Just like she created the she/me/her saying
 
That's a "queen" saying that's been around for quite some time. At this point, Tamar seems like more of an imitation of a drag queen than vice versa.

All of what BB said. Tamar, IMO, acts like an over hype queen, or like she studied "Paris Is Burning" and emulates that....and Paris is Burning was based off queen culture and balls of the 80s.

Actually a lot of the things women say now are derived from "queen" culture. For example, "yassssss" "hunty" etc etc

Seinfield was an extremely funny series.

So black ppl should only watch black shows?  I missed that memo.


I usually watch shows where there's at least 1 black character. Only exception is Arrested Development. I don't think it's about "should" black people watch.

Something like this is not a big deal IMO. I've seen several instances over the years when a web site gets the name wrong for a white actress or singer. *shrugs*
