Omarion Butches It Up, Debuts New Braid-Free Haircut in Ghana
R&B poptart Omarion heads to Accra, Ghana to perform in the "State Of The Republic" concert. The tight-jeans-wearing former B2K lead singer debuted a few new dance moves and his trademark cornrow braids were noticeably (and thankfully) absent.
It probaby was about time O rocked a new haircut. The braids were cute but the "baby hair" was dated. Oh, but who cares what we think. The big question is, Does Bow Wow like Omarion's new haircut?

I like the braids but it's difficult for Omarion to 'butch it up.' Seriously.

He looks like an adult; I barely recognized him in the photos

I think he looks nice ... it was time to him to start looking like a grown-up and cut those damn braids off. This is a good look for him. Plus, it really puts the focus on how cute his face is.

Handsome...with bubbles.

Nope. Bow Wow does not like the haircut at all. Omarion probably told him that he was thinking of cutting his hair and that lead to the breakup.

I think bubble butted Omarion will look good in a fade. But maybe Bow Wow likes to run his hands through Omarion's hair.

Bow Wow? Omarion has moved on and is with Brian Pumper now. Brian probably wants a lil more thuggish lookin' Omarion so they can be on the DL together.

Awww. I love Omarion's lil fade. He is looking more grown, masculine and sexy.

STOP SAYING BOW WOW AND OMARION ARE A COUPLE!! THEY ARE STRAIGHT!!!!
Posted by: VERONICA | 25 July 2008 at 14:40
SHOW SOME PROOF OR STFU!!!
Posted by: VERONICA | 25 July 2008 at 14:41
Uhm...Veronica honey...one might ask you to do the same.
Posted by: Bernie | 25 July 2008 at 14:56
Veronica, umm, sweety. Sure, they are straight. Going STRAIGHT to the next man's bed.
Posted by: Carl CS | 25 July 2008 at 15:02
VERONICA Okay, I see you're back. This time, play nicely and no all caps, mm'kay?
Posted by: ROD MC | 25 July 2008 at 15:38
Omarion hangs out with the boys in B2K and has underwear parties ... says he has never had a girlfriend .. never been publicly linked to a woman .. loves to shop and be fashionable ... loves working out and wearing tight pants ... and someone asks for proof?
You're right. Omarion sounds as straight as an arrow, major puzzy hound.

Let's get to the REAL story.
OMARION is not very straight.

I like the haircut. It's short and frames his handsome face. A handsome cut for a handsome young man. And yes, he is trying to man up, bless his lil heart. btw, who are the str8 girls? are they from mediatakeout or crunk?

I actually liked the braids. But the shaved and groomed sideburns and baby hair was just too much. I felt like I was back in the seventies. Oh well. Bow Wow won't be able to run his hands through Omarion's long braids any longer.
Posted by: Tony T | 25 July 2008 at 19:30
I am so glad that Omarion finally cut his hair. He looks much more grown and sexy and the cornrolls are sooooo typical butch queen.
Posted by: Artie | 25 July 2008 at 19:51
Am I in the minority? I like the braids and thought they were very sexy.
Posted by: Tyler | 25 July 2008 at 19:55
DR that is NOT proof. Those mean nothing. And Henry you can repeat that line as much as you want. Omarion is a hetro god-fearing young man. No matter how hard you wish, you cannot make him gay. I have nothing against you if you are that way but Omarion is not GAY.
Posted by: Veronica | 25 July 2008 at 21:48
I think Omarion PR helper (Veronica) is just doing her job. It's not a very conviencing one but I do think Omarion should ask for his money back cause she's doing a lousy job.
Veronica, you're fired.
O is gay.
Birds of a feather flocked together.
Posted by: Anti-believer | 25 July 2008 at 22:08
Veronica must be the intern for Omarion's publicist. The poor girl cannot even spell "Hetero." Not that Omarion is. But nice try.
Posted by: ATL KID | 25 July 2008 at 22:24
Veronica, when you die, you will discover, to your complete shock, that God is gay, and that you will be sent to Hell for having had relations with a man.
Take my advice: You need to repent now before it is too late.

I like the braids better, I think a guy with long hair is sexy. If Lloyd cuts his hair I will throw a fit.
