So Gene Simmons was the inspiration for Jack Nicholson’s character from “Something’s Gotta Give"?

Coochie popping with bits of black culture and shots of her daughter sprinkled constitutes something just for “us”? Nope. I’m tired of her antics, she’s been doing the drag stripper persona for over 10 years and it has made her wealthy but us none the wiser.
So this is what we get? A post on how coochie popping Beyonce (Rhianna must have been busy) is affecting social change. Somehow, we can’t get individual posts on Chris Rock’s comments or the passing of Maurice White. I’d rather have you put up a post with just EWF lyrics than this crap, though Blue Ivy is cute.
You had me until the last sentence. Those shows had poc as fillers and nothing substantial-that’s why it made sense for Damon Wayans Jr left, a talented actor became known as “the other black guy”. Garrett Morris has made a career out of being “the black guy".
That pic is everything. The problem isn’t just the nomination process,it’s the process itself. When a project is in the embryo stage, they’re not considering a poc. I remember a co-worker stating that Lupita wouldn’t get any offers after 12 Years cause she’s stereotyped, I explained her background and got a blank…
Aside for the “r”word I agree. You could also include the white girl: gaining weight, losing weight, wearing a prosthetic nose, having a terminal illness, and creating a mop.
I wouldn’t say that. He started at ESPN & produced Tucker Carlson’s show before moving on to RM. Just went with the opportunities.
I don’t know if it’s available but Google Jerome Bettis’ mtv diary episode or the interviews with the late Mike Webster’s family. The older “Outside the Lines” as well as “Real Sports” episodes touched on this.
Yeah, he went from Rachel Maddow to the View, to that.
No. Only recently did people deviate from the “Lennon and Bowie are gods” narrative. Black artists who’ve done wrong have always been perceived as thugs, whites who do the same are seen as complicated and tortured artists.
Is this the D-Money that gov Bigot (LePage) talked about? What white girls did he get pregnant?
Posting this in every gawker Oscar post.......
Everyone knows that the academy only nominates poc who are: mammys, thugs, slaves, pimps, prostitutes, and junkies. The last Oscar winner other than Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu for a project with poc was for “12 Years a Slave”. Only songs win, cause blacks are so musical. “It’s Hard Out Here for a Pimp” should be the…
Diversity is fine....as long as you’re a size 6. No fatties or anyone older than 55. Where’s the gorgeous Christine Baranski and her statement necklaces? I will say that Priyanka Chopra favors Kerry Washington though.
So they’re working on a sequel to “Love, Actually”? Brilliant!
Thirsty? Yes. Appealing? No.
Congrats to Kendrick Lamar, this season’s India.Arie. The “urban” artist who gets a lot of nods, only to win in their expected category of rap/hip hop and maybe a token pop win. I’m rooting for Ed Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” for song & record of the year.
This is why most progressives get well deserved crap. I don’t care if someone wasn’t charged, that makes me think there was a payoff. I’ll add Sean Bean and Nicholas Brandon to the list of abusers who don’t get a fraction of the attention Chris Brown gets. The majority of it is race based-did the LAPD “accidentally”…
I thought she was overrated. Then I heard “25” on repeat and it proved my point. Good vocals, but run of the mill. This speaks to her not looking like a “regular” (ultra skinny) singer. People feel they can “relate”. What makes it worse is they use her as an excuse to bash Beyonce on her lack of “realness”. It’s the…
Not even close, and I think Beyonce is overrated. It’s just that the hype machine is all about Adele. For me, Chrisette Michele is better than both of them but will not be seen on their level due to the hype machine not seeing her as commercial enough.
