I must say big KUDOS to wardrobe and makeup artists on this show. They always have these ladies looking amazing! I love the fact they always change their looks.
My dad named me after Tamera. He saw the show "Sister, Sister" and thought the girls were super sweet. So he named me after one of them. But he spelled it differently.
Well actually it's spelled correctly if you go by the hebrew meaning of this name. in hebrew we have a fruit called "Tamar", (you don't say it like Tay-mar you simply say Tamar) and it means gate, so in Israel for example Tamar and Tamara (which based on the name Tamar that means gate but with an A at the end), is a very popular name for girls..
Roneisha Sanders Lol I feel like the panel either ignored or didn't hear Jeannie's side comment from her Mom. At first, it sounds like Olivia said she wanted to name her Jeannie because she "dreamed her daughter like like the Jeannie", but she actually said she "dreamed her daughter LIGHT like the Jeannie," meaning she wanted her daughter to be more pale like Barbara Eden (the pale, white woman who played the Jeannie on I Dream of Jeannie."
Zemen H I know I’m late to this but Vietnamese moms always spins things negatively, like when I was a child I asked where I came from and she said she picked me up from the garbage. I’m sure Mamma Mai was joking somewhat and she probably saw the show and it was easy to pronounce. My mom said that she didn’t know English very well so she picked the easiest name she could find that began with an L since my father’s name starts with an L from a baby book the nurse gave her.
@@LarryOfilms I know I’m late to this but covering up the clear colorism and implications of what she was saying with Vietnamese moms always spin things to be negative is being tone deaf as hell to the steeping history of colorism within Asia, plus Jennie has always been upfront with these issues and says herself her family is blunt that’s just how they are so what mamma Mai said wasn’t spun
That's so funny that Tamar's name means " date palm; shade". Maybe that's why she's so shady, gotta love her! And there are actually three Tamar's in the bible
This was funny! I swear Ill never get tired of jeanie impersonations. Cause behind closed doors we know me be making fun of the chinese restaurant people .. " shrimp fried rice $5 " lol
My mom got my name from sister sister. She was going to pick Tamara but she said she just picked the short name so it wouldn't be that difficult for me to learn. And from watching the show. Tamara said her middle name is Renee. My middle name is Renee too.
@@jesssandhu9432 It’s not in “EVERY” race, please stop trying to inject yourself into a topic that hurts so many cultures. Thank God I grew up around people who embraced and loved their brown skin
Hearing all their name stories was hilarious😂😂 it’s so interesting to hear how some people got their names. When I was born my parents were still undecided on a name so I didn’t have a name for 2 weeks. Until one day my dad saw some article in the newspaper and said to my mom “hey this girl in the articles name is Melissa I like that” and my mom was like “yea Melissa is pretty let’s go with that”.... here I am 24 years later 😂🤷🏻♀️
4:20. The girl on the right. Her hair. No booboo. Just no. I like Tamar's sense of humour . She never takes herself seriously. and Tamera is so adorable .
Zhane Doe it's called sarcasm. If you regularly watch these clips, they all think Tamera is boring and goody-goody and doesn't know how to have fun just because she has morals and she is a Christian, and they make fun of her for that. So that is why I know that comment was not from a friendly place. It was a backhanded compliment.

