But the thing is, everyone knows he’s friends with Brad and Leo. That’s why it’s funny. It’s not completely made-up; it’s deliberately a zinger. It’s like telling Dave Franco you prefer James or what not.

You know he wasn’t actually sodomized by a demon, right? That scene is a joke in itself, which I guess he forgot?
The point of the scene she referred to was that him getting raped was funny, right? So now he’s going to get mad when someone else makes a joke that agrees that the premise of the scene was funny? If he regrets it, he should say that he was in some crappy scenes that he wishes he hadn’t done, not call anyone who…
so are you defending a man who played an anal rape scene as a joke in a movie?
Where do you perceive weight or appearance coming into it?
No, it’s not about his weight. It’s about why a joke like this works about a man but wouldn’t about a woman.
Sure, in the same way that a joke showing the power dynamic between blacks and whites at the expense of whites is funny, but at the expense of blacks isn’t. Making fun of the power dynamic IS the joke. Reversing the genders would remove the humor.
That’s true, but that’s why punching upward works and punching down doesn’t.
the pretty french lady made a joke that not only landed, it bored right through the center of the freakin’ earth.
I mean, that’s a pretty funny joke. And the exact kind of joke I’m sure he has made about himself in dozens if interviews. He was probably just no in a good place at the time, but come on, suck it up.
If the middle class wants political consideration they should get rich.
If Hillary supports her, you’re supposed to support her. Nothing that doesn’t rave about how wonderful Hillary is or her people are will be tolerated here.
Lean In and Fuck Up the middle class.
I can in terms of skin tone. As beautiful as she is her dark skin likely would been considered a negative even 15 years ago. The majority of successful black actresses (or actresses of color) tend to be lighter-skinned than she is. She’s breaking beauty standards in terms of being a beautiful, dark-skinned woman in a…

No. No bb, your point is not accurate. Not when only 14% of magazine covers last year featured women of color (and no, that’s not proportional to the population, so please don’t try to make that tired argument). Also, plenty of studies still show that society has a HUGE unconscious bias toward caucasian standards of…
In case you’re not a troll and are being sincere. A wider variety of women are more represented in American media than they were 20 or 30 years ago, this is true. However you are commenting on an article about a dark skinned African woman talking about her experience being dark skinned, the racism and colorism she’s…
Yes the ‘ethnic’ look, not the very dark skinned look. All the women you mentioned are brown-skinned at the most with primarily European features and long, often straightened hair. Very dark-skinned women like Lupita Nyong’o, Uzo Aduba, and Viola Davis have until recently been very limited in the roles they played and…
