Why All the Hate?

Lisa reacts to the negative comments her cast mates made about her clothing line, Closet Freak.

September 11, 2009

 

Wow, what was this episode? "Let's all hate on Lisa?"

I was not shocked but very disappointed by the comments that were made.

Kim? Who cares what she thinks?

Dwight? I mean really. You stated that you came to support a friend. If you called that support, I'd much rather you take that plane where ever you said you were going. I'm open to constructive criticism, but that was neither the time nor the place. It was not classy -  it was uncouth and it was just dead wrong.

Sheree? Are you kidding me? Copy cat? What are we in ... grade school? I can't copy what you haven't done sweetheart. You forget I had a baby clothing line before you thought about having one. Last year we met and I tried to give you pointers on how to proceed with your line. I guess you forgot about that meeting.

Overall, I'm glad that with the efforts of my husband, myself and my wonderful team we were able to pull of a great show. There was so much you didn't see. We had performances by Kitty's Litter, Q from 112 and J Holiday. My show was not only a viewing of what's to come, but it was also a production that provided entertainment for my guests. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I am pleased with the outcome and the efforts of everyone involved. I don't think out of the box, I believe that there is no box! There is no set template for being original. Do things your way! As I always do.

Until next week,
Best,
Lisa

Rise above it Lisa. You are too beautiful to deal with this kind of nonsense.

lisa,i can't wait for the new season.i hope that u are not leaving the show it won't be the same,and as far as te line it is great.u will do good things and that husband of your's is a keeper.i love the show that we got to meet your family they are a perfect example for the rest of us.luv to u sista.

I am happy for your success, and your family it send so much positive message to other families, again thank you for being you . Many of us can't wait to see you this season. You all keep doing what you are doing Much thanks; However your friend Nene is a another picture.

tell her thanks for divorcing Greg i speak for many many women. we are just waiting for (just waiting for the show for the love of
gregg. We spent the day high fiving at work for Nene freeing that man from her petty ways, there will a line wrap around a city to become the lady of his life. no more search grave yard for a man, as you know they say all good men are married or dead.

Your clothing line is good and I think it makes better sense to sell clothes that people will wear often.I think it was smart of you and your husband to move into the other house. You and your husband make sound decisions and I hope it rubs-off on the other houeswifes.the others are flamboyant which a typical trait when your not use to materials,like sheree.

i just want to say that i love your clothing line and have been trying to find when and where they will be going on sale? especially the white jumpsuit with the red floral print...veryyy cute!!! me and my boyfriend love you and think you the best housewife lol!!! keep doing your thing mama! =)

Lisa
You are a very classy lady. The devotion you have for your family speaks highly of you. You are a humble and caring person; who works extremely hard to have all the good things in life; and there’s nothing wrong with that… You should be very proud of yourself for your success and striving to the top. God is always with you, guiding and protecting you because you are a very good person.

LISA, i love you on the show and let them haterz hate i love your clothing line closet freak and i cant wait until its in stores...your clothing line is so classy and i like it better than sheree's no offense....you just have a classy taste and i like that and such a amazing women good luck on making the baby hope 2 see you in movies and on tv again....i am a fan of yours and hope 2 see more of you in the future

LISA, LISA, Girl i just love you soooo much because you and Kandi are the most 2 classiest women on the show, you didnt get into a whole lot of mess. You handled your business as a woman should. Please do a reality TV show for us I want to continue to follow you. PS I Love Nene too but she was sometimes over the top (lol). Please consider another Reality show with YOU, Kandi, and Nene. Please

Lisa you have such a big heart. You keep it real with people and you seem very genuine and honest. You know what all that non-sense is called "JEALOUSY" :) Keep doing your thang, and good luck with Closet Freak and everything else you and your husband will Accomplish:)

Lisa u r so fly! I love your style, and without you there would be no show! ou should have went to kand's birthday party forget kim, and her wig! Your fasion line was good. Why are they hateing on you like that. Them some some 2 faced heffers! lol Do you

Lisa you are doing your thing, congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone should be familiar with Lisa's fashion stylist Tracy Sipp. Well he has a new handbag collection, they are hot. I had a chance to see them at his debut.Google him.

Lisa, I think that your fashion show was amazing. I blog on NeNe’s blog, that you have an amazing flavor of class and advocate an optimistic stance. You are a multi-task individual that creates perfection while making your dreams realities. You and your husband have accomplished varies successful projects and this spin-off may be a little intimidated to others. Therefore, do not allow the haters to subject you to foolishness. If you allow them, they would drag you out of your comfort zone and provoke you to change characters. Excuse yourself from the ruined cast member’s chaos and remain optimistic.

I love the fact that you are doing your own thing and not relying on others. Take the help if needed and continue to stay grounded. I loved you line and know that it is only going to get better. At least yours went on the day it was suppose to and actually had clothing there. Ops. Anyway, you are a wonderful person that is keeping it real. Stay true to yourself and remember those that can't do what yo do just talk trash to make themselves feel better.
Best of luck in all that you do.

