Cherish the moments now before they become a memory
I remember when I was a kid, my mom always told me “Time waits for no one, you have to learn to value every minutes you have before they’re gone.” I only listened but it was like a lemon tree to me, I was like “okay mom but I have plenty of time.” and I was always thinking to myself “I can’t wait to grow up…to be an adult, to have house and money of my own.”
Over 30-years old now, still want to live the youth, still want to be the kid. Life just hit different throughout the stages.
Life is like a circle with different stages. When we complete the circle, we’re back to the start.
Okay… So things have been blowing up on a certain performing artist, key phrase here – “PERFORMING ARTIST”. One of the members of BLACKPINK, Lalisa, is being blasted over a particular hairstyle she has in her ad promoting her new single – “MONEY”.
What’s my overall take on it? It is JUST F*CKING HAIR! Get over yourselves everybody. It’s HAIR! Who gives a shit? Don’t pull the “cultural appropriation” bullsh!t. How is it affecting you, overall? It is not. It’s just because it may hurt someone’s feelings? Get off your high horses “Karen’s” out there.
As he said towards the end, “…Ya’ll finding shit to complain about because every body else is complaining.”
Also, she’s a performing artist. She performs and is an artist. Get it through your thick skulls everyone. They’re going to be dressing and styling however they like because that is what they do as an performer and as an artist! Oh my gosh, “How You Like That?” With the pun intended.
Let’s see what others are saying about this in the Twitterverse…
At some point, y’all got to realize that she makes her OWN choices. The company does not control their hairstyle. If you got a problem, take that to her. Not everybody else. pic.twitter.com/irXs2bi669
The ist thing I thought is lisa getting hated again for this. I want to know what she thinks about it she had a pic w her dad when she was little w thai braids. She grew up w it. Some1 PLEASE ask her about it on her next online fan sign I beg you! & if she knows about CA! pic.twitter.com/8T1SfGtlkg
What a sad world we are living in this day and age. Seriously, though why ya’ll bitchin’ and complainin’? Just because she’s becoming more popular around the world along with the rest of the members of BLACKPINK, people gotta complain about something that’s not even remotely offensive?
How about this… quite a bit of times people go into a Vietnamese restaurant or any Asian restaurant in general and ask for a fork as their utensil of choice to eat the food versus using chopsticks. Do you see the servers there or the owner be offended by that notion because the patrons choose to use a fork to eat their food rather than a chopstick? Uh… no. They give you the fork and let you eat. They’re literally happy to see customers enjoying their food, regardless of how it is eaten.
So then… braids are only for black people…? Is that your take on it (those “Karens” out there in this ridiculous world we live in now)? Why the fluff do you care how someone’s hair style is or is not? It’s not on your head. It’s their choice to have whatever the fluff hair they want to have. How does one’s style affect your own ability to live your life? It DOES NOT.
Man people got to freaking get a life and be more intelligent.
I love BLACKPINK and their music, it is really good and their rhythm is amazing. If they ever stumble upon this blog, I shall leave a message of encouragement for them as a whole… Please continue to make music because all of you are amazing and I hope you all get to perform, again, all over the world (in another world tour). I hope you come back to the USA and perform because it’d be great to see your concert.
I shall end this blog with a portion of wise lyrics from Weezer – “Pork and Beans”:
“…Everyone likes to dance to a happy song With a catchy chorus and beat so they can sing along…
…I’ma do the things that I wanna do I ain’t got a thing to prove to you I’ll eat my candy with the pork and beans Excuse my manners if I make a scene I ain’t gonna wear the clothes that you like I’m fine and dandy with the me inside One look in the mirror and I’m tickled pink I don’t give a hoot about what you think…”
