Thicksational Mogul Oprah has decided to dedicated her network Saturdays to thicksational women.

Let me give you a recap…

Miss Robbie and her family start off the evening and after watching the show you will be VERY hungry. One hour of fried chicken, yams, mac & cheese and drama always makes a good show. Miss Robbie is a former backup singer for Ike and Tina Turner and went from barely making it to becoming a self made millionaire. Her spoiled son and nephew drive her crazy while she is trying to finish her 3rd restaurant in St. Louis. I think this a show that anyone can appreciate or at least admire the food.

Super model, Beverly Johnson decides to open up her home to her estrange daughter and thicksational model Anansa Sims. From the beginning of the show I was very puzzled, I mean the vibe that Anansa was giving her mother on the TV screen was just off. I didn’t understand it and definitely didn’t understand what was her purpose of moving in if she didn’t want to be bothered by her. Beverly does seem to be overbearing, however most children know how to handle their parent’s personality after so long but Anansa after one night couldn’t take it. Later in the show both women explain the reason why there is tension between the two which I feel will definitely be a healing show (I hope). This show can heal people who might be going through the same issues with their parents.

I like Niecy Nash. I think she is funny in her own corky way. However this show is too much. Why is it too much? IT’S TOO SCRIPTED! Yes all reality shows are scripted however I don’t want it to be so obvious and cheesy. The show starts off with Niecy and her man wanting to go skating with her kids. The kids decided they don’t want to go and give the excuse that God is calling them. This show almost seems like she is preparing her kids AND HER MOM for the acting world. This reality show is set up like a pilot and Niecy is hoping to get a sitcom after this. I am not really feeling the show so far but maybe it will grow on me.

Check out Niecy’s performance on Dancing With The Stars last night. She dedicated her performance to the thickettes!

What did you think? Clap or Slap?

The Grammys aired yesterday and in my opinion the award show was……ok.

MJ’s kids came on stage to accept their father’s award.

I truly admire their strength and I know MJ is proud.

The MJ tribute was ok and once again another award show that gave an average tribute to the greatest entertainer. I need a tribute that’s going to make me moonwalk, and scream SHAMONE and HE HE!

BTW: According to MJ’s little brother Randy Jackson, the Jackson Family was not invited to the Grammys. WTH!

Clive Davis had his Grammy party and you know our thickette Jennifer performed.

I think the dress is cute but for some reason I was NOT feeling her hair…especially those bangs.

Now on to the red carpet…………

I love this dress! I personally would have taken off the cocktail waitress apron but she still looks thicksational.

Very chic! Thicksational claps to you Jen.

This is why children are dreaming to become reality show stars………

Look at the perks they get! Who knew being on a reality show could get you on the red carpet……smh.

My dear thickette Niecy……………..The dress was beautiful until you get to the bottom.

It looks like Gucci took the top half and the old lady down the street took care of the bottom.

The People’s Choice Awards took place last night and all of our thickettes were simply THICKSATIONAL!

Queen Latifah

I love this white dress! I was impressed with every outfit she had on!

Beautiful!

The Queen with my man LL! Why does he tease us with that tongue and those lips?!

I love how this dress fits her. Thicksational A++++++++

Amber Riley

The dress was cute but I wish she had better accessories. I don’t really like the shoes. Thicksational B-!

Niecy Nash

I could not find a better picture of Niecy but her outfit was pretty. So I’ll give her a Thicksational B!

 Niecy Nash had her 39th Birthday party in Atlanta last week.

Niecy you are thicksational but you know you are NOT 39!

Nice cake

Now that’s what I’m talking about! I need men like that to massage me!

Two of our favorite housewives showed up looking cute.

And you know Lisa’s husband wasn’t too far behind. Gotta admit they are a cute couple.

Essence Magazine names their top fashionable thickettes and here they are in no particular order.

Oprah Winfrey

The media mogul’s weight has fluctuated more times than we can count over the past two decades, but through it all she has always remained camera-ready. Her sophisticated image is definitely part of her star appeal.

Angie Stone

A true soul singer to the core, Angie keeps it real and we adore her for it. We love how this silky cream top plays up her beautiful mocha skin.

Jennifer Hudson

The Chi-town powerhouse took the entertainment world by storm after her Oscar-winning performance in “Dreamgirls” in 2006. Even fashion icon Andre Leon Talley has lent his stylish hand to the voluptuous beauty. In October 2008, Hudson revealed to ESSENCE, “I used to hate going to stores, trying on clothes. Girl, now I love me some clothes!”

Chrisette Michele

After providing sweet vocals for hip-hop royalty like Nas and Jay-Z, Michele has proven she will make her mark on the R&B world. The Long Island, New York, native told ESSENCE in October, “I need to flatter my hourglass shape. On curvy girls, the clothes need to fit.”

