    The music industry has transformed since the beginning of your career. This is really your first album to be released in the “download era”. How you feel about that and are you worried?

  2. Paul May 6, 2010

    You’re generally considered an R&B icon because of your clear influence on so many of todays singers. Which artists remind you of yourself??

  3. Paul May 6, 2010

    This is your first album to not feature any collaborations with Babyface. Why is that?

  4. SeanyBhoy May 6, 2010

    will you be touring the uk?

  5. eatme4myopinionbitches!!! May 6, 2010

    Is your change in appearance with special reference to the hair cut an effort to keep up with the younger generation?

    Are the rumours of you and Trey Songz true?

    Did you decide to put out another album before or after your reemergence on the scene after ‘Dancing WithThe Stars”?

    Which female artist do you consider successful, in what aspect do you consider them successful?

    Which female artists do you think are considered overrated/underrated and why?

  6. akessey May 6, 2010

    How do you feel about the -so far -lukewarm reception for “Pulse” in the US, despite all the (great) promotional efforts you did for the release?

    What will be the next single after “Hands Tied”?

  7. trose May 6, 2010

    What is her favorite song off the alb um?

    is she satisfied with the promotional effort from atlantic?

    does she feel the reason the album didnt debut so high was because they released it so long after” Yesterday” steam had died…why was that?

  8. channelexor May 6, 2010

    Why wasn’t “MELT LIKE AN ICEBERG” wasn’t on the album?
    WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT SINGLE AFTER MAKE MY HEART HAND’S TIED? YOU SHOULD RELEASE “IF I HAVE TO WAIT”.

  9. Raf May 6, 2010

    How come songs like “I Hate Love” and “Save Me” didn’t make the cut for the new album? They are AMAZING! Please release them in a re-release or something.

  10. Tony May 6, 2010

    Of all the females that came out during your era, use one word to describe each. Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, Kelly Price, Tamia, and Deborah C**.

    What females in the industry would you like to do a duet with?

    Do you feel like you get your just due considering how long you have been in the industry?

  11. Diego Borges May 6, 2010

    Are you afraid that your new job does not sell? Already has provision for a new job?

    Do not you think that all this delay (five years) will hinder sales of your CD ?

  12. FUSION May 6, 2010

    Are you planning a tour of any sort?

    Would you ever consider another stint in Vegas?

    Are there any other females you would like to do a joint tour with?

    Why did u diss whitney in your interview with r*****? You have enraged a ton of Whitney fans all over the world. Whitney has never commented on any other artists, so why would u feel the need to do that especially as you’ve stated that you admire her so much/

  15. …. May 6, 2010

    Ask her what she thinks of beyonce?

  16. s0nny May 6, 2010

    What will be the follow-up single to Yesterday, in the UK?
    Whats happening with the remix of ‘Lookin’ At Me’ Feat. Seasn Paul?
    Are you going to be touring in Europe/UK?
    Is the Alicia Keys live duet in planning stages or is it just an idea?
    Has the ‘Why Won’t You Love Me’ remix with Usher been recorded?
    -will it be recorded?

  17. Caio Arthur May 6, 2010

    Toni, do you plan on coming to Brazil, after you had to cancel the shows last year? ( I already dah my ticket…) We´re waiting for you!
    And why “Caught” and “Melt” didn´t make the cut? I love them both!!
    Kisses

  18. Carlitos May 6, 2010

    SHE NEVER F****** DISSED WHITNEY HOUSTON! SHE STATED THE FACTS, DUMB ASS! SHE SAID IF YOU’RE GOING TO DO A TOUR, MAKE SURE YOUR VOICE IS WELL MAINTAINED. SHE NEVER STATED THAT SHE DOESN’T SING GOOD. GET IT THE F*** TOGETHER.

  19. Caio Arthur May 6, 2010

    Toni, why Caught and Melt didn´t make the cut? I love them both!
    Do you plan on coming to Brazil, after you had to cancel last year? I already had the ticket… ://
    We´re waiting for you!

  20. Allure May 6, 2010

    I can say that her career is officially close to being finished now that she is actually going to be interviewed by Sam and Trent. Smh

  21. bbbbb May 6, 2010

    Would you consider collaborating with Beyonce? You and her are among the best vocalists out there nowadays.

