Last night on ‘Braxton Family Values,’ the sisters meet with their therapist Dr. Sherry to discuss their emotional conflicts with each other. Toni Braxton irked her sister Traci’s Soul by suggesting that Traci lose “20 to 30 lbs now. And stop thinking that her tummy sticking out like that is hot, ’cause it’s not.”
Toni added: “You’re too cute of a girl not to care about… to let herself go like that.” Toni also said Traci’s tummy wasn’t always like that “so that lets me think she’s comfortable.”
The nerve of Toni to decide when another woman is comfortable with her body when Toni is sooo uncomfortable in her own skin!
Toni was extremely insensitive to suggest that her sister Traci lose weight to fit Toni’s jacked up standard of beauty. Toni, with 20 lbs of weave on her head and a face that is surgically altered beyond recognition, is not so perfect herself! Isn’t it funny that people who think they are so perfect always see their flaws in others but not in themselves?
Clearly, Traci is happy and comfortable with her weight — which upsets her sisters who hate the fact that Traci accepts her beauty. Traci probably has no problems keeping a man, unlike her thin sisters who think they’re so perfect.
I realize that this is just a reality show, but Toni irked me with that comment. I’m shocked that Towanda (the more level headed sister) didn’t speak up for Traci. And what kind of therapist is Dr. Sherry to day Toni was “just being honest”?
Dr. Sherry should have turned that mirror back toward Toni so she could see the hurt in herself. Because only hurt people hurt others.
