Wyclef Jean -- Please, No Fatties!

If you're thinking about getting on stage at a Wycelf concert -- be sure you're under 200 lbs.!


At a Super Bowl weekend performance at 944 Village in Scottsdale, AZ -- Wyclef asked for 30 girls to shake it with him on stage, but announced a weight limit for anyone climbing up to join him.

Wyclef finished his performance with a far-from-Jimi-Hendrix-caliber rendition of the Star Spangled Banner.

63. Everyone's entitled to their preferences - c'mon people, a woman weighing over 200lbs would be huge. How many women would want an equivalent fat guy.

66. Men who are 5'10 - 6;0 are easily 180 to 200 lbs. A woman who is 5'10 could be 200 lbs. and not be morbidly obese. I am surprised at the ignorance and unfounded prejudice out there.

67. That was some uncalled for crap. He has some nerve like he is all that and then some? I can not even understand someone who looks like his faced is all but pushed in is going to say something like that. The only reason anyone would want his ass is because he has money so all his 30 skinny broads only jumped up on stage because hes loaded! If he was just some guy on the corner tring to beg for change for his dimes & beer they all would pass his ass right up! Some people should really think before they open thier mouths. Karma is a mother. And wtf goes around comes around pal!

69. it's always the butt...
Also,I want to warn all Democrats and our OBAMA supporters...The Republican Right is out to get us again...They have found one of OBAMA"s college room mates (now a Republican) and as soon as OBAMA wins the Democatic nomination- they are going to pull "another Lewinski" on the American public...apperently OBAMA's old roomie will admit to the PRESS that he witnessed OBAMA snorting & even dealing Cocaine to more than a few of his close friends in their shared dorm room!!!...The Republican's hope to sway the independent vote and the undecidedes with this shocker... They are betting that the fallout will put John Mc Cain over the top and will win him election for President.
I think this may be a false rumour but Obama did admit his Cocaine Use and I think we have to take this admission by Obama very seriously...if it is true I don't think the Republican's are going to leave this Drug issue alone!!!

70. If the size of the stage was a problem why did he even ask women on stage? What is he too cheap to hire back up dancers? He could have hired four or five back up dancers (that fit his size requirements to dance on stage) now he's been shown for the idiot he is! Good way to promote an album.

72. I hear at his next show he is banning disabled people. He actually has a list, after that it's Asians, then gays. Then it will be all you dimwits who think his request is even something a human being should do, I dont care if you are fat or thin - the man is an arsehole. He has no values, smarts, respect - he needs the thin chicks for his own glorification to make himself feel worthy. Without his money -no one would look at him. And did he say - you must be thin AND beautiful. Did the unattractive thin women get turned away? And yes, being overweight is unhealthy but it's not always a matter of just eating less. For many,eating is an emotional issue, tied up with all kinds of other issues. And some woman are fine with their weight and don't listen to the shallow morons on this loop because they have something the people who diss don't - confidence.

73. #2 - he has NO right to demand such a thing It's not in the Bill of Rights. What he had was the inane audacity to say such a thing. What is even better are the woman who went up on stage after hearing that. They're just as empty as he is.

75. Wow .. you'd think he was Nick Carter of the backstreet boys with a comment like that.... I can only hope that the 200+lb women stop buying his crap music.... and then we will see how many women he CAN get on a stage. Loser. His music blows anyway! LOL!!!