  22. Chris May 6, 2010

    You’ve tonnes of hits- have you passed on any songs that have gone on to become hits?

    Vocally you seem stronger than ever- how do you keep your pipes on top form?

    Do you have any plans to return to acting?

    Were you really not a fan of your More Than A Woman album?

  23. exposed May 6, 2010

    WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN MIND CAREER WISE NOW THAT YOUR ALBUM IS AN EXPECTED FAIL? DO YOU FEAR BEING DROPPED AGAIN? WHAT IS YOUR CAREER PLAN #2?

  24. noah May 6, 2010

  25. X May 7, 2010

    – What is her favorite song on Pulse?
    – What is going to be the next single?
    – What does she think about all the leaks?
    – Was Get Loose or Melt (Like An Iceberg) initially going to be the 1st single?
    – What other artists does she admire and want to work with sometime in the future?

    Tell her she has fans all across the globe, even in Norway! 😛

  26. X May 7, 2010

    Does she read her replies on Twitter?

  27. Diane May 7, 2010

    Ask Toni why she came foul on Whitney during the R**** interview? Specifically, ask whether her comment was necessary and what is her relationship like with Whitney.

  28. channelexor May 8, 2010

    ASK HER IF WILL WE EVER SEE THE FULL LENGTH VIDEO FOR “MAYBE” VIDEO???

  29. Last Boy on Earth May 8, 2010

    @allure
    so true, this is a curse

  30. Kev May 8, 2010

    I like Paul’s question: Who reminds you of yourself in the music industry today?
    What is the next single after Hands Tied?

  31. derek May 8, 2010

    Will you be releasing Why wont you love me as a single seeing as though everyone loves it, I can see a wonderful video for that one

  32. BLEE May 8, 2010

    Question for Toni Braxton,
    You had such chemistry with Babyface, why did you guys stop working together? and will you two come together one day to make another album?

  33. Amy Green May 8, 2010

    Dear Toni, I’ve always wanted to see you in a full-length concert. Will you release one on DVD, and will we ever get to see your Vegas show or your performance as ‘Belle’ on a DVD or a CD recording? ForeverToniFan!

  34. Scorpioglobal May 8, 2010

    Dear toni,
    would you consider holding a concert in dubai to benefit the local autism center, they are very interested in holding such an event. And personally, i would love to finally be able to see one of your concerts 🙂

    The album is amazing, do you think woman could be the next single, it’s amazing!

    Thank You

  35. Sevenir Júnior May 8, 2010

    Hi Toni, I’m a brazilian guy and a great fan of yours, i’d like to hear from you if there is any possibility to visit Brazil to promote her new CD? By the way I loved.

  36. Nando Escribano May 8, 2010

    Your voice is so s*** and so deep… also in spanish! You recorded a few months ago “AYER”, the spanish version of Yesterday. Where is it?? 🙁 Muchos besos desde Barcelona.

    As you probably know, most of Mariah Carey fans are Toni fans too so the question is easy: When will you sing with her?? That should happen! Besos from Barcelona.

    I am so so happy with this album! If I Have To Wait, Woman, WWYLM, MMH, wow!! Will you promote the album in Europe? When will be out in Spain?? Besos from Barcelona.

  37. Kahzee May 8, 2010

    You and Christina Aguilera have great voices. You should work together. Love when you guys did the Superbowl performance and that look in your face at the end..priceless! =) When are you going to do Oprah. It’s waaaaaaay over due. Full on mini concert with the interview and all! LOL

    P.S. I already follow on twitter so I’ll see you then. Oh, and I’m going to try to get my pals Dzemil [not Dezmil] and Jai Brandon to get me a ticket or something for my birthday on July 25. A Toni Braxton Concert could be my first and it would be so worth it! That’s my birthday wish! =)

  38. Diane May 8, 2010

    Ask Toni why she felt the need to make negative comments about Whitney during the R**** interview. Regardless of how she felt, as an artist, who fronts like she is Whitney’s friend, her comment simply was not necessary. If Toni thinks her pipes are cleaner than Whitney’s, then we will be expecting an international tour and a number one debut album. Remember this Toni, Whitney was a headlining performer on DWTS, she wasn’t a contestant.

  39. Nadim May 8, 2010

    Is it hard to let go of songs your pour your heart and soul into like “Get Loose” & “I Hate Love” after they leak and you realize they are unsusable for your album?

