I’m just saying. Peace.
He looks like he my height and im 5 feet.
hey his & sassy!
@Blu
How skinny are you? (weight please or I’ll just take your measurements)
Ya’ll better get up on them short, skinny dudes. They usually got dyck for ddaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyssssss, -aysss, -ayyyssss, -ayyyyyss, -ayyyyyssss. <—— (that was my attempt an an echo)
@MR. BLU

@Man
PUT A DAMN BRA ON, SIR!!!!
So I’m the only one who thought he was kinda cute in Stomp The Yard?
@ SASO…………Ah dammit! I got 2 for $20 so, I guess it balanced out.
will do!
@Danielle
No, you’re not cause I thought Columbus was finer than a muhfugga as well. Hell- I’d do him (in his before picture.)
Just say
to potbellies.
@Dimpz
Oooohhh! What other one did you get?

Oh lord not the preference police!
Geez, people always talking about America is a free country, well guess what, you are entitled to be attracted to or have a preference for whom ever you want. Sandra said he was sexy, good black man or not, I don’t agree. It’s my freedom of choice. Please #satdown
oh goodness… he really has let himself go… smh…
i tried pilates once and HATED it! i couldn’t do most of the poses
Ya’ll better get up on them short, skinny dudes. They usually got dyck for ddaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyssssss
——————————–
true. usually, but not always. don’t ask me how i know *shines up halo*
Considering the fact that Columbus Short has a stain on his Nike jersey in the first picture, and is shirt-less in the other picture; may I suggest a DOS brand Tshirt?
i rebuke pilates
*makes two ‘fck pilates’ baby tees for me and Candi*
I think he looks OK.
I appreciate the fact that he isn’t using sharpies and shallack on his hairline and if he has a desire to get back in shape he can do it with ease I am sure
@Candi & His
I tried them 4 times in a 2-week period and said: “fukk this shyt!!”
I could do the moves but it was TOO much damn work! And every class, I kept ending up next to this old 70+ years white lady who was a “pro” and could do the moves with ease!
Bish was pissing me off and making me look bad because I couldnt keep up and needed a break and she did it all EFFORTLESSLY.
Ain’t been back since.
@Saso….mhm u right
well the shortest I ever went was an inch taller than me..and *reclines* that mufugga had..excuse me, I mean has a wooden bat in his bball shorts *faints*
#10yrsDeep
@His
I know babes! My man is 5’9 (on a good day.) And..well….I ain’t engaged to him for nothing…
#7YearsOnThatNigga
I’m only 5’9.5, but I pray God will grant me at least another 2″
mine is 6’4, i feel so safe and secure
the shortest i dated was i think 5’4 or 5’5 (i’m 5′ so that’s still a bit taller than me) but i felt weird when i could put my chin on his shoulder :-/

Da hell y’all talking bout in here??
yeah mines is 5’9 on a good day too…he used to stay tryna talk me out of wearing my heels..I’d have to remind him “height is your issue, not mines” esp since I CLEARLY have on high heels….obv that makes me taller.. he’s gotten over that by now tho
@Candi, u ain’t right
Yvonneeee
Da hell y’all talking bout in here??
——————————————–
I feel a recap coming on….
Columbus Short was never sexy to me
@HIS Why you rebuke pilates? I’m heading there in about 2 hours
Hey His Mommy!!
HE STILL IS SEXY!!!! He just thick now and as long as he dont over do it a lil thickness is good
@Renegade…my life just isn’t as limber as it used to be..I tried pilates a cpl times and was ashamed of myself
@Kdub, suppppppppppppppp?
candibfly says:
mine is 6?4, i feel so safe and secure
YEAP….LIKE HE WILL SHIELD ME FROM HALF THE HEMISPHERE
*chants* RECAP RECAP RECAP
#IHateChaCha
*puts curtain over her Gravi*
STILL no new post???
@HIS
This is my 3rd week…I’m getting a bit more limber now…my instructor is my inspiration. Her body is like
Whoa! Perfect figure…all she’s done is pilates and some cardio in between. I’m on a mission! 
MAN ………. PEOPLE ARE GONNA THINK WERE TWINS
Recap for my sis @Yvonne
———————-
This post is about a short short man…named aptly…Columbus Short. “Mr. Short” used to boink Ms. Britt Spears. When he had a wife and kid at the house. A black wife and kid. Happens like that sometimes don’t it ladies? He also has some pics in his past posted on this very site and others of him walking with a known queen and he kinda fit right in. I think if you click the link above named “Down Low Files” you can see them.
Anywho, finally we also think he is aunt Viv’s long lost son that she put up for adoption before she left Indy…cause they got the SAME HAIRLINE. They boff suffer from Way-Back Itis. Too much of a coinky dink to nig-nore
CandiB has chin-ed the hail outta some short dude’s shoulder in the past, and Sasso is mad at some limber yt old lady in her pilates class (I am too…what HER old azz been doing?)
*makes note to try pilates again this weekend* maybe i was too quick to dimiss it
Hey @ His
Good day to the rest of the fam… 
what we talkn bout??
@BIG SIS
“MAN ………. PEOPLE ARE GONNA THINK WERE TWINS
”

Well, “good looks” runs in the family!
Thanks Kdub…you totally rock!!!
Pilates rocks it will get your body looking so nice… Hate the process but love the results!!

ROFLMAO!
You know if Viv and Slime have a kid that nigga goin just grow hair on the side of they head.
@Kdub
I don’t know what her azz been doing! But Eleanor Roosevelt’s mama was getting it IN in those pilates classes, ya heard?
You a fool!
@Candi
It DEFINITELY tones you up…and rather quickly. But the pressure is just… too much. Pilates twice a week and some cardio every other day would prolly have you looking like Halle in a month or two. But I’m a p*ssy.
I’ma start back with it for my friend next week…can’t promise I’ma stick it out, though.
@Chase
The process SUCKS! I’d honestly rather just not be in shape…..it’s too damn hard!
@Renegade, I’m tryna lose this little layer of pudge that has crept over my mid-section (even tho my bew and my mother swear I’m over reacting) I’m guessing losing a good 10lbs will make me happy… I’m headed to the gym in a few hours
I may have 2 look into my new gyms pilates class..i’m tryna be fierce! *flips hair*
Can I go to the gym with you HIS
AND WATCH …I mean….

Good Afternoon EVERYBODY!!!! for some odd reason this photo is screaming photoshop to me! #Imjustsaying
Some shorties do have long thick ones and you can tell by the way they walk. I can’t tell you about the “little people” but if you know do share they have to have the rest of them somewhere?!
He still looks okay, but he needs to hit the gym a few times a week…then maybe we can talk.
He’s not my type but he’s cute. I’m surprised he’s only 28. *side-eye*
who’s not sexy when they’re early 20′s? you dont have to work at having abs and a killer body. welcome to your grown man wait, sir.
***weight
OMG, im so glad you posted this today! I used to be so inlove with him till I heard he cheated on his 8mth preggo (wife?) with Brittiny Spears… He’s still cute, but its different now. Good to know he’s so regular and Im glad its ok I dont know him now in real life! He cheats, gets fat, and his hair line receeds… I’m not missing much:)
He’s from Kansas City, Mo. KC is filled with short men and tall women.