+LadyChaos101 it is sad cause I spent some time in India (I'm lightskin) but my dad is dark, and so my skintone shifts esp in the hot boiling Indian weather... I got "dark" there and everyone gave me crap for it :/
It is an unrealistic standard for people due to years of the media's perception and for Asian cultures, to be white means being wealthy and the lighter you are, meaning you're not outside in the sun working hard labour. But times are changing, some Asian cultures have started to take on black style culture.
Quinta B Tamar pronounced Tah-mar means date and happens to be the name of a concubine (which is just a wife that isn't the first one) in one of the biblical stories. Tamarim (plural) are one of the 7 native species of Israel.
Most cultures have colorism issues so her comment wasn't a surprise to me. At this point I'm sure Jeannie takes it as a joke and is now comfortable in the skin she's in. I grew up in a house full of darker skinned people so I was always the pale one. Despite the fact we joked about color my mother always taught us self confidence. Although its different I wouldn't change my skin color for anything because that's how God made me.
tyerra1213 I am well aware of colorism being a global issue but I don't think it should be skimmed over just because she's grown and has gotten over it. To me that doesn't take away from the damage it could have possibly done to her as a little girl, and how that could have largely negatively impacted the way she perceived herself. I think it's a issue whether or not she's overcome it. This is something no one no matter what cultural background should go thru
+A Swaby Noooo, her mother has that serious issue. I am not surprised that Jeannie has insecurities. That is such a disgrace. EVERY culture has an issue with dark skin, very SAD.
+A Swaby Now here is the thing; her mom has an issue with dark skin; but Jeannie's friends were black; her boyfriends were black. She loves the brothers, I am proud of my dark skin, because black don't crack.
My mum is such a huge fan of Grease and she couldn't come up for a name but she one day watched Grease while she was pregnant with me and in the opening of the movie when the name ''''Olivia''' Newton - John came up, thats when she fell in love with the name Olivia. So, I'm kinda names after Sandy.
My mom’s name is Sherry. When my grandma went into the hospital to have my mom, they had not picked out a name yet. After my mom was born my grandma had a roommate and asked that lady what her kids names where. The lady said she had a daughter named Sherry. So my mom got her name from a stranger.
2:04 that one boyfriend dragged there by his girlfriend and clapping to show that he isn’t all dead inside and pretend he didn’t argue with her the whole way there😂😂😂
Why does no one ever call out the colorism and toxicity that Jeanie is describing about her mom??? She's literally saying her mom wished she was light skinned. I know it's what she was raised to think but just an acknowledgment like "but of course now I know that's not really cool" would have been nice. There are young dark skinned Asian girls watching this show and what they'll take away from this is that colorism is funny and not a big deal, and the hurt they feel will be brushed off.
Deidra Marcellus asians (meaning all across asia)are known for admiring ppl with lighter skin they always aspire to be lighter skinned so i think your misinterpretation in agreeing to it as toxicity os really just a culture barrier coz thats normal for them. The original comment calling it toxicity is a misinterpretation of culture differences
ManPursueExcellence it’s all Asians tbh. I’m afghan-American and I was never allowed in the sun before 4 pm lol. It’s our dumb cultural desire to look white when most Asians are dark skinned to begin with
My dad saw my name written on a wall and he thought it sounded pretty so he named me that. My name means someone who is a good friend, as in someone you can confide in. I hope i'm a good friend :)
i got my name becasue my mom heard a hispanic lady at a hospital yelling at her little girl to sit down she went " JOSSELYN SIENTA TE " so my mom went o ill name he josselyn

Oh alright. I see. Arabic for Tamar Tamr تمر (plural) and Tamera Tamra تمرة (singular), which is the Date Palm fruit. My name is Shahd شهد , Arabic for "pure honey". My birth name was however Shahrazad شهرازاد , Persian for "the person whose realm/dominion (شهر šahr) is free (آزاد āzād)". My mother wanted to name me after the character and storyteller in 'One Thousand and One Nights'. She still calls me Shahrazad, so I do go by either one.
I was named after my mom’s best friend Jallale. So when my mom and her were in high school they made a deal to name their first daughters after them. So my mom named me Jalale and she changed the spelling a little bit. But Jallale had 3 boys so she couldn’t name them my moms name which is Gifti.

Tamar means date in Arabic
the fruit or like march the 21st?
fruit
+RUGBYLOVER96 the fruit loool
No it doesn't mean date if her name was Tamr then it's date the food, but her name is TAMAR so when you say it it's not date in Arabic.
+Bayan Al-Qubaie Yes it is, it's a derivation. Like Tamera = Small date. U know?
Jeanie🤣🤣, "when I came out I was dark and she said, this sunshine too dark"
jeanie's impersonations of her mother always crack me up
"This sunshine very dark" loool

I like that Tia and their dad Tim, is just a different letter at the end, and how their mom is named Darlene and Tamera's middle name is Darvette.

Tamar - the fruit "date" in Arabic is actually pronounced TAMR; never knew Tamar or Tamera originated from that. Very interesting.
