Hot Shot: Trina Debuts New Red Hair

Published: Thursday 14th Oct 2010 by Sam

It seems Rihanna‘s candy-coloured hair-do is inspiring more than just Shawntae and Mae-Mae in your local hood. Rapper Trina recently revealed a look which was clearly inspired by the Bajan model’s latest gimmick.

As much as we support Trina, she’s increasingly becoming quite synonymous with the term ‘unoriginal’ these days. From the faux-Beyonce steez in ‘That’s My Attitude’ video, to this red do’ – it’s all a bit much. I mean there’s no denying she looks good. Great in fact. However, in such an image-focal industry, her copy and pasting, isn’t a good look.

Your thoughts?

    what the hell is that around her neck? it looks like she’s wearing a bedazzled florescent light bulb. her hard make up gives her a dragish NeNe Leakes look. Major fail, dust yourself off and try again.

    she may be copying people but, honestly, she looks way better than Rihanna… it’s not bright and obnoxious like Rihanna’s hair color is. i think it looks nice =]

    A F****** RIHANNA COPYCAT !! Trina’s got NO PERSONALITY AT ALL !! First, she copied Rihanna’s 2007 look, and now that !! And don’t forget the one clearly taken from Rih’s paranoid video !! A HOT BOILING MESS !!

    She looks better than RiRi does, but its still lame for her to be a copy cat. SMH

    The hair is the least of the issues going on here. However, makeup is flawless

    OK Sam, Rihanna didn’t invent red hair. I remember Mary rocking the red hair back in the 90s, and Trina hair looks 10 times better than that mop on Rihana’s head

    Trina just tries way too hard! She is and has been for a while very unoriginal. She’s even said in one song, “…Money like Mariah, Rihanna hair-do”

    Red hair isn’t for her. Rihanna can pull it off because she has an edgier style and can basically rock anything and make it look better because of her model-esque look. But Trina? Um, no ma’am.

    I liked Trina so much better when she was underground, in her Slip N Slide days, her first album, better flow and lyrics. The “Baddest Chick” days, the “Pull Over” days, the ‘You don’t know NANN” days! Now she tries to do more crossover ish with a female singer on the hook (Kelly Rowland, Keyshia Cole, Keri Hilson, etc.). Her flow is HORRIBLE on the slower/mid-tempo songs, not to mention her lyrics have downgraded tremendously!

    @ annie you are a damn liar that hair color is the exact color of rihanna’s hair. You see what you wanna see. ITs obvious that trina loves ri ri, and she even said it herself in an interview. I ain’t mad at her, cause I love me some trina too. Its great that trina is supporting our home girl by co signing on the hair color that everyone claims they hate. Go trina and RI RI. Lets see who else will join the red hair club.

    “OK Sam, Rihanna didn’t invent red hair. I remember Mary rocking the red hair back in the 90s, and Trina hair looks 10 times better than that mop on Rihana’s head”

    …Basically….These Premature Blog Sites kill me saying the dumbest s***….I recall Mary…T-Boz…Kelly Rowland and countless others Rocking red hair….Rihanna is not the 1st sp please kill that b*******……

    Secondally…Rihanna wants to be Grace Jones…She is confused…When Her Dark-Sided s*** FLOPS she goes back to “Little Miss Sunshine” H** please….All she has is her Fashion and that’s it….She will never EVER BE REMEBERED for her Music 🙂

    @annie if trina’s pic was taken at the same angle it would be the same color. You are reaching,. Anywhoo, they both are wearing it well. We don’t care if you don’t like them. They are both stars living the high life while you are where? On tgj hating. Your opinion will not stop their progress.

    No…beter yet…Hell Naw! I bet you a C-Note the carpet don’t match the curtains! This is a Dade County Kitchen job from her cousin who been in cosmotology school forever and still aint got her license. I’m going to not pray for the usual….peace….health…but that Katrina Laverne takes off that damn wig and uses it to …scratch that …just throw that cheap Vietnemese wig shop purchase away. Ok, enough clowning….on the other side Trina’s face and body look like somebody worked on her for a good 2 hours! She is beautiful, but that damn wig! I know hood rats that wouldn’t wear that to the swap meet! Bye Trina!

    Regardless of who else currently has Red Hair albeit that it’s not Copy written by anyone I actually like the hair color on her! She looks pretty here.

  29. truthfully October 15, 2010

    “I mean there’s no denying she looks good. Great in fact”

    I deny it, yet rihanna looks like a rag doll….hmmm biased much.

  30. Xgirlfriend October 15, 2010

    Rihanna must be so pissed lol. First her over the top architectural style got copied by Gaga and Beyonce. And when she tries to differentiate from the pack with her red hair this b**** goes copying her in no time lolllll.

  31. True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue October 15, 2010

    ^^^ Didn’t Riyodel copy these two rather than the other way around as you imply? You must have gotten your timeline mixed up. Anyways, Riyodel did NOT invent red hair, and it is insane to assume that any famous black person who dyes their hair red MUST be copying Riyodel. Please, if Riyodel was really that relevant enough to swagger-jack from, then she wouldn’t be struggling to remain successful right now. TONS of women having rocking red hair way before Riyodel was a blip on anyone’s radar. Mary J. Blige, Eve, Kelis, Lil Kim, Kelly Rowland, Faith Evans (it is practically her signature), Ciara, I could go on. And in your blatant attempt to try and insult Riyodel, you actually ended up giving her undue importance by crediting her with a style that was not invented by her, hence feeding her delusional stans’ claims that she is “original”. I get that you guys dislike Riyodel, but next time you’re gonna throw shade at her, do so in posts where she is relevant to the subject at hand (as in, she IS actually the subject of the post). Otherwise, please refrain from adding to her stans’ delusions that she is being “hated” on because she’s so great.

    This is not the first time she has copied Rihanna! IF you look at the photos from her comeback she rocked the black asymmetrical cut and punker rock black dresses that Rihanna made popular! I wonder why she is so influenced by Rihanna? Does she think copying her will somehow make us think better of her!?
