“I have so much to be thankful for, and I take nothing for granted. This includes life itself.” -Cynthia Bailey.. watch “Kenya Moore: Her Painful Past Before Becoming a Real Housewife” NEXT ua-cam.com/video/Q1E8dtQ28pM/v-deo.html
I will watch this, but I just finished the one on Pearle Bailey and I'm currently watching the one on Shelia Guyse, which inspired me to suggest if you could look into Sarah Vaughan and/or Dinah Washington? Sarah Vaughan was an iconic singer of her time. I am just writing it here to try to catch your eye since you just loaded this video 😂. Thanks!
Naw Peter took away from her legacy 😂 glad she got rid of him I thought they were good together until we all found out what he really was doing behind her back 😂
There were many people that didn’t know of her until the show….. and considering she did an amazing job at remaining classy throughout its entirety, I feel her true reputation is intact.
It’s me I’m ppl! Didn’t know her until the show. Her reputation is still intact despite others going down being involved on the show. Love me some Cynthia
Does anyone remember the episode on Rhoa, when she announced she had dated RUSSELL SIMMONS? IF so, then you will remember when she,went to his office, AND HE REMEMBERED NONE OF THIS, HARDLY REMEMBERED HER. JUST SAYING
Cynthia was always gorgeous! Such a natural beauty! And I love how she remained classy on the housewives. They tried to call her boring bc she wasn't with the drama but she was always a class act! But yes I agree, she was bigger than the show.
Yes she was my beauty role model she doesn’t get the respect or recognition she deserves , so thank you. Cynthia was one of our first darker skinned toned beauty icons. 😊🙏🏽👏🏽❤️.
Doesn’t matter the legacy because legacy doesn’t pay the bills and RHOA does. She was reduced to modeling moo-moos before RHOA. RHOA shows that she is able to transcend and change for each generation. Now that’s legacy!
Now that’s real talk. Legacy and getting your bills paid are two different things. She made her modeling money years ago--things change-models age out and get less gigs. People always pick out people that they remember from childhood and expect them to still be living off of 80s and 90s money, and then has the nerve to be shocked when their star dies in poverty because that person was ashamed of taking a regular job. This mode of thinking is about keeping people in a box type of fantasy. It is not reality. Good for Cynthia in making a new bag and creating generational wealth.
Housewives did cheapen her because she’s soooo accomplished. But, she used the platform to come up and I’m proud of her for that. I love Cynthia and hope that she continues to rise. She’s entirely too classy for the ratchetness of reality TV. Thanks for this video. People need to know about her.
See I think housewives helped her in some aspects . And she didn’t really do anything that she has to be embarrassed of she always remained a lady and classy she was never really acting ratchet on tv. And housewives had such a big platform and the checks were nice so I don’t blame her for doing it . Especially when she first joined her and Peter were having money troubles so she had to do something but I think housewives is a better show than most reality shows .
Yeah, I've never seen her before RHOA. She is beautiful though, stunningly so! I followed the models of the 80's/90's too. I don't ever remember RHOA being classy. Imo
Cynthia is stunning! The first time I heard of Cynthia was through RHOA. Although I stopped watching a long time ago, I thought she didn't fit in with the messiness of the other cast members. 🖤🖤🖤 I don't see Beyonce or Janet doing housewives, but if they did I think viewership would increase significantly.
Love, love love Cynthia and her modeling career…. Happy to see you’ve done a video on her! Stephanie Roberts, Karen Alexander, or Gail O’Neal would be some great candidates to do a video on next!?
Girl, I love you BUT..Even 90's models need a paycheck....come on,Beyonce can live off her first solo album alone...forever...she's held her own on there housewives,she's due complete respect for keeping the money Rollin in...she's still a goddess💚
Putting anybody on RH "exposes" who they really are as people, and that's good to know because most of the so-called icons gives us a wrong impression of who they really are.. . and yet we are all the same... Let's be real 🙌
Cynthia absolutely was and still is gorgeous. I agree she was too classy for housewives but it did give her exposure. I also thought Kim Fields was too classy for the show and she made sure she got out of there. Blessings always to Cynthia
Thanks Karrine ❤😍😍😍😍 I love Cynthia & it’s good she did housewives because that’s how I discovered her. She’s so graceful & a class act. An awesome role model for young ladies & models. You’ve never heard anything scandals around Cynthia except Peter 😂😂😂. Thank you for the video ❤
Cynthia Bailey is so Gorgeous ❤ still today! This my first time hearing about her being a fashion model i just thought she started on house wives reality shows thank you karrine for sharing Cynthia Bailey story❤
@2:20 You're right. The Housewives franchise was more classy in the beginning, but now it is garbage. Cynthia Bailey is one of my favorite models of the 90's. Beautiful 😍
I totally agree RHOA and the other franchises degrades the women.I call it the BRAVO CURSE. Andy wants to degrade the women and cause conflict for $$$. When the drama ceases they fire the women or put the woman on "PAUSE" forever. Cynthia Bailey was the prize and class act of Bravo.
