Publicity Stunt for Bow Wow album release?

Bow Wow and Omarion performed on BET’s 106 & Park yesterday. The same day that his publicist sent out a press release stating Bow Wow was hospitalized with appendicitis, a sometimes fatal acute infection of the appendix. Yet here’s Bow Wow performing live – something he certainly would not be able to do if he had even the mildest form of appendicitis.

I was warned by someone in New York that this was a publicity stunt to publicize Omarion and Bow Wow’s album which drops today. The funny thing is, I didn’t even know they had an album coming out. So I guess the ruse worked.

What’s up with this boy’s hair? Is he trying to send a subliminal message to Lloyd? I’m not feeling Omarion’s metrosexual look, but I am starting to believe the rumors. Is Omarion being styled by Vogue Editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley too?

Sandra, the site is coming along. Congrats. I’ve yet to say that. ha ha Anyhoo, Omarion’s hair is……..frizzy and dare I say he looks almost the fool in that last pic. They were on Big Boy’s radio show this morning talking about the record. The little bit I heard of the interview, nothing about his appendicitis was mentioned. Here’s my thing, if you didn’t hear about the album (and you’re affiliated with the industry) how do they think this ‘stunt’ will bump sales or increase interest from people who aren’t affiliated at all? (i.e. their fans) If it is indeed a stunt, I’d say that some starruhs will do anything for publicity instead of letting their work speak for itself.

I could live with him having the scarf on outside in the cold, but he is taking it too far by making it part of his indoor attire. He looks silly. If he wants to wear his hair out, it should probably be trimmed rather than just taking out the cornrows and shaking it out. His sneakers are an eyesore as well. He’s just not looking good in this pic and I usually like his style.

As for Bow Wow, who knows what’s up with that?

Another site is reporting the Bow Wow really went to the hospital for an injury sustained while throwing a temper tantrum in his dressing room. They claim he was upset because Chris Brown (with his young sexy self)was moved to the closer (main) spot at the end of their show. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I think it is hella funny!!!

Omarion looks a plum fool. What’s with the Skinny Jeans he insist on wearing. I will be glad with that silly scarf trend ends. Boo.

This is the worst I have ever seen him look, I wish he would lose the braids and those tapered jeans, can’t stand this new scarf look.

All that picture proves, that no amount of money in the world can by class and style. Dude looks fucked up and thats putting it mildly.

Also, I really wish Bow Wow would go sit the hell down. Does he not realize that he will never achieve greatness at least not lyrically anyway. Dude has been branded a teeny bopper forever…….

Omarion reminds me of a Zesty version of “Beloved”.

the more these two do promo for their wack-ass album, the more i am inclined to believe they share a sexual relationship..ugh, these boys are grinding my gears..

BOO! to these two clowns for thinking this was a good idea. I had my appendix removed about six months ago and trust and believe it was NO JOKE! As a matter of fact, my surgeon said I had chronic appendicitis which is a brewing form of the illness, and had I not gone in to be seen when I did LORD KNOWS what could have happened. AND I was in the hospital recovering for 3 days on on disability from work for 6 weeks. I’ll give these clowns some slack and say maybe my form was stronger then Lil Bow Wow’s. In any case I don’t think he’d be up and running so quickly if it was a true case of the sudden death virus. Y’all know you can die quick if the appendix rupture so I call it the sudden death trap.

Without the hideous scarf I’d rock that outfit wit some open toe pumps anyday lol
