The Harrises Channel the Huxtables


T.I., Tiny and their blended family re-create The Huxtable family portrait for In Touch Magazine...

On the constant comparisons of his family to the fictional TV family starring Bill Cosby as Dr. Cliff Huxtable and Phylicia Rashad as his wife attorney Claire Huxtable T.I. tells In Touch,
“It’s flattering, though I like to think of us as a unique piece of our society! The Huxtables are more conservative, older and from a different environment. But we share unity, strength and prominence.”

Educated thug? I'm just so confused by his vernacular vs I wanna be taken seriously in the hood mentality... Don't get me wrong, I'd hate for him to speak like Waka in the interview but if he is intelligent, he needs to start rapping about intelligent issues not just about shawties and guns...

Really? So when did Cliff get locked up and have most of his kids out of wedlock?

LMAOOOO THE HUXTABLES? SO TINY IS CLAIRE?? WHEN DID CLAIRE HUXTABLE POP E PILLS & SWING WITH HER HUSBAND? & I'M PRETTY SURE CLAIRE WOULDN'T HAVE A BFF LIKE SHEKINAH! I DON'T REMEMBER CLIFF GOING TO PRISON MULTIPLE TIMES EITHER. THEY SHOULD'VE COMPARED THEM TO THE OSBOURNES.

ON A POSITIVE NOTE THE FAMILY PHOTO IS CUTE THOUGH.

Thinking if a episode where Cliff meets a man in a parking lot to buy guns then ends of getting caught. No wait a min there was this episode where Claire and Cliff are riding around with their 2 friends and Cliff makes an illegal turn then cops pull them over only to find that Claire been holding ex pills and car smelling like weed. Wait that shit never happen to them but TI yeah GTFOH!! I can even deal. The dumb shit u did is stuck with u.

Oh HELL NAW. Tiny is a Bubble Lipped Albino Lemur who speaks in Pig Latin. GTFOHWTBS. T.I. is wearing me out with His phony intelligent act. Only one that look Human is the Girl in the Red sweater.

Ms. Lee said...

Umm, the last time I checked, Heathcliff never had any felonies, drug charges, gun charges, rap albums, X-pills or out-of-wedlock children. Clair never wore weave, had a nail shop that she torched for insurance money, nor did Clair have a fake ass. Sandra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa and Rudy full brothers and sisters; no half or step. This is insulting to the Huxtables.

What an insult. They are no where near The Huxtables even on their best day.

That is an insult to what The Huxtables represent: self- respect decency and black pride.

T.I. has terrible genes. He definitely gave away all the ugly he had in them loins. His eldest is the best looking,he should have stopped there. Damoni is ugly as heeelll and he needs an attitude adjustment. The girl has to grow into her looks,right now she looks like a premature Lisa Raye. Dear I say Tiny makes better looking children. Zonnique and Major are better looking versions of her. I have no idea what Kang is or who he belongs too,but he scares the shit outta me. I rest my case,T.I makes ugly kids.

hi.
after reading the comments this morning, I can only assume that someone took a squat over ya breakfast and let loose and you feel some kinda way about it! while im sorry that happened to ya morning, go get another plate or bowl and pause...and pay attention not so much to the messenger, but his message. ok, i've got it; jail, drugs, E, yadda-yadda. but the "message" that he put down was while he would see being compared to the Hux's as a compliment, he DOES notice the differences and he DOES at least display . . ."unity, strength, and prominence". now don’t get what that means to you tangled up into what that means to him for no matter what their get-down is, at least they are business people taking care of their family...eeevveeennn if its in the arena that most feel is for attention slores. they are making it happen for their family. riding the wave of the entertainment industry and clothing. and he is ballin' outta control. he found the "key" and he's using it. gotta respect that. give the dude a break and his wife too. no matter what they do in regard to their personal lives, at least they are handling their business and taking care of their family….even if they may be embarrassing them kinda-sorta…..ok, a bunch.
you dont have to respect the game, but you cant knock or deny his hustle.

@10:11 you right KING i say that all the time where did come from. lol

Anonymous said...

Ummm, somebody REACHING to damn far from reality...BUT, I will agree with Tip about basically bringing something unique to HIP HOP culture, becuz that iz ALL it is. He does a good job of promoting a positive family side of hip hop...mind you, the family is very "decorated" meaning its not "traditional", but its REAL LIFE their household reflects a lot of current BLACK households today, and their unity is motivation for the families that can relate to them to continue moving forward together...because hey...:we ain the only ones putting our kids together from past relationships in a home with us and making an effort to raise them all in a positive enviroment, that includes GOD, marriage, love, and order!!"