Hi Lisa,

Love the show! I think you are "Real" with everyone. It is amazing to me how people can turn on a dime when they feel threatened. Hang in there & take care.

LISA WU WU GIRL, DO YOU! All I have to say is continue to follow your motto on your introduction of the show "if it don't make me money, I don't do it". You are down to earth, simple(in a tasteful way) and energetic. I love the support system that you and Ed have, it's a beautiful thing! Good Luck~Please continue to support Kandi through this tragic time.

Keep on keeping on, Lisa!!

Don't let the haters get you down!! You got it going on.

Maggie

Lisa, you have such a big heart, You like NeNe, can weed out the people who aren't being real about friendships. I like that you keep your life interesting with your own goals as a business person hope you can share that with others. I hope next season you will get more air time in you hidden business talents.
Would love to see how you network.

Thanks for keeping it real..

Lisa, your show was amazing! The clothes are a reflection of you-- beautiful, classy, and elegant. Anyone who was critical of your clothing line is just jealous! You are the classiest, most beautiful woman, inside and out, on the show and you continue to be just that! The others can't even compare to you in any way. I love your stlye, and the way you always maintain your composure in any situation.

U keep things real Lisa, your down to earth and have a loving relationship...you got your clothing line done(still waiting Sheree)you kow she didn't go on purpose!!! Stay real!

hey Lisa, I loved the show and the fashion show, but some of the clothing didn't look completed. I think it will get better just keep being you.

I luv lisa,keep doin ur thang girl!!!

LISA, YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND ARE GREAT!! IT SEEMS LIKE YALL HAVE A GREAT OPEN RELATIONSHIP. I AM GETTING MARRIED NEXT YEAR AND I HOPE WE CAN BE AS HAPPY AS YOU BOTH SEEM!!

LOVE YA

I like Lisa because she is down to earth, and she doesn't think that she is better than everyone else! I would like to know where I can find her clothing line! Will she be selling T-shirts?

LISA just download Jill Scott Hater and workout to lol .... Im mean really its so grade school how can you hate or copy something she hasnt done .... my husband owns a clothing line here in DETROIT and he has never done a showing or release party without CLOTHES ..... please ray ray get it together honey .... it just ashame that we ass a black community cant back each there success we must down grade each other but we are the first to by a desinger who's name you cant even say right or spell .... they way i see it is if you got a friend like that what the hell you need a enemies for .... do you me and my husband loved the line and if your ever in the D come by the store and check us out

How many orders did you take for your clothing line? The best way to silence the critics is tell your readers where they can go to buy your clothes.

hey lisa, i noticed on the show how u prayed, while u and nene went to sheree new house party,but my question is; why dont u show love to kim, even though she does not respond or care? remember love conquers all , keep it real, because with the way u prayed i can tell u have a relationship with God, give him the glory thanks

Your fashion show was awesome, I think you would really benefit by making Closet Freak, a lingrie collection! Women love sexy night wear! We can lay off of Victoria and her Secret. LOL!

Lisa,

Don't let them hate. What can Sheree talk if she did a fashion show with no fashion!! Congratz on your new line. I wish you the best!

lisa I like you so much! Last year when I heard your if it doesn't make money I don't do it! I rolled my eyes. I know they make you say a lot of things. I have watched you and you have won this gay mans heart. I realy loved nene last year but she is just not herself this year and is gaurded and acting! wow! that ruined her. I won't even waste my breath on sheree and Kim. keep being yourself girl because you are genuin and really a class act. not to mention your man......oooohhhh girl have one for me because he is GORGOUS with a big G
Peace my friend

I think you are the type of business person who jumps into something, hoping to make a lot of cash, and then you're done. You are into too many things to get any of them right. You are no more a "designer" than Sheree, and you are both getting someone else to do everything for you, and then you act like you created it. I haven't like you since you attacked Kim at the reunion. You need to own up to your part in the whole scene, you know you told Sheree about the song, knowing she would tell Kim, but you deny it because you want everyone to perceive you as the good girl. You are anything but.

I really didn't like the clothes that I saw but I admire your energy and ability to follow through with your goals. You get a lot done. No matter what you do, there will always be haters. It is a difference between people criticizing you and hating on you. Sheree is a hater. Dwight, I think, was offering constructive criticism. Sheree is upset that you trumped her. Continue to be encouraged. Good luck with everything. What God has for you, it IS for you.

Hey Lisa you are the realist housewife. Your my favorite I wish you much success. Your a real go getter, you inspire me.

Lisa
i think u did a great job for ur first clothing line show! the clothes were fun and on the edge! just like u girl!
anyway sheree said that when she arrived at ur show (LATE)there were people there with t-shirts and hats and baggie pants and she thought that was tacky! HELLO did she NOT notice what she was wearing?! how tacky of HER! keep up the good work u rock!

