The president of Florida A&M University on Saturday said the historically Black college ("HBCU") was taking “immediate steps to ensure accountability” after its band announcer commented on the weight of Alabama State University’s Honey Beez dancers.
During half-time of the game between the two schools, Florida A&M band announcer Joe Bullard called the dance team that performs with Alabama State’s Mighty Marching Hornets as “the new face of Ozempic,” HBCU Gameday reported.
Dr. Quinton Ross, the president of Alabama State University, called the remark “distasteful” and “short-sighted.”
“To have their artistry disrespected after such a performance is absolutely unacceptable,” Ross wrote.
“Honey Beez, please know that you are celebrated, valued, and admired for the joy that you bring to the Hornet Nation, and also for the bold and fearless way you represent the very best of ASU,” Ross wrote.
FAMU president Marva B. Johnson apologized for the remark in a statement.
“The Honey Beez represent discipline, school pride and their performance tradition is respected across the nation,” Johnson wrote.
“Such comments are unacceptable and will not be tolerated,” she said of the band announcer’s remark.
I think they are way past being honey bees. More like Bumble Bees.
Female Sumo wrestlers?
I’m an old white woman and I love to watch the Honeybees, so don’t speak for me.

Ha...I think you are correct.
I thought one of them lost her boobs outside the uniform, turns out it was just fat rolls. Admittedly watched the whole thing, like gawkers do on a car wreck.
Wow!!! These girls can MOVE. I’m surprised they haven’t lost all that weight.
I’m old enough to remember society pretty much as a whole shaming smokers, one argument was that everyone else was subsidizing smokers poor health and medical care.
How is this different, this lifestyle choice?

The girls really can cheer and dance, mostly because their still young and flexible. Their choreographed routines are well synchronized, BUTT, it is their JUMBO girth is what gets your attention first.
They almost look like a CGI version of the same big gal. Five chubby gals, dancing in a row. They are Sumo Fat in the exactly same way.
**Remember Trigglypuff, that angry college hall protestor at Massachusetts Amherst from 2016? Thats what we have here.
I saw that game. It was like watching the hippos dance in Fantasia!................
I only hit post once...sigh
Hard to believe with all of this type of exercise everyday they are STILL this fat boggles my mind!!!
They be fat. But they are not alone. A sign of our fat culture.
I remember seeing Fantasia on the big screen as a child.
That’s from my favorite sequence in the film! :-)
