Apparently, airing out your dirty laundry on Twitter is the move for 2013. Keyshia Cole has done just that as she called out her sister Neffe for penning a book that doesn’t paint the songstress in the best light. Among other things, Cole is upset with her sister for portraying her as unsupportive to her budding career as an author. Taking to Twitter, Keyshia let everyone know just how she felt about Neffe’s accusations.
“How many of y’all have leaches in your own family? I need to know I’m not alone! B-tch talk about me in ya book and wearing the shoes I gave u on the cover? F-cking Bogus! If it wasn’t for my name, people making money off that alone. They would have the courage to say they just don’t like me. I see I gotta take it back to the days when I used to slap a b-tch tho!”
Somehow slapping your sister after she’s told the world of your lack of support strikes as…well, unsupportive.
Showing some type of growth since their infamous reality TV show, ‘Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is’, Neffe responded to her sister’s rude and violence-laced outburst with surprising class. She said, “I am very great full to have wore a pair of shoes for my book cover that was given to me what a blessing:) God is so amazing. I am also grateful for my supporters and fans family and peers who have bought my book and made sure I know about it. Be blessed and be sure to love someone besides u# because it counts!”
The rift between the Keyshia and her sister widened after Neffe teamed up with their mother to do the short-lived reality TV show ‘The Frankie and Neffe Show.’ Neffe reported that Cole was upset with her family for proceeding with their own show, even after she put the brakes on their collective reality show on BET.
It’s unclear why Keyshia was so upset with her family for wanting to continue a trend that she started. However, the feud ran so deep that Keyshia didn’t invite either her mother or her sister to her wedding to NBA player Daniel Gibson.
For now, the pair remains estranged. Surely, Keyshia’s Twitter rant will not help mend things. However, Iyanla and Oprah might be able to help the sisters repair their relationship. In a recent interview, Mrs. Gibson responded when asked about whether or not she and her sister needed an intervention to solve their ongoing issues, “Iyanla Save My Life right? I think it’s gonna take Oprah. Oprah and Iyanla.”
They tried family counseling before. Will we see this pair on Iyanla’s couch soon?
