Divas Don't Fight

The newest show on the horizon is R&B Divas. Faith Evans gets to play the Shaunie O'Neal since she is the best known in the group. She will always be known as Biggie's wife. Which will keep her name out there. She is like the first lady of hip hop. I thought it was a idea put together by Faith Evans. But as it turns out. It was a joint venture between her and Nicci Gilbert. Nicci comes across as having an unappreciative attitude. When the truth is she is half of the wheel. Unlike the other women on the show. Reviving her musical career is not on her radar.She is truly a diva.

Then you have KeKe Wyatt. Who I hope is just putting on a show for the camera. She couldn't possibly still be that scarred by her previous marriage. How did her and her husband/manager Michael meet? She put it aside long enough to have three more children. But she hasn't recorded another hit since "My first Love". This show will reopen some doors for her. Once people discover she can really sing. Her biggest record was a remake. She is looking for that one original hit. To make her relevant again,

My personal favorite diva is Syleena Johnson. Her career has took a dive in recent years. It is evident in her appearance. You can see it in her skin and wardrobe. She had a nice house temporarily, but it was a rental. It wasn't even her furniture.  She moved with a van in the rain. It was just her assistant and some friends. Her husband wasn't even there. She is already looking better than she did in the first episode. It wasn't too long ago that she was the prettiest little, thick, chocolate thing on the music scene. She has never been as big as some of the other women. But she is  like a sponge around Big Jim and Daniel Moore. I hope she plays her cards right. She has the most to gain from this show. I think her family is going to add some thrills also. Sylecia and Sylete are both engaging. They seem like two divas that don't sing.

Monifah might be the sleeper on the show. I was surprised she could sing as well as she does. Actually she is one of the better voices in the group. Her personal life is her biggest drawback. Everybody isn't feeling the lesbian storyline. I don't know who cries more,her or KeKe Wyatt. She hasn't made a record in thirteen years. She just got off drugs recently. She is still very vulnerable. She has already been working for Nicci in her play "Caberet Kittens". That's how a lot of singers are making their living these days. Monifah made a bold move coming out. I don't know about her career,but it's good for the show.

Mona Scott Young or Shaunie O'Neal had nothing to do with this show. We might not see any fist fights and jumping over tables. The strongest person on this show is Michael. Divas don't fight. Not with their hands. They use their mouth. If it comes to blows. Someone else does it for them.