Lisa, your clothing line was great! The real test is if it sells, but I know I loved it, and I’d buy it. Since I am terribly picky, that says a lot. I think it will be a huge hit. As for what anyone else is saying, well, in the end, its what makes money that counts, not his or her opinions...which, BTW, are terribly WRONG! They are just being snotty little bitches that need go grow up and get a REAL life! One in particular hates you because you did what she is only able to talk about doing. She has no talent or brains and is just a mean spirited, nasty looser. “SHE” isn’t going to amount to SH*T. Don’t pay any attention to her, she’s not worth your time and effort. You keep on doing what you are doing and stay proud of it! You and Kandi are the reasons I watch. Take her advice and avoid being caught up in the drama. Concentrate on your success and ignore anyone who tries to tear you down! Let your success be its own reward, after all, living well is truly the BEST revenge! Best of luck on having a baby! May you all be healthy and happy

Lisa.... Keep doing your thing. I commend you on doing a clothing line that instead of jacking the prices up to the point that only the wealthy could experience, you made it so that EVERYBODY could afford your clothing. I liked looking at your clothing line on the episode...kudos because you did a great job.

I LOVE YOU LISA YOU PLAY NO GAMES YOU STAY OUT THE MESS YOU ARE THE BEST. BUT NENE IS MY FAVORITE TO ME YOU KEEP HER GROUNDED YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN I LOVE YOU GUYS.I WISH YOU THE BEST.

LISA....I LOVE THAT YOU KEEP IT REAL. I MUST SAY YOU ARE THE DEFINITION OF A SUPERWOMAN & THE PASSION YOU PUT INTO EVERYTHING EMANATES. THE DEVOTION YOU & ED SHARE IS EXTRAORDINARY & I HOPE LONG AFTER THE CAMERA'S STOP ROLLING YOU'LL STILL HAVE THAT DRIVING FORCE.
PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOUR CLOSET FREAK LINE WILL INCLUDE SOME SEXY LINGERIE. DRESS US FROM HEAD TO TOE !!

YOU & KANDI ARE MY FAVORITES!!!!

Lisa, I love you, NeNe and Kandi, however, I really wished they would make that Kim, go away!!

Lisa,

Even though your "Closet Freak" line was great, Dwight did have valid points however, his timing was completely off. He should have showed tack and offered his advice the following day. You are a true business woman, your aggressive energy and professionalism will take you far as it already has. I wish you and wonderful family well.

LISA I LOVE U CLOTHING LINE...PEOPLE IS ALWAYS GOONA HATE LIKE SHREE' AND I LIKE UR CLOTHES BETTER THEN HER'S ANY DAY JUST KEEP DOIN WHAT U DO...KEEP UR HEAD UP...

MUCH LOVE,JHON'TAE

There will always be haters...I don't care what it is...and there will always be the ones that say they did it first...it doesn't matter who did it first..the only thing that matters is who did it best and was most original...lastly, when i watched this episode i kinda thought that was j holiday...u just confirmed..i bet your show was amazing...

much love,
elmyra

Hi, Lisa,

I loved your fashion show. It really is for young people, right? You are one of my favorites. Do not even hear what envious people needs to make comments about your show. Ignore them. You are talented. Take care.

I thought your clothing line was great, i could careless if the hem wasn't finished. Girl, do your thang!

Lisa you are the bomb..Let yo haters be your motivators god bless.....keep yo clothing line going...

Lisa your fashion show was great the concept was right on the money. I loved the closet setup on stage. Although, I think you are being hard on Dwight. He is old school fashion and knows the game. He just let you know off the top what he noticed and you should, as a business woman new to the game take notes and not offense. For the rest of the haters let them all hate in your shadows. They have been hating since session one and will continue. Let your haters be your stepping stool to the top.

Lisa I really liked your clothes and the fashion show. I see u comment on what everyone had to except for NENE. She talked about u 2. Keep up the good work.

Hey Lisa Baby! I just love yr personality, you are a strong woman. I just keen the way U interact with yr Hussy. Congratulations! he's a fine man & seems to have a kind/soft heart. Keep him forever! Anyway U do have him under wraps, U have everything under control. About the other girls; Beware of Sheree, she's green with envy over everything & even nothing. Don't miss her friendship. Nene is real, you will excell if U team up with her.. As for Kim, she's toothless, her karma is controversy. Kandi, just sit & watch what she brings on board. BLESSINGS.

Lisa both me AND hubby love you.....although im sure for different reasons.Congrats on the Closet Freak fashion show. I loved the clothes and they far out shawdowed He by Sheree's sketches.Your clothes were vibrant and fun.You are driven and it serves as a great inspiration to young women.You wear many hats and you wear them well.Just one thing.....HAVE THAT BABY ALREADY.You and hubby are soooo cute as a couple and your sons are adorable.Lets get that girl!!!!!
