R&B Divas LA (Divas have egos too?)

So episode 2...

It seems the Diva's are coming into this season with some hesitation on everyone's part.  After all last season clearly put the girls to the test.  With two new girls replacing two former girls, could the shad simmer down? Or will it escalate all together?

Lil Mo has opened up about her relationship with her ex husband and decided to share on this episode.  She is going through a divorce and it is not only affecting her, but her children as well.  Mo has never been shy about expressing her self.  (FOLLOW HER ON INSTAGRAM  @TheLilMoShow  TO BE ENTERTAINED!!!!) Ok back to it.  So when it came to her discussing it with her young children I was kind of puzzled at why they were all afraid to communicate with each other on the matter.  Kids usually keep quiet because they are confused and don't understand what is goin on.   Mo's kids, however, seem to be aware and concerned.  They also are showing that they are very protective of their mother, which most children are.  It is always good when the reality show can show real things and portray them in a positive light.  I am glad Mo allows her children to be a part of the show for that reason!

Claudette seems to have let her guard down a little more this season.  She is stepping up and trying to get some things going for herself and the girls as well.  She still seems to be on edge tho because she is in fear of anything happening like it did last season.  EVERYONE WHO WATCHED SEASON 1 knows what I am talking about.  But it is good to see her coming out of her shell!

Chante Chante Chante

Giiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrlllllllllllllllllllllllllll I'm feeling a lil shady moment coming from Ms Chante Moore yall!  She of all people should know what it feels like to be played and taken advantage of my one of the Divas!  Wouldn't it have been a lot smarter of her to evaluate her approach to inviting the women to sing on her song than to just invite them to the study without a full understanding of what was going on.  Sounds like trickery to me.  Tsk tsk tsk.  Chante dissappointed me this episode.  What about you guys??  

I think that the ladies were right for feeling thrown off by what was going on in the studio.  I also think that they should not have to sing background at this point in their careers.  BUT I do think they should make exceptions when it has something to do with a project for a Diva on the show.  They are all supposed to be coming together to help each other out.  At least that was my understanding of this entire series.

Chante's whole approach was just off which made for an unnecessary awkward situation.  The Diva's were biting their tongues and borderline speaking up.  Then there were their childish moments when they wouldn't even make eye contact with Chante after recording their parts of the song.  They added to the awkwardness by being childish which forced Chante to end the session early.

It's funny to me how the ladies on these shows need the shows to help their careers, but when it comes down to it they all seem to have the biggest egos in the world.  

Whatever the case I think these are all some of the most talented women in the industry who should stick together and continue to build each other up.  If you are in it for the drama and the ratings then your career and your gift will suffer.  I wish that these ladies would use these platforms wisely and grow!!! Grow together so that R&B music will continue to grasp us and keep us listening.  We want that good music.  The music that comes from the SOUL.  So Divas think about that when you join these shows, but don't forget to keep us entertained *wink*  

I appreciate everyone for taking the time out to read and if you would like to discuss this topic further OF COURSE YOU CAN COMMENT!  Until later ...
