Solange Knowles Stops Concert To Yell At The Paparazzi
JUL 8, 2009 AT 09:33 AM
Apparently Solange Knowles hates the way she looks when she sings.
The 23-year-old singer - sister of 'Halo' star Beyonce - stopped halfway
through her performance at the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans last
weekend and demanded a paparazzo stop taking photos of her.
As the audience looked on in amazement, Solange shouted:
"Mr. Photographer,
you are making me self-conscious. I swear I make the same stupid three faces
over and over again, so please leave me be."
Can you imagine!? LOL! I guess Solange is REALLY REALLY against people taking her picture while performing.

That's awkward.
So why even sing in public in the first place?

Yeah, there's always going to be pictures of her singing somewhere.
She sounds like a baby. You're a singer and a (sort of) celebrity!!!! Its part of your job to get your picture taken!!!!
Emphasis on "sort of." Would anybody care who she is if she wasn't Beyonce's sister?

Yeah, if she wants to be a singer, she needs to shut up and realize that's part of the gig. Well, to a certain extent. Doesn't seem like she'll ever be THAT popular. Not yet, anywho.
Not ever, with that attitude. She's acting as if she has her sister's level of fame.

She tries desperately to stand out and to be taken seriously as a singer. Unfortunately, she lacks any real talent and walks around looking like she just jumped out of a Jack-in-the-box.

WOW she's never going to get as big as her sister with attitude like that! She should be happy that people WANT to take her picture!!

seems like a valid request to me, just one thing she should've thought of that before the concert, not during the concert. If she doesn't like her pictures to be taken while she's performing something had to be arranged before then prior.

Oh, jeez! She should be glad anybody is trying to take her picture at all. Even Beyonce had a sense of humor about the time she FELL DOWN in concert. She needs to get over herself!
solange WHO? SIT DOWN, talentless brat and be grateful to have your sister's coattails to ride on.

Solage is ugly...but being full of herself makes her uglier. Beyonce is fabulously beautiful when was the last time Loreal offered your broken down arse a contract???

hahaahahaha!!!!
Usually photographers only take photos for the first 3 songs so it's a valid request.
I absolutely can't stand this girl's ridiculous, stuck-up attitude she always exudes. Seriously, it's perfectly legal to take pictures, get the $%^& over it!! Not to mention that stupid tantrum she threw on live-air to a reporter who did nothing wrong...it's definitely worth watching (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVjZ41OOtaY). Seriously, who acts like this??

Ok, so what's the difference between a paparazzi member taking photos, and fans taking photos. If she's self conscious about herself during performances, than she should ban ALL photos.

she's riding her sister's coat tail. I don't think she should be acting like a diva yet.

She needs to get a grip and be glad somebody is actually paying attention to her.

Ugh I can not stand this girl. Who the f*%# does she think she is?? I watched her on this some tv series and she was acting all diva like. She cant even really sing. Leave the diva-ness to your big sis!
she knows she is butt ugly..that is why
You guys are overreacting with these comments. She was just joking around. I was there. She was making fun of herself.
I understand if you guys don't like her. But the way you guys bash her and take this ish so seriously, like she took a dumb on your perfect world, is a bit ridiculous! Geeeesh!
I agree with Leaha.
The girl cracks a joke and ýou guys are acting like she single handly drop kicked your grandparents into the pits of hell!
I don't call anyone ugly, cause god knows I don't have the gutts to put up my picture on the internets!
She just didn't want to break the photog's camera.
She was thinking of others. Give her a break...
