This statement really puzzled me...."Hi, I'm Toya. Some of yall might know me as Lil Waynes ex-wife" or "Everything yall hear in the tabloids about me ain't all true." something like that!

Ummmm. Most of us haven't heard of Toya until now. I didn't know she was Lil Wayne's ex and I have never heard a tabloid story of any kind about her. Honestly I don't get the relevence of this show. It makes sense that Tiny is making a lil extra cash while T.I. is gone. But as for the show....my biggest question is...Why do we care? I mean this with all sincerity. What are they doing that will benefit the viewers even a little? Entertainment maybe? But really....is it that entertaining?

Come on BET... we deserve something a bit more stimulating. Obama is president now!

Just a few thoughts on the topic...

Little Brother calls it BLACK EMBARASSMENT TELEVISION...and yes...It's a bit wierd. Now the last episode had me choked up where she took him to jail...then I thought...PAUSE...how many women take a private plane and a limo to take thier men to jail....not feeling bad at all for them when it comes to choices. in some ways they remind me of me and my best friend, she was raised around and has her family's full support...while mine is ...um yeah...(cool I get to be Toya!!)

I am guilty of watching it and most other reality shows, I think as long as we watch them for ENTERTAINMENT and not a blueprint to life, we will be oooottaaayyy....one of my guilty pleasures...reality tv !
