The Journey AKA "The Struggle"

       I guess you all are reading this post and shocked that I have posted something. Most of you will probably roll your eyes, exit off, or just skim through it. BUT It has been FOREVER since the last time I got on this website and I feel AWFUL about it. I guess this is the time in my life where I am... lets just say "figuring things out." I turned 20, finally got my license, been across two jobs to support my weave and shopping addiction, been to South Beach and back, BLAH it has been a lot. But that is NOT an excuse to push aside something that I love. 

     I will say that while I have been on this hiatus I have not been sitting on my butt. You are looking at a future business owner. And this just not any business, no no my friends, it is MY business. I have been through countless sleepless nights because my motors are constantly going because I am so excited! [Side Bar: Zzzquil is my new bestie]

   I have decided to take ONE semester off from school to "figure things out" and to also get my business going. July 7, 2013  [eeeekkkkk so close] is when I will launch my business and open the doors. I will also be taking my talents to South Beach August 2013! With the support of my parents and the rest of my family and friends, they agree that this is a great thing that I am doing. So with that being said, I want to share my journey with EVERYONE! 

   I want everyone to see the ups and downs to my journey to fulfill my dream. Time and time again you hear about success stories of people who went through something and the "made it." But I want you all to see the good, the bad, and the gawd awful. There is so much that I want you all to see, especially the building of this great entertainment empire! 

  My dad gave me a great piece of advice "The easy part is opening the doors to your business, the hard part is keeping those doors open." So help me keep the doors open by telling everyone you know to follow my journey and hop on the WeHateCoCo train! 

  If you have articles you would like me to write for your company or brand,  an event you would like me to host, or any speaking engagements. contact me! I would like to thank everyone for the support in advance and I will see everyone at the top!

DO NOT FORGET TO COMMENT!

Bobbi Kristina teams up with Tyler Perry

(The look I had when I found out this news. Then it was followed with a... "GIRL BOOM!")

             Over the past few weeks we have been hearing that daughter of the late Whitney Houston, Bobbi Kristina, has acquired a reoccurring role on Tyler Perry's hit TBS series "For Better or Worse."  Oh how I love to see children of superstars on television -_-. I won't judge her abilities before I see the show but I'm going in with my eyes covered! Bobbi Kristina did an interview with Oprah soon after Houston's death, (which I thought was entirely too soon!) where she discussed how she is moving and her next steps "I have to carry on the legacy," she said. "We're gonna do the singing thing. Some acting, some dancing. ... It's a lot of pressure, but she prepared me for it."

OK, Ms. Bobbi let's see what you can do! I pray that she does well because if she doesn't the media including myself will have the golden chair for her to take a seat in _/

Amanda...PUH-lease!

Who remembers the hit Nickelodeon show, "The Amanda Show?" Well, if you don't here is a clip from one of the shows most popular skits. 

 

 Well Amanda Bynes is slowly becoming a Hollywood bad girl. 

She went from THIS...

to THIS...

That's right another one of America's good girls, "ain't" so good! Bynes was arrested for DUI in California a few weeks ago. There are many accusations that little Miss Sunshine has a substance abuse problem. Kelly Osborne, daughter of Ozzy Osborne and co-host on Fashion Police, said that she can recognize the puffy face because it is a clear sign of substance abuse because she also battled with it in her younger years. 

Bynes was also seen trying to make a three point turn in West Hollywood, the police did not get involved BUT she still held up traffic, causing a bit of a ruckus on the main street.

SIGH.... I had high hopes of Amanda! I truly thought that she was going to be one childhood star that would make it through the Hollywood antics, but I guess not! The WEHATECOCO team is truly routing for her. I really don't like to see anyone take a fall.BUT at 26 years old I would think she would have that partying and drinking out of her system, not like she has been working... -_-

And 'YALL' worried about Chris Brown and Kanye! Psh!

WEHATECOCO'S YOUTUBE VIDEO OF THE WEEK!

I have watched this video every single day for the past week! I cry laughing each time!!! LMBO enjoy love bugs! Don't forget to put on "ya Waffle House Yellow!"

CHILLS DOWN MY SPINE! Tupac Hologram Full Performance Coachella 2012

                                  

 WeHateCoCo Quick Post!

                                                                   

 If this did not give you chills you are not human! This hologram performance was EPIC! This has officially taken the concert brand to an entirely new level! I can only image how many other artist they will do this for. I would think the next person they would do is Micheal Jackson. The way he was moving and interacting with the audience seemed like he was really there! I would have loved to be there and witnessed that!

Take a Dose of Theraflu Boo!

Now before I get into my opinion on this track by Kanye, take a listen first!

 

        "Can't a young ni*** get money anymore? Tell PETA my mink is draggin on the floor!" * Dramatic pause* I FREAKING LOVE KANYE WEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now for those of you who are animal lovers and obsessed with bringing down this man's career this is not the post for you and I advice you to exit off this page... BECAUSE KANYE IS THE BEST RAPPER IN THE GAME!  

        I think what I adore most about Mr. West is that he does not care what ANYONE thinks! He is going to say what he wants, when he wants, how he wants! Now whether you agree with what comes out of his mouth is on you, but one thing that the media and PETA cannot take away is his talent on the mic! 

       I am so sick of the public going in on Kanye because he has an opinion, and a personality of his own! People always worried about what he is going to say and the people he offends... JUST SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN! I repeat, "Can't a young ni*** get money anymore?!?!?!"

       

      Now this song is hot, he is playing off of all the rumors about him and Kim Kardashian's relationship. He says "And I'll admit, I had fell in love with Kim Around the same time she had fell in love with him Well that's cool, baby girl, do ya thang Lucky I ain't had Jay drop him from the team!"

