No, that was based on the Supremes and J-Hud was basically Florence Ballard. I’m glad Aretha gave up on Halle Berry playing her (I was really hoping that was a rumor)

I understand completely, I feel the same way.

that’s okay, Panama, I happen to think Best New Artist is cursed. Look at the list of winners over the years. There’s as many 1-hit wonders (Starland Vocal Band, Debby Boone, Meghan Trainor, fun) as there are people who’ve had well received careers (Sade, Lauryn hill, Adele, Mariah) I sometimes breathe a sigh of…

It’s quite tiresome when White folks try to explain away ANY Black accomplishment by saying ‘Affirmative Action’! And right, ‘handing out awards to folks who deserve them’ means ‘White men like me’.

Nah, not really. They wasted 90 MILLION of that rip-off of ‘Alien Nation’ but canceled ‘sense8' and ‘The Getdown’. They offered Wanda Sykes HALF what they offered Mo.

Yes

They made ‘Bright’

She won an OSCAR for the movie ‘Precious’. She’s had a few comedy specials and headlined ‘The Queens of Comedy’. Beerfest? WTF is that?

You know, I really did consider whether these men were trying to belittle Mo because they didn’t look like someone they wanted to fuck. If she looked like Sade, would they be sympathetic? I stopped my Netflix sub last year and seeing that they were lowballing her (And Wanda Sykes said she was offered HALF what they…

Trump was told that “Not all” welfare recipients “are black”. Trump responded: “Really? Then what are they?” Here are the stats. Food Stamps by Race: ✐ White = 40% ✐ Black = 27.7% ✐ Hispanic = 10.3% ✐ Asian/Native American = 1.2%

Not to mention YOU REALLY DIDN’T SEE IT!!! I remember watching and it had just cut to commercial. It was ALL the replays in slo-mo (they credit Janet with creating Youtube, lol) and pictures that let you see what happened. And he looked like he just rolled out of bed to run up there and sing his song. then he ran back…

AND they’ll be serving liquor which Prince didn’t allow at PP. I hope his ghost cuts the power!

Yes, I’ve loved her for a long time and FINALLY saw her last year in Philly. She truly was amazing!

i remember her doing an interview a few years ago and the guy asked her about whether he apologized to her and she just said ‘we’ll have to talk’ so I know he’s lying about ‘friendships’. Also, Tyler Perry forever has my respect for getting on a news reporter while he & Janet were doing promo for ‘Why Did I Get…

I also still side-eye the shit out of Timbaland for putting this wannabe on that Michael Jackson song after his death- ‘Love Never Felt so Good’ and Jay-Z for touring with him. btw, how did Rolling Stone crown him the ‘new king of pop’ when Usher was outselling him (also outdancing and outsinging him)?

Don’t forget Diamond & Silk!

I only remember it because she had a 1-woman show on HBO and folks were talking about her being in this Woody movie. Even her IMDB page says she ‘the first person of African descent to be in an Allen movie’

And it’s the agency terry Crews was at and still employs the guy that grabbed him by the ....