  40. Nadim May 8, 2010

    Why did you not include songs such as “Get Loose”, “Melt”, and “I Hate Love” when every other song on your album also leaked? Were they considered weaker?

  41. Rory Arnold May 8, 2010

    MELT is such a fan favorite, why did it not make the album??????????

  42. Reina May 8, 2010

    CTFU@Diane,u really got Toni together with that

  43. georgemanumua@hotmail.com May 8, 2010

    Hi there Toni, I am a big fan of yours, and have been since your beginning.. Would you consider a duet with Mariah Carey seeming you two are both one of the few BIG vocalists nowadays? And have you got her latest album “Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel”? thank you .. LOVE you long time. x

  44. C-mo May 8, 2010

    What have been your inspirations for this album/new look?

    What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

  45. Layz May 9, 2010

    when you was working with trey songz was you ever attracted to him in anny way,, like did think he was fit.

  46. Theo May 9, 2010

    Of the new generation, who are some your favorite female singers?

  47. Willy Wang May 9, 2010

    – Are u working with Darkchild again?! I want that HE WAN’T MAN ENOUGH magic again! give me some uptempo & s*** like that to dance!

    – I remember that when HE WAN’T MAN ENOUGH came out, u said it’s fun to dance but not trying to compete with Janet. but would u consider to do a dance record with Janet & even make a video for it?! ’cause Ur dancing is getting better & better! it would be great to see that happening! or u two making a s*** babay-making song!

    – what happened to the the track that u & Robin Thicke did?! I need some S** THERAPY from u & Robin 2gether 😀

    – While HANDS TIED getting so much love from Urban AC, would you send it over to Urban Mainstream ?! fans would like to see u make a comeback. but Urban AC is a very very small market for you to shine. please send HANDS TIED to Urban mainstream well. and MAKE MY HEART to CHR/Pop & Rhythmic.

    – I heard that Woman is supposed to be a duet between u & Alicia Keys, Why Won’t You Love Me with Usher. but those two versions aren’t on the album. are you going to re-release the album with the songs?! If there’s a plan for re-release, please get GET LOOSE on the album, that song is a KILLER!

  48. Steven May 9, 2010

    How come you’re happy to travel to the UK to do promo but won’t play a live show? You’ve got a solid fanbase over here and could easily sell out. Are there any plans to tour this album in the UK?

  49. Willy Wang May 9, 2010

    – what is the next single?! Wardrobe , Woman, Why Won’t You Love Me are all great single material! but too bad that there’re no strong uptempo songs. would love to get HE WASN’T MAN ENOUGH vibe again 🙂

  50. Teflon Boy May 9, 2010

    Could you ask her what the status is regarding her upcoming reality show featuring her mom and sisters? Many feel Monica’s recent success is due to her increased tv presence via her ‘Still Standing’ reality show… if Pulse does not perform as you would hope would you consider using the reality show format to increase anticipation for your next album. Lastly, I think it would suit her to not wait too long to put out Pulse’s follow-up album, how does she feel about that?

  51. Willy Wang May 10, 2010

    what happened between you & LA Reid? would u consider to work with him & Babyface again?! BTW, I would really LOVE for u to work with Jimmy & Terry!

  52. Jennifer May 10, 2010

    Soooo glad to hear your voice again! I’ve been a fan since your debut when I was in high school.

    1. Let me state the obvious: Millions of people find you beautiful and very s***, myself included. We always see or hear about how male entertainers handle that intense erotic energy from fans (sometimes wishing we hadn’t seen…LOL). Creepy folks notwithstanding, HOW DO FEEL AS A WOMAN KNOWING THAT SO MANY PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU WITH DESIRE? Is it embarrassing or energizing or both? Has anyone done something really memorable to try to get close to you?

    2. I’m a female PK too! And I’ve always felt the reason I love music so much is that it allows you the same type of spiritual ecstasy that I feel in church. But that esctasy is the same reason secular music is problemmatic for many religious individuals. DID YOU EVER STRUGGLE WITH SINGING R&B/POP MUSIC BASED ON YOUR BACKGROUND?

    Good luck with everything, Ms. Braxton. I certainly hope you tour because I was a broke HS & College student when the first three albums dropped. I can be there now. ‘Pulse’ album is on constant repeat!
