Everyone on the show is "urban." That's obviously not the issue...,especially when Tamar's personality was created by her gay yes men.
Tamar's problem is she doesn't know how to dial it back... Let's compare someone like Wendy Williams... Wendy was a radio host who thrived off shock value, being messy, and insulting to her guests. But when Wendy got on daytime talk she scaled that back. Wendy was/is still herself, but she found a way to make all her potential flaws come across as pleasant. Instead of gossip, she talks about "hot topics," and delivers light shade, or let's the audience do it for her. I mean the whole "how you doing" line was originally used as an insult to imply homosexuality to guests and people who called in to the show....and now it's a cutesy line that middle aged white women use with their homegirls. You have to know your audience. And with that said they probably should have done the focus group after the test run....
I think they did a great job with creating segments named after her gay lingo. That was a step in the right direction, but everytime she opened her mouth, she blew it IMO. She had some really great, genuine moments, but most of the time she was acting like an entitled brat....much like her reality show self...

If they saw Tamar in BFV and Tamar and Vince then they should have known who they were getting. She is who she is and a lot of people obviously liked that because it contributed to their success, I tbought that all of their personalities worked and made the show what it was. I hope the 3rd season is their final season.

If they saw Tamar in BFV and Tamar and Vince then they should have known who they were getting. And there it is. They knew who and what they were getting and that's probably why they wanted her to begin with.

Tamar Braxton’s co-host-bashing could come back to bite her
Sources tell us there may be video of fired “The Real” host Tamar Braxton lashing out at producers — and she should fear it getting out.
“Telepictures is really frustrated with how she’s handling things. If she continues to smear her co-hosts and the show, they’re going to release the video and audio of her blowing up on set,” says the source.
Braxton was fired from “The Real” over the weekend.
“I love u all but I have been stabbed in the back by someone I stupidly trusted (not my man or my sisters),” she said.
Insiders say the co-hosts were blindsided by the news, but the source says Braxton was aware because husband Vincent Herbert, a producer on the show, was in on the talks.
“Her husband has been aware for two weeks that she wasn’t getting picked up,” says the source.
Her co-hosts, including Loni Love, were accused of backstabbing the star.
Love fired back on Facebook: “None of us knew about Tamar until she texted us on Saturday . . . I got a group text, and she said, ‘I heard I’m being fired,’ ” she said, denying she leaked it. “I’m not the type of person to give out information . . . I’ll probably get in trouble for doing this. Maybe, I’ll be the next one [fired].”
Another insider tells us the other hosts, including Love, will remain on the show.

She needs to use this press she's getting as a launching pad to revive the album with a tour and double release of "Must Be Good To You" and "S.O.N."

I wanted to leave my comments out of this mess, but it was confirmed yesterday that she wasn't dropped.
People want to continually run their mouths and make up stories so they can get blog views.

She's definitely not happy with Epic so I assume she'd ask to be let go.

Also, if you want some REAL tea WETV showed that next weeks Braxton Family Values is going to cover "The Real" drama (they are wasting no time).

Loved the performance. I feel like I would genuinely like Tamar if she didn't try and pander to her reality TV "persona" all the time.

I love that song so much and I miss Michael Jackson's iconic performance of it. In the meantime, I can play the opening of Hold On by En Vogue.

She really needs to let someone else handle her social media.
I wonder how they are gonna incorporate her firing on the episode this soon into the season of BFV. Is this gonna be like a "special" episode, and they will be back to the actual story line the following week?

Ya'll Tamar was just on Steve Harvey's morning show and they announced she has been signed to Steve's 112 production company! Steve has big things planned for Tamar and believes someone will be fired for letting her go.
She also confirmed that the rumors of her being dropped and a divorce are not true. People just wanted to continue to drag her while she was already down but #SHEWON :)
