Yvonna Russell: Delicious Diva Sasha Allen
Keri Hilson is the latest singer to pose nude for Allure magazine's annual Naked Issue this May, in which she explains her shift from behind the scenes as a songwriter to the forefront as a successful R&B artist.
.
Hilson, who posed tastefully on a white chaise lounge, talked in the article about how the shoot symbolizes her shedding the need to add enhancements to maker her feel beautiful. "We do a lot of things to seek validation: I have to get more expensive handbags or fake lashes or fake boobs. This shoot was about dropping all that," she said.
Gabriel Union and Jill Scott have posed for previous issues, and for this issue Keri is joined by actresses Ashley Tisdale, Bridget Moynahan, and Kaley Cuoco.

For years my daughs joked she was about sex to promote her career. OK now who said she was an R&B singer....she's in the POP category with the rest of the WEAK voices!!!! I almost fell off my couch when Rhianna won a R&B category on a show. NEWS FLASH: Most R&B Divas can blow the doors off! They don't use auto tune,naked photos and gyrations dears hahahah

Keri said she had to diet to do this photo shoot? She lookin SKINNY AS A STRING BEAN? Why didn't SKANKY KERI do PLAYBOY? See, this is what's wrong with her, the other models up in this mag? There is no need to poise nude? Nothing wrong with the naked body BUT, they could have covered certain areas BUT they didn't and done it GRACEFULLY? I don't think you have to UNCOVER ALL just to get your point across about BEAUTY and to EMBRACE IT? Kerry said, "Oh I wonder what my Dad is going to say"? WHAT DO YOU THINK HE WOULD SAY? HOT BOD? How SICKNING! That's all Keri has to show for is SKIN and more SKIN becuase the woman has NO TALENT AT ALL! Just like Ri, Nicki, Lady GOO GOO, Brit, Beyonce, and many others. They all just can't get better than that? HOW SAD! :-(

Sistahs, stop taking your damn clothes off for money!! Stop trying to be "sex symbols"; start focusing your energies on the continuous upbringing and further development of our communities... stop taking money from the white media so that they may exploit your beautiful bodies! Its time we realize whats really going on out here; republican political powers are attacking the middle class and lower classes of society, which the majority of our people reside in. When are we gonna get our minds off the dollah bill, which is the root of all evil!! Stop being mere eye candy for people who don't respect or even know you...

If you're a straight woman, I look forward to seeing how offended you'll be, if some famous men with six-pack stomachs, and low-hanging penises pose nude.

Sounds like you are a ugly B that couldn't make a dollah selling your fat ass. You complain about the "white media"...shit one of the big reasons that Keri is kinda hot is because he is part white you big welfare ass loser...at least she is able to milk the "white" media because she sure has alot more going for her then then you...food stamp racist B!!!! Quit trying to tell your sucessful "sistas what to do unless you are doing better then them. Have a great day racist loser!

She did it because she wanted to. Whether it be for herself or her bank account. What the hell do you care. BTW, at least be fully "informed" before typing. She's half white numbnuts!!!

WOW!
So you think only Republicans exploit people for profit, huh?
And you think only Republicans are destroying the middle class?
Wake up and smell the feces.
You are right but only half right.
Off-shoring of jobs is promoted by BOTH parties.
Just look at GE- Obama is tight with this- his favorite corporation. GE earned 5 B and paid zero taxes. They also gave millions to the Obama campaign. Do you think that is a coincidence?
Also, who is promotimg open borders? Mostly the Ds but also some Rs.
Why?
Easy answer: cheap labor. The laws and supply and demand-more labor+stable demand=lower wages.
As a bonus for the Ds, these will eventually be millions of votes once amnesty is in place.
Then each former illegal can bring in three or four relatives and lower wages more. Then they will all want taxpayer funded freebies and the wealthy will leave if they are smart.
