Celeb Style: Gabby Sidibe (What The Hail Happened?)

Sandra Rose November 18, 2009

Here I was defending newcomer and star of ‘Precious’ Gabby Sidibe from heartless readers who mocked her personal style — and then she does this? Everything is wrong with these pics. The dress, the lacefront, the fish oil makeup — all wrong! How does this happen to a woman who is so sweet? Obviously her stylist (if she has one) has it in for her.

Doesn’t Gabby kinda remind you of Angel from Concrete Poop?

SHE SWEATIN LIKE A PIG AT A BARBECUE!

Maybe she’s drunk too. Is she sweating?
Mahogany03

at this post!

The only thing nice about these pics is the color of the dress. My wigs look better than that, and I bought them from Beauty Mark. Step ya game up Gabby!
Ghanaflower

Sandra, is obvious that she is Big Boned and will sweat more under heat. She is not used to fame or being out in the public either so please bloggers need to cut her some slack. The poor girl is trying…yes that WIG might be from the 50’s or probably her mum’s closet but she is not Paris hilton that can afford a stylist…I honestly feel sorry for this girl..she seems sweet
waterlily_76

Yes, she is a sweet person and I wish her the best.

But they need to pump the brakes, put it in reverse and start over with this getup.
Leesa

Ok so I haven’t seen the movie Precious and I really don’t want to. What’s so different about this movie that you can’t go to your local hood and find? Call it ignorance, whatever <~~~my opinion

Now as of this look Gabby is sporting. I think it is awful. Sweet girl, but I must go in. This dress does nothing for her at all. Stylist or not ….there are mirrors. God bless her for having confidence in wearing some of these dresses.

The red dress she was first seen in for the premieres was a very good look for her. Keep them arms covered and the face less greasy and you will be fine!
missy

She doesn’t look that bad……..And the whole Angel of CL was so unnecessary she doesn’t look that tore up……I am giving Gabby a official pass of no shade from Missyshe is to nice of a girl(yes I changed my P.O.V)

Her hair looks off that’s why she looked liked that……and comment one…..if its hot it doesn’t matter how skinny you are you will sweat.

Oh forgot to add this :homoswitch:

The title of this post should be called “Say something nice Challenge”. I’ll start: **clears throat** She is smiling with her eyes.

Who got next??
Leesa

There is no such thing as being big boned. That is a myth!

Thats just neglect of one’s body. PERIOD!

I work at a hospital. That big boned down south bullcrap is for the birds. Work the h*ll out and results will come. If not you will look like the picture above. Nuff said!
http://charactercorner.blogspot.com attorneymom

Why do big women try to dress like little women? Blank stare. She needs comedian Monique’s current stylist.
Redeemed777

Well, she should try to invest in some vigorous exercise…..10 push-ups and 20 sit-ups a day! Plus run 2 miles on the tracks.
jazi65

The dress is not flattering but I do like the color. I hope she hires a stylist for the Oscars (yes she will get the nod)
BROWNSUGAPOET

my comment wasn’t directed at her size so if you thought when i said pig i was referring to her that was NOT the case

I was referring to how much she was sweating, judt like I said it about her I’d sayit about anybody else who I see sweating a lot big or small!
Quitta

Yeah it looks like she’s sweating. Maybe that wig is making her sweat.

@ Leesa-Well I consider Beyonce somewhat “big-boned”-she’ll never b a naturally skinny girl.

@Topic

The color is wrong, the cut is wrong. I actually think thats a wig and not a LF.

go to the corna @ attorneymom
she’s trying to find her style. We all have our off days. I know I sure do and it was last friday. I looked a hot mess.

this dress is not flattering to her body at all. Gabby needs to lay off the bright colors as well.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That was just wrong on soooo many levels. Funny, but wrong.

This poor child, where do I begin? Oh, yes, that God awful wig. I have nothing…
The dress: I am going to need for her (just like her co-star Monique),to keep her arms covered at ALL times.
The shoes: Lawd!
The makeup: Did her 5 year old sister do that?
The sweating: Girlfriend, carry a cute little rag and dab your face every now and again. Unless you are working out, mowing the lawn or There is no need for you to be sweating like that.
That is all.

@jem

Lets try the term proportioned based on genetics. No study proves big-boned is an existing factor to obese people.

@ Quitta
It could be a combination od the lights and the wig. I’ve worn a wig once and it did make me sweat but it could have been because my was a cheaper one.
brucebaner1

Hey all!

She’s a big girl that just got thrusted into Hollywood. I’m skinny and would probably be sweating because I’m nervous. Now add 200 lbs, a wig/weave, (shrugs shoulders)a tight gown, and 50 cameras. Good luck to her. Hopefully she loses some weight. Oprah is rich and can’t seem to keep the weight off!
http://oneperfectassistant.com ggouch

WOW!!, Okay…I was so on the defence with earlier posts about Gabby’s style and how she needed a moment.

…BUT-TUM, I-UHM, I guess-uhm….Well-UHM….I just don’t know what to say.
Sweet Mango

Maybe she can be on the next season of Celebrity Fit Club?? Or the biggest loser? She just needs a little motivation.

