It is still a very racially charged term. In Europe black soccer players and even politicians have had bananas thrown at them fairly recently. You can’t ignore that history because kids and animals = cute.

Counterpoint: this country has a history of violence towards African Americans and you need to be sensistive to such realities. Sorry if in your white bubble something as racist as calling a black child a monkey is okay to you

For real. They’re running this on a network that was called out for massively underpaying its employees who do the same job, solely based on sex and their answer was “yep, bye. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out,” but we’re supposed to believe they give a shit about sexism and abuse? It’s all for $$$.

This is the last thing she needs. Rose needs to take a step back because it seems like she’s misplacing blame everywhere. I had to unfollower her after her rant tonight. I get it, #metoo, but attacking allies isn’t helping.

Also Poc.

That’s great E!

Same. Would that vitriolic wrath directed at her was converted into real action against the actual abusers...

I was ready to get mad at the actress who said that about black dresses except it wasn’t an actress. It was a stylist who was asked about her work and, as a response, talked about her work. She may have been completely insensitive when she was interviewed, sure, OR maybe that one quote does not represent the entirety…

Those posters made me seethe. She might have known. I personally think it’s feasible she didn’t (too high up the food chain) but she wasn’t the abuser and it makes my blood boil when people will find a reason, any reason, to somehow blame women for men’s crimes.

Well, to be fair, should the women / victims be the ones who skip being recognized for their work? I get that they make gobs of money but if any of the female actors were harassed on the job, I just don’t see how demanding that they not show up to the awards enacts any kind of justice.

Why exactly is Jezebel promoting the Trump supporter who made the Meryl Streep posters?

I would prefer them not going, yes.

These brave women, wearing black beautiful dresses.

It wasn’t until 1985 that the problem was solved by a mexican astronaut with Tortillas, the same time it took to go from a V2 rocket to sending people to space.

I protested the travel ban next to her in downtown NYC last year. She and her husband and kid were there and all very nice.

She’s rich enough she could buy her own damn ring. At that point, it’s not really a gift.

Baccarin’s ex is a dick. He previously refused to move to New York, even after she paid for him to have an apartment there and instead would make their son fly to California. I get being pissed that your ex likely cheated on you, but don’t take those issues out on the kid.

Trump is president and Paris Hilton doesn’t look so bad in comparison to the resident famous-for-nothing-celebs. This simulation is not working. Shut it down and start a new one

Meghan Trainor isn’t an actual teenager who somehow escaped church choir?

I would like Paris to go back to being not news worthy. No hate, I just find her so boring.