I remember the first time I saw Cynthia on a huge blowup of just her face at the Fashion Fair makeup counter. I was floored by her beauty. As a young black girl back then you didn't see black models in the makeup section before Cynthia. At least not in my area. I agree she's too classy for RHOA. Kenya as well. Both are gorgeous beauties. 🖤🖤🖤
I absolutely love her cheek bones too I have high cheek bones and I used to get bullied but I realized it was just jealousy. And omg if Beyonce or Janet Jackson were on Housewives their image will be absolutely tarnished just my opinion and by the way Karine I love your cheek bones❤❤❤❤
I know what you mean Karine. That's how I felt when Kim Fields joined RHOA. I was like Tootie Kim Fields? Regine smooches Kim Fields? I was glad when she left because she's above that... I don't like what they all go through for storylines😊
I agree, I would not like to see Ms Bailey do anymore reality shows. I wouldn't even like to see Rosie Perez doing any reality shows! However, I would like to see Cynthia do a talk show and highlight fashion on red carpet events. I would even like to see her do something with her daughter. What about her relationship with Leon? 🖤
@KarineAlourde I'm so glad that I located this channel I'm enjoying it immensely😊. Have you done anything on Eva Marcelle, Tia Mowry-Hardrict, Tamara Mowry-Housely, or Hill Harper?
I think the older cynthia got the better she looked she aged so beautifully . On RHOA their was an episode where it was her and Eva Marcelle and they both strutted their stuff and cynthia is a lot older than Eva as well but everyone agreed cynthia did better and just looked better modeling she showed that young one how it’s done. ❤❤❤❤

Make a review on Beverly Johnson 😊
You spelled Russell wrong.
I liked Kenya Moore ( the black barbie) before housewives. She was so evil, she really changed my opinion.
I agree housewives takes away from the legacy. She is a classy woman but housewives can be ratchet at times
It's called being multidimensional.
And The Other Housewives Treated Her Terribly And Took Advantage Of Her Introvert And Kind Personality. They Picked On Her Quite A Bit.
Naw Peter took away from her legacy 😂 glad she got rid of him I thought they were good together until we all found out what he really was doing behind her back 😂
It’s degrading
Amen!
There were many people that didn’t know of her until the show….. and considering she did an amazing job at remaining classy throughout its entirety, I feel her true reputation is intact.
It’s me I’m ppl! Didn’t know her until the show. Her reputation is still intact despite others going down being involved on the show. Love me some Cynthia
@@RoundthewayroseSame here I didn’t know her too.
She was a known model kinda Naomi knows hee
Exactly because I didn’t know who she was until housewives, and she did remain classy!
It appears, the older she got, the more beautiful she became.
She’s so humble, I had no idea she was such a huge model to that extent! And she somehow looks different in every photo, that’s really cool.
Does anyone remember the episode on Rhoa, when she announced she had dated RUSSELL SIMMONS? IF so, then you will remember when she,went to his office, AND HE REMEMBERED NONE OF THIS, HARDLY REMEMBERED HER. JUST SAYING
What they dated he said they dated … what episode were u watchin
I met Cynthia a few years ago. She is beautiful in person and was so sweet to take a picture.
Cynthia was always gorgeous! Such a natural beauty! And I love how she remained classy on the housewives. They tried to call her boring bc she wasn't with the drama but she was always a class act! But yes I agree, she was bigger than the show.
I agree she should stay away from the housewives series and do something else. She’s too beautiful and classy for reality tv.🖤
She also has bills lol.
Cynthia is definitely one of my favorite models. She's GORGEOUS!!!🖤🖤🖤
I agree Karine,her cheekbones are insane.I think she's very beautiful.Didn't know about her until the Housewives.
Yes she was my beauty role model she doesn’t get the respect or recognition she deserves , so thank you. Cynthia was one of our first darker skinned toned beauty icons. 😊🙏🏽👏🏽❤️.
