‘Where’s the Baby Sweetie?’: Tamar Braxton Gets Amusingly Blasted By Her Co-Host as They Debate Her ‘Baby Hairs’

THERE WAS ONLY ONE HEADLINE OPTION FOR THIS STORY.

Tamar Braxton wants to promote her hair-care product OMG You Grow Girl, but she and her fans are too busy laughing at something else to pay attention to the product.

On Jan. 16, Braxton uploaded a video of her chatting it up with her co-host, Johnny Wright, from her VH1 show “To Catch a Beautician,” with her product sitting on the table. Suddenly Braxton said, “I have baby hairs,” to which Wright quickly corrected and informed her that what she had was not baby hairs but “adult hairs.”

For more clarity, Braxton asked Wright, “I don’t have baby hairs?” He responded with: “You are 56 years old.” The two laughed heartily before Wright yelled, “where’s the baby sweetie?”

While attempting still to promote her hair-care product and respond to the video, the mother of one wrote, “No matter what age… or who tries TF out of you… 🤣😩😩…you need your edges.. mine came back with @omgyougrowgirl_ get your “adult” hair back at ANY cage‼️‼️

Fans could not help but laugh and respond to Wright’s statements to Braxton in the comments section.

One fan wrote, “I literally have tears in my eyes laughing at you all. I hope you guys show come back on I love it!!!”

Another said, “He said it with a straight face too😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😭😂 he TRIED IT TAY😭😂.”

A number of fans commented on how they believe the 43-year-old “All The Way Home” singer looks even younger than her age.

“🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️ 💀 ❤️❤️❤️ but my boo be looking 28 though 💁🏻‍♀️,” one person wrote while another one shared that she actually looks “26.”

It’s not certain whether there will be another season of “To Catch A Beautician,” but it’s likely that Braxton’s fans, the Tamartians, will not be seeing her on a reality TV show for a while. After blasting We tv for what she described as a toxic work culture and blaming the company as being one of the reasons for her reported suicide attempt in July 2020, Braxton revealed on “The Tamron Hall Show” that she was done with reality television “forever and ever.”

She said, “I feel like that’s the best thing for me. I’m doing other things with television which I’m really excited about, but I don’t feel like I need to give a depiction of my life and what’s happening and a play-by-play and who I’m dating and how my kid is doing.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