Jazmine Sullivan

This brickhouse from Philly might be a newbie on the music scene, but she has an unforgettable voice and a shapely silhouette to match. “I’m not a size 0,” she says in the October issue of ESSENCE, “I celebrate my curves, and I think that makes everyone else all right with them too.”

Jordin Sparks

This “American Idol” alum, chart-topping vocalist and burgeoning model keeps her look picture-perfect in body-conscious fashions.

Mo’Nique

An ESSENCE fave, this fly Baltimore native has graced our cover five times and counting. Her unapologetic openness about her weight (in 2004 she penned the hilarious “Skinny Women Are Evil”) has made her an inspiration to women who once felt pressured to be a size 2.

Niecy Nash

She’s one of our favorite reasons for watching the Style channel, as the frank but loving host of “Clean House.” Her signature flower in the hair makes her fashion sense undeniably fly.

 Queen Latifah

Proving that ladies are always first, this New Jersey-bred raptress-turned-actress always turns it out on the red carpet. In 2006, the Grammy winner collaborated with beauty giant CoverGirl to launch the Queen collection of cosmetics, providing more makeup options for women of color.

 Raven-Symone

We’ve been in love with this actress-turned-entrepreneur ever since she first captured our hearts as the precocious toddler on “The Cosby Show.” Unlike some other young women her age, she always keeps it classy on the red carpet.

 Sherri Shepherd

She keeps TV audiences chuckling on two Emmy-winning shows–chatting it up on “The View” or clowning on the hit sitcom “30 Rock.” Yet her body-conscious style is no laughing matter.

Toccara

“America’s Next Top Model” was never the same after Toccara Jones made her debut on the show. The Ohio native might not have won the reality series that season, but she has made tremendous strides for plus-size models and even appeared in the now-infamous all-Black Vogue Italia earlier this year.

Jill Scott

Quickly becoming a true renaissance woman, Scott conquered music, then acting, and earlier this year she added fashion designer to her résumé. The Grammy winner collaborated with retailer Ashley Stewart to launch the Butterfly Bra, an undergarment specifically created for top-heavy women.

ALSO FOR THE THICKETTES WHO THINK THERE AREN’T ANY MEN OUT THERE WHO LOVE THICKSATIONAL WOMEN. HMMMMM YOU BETTER THINK AGAIN! ESSENCE INTERVIEWED SOME MEN AND THIS IS WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT US.

 ”If you look good, you look good.  If Jennifer Hudson walked by right now, I would be all over her. I’ve met women who are plus-size, and they are fine just because of the way they carry themselves.”

-Khalid S., 27, IT consultant

“I like ladies who are thick, shapely, well-endowed-all of that. I cannot see myself dating a woman who’s small and skinny, shaped like the Eurocentric model. Plus-size women are a visual aesthetic.”

-Khari S., 41, ? school administrator

“Thicker ladies are aware of their size and, depending on their age, have learned to embrace it. They also know what they want. Being a slim guy, I’ve found that bigger women like skinny men.”

-Chris C., 29, songwriter

“Big girls are often the aggressor, quick to cater to a man’s needs, and willing? to provide things that other girls may frown upon.”

-Calvin G., 32, legal assistant

“What I find different about plus-size ladies is how sexy, soulful and sensuous they are, like Mo’Nique or Jill Scott. When I’ve dated heavier women, they have been truly understanding, open-minded, and love to dance and do whatever it takes to maintain a healthy relationship with minimal drama.”

-Erik M., 42, actor

Uh Huh! Check out the page because some of the brothas who gave their opinions are FINE! Thickettes its our time!

NIECY HAS A NEW SHOW COMING OUT THIS FALL CALLED “DO NOT DISTURB”.

HERE’S A LITTLE INFO ABOUT THE SHOW

DO NOT DISTURB (working title) is a hilarious workplace comedy set at one of New York City’s hottest and hippest hotels: The Inn. Named one of the Big Apple’s “10 Best Places to Stay,” The Inn is just that – the “in” place to be, with its chic decor, stylish staff and celebrity clientele. Behind the scenes, however, the upstairs/downstairs dynamic tells quite a different story.

The hotel’s top-notch reputation and sophisticated look is due in large part to NEAL (Jerry O’Connell, “Crossing Jordan”) – at least in his opinion. Although The Inn’s charismatic owner R.J. (guest star Robert Wagner) takes all the credit, Neal is the egotistical, hyper-stylish, detail-oriented general manager who will do whatever it takes to keep the hotel and its employees up to his standards.

RHONDA (Niecy Nash, “Reno 911!”) is the head of Human Resources who also keeps Neal’s demands in check. She’s brash, fabulous and brutally honest and runs the HR department from her bullpen downstairs with a set of rules that are all her own. Rhonda does her best to keep the back of the house in line and the front of the house out of trouble. (Source: Fox)
