Amber Rose addresses all of the rumorsWhen Kanye West was first spotted with his new, bad-ass girlfriend with a shaved head, Amber Rose, the gossip started immediately. Everyone talked about Rose the stripper, Rose the gold-digger, and, of course, Rose the lesbian.
But there's more to her than that. Kanye's on-again/off-again girlfriend is featured in the new issue of Complex magazine, called "Women are Complex, Too." The magazine also decided to do an extensive, web-exclusive interview and photoshoot with the new Ford model, where she's quite candid about all the gossip, Kanye, and girls. First, here's the video: In the interview, Rose addressed her perceived sexuality:
After photos of her partying with another woman popped up all over the internet, rumors quickly spread that she was cheating on Kanye. But Rose has an explanation for that, too: That is my bestest friend Dez. She’s been my friend for about 10 years now. We were dancers — you know, strippers — together, and that night when we took all those pictures, I was back in Philly and hadn’t seen her in a while, and I was like,"'Yo Dez, let’s just take some shots of Hennessy and take some f----n' pictures, just for us." She didn’t realize I do have some type of celebrity-status, and she posted them on her MySpace. Kanye knows that that’s just my friend, we’re not lesbian lovers. Everybody made a big deal out of that and it’s like, how many girls do that everyday and take silly pictures? Despite all the rumors that go around about her, Rose, who met Kanye on the set of his video, "Robocop," seems pretty down to earth and, you know, normal (not a crazy, bisexual, stripper freak!). Her new modeling contract with Ford is clearly well-deserved, and despite what the bloggers say, she is also a pretty promising role model, too. I want young girls growing up to know that they can actually eat something, and be beautiful and be a model, that they can actually have a real women’s body and do modeling. Her Complex photos are decent proof of that. What do you think of Amber Rose? Are you a fan? Submitted by on August 13, 2009 - 5:00pm. |

That cigarette
Amber Rose>>
Gorgeous as all get out BUT I'm with Monica_Ca: as an unapologetic, militant anti-smoker, that cigarette kills it for me. I get that she's not actually smoking the ciggie but it's the implication that she did or does or is going to and that kills it. Photoshop out the ciggie and it's a striking photo of a striking person.
deeAAAAAmn!!!
What do I think about Amber Rose?

I love her style in that
mmmm I love her style in that photo... okay time for googling images of amber rose

Love that look
"YOU BETTER WORK!" Love the sneakers and how they match her necklace and lips.

The cigarette does ruin it a bit.
Or maybe I'm just a prude..? It isn't even so much about the health-consciousness of it; the 'delicate cigarette' thing is so overdone anymore. (Even though a red apple in her palm would've been much more appealing!)
In spite of her futuristic style, she does seem really eloquent and down to earth.

I understand the cigarette hate, but at the same time, I don't.
In today's pop culture it is more acceptable to crucify a smoker. 50 years ago, a person complaining about cigarette smoke would be asked to leave and find a place to drink somewhere else.
People find different things attractive. Did Marie Louise Parker lose attractiveness because she was pictured in a promo surrounded by pot?
Or maybe Amber Rose should be crucified because she has tattoos. Or her strong accent.
There are some things that I find unnattractive on people. Some of which are on Amber Rose in those pictures. HOWEVER. I'm sure I have some faults of my own, some of which I hope to not be scrutinized over. OR have my work be degraded to one particular issue.
Amber Rose is an attractive person. And people have flaws. If she was everything I wanted and except for one thing, I would accept it. Because finding the perfect person is impossible
Sticks out tongue
To play with the diamond lol
Matt's world you just live in it!
Amber Rose
I've never really heard of Amber Rose but by the looks of those pictures, I need to get to knowing! :)
I'm actually starting to
I'm actually starting to find fierce opponents to cigarette a little annoying, and I don't even smoke.
That aside, she's absolutely beautiful (smoking so to speak) and what she says about her sexuality makes absolute sense, it's simple and graceful.