      I personally would like to see Kim and Kanye officially together, but it will never happen because the Kardashian Brand will never be able to control Kanye like they do, Bruce Jenner, Scott Disick, and like they tried to do with Kris Humphries. Let's face it the Kardashian army will be dead soon and she's going to need to latch on to someone to keep her relevant.  But Kanye is not that man! Take a look at what Ms. Kardashian said about the Theraflu song! (Provided by TMZ) All I have to say to that is.... CHILE BOO -_-!

      Although Kanye did turn a h** into a housewife *cough cough Amber Rose* , Rapper Wiz Khalifa is reaping the benefits of that. Ye mentions that in this song too, "And the whole industry want to fuck your old chick..Only nigga I got respect for is Wiz." You would respect someone who wifed someone who been with pretty much every one in the industry :)! 

In other WEHATECOCO news, be on the look out for CoCo's sit downs of the week! New Vlog series starting in May!  

 

CoCo's Celebrity Rant

1. Coping with Death of a MOTHER

     As we all know a few weeks ago the world lost one of its most beautiful, amazing, and iconic voices of all time, Whitney Houston. Houston, 48, was found in a Beverley Hills hotel room on February 11 after she was believed to have downed a cocktail of Xanax, Valium and alcohol.

    It is a well known fact that Whitney battled with a drug addiction, but that is NOT what I will be writing about! I refuse to speak ill of someone who has touched billions, with a voice that is only God given! I will not write awful accusations about someones MOTHER, SISTER, or DAUGHTER!

   It was reported that Bobbi Christina immediately went to the Beverley Hills hotel when she received the news. She was not allowed in the room until after her mother's body was removed. It is completely awful that Bobbi Christina lost her mother, but now she had to deal with the cruelty of the media! Magazines, newspapers, blog writers should be ashamed of the MESS they say about this young girl and her mother!

    You will never understand the pain and the hurt one feels when they lose someone, But I ask you, how would you want people to talk about your mother after her death? How would you react to someone speaking ill about YOUR mother after a tragic death?  

    Wendy Williams was the ONLY media reporter that refused to speak about the death of Houston beyond the message that she left. Take a look!

All I have to say is respect this young girl, and send positive messages to young Bobbi Christina! Do not be apart of dragging Ms. Houston's name through the mud! Keep BC in your prayers, and pray that she can push through this tough time!

Ashes on Ryan Seacrest

           Sacha Baron Cohen, English stand up comedian has ruined Ryan Seacrest's Suit on the 2012 Oscar Red Carpet.  While Seacrest was interviewing Cohen as "The Dictator," Cohen joked that he was holding Kim Jong il's ashes, and the spilled all over Seacrest."I love it here because it gave me an opportunity to bring my dear friend and tennis partner, Kim Jong-il," he said showing a gold urn with the North Korean leader who died in December. "It was his dream to come to the Oscars and be sprinkled over the red carpet and Halle Berry's chest." 

          After that he spilled the ashes all over Ryan's suit.(Which was Burberry I must add!)  It is clear that this was not scripted because security immediately came and escorted Cohen away.

           US Weekly reported that there were rumors that Cohen was banned from attending this years awards, yet a representative told US Weekly that the reports were false and this is what the rep had to say "We don't think it's appropriate" for Cohen to hit the event in costume, suggesting the star would be "hijacking" the red carpet to promote his film. "But his tickets haven't been pulled. We're waiting to hear back."

           Seems to me that Cohen was anticipated trouble from the beginning! Cohen who is part of the cast of the film Hugo, nominated for 12 awards, probably won't be seeing another red carpet for a while, psshh and they talk about Kanye!

COCO's Celebirty Rant

1. LEAVE CHRIS BROWN ALONE!!!!!!!!!  

   Over the past two weeks Chris Brown has been the topic of discussion. Brown has recently won a Grammy for Best R&B Album of the year. Many celebrities BASHED Brown for his accomplishments that night! Country star Miranda Lambert was one of the most vocal critics, stating  "I don't get it. He beat on a girl ... not cool that we act like that didn't happen." Jack Osbourne was not impressed either, tweeting, "Chris Brown ... people don't forget! #chrisbrownbeatswomen," while singer Michelle Branch wrote, "Trying not to go off on a rant but ... Chris Brown ... *bites tongue* have we forgiven him?"  Even yesterday WWE Star Punk put a video on his twitter BASHING Brown! Take a look!

 

Chris responded on his twitter by saying, "HATE ALL YOU WANT BECUZ I GOT A GRAMMY Now! That's the ultimate FUCK OFF!" Websites such as Yahoo.com and MTV.com called this comment a tantrum! And to be honest I'm going to have a tantrum if you all don't leave this man alone! Him having THE BEST R&B ALBUM OF THE YEAR is in fact the ultimate F*** OFF! Brown has such a powerful fan base that all the celebrity bashing will only make him stronger! Let's just say this, I did not see Miranda Lambert tweet about Lindsay Lohan stealing, or her drug abuse, and the justice system letting her get by with rehab (RETREAT)  and a punk behind house arrest!! 

There are rumors that Brown and former girlfriend Rihanna are back together. Do I care, No! Should you care, NO! Let these people make their own decisions and to be honest it's all just one big business deal.

  Rihanna and Brown released a new single this week, which is a remix to Rihanna's song 'Cake.'

One Grammy, Three number one albums, AMAZING talent...and fan base that will never fade... I say on behalf of Chris Brown........LOOK AT HIM NOW! ;) And for all the HATERS..................take a seat \_
