Countess Vaughn ended up a trending topic on Twitter today for all the wrong reasons.
The actress turned reality star is no stranger to the spotlight, having been on the scene since the 1980’s and starring in hit sitcoms such as “227,” “Moesha” and “The Parkers.” In recent years, she’s re-emerged via the TV One reality series Hollywood Divas and her expressive personality makes her a staple on social media.
Despite being diagnosed with a thyroid condition that makes her voice hoarse, Countess has decided to embark on a career in music, and this season on Hollywood Divas, she shot a music video for a song she recorded called “Do You Love Him?”
Vaughn finally released the video today, and Twitter can’t stop talking about it.
Based on Countess’ awkward dancing, her signature funny faces, and the “campy” nature of the storyline, some folks are questioning if the video was meant to be a joke, while others are simply asking why it was even created in the first place. Then there are those who seem to genuinely enjoy the overall gift that is Countess Vaughn.
A few highlights from the Twitterverse:

Countess Vaughn recorded these vocals in a payphone booth. Because there's just no way they were done in a studio.

Countess made a music video that managed to successfully describe Black folks who wear colored contacts. Impressive!

If that Countess video was satire, it would be brilliant & deserving of a Peabody or something. But she was serious so we gotta pray. Amen!

I wish Countess had made a video for that "Shake Your Booty All Night" song she sang on "The Parkers."
