I saw this on TV! She had a point! They always have negative things to say and NEVER anything good! Tocarra has never been one to hold her tounge and this is just another example of it.

I think she was right for going off…everyone is so worried about how you look. If she is in shape, happy with herself, and healty than what more can you ask for. At first I said why did she even come back on the show…but than I thought I am glad she did…b/c people can see her and maybe it will help them. and as far as them saying be a lady and have some class….she is a lady…she just has feelings and they really pissed her off.

Honestly, it kinda feeds into the stero type of “Angry Black Woman/Man”. Not sure if it was the best thing to do. Like Dr. Ian said. HAVE SOME DAMN CLASS!

I had a feeling she was gonna ring the alarm sooner or later. They were pretty rude to her. Dr.Ian had it right though…

Too love is usually best when trying to lose weight. Each season someone has to be so freaking dramatic. Last Season it was Angie Stone talking about she had heart problems. These damn celebs want to lose the weight, but don’t want nobody talking ish to them on national tv. She was pulling a Tyra moment.

you cant just go around telling a woman she is fat and needs to tone up this and shape that, and not expect her to reach the limit. plus of course the trick is hungry as hell lol.

Maybe she was hungry. Shoot, I’ve been known to throw a temper tamtrum or two when I havn’t gotten my sustenance. She was REALLY upset tho. They both could have handled things better. Did that lady clap in her face? Oh heyol naw!!!

No she is so right…everyone has moments where they pissed and need time to vent. It has nothing to do with class its just we are all human and have moments where we need to express our thoughts and sometime its in a vengeful manner. People respond how they feel the counter party is coming…therefore, she was presented with negative vibes and responded in a negative manner. Kudos to you Tocarra for being you.

Sarah, what stereotype do you feed when you get upset? When a blackwoman gets her point across she’s “angry”. When another woman does it she has “spunk”, “spicy”, or a “go-getter”. Kill the noise please.

Dr. Ian needs to shut up, he sounds so sexiest. He gone say “Be a Woman”…wow…Tocarra I love you and self worth is everything so do what you got to do. But as for the “panel of judges”…they can go to hell except Harvey. I like him….

Don’t go on a weight loss show and bitch about people being harsh about your weight. If she has such a great self-image and is 100% happy where she is, why go on the show?

i thought it was a pop fiction prank. can’t wait to see the new episode this sunday on E!

The show is called boot camp right? I don’t think they are trying to lose too much weight. I think they are tweaking their bodies and getting toned. She apparently has not been praised for the hard work that she’s put forward and is hurt by that. There is a great deal of emotion in her voice. It’s not about ‘class’ IMO.

Oh and thanks to Toccara… those ratings have just gone up. LOL

Yeah, this is totally fake. I heard that some stars are planting stories to test how gullible/crazy the media can be. Looks like they lost this round.

She had the right to go off on their asses.
I dont think she looks that bad. She’s thick. They are trippin really hard and Dr Ian needs to get it together and that lady was wrong for clappin in her face.

You know…its soooo funny how when someone who is not black curses someone out, they are NOT told to have some class, its okay for them to go off on someone…but when a black woman does it, they are simply told to “have some class”, and then its as though we are trying to be told to bite our tongues.
So are we NOT supposed to go off on people who act like assholes toward us? I don’t think so…Tocara had every right to speak her mind. Whatever they did to her, she had every right to yell at them.
I like how people like to underestimate black women, damn it some of us are strong like a hard ass brick, if we got something to say we will say it to your face. Don’t nobody ever try to stop me from saying what I need to say because I will say it.

If I were her, I’d quit the show and go on my own goddamn diet plan.

March 17, 2008 at 2:02 am
I have always never liked Dr Ian anyway. To me he is very fake. He doesnt even like his own race enough to marry into it… thus the ‘have some class’ statement… self-hating bastard

Since America’s Next Top Model Tocarra has lost significant amount of weight. She looked good back then and she looks good now. She is extrmemly curvy and I disagree with the comment he made about Black women wanting to keep our curves and having a problem loosing weight. Me personally I’m 5′5, DD’s, and for my age and weight I am supposed to be be 120 pounds. There is no way in hell I am going to reach 120 pounds without looking sick, since I weigh 160 now. I think black women need to loose weight for health reasons and not to reach an “ideal” because the “ideal” is clearly not taking hips, booty, theighs, and breats in account. I can loose all the weight I want but because of this I will never be what the ideal weight is. Tocarra had a point, she has worked hard and she is in good shape, I would look at the health issue and if she in jeaopardy of diabetes or high blood pressue versus a woman her age and height needs to be. She has held herself with enough class to endure this fashion and industry world. It can be hard for a woman to be told all the time you are fat, you need to loose weight, you don fit into the standards of American Beauty, well she fits into the Fabulous sexy standards of a healthy African American woman with curves and hips and a ass. Kill her, and kill me for having an ass and curves that are natural and real unlike these other chics “Kim Kardashian, Coco (Ice T wife), Angel Lola Luv who have injections and they are fake. The REAL women who have REAL curves and a REAL ASS are going to weigh different. Ian and Harvey being black men should understand this most of all.