I like the color of her dress!
missy

And every celeb has to go through a transition at the beginning of their career in order to find their style….So no shade from me.. but if she is still like this next year…. I won’t be as nice…

On second thought, big people tend to sweat more easily. I think their bodies get overheated quicker than smaller people.

that is so mean…
shannon04

She just needs to get a new stylist and they need to dress her accordingly, being that she is a big girl and all.
Some women are ok being a little heavier than others and I have seen some sisters that wear the weight well. Gabby is young but at some point she will probably start working on slimming down a bit. (I am not going in on anybody thats a little larger..so please do not blast me fam).
MzSharon

She really could stand to lose a little weight!! It just doesn’t “look” healthy. And someone did try to coordinate the makeup colors with the dress, so that’s a plus for effort. A kind heart & nice personality trumps everything else (physically, IMO), but she still should lose some weight for health reasons.
Mahogany03

There’s no such thing as being “big-boned”. Overweight and obese people have the same bone mass/size as other people…..I saw it on the Discovery Channel

You need to stop i am trying to be nice today an y’all saying comments like this “This young lady looks like a grease monkey… Who is behind her.. This is a SMH”

That dress is a beautiful color. Wow, she needs to drop some poundage she’s a beautiful woman though. But her health concerns me and I can’t say anything about somebody sweating, if I breathe hard I sweat and I’m skinny, it’s a genetic thing for some people.
j.c.

i feel so bad for her only because she’s so young and have been thrown into the “business”. i will not pick at her. it’s just not right.

From the interviews I’ve seen she seems like a sensible, sweet, lady.

But I’d be lying if I said she isn’t hard to look at. Even 50 lbs would help. And some industrial spanx, and… sleeves. Bless her heart.

What’s up with all the do some exercise and lose some weight comments? I don’t follow ‘Gabby’ like that, so I am not sure if SHE said SHE wanted to lose any weight. If SHE wants to lose weight, then I say good luck. If not, then I say be YOU, ‘Gabby’.

I explained myself because I wanted it to be clear that my comment wasn’t directed at her size because I didn’t want to offend anyone. So how you figure me explaining what I meant by my comment as being sensitive is beyond me. If someone misinterprets what you say don’t you explain yourself? But anyway I didn’t come on here to go back and forth with people so it is what it is

I am all for the big girls, but if you are sweating when you are standing still, then it’s time for you to lose weight.. Sorry..

I hope she finds a good stylist. I think she is just trying to wing it, and her folks are setting her up for ridicule.

She has worked off 40 pounds so far, so all these fake ass fitness instructors being mean can kick rocks. She can’t drop the weight all at once. The only way she could do that is if she went on that crack diet. Cut her some slack.

LOL @ Tori V and LadeeA
BamaBeauty

She is new to the industry…who knew you had to have 5lbs of non- fish oil makeup, a killer lacefront, a whole team of stylists, surgery, airbrushing, and list of other fakeries….This is what happens when a real woman steps into the big lights; without the truth of the industry. Even the fakest have bad days. Sadly, she will soon be pressured to fit into the typical mold. I hope she can learn from this picture without going through extremes Did I mention that I actually like her?

@92 Charles

LOL she isn’t ugly she’s just fat as hell. I just want to put her ass on a damn threadmill, my boyfriend looked at me like I was evil when I said that when the commercial came on one time.

Precious will probably be her last movie because she has a lot going against her she’s obese, she’s African-American not only that but a dark-skinned African-American (and we are very low on Hollywood’s totem pole), and oh yeah again she’s fat. Hollywood is too image conscious for her. I’m sure she’s a nice person though or at least I hope she is. Because if she’s a bitch, she has no room to be one (no pun intended)

I don’t care Tyler Perry has Cora in his movies and plays and she never looks like this. She is representing herself and the movie and Monique should know how to give this girl a hand. When she gets older and looks back at these photos she will feel like they could have helped me out. Oprah and Tyler need to be ashamed of themselves for letting her go on the red carpet like this. She looks very uncomfortable.

@Ghanaflower
@Jem

No such thing as big bone. Example Oprah and Star Jones. Big then small then big again. Now, there are body types that carry weight differently Beyonce carries her weight on her lower body and it looks good. Curvy women who carry weight on their lower body (thighs, hips and butt) can carry a few more extra pounds than women who carry weight on their upper body i.e. neck, back, arms, stomach ect. And it still looks good. Unfortunately, many of the curvy women are 200plus and that size is generally too big for any woman unless she’s over 6 ft.

I also had the same opinion, however, I saw her in an interview on the today show. Her personality is so beautiful that to a certain extent you overlook her appearance. If you closed your eyes and just listened, you would think that she’s a well spoken white girl.

Gab is a pretty girl. Her weight got her the role. Now it is time for both of us to lay aside every weight (pounds) that is so easily beset us.

The Divine Ms. K

Ya’ll need to stay off Lifetime…Bastard Out of Carolina is one of my favs to watch on there.

