Doing Something Different

3/05/2008 8:30 PM ET | Filed under: Fashion Smashion

Quincy Jones' daughter, actress Rashida Jones, can now add fashion designer to her resume.

Ya, ya. Everybody's doing it, but her clothing line is a little bit different.

The Office star is coming out with an eco-friendly line, named Laloo. It hits stores this spring!

Rashida designed clothes using organic cotton and is doing other stuff that is good for the environment.

It's good to see a celebuspawn workin' hard!

I like her, HATE the new Fox show "Unhitched" she's on. The clip they show has her telling friends about a great guy she met …. "but he's short". F you. It's not like being tall is a talent or something you earn. We can't make fun of gays, blacks or woman, but "short guys" or white guys, it's cool. F YOU Rashida; it may only be lines on TV, but FU. I hate woman that think it you're not 6' tall you're short, and this is from midget 5'2" woman.

essie, you're an idiot. know what you're talking about before you post, dipshit.
re-read your sentences first, perez says – reply to this

shouldn't it say "the office star" instead of "the office?" she is the one putting out the clothing line, not the TV show!

and 'i can't believe it'

sorry, most women don't like short guys, so go freak out and overcompensate for your tiny self elsewhere, okay, smallfry?
bewyoth says – reply to this

36

is she whIte?

Not that there's anything wrong with that……
I love Rashida! says – reply to this

37

I love this actress. She is real and doesn't bug me like the little whores running around. Her parents, while very famous each, raised her 1000% right! She's not calling the pappo to say she's running to Starbucks and the Rite-Aid now. She is not running around with her bits hanging out. She doesn't date losers with tats. I hope she does very well with her clothing line. And to those of you who don't know who she is, of course you don't because you're hit getting your Brittney high on at PerezHilton! Stupid plebes.

About how she doesnt look like a Rashida… her mom's white (Peggy Lipton from The Mod Squad). Her sister Kidada Jones is also a designer, for Disney.

no matter how white her mom is, her dad is black and she didn't inherit black people hair. im amazed at how soft her hair is. she's got white people hair.

Re: Tatiane – Why do you feel the need to call her out of her name, simply because you don't know her name? It is tacky and classless. You are a female, take a stand on calling women bitches.

Is her dad really black..she looks really white..
Fanofher says – reply to this

59

Don’t be ignorant. She's biracial. Just beause she's half black doesn’t mean her hair will turn out “nappy”. I’m biracial and I have curly hair, my sister has straighter hair. Plus, I’m sure Rashida has a perm. It’s genetics. She looks like her mom. Plus, she is awesome and classy just let her be.

Everyone says "Quincy Jones' daughter" but she is also Peggy Lipton's daughter, which probably helped her fashion sense, BTW, she is great on "The Office"

Kari says – reply to this

73

Quincy Jones is at least half-white himself! She's barely black on her dad's side!! She's related to John McCain and George Washington on her dad's side.

from Wikipedia:

Quincy Delight Jones. Jr. was born in Chicago, Illinois, the eldest son of Sarah Frances (née Wells), an apartment complex manager and bank executive who suffered from schizophrenia, and Quincy Delight Jones, Sr., a semi-professional baseball player and carpenter.[4] His mother is a descendant of Mary Belle Lanier, the out of wedlock daughter of James Balance Lanier (second cousin four times removed of George Washington and first cousin of the maternal grandfather of John McCain) by an unknown African American woman.[5] Jones is also of, Welsh, and West African/Central African ancestry (for the 2006 PBS television program African American Lives he had his DNA tested; the test showed him to be of Tikar descent).

@fanofher how dare u use the term "nappy" to describe african american hair. anyone can have so called "naps" for u to be half black or whatever the hell u are u are awfully biased against at least half of yourself….check yourself

If her dad is black then why doesn't she have the slightest hint of black in her? I know her mom ia white, but still….I can't see any sign of black in her.

too bad the chances are high that those products will be made using slave labor. of course, i'll eat my words if she puts a declaration on the label that says they're not.
You BETTER believe it! says – reply to this

88

#30 I don't believe it - Get the fuck over it. Lots of women aren't attracted to short men. That's life. Just like men typically aren't attracted to fat chicks or hairy chicks. It's a fact of life. If you don't measure up (excuse my pun) then that's just tough shit because people have standards and like what they like.
Kennedy says – reply to this

89

I'm a black woman and I can tell Rashida has some black in her. Look at her cheekbones, nose and lips. How can you think she looks like a pure white girl? Nope, she doesn't - I see her black features clearly. Not all biracial people look like the "typical mulatto" or whatever you THINK people…

And the most shocking thing about her is that she was engaged to Tupac at the time of his death. No lie!

Rashida Jones is awesome! I really miss her as karen on the office though
Skankified says – reply to this

94

Quincey Jones has a lot of white in his blood. He is actually distantly related to John McCain (look at wikipedia). So of course this girl looks Anglo, she's damn near white.

that's not new…there are hundreds of organic green lines out now. edun, komodo, etc. but it's great, all project in vegas needs is one more vendor…
Lillian says – reply to this

98

Good grief, there's some ignorance in this blog. MANY of us black folks are mixed with something (as are YOU white folks), but we are still BLACK.

So Rashida has stronger Anglo features, now we want to say Quincy's not really black to justify her beauty. Yet on the flip, you have her sister with a browner, more Afrotypic look — same parents. So can we break down Peggy's gene pool to declare that she musn't be white-white because one daughter's more chocolate?

Mariah Carey has a more Afrotypic sister. My dad is light and my uncle is dark — same parents!! Black.

I just wish you lovely people were around in the past. Maybe you would spare blacks who looked like Quincy Jones from lynchings because hey, deep down he's a McCain. Maybe Quincy and his white wives would have found greater acceptance with that McCain card to prove they were not an interracial couple.

If I am 1/4 white, can I attend a klan rally on Tuesdays? If I am only 3/4 black, will cops only shoot at me 3 times instead of 4? F**kin ignorance.