By the way, I am healthy at my current weight and it is 40 pounds off of what I am supposed to weight at my age and heights. I am still working out though to stay toned but the curves and hips aren’t going anywhere and I agree whenever there is a Black woman who goes off she has no class but let a White woman or any women of any other ethnic background its ok she is releasing stress and she is expressing herself. Tocarra is a lady and she held herself with amazing standards to even be around in the industry thus far. If I were her I would still do the show and just set an example and prove that she is ok with herself and she loves herself the way she is and the more she says she loves herself the more they try to shut her down

Look, I don’t know what led up to this because I didn’t watch the whole show, BUT whatever it was she was pissed. Pissed-tivity has no class….AND IT SHOULDN’T. The only thing that messed her up is that she got so mad that she couldn’t even talk, lol. But, I’m sorry, I felt her anger just watching the clip. I know how I get when I get mad….so I feel her for real. People have their nerve saying how a person is suppose to act when they get mad. Anger is in the eye of the beholder, lol. I can see if she was just a loose canon to start with…but she’s not. Good for her for letting it out….I just wish I could’ve understood everything she was saying, lol.

She’s got a point. This world needs positivity.
Furthermore, who does he think he is telling her to ‘be a woman, have some class’. that disgusts me, it really does.
Trent
March 17, 2008 at 4:37 am
This was going to happen sooner than later. The judges on the show drove her to it. Dr. Ian is full of it. “Have some class…” He never told Harvey to have some class when he was threatening to kill Dustin last season. I can’t stand Dustin either by the way. Ian needs to lean back. I am not saying I agree with her behaviour but I know that if I was in her shoes, I probably would have done the same. Losing weight is hard, and to be told that you are not doing enough when you know that you are giving it your all, is punishment on the heart more than the body.

That is so crazy. WOW. Homegirl lost it! I wonder what Tyra would say?!!?!
Erica Nicole
March 17, 2008 at 5:53 am
Why don’t she just LEAVE THE DAMN SHOW??? Damn its not THAT hard to lose weight jeez…what she should do is see her doctor and let her doctor be the one to advise her on how to lose the weight, not the 3 clowns up on stage at that damn fitness show.
Erica Nicole
March 17, 2008 at 5:54 am
And who cares what Tyra has to say, she ain’t Tocarra’s mama.

FIRST OF ALL:
lol!!! Golden Girl!! “clearly she needs a biscuit” girrllll. CALL ME. we need to hang out. lol.
aaanyyywaayyy… Dr. Ian is a pig. if he wants results sans the psycho break-downs he needs to learn how to make a compliment sandwich – hold the mayo.
<3

March 17, 2008 at 7:28 am
LOL @ Andrew – Hold the Mayo LOL!!!! He should hold that damn pickle too LOL!!!
I AM LEGEND
March 17, 2008 at 7:48 am
I’ve been sooooo over Dr. Ian a long time ago. He’s so fake and self hating. I knew one day a WOMAN would get in his face and call him out on his bullshyt. The chick had a point! Angry black woman, NO. Pissed off, YES!!!
Erica Nicole
March 17, 2008 at 7:58 am
Yep, Toccara was THE ONE, and she was not the one, the two or the three (uno, dos o tres) to be messed around with. So kudos to her, she da bomb.
As far as Dr. Ian – everytime he talks or says something, it looks like he’s saying this:
“I look like a vegetable” LOL ;P

March 17, 2008 at 9:53 am
ummm…can we just talk about the chick on the panel who looks to be if not the same size as tocara…I mean really, why isn’t she losing weight if thats what your expecting everyone to do?
Anyways, I would also like to talk about the editing that they did on this show because it seems like in the previous episode that tocara isn’t making sense…why would she be on a weight loss show to not lose weight? And I believe the reason is that she want’s to get toned but not get smaller…I think they cut her saying that purposely to make her look like a crazy black woman…
hence why reality shows suck but I can’t stop watching them anyways

March 17, 2008 at 10:28 am
i’m not even going to entertain the black woman thing…that was a disgraceful display for ANY woman. (does someone have a specific example of a non-black woman acting in the same manner and being referred to as “spunky” or just expressing herself?) regardless, whatever her problem was, i feel the way she handled it was ridiculous. and her message was just as ineffective because who listens to someone shrilling and screaming like a trapped animal? no one. tocarra, stop it.