Cynthia stayed in Essence magazine in the 90s
Doesn’t matter the legacy because legacy doesn’t pay the bills and RHOA does. She was reduced to modeling moo-moos before RHOA. RHOA shows that she is able to transcend and change for each generation. Now that’s legacy!
@@KamuSaladi big shirt dresses. Google it
Exactly and good sense.
@@KamuSaladiit’s like a night gown/ housedress type dress. It’s loose fitting and it actually originates from Hawaiian culture.

I didn't realize until this video how much her daughter looks like her Cynthia is one of my faves❤
Love her classy demeanor 🖤
I didn't even know about her until I started watching Real Housewives. I use to follow other models like Iman and Beverly Johnson etc.
Yeah, I've never seen her before RHOA. She is beautiful though, stunningly so! I followed the models of the 80's/90's too. I don't ever remember RHOA being classy. Imo
Same for me
I love that Bob haircut that framed her face.🤌🏼
How did you miss Leon (From Five Heartbeats)? She was with him for years.
This was great. You did not touch on her relationship with Leon, Noel’s father. 😊
I feel the same way about Stacy Dash being on this show called College Hill with people that never been to college
I was not feeling it when Kim Fields/Tuti did a season of housewives , so I agree with you , but they have to earn a living .
CYNTHIA BAILEY IS BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT AND SHE IS SUCH A LEGEND IN HER OWN RIGHT!!🤩🤎💃
Wait a second-how did you skip the relationship of them all which produced her daughter? I was waiting for it the whole video. 🤣😩
I love miss Cynthia Bailey ❤
She’s a chameleon & gorgeous with pixie cut, it brings out her distinctive cheekbones ❤
Your brother's music is so beautiful ✨
Cynthia is stunning! The first time I heard of Cynthia was through RHOA. Although I stopped watching a long time ago, I thought she didn't fit in with the messiness of the other cast members. 🖤🖤🖤
I don't see Beyonce or Janet doing housewives, but if they did I think viewership would increase significantly.
Agreed they have tooooo much money , and stature .
Cynthia isn’t working on the real housewives of Atlanta anymore, she’s just a friend of the show.
Love, love love Cynthia and her modeling career…. Happy to see you’ve done a video on her! Stephanie Roberts, Karen Alexander, or Gail O’Neal would be some great candidates to do a video on next!?
I agree she's above housewives. She has so many avenues to explore which you already highlighted 😊
I agree w all u said about Cynthia ❤❤❤she needs to keep modeling or teaching modeling😊 she is everything
Girl, I love you BUT..Even 90's models need a paycheck....come on,Beyonce can live off her first solo album alone...forever...she's held her own on there housewives,she's due complete respect for keeping the money Rollin in...she's still a goddess💚
Thank you for making video about her always been curious about her past sometimes i used to get her and actress joy bryant confused years ago
Good Afternoon. Joy Bryant has a lighter complexion than Cynthia Bailey.
Putting anybody on RH "exposes" who they really are as people, and that's good to know because most of the so-called icons gives us a wrong impression of who they really are.. . and yet we are all the same... Let's be real 🙌
Cynthia absolutely was and still is gorgeous. I agree she was too classy for housewives but it did give her exposure. I also thought Kim Fields was too classy for the show and she made sure she got out of there.
Blessings always to Cynthia

Your research and REPORTING is impressive and brilliantly covered. Plus ,your word play is super supoortive to the subjects you cover.
Glad I don't watch Real Housewives. Cynthia Bailey is lovely. Nice to know of her from before her RH days. ❤🖤
Great photos of Bailey!!! Thanks!
Cynthia Bailey is so Gorgeous ❤ still today! This my first time hearing about her being a fashion model i just thought she started on house wives reality shows thank you karrine for sharing Cynthia Bailey story❤
I never looked at Whitney Houston the same after her reality show.
You’re absolutely correct!!! I never thought about that what a deep perspective.
Karine, I always enjoy your presentation!😊
She is so beautiful and her cheekbones are to die for.
@2:20 You're right. The Housewives franchise was more classy in the beginning, but now it is garbage. Cynthia Bailey is one of my favorite models of the 90's. Beautiful 😍

I agree she's too classy for RHOA. Kenya as well. Both are gorgeous beauties. 🖤🖤🖤
Kenya doesn't have any class. She is a phoney ratchet person.
