    Remember when Kanye loved Black women! Kanye’s mom wanted him to marry her and he probably would have had his mom not died. Then he started messing with straight up trash! I am still hoping Kanye will turn it around.

    I am very proud of where Alexis is now. I also remember that “Prom” outfit. It definitely was different, but she wore it and wore it well. I know you will continue to go far and Kanye lost a great lady; now he’s just settling. Keep your smile, your classy ways, and keep reaching for the success you so much deserve.
