1. Omarosa should think very clearly on doing porn or becoming a lady of the evening

2. Why does AOL insist upon shoving Omarosa down the collective throats of an African American community
which couldn't care less about her crude, ignorant,
a**? If her book ain't selling, then it ain't selling! She needs to cut her losses, realize that
her 15 minutes of fame have more than expired, and
then slither back under her rock!

3. I will never forget how a brotha tried to do her a favor on The Apprentice and she caused him to lose the competition. And for this she achieved fame. To me she is the symbol for why black folks can't come together and reap the benefits of cooperation for success. This woman is UGLY both inside & out. The breast augmentaion surgery took her from being a dog to a dog with big boobs.

4. Yeah where are the black models? They don't want us to keep using the race card, but they keep forcing our hands.

Right to Vogue Italia! And Omarosa ain't worth talkin' or commenting on. Go back from wherever you came Omlette Roach-a! Poof -pow-begone!

Donald at 2:19PM on Jul 12th 2008

5. Wow. I guess folks don't really like her. Never watched Apprentice; but what else does she do for a living?

6. I don't care what color your skin is, nasty and mean is just what it is! She's lucky to have gotten as far as she has. The papparazzi needs to stop giving her that extra "15" minutes of fame - and I use that term loosely!!

Teri at 3:24PM on Jul 12th 2008

7. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERNED:Yes, I agree to the one says poof begone,due to THE APPRENTICE the way she disrespect her King Quamie and the way she back stab him on THE APPRENTICE HE COULD HAVE WON BUT, THE DUCK TRUMP WAS NOT READY FOR A BLACK AFRICAN AMERICAN TO LEAD HIS APPRENTICE.THANK GOD HE DON'T NEED TRUMP,NOR OMAROSA. TOGOD BE THE GLORY FOR THE THINGS HE HAS DONE. Mrs. Linda Polidore-Ballou

8. Loving The Live Newswire.

I don't know if it's just me, but I'm starting to feel like Vogue "All Black Issue" is a dis to black women.

Maybe there was no harm intended by making most of the women post topless (at-least the one's I've see already) but I just don't see the point. It's suppose to be high fashion, but it seems more like semi-porn. I can't speak for anybody else, but when I go to browse through a fashion magazine I really don't expect to open up to see bare chested women that aren't even advertising a nipple ring (at-least).

I guess it's just their desperate way of increasing sales, sure why not use black women??? I don't know, maybe I'm jumping to conclusions.

9. I don't underatand why a so-called Black Voices venue prints negative publications about African-American poliitions like the GREAT Barack Obama and smut by Omarosa. I think this web site is out of touch with mainstream African-Americans. By the way most poles have Senator Obama ahead by duble digits.

Lawrence at 7:29PM on Jul 12th 2008

10. I read your response. I think you out of touch.

Lawrence at 7:32PM on Jul 12th 2008

11. Omarosa should get a LIFE.

Lawrence at 7:33PM on Jul 12th 2008

12. I THINK THAT MOST OF THESE COMMENTS TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OFF OF MY BRAIN....MY QUESTION IS WHEN ARE WE GOING TO STOP ALLOWING OUR SELVES TO BE CONTINUALLY USED AS THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF EXPLOITATION. THIS IS JUST A PRIME EXAMPLE OF OUR NOT HAVING A SENSE OF CULTURAL AND SPIRITUAL FOUNDATION AND OUR BEING SWEPT AWAY BY THE VARIOUS TIDES OF CONFUSION AND INIQUITY...

bigbabaaintnojoke at 8:09PM on Jul 12th 2008

13. Omarosa? What??? You've got to be kidding. At first I thought this was some kind of weird comedy skit, but no, it seems like an attempt to somehow propel this rogue alley cat (and that's my best effort at keeping this polite) to some sort of status of credibility or talent. Sorry, not going to fly here - I mean, I can have an open mind to "fringe" element people and their situations, but Omarosa is doesn't even rate that. AOL - what ARE you thinking?

charles at 8:11PM on Jul 12th 2008

14. It is very disappointing to see so much of Omarosa in the media. She is a significant disgrace to the black race and a very poor role model to our youth, women and anyone of color aspiring for great things. By promoting her, we are saying it is okay for educated people to treat others any way they like to get where they want in life. Bottom line Omarosa definitely has her's coming to her. God don't like ugly. Omarosa has proven over and over again that she is very ugly on the inside, which makes it difficult to admire her outside qualities. AOL should focus more on portraying our positive black role models and women of color, like Queen Latifah, Mary J. Blige, Oprah Winfrey, Maya Angelo, Angela Bassett, just to name a few.

Stacy at 11:00PM on Jul 12th 2008

15. Omarosa is a liar, fake, psychologically needy person who is filled up with her own "stuff" its sad. She is the epitome of a washed up two faced sister (and I use the term mildly with her)!
"Get together" she was a tyrant on the apprentice and her true ugly personality came to light in that she is narcissitically needy, has NOTHING to back up her loud frigging mouth and they treated her appropriately on the last apprentice as the lackluster embarrassment she is!
