Neither do I, nor am I (or any other Black woman of any age) required to support her because she and I are the same race. Instead of begging "older Black women" to accept her shuck-n-jiving as viable entertainment, she'd do well to recognize the fact that the only reason why she's gotten this far is because she plays…

As far as I'm concerned, both are birds of the same feather, as Beyonce been called out about this many times over as well.

What that chick fails to understand is that Mimi's racial issues have been discussed to death among us and we've (generally) accepted her as the loopy butterfly and rainbows diva spirit that has blessed our eyes and ears for over two decades.

I saw it more as her utilizing her decades of experience in subtle bitchery as a means of self-preservation in the face of Nicki's sloppy behavior.

That's funny, because Beyonce has been called out plenty of times (by me, as well as others) about this as well.

It's rather simple - white women have been placed on the pedestal of what femininity all Black women should aspire to achieve in this country since its dawn. Any Black woman who falls short of that is regarded as the shit beneath one's shoe, which is why you see plenty of misbegotten shuck-n-jivers like Minaj…

No, dear. Older Black women write you off because:

Am I the only one who thinks that she looks like DJ Tanner in that photo?

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Normally, I'd give Aunt Viv a serious side-eye on her schooling Stacey Dash about having class, but I'll gladly give her a pass on this since she and I subscribe to the same Eva Longoria school of thought when it comes to a minority female Romney supporter (especially a Black female one).

Oh, I think it's just as blatant as it was before - the only difference being that they updated this for today's contemporary audience to consume and internalize.

"in today's politically correct atmosphere, when so many targets TV would mock in the past — Native Americans, Asians, Latinos, black people, women — are now off-limits"

No, you're definitely not.

Please tell me that this is neither fact (as per some unaired eppy) or a spoiler for season 6.

How I miss him so!

I interpret it as their resignation over soul-sucking colonialism.

I guess I was the only one here that was struck dumb over the native Africans who are forced to stand by while a bunch of interlopers frolic in a canoe on their land over any implied homoeroticism, huh?

I sure did, which reinforces my opinion that she is a useless character.

Normally, I'd be in total agreement with you, but the President truly cannot afford any bad publicity of any kind - especially when idiotic buffoons like the ones above will use this against him as a 'reason' why he is no longer fit to lead this country.

While I get why she has to apologize - after all, she is working for our President's reelection campaign - I am all the way with you on calling some as what they are - dumb as dogshit.