March 17, 2008 at 11:05 am
You will actually see a contrast when Sommore made her comments in a calmer manner.
I don’t care that Toccara went off. It’s good to do sometimes, we ALL do it. It’s the people who don’t go off that I worry about. But what I didn’t care for was that no one could understand her. She went all yiddish on us. What the hell was that coming out the mouth cause it wasn’t English?
Erica Nicole
March 17, 2008 at 11:23 am
All I’m saying is, people act like its OK for only CERTAIN people to go off on others.
So Toccara doesn’t have the right to speak her mind? Is that it? Regardless of what was coming out of her mouth, for someone to be that upset, she was clearly emotional about it.
Noone said anything when Harvey went off on Dustin….I understand Dustin is an asshole, but noone said anything… Its okay for Harvey to go off on Dustin, but its not okay for Toccara to go off on someone whom she feels treated her unfairly…
YEAH OK….

I guess Tocarra finally reached her breaking point. No matter how confident you are, it is hard as a curvy woman to have people constantly hating on you and saying that you, the way you are, is still not good enough. I have gone through that my whole life with my family reminding me constantly I need to watch what I eat, lose weight, and saying to me that no man will ever be attracted to me because of my size.
She could have gone about it in a different way but I see her point. As for clapping in her face… heeeeellll nahhh… thats a fast way to get ANYONE pissed off.
TeneW
March 17, 2008 at 2:37 pm
I have to say that I think Miss Toccara was very wrong for this. No one has said that she looks bad, she’s absolutely gorgeous the way she is and the way she was before her first season. This show is about being healthy and 38.7% body fat is NOT HEALTHY. That is almost double what it should be. A body fat percentage like that is setting yourself up for illness in the future. She may not need to lose the weight now (it’s only 10 damn pounds), but it’s best to get into the habit of being healthy when you’re young instead waiting until you get sick. The show (and healthy eating/exercise in general) is about getting fit and in shape. She was there when she left the show and she should’ve maintained that. It’s not about how you look, it’s about what the health tests say about you and hers said that she needed to lose some body fat. All she needs to do is lose 10 lbs and keep it that way. She is not taking the show seriously and the judges are annoyed by that. If she didn’t think she needed to lose weight she shouldn’t have come on the show. They take this stuff serious. I don’t think any of the judges are unfair or biased against big people as far as what they look like…except for Harvey’s mean ass lol.

And some of ya’ll need to stop all this “black women this, black women that” talk. Cut the bullshit.
Numero Uno
March 17, 2008 at 5:05 pm
TeneW, i’m with you. why are people getting so emotionally tied to this topic? some folks really need to calm it down…um, its a blog. so not that serious. and tocarra doesn’t know any of us so….um, chill out.
i’ve read thru the comments and i don’t think anyone was disputing the fact that she spoke her mind…it was the manner in which she spoke.
Tocarra Weave
March 17, 2008 at 8:28 pm
First I agree with Numero Uno. NO WOMEN SHOULD BE CUSSING OUT LIKE THAT.. HAVING SPASM AND CAN’T EVEN TALK PROPERLY CUZ SHE SO EMOTIONALLY FUCK UP.
Tocarra need to sit her azz down. If you don’t want to loose weight, don’t participate than get upset over shit. That don’t make no sense to me.
Oh hell, she might as well just go posing butt naked on mag covers..since that’s all she good at.
alauryn04
March 18, 2008 at 5:30 am
okay, well i don’t watch the show at all but from what she’s saying, if she likes how the f*ck she is then why is she on the show??? i think she does look good, HOWEVER, the whole point of the show is to lose the weight and get in WAY better shape than you are. it’s like hiring a personal trainer but then getting pissed because he’s telling you the problem areas and what you need to work on and you trying to tell him “well i look good and am happy with the way i am”. that’s all fine and well but then…….. why are you here???
thats my question to her. it sounds like to me that the way she feels about herself defeats the whole purpose of her being on the show. as i said, i think she looks good and if she feels that way as well then take your ass home and feel good about yourself.
my thoughts only
Ione
March 18, 2008 at 6:23 pm
Woo! Tocarra looked like she was about 15 seconds from slapping the crap out of Dr. Ian. The more he kept telling her to “have some class” the more irritated she got, and by right.

March 18, 2008 at 11:35 pm
omg i swear that got damn doctor ian makes my muthafuckin ass twitch. i cant stand pompous bastards like him. i could never stand ian and this new psychiatrist. i praise toccara for everything she said to them assholes. i take my hat off to that bitch, and i hope theres more to come of her expressing herself. after watching this it makes me wanna jump into the screen and back her up all the way.
