I hope Tiffany and Maya host next year just so he can stay mad.

Oh forget this Jakoury McQueen guy.

Anyone who says Iron Man 2 is a palpatable movie in any way eats cat litter and snorts dried glue.

Oh my god, yes. I just about died when she was trying to work that Tina Turner wig. lol

She is both regal and fierce, a perfect casting.

My sons loved her but I will always be partial to my General.

You are the one who initially brought up Cleopatra, not me. You did so in order to insinuate that Nefertiti, who again lived several millennia before Cleopatra, was not of African heritage. Which is exactly what I wrote in my initial response. Learn proper reading and writing skills. Don’t make me embarrass you again.

Did they explain (in actual detail) why they made her so pale? Googling “why did they make Nefertiti so white” just brings up... uh.. some. VERY RACIST websites.

Nefertiti lived several millennia before the Ptolemaic Greek dynasty conquered ancient Egypt. It is far more likely she would resemble people from the neighboring Nubia Kingdom (now part of the Sudan) than she would someone from Macedonia. Try actually knowing things before coming on to The Root to fart out a “Well

Arabs didn’t arrive in Egypt until the mid 600s. So explain how Nefertiti was Arabic again?

I have had the pleasure of crossing paths with Hoda a few times, and there is a genuine glowing, serene grace about her. However, I wish she was able to lividly call out the caucasity of this “researcher” and “archaeologist” on live TV so that ish like this could stop happening. I know she just got a pay raise there,

Someone on twitter said “Nefertiti does not look like she wants to speak to the manager”. Perfect.

Lately there have been representations acknowledging her true Africanness(darker skin), this one seems a step backwards. It’s just amazing how the European mind can’t wrap itself around Ancient Egyptians being African, even when not Nubian. White supremacy is something else!

Hoda Kotb, an actual Egyptian, with Beyonce colored skin, looking at that sculpture of a woman who looks more at home in the kale section of Whole Foods than in Egypt was priceless.

Hoda’s face almost makes this worth it.

1. Diddy I don’t know

Can we rebuke that spirit in the name of Jesus?

That interview was bananas. By the time I got to the Brando stuff I had to stop and get some Dramamine because the room was spinning.
