Ugh. This book was SO GOOD, I know the movie is never as good as the book, but JLaw doesn’t play a psycho well at all. Overall the movie was not really great.
Yeah, it wasn’t a decade of people holding her back. It was a decade of people saying “Hmm, she’s hot... maybe we can pull this off.” and then realizing she just didn’t have the chops. And then another person saying “Hmm, she’s hot... maybe we can pull this off.” etc.
A solid chunk of Showgirls’ buzz was created by an abruptly NC-17 Jessie Spano, so I can’t imagine its getting as much attention with an unknown actress in the role. Plus, the acting would’ve been at least competent, thus completely eliminating the glorious trainwreck appeal. I, for one, am glad the movie turned down…
Eyeroll. No shit an actress who’s just starting out and doing small guest roles really wanted a lead part on a series. Doesn’t mean you were making great art, dude.
White people can rap. What people object to is her trying to pretend she is black while rapping. Its not really a difficult distinction. Macklemore, Aesop Rock, there are other white rappers that people dont have a problem with. Hell, Eminem sounds hood as fuck but people dont care because he is actually hood as…
It doesn’t matter how hard you work at something if you’re bad at it.
Um, men who were/wanted to fuck her literally looked at her and said “She is white and “exotic” looking. She should have a career.” That’s not how it works for other artists. She had a bunch of Black men kissing her ass, teaching her, and pushing her simply because they were infatuated with the idea of a white female…
...and she was still bad at it. That’s what you seem to be missing.
There’s always one... If that black woman proved over and over again that she couldn’t rap, it’s entirely possible they would have told her to pursue a career in pop. Not to mention the fact that if that black Australian woman tried to launch a country music career by appropriating Southern culture, she would face a…
All through this article producers and directors are trying to get her to go pop instead of hip-hop, and when she finally does try to do hip-hop everyone holds it against her that she is white.
James Woods doesn’t think a 24 year old dating a 17 year old is bad. He thinks a 24 year old guy dating a 17 year old guy is bad.
Why why WHY is Fairy beating Satyr??? Which would you rather be, some fragile tiny woodland creature, or a horny stomparound getting wasted while they shred on the panpipes?
i’ve been drunk enough to voluntarily eat Arbys, but never drunk enough to become racist.
Sorry about your baby.
It’s an ethos thing—a claim is more credible if you present yourself as a skeptic who has been won over: “I’m not a fan, but this doesn’t seem like a big deal to me” vs. “omg I LOVE HER SO MUCH this is so not a big deal”
That’s what moms do....
TBH, I’m not a fan, but I mentioned this only because I didn’t want people to think I am a fan and therefore giving her the benefit of the doubt solely because of that.
This. The backlash is predictable, but idiotic. This is why I am sick of constant internet outrage. We can’t even discuss our personal feelings about our own experiences anymore? Fuck that noise.
The most incredible part of this story is that somebody is still interested in interviewing Russell Brand.
