He is not racist but sometimes he comes across as rude and narcissist. George has always given time and money to Black causes. The genocide in Darfur, Hurricane Katrina, the earthquake in Haiti, the AIDS crisis in Africa, campaigned for the Obamas, etc. He is friends with Sandra that is why he was happy for her.

I don't think that of him at all. I just posted what was said from that blog.
 
:smt042:smt042:smt042 Damn, Howard and Jamie burned her. Yeah, it's funny to me. Nothing against her, but shit, I laughed.

Our First Lady for starters. She's nice and all but they push her like she's model status. There are local newswomen who are more attractive.

A few years ago they were really selling Eve hard as well. Was she ever hot? Stefani totally overshadowed her in that video if you ask me.

They have been trying for years to make me believe that Latifah is hot (and straight).

There's always some average (or fat) chick the media will push hard in the interest of "diversity," yet the genuinely beautiful ones, like Gabrielle Union, get marginalized.

Why doesn't she have a much bigger career is beyond me.

Kerry Washington seemed to be having a good streak for awhile now but Zoe Saldana stole her shine. She's the new 'it' black girl at the moment. I knew this when she was cast as Uhura in Star Trek.

My dad saw it and said that it was a good movie. Again, that's Hollywierd's contempt for Black Womanhood. They don't want someone who's actually attractive to represent it. They want Aunt Jemeima.

True, however doesn't Halle Berry by default get tall the black woman roles?

Just read a blog about George Clooney not standing up while Mo'Nique accepted her award and was calling him racist.

Its Sandra Rose, what do you expect?

I highly doubt George Clooney, who hosted a whole telethon for Haiti and had a few black girlfriends back in the day, is a racist because he didn't give Monique a standing ovation...

Hollywood is dying for another Mammy figure, Latifah's looking too damn good these days and Monique went and got her stomach stapled. They will write roles just for Gabby.

Robin is all the mammy Howard needs, lol.

I only posted the link. Again, that's not my personal opinion, it's Sandras!

I'm sorry but kerry washington or whoever that is in the first pic is way hotter. If that dress got any shorter, I'd be seeing places I'd like to boldly go that other men have gone before.

That's Nichelle Nichols in the first pic. The Classic Uhura from the '60s.

Kids today, haha.
 
lippy's take on gabourey is that she will get a few roles immediately but it won't last...the role that she played in precious had so many parallels to her own life that it wasn't really a best actress performance...she grew up fat...she didn't gain weight to play the role...the casting director knew who he was looking for and the day she walked in she was already that character...do you really think that the character that monique played isn't somewhere or somehow close to something she may have experienced in her own life...or at least witnessed?

a best actress performance is when someone does a role that is so far from who they are in their own life...many times based on a real story, they meet with the person they are portraying...learn about them...how they talk...walk...mannerisms...etc...i don't see where gabby had to do much more than memorize a script...she played herself in much of the movie

.02 cents
