Tamar Braxton and Vince Herbert Debut New Reality Show Tonight

Posted byBy Nick Chiles | Published on: CommentsComments (2)

Tonight at 10 p.m., Toni Braxton’s sister Tamar will officially step out of Toni’s shadow with the premiere of her new reality show, “Tamar & Vince,” which will follow the married couple as Vince tries to manage his high-strung wife’s career.

Tamar and Vince Herbert walked the red carpet last night in New York to celebrate the premiere tonight of their new show, which debuts on WEtv.

While it’s been clear that Tamar was the breakout star of “Braxton Family Values” soon after the show premiered in April 2011, now the 35-year-old singer will no longer have to share the stage with her superstar sister Toni and her older sisters Trina, Towanda and Traci, who have all been backup singers for Toni.

Tamar even spoke about it on the red carpet last night.

“I want to be known as Tamar, not Toni Braxton’s sister and definitely not Toni Braxton’s back-up singer,” she said. “I don’t give a damn if she’s Beyonce and Madonna mixed together. I don’t want to sing nobody’s background.”

As for the red carpet fashion, Tamar wowed in a ’50s inspired fit-and-flare dress while Vince, owner of Streamline Records, who has managed the careers of big name artists like Lady Gaga and Tamar’s sister, Toni, matched her retro look in a checkered shirt and bow tie.

 

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