She is so pretty she was one of my favorite people on the show because she so chill
I know her way b4 the "house" show !! Shes so classy❤
Leon whew Chile that was a fine one too
Thanks for this
I love miss Bailey
Great Video - Could you please do a video on Nancy Wilson and Leslie Uggams. Thank you
I was mesmerized by the photos. Great video. Love Cynthia! How did you skip over her relationship with Leon though?!!
What beautiful photos... she's just stunning!!! 😍😌💯
I love your channel Karine. You're very entertaining.
Stunning
I always loved her she has a good soul and well let me state the obvious she's absolutely stunning
I love your videos. Would you please do one on Polly Adler?
I absolutely love her cheek bones too I have high cheek bones and I used to get bullied but I realized it was just jealousy. And omg if Beyonce or Janet Jackson were on Housewives their image will be absolutely tarnished just my opinion and by the way Karine I love your cheek bones❤❤❤❤
Did you forget to mention Leon?
Absolutely beautiful ❤️
Great commentary ❤I thought you we’re going to mention her relationship with actor Leon
She rejected Russell Simmons and Leon proposals for broke Peter Thomas I’ll never understand
💀💀💀
@@KarineAlourde babe they had money and status I was rooting for her and Leon!!!!
@@Lynn_Shae0915and Leon was handsome too 👀
She don't do dusty. High standards. Did you not hear about Perter n bar 1?
@@ariahsavagesavageyeah he had money but I believe had some trouble around his second season on the show
I would love to see you do a video on Victoria Principal. I think her story and career is very fascinating.
She still look gorgeous.
I had no idea that’s who she was/is
She was always a class act even when she was on a show that really tries to portray a coming up but can be degrading on so many levels.
Music is so nice.
I would love for you to do Loretta Devine
Fix-a-Flat Porsha had a lot of nerves to be talking about Cynthia's botox usage!
I know what you mean Karine. That's how I felt when Kim Fields joined RHOA. I was like Tootie Kim Fields? Regine smooches Kim Fields? I was glad when she left because she's above that... I don't like what they all go through for storylines😊
Thanks for this. I knew she was a model but its so hard to see her work, especially runway. She looks stunning at 2:10
I believe you are" spot" on.Nothing further to add what you have stated.
She’s so pretty and she seems to have a gentle aura about her ❤
High cheekbone clique stand up!!
I feel it takes away from their legacy.
No really she stand out no matter what she does
Yes she’s still a Beauty!! Can you also feature Wanakee Pugh ?
Great article.
I agree; it takes away the mystique of being a classy lady.🖤
I didnt know about her at all! Job well done!
I keep having to check my settings to see what the playback speed is set to because Karine is speaking so fast🤭
I agree, I would not like to see Ms Bailey do anymore reality shows. I wouldn't even like to see Rosie Perez doing any reality shows! However, I would like to see Cynthia do a talk show and highlight fashion on red carpet events.
I would even like to see her do something with her daughter.
What about her relationship with Leon?
🖤
Are you sure she is 56 now? Wow, she looks STUNNING! I love the 90's fashion and she was certainly the IT girl!
Absolutely gorgeous ❤
you're absolutely right about the housewives shows.
Too Beautiful for Drama! Have you review Dania Guiara yet? Would you plz?
@KarineAlourde
I'm so glad that I located this channel I'm enjoying it immensely😊.
Have you done anything on Eva Marcelle, Tia Mowry-Hardrict, Tamara Mowry-Housely, or Hill Harper?
I remember growing up and seeing her in magazines! I always thought she was so beautiful & I use to just gaze at her!! She’s beautiful 😻
This was a good video. I feel like RHOA really helped Cynthia Bailey’s career.
Yes. She's known now
Oh yes, I understand and hear you on possible endeavors for Cynthia. I think she's had her feel of the RHOA too... like it has served its purpose.
Did you totally skip over her relationship with Noelles Dad???
@Karine Alourde, I feel you lil' Sis! ❤️
Cynthia Bailey before the real housewives is so interesting to me tbh within her modeling career and come up thx for this vidoe
I love your videos. Would you consider doing one about Tais Arau of Brazil? I might be spelling her name wrong.
I miss Heavy D
I think the older cynthia got the better she looked she aged so beautifully . On RHOA their was an episode where it was her and Eva Marcelle and they both strutted their stuff and cynthia is a lot older than Eva as well but everyone agreed cynthia did better and just looked better modeling she showed that young one how it’s done. ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful music 🎶 🎵 👌 ❤
2:22 so true. It used to be so luxurious and glamorous.
Cynthia Bailey is amazing ❤