That nigga has no choice but to be on tv. Musically the career is over, especially after the gun and drug charges. There is no other outlet for him.

Ok in real life didnt Bill Cosby have a kid outside of his marriage? Phylica Rashad is divorced, and those kids... Well you know the rest. its TV ppl no ones that perfect. Get Real.

dreadee said...

The photo is nice, I can't hate. But Huxtables they are not.

Ms. Lee said...

10:40, Please stay on subject. We're talking about what the FICTIONAL Huxtables represented and STILL represent for Black America, damn.

Anonymous said...

Why compare yourself to a fictional family? Not even remotely close to the Huxtables. @ 10:11, I totally agree with you. Wow, not an attractive family at all. And T.I's music has been garbage ever since he got out of prison the first damn time.

good photo, great message.

would love to see some other celebs take photos with ALL of their children.

Them little boys look weird as fuck..

Nobody is perfect we all go thru things and make mistakes BUT the Harris family is FAAAAAAAARRR from the Huxtables. All them kids had 1 mama, Dr. Huxtable never went to prison and Clair never got popped for giving handjobs w/ a cup full of lean BUT I do admire how they handle the blended family situation (sidenote: Major is a cutie pie!)

This nigga just need to stop already, a few times out of boredom I surfed and saw his show, his interaction with his family is so fake, this man is so emotionally cold his every interaction with this fake ass image of the involved father is such a fucking pathetic joke. his tragic piglet wife with those godawful ass tupperware she lugs around like a damn suitcase is comical, their coked up asses and the oldest daughter obvious lack of interest in the whole charade is comical, whatever the fuck these idiots are smoking they need to throw that shit in the trash, because nobody with two functioning brain is buying this fake ass family man persona he's so desperately pushing. nigga Ray Charles can see through your fakery.

@11:12
shut yo ass up, you clearly are brain dead if you even believe a wiff of this garbage this TMJ sounding nigga is spewing, nigga talk like they done wired his jaw shut, that's all that cocaine got his ass talking and looking Stevie J in the face. sit down niggas!!!

@11:27,Ive said before that his relationship and actions on the show is fake ae hell. We've already met the real T.I. and weak ass Tiny. Her fake ass really hurts my head,why didnt you get the legs to match? From that episode on Tiny and Toya where they were supposed to go out and T.I called and put the fear in Tiny,I knew what was up. King even said he doesnt like the way T.I treats his mom last season. T.I. is an asshole. He is cold and cant act too far from what he is.

is Ray Charles even alive? still LMAO @ Nubian's comment.

@Nubian and @11:43 I have to look at he show a little bit harder b/c i never got that "fake" vibe although I was waiting for them to sneak off and get high on a episode

@ Nubian 11:27AM- I couldn't agree more with your assessment, esp. his fake "stern yet cool father BS act" and some of these deprived clowns just eat it up!! Like all a black guy has to do is pat his offspring on the head and say two words to them and they're Father of The Year. SMDH.

true dat 1:11 I'm often ashamed how gullible some folks can be.

That is one ugly ass family. I think if the girls were in a picture with regular looking people they wouldn't look so weird. It's hard for me to look at those boys. They all look like they have fetal alcohol syndrome, and their mother looks like Miss Piggy. I take that back. Miss Piggy knew how to dress. She looks like Babe the pig, or Wilbur from Charlotte's Web. T.I. really thought light skin was winning for him loll.

in my opinion it's a nice photo and the message it sends about family is good. no doubt in real life they are nothing like the portrayal of the "huxtables," but it's just a family photograph and i like it.

I don't watch the show at all but that is a cute picture of the family and GOD BLESS them also.

The Real Fedup said...

Okay as much as I like the show as pure entertainment, comparing them to the educated Huxatables is comical!

Since when Cliff the doctor was a rapper with multiple baby mommas out of wedlock (prior to marrying his current wife) and went to jail for gun charges?

Since when Clarie the lawyer looked like Missy Piggy and her best friend is a common hood rat who can't speak proper English nor have manners to save her life?
This is an insult to the Huxtables! TI and Tiny are not even close!!!

SO TRUE, BECAUSE UM, ISN'T HIS DAUGHTER'S MOTHER ATTRACTIVE? SUCKS SHE TOOK AFTER DAD, and excuse me, but why does it look like only Tiny and her daughter got the memo that it was picture day.
Both those older boys look like they came straight from recess. WOW at T.I not even trying to get his boys to at least be dapper since they can't be cute.
