I think they are beefing it up for the show. The producers are pressuring them to do different things to keep their audience.

I would think their other family members and the kid's fathers are watching them while they are traveling.

I had total respect for them flying where they needed to to work hard on their career re-launch UNTIL they screwed around and got booted from Toni's Hall of Fame show and nearly booted from the Soul Train awards! Tamar hasn't even been doing exercises, the big sister still hasn't stepped up her singing game or lost the weight, and Trina and Gabe have put their sexual misbehavior and body parts right out there as graphically as possible! WTH? They might as well be home with the kids for all of that.

See I never took the relaunch of their career seriously because all they ever did was argue. They are SO unprofessional I just can't really imagine anyone working with them and dealing with all that drama; yelling, walking out of rehearsals, not knowing the words to the songs. Being late to the red carpet when you're not even a real celebrity just further convinces me they have no idea what it takes to be successful in the music industry.

Plus they're so all over the place. They wanna do a Braxton's album but Tamar wants to be Lady Gaga/Beyonce, Trina wants to be Gwen Stefani, Towanda wants to be Angela Bassett & Traci wants to do hair....it just really makes no sense.

I was really surprised at Tamar because I thought with her husband being so established in the business, you would think she'd want to make a better impression.

I completely agree. I can't believe he doesn't ask her to calm it down around his professional business. She is over the top and annoying as h***. I thought she was a "tell it like it is person" at first but I was wrong! Her sisters did say she has changed since the show. It's no surprise.

I'm really wondering if Trina is serious about letting Gabe go. It seems like they play the same merry go round over and over. Cheating, mad at each other, counseling, starting over for the sake of the kids, then back to cheating. They need to save themselves from the misery.

I'm so over Trina's crying and sobbing about Gabe. It's been YEARS and you haven't left yet so clearly you accept his behavior.

Now that she has the band guy she may move on BUT the band guy doesn't like her getting drunk and crazy either.

I wonder if he knows she is unmanageable and is hesitant to put serious money and his rep on the line. She talks big but www what would happen if she really can't calm her nerves for performances. When she's with the girls she can get her frustrations out on the other girls but alone? No one to whip.

I honestly don't take her seriously as a performer. I don't even know what genre she'd be in...R&B? Pop?

Plus her attitude has poisoned me against her before I've even heard her seriously sing.

Just saw that the Braxton sisters are going to be on Dr Phil tomorrow (Thursday)
I bet Tamar will give the good doc a migraine.

Would the show be successful without Tamar though? I'm not sure. Even though I find Tamar so annoying and attention seeking, I think without Tamar having her sisters running all over the country and screaming at her, it would be boring. The other sisters don't really let their personal lives and personalities out like that except Trina. But everyone is so fed up with her playing victim to Gabe and her drinking, we are all over that.

But again, it could be that Tamar is so over the top that the main focus is on her drama. That may overshadow the bones of the show.
