Fox Retaliates, Calls Solange a 'Brat'

We promise we're not picking on Solange, but this just keeps getting better and better. After lashing out at Las Vegas daytime Fox entertainment news correspondent Monica Jackson last week, the singer is receiving some backlash for her 'unprofessional' behavior. Fox affiliate KVVU's news anchor Dave Hall defended Jackson and slammed Solange during the network's Friday morning broadcast. "What a brat!" Hall proclaimed, adding "Quit gravy-training off your sister and do your own career."

I think what was said after the interview was unprofessional and uncalled for. The news reporters overstepped their boundaries and should give Solange an on-air apology. They were very disrespectful and what was said was hurtful. Who the hell are they to be putting down anybody when they don't know how to write a story, let alone deliver it. Really who the hell are they anyway but 2 unknown wannabe's. Check yourself before you go on air and make an ass of yourself.Let the girl live without you making comments about gravy training.Really, who the hell hired such bully?

She put a youtube video out explaining her actions, I think some of you should check it out. And regardless of whether or not her statements we warranted or unwarranted, it was equally unprofessional of the other two news anchors to speak so disrespectfully about her. I can't believe they attacked her that viciously. That guy sounded like a middle school bully...

I think her record sales are going to suffer as a result of this too. Death metal bands and rappers are more polite on camera than she was.

How was she a punching bag for white people? I'm a little confused by that comment. Anyway, If you watched the video on there, The interviewer was also black and said nothing of the sort to her. She was very professional and polite. She brought up her album and nothing else. I'm white and I dont appreciate those comments considering I treat everyone with the same respect I would like to be shown. I love Beyonce! I think she's very talented. I haven't heard anything from her sister though and with that attitude of hers, I doubt I ever will.

HAHA She should just give up really because its true!

They were not even talking to HER when the mentioned the other. Plus, another thing against her is God she is the most un attractive person ive ever seen, and so is her sister. None of them are.

If she wants to get an attitude, shes going to get one back and I say she, and the rest of them all deserve it, Black White, Hispanic, whatever they all do if they want their heads to get that big.

no matter what she does, she'll ALWAYS be compared to her sister. there is NOTHING at this point that she can do to distinguish herself from her sister. beyonce has done movies and tv, designed clothes and i know that somewhere in there is a spot on broadway. so whath the hell can solange do? NOTHING! i didn't see the interview, but i will say this to journalist: don't get mad if your interviewee mouths off at you b/c you can't keep it on topic. we don't care to know what she feels about her sister and her SISTER'S PERSONAL LIFE. she was on the show to promote HER album and all ppl wanted to talk about was her sister. i'd get bitchy, too! if her sister isn't talking, just drop it and stick with the subject at hand. no one is getting pulitzer's or peabody's for getting "the scoop" on some star's personal life. frankly, i could care less. i love them for their work, thank you very much!

See what happens when we expose ourselves? We become punching bags for white people. And, unfortunately, Solange hasn't many supporters of the Black community to support her because of her own behavior. We need to get it together!!!