As for Gabby – she’s new and needs a stylist. I’ve seen questionable outfits AND makeup on some more known – and skinnier – industry folks and they are no better with it just because they can hula-hoop w/ a Cheerio.

She was AWESOME in Precious and yes there is abuse in it – but she gets redemption in the end, so ya’ll please go see it and support.
The Divine Ms. K

@ ViBaby – I just read the synopsis of the film An American Crime. I can see how that one gave you nightmares.

It’s exhausting thinking about why people in the world are so evil and sick and twisted.
SouthernPrincess

Gabby needs a stylist, yes but “Hollywood” doesn’t have a lot of stylist capable of properly styling plus sized people and finding designers that carry her size will be a problem as well. Especially high end designers. I think that as time goes on and she becomes accustomed to Hollywood and she gets a great team (PR, stylist, etc.) with her she will be just fine. Also she needs a great makeup artist she seems like “regular” makeup was used on her and I think she needs a heavier makeup for the lights and heat from the flashing bulbs….

**AttorneyMom** The movie portrays “good” light skin actors because thats how the book describes them. Precious had some serious color issues.

& in regards to her losing weight, if she’s comfortable with what weight she is and is most importantly HEALTHY, she just needs to learn how to better dress herself for the size she is. Now, if there are health problems…she needs to fix that.

I’m not on here to talk about folks but I just want to say that she need to get that sweating thing checked out. I’m concerned about her health, it’s not cool. Have yall seen Dr. Oz? He spoke about sweating and all that stuff. Maybe she should get at him.

I think Gabby is a beautiful young lady and seems as though she has a very sweet spirit…I hope people don’t actually think just because they are saying mean things about her that her life is going to crumble she has probably heard it all but in the end God will take that same “fat, ugly, too dark to be on TV, what did she have on person” and turn them into something great…(Biggie,black and ugly as ever however)I wish nothing but the best for Gabby and I hope she is a beacon of light for other little girls that want to pursue acting but feel they are too dark or too fat to do so and only see the images of video models with big azz. Gabby might not know it yet but she is an inspiration to someone.

____________________________________________________________I hear you. It’s not right to pick on people who look like that. Nobody is perfect and they didn’t ask to be born that way. We gotta try to remember that we all will have to answer in the end. It’s not worth messing up the respect that I have for God and for others. I’m happy for this young lady, she deserves the spotlight. Get it girl.

Po thang sweating with all that extra weight. That’s not good at her age or health.

I’ve been told that I’m morbid & perhaps I am cause I LOVED Eve’s Bayou, Beloved, Bastard Out of Carolina & Precious! I never heard of An american Crime… but I just put it in my netflix queue. I recently saw a movie called the The Gray Man which is based on true story. Its disturbing as well; about a man who kidnapps & little girl (although, her family let her go willingly – to be fair) & kills her.

On Topic: Give Gabby some time….she’s gonna SHUT DOWN all you naysayers….

i agree about this dress – her ams need to be covered more. i am fat too and i never wear anything sleeveless or cap sleeved unless i have a jacket or something over it. also the dress should be just a bit more loose. it’s not good when us fatties wear fitted clothing.

Ppl started treating Monica, Tiny and Toya differently when we had a live chat in here. Maybe Sandra should put the breaks on the Atlanta women and extend a olive branch to Gabby. Gabby says that she does not like urban blogs because we say mean things about her, why not clear up some myths and join us. I am sure Sandra would give her a special “open registration”.

We have all had a bad days, it’s not that serious!!!!!! Best of luck Gabby.

God bless you Gaby, shut out the bad and take in the good….she seems like such a nice GIRL and I just can’t rip on a GIRL. A grown woman yes, but she still seems to be in her GIRL years IMHO.

@ Anna, u talkin’ about Gabby U or Gabby S? I “think” u meant Gabby U who openly despises the blog (which I think may be some leftover highschool agression, but I digress).

I was talkin’ about Gabby S. She’s new to this. She wasn’t an aspiring actress (from what I’ve heard). Unlike Bey who dreamt of it ever since she was in the womb and watched Sparkle/Dreamgirls/read the the Diana Ross handbook of how to keep ALL the shine & make yo fellow band mates fall on the their face (literally) – from front to back. As Gabby puts her team together her image will improve. she gon mess around & be the Oprah on yall.

she looks adorable in the 3rd pic. she may very well be comfortable in her own skin. i tip my hat to queen latifah who never made any drastic changes but look at her doing it.

She looks a mess in those pics, but probably wouldn’t look too bad if her arms were covered and had a different hairstyle.

>:( @whoever is responsible for this entire mess.

Gabby baby slap all friends and family that let you leave the house looking this way. They all was probably like “Oh girl you look wonderful” You got a squad of liars on your team chile!!!!!

And if this is the work of a stylist they need to be fired and black-listed ASAP. They are clearly don’t understand how to enhance someone’s look.

Aww man …. my emoticon didn’t work

@ Sandra- Fish oil makeup?

You had me a “fish-oil makeup” WOOOOOOWWWW

I like the color of the dress. I think her stylist must have a tough time when choosing outfits for her.
