15 Reasons Why We're Crushin' On Amber Rose
Amber Rose went from "who's that exotic woman on Kanye's arm?" to a philanthropist, business woman and talk show host. The former dancer who has admitted to wanting to avoid fame at all cost at first, has used her accidental stardom to create a women's rights modern revolution. Her uncensored voice and her unapologetic look has inspired women everywhere to be who they are, even when the world might try to shame you for it.
Sebastian's mom admits to staying quiet for too long. The Philadelphia native was often seen silently walking hand in hand with Kanye. Even after their break up Amber kept to herself, regardless of all of the rumors, shaming, and bashing. Once her multi-platinum selling rapper ex got together with his dream girl Kim Kardashian, he began to put Amber down. The soft-spoken former dancer finally broke down on Sway's Rap Fix Live shortly after her split with Yeezus. Amber told Sway that Kanye's fans had even begun throwing things at her on the street.
Getting together with now the father of her son, rapper Wiz Khalifa temporarily heeled Amber. Her marriage to the "Black and Yellow" rapper was a good one, and although they are no longer together, they remain great friends. It was that separation that gave Rose the push she needs to become an advocate for women's rights and female liberation. Because she is beautiful, sexual, and fierce, we couldn't help but to love her. Here are 15 reasons why we have fallen for Amber Rose.
15 Her Slaying Look
From the very first time the world saw Amber Rose everyone had pretty much the same reaction, "Oh my God who is that stunning woman?" The tall, olive skinned and bold woman on Kanye's arm was not your everyday girl. The fact that she never spoke made her even more intriguing. Her impeccable style had fashion magazines everywhere asking who was this monument of a woman strolling the streets.
Though much of her style decisions had a lot to with Kanye being such a fashion fanatic, Amber still turns heads. Let's face it, ladies, most of us would never be able to pull the "bald head" look. Her body? Flawless. Even with a bit more weight in all the right places, Rose empowers curvy women everywhere to continue revolutionizing the world. Of course, what makes her even more appealing is her fearless yet sweet and quirky personality. Slay Amber, slay.
14 She Loves Her Fans
Being famous isn't easy. Before you beat me up as you argue the fact that it can't be that bad to have money and power, remember that it's all at the cost of losing your privacy. It has to be just a little weird for strangers to know you and for you not to know them. Yes, the perks are great until you want to go to the bodega to satisfy your craving for Skittles. Whether or not it is justifiable, celebrities who have spoke up against taking photos and signing autographs are looked down upon, Amber is not one of those people.
Amber Rose adores her fans. They even started the "Muva" craze which is now Amber's alias. Muva stays close to her fans by often snapping on Snapchat, posting on Instagram and organizing events in which she meets, greets and selfies with her fans. This is one star who won't turn down the opportunity to kissy face your phone!
13 She Became a Successful Author
"A self-respecting, strong female who has everything together. This consists of body, mind, finances, and attitude; a woman who gets her way by any means necessary." That is the description of a Bad B****h, the title of Amber's book "How To Be A Bad B***h." Yes, Muva has brains as well, she is now an author who chose to share her journey to success with other women. How can you resist a good book that teaches you how to be just as awesome as Amber Rose.
Muva describes the book as a guide to "life, love, and success." She opens up about her struggles in South Philly to prove that she would be bigger than her surroundings. From the rough streets of her upbringing to walking high end runways to owning her own businesses, Amber might not be a bad source of guidance. She's a prime example of someone who was put in the limelight, recognized her opportunities and took them.
12 Her Humbleness
"She's so nice," people always rave about Amber Rose. Unlike many celebrities, Amber has a way with people. She always has a smile on her face and is ready to take pictures with fans. During interviews, you will get nothing but honesty from Muva. She speaks pleasantly of her friends, supporters and even the people who have done her wrong. Maybe it's because she's lived a hard life, came from nothing, and has now made it to a place where she belongs and deserves. Maybe she's just always been like this. Whatever the reason we just can't get enough of it.
Although she has been through many ups and downs with ex-boyfriend Kanye West, she avoids ever speaking badly of him. Well… except when she is defending herself or her family from his Twitter rants (that's another entry). Her easygoing spirit is one of the things that make Amber Rose such an admirable kind of girl.
