Honestly, that pissed me off. I feel like people don’t want to call them out because it’s so rare that we get films with POC as leads, but bull fucking shit. A lot of WOC, including myself, can’t stand these guys. I can separate the art from the artist, but the problem is the misogyny that characterized the artist…

Hate is not healthy, and yet, I hate that guy for being an abusive monster as much as I hate him/his team for cleaning up his monster abusive past. I’ll never see the movie because I never support abusive monsters, no matter their skills/profession. F him.

Can't they just tell Kanye to STF down or GTF out of the building? What right does he have to trot his ass up on stage anytime he feels like it?

She is very overrated, yes

agreed. Beck has been making odd and complex music for decades. I can enjoy Beyoncé on occasion and generally enjoy the hip hop/R&B genres, but Beck was an unusual—and good!—choice for the Grammys to make.

It seems like she only really blew up to the point of insane mass worship after she adopted the "Queen Bey" marketing technique. Guess it worked.

oh! my icon is a painting by yoshitomo nara. he's amazing! :)

About Sam Smith... I'm really surprised no one is talking about the whole Tom Petty thing. I mean, he, or one of the writers on the song, stole from Tom Petty. Tom Petty was like WTF and then he was able, after the fact, to get a partial co-write credit to sweep it under the rug before this kid's big win. So.. yeah.…

Ummm NO. No, no and no. That's why she DIDN'T win. Beck is an artist. In every sense of the word. Beyonce is an entertainer and is beautiful. See the difference? Artists win grammys.

Just want to point out the three awards for the amazing singer songwriter , and long time feminst, Rosanne Cash.

According to Wikipedia, 'Drunk in Love' hit #2, and nothing else even made the top 20. (she hasn't had a #1 since "Single Ladies", I think). Beyonce's album was just like, a bunch of songs about fake female empowerment and pleasing your man. I'll pass.

Should have won album of the year?? Bahahhaaaaaa!!! Bitch please.

this is not going to make me popular, but i'm just gonna go ahead and say it: i'm fed up with kanye. hey kanye, it's not always about you. he is the sorest loser-by-proxy i've ever seen. just LET someone have a moment. we can go back to you after that. christ.

Her voice is still so flawless. She didn't need 400 half naked musclemen wearing bejeweled masks and live autotuning to be utterly riveting.

Yeah, she was a non-auto-tuned breath of fresh air...

Hmmmm...this article gets a little inconsistent as soon as Tracee Ellis Ross is put up as the shinning example of black hair representation. Yes Tracee is black. And yes she's important to the conversation. But the loose curls of biracial Ms. Ross is miles away from the tight kinky curl of Viola Davis and Kerry…

That's enough internet for today. I'm out. Good bye y'all, I'll remember you all in therapy.

What if I, a minority, tell you that something you've said or written is offensive to me as a minority and it just so happens that my white friends agree. Would you apologize for having offended me or would you tell me that I'm being too sensitive and that you have another minority friend who wasn't bothered at all?…

Here's some nuance! I'm (largely) anti-Chait's article, you're (I assume) pro-Chait's article, and you're doing the exact thing Chait was complaining about (taking a single non-PC thing I said in my article - language implying that minorities are homogeneous, single-minded groups - and using it to angrily discredit my…
