Tyson Beckford

Tyson Beckford wants you to know that he’s not sweet n’ tangy but doesn’t have a problem with those who are covered in the sauce.

Yeah, all those rumors — I never thought you were gay.
Yeah, it’s just one hater that put that on me. But, don’t get me wrong, I work with GLAAD, I work with Gay Men’s Health Crisis—I work with all of that. It’s just I’m a straight man who got a little bit of style so they just say; “He’s gay.”

Whenever Black men support gay people, people get crazy about that. It’s a shame.
Exactly! My cousin is gay and I love him to death. I have more fun hanging out with him then I do my straight friends because he’s got style, he’s got flavor. I can take him shoe shopping with me and my girl, we know we’re getting the best advice. To me, it’s like the best of both worlds. As soon as people see me, “Oh, he’s gay.” I’m like, well, I don’t have that much flavor. I got flavor but I don’t have that much. I love my gay brothers and sisters. [source]

Tyson Giving The Children Hell Tyson + YT Kirk Franklin

Drop down low and sweep the floor with it! Tang Master Tyson gave the children an all you can eat buffet serving of fever at the 6th Annual National Underwear Day event [girls all pause] on Tuesday.

The flared nostrils, the man cleavage . . . I can’t. He looks like he should be working in somebody’s salon applying pre-perm base treatment to women’s hairlines and rinsing out conditioner.

Side-Eye Action x Celebs x Africa Rising

Naomi Campbell and Tyson Beckford, who are currently in Nigeria for the This Day Music and Fashion Festival 2008, took time out of their busy schedule to visit the Island Maternity Hospital in Lagos on Sunday. Here’s what C+D reader Carla had to say about the micro-side eye action going down in the above flick.

I was searching the Net, and came across this hilarious photo of Nay-Nay attempting goodwill in Africa.

Fresh, it’s not Nay-Nay’s hairline (or lack of) that’s transfixed my gaze. Oh no! It’s the proper side-eye that the infant gives Nay-Nay that’s hilarious!

I could only imagine the thoughts that were running through this infant’s mind when he (or she) realized who was holding him (or her).

Either the young’n was clearly informed of Nay-Nay’s BlackBerry throwing antics or thought, “Fuck a health crisis; bitch, better not get any of that yaki in my mouth!”

Preach! It looks like the little lady on the side is in on the action as well. Check out more flicks of Rihanna, Jay-Z and Usher performing at the This Day concert after the jump.

obw1 You Sent It! // Bow Wow & Omarion Hit Howard Universitys Homecoming

Ok so I know it may be a little obvious now but Bow Wow and Omarion are in dire need [DAMN! - - Fresh] of work . I am a student at Howard and today is our homecoming. They were in the parade and they stopped in front of my dorm. Of course everyone knows that Bow Wow is a real live midget, I am 5′3″, and he was shorter than me. They got out, walked inside and would’nt let anybody in even if you lived there! One of the police officers scooped me up because he thought Bow Wow said he knew me, so I went inside with them and do you know that those two fools were asking for a dollar for the vending machine?!?!? Anyway, don’t know if you’ll use them but I’ve attached some pictures. Tyson Beckford should be here later and I’ll send more pics.