11 Her Ability To Be Just Friends With Attractive and Famous Guys
She's your celebrity crush's best friend. Amber Rose has many guy friends in the industry. I know what you're thinking… stop it… she has proven time and time again that the guys she chooses to spend her time with are just friends. Quincy Brown is one of Amber's besties. How to we get the chance to join that crew? She is present at all of his house parties, events and birthdays. A guest list we def want to be a part of. Always by his side and never apart, these two are adorable! Does she know how lucky she is? Does he know how lucky he is? Honestly, we just can't get enough.
French Montana and Muva are also great friends. Amber says that French and her are each other's confidants. She has even admitted to have "cried on each other's shoulders before," sorry Frenchie. The New York rapper recently donated a percent of his album sales to Amber's Walk cause.
10 Amber the Actress
Meet Amber the actress. She has done cameos for several shows and movies and has also starred in ABC's Selfie, Black-ish, and movies like School Dance, What Happened Last Night and Sister Code. Amber is really a woman with many talents. We just love to see what she will take on next, nd we love seeing her succeed because she deserves it! No she doesn't change her hair, she is already exotic enough for her roles. She prepares for her roles and takes her parts very seriously. She seems fun to work with doesn't she?
Her roles have been fun, sexy and daring. The films she has been part of can mainly be categorized as romantic comedies. Anything Amber touches she makes sure to give it her all. She may not have the training that other actors have, but she can always wrap up a project knowing that she put her heart and soul into it.
9 Uncomfortable Talk is Normal
Muva is open minded and she isn't afraid to talk about it. Which often gets her in trouble but we love how she doesn't change who she is for anyone. She is a woman who believes she has the right to speak as freely as she wants about whatever she wants and we absolutely love that about her. Women love to talk about what goes on in the bedroom. But as a lady, you should never talk about your bedroom activities in public, right? Wrong! Amber is all about female empowerment and if society is against it, she is all for it! She will say what you're thinking and much more.
Speaking about this is probably Amber's favorite subject. She is candid about her bedroom adventures, what she does on her private time, and desires. She treats the single life like any man would and she isn't afraid to share that with interviewers and fans. It's pretty clear that she loves being intimate and encourages women to have fun and safe fun when your single or your partner. One thing is for sure, Muva is a good time.
8 She's a Mommy First
Beyond anything else, Amber is a mother first. Having kids can be a life changer. Even career women with fame and power, soften up when it comes to their children. Sebastian, rapper Wiz Khalifah's son, is the apple of Amber's eye. Bash, as Amber calls him, is sweet, fun and already quite the character. We get to enjoy his many adventures with mom through Snapchat and Instagram. And we just love to see how adorable the two are together. Nothing like a mother and son bond.
Bash is the luckiest kid on earth. He has a mother who takes him to work when she has to and puts him before anything and anyone. Ms. Rose always raves about how great of a father her ex-husband is and the love he often shows his son. Can they just get any cuter? Baby Bash, we would not mind trading lives with you!
7 The Angie Martinez Interview
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7Eus4bbUHoThis interview with New York radio host Angie Martinez will spark a new found respect for the former dancer and model. Amber talks about her journey in life and fulfilling her goals and dreams. She explains that her trajectory from a dancer to dating a rapper to fame, is her own path and in no way does she encourage anyone to follow in those same footsteps.
Rose makes it clear that she stands for empowerment, confidence and success. She wants people to feel good about who they are and not to be afraid to be different. Many people may misconstrued her boisterous intentions as an "okay" to dance and date your way into the industry. No, during this interview Amber makes it clear that it was first of all her hard work that has gotten her this far but that in no way is she directing young girls to take that route. Education, sweat and tears will give you the same or better results, find your own journey.
6 No One Shall Ever Speak Ill Of BFF Blac Chyna
You said what about who?! Run! Since becoming close friends with now Rob Kardashian's fiancee and mother of his child Blac Chyna, Amber has been defending her fiercely. We love a girl who stands up for her bestie! Or any woman for that matter. We should all support each other. For those who don't live under a rock, Chyna's "baby daddy" is Tyga, now Kylie Jenner's boyfriend. When he first left the former dancer for the teenage Kardashian-Jenner sister, Muva was on edge.