"...what she says about her sexuality makes absolute sense, it's simple and graceful"Hear hear.
I hate smoking as much as anyone, but out of this entire article, people feel the need to comment on a little cigarette? Really?
Whether she smokes or not, I think she's a really cool, down-to-earth person.
Hmmm...
I had no idea who she was, so I looked her up. Saw a few interviews on Youtube, and I must say, I don't like her. She doesn't strike me as someone who's all that intelligent, and I find her a tad vulgar, and not in the right way either. (tongue in cheek, for example, à la P!nk)
Goes to show that you don't need talent to be (semi-)famous.
There's having your own look, and then there's trying to hard. Sorry, Amber Rose just doesn't do it for me. This one is allllllll yours.
Sexi....
smoking hot! Outspoken,
Hmmmm
Hmmm A New Kind Of Beauty: Amber Rose
I,too, don't know much about her. Another queer person just came out. More importantly a womyn of color.
Her style is something I turned my head for.
I hope you keep your eye on her. Different is very good.
hotness!!!!
i thinks she's verry hot. and the fact that she takes no crap is sooo sexi, Kanye knows how to pick um, oh yea.
True feelings can never be put into words.
therfore when you can't explain how you feel about someone that's when you know..
I was watching tv and
She's hot
She's really hot with no doubt!
Honestlyyyy :)
Ilubb her
It'salexbih
I agree, without the
Is it bad that I didn't even
You guys just don't like
Couldn't have said it better
smokin penis? ewwww
I'll stick with no smoking thanks......
On the other hand, she looks amazing. People seem to hate baldness, but now I'm a fan!
She's not bald, she's just
For once I envy Kanye West...also on musicians' girlfriends...?
...and it's probably the only time too.
She looks so hot and tough.
Also does anyone else get sick of the hate thrown at the girlfriends of musicians or actors? I mean we have things like Ono being blamed for the Beatles' breakup when it probably wasn't her fault in the first place. Anyone else notice this?

mmm...
im pretty sure you're right on ONO. yoko o. was definately not the reason. lennon was too chill and freethinking. if he wanted to come to america and be with his gurl, so be it. and he did.
i think maybe the media doesn't like someone, so they're bashful towards them. like thats gonna make Kanye single again, or what? like anyone could walk up and think they'd be big competition for amber rose? HAH!
niiiice.
Dgurl
i like the cigarette
i like the cigarette photo...with the cigarette. remember how hot women can look with a cigarette or cigar in their mouths? (or a piercing on their bottom lip...) they don't even have to smoke it, it's just a picture.
and i think her hair looks great on her :)
I find her nails more
lucky kanye
oh the nails
definetly scared me...there is something about that pic with the mini top...more models with full breasts should do that.
she eats bling...*snickers*.
but yeah..dont have anythin to say about her other than the whole 'kanye-got-a-lesbian' fiasco irked me a little. glad they realized shes, HELLOOOO, BISEXUAL!
Erm, wow. I'd never heard
Erm, wow.
I'd never heard of the woman, but she is amazingly hot. And from this piece, she sounds very sane. Of course, she might be as mad as a box of frogs in real life for all I know.
Amber Rose...
as a
as a smoker, the ciggie definatly doesnt bother me. but it's those red
clawsnails .... no thanks.*show me love*
Flashing. Lights!
*snapping* CORRECT, ADDDress, and let THEM knOw honey!
Damn she is hot! The this is who I am attitude, makes her even hotter!

thats whats up...
She is exactly who she wants to be and doesn't or so far has not compromised who she is for the cameras, publicity or anything else. This makes her very attractive.
When you're done with Kanye
For an intelligent discussion of these photographs...
I don't see why
she even agreed to have her picture taken in a cage the first place, maybe money talks. The cage thing is more of a turn off vs smoking.
"Come On Then Get These Good Done Debbies"
WOW
Was what I thought when I saw her with Kanye West in a magazine. I loved her shaved hair.As for the first picture in which she is holding a cigarette- I love that look. Annie Lenox sprung to mind. Reminds me, I should buy a good suit =p
LOL...are yall for real...?
