Ne-Yo Tells Aspiring Singer “You Need To Lose Weight”
I spotted this on Necole Bitchie’s site and it caught my attention because the headline kinda hinted that all hell was about to break lose, but it didn’t. In the video you will find Ne-Yo in conversation with an aspiring singer, and he keeps it 100! No bullshit, no sugarcoating, simply;
You might need to lose some pounds. It depends on the type of music you want to do. If you want to go the Jill Scott route do what you want to do because there is freedom in that lane, but if you want to stand on the same stage as Beyonce, if you haven’t won an Oscar first, it isn’t gonna happen. And by that I mean Jennifer Hudson. Jennifer Hudson is a big girl. She won an Oscar and then she went and stood on the same stage as Beyonce.
Rarely do you find an artist being real on camera, and I respect Ne-Yo for that, and he isn’t saying anything wrong! Homegirl can actually sing, and judging from her acapella singing in this video I would listen to her music.
What do you think of what Ne-Yo has to say in this video?