A Breakfast Club interview got Amber into a Twitter feud with defender of the sisters Khloe Kardashian, after Amber called Kylie "a baby who needs to go to bed at 7 and relax." That conversation led to one of the most entertaining back and forth's in celebrity gossip history. To think it was all over someone else's problem. This just proves how far Muva is willing to go for her friends.
5 How She Fires Back
Kanye is to Twitter rants as red is to an apple. In one of Kanye's many discourses to the world, he decided to go off on Amber's ex, Wiz Khalifah. While trying to decide on the title of his new album, Kanye at the time went for "Waves," a title that he later on changed. Wiz thought the title didn't really fit who Kanye is and decide to voice his opinion through Twitter. This led to Kanye going off on Wiz, his ex Amber and the moment he messed up… he dared to bring little Bash into it.
That's when Amber went off. "Aww @kanyewest are u mad I'm not around to play in your a****le anymore? #fingersinthebootya**b****." The tweet read around the world led to some extreme controversy as Amber had never spoken up like this before. But Muva bear will always defend her cub and felt like Kanye crossed the line, causing the retaliation. Although this led to good (as we will see in a couple more entries) Kanye did indeed get bodied by a st**pp** n***a (LOL).
4 Her Relationship With Ex-Husband Wiz Khalifa
Divorce can be an ugly thing, especially in the celebrity world. Amber and Wiz had a great relationship and their separation left us all in shock. But these two seemed to have built a pretty solid friendship beyond the love they still feel for one another. Amber speaks wonders of Wiz as a person, father, and friend. How many other divorced couples do you know still go to the adult clubs together?
Wiz and Amber still have family days with their son, go out together and even still hook up once in awhile… naughty naughty. They speak very well of one another and you can even catch Wiz on his ex's Instagram page commenting and liking her pictures. He is also one of Amber's biggest supporters in her Walk campaign and her new show, The Amber Rose Show. A woman that can be friendly with her ex has to be an easy going and big hearted person, don't you agree ladies?
3 Making Peace With Kim Kardashian
Well… there's two people that the world never thought to see together. It was a normal day like any other, when all of a sudden social media blew up with a photo of Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian… together! After the whole twitter war between her and ex Kanye, wife and reality queen Kim Kardashian decided to reach out to Amber. Being the "bigger person," Kim wanted to squash the beef and move on peacefully.
Rose says she met up with Kim and actually thinks she is a stand-up gal. After having indirect arguments and suffering through Kanye's transition from her to Kim, things had finally reached a good point. This photo will go on in history but how real is this act of peace between these two? Well, Amber says that everything was great until her emojis dropped. A certain "booty in the butt" unapproved image sneaked in the mix and Kim immediately called Amber. After explaining that she had not approved the emoji and immediately removed it, Kardashian seemed skeptical of her once again. Ayayay Muva (hehe).
2 The Amber Rose Show
She's so good… she should have her own show. Well, now she does! The Amber Rose show premiered July 8, 2016 on VH1. The late night show puts Muva in the spotlight as she invites her famous friends over for a little bit of gossip, fun and games. Amber also hits the streets to get your opinions on her crazy topics. Lastly, the show is all about getting physical. Rose opens up about everything and nobody who shows up is safe from her pesky questions!
The Amber Rose Show is getting okay feedback. Muva's fans are loyal to her so of course they are tuning in and forcing their friends to watch also. The show is fun and if you like celebrity news and intimate talk, this is the show for you. C'mon where else can you go to hear that Wiz put his babies on Amber's face? Her words, certainly not ours.
1 The Amber Rose Walk
No more shaming. This is definitely something we can stand behind. Amber Rose represents a very important cause in our ongoing fight for equality as women. The "Amber Rose" Walk began when a woman who was assaulted and was left at fault because officers said she dressed too provocatively. About 1 year ago Amber took over the Walk after she became fed up of being a victim of slander herself.
Thousands of people showed up in support of Muva and all women around the world. They held up signs that read "F*** your 30 showers" in response to Kanye's words during a Breakfast Club interview. Amber held up her own sign saying "Dancers have feelings too." The former dancer has dedicated a lot of her time and heart into this as she wants all women to know that we should be respected no matter what you do and how you choose to dress.
